False Friends.

1t is indeed strange how some
men profess friendship to others,
and then seek to get them into
trouble in advising them wrongly.
We have heard of people that
would hasten to poison the mind
of a man against an official of the
town, and advise the fellow to go
and click the Mayor or Marshal
or somebody to get even. Such
advice is certainly not that of a
friend. A man that is worked up
to pitch by those prodding him
on, to assault the Mayor of Logan,
simply gets himself in trouble, and
the kind, advising friend smiles at
his troubles. An officer of the law
is always armed to the teeth to
protect himself, and for false
friend to steer man into gat-
tling gun is pity for the man.
There are thoss that stand around
and hammer and knock on the
policy of the Mayor of Logan
they are ever ready to try to poison
somebody's mind against him, and
get the other fellow into trouble.
Then keep out of trouble them
selves, but enjoy seeing somebody
else suffer. The present Mayor of
Logan has no friends to reward or
enemies to punish. He is not fa-
voring any man or set of men. He
proposes to enforce the law to the |
letter, and he seeks to secure otIi-
GERS that he believes will do their
duty. He will serve his term of |
two years if he lives, and he is not
seeking second term of office.
The people put him there to enforce
the laws now, not some time in the |
future, and he will do it.. He may
carry black eye most Of the time,
but he enjoys fuss and will take
a hand spiritedly. We know of
two years that will go down in the
history of Logan in which the
laws are enforced, and thereafter
as long as he lives he will probably
be in the newspaper business here,
and help the next fellow to enforce
the laws. The fellow that don't
want to be caught at law breaking
had better not break the laws.

CHOOSING A PART. "
An Actors Experience In the Days Be-
fore He Became a Star.

We supported visiting stars at the
museum. One of these stars was
Jerry Cohan, the luthcr OF George
Cohan. We played The Molly Ma
guires" with him. | had to play Il
lawyer and had TO white shirt. Con
vention demanded that II lawyer
should not wear a coIored shirt.
Looking frantically about the dress

cuff. | cleaned il with breadcrtmbs,
cut it into Y shape and pinned it
over my colored shirt. Another star
was Frank Frayne, who was fine
marksman. His wife and brother
and brothcr-in-law travelled with
him. He shot an apple off her head
and pipe out of negro's mouth.
A member of the company was a
fierce looking bulldog that ran down
an incline and sprang upon the viii
lain of the company, bearing him to
the earth and tearing angrily mt a
red flannel chest protector worn by
the villain. The dog was a good
actor, but intense. The man who
played the villain showed me his
chest covered with sears where the
dog had bitten him instead of the
chest protector. 1t was very melo-
dramatic spectacle, and Mr.. Davidge
depended upon it to build up the
falling fortunes of his house. While
Frayne was playing there there was
some dissension in the family, and
his brother-in-law, who played the
villain, left the company. Mr. Da-
vidge sent for me and offered me
one of the two parts, that of the
negro who had the pipe shot from
his mouth or the villain who was
attacked by the dog.
"They are both splendid parts"
he said, "and if you will play either
Of them will put your name on the
billboards."

They were both dangerous, but if |

to play the negro. Frayne was

might. Ee never drank, but, Ire
flected again, he might for the first
time. While | played the negro
these thoughts disturbed me. The
pipe wabbled between my unsteady
teeth. A few years later Frank
Frayne missed aim for the first
time. He shot his wife in the head,
killing her instantly-Otis Skinner

'In the midst of life, we are in
DEATH" Once more has the mes
senger of death visited US, and
once more has stricken from our
ranks an honored Brother. Our
beloved friend and brother, A. l..
Hyson, has gone to the Supreme
Exalted Rulers domain and is now
ioyously mingling with the thou
sands of Elks who have entered
upon their eternal reward. Bro
ther Hyson was a most loyal de-
voted and enthusiastic Elk. He
loved and exemplified all our mot
toes and tenents; he stood for all
that Elkdom proclaims; and when
the signal of distress was hoisted
by any one, he was the first to
respond. His love, loyalty and
devotion to his devoted wife were
constant, pure and devotional.
He loved animals, nature and the
human family. His nature was
sunny, soothing and cheering.
He saw the bright side of all
things, and loved to help, rather
than harm. His untimely taking
off is mourned by all who knew
him, and we extend to his
stricken widow the deepest sorrow
and sympathy of our brotherhood.
Out of respect to our departed
Brother,
REsoLvED:-That this tribute
to him be spread upon our re-
cords; that copy thereof be
furnished the widow, under seal
of the Lodge; and that the same
be printed in our local news
papers; and that appropriate
insignia of mourning be placed in
our Lodge.

the proposition thoroughly before
starting the work.
Mr.. Weldy offered a resolution
to hire Mr.. John G. Petit as
solicitor for another year, at a
salary of $3.50. Favorable action
was Immediately taken.
Mayor Dollison stated to the
council that Mr.. Robert Davy's
term as night policeman would ex-
pire Wednesday, June l3, and
presented the name of Mr.. George
Krishbaum to succeed him, until
Jan. 1, 1907. A motion to confirm
receiving no second, the Mayor
announced that under the usual
practice in such cases, Mr.. Krish-
baum would serve as night police
man until the next regular meet
ing. Col. Weldy objected that
there is no legal authority for such
proceeding, and long discussion
ensued. The Mayor finally adj
dressed the council, and told them
a few things in no uncert tain
words. He told them that several
other applications were in; that
one applicant had resided in Logan
only three years; that another
was practically ineligible to the
office; that third had tried to
buy the appointment of him
and had come to him as the repre-
of "strong organiza-
ton" Col. Weldy then made a
speech, in the course of which he
stated that, although he belonged
TO no church, he had as much re-
igion as any man in the country.
He condemned, personally, the
system of "espionage" that has
oeen practised, as he said, upon
certain citizens of Logan, and as
'everated that he had "no enemies
% punish, and no friends to re-
ward" After the ebullitions had |
n some degree subsidized, a motion
o adjourn was carried, leaving
he matter in status quo. Mr..
[rishbaum will serve till the next
meeting.

The Spiders Spinning Machine.

The "spineret" or web machine
ot the common garden spider is an
object worthy of the careful study
of every owner of microscope. 1t
consists of four united masses, each
pierced by a multitude of holes, the
openings being imperceptible to the
naked eye. These several holes
each permit the passage of single
thread. Some idea of the infnitesi-
NAL fneness of these threads may
be gained when it is known that the
spiders thread as we see it is made
up of upward of 1000 minute webs,
1000 from each of the four spin
eret masses. These 1000 separate
threads unite at the main opening
of the spineret, making the single
filament from which the spider
spins it's web.

QUEER BELGIAN CUSTOMS.
Burning the Dead and Renting Graves
TO the INDECENT,

TO tne inutHeHh
There is nothing in Belgium, not
even a marriage, to which so much
pomp and show belong as to fu-
neral. 1t is the most important
show occasion of career, and the
expense must be heavy tax on the
average family, for one will not
economic in the details that Gus
tom says are necessary for the dead
if such ceremony can be prevented.
When death occurs Grape is not
hung upon the door, bnt notice is
sent to all friends and relatives.
This when folded is about the size
of sheet of commercial note pa
per, not placed in an envelope, but
folded so the address is written on
the outer section, which has black
border an inch deep.
On the receipt of this notice cards
are left at the house by men, who
call and represent the women of
the family. No woman attends a
funeral, though it may be her near
est and dearest who lies dead, nor
does any woman go to the grave.
Grief always appeals to ones sym
pathies, but it is difficult for for
eigner of Anglo-Saxon stock to as
sociate grief with the usual funeral
procession that one sees in Belgium.
The hearse is gaudy with gilt and
looks top heavy with its ornaments.
1t is much like circus chariot in
all but shape. The driver wears
fantastic hat and cloak. The hearse
is drawn by black horses with trap
pings of black, and two, sometimes
four, men follow it clothed in high
pointed hats with streamers quite
to their waists and long flying capes
of black with more streamers. Then
comes a line of carriages, the more
the better for popular esteem. 1t
is not necessary to have any one in
them. Often the men who ride are
smoking. | have counted twenty
five carriages, half of them empty.
Only the very rich can buy land out
right for their dead. The other
people hire the grave for as long
a time as they can afford, maybe
year, five years, ten years and very
rarely twenty-five years. Then it is
taken for another occupant.
Those opponents of cremation
who have sentiment as an argument
against it are asked to think of this
way of doing, which must one day
be the only alternative near the
large cities. The new coffin is placed
upon the remains of the former un-
less one cares to remove what may
be left of what was once the home
of soul. For the very poor there
is harder lot still, as they cannot
hire a grave. The potter's field is
large ditch, into which the bodies
are placed and covered with quick
lime. Does not cremation seem even
in a sentimental way preferable to
this? Letting out graves explains
why there are no old time grave
stones. / asked the worl1men around
the place, 'Where is the old part of
the burying ground?" and received
for answer, "There isn't any," which
a stroll around proved. The Oldest
grave / could find was but twenty
five years and was concession per-
petuite," the workmen explained, to
the letting of graves, and the in
quiries elsewhere verified all their
statements Standard.
