rand was much more pleasant. J. C. Haas. foreman of the grand jury, arose. made the presentation speech. He spoke first of the efficient service rend- cred by Captain Whiting. and said the baillff's dilig snce had kept the grand jury from being idle. Then he said the grand jury had found a number of true bills. but he thought the truest bill was the man to whom he was to present the tokens of remembrance. Mr Haas nsld the sketch of the low Ing cup in his hand, and declared to Captain Whiting he did not want lim to receive the loving cup for It's in- trInsic value, but for the spirit and sentiment contained in 1t. Then he lifted a nicely wrapped box of cigars from the table and presented 1t as souvenir from the members.
 MT. Haas closed with paragraph in which he brought in several clever re- nar ks about baseball. as he knew that Captain Whiting was fond admirer of the sport.
 Captain Whiting was profuse In his thanks. He says he will smoke the ci- gars and keep the imaginary loving cup forever to remember the February. 1907, grand jury.

And the Babies.

THROWN EYED Johnnie O'Neil,
lA better known to his family and
fHn immediate friends as the fiat
baby" had wandered to the
long avenue skirting the river front.
Harry Wendell, young lawyer who
was rapidly becoming prominent in
politics, was hurrying to the meeting
Of the City Reform club. He did not
notice the perspiring fodder and al
most ran into him. The fat baby made
a frantic effort to dodge, colllded with
another pedestrian and fell to the side
walk. 1t was not hard fall, but the
fat baby's ordinary optimism had been
undermined by the weather. Instead
of scrambling to his feet he lay on the
pavement and sobbed in helpless mis-
cry.
Harry Wendell picked up the small
sufferer and handed him a carnation
he had been wearing. As the babes
feelings changed from sorrow TO won
der and then TO delight his sobs grew
fainter.
Sure. and these hot days are hard
on the babies, with never breeze stir
ring except along the river and the
trucks and wagons keeping them away
from there"
Harry Wendell looked around and
saw Tom McMannis. the ward leader
and one of the strongest supporters OF
Richard Dorsey, the boss whom the
City Reform club was working hard TO
overthrow.

Monmouth Grocers Indignant When

A man giving his name as n E.
Stewart of Galesburg, went to Mon
mouth the other day and bought a
peck of potatoes at each of a number
