EXIT MILKMAIDS

A sanitary COW mixer has been in
stalled at a dairy farm in Wood
County, which promises to revolution
ize the dairy business. The principle
on which this remarkable machine
works is pneumatic suction, the ma
chine being operated by gasoline en-
CINE. Thus fades the romance that
for so long time has attended the
dairy business. The pink checked,
red Tipped, pearly teethed milkmaid
with the immaculate apron of snowy
wilderness, swinging her milk pail as
she went, must take back seat for
the ravaging hand Of progress. In
stead of her tinkling laugh and rip
pling song we shall hear the chug-chug
Of the gasoline engine as it tirelessly
pants away and furnishes power to
draw the tactical fluid. In future see
that your bottles are labeled "By Ma
chine". Truly. this is an age of won
ders. What with the horseleSs car
rage, wireless telegraph, girlleSs tele-
phone exchanges, milkmaidless cows,
one wonders what new sensation will
be there to Startle him when he opens
his eyes in the morning.
"Where are you going my pretty
maid?'
"I'm going milking, sir, ''she said.
May go too, my pretty maid?"
"YOu may start the engine, SIR"
she said.

break Of Russian fanaticism, coupled
with a horrible massacre. The affair
was arranged by the governor Of
Tomsk, the victims were the Kalmuck

provocation was the strange religious
movement that has grown up among
these nomads.
The police armed hundreds of ortho-

and Bishop Makari blessed the faithful
who were thereupon ordered to hunt
the Kalmucks, whom they caught in
their tents, which afforded them no

@s A 1.&a
1t was stated on good authority
that a suit against the city enjoining
the council from collecting the tax to
pay for street paving would be filed
late this afternoon by J. NJ. Turner.
The papers, it is said, have been under
course of preparation for several days.
While their names will not appear in
the complaint it is understood that Mr..
Turner is being backed up financially
by William s. Goodman, owner of
property in West Main street and T.
G.. Elliott. a local capitalist, who is
heavily interested in Alder and Main
street property. Mr.. Turner's conten-
tions are that the council acted illeg-
ally in several matters pertaining to
the letting Of the paving contract and
in the collection of the tax to pay for
the same. ss2a
