Fireman's Dance.

A meeting of the Fire Depart
ment was held Wednesday even
ing in which it was decided to
hold an old fashioned freman's
dance. Time fixed was Feb. 90,
1906. Place, the opera house.
The object is first to promote
sociability among the members
of the Fire Department and get
them better acquainted with each
other and with the public in gen
eral. Second to start a fund TO
be known as a Fireman's Relief
Fund.
Many fremen have recognized
for some years that in case of the
injury or, death of a comrade
there is no fund that can be
drawn on for him or his family's
relief. No fund held by the city
council is in an y way available.
Most of the firemen are compar-
atively poor men, and if injured
in the discharge of their duty
must needs suffer. A relief fund
to give them aid seems to be
good thing to have.
A committee of arrangements
was appointed who will give all
the opportunity to secure tickets
to this Ball.

When steam engines were en-
ployed to drive mills, pumps and
other machinery which had been
previously driven by horses, it
was natural to attempt to express
the work done by them in terms
of the working power of the
horse.
James Watt the first TO define
the unit of horsepower, which by
experiment he found to be 49,
600 foot pounds a minute. In
other words, a one horsepower
engine would raise $4,000 pounds
one foot every minute, and so on
proportionally to the number of
"horsepowers" indicated by the
engine.
He arrived at this conclusion
by observing the work done by
heavy dray horses in breweries
working eight hours daily and
found that horse going at the
rate of two miles and half an
hour could raise a weight of $50
pounds by rope led over a pull
ley, which is equal to $4,000
pounds raised one foot in one
minute.
Watt, for the credit of his en-
gines, selected horses of more
than average power.-Clipping.

An Ever-Changing Senate.

Kentucky has awarded Joseph
c. S. Blackburn's twenty years of
faithful endeavor to be on all
sides of every public question by
terminating his political career.
In point of service Mr.. Blackburn
could not be called one of the
veterans of the United States
Senate. He took his seat on the
day that Grover Cleveland was
first inaugurated President of the
United States. Yet it is a curious
fact that only ten of the men who
became Senator Blackburn's COL
leagues on March 4, 1885, are sit
ting in the Senate today John
T. Morgan of Alabama, James H.
Berry of Arkansas, Henry NJ.
Teller of Colorado, Shelby M.
Cmllom of Illinois, William B.
Allison of Iowa, Eugene Hale and
William P. Frye of Maine, Ar
thur P. German of MARYLAND,
Nelson w. Aldrich of Rhode Is
land and John c. Spooner of Wis
consin. Of these neither Spooner
nor German nor Blackburn has
served continuously, and Teller,
who was a Republican, has be-
come a Democrat.
When Blackburn took his seat
Delaware was represented by
George Gray and Eli Salisbury !;
John A. Logan was Mr.. Cullom's
colleague from Illinois; John ].
colleague from Illinois; John ].
Ingalls, was at the height of his
brilliant career; George F. Hoar
and Henry Dawes were the SEN
ators from Massachusetts,; Will
liam M. Evarts was a senator
from New York; Wade Hampton
and Matthew c. Butler represent
ed South Carolina; George F. Ed
munds and Justin S. Morrill, rep
resented Vermont; John Sher-
man, Benjamin Harrison, Daniel
w. VOORHEES,, Zebulon Vance and
George c. Vest were senator's of
great influence.
The Senate is an ever-changing
body, and the issues which these
men battled over are practically
disposed of. Two decades bring
a new generation, which has
crept softly and silently into pow
er and brought its own political
issues along, leaving the dead
past alone with its dead.
Indiana has since added to that
galaxy Of brilliant names, those
of Fairbanks, Beveridge and
Hemenway of whom we are all
equally proud.

Take Time to Be Loving.

Few OF us mean to hide our
love from the children or hus.
band. 1t is only because we are
so busy-so busy. We must dc
everything in the very quickest
way, and at the same time keep
planning and thinking of how al
those other things are to be done
and so love is crowded out.
sometimes wonder, dear moth
ers, IT we are not nearly all max
ing a mistake-if it would not be
better to let the children's clothes
be not not quite so fine, the din
ner plainer-yes, if need be, even
the sitting-room table go some
day undusted; but SO make time
for the loving word and smile,
the gentle, thoughtful deed, the
lingering touch and caress, the
something that will show the love
IN our hearts. Never a day passes
but each one of us is near some
one who is starving-not for food
nor wealth, nor fame, but for
love. Even the little children in
our homes are hungering for the
loving word and smile. If we
can but take time to give these
they will be remembered long af-
ter our elaborate dinners. our
stylish dresses, our spotless hous-
es, are forgotten.
Let us think the matter over
carefully and look at it squarely.
Do we, because of over-much
sweeping and busting in our
homes, because of magnifying
the Importance of having each
thing always in its proper place:
and above all, of keeping the
house nice for strangers to see
do we in any way lessen the Joy
for any of the dear ones in the
home? Do we bake and dust and
work to keep house" for strang-
ers and let "our own" go home
less? For where love is not up
permost, there can be no home.
only house.-Sabbath Reading.
