REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

[From the New York Press.1
A man is brave when he will admit he
is afraid to argue with his wife.
The older a joke is the younger is
the fellow who gets it of for something
new.
1t is easier to get engaged than d.
vorced, and the expense is about a
stand off.
A man stands a very good chance
with a girl if he can get all her family
to oppose the match.
A woman can have a good time think

him as a political leader.
A girl is so deceitful she can act as
if open work stockings kept her feet
warmer than any other kind.
After a man has worked hard to
make some money he can work twice as
hard to keep people from getting it
away from him.
Some men are so unlucky in money
matters that when they get a f1ve-dol-
lar gold piece in their change for a
copper they go and put it out again
for the same thing.

TELEPHONE POLE ON FIRE.
How the Brave Firemen Saved the
Day.

There was a fire on Kansas avenue
this morning, about midway of the
block between Seventh and Eighth. On
the east side of the street one of the
big poles carrying hundreds of Western
Union wires was afire, and smoking
fiercely.
Now a telephone pole is a queer thing
to catch fire. 1t becomes still more of
a curiosity when the pole is covered
with sheet iron about a third of the way
up, and the smoke is pouring out
through the spike holes in the iron. 1t
seems that the wood under the sheet
iron was dry and rotten. Somebody had
evidently Scraped the hot ashes off his
cigar into one of the spike holes. There
were holes enough in the iron, and
space enough back of it to give a fine
draft, and in few minutes the pole
was smoking like a volcano out of ev-
cry spike hole.
Then the brave fire ladies came to
the rescue. Capt. Robinson from head
quarters responded to the call of duty.
Strange to say, the aerial truck was not
called out. Capt. Robinson with ham
mer and cold chisel managed to rip
q hole in the sheet iron above the fire.
and then a bucketful of water put an
end to the affair. The telephone pole
was saved. Damage, about 80 cents.

DIDN'T FUMuGATE SCHOOL.
Parents Excited Because of a Death
From Diphtheria.

People who send children to Lincoln
school are considerably agitated by the
neglect of the board of health to have
Lincoln school fumigated for diphthe-
ria, and some of the anxious parents
called up the State Journal Office to-
day to see what they ought to do about
it. They stated that they had called
up the board Of health and the board
of education, and were unable to get
any satisfaction about the case.
The facts are these. Maggie Brady,
the 10-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Brady who live at 2o8 Kansas
avenue, attended Lincoln school and
was taken sick a few days ago No
doctor was called until Friday morn
ing, and when the doctor returned Fri
day afternoon, the child was dead. The
case was said to be one of "black
diphtheria." There are no other chill

critics of the city came to the conclu-
sion. apparently, that it would do no
good to fumigate Lincoln school They

make hard fight to secure a judicial
dissolution of the injunction granted
by q lower federal court forbidding
them to act in concert in controlling
the price of the meat supply of the
American people. There seems to be
little doubt that they have managed
to evade this decree for all practical
purposes, or that their policy in its
main essentials has remained the same
since the courts mandate was given
out. Nevertheless, there may be I'M
pleasant possibilities, if government
agents should discover convincing legal
evidence that the judicial order has
been violated, and if the trust could
get the injunction set aside it might
proceed with less necessity for caution.
