The following appeared in one Of the
Washington Sunday papers: MY grand
father. Raphael Semmes, was cool,
keen. hard headed business man with
no friIls of any kind, a man OF stern
integrity, unimpeachable honor and
strict truth. but with very little senii'
ment or imagination. When bis eldest,
aud at time only, child (he was after
ward the father of thirteen) was about
year old, business called him from
home. After long, hard ride, be
spent the night with his brother-they
lived some fifty miles apart. During
the night his brother was awakened by
his cries and groans. de told MS
brother he had dreadful dream. Il
saw my little girl, Anna Marie, lying
dead in her crib, and clasped IN her
hands. on her breast, was little BLACK
cruci6x, that hangs high over her head.
she said: Il will die on the third gay

know what hour, Aud although she
can't talk or even stand alone, 1t all
seemed natural in my dream" His
brother tried to reassure him, saying:
DWELL, this is only April, anyhow, and
I EXPECT it was caused by the good old
MARYLAND ham you ate for supper. /"
Twice be fell asleep, and each time the
child appeared and spoke the same
words. He finally arose, and, after
writing the date and putting it carefully
in his brothers Bible, saddled his horse
aud rode home just as day was breaking.
He found the child in perfect health,
and not wishing to worry my grand
mother (who had a high strung magma

wrote the date in the family Bible. On
the Sd Of June he did not leave the
house though the child was apparently

What an Alderman is supposed to
know.

A member OF the common council
is SUPP osed to know: Whether it is
wise TO embark on municipal cleo
trio lighting scheme.
What is the probable cost of new
electric lighting plant, and what it
can be operated for.
Whether the present plant is
worth what the company asks for it.
What is the most improved way Of
operating fire alarm system.
How wide should the streets be
and how much grading The city
should do for property owners.
What is the best material for
curling. cement or stone or some
thing else.
How long contract should be
given the Electric Light and Power
Co. and at what price.
The probable expense of the diff
ferent departments of. the city gov
eminent during the year.
What should be the tax rate the
tax levy, etc.
How much it costs to run the
schools, the library, etc.
A hundred other things the
average alderman is supposed to
know and be able to tell those who
ask him. If he does not know then
he is blamed for being incompetent.
This they must know just for the
sake of being city father, they get
no salary, they even get no thanks
but are abused, cursed and vilifed
just because they are alderman. Be
cause they choose to serve the peo-
pie without pay.

Advice to Shopnaps

1t is not to early to talk about
early shoppin G. It is a common
practice to ask people to shop
early in order to save wear and
tear on clerks, especially woman
clerks.
That is all right and humane
and kind.
But the main poipt is the one
of self-interest.
Nine enths Of the goods you
want for holiday purposes are
IN the stores now.
You can find everything your
heart could desire or your means
cover on counters and shelves.
You can find competent clerks
who are not to busy to devote
time to you. You can shop
quietly and calmly, which is
good for the nerves.
There is another item. It is
often easier to purchase S. worth
of holiday goods each week for
four weeks than it is to save the
money for a 500 splurge in a
single shopping trip.
Good advice is wasted on some
folks but there are enough peo-
pie who desire to avoid shopping
trials. and who are grateful
when their memories are logged,
to make it worth while to giveI
this timely advice.
