Darling Dawes Death.

Dave jefferson Arnold, the little son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. r. Arnold, died Of congestive chill at
the home of his parents, near Buckhouse, on the
18th inst; aged years, months and 10 days.
He was so devoted to his father and
mother, and also to his teacher. He
was child of free, loving disposition.
How feeble are words to carry conso-
lation to hearts bere Aved of loved son
"a tender, clinging kine interviewer in
sweet memories from the hour the
angels first gave him to their home-a
gentle spirit of light that fitted in and
out like CLEAN of sunshine. No one
can fill his place in the vacant chair;
no one can take his place in our hearts.
And we would not have the void filled
even if we could.
1t will be sacred thought in all the
years to come to parents and friends
that he shed radiance in the home as
long as he lived. 1t will be blessed
recollection that he grew up to love and
be loved by those who will ever cherish
his memory so tenderly. It is in such
an hour as this that hope arises in the
human breast and we rest our faith in
the belief that our darling is not dead
he has only gone from us for little
while, out among the angels. Over the
river he has gone, only a little in ad-
vance OF us. Some one must go first

AN OLD STORY.
BY RENrCE RADCLIFFE.

A mother toiled the years wore on
For her daughters, young and fair,
And she ever would think, as mothers will,
OF the garments that they should wear
Linen and lawn, muslin and lace,
Rainbow tnts in every shining fold,
Fresh and new from her patient hands
While her gowns were shabby and old.
And they never noted her hating step,
The faded cheeks and lines of care,
For each one thought of her own sweet self
And the dresses that she should wear;
And each one studied her own fair face,
Meath chestnut waves of golden curls,
And each one followed her own gay will
They were just like other girls.
But sad day came, and the mother slept
Her last, long sleep, as mothers will;
With strange, wan smile on her careworn face,
And the toil-stained hands were still.
Then they bought her shroud of costly silk,
With trimmings of lace, dainty and rare,
They placed on her breast her favorite flower
But she did not know it was there.
They wept bitter tears in that darkened room;
Each heart athrob with remorseful distress.
They pressed passionate kisses on cheek and brow,
But she never felt caress.

NO FIRE STATION NOW.
People in Southwest Portion of To-

The ways and means committee of
the council was unable to act upon the

mittee had the matter in charge for
while but it was finally referred back
to the council and there left on file.
The people in the Fifth ward will

council meeting nrfor action. 1t is

been made in. the past a deferring of

when the copy is ready for the printer
and the remaining amount when all
the work of proof reading the book
and correcting the index shall have

The matter of printing the ordi-

the committee should recommend to

The rest of the business referred to
the committee was kept on file until
the new administration should come
in and a new committee be appointed.
The public building committee en-
deavored to settle uoon a recon-

fees to the city building was also dis

of the majority of the committee that

its extra rooms on the second floor for
that purpose.

EMPLOYEES ROBBED IT.

There was no demonstration on the
part of those gathered about the build
ing. The Individual deposits amounted
to 1914, 000 While the directors are re-
ticent it is known that the closing of
the institution resulted from defalca-

1T ISN'T POLITICAL.
John Royce's Comment on Appoint
ment as Bank Commissioner.

John O. Royce, the newly appointed
bank commissioners, says editorially
in his paper, the Phillipsburg Dis
patch, this week, that the Office to
which he has been appointed is not a
political one, and that it shall net be
used politically, but that he will en-
deavor to make good not only with
his friends, but with his enemies as:
well. Mr. Royce says:
THE editor of this paper was on
saturday of last week, appointed state
w. Hoch. The appointment is for
four years and the term begins on
Saturday of this week, April 1st.
1T is not for us to speak of the
good qualities of the appOintee, but it
IS great pleasure for US to speak OF
the very strong friendship and cour-
age which caused the governor to
make this appointment.
I'VE regard this as the best az
pointment in the gift of the governor
and words fail to express our graft
tude to the big hearted true friend
who has brought such great happi-
ness to our home.
Because John BreidenthaI held
this office eight years while he was
chairman of the state Populist COM
mittee, and Morton Albaugh held il
four years while he was chairman of
the Republican state central COM
mittee, it has become to be looked
upon as the great political Office of the
state. and with this feeling quite pre-
that the men who had drafted Mr.
Hoch for governor and who in politics
are known as boss busters should
want one of their number to fill this
office. The Office is, however, not
political one and does not deal in
politics in even the slightest degree,
and Mr.. Hoch did not feel that he was
doing violence to that faction of the
party by appointing a personal friend
to this position
There was of course some consfd-
cradle opposition to our appOintn ent-
Some of it was deserved, but much Of
the opposition came from entire
strangers who were misinformed by
men VINO sought our defeat only for
political reasons. We hope to be able
to so conduct the affairs of this great
department of the state administra-
ton. as to not only convince these de-
ceived persons, but also to agreeablV
surprise and satisfy those who opposed
US for political reasons. This will be
our one great hope and desire and in
our effort to give a good clean admin
istration, we ask the cooperation of
the bankers of the state. We shall
enter upon the discharge of the duties

ANGRY BULL ON BROADWAY.
Tackles Everything Red in Sight and
Chases GothaIn's Inhabitants.

New York, March 31-Mrs. w H.
Carter, sister OF Mrs. E. Rawls Reader,
the diplomat and authority on high fin
ance, who was unfortunate in San Do
mingo. had a narrow escape from death,
when maddened bull attacked her at
Thirty-fourth street and Third avenue
and tore rents in her gown. The gown
was red, the bull noted that fact and
forcibly registered his objection.
The bull, which was of the long horn
ed variety, began his capers a Forty
second street and Broadway, when he
objected to the color scheme presented
by negro theater doorman, with a
fancy uniform. He struck the man a
glancing blow. Bruised, battered, and
dirty, the latter fled.
With a thirst for red things fully pos
sessing him, the animal next snorted
and stamped all over the block. while a
crowd of several hundred persons look
ed on at discreet distance.
He took in the Tenderloin thoroughly
without molestation, wild shouting by
the following crowd preventing MIN on
several occasions from entering several
department store windows. Scores of
women shoppers had narrow escapes.
After dashing through Eighth avenue
to Forty-second street, and through
that crowded thoroughfare to Park ave
nue., and thence down Park avenue to
Thirty-fourth street, the bull finally
plunged into Third avenue, where he
fiercely charged the elevated railroad
Things along Third avenue evidently
looked .prosaic to the bull, because two
blocks down he suddenly dashed east
toward the river. Straight into a lum-
Der yard he tore, while men ran to
cover and horses stood on their hind
legs.
out in the middle Of the East river a
ledge of rocks held up beckoning ing
er in the shape of a steel pole with a
red lantern The bull plunged into. the
stream without ceremony and swan
fercely in the swift current He struck
the rocks about 2 o'clock and stuck
there, and the river front was soon
lined with a crowd of at least 1,eVo per
sons.

was leading him by a rope Wnen ne

WHERE is WELLS.
Lincoln Victim in smedIey Case Has
Disappeared.

Lincoln. Neb., March 31.-Denver was
asking last night Where did Joseph
Wells go when he left Denver this
morning." Lincoln could not answer
the query. The report from Denver
early yesterday morning indicated that
he was on the way to this city. Later
a report came that he had made a
Geint of boarding a train for Lincoln
train for the west The first telegram
said that Mr.. and Mrs. Smedley had ar
rived in Denver careworn and worried.
They declined to talk" it was said,
"and Immediately after breakfast de-
parted for an automobile ride
A telegram to the Journal late last
evening from Denver said.
No trace of route taken by Wells
except it is known that the SmedleyS
bought tickets for Salt Lake City. He
may be going there with them"
It was believed yesterday that Wells
would return on Rock Island No. AZ,
due in Lincoln at 2:14 this morning. No.
a was reported three and a half hours
late at midnight If he arrived on any
of the evening trains from the west his
presence in the city was not made
County Attorney Caldwell said yes
terday that he was confident that Mr..
Wells will be here on April 10. but he
said if he is not here another cOntinu-
ance will be taken and an effort will be
made to secure his return. He was
asked what he will do when Mr.. Wells
returns He smiled as he said that ne
did not care to publish his plans in adj
vance but that surprises might be
awaiting that gentleman 1t is known
that Mr.. Caldwell is not feeling the
best over the turn the case has taken
and the inference thrown out that his
office has been used as a collecting
agency.
IF I should meet Mr.. Wells on the
street" said Sheriff Ress. Il would take
him before the county attorney I have
no papers to serve on him but under
stand Mr.. Caldwell wants to see him."

DEER IN CONNECTICUT HILLS.
So Plentiful That Trains and Dogs Are
killing Them.

Winsted, Conn, March 31-Deer
are so plentiful in the Litchfield and
Berkshire hills that hardly a day
passes when one is not killed by a
train, dogs, or hunters.
A young doe, weighing lis pounds.
was struck by an express on the
Berkshire division of the New York &
New Haven railroad at Cornwall,
Thursday, and thrown down an en-
bankment into a brook. The animal
got up and ran, but dropped dead in
its tracks after going short distance.
E. R. Lorraine. of Canaan, a con-
tractor, today counted thirteen in one
herd The severe winter and deep
snow in the woods are believed to have
driven the animals nearer populated
sections There is a heavy penalty for
killing a deer in this state.
