Song writing is one of the most lu-
crative Of occupations, provided one
has the knack Of appealing to the pop
ular taste. The average writer stands
a better chance Of making money by
producing pathetic rather than SO called
comic" songs. 1.-THE Lost Chord" has
made three or four fortunes. 1t has
been the most lasting success on rec.
ord, and for years Sir Arthur Sullivan
as composer, and Madam Antolnettc
Sterling, for whom 1t was specially
written, received royalty amounting
to IL cents each ON every copy sold. II

Mr.. Simpson, the promoter Of the
inter-urban project, from Davenport
has given out the fact that it has
been decided by those who have the
affairs Of the enterprise in hand, to
go to Manchester instead of Dyers-
vile as was their original intention.
AS is well known to our readers the
line was to be built via Upton and
Monticello, thence to Hopkinton and
Dyersville, seeking connection with
the trunk lines there. The line was
the source of considerable argument
in regard to it's merits locally. Hop
kinton like Monticello was DESTROYS
to have a competitive line of some
kind to their present service but in
the event of the terminus being at
Manchester, Hopkinton will be left
at the north a number of miles.
However it is stated that the citizens
OF that place do not intend to let
their opportunities for brick and tile
industries and stone quaries lie DOR
mant and are considering connection
with another line through Anamosa.
1t is stated that the decision reach-
ed by the promoters in regard to
the Davenport line is final and the
curtain has been rung down on the
project as far as Dyersville is con-
ned.-Dyersville Commercial.

THE \. Y. WORLD.

Thrice-a-week Edition
The Thrice-a-Week World hopes
to be in 1906 a better paper than it
has ever been before, and it has
made its arrangements accordingly
IT'S news service covers The entire
globe, and it reports everything full
", promptly and accurately. II is
the only paper, not a daily, which is
as good as a daily, and which will
keep you as completely informed Of
what is happening throughout the
world.
The Thrice-a-Weew World is fan
IN its political reports. You can
get the truth from its columns,
whether you are Republican or DEM
ocrat, and that is what you want.
A special feature of the Thrice
a-Week World has always been its
serial fiction. 1t publishes novels by
the best authors in the world, novels
which in book form sell for $3.50
apiece, and its high standard in this
respect will be maintained in the
future as in the past.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regu-
lar subscription price is only S1.0O
per year, and this pays for 156 pa
pers. We offer this unequalled news
paper and the Weekly Telegram to-
gefher for one year for $1.65. The
regular subscription price Of the two
papers is $500.

Father OF tho weather bureau.

The father of the weather bureau
service was Increase A. Lapham, Q
modest and retired but ripe scholar,
who lived In Milwaukee He was the
frst to note by telegraph the progress
Of the wind currents and storms and
to predict their appearance In specified
nelghborhoocs. On the strength of a
weather dispatch from Omaha in 1869
or thereabouts he announced the arsi
storm on Lake Michigan that ever was
heralded twelve hours In advance Of
Its arrival. The FIRST work Of the
weather bureau was under his charge
In Chicago. 1t was on the small be-
ginnings of DR.. Lapham that the en-
tire system Of the signal service wat
based. DR.. Lapham died in 1875.

THE HUMAN.
TROLLEY

The Great Adam Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers United Shows offer
more novelty sensations and ex-
elusive specialties this season than
were ever before assembled in a cir
Gus performance. Beginning with
the stupendous spectacle of Fight
| ing the Flames, which involves more
than one thousand people, the ring
acts listed number more than one
hundred. Most of these acts are
new to America, and the artists in
Iterpreting the European successes
make their first appearance here with
these big shows. There are several
sensations that have created ire
mendous interest in London, Paris
and Berlin, and which are sure to re-
peat this extraordinary success in
America. Salvo's Trip to the
Moon is a feat Of risk, daring and
skill that mocks human understand
ing, and the deed Of Frederick 10
hedie, in which be walks upon his
hands up a steep spiral stairway t.
the apex of the tent, and then, with.
out relaxing his rigid, inverted posi-
ton, clasps two frail looking wheel:
and reels with terrific momentum
down two steep cables to the ground,
| is of the same hair raising, pulling
accomplishment. At no time in his
long trip head downward does the
supple, fearless performer relax his
Iup-side-down position, with toes
pointed skyward, and the body rs
straight as a plummet, until he has
made the seeming interminable
Journey, step by step, round by round
and up the perpendicular height to
the vantage point Of change for the
fierce, blood-curdling, topsy-turvy
trolley ride down the acute incline.
The strain upon the arms and back
|of the performer in this marvellous
journey up-side-down from the
ground to the highest point in the
canvas dome, and then continuing
on downward to the level track,
without break, and travelling like the
forks of lightning, makes this ath-
letic achievement the most marvel
GUS ever witnessed at a public exhi-
bition in the whole range of human
history. Exhibits here Monday,
May 21.

signed by 1000 chlcagoans. 1t seems
that he was picture Trainer. and as
he went about canyassing for orders
he was in the habit of collecting sigma
lures to his petition. President Nc
Kinley listened respectfully to the APP
plicant, questioned him as to his quail
ifcations and finally explained that be-
fore he could give the matter serious
consideration he would have to confer
with the senator's and representatives
from Illinois.
