"A nice Easter program was rem
dered at the M. E. church Sunday
morning. A large collection, amount
ing to close to $4,000 was taken up
for missionary purposes.
The Minneapolis wheat market
has had a little stronger tone the last
few days, having reached about 6 cents
above the low point of a few weeks
ago. The little boom is entirely due
to the speculative interests, however,
and is based on wet weather and delay
in seeding in spring wheat districts.
What upward tendency is displayed
must take place in the face of visible
supply of 46,322,000 bushels, which is
a trife over 100000 bushels greater
than a year ago.
Once each year the Ladies' Study
Club of this city gives an entertain
ment to which the gentleman are in
vited. That event occurred Friday
evening Of last week at the Chas. S.
Whiting home. The ladies prepared
a program in which a little play en-
titled, " Maidens All Forlorn," formed
a principal part. Vocal and instru-
mental selections were also a part of
the program. After the program
was concluded, refreshments We're
served. 1t was an affair thoroughly
enjoyed by all.
Gay Barrows, superintendent of
the gas and water plants is certainly
a mechanic of considerable inventive
ability. Not long since it was found
necessary to test some of the gas met
ers. No machine for that purpose had
ever been placed in the plant, but
that did not worry Gay. He put his
head at work and made a machine
that will test ameter within one-tenth
of one cubic inch to the foot. The
continuance is simple but it performs
the work, and that, too, as accurately
as any machine made for that purpose.
F. Hardy is feeling good because
of striking a fine flow of water on his
property in the west part of the city
known a. the Barnes property. Sew
eral attempts were made to secure a
well, but without success. 1t has al
ways been supposed that it vas next
to impossible to get a good supply of
water in that locality. The well,
which has just been completed for
Mr.. Hardy byOle Jordet, is a four
inch casing and reaches to a depth of
104 feet. Mr.. Hardy had delayed ar
engagements for building because of
scarcity of water, but will now go
ahead and improve the place.
Paul Cooper has been kept busy
about the court house yard the past
few days looking for and filing with
putty small holes in the bark of the
boxelder trees. There is some strange
bird doing the work. 1t bores some
times a half-dozen little holes through
the bark and just far enough to insure
the sap running out. This writer has
noticed several trees tapped by the
birds and as a usual thing the holes
are made on the north side and about
six or seven feet from the ground
So far as we have noticed, the holes
are bored where the tree is healthy
and sound, which proves that it Ii
not done by a bird seeking worms
What the effect will be on the trees i,
hard to tell, although it is though

The fiscal court in denying the
Commercial clubs petition asking
that the county donate $1,000 to the
club. made a regrettable error. The
county of McCracken is considered in
all the schemes OF the Commercial
club, and is a recipient of the fruits
of its work. Announcement will be
made this week of the contamination
of one of its plans for the county that
would compensate the county for a
dozen donations like the one asked
for. The members of the court from
the county district unfortunately
seem to get on the wrong side of ev-
cry proposition originating in the
city, which is deplorable. The cit,
pays the greater part of the county
taxes and should receive the proper
consideration in view of that fact.

ternity with interviews. are seem
ingiy disposed to take advantage or
his present condition TO shoot paper
wads, with pins hidden in them, at
the old veteran. The senator's
bright after-dinner speeches may
have given way to the twaddle of old
age, etc, as some are "squibbiing )"
but he has only come to that afflic-
ton which follows the passing OF
the days of youth and strength into
old age and weakness. of a strong
mind into a feeble one, as thousands
of others have done and thousands

doubt come 4 day soon when the
truth will have to be written con-
corning the senior senator from New

The Cry for Workers.

(From Louisville Commercially
Not only from the wheat fields OF
the West, but from the cities and
farmsides of the East, arises the cry
for more laborers. Never had Uncle
Sam so much to do for his sons.
Work and play he has had for all.
New England is at standstill for
want OF men, Public improvements
in various towns are held up for lack
of laborers. The Italian employment
agencies report all their resources in
men exhausted. The tide in fmmi-
grants from French and British Can
ada has fallen off, and the Irish have
ceased to come in any great num-
bers, for there are very few left In
the Emerald Isle to come.
Farm help in Central New England
is almost impossible to obtain. The
hay crop is being saved by extraor-
binary exertions only on the part of
old people, young men and girls not
accustomed to such work. In some
New England towns $40 and sf5 a
month with board is offered for farm
help.
The Canadian Northwest wants
100, 900 men to save its wheat crop
Where are they all to come from:
The wheat must be gathered. The
world must not go hungry. Work at
every mans disposition is a condi-
ton of true prosperity.
The idler and the tramp have no
excuse for living. Every man. wheth-
er millionaire or ordinary wage earn
err, should OFF with his coat when the
peoples bread is TO be made. To be
a farm laborer is to be comforts pro.
