We have no bird in the north which
can get off as fine a concert pro
gramme as can the hooking bird of the
south at midnight, when the moon is
at full. Perched in the top of some
magnolia or gum tree, he will make
the night echo with his weird, wild mu
sic by the hour together.

A few years have entirely changed
the appearance of all the vast prairie
regions of the west. The groves have
destroyed the ocean-like look Of these

The trouble is that the hired man
does not intend to remain hired man.
He is figuring to boss somebody him
self as soon as he can. And the hired
girl does not intend to remain hired
girl, only till the chance comes when
she will want one herself.

The Princeton Democrat says:
Second Baseman McAndrews and
Pitcher Witt, formerly of the Vim
Genes team. purchased their release
from the local management Tuesday
and left for Dubuque, Ia, where
hey have been given a place on the
team at that place. These men
were so certain that the Kitty would
go up that they figured on getting a
new place and accepted advance
money from the Dubuque manage

their release after II had been decid-
ed to continue the Kitty league for a

Prof. c. NJ. Leib. superintendent

Prof. Leib and Mr.. Rose secured
an expert boatman who loved his

No EVIDENCE
Heard in the Sanitary officer Case
Last Night.

A meeting of the joint sanitary
committee of the general council was
held last night to investigate the
charges against Sanitary Inspector
Brush, but owing TO the fact that no
charges had ever cen preferred in
writing and there was no one to tes-
tify against the accused the meeting
adjourned without doing anything
more than referring the matter to
the board of health to make specific
charges in writing.
The charges were first preferred
by President Pendley of the board OF
health. 1t then became the duty of
the mayor to prefer formal charges,
as he did in the Evitts case before
the board of aldermen, but 1t was new
er done. and as a result when the
mayor called a meeting of the com
mittee last night there was nothing
before It, and DR.. Pendley was not
present.
The charges will now have to be
preferred in writing and investigat'
ed, II is supposed. by the board OF
aldermen and not by the sanitary
committee. Members of the council
have no authority TO try charges
against city officials. The members
of the joint sanitary committee are:
Aldermen Orme. Farley and Durrett
and Councilmen McBroom, ellison
and Barnett.
