A Queer Wager.

There are men whose pride is in the
stole endurance OF acute discomfort
They insist upon doing unpleasant
things in order to convince themselves
that they can do them. At oxford
some years ago there was an eminent
Rugby football player whose passion
was 10 discover the most uncomforta
bile things aud then 10 do them. One
evening n humorlSt suggested that as
It was January 1t would be rather

wager that he could sit TIL morning
chapel time IN his cold tub And he
did it.-Loudon Chronicle.

Council Orders Sale of Light

CONTEMPLATE CHANGE.
The Street Car Franchise
Again Ratified and Bond
Approved with $4,000
Forfeit.
CONTEMPLATE CHANGE.

The Council met Monday night and
ratified the sale of the franchise for
"a street railway, electric light, gas
and power plant" to H. M. Dalton.
The sale was made for $83, Mr.. Dali
ton being the only bidder; this in
Guided advertising, and holding the
extra meeting was $82. The sale was
approved and $4,000 certified check
transferred from the old bond to
the new one, the franchise of Feb. 2
being annulled.
Jas. A. Young, Jr., for Hopkins
vile Gas & Electric Co., asked for
new franchise extending his fran
chise which expires 1912 for 20 years
from date, as he intends to increase
the plant. After some discussion the
sale of franchises for both gas and
electric lights was ordered, as APP
pears elsewhere in this paper.
Geo. Duigiud, COL, was before the
council and asked that license be
granted him to operate pool room.
The council declined to take action,
leaving the matter with the Mayor,
who instructed the treasurer not to
grant the license, on the ground that
Duiguid was before the Police court
less than 60 days ago, charged with
conducting an unlawful house.
The mayor stated that he would
forbid the issuance of license to any
one who violated the license ordin-
ances and would recommend the re-
vocation of licenses issued to parties
who became law-breakers.

Opera House Feb. 28. There are
German and Irish comedians, French
and English comedians, but the

eclipses them all; for his humor is
broad, natural and spontaneous.
The comedy portion of the Donnelly

is given over to men who have made
a study of negro character for many
years. The names of Tommy Don
nelly, principal comedian of the AL.

monds and Frank Miller will bring
to the minds of many the antics of

will drive care to the dogs, and are

POSTAL RECEIPTS
FOR JANUARY
Break All Records for the Pales-
tine office.-Rural Routes
Being Inspected.

Postmaster Thomas Hall informs us
that the receipts for January for the
Palestine post-office we're the heaviest
ever shown for months business by
this office. This is a good indication
of the growth and business develop
ment Of the city.
The Herald also understands that
Rural Inspector Bennett is at present
engaged in making an inspection Of
the various rural routes over the coun-
tY, and will make whatever changes
seem necessary. Where routes are
shown not to be pstronized up to the
requirements of the department they
will probably be discontinued, and
other changes made as found neces
sary. The Herald hopes the Inspector
will not find it necessary to discontinue
any of the routes, as they are very
great convenience.

What 1t Looked Like.

The snow this morning was a re-
msrksble spectacle. The flakes were
the largest ever seen here, possibly,
and It came down fast and thick. One
lady, hurrying down the street with
her companion, declared it reminded
her of handkerchief shower, while a
we'll known hunter said it reminded
him of the time he went out to the
duck roost, and just after sun-up he
got q shot at the roost, and for, it
seemed to him, almost an hour you
couldn't see the skies, the roost or
anything else for the feathers which
kept falling. How many ducks did he
kill? Oh, well, that's another story.
But it was big snow, and no mistake.

GOOD RECORD ON
WINTER FIRES
Very Few Fires During All the
Cold Weather and Very
Small Losses.

The fire company responded to a
call last night at O'Clock, and found a
servants house on the premises of Mr..
Forbes, in Old Town, to be on fire.
The house was long ways from the
station, and was almost destroyed be-
fore the company reached it, but the
lose was small and no other property
was damaged.
Palestine holds splendid record for
fires during the winter months, and so
far has not had very heavy loss. The
fire boys have been called out very
little, and have not had to leave their
beds scarcely a night. Last winter,
we are told by the men at the station,
they only had to leave their beds one
night during the entire winter. Either
Palestine houses are we'll constructed
as to fiues, or else the people are very
careful with their fires.

For Constable.

Constable j. L. Boyd authorizes the
Herald to announce him as a csndi-
date for reelection as Constable of
Precinct No. l, subject to the action of
the Democratic primaries. Mr.. Boyd
has held this Office for the past two
years, and we believe no one will gain
say that he has made good officer.
Ee has been diligent in the discharge
of his duties, and If re. elected he will
no doubt continue to do his duty as he
has done it in the past. He asks the
support of the voters.
