Nantueket,s Pond Filled up.

A party of ladies and gentlemen
were being driven about the island
of Nantucket, and were viewing the
many places of interest. Their driver
and guide was "Cap'n Bill" a relic
Of the prosperous maritime days of
this community, and town character.
After the party had covered the
course over which travellers on a brief
sojourn are always conducted, one of
the ladies requested that the drive
be made to "Sheep pond" which she
explained she had heard mentioned
by visitors to the island as the place
where the native used to wash the
wool on their sheep. The aged driye
was evidently perplexed for moment
as to the location of this interesting
sheet of water. He then drove to a
neighboring hill and stopped his
horses.
Here it is" he said, with a com.
prehensive wave of his hand.
81 don't see any water" was the
general exclamation.
NO." replied "Cap'n Bill" gravely,
but with twinkle in his eye, you
see, the sheep wuz so dirty that the
blooming pond got filled up"

Evangelist crossIy,s olives.

Robert Grossly, twenty years ago
well known as an evangelist, once
had occasion to visit Boston. His
natural habit of frugality led him to
cheap eating house at noon. There
was dish of olives on the table, in.
tended for a gratuitous nibble. Mr..
Grossly was fond of olives and par
took of them freely.
An Irish laborer who had seated
himself at the same table, opposite
the evangelist, observed with what
relish the latter consumed the little
green plums." Taking one from the
dish, which Mr.. Grossly courteously
moved toward him, he put his teeth
into the fruit, and look of surprise
overspread his features at the 1nex.
pected taste.
Looking at the olive critically. he
remarked, as he lay it down: by
jiggers, but that one was rotten"
Twice, and thrice, he made effort,
with the same result. Sitting back
in his chair, he regarded the evan
gelist earnestly a moment, and tken
said: do We eat thin because We
like thim?"
Eyes, my dear man. replied Mr..
Grossly.
Quick and decisive came: eyer a
liar!"

1t seems that that ''deicit," in the
finances of the State University con-
corning which so much has been
said, was no deficit, according to the
reiterated statement of President
Van Hise, who asserts that there
will be surplus of funds at the end
of the year. A misconception has
arisen in regard to the finances of
the University from the fact that the
institution has been accustomed to
draw on the trust funds in the early
winter in anticipation of its income
which is available in February. In
fact the funds of the University are
sufficient for its needs but as these
funds come to it at the middle of the
year instead of at the beginning the
authorities are permitted by law to
make use of money not otherwise
appropriated from the trust and gen
eral funds, the amounts paid back
when the University appropriations
are paid.

Rather Apt Comparison.

The usual crowd gathered on the
lake front the other day to watch the
men engaged in sinking piles and pre-
pairing for the fill that is to be made.
One after another the tall shafts of
wood were swung into position and
after some careful manipulation low
cred into the ground point downward.
Among the interested group were
several Irishmen, who had watched
the proceedings for probably a half
hour. They had INDUCED in various
side remarks on the manner in which
the work was progressing and seem
ed skeptical as to the skill of the
men performing the undertaking.
Just then the foreman of the gang
came close to the Irishman and stood
directing the movements of the labor
ers. He Immediately was the butt of
some good-natured jests,. to which for
some time he gave reply for reply.
why, that amt no work at ALL"
called one Irishman 1--WE done more
hard work in one hour than you have
ever done in yonr life."
Il guess that's right, but in THIS
use head work." replied the foreman,
tartly.
"Humph, that's nothing" grunted
the Irishman; $50 does woodpeck-
er."-Chicago Chronicle.

HIS THOUGHTS WERE FAR OFF
Absent Minded Professor Forgot His
Social ENGAGEMENT.

~S'Ni -HSGSShh~h@
Oliver PEBBLES Jenkins of Stanford
university is head professor OF the
department of zoology. He is sci
enlist, and therefore a deep thinker.
and consequently often preoccupied
and absent minded. His most recent
adventure attributable to his absent
minded propensities is at present fur
nishing much amusement for the fac
ulty.
He was reading one evening after
dinner when his wife approached and
touching him on the shoulder, re-
marked softly: OLIVER, Mr.. and Mrs.
Branner are coming over this evening,
so just go up stairs and put on your
other coat"
The quiet little professor complied
without a murmur. An hour later,
when the visitors had been in the
house some time, the hostess excused
herself for moment and slipped up
stairs to see what detained DR.. Jenk-
ms. She found him in bed calmly
sleeping.
ooh, to be sure, the Branners," he
said when she awakened him. I'll
be right down. I guess I was little
absent minded. I must have forgot

moved my coat, for kept right on un.

Making an Audience Laugh.

am glad there is no recipe for max
ing an audience laugh. We should
thank heaven that it is so. There are
enough people trying it now, but
think of the hordes that would des-
cend on the unsuspecting public If
some one were able to tell how in
few comprehensive lines. Either
one is born with the power to make
others laugh or he is not; there is no
learning how unless you have the gift.
Some one has said that to make au-
dierces really laugh you must feel
the laugh yourself-must be moved
by the humor of the lines or of the
situation. To ny mind that is not so.
Try saying the same line and making
the same gesture at exactly the same
place every night for six months and
see just how much you are moved
by the humor 1t is easier, far easier,
to be moved by a pathetic situation
each night than it is to feel like laugh
ing. An American audience naturally
likes the American type of humor-
where little is said and great deal
is left to the imagination. So, to
my mind, it is best that the lines you
speak shall be really humorous, in
that they suggest some exceedingly
funny situation or thought. BIt-and
here is the secret-before you speak
them you must really understand
them and know what line of thought
causes them to be spoken. If you can
do this you can communicate their
humor-David Warfield in Success
Magazine.

VALUABLE FOR FIRE FIGHTERS.
Portable Breathing Apparatus an In
vention of Much Merit.

NCIiltOu VI MQCu MSTIls
In Europe a respiratory and life
saving apparatus has been used with
considerable success by miners, fire.
men and others, who are required to
penetrate mines or apartments that
are filed with smoke or unbreathable
gases, especially after accidents such
as explosions. With this apparatus
sufficient air and oxygen are carried
to support respiration for two hours,
even while the individual is working.
The apparatus consists of mask or
helmet, which completely covers the
face, but exposes the ears, so that
while the eyes of the wearer are pro-
tected from the smoke he can hear
distinctly.
There are connected with the mask
two rubber bags-one for the exhaled
air and the other connected with the
oxygen and the regenerated air. The
former is contained in steel cylinders,
and by means of proper reducing
valves acts on the air after the car
bonic acid which has been exhaled is
absorbed by granulated potash. The
instrument weighs about twenty-eight
pounds, but is sure in its action, and
has been used successfully by the
Paris fire department, where, in adj
dition, portable electric lights with
flexible cables form a part of the
equipment, and thus allow firemen to
penetrate dark and smoky rooms and
cellars to save life or cut OF gas or
electricity, or perform some other use
full duties. In mines the apparatus
is valuable in case of accidents due to
fire-damp or explosion, and it is COM
ing into extensive use for this pur-
pose.-Montreal Herald

The City In 1886
CFRoM THE JOURNAL Fills. JAN :. 1850

/ 1t will be of interest to many of
the people here, we 'hink, to recall
the condition of the cit5 20 years
ago and to recite the principal feat
ures of history current in the COM
munity at that time.
River Falls was organized as a
city April 7, 1885, DR.. A. D. An
drews having been elected mayor
on that date, with w. w. Wads-
worth, S. M. Rosenquist, R. N. Jen-
son and Leonard Stiles, aldermen.
The state census was taken soon af-
ter the organization of the city,
showing the number of people with
in the city limits to be 1,726-841
males and 885 females.
For several years previous to this
time the "Freeport Railway"
scheme was agitated and a consid-
cradle amount of money was ad-
vanced by the citizens of this COM
munity to promote the building of
the road-to no purpose.
1t is seen from the advertising
columns of the Journal of 1886 that
few business firms operating in the
city at that time are in business
now. r. N. Jensen was conducting
genearl store at that time and A.
! w. Lund conducted a blacksmith
and wagon shop; r. S. Freeman
was in the drug business and the
Levings Sisters kept book store.
These, we believe, are the only
firms that were then in business
that have continued up to the pres
ent time. Of other firms in bust
ness then were, ]. III. Lord & Son,
G l. APP Roberts and Fred Mucken-
hansen, general stores; John Weis-
end, clothing; Wadsworth & Wiger,
boots and shoes; D. Kribbs and S.
D. Dodge & Son. hardware; H. G.
Haven, furniture; Edsall Bros. and
Si,er &, Travis, drugs.
The physicians here then were
Drs. Ballard, Matchan, Gould and
Bourn.
DR.. Andrews, mayor of the city
and resident regent of the Normal
school, died July %, 1905, and was
succeeded as mayor by ]. D. Put
nam and as regent by c. V. Guy.
w. D. Parker was president of
the Normal school and Chas. Fret
dell principal Of the public schools,
while John A. Murphy was county
superintendent.
In the JOURNAL of Jan. 7, 1886
among the items in the council pro-
ceedings is the passage of the
wood measuring ordinance. e."
which, on account of it's unpopular
