WELL! ]! WELL!! WELL !! !!

The select" few office holders had their pay increased few days ago, and what's more agreeable to them, it's as much as they expected. But we didn't see where the laborers got any increase-we mean the men who actually work and earn more than they receive; but of course that "gang" don't count, only on election day. We'll, goodness knows the tax payers pockets are being called on heavily enough without increasing the pay of those who work only few hours per day. However, the writer of this ad had dream the other night. He dreamt the water board took up the water meter ques- ton again and found that the manu- featuring concerns and the poor down-trodden N. Y., N. H. and Il. railroad were being furnished with water at price which is less than IL costs the city to deliver it. Well, De- fore the dreamer woke up it turned out that the water commissioners "cut out" the rate of F cent per 100 gallons and made the lowest rate to read 1 cent per 100 gallons. We never believe in dreams, but if the commissioners did make that change in water rates there would be enough money made to counteract the above increase in wages. Now if the above board would meet at some hotel or restaurant and have tea party or coffee party (nothing stronger), they might see where they could turn in something to the taxpayers. or course if the tea and coffee served at this party does not come from our store there's no knowing what they'll do or what they'll drink before re- tiring. But remember, if it's our quality their brains will act correctly. nAEl AN,c H~ (TODE

Rahies Fed to SACRED snake.

In spite of the fact that a similar
charge was investigated aud dismissed by
the grand jury some time ago, another
complaint has been filed with United
States District Attorney Llewellyn, OF
New Mexico, that tribe of Indians 10
that Territory are given 10 the worship
of an enormous sepent, to which is fed
the newborn babes OF pueblo in which
it is housed and carefully tended and
guarded. The complaint was filed by a
Catholic priest, who alleges that dozen
families were segregated from several
pueblos two years ago an formed nto q
pueblo by themselves. Although it is
known that many children have been
born to these fsmil;ps. not child is to
be found 10 rFr pueblo. This led the
priest to press bis Investigations, with
the result, as alleged, that he discovered
that in an adobe house, isolated and
closely guarded, there is an enormous
serpent, which is worshipped by the
Indians of all the pueblos around, and
that every babe born 10 the small pueblo,
and 1t is suspected in many others, Is
fed TO the serpent.

Boycott Cause of the Trouble.

Assistant United States District At
torney Black gained further evidence in
San Francisco yesterday regarding the
attack on the japanese restaurant, which
has now become an international episode.
He failed to find anything likely to
cause trouble with Japan.
Four white witnesses and the Japanese
we're examined. All the whites agreed
that the trouble developed from the
labor union boycott. These witnesses
said there had been a fight in the street
due to a laboring man coming out of q
restaurant and being asked whether he
was a union man. He declared he was
not and was set upon and badly beaten.
This drew a large crowd which was still
present when trouble arose between O
Iather and a teamster. A Japanese
cook appeared with big knife, and in
the struggle this knife was thrown
through pane of glass. At this one
of the crowd remarked: 81 guess they
want their windows broken. Well, well
help them out" With this, they de-
stroyed the windows, including those
letiered, stop! Try our wonder meals. y
The Japanese we're examined, but they
revealed nothing yet made public. The
report of investigation was sent to At
torney General Bonapsrte.

wife incapable of transactiDg business.
making third charge against her hus-
| band Mrs. Dslrymple said:
"The third cause was. my husband

the interested parties Miss Nora b. Wes'
ton believing that the story must soor
become public, notified her parents o.
the situation and wrote me letter, IL
which permission was given to use the
same, as | saw fit. Miss Weston begs
forgiveness OF Mrs. DalrYmple for the
great wrong done her. She calls attention
to her youth and innocence prior to this
and her inability to Withstand temptation
She was a mere slip of a girl, sixteen

FIVE years ago. She is an extremely
beautiful young woman and has become
singer. She disappeared after writing

The May grand jury, in New York,
which has been investigating the affairs
of the Equitable Life Assurance Society,

Thomas d. JOrdon, formerly controller
of the Equitable. Perjury aud forgery
in the third degree was charged. No

As iu the case of John r. Hegeman,

surauce Company, who was indicted by

prior 10 the annual report to the State
Department of Insurance and designed,
it is charged, to mislead the superinten-

coneernina Soil Moisture.

SO far as cultivation is concerned,
there are three principal steps in the
conservation of soil moisture:
The soil must be loOsened to a con-
siderable depth in order to prepare a
reservoir to receive the rain and carry
the water downward into the soil. This
may be accomplished by deep plowlng.
by listing or by disking unplowed lands
The water which is carried down into
the subsoil must be brought back again
into the surface soil, where the seed f.
terminating and the young roots ar
growing. and TO accomplish this a goo
connection must he made between Il.
furrow slice and the subsoil, and tha
Is the purpose Of the use Of the subsur
face packer Immediately after plowing
Finally. In order that the water whici
is drawn Up again toward the surface
may not reach the mir and be wasted
by evaporation, the upper two or thrc
inches Of the soil must be kept melloV
in the form of soil mulch, and this is &C
complished in the growing OF crops D.

practicable with wheat as with corr
