In Grand Rapids This Year,
Committee Are Now Perfectinf
Plans Tor a Grand, Good Time.

On NEXT Tuesday, June q, the Re-
PORTER will publish the program for
the celebration to be held in Grand
Rapids, Jn1y 4, and the program will
be small affair compared to the
celebration. The celebration held in
our city last 4th of July will long be
remembered as one of the. cleanest
and best managed in Central Wiscon-
sin and we will meet with hearty
support when we state that Grand
Rapids Isl taking no step backward.
The committees who are not only
planning this program, but will execute
the same, are not men who travel On a
half fair ticket or who will accept OF
a half yotein a convention. In fact
they do nothing by halves and we are
entirely justified in expecting and
advertising a first-class entertainment
for the. entire day.

1t is common mistake that to
worry hard is to work hard. The way
to succeed in work is not to worry;
the way to fail is to worry and not to
work. The way to neither succeed
nor fail is to both work and worry;
that is the way to kill yourselves.

How to do it this Fall.

The Wichita Eagle points out that
tile fellows who don't vof e tile Repub-
lican ticket will have to keep their
eyes skinned to keep up with the
candidates of their choice. For in
itance: The average fusioniSt. under
the Kansas election law. will have to
stand on his head when on election
day he finds himself alone with his
God and his ticket to mark If he is
a Populist, he will have to cross the
names of the electors on the Watson
ticket. He will then turn it around
and cross the names for state officers
on the Democratic ticket. Before
getting back on his feet he will then
turn the ballot upside down and cross
the name of Robinson. Republican
nominee for railroad commissioner,
who the two fusion conventions en-
dorsed and agreed to vote for. Re-
gaining his upright position and find
ing himself on his feet he will then
discover that he hasn't voted the
county ticket at all, nor for or against
either of the proposed constitutional
amendments. He will also discover
that he has occupied all the time the
law allows him in the booth and that
he has spoiled his ballot, or if he does
not discover it the judges Will and
throw it out when they come to count.
| All the straight Republican will
have to do is to put in his single cross
in the circle at the head of the
straight Repu blican ticket, and then,
having briefly closed is eyes and
| thanked God that he was still in his
right mind, hand the ballot straight
back to the judge of election.

In despair of any answer she turned
away at last and lay shivering upon
her bed The reaction was intense.
She was punished, she thought, for her
vain ambitions. She determined. if it
were possible. to quit the house to-mor-
row. And then, she heard her own
name. The Doctor called her from the
lawn beneath her window. She ms
wered him at once. for she was glad to
hear his voice.
What is it-who is there?'
ut is 1, Esther. Please dress and
come down to me. 1 see you cannot
sleep-it is imprudent to stand at the
window after rain
She knew, then, that she had not es-
capped detection; and, greatly hoping
that he would be able to calm her
shattered nerves and to offer her some
reassuring explanation. Esther dressed
herself quickly and went down into the
hall. 1t was with no little hesitation
that she stood upon the threshold of
scene of which every detail still haunt
ed her. She feared that she would
never have the courage to approach
that Place of death or even to look upon
it coIlectedly. When. at length. she
summoned her courage to her and
opened the long window giving upon
the lawn, she discovered that the Doc
tor was alone and that the others had
vanished. Not a trace remained Of
deed or actors. Doctor Xavier himself
smoked a cigar with apparent non
chalance
Come he said, approaching her di-
rectly. II wish to talk to you. 1t shall
be in your own room, Esther. The
night air is not good for US. You
should have put shawl about your
head
Esther was too much interested to
answer him, and she followed timidly
at his side while he crossed the lawn
and lighted silver lamp in her bou-
doir. Here everything was as she had
left it but a few hours ago. Her own
sketches lay untouched upon the table:
the books she had been reading were
still open. The fountain splashed al
most with a weird sound in the silence
of the night. One fact. however, per-
mitted Esther to form an instant con-
clusion as to the events which had so
greatly agitated her. The door between
her own room and the Doctors study
was no longer locked as it had been
during his absence. Evidently some
one had entered her BOULDER and had
forgotten to close the door upon 1eav-
ing. 1t now stood so much open that

She read the letter twice, and even
then was scarcely enlightened. Julia
spoke Of grave events, which, for the
moment had compelled her to leave
London. Her brother. she said, was
greatly occupied by the affairs of his
own country She had hoped that he
had done with them forever: but new
circumstances had arisen, and they
claimed his attention. Fer herself she

Esther read the letter with eager in

which was new to- her. She mad IN
derstood the Doctors name to be sim

now she remembered that he was a
Spaniard by birth and probably the de-
scendant Of some old Spanish family OF
note. In this respect Julia's letter was
not unsatisfactory There was SO much
TO do. so many surprises awaited her
daily in that house Of wonders, that
she grasped at any straw Of argument
which would permit her-to remain there
with confidence. Each day, in the
early morning, she went to the bath as
