RIVAL TRADESMEN
By George B. Griffith

w army suffered much from the
heat and drouth The water from the
Rio Grande, though abundant, was not
pa1atable, and all kinds of liquors were at
a premium A certain hoary-headed
Yankee by some means Procured barrel
of cider, and with this he determined to
set up business" He ran together
loose canvas shed, then tapped his barrel,
and proceeded at once to retail his cider
at two dimes glass. Customers focked
by dozens, and the Yankee was making
a fortune at stride.
Some of his patrons complained that
two dimes a glass was an outrageous
price; but the times were hard as well as
hot, whisky was scarce, the water bad,
the retailers conscience easy-he had all
the cider in the market, and really could
not sell cheaper" For several hours the
Yankee was as popular as an army pay
master; crowds filled his shanty; his cider
went off rapidly; and the deep pockets
of his short-legged pantaloons contained
silver enough to start free bank IN
Indiana But the tide of fortune, I'M
fortunately, began to end before the cider
was half sold; his patrons gradually fell
off, and by the middle of the afternoon
Jonathan was left alone on his barrel, to
white and cogitate upon the instability
of trade.
Toward evening a customer appeared
in the tent, and called for glass of cider.
The retailer fastened to draw the desired
potation The solemn-faced customer,
after deliberately draining his glass, took
out his well-worn pocketbook, and in
quired the price.
1.-TWO Dimes" said the greedy Yam
kee.
1.-TWO WHAT" exclaimed the Gus
toner
1.-TWO Dimes coolly replied Jonathan,
shifting his quid of sweet tobacco.
why" snarled the thirsty customer,
81 can get just as good cider here as
that for five cents a glass"
mo, you can't" drawled the un-
ruffled Yankee. There amt pint of
cider 'cept what I've got in that barrel
this side of Orleans.
81 know better" retorted the aroused
purchaser Il bought glass of apple
juice not an hour ago, and paid only five
cents for it
I'D like to know where?" inquired the
Yankee.
why, close by here somewhere-just
back of your place, rejoined the solemn
visaged customer.
I'm bet you ten drinks you didn't"
said the cider-seller with real warmth,
g. and we'll go right around and see.''
'DoneI' responded the stalwart Gus
toner, and off they started.
Sure enough, they found another estab-
lishment in full clash. A second wide
awake Yankee had rugged an awning like
the first Yankees shed, and tapped the
rear end of the aforesaid cider barrel
through the canvas, and was retailing it
quietly at five cents glass to a rush of
customers.

A Friend at Court
By Hate NJ. Cleary

"What can | do with that boy?" she
cried;
He plays and forgets to study.
Five years old But he tears his clothes,
And gets his shoes all muddy.
" He brings in cats and dogs and frogs;
He's late when meals are ready;
I'm really worried half to death
What shall l do with you, Teddy"
The culprit dropped a curly head;
But the little sister, holder,
Laid soft, defensive arm
Caressingly round his shoulder.
"You don't know what to do wifi him?"
she said
With love that could never doubt him.
But. oh, supposin we hadn't got Ted?
What-would-yo do-wifout hin?"

TO CHANGE DEPOSITORY BILL
Governor Gooding Suggests Postpone
ment for Two Years

BOISE, Feb. 20.-While there has
been no organized opposition to the
county depository bill, a number of OBJ
)ections have been put forward against
1t. Some Of these seem to be rather
trivial, but there are others which,
While not affecting the merits of the
measure, indicate it might be wiser
and more in accord with a spirit Of
fairness to postpone the time for the
act to take effect.
In talking about the matter Governor
Gooding said some points had been
called to his attention which, he
thought, deserved consideration. 1t
dld not seem to have been generally
understood, he said, in the various
counties that bill Of this kind was
likely to be enacted at the present ses-
s'on. AS result the commissioners
m some cases, had not made such pro-
vision with respect to the Office OF
oouhty treasurer which were necessary

held by the North Pacific Saengerbund
at the Lewis and Clark. exposition on
July 2123 next. During these three
days the sons Of the fatherland will
own the fair and the fair city, and a
great celebration is promised.
A local committee, headed by Paul
Wessinger, is making arrangements for
the saengerfest and the committees
efforts will be centered on German day,

cludes societies in Portland, Tacoma
Seattle. Everett and other cities, and is
in most prosperous condition. All OF

the treasurers could not do the work
for the money. The governor cited one
case in which the salary had been fixed
at $500 year. Heretofore the clerical
work has been done by the bank having
the funds and this salary was fixed in
anticipation OF continuance of the old
order of things.
Taking all these points into consid-
GRAFTON, the governor continued, he
thought it would be fair to make the
measure go into effect two years hence.
Commissioners, in their biennial ad-
1ustment Of salaries, would have an
opportunity to arrange for adequate
pay for their treasurers and make other
arrangements that would be necessary
in consection with the change.
The bill should be passed now, the
governor added, but it seemed to him
that it would be wise to postpone the
time for it to take effect.
