ALL FOND OF HOT WATER.
Customers of a Saloon Develop Sud.
den Abnormal Taste.

Seward Gateway: Hot water was in
great demand in the Board OF Trade
saloon yesterday. Several gentlemen
drank SO much that it had an intoxi-
eating effect. 1t was not because they
had been reading "a dissertation ON
the medicinal virtues of hot water but
because the Jap porter got mixed on
an order given him by Fred Thomas
and mixed whiskey with the water.
In transferring some whiskey to a
new receptacle half gallon was left
over in tin measure. A minute
laters5Themas said to the Jap, "F'ill up
the hot water tank" The mikado's
subject was still thinking about the
surplus Whiskey and it weighed so
heavily upon his mind that he thought
the order must involve the hootch.
With prompt decision, therefore, he
poured the half gallon of whiskey into
the hot water tank and nobody hap
pened to notice what he was doing.
When the discovery was made
Thomas set the tank on a table and
told the boys to go to 1T. In the even
ing he affirmed that he never knew be-
fore how many buns are stuck on hot
water as a steady drink. They Tapped
up several gallons of that nectar as a
farmers boy drinks apple cider, and
in few hours the tank was ready to
receive plain water again.

are many whose income is less than
$1,000, finds it difficult to provide the
necessities and comforts which the
kind of living enforced by the high
standard of the capital enforces.
The tendency of wages and salar-
les is to move upward with the i'm
proved standard of living. The in
come rarely increases, however, with
the increased cost of food and other
expenses, and the sharp rise of prices
of food during the last two or three
years has proven a serious drain
upon those whose wages or salaries
have not begun to move upward. 1t
is not unlikely that before the close
of the present session President
Roosevelt will have something
to say on this subject in a special
message to congress.

increased Cost of Living at Washing
tonMakes 1t Problem Among the
Low saIaried Workers in Washing
ton to Make Both Ends Meet.

Washington, Dec. 19.-The question
OF increase in salaries of public offici-
+ ais, especially senators and represen-
tatiyes, cabinet makers, and along
the list to the minor officials and clerks
in the executive departments, is one
I OF the most interesting that has been
presented to congress during the ses-
| sion thus far The members who
have voted upon it have scarcely done
themselves justice, no matter which
way they voted. The proposal increase
was probably higher than is justified
by the Increased cost of living, omit
ting the details of the proposed
changes in the law relative to mile
age allowances.
That there is genuine and well
based demand for some increase in
pay to officials in Washington has
long been recognized. Such increase
in supreme court judges and other
federal judges were made a year ago.
1t is quite as necessary in other
cases, The increased cost of living
here, as well as throughout the coun-
try, has come to be a serious matter
to all persons of fixed incomes. To
the average clerk in department life
1t is more than serious. 1t amounts
in some instances to almost calam-
lity.
Suggestions of increases in pay to
employees of the government, amount
ing to 15 or 20 per cent, doubtless
are justified by the increased cost of
living, whether one could justify
the proposed increases of all official
salaries or not. Some of the in
creases proposed would amount to
so per cent, which cannot be entirely
justified upon the basis of added cost
Iof living. The situation confronting
the average department clerk here,
with rents and cost of food greatly
increased during the last few years,
presents grave problem in econom-
les. The cost of living at the ma
tional capital is perhaps
higher than in any other city of like
population in the country. Salaries
which seem to be out of proportion
to those paid in other cities for SIM
liar employment are often inadequate
among men of families employed in
Washington. 1t is perhaps safe to
| say that the clerk in washington

Baseball as a Business.

Cleveland Leader; Baseball has be-
come business in which millions of
dollars are invested and from which
large profits are obtained. Its reve-
nues and expenses are both on great
scale. 1t is growing bigger and more
important every year in the financial
and commercial sense, 1t is a nation
al sport which has developed into a
vast business enterprise. 1t pays to
amuse the American people. Baseball
magnates have learned how to make
the most of that fact. Hence big SAL
aries in the baseball world.

Farmers in Dire Distress.

Harper Kan, Sentinel: There is no
question but what the farmers are up
against it without much chance of re-
lief. One poor devil over in Barber
county last week lost two thorough
bred Hereford steers and one fine milch
cow from overeating and the same
week lost four valuable thoroughbred
Poland china brood sows, caused by the
bursting of a granary, the grain from
which smothered the animals. Some
thing has got to be done.

JESSUP LANDS THREE.
Three Recruits Are Secured by Ma.
rion Manager From Dayton
Central League Team.

Dayton. April 10.-Infielders Owen
Bush and w. B. Fisher and Elmer
Duggan, the southpaw twirler, have
been sold to the Marion club of the
Interstate league. The purchase was
made at Fairview park by Manager
Jessup, who came from Richmond to
look over the Vet squad. Duggan is
rated a good twirler, but the Vets are
long on slab men. Bush and Fisher
have shown fine form in practice, both
at bat and in the field, and Marion is
fortunate in getting hold of this trio
of youngsters. The consideration has
not been announced. In speaking of
the deal President Joe Wolf said that
while the boys looked very good to
him, he thought they had no chance
to beat out any of the regular infield-
ers, and it was, deemed wise to hold
the infield intact.
The players will not report at Ma
rion until the 18th, and Bush, Fisher
and Duggan will remain with the Vets
in training until that time.

FOXY CINCINNATI MANAGER Is
IN DOUBT WHO HE WILL PLAY
AT FIRST BASE AND THIRD
BASE THIS SEASON..
Palladium Special

Cincinnati, O., April 10.-"Unless
something unforeseen happens in the
next few days the Reds, exclusive of
pitchers, will line up as follows in the
opening game: Barry, first base; Hug
gins, second base; Corcoran, short
stop; Delahanty, third base; Kelly,
left field; Seymour center field; Cd
well, right field"
That positive statement has been
made by Manager Hanlon, who adds:
"Of course If on of the other men
should show something extraordinary
in the meantime. or one of these play
ers that | have named should be hurt
there will be a change. But present
indications are that the seven men
have designated will be on the lot
when the game with the Chicagos be-
gins.
THE fact that have selected them,
however does not signify that this will
be the permanent team, any more
than selection of a pitcher for the
initial contest will insure that gentle
man a permanent job for the coming
season. The reason | am counting on
these men for the opening game is
that they have been playing together
for some weeks, naturally creating a
certain amount of team work in which
the others are not so well versed. 1t
is sort of combination that would
not improve by being broken up so
soon before the opening of the sea-
son, and SO I'll send them to the post.
However, we have not passed the ex-
detrimental stage with the team. and
there is nothing positive in the as
signing of positions; nor will there be
until sometime after the season OPP
ems"
This means that Mike Mowrey and
Jim Delahanty still are equal favor
ties for the third base job. s.nd that
Jack Barry has not first base cinched
just because he has been chosen to
cover the bag in the initial game. The
other men, including Kelley, Seymour,
Odwell. Higgins and Corcoran are not
likely to be disturbed at any time dur
ing the season.
