The blond mustach, which in the
old days was curled out in long,
flowing ends, is now cropped close
and, like the hair of the head,
shows streaks of gray.
The real feature of the face is
the mouth. Watch the movements
Of that organ and you are apt to
witness the emotions at play behind
the scenes. 1t is a mouth that cas-
lily curves into a pleasant smile and
as easily tightens in disapproval.
Judge" Hamilton is a man of
medium height, about 5 feet 8 or 10
inches. He walks with an easy
nonchalance.

in reply to questions purely person.

By defeating Alex M. Winston

The score was: Winston, 1856; Rior-

Joe Cans has at last decided he
can't make the lightweight class, so
has declared himself welterweight
and wants fight with any of the
men in that class. Cans stated a
few days ago he would fight them
all, but would like to get a match
with the best one. He even went
as far as to say he would go out
of that class and fight Jack O'Brien.
Joe is broke and when a fighter is
broke he would do most anything

Melody has written to Smiths

would be necessary would be a
wire and he would leave for the
west.
Wouldn't that be going some to
get the best two men in the world

Kid Hulen, whose real name is
William Hulen, has been missing
from his home at Ashland, Ore,
since Feb. 20, and his friends are
alarmed. Hulen, it appears, was in
Seattle about two months ago, and
1t is reported that he visited Ever
EFT. where he turned out a pennant-
winning team for the Northwest
league in 1905. A telegram has
been received by the Elks OF Seat

will be for $4,000 a side and the title

President O'Brien of the Ameri-
can association, who has been in
Louisville attending the schedule
meeting, announces an interesting
innovation for the association this
season, which will do away with
tn danger of sponge balls being
rung in at critical moments.
O'Brien has devised hopper to
hold the balls. In this hopper at
the beginning of the game the UNI
pire will place II balls, which he
has previously inspected.
The balls can be drawn out only
one at a time, and must be taken
in regular order after they have
been out of play and have been
returned to the hopper. No one
but the umpire can take them out.

take his buttermilk home without

If the creamery is a cooperative

CLEAN UP.

Remove Manure and Other Dlsease-Breed-
Ing Accommodations from Your Premises.
With the melting of the snow dur
ing the next few weeks will come in
creased danger to health from the ac-
cumulat.ons of disease-breeding mat
ter which is thrown upon the ground
during the winter.
The germ theory is now recognized
as correct by the medical profession
and its understanding by the laymen
would save not only doctor bills, but
health and life.
In this climate the waste and decay-
ing matter, especially during the win
ter, is practically harmless. The SUI
perabundance of oxygen in the air
and the frozen condition of all LIQUID
matter prevents decomposition, and it
is this decomposition which develops
disease germs. The thawing in this
season of the year permits the de-
composition to actively set in, and the
germs are abundantly multiplied.
These germs, unless carried away
by drainage or destroyed by some
process, spread disease during the
warm months, when they are rapidly
multiplied.
They sink into wells and reser-
voirs, and later bring on typhus and
kindred diseases.
Much of the danger could be
avoided by removing the germ breed
ing matter from the proximity of hu-
man habitations. But if this cannot be
done, surface water coming from such
source should be turned into the
sewers and not permitted to form
pools and ponds, saturating the soil
and leaving it's load of death depos-
tied in it, A small amount of disin-
fectants properly used would destroy
enough disease germs to kill a small
army.
These things are necessary in the
city where the condition of one indi-
vidual's premises may have such a
deleterious effect upon the health OF
another.
Boards of health are good agencies
to enforce these sanitary regulations,
but for some unexplainable reason the
public looks upon the recommends
lions of these officers as an interior
ence with their personal liberty, and
seldom follow the directions unless
compelled to do so.
The arousing of public sentiment
on this question, and an emulation on
the part of every one to Guido his
neighbor in guarding against the dan
gers indicated is a decided help to
officers charged with the responsibility
of public health in the discharge OF
their duties. Times.

MARKET FIRNIER.

me Potato Situation as Viewed by the Lat
est Number of the Chicago Packer.
Chicago-The poatto situation has
shown a little Improvement this week
and there has been some slight ad-
vance in the market. Receipts here
have been moderate, although no
complaints have been heard about not
getting sufficient potatoes to supply
the trade. Burbanks are running
somewhat short but dealers declare
there is an ample supply of EARLY
Ohios and Triumphs.
Shipments from Michigan appear
to have let up coming in this direc-
ton, and from reports received here
it seems that eastern markets are buy
ing more freely from Michigan. 1t is
generally admitted that the movement
OF Michigan stock east will have a
wide influence on the potato situation
IN the west. What potatoes are held
IN Michigan constitute kind of sur
plus, the presence of which will de-
press the market, but the absence of
which will result in better prices all
around.
A local dealer had report this
week from large handler of Michi-
gan potatoes, which said that pota-
toes there have been moving better
the last few days, and if the improve
ment continues the price undoubtedly
will show some advance. No opinion
is ventured how long the free move
ment will continue or how much ad-
vance will be realized should condi-
lions favor an incraese in price.
A number of potato men are posi-
tive in the statement that there is
absolutely no Indication that potatoes
will sell much higher than the present
market. They contend that there are
plenty of potatoes yet left in growers
hands, and that the homegrown stock
from New York state to Tennessee is
Still being offered in such quantities
as to have an influence in the market.
Inadvertently it was mentioned in
last weeks Packer that the seed DO
tato deal is virtually over. This was
intended to apply to the south and
southwest, and while it was under
stood by the trade generally some
people got the wrong impression that
it had reference to the entire country.
1t is we'll known that northern sections
have hardly begun to buy as yet.
- Il. c. Possehl of Baker, Mimi,
writes The Packer that good deal of
genuine Red River Early Ohio seed
stock is held in his vicinity. He
thinks that poor and inferior stock
was mostly shipped in the fall and
early winter, and that farmers held
back the best stock for higher prices.
But now lower prices are ruling than
was formerly paid for poorer stock.
The carlot receipts here up to and
including Thursday were IS cars COM
pared with 104 cars same days last
week and 1913 cars same days last
year. Chicago Choice Burbanks are
selling around SOC while many cars
bring less money. Rurals run 40 to
