The woman said her name was Mrs

She was directed to the headquarters
Of the long distance company.

attached to a silver cord. "Now, go

Moore says it is mans game the
operators are playing.
A stanch union man in Chicago had
discussed things with his fellows,
made speeches and furnished many
thoughts that stand in good stead now,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. He
loved principle and hated weak kneed
men. His brothers admired and re-
spected him.
The other night they saw him slip
ping stealthily up the alley from Clark
street and go into the back door Of the
Western Union building. They called,
and he stopped.
what are you doing here, Art?'
they demanded.
He looked from one face to an
other, like one who had been found
out In a crime. And then he spoke
slowly, heavily and without hope,
Boys he said, boys, | couldn't
sit there and let my mother die She
would not let me die. She has gone
out and shaved for me, so that l could
learn the trade and now she is old
and gone to pieces. You're right, all
of you, and I'm wrong, dead wrong,
but l could not stand it to sit there
and think. I'm going back to work"
Out in Clark street car ratified and
changed. An automobile buzzed past
on the boulevard on the other side Of
the building. There was the monot-
ony of the city to break the silence
and now and then the shrill cry Of a
newsboy calling out strike extras.
But where they stood was vacant ST.
lence. Then one Of the group spoke.
Like one in the presence of tragedy
he spoke, slowly and with kindness.

He watched them pass out into La
sale street And then he turned
away from the door, skunk down the
alley and disappeared into the crowd
Of people that flowed down Clark
street.

PIG RAN WILD
Scared Horse on Bank St and
 General Mixup Occurred.

There was miniature Wild West exhibition on Bank street this morn- ing that furnished lots of amusement for big crowd of spectators. A man was driving down the street with three small pigs in crate. Opposite tue Manufacturers National bank, one of the porkers jumped out and made a wild dash for liberty, but be- fore it had gone far it was caught by the hind legs and pulled back to the wagon. Then somebody else grab- bed it by the fore legs and an effort was made to, push 1t into the prison with it's companions. The pig squealed with all it's might and the horse became frightened and made a mad plunge towards Exchange place. The animal was restrained while the men wrestled with the pig, and while they managed to hold onto 1t they made poor headway towards getting it back where 1t belonged until q boy came to the rescue and between the three they finally put it behind the bars. Then the two that had remain ed on the inside emitted three or four grunts of derision at the futile at tempt of their chum to get out of the clutches of its custodian and the pro- cession moved on.

FILED REPORT TO-DAY.
In Case of Charles Leonard Against
 Laurence Estate. I

Attorney T. F. Carmody was ap. pointed by Judge F. M. Peasley a committee to take the evidence in the case of Charles H. Leonard against the estate of Joseph Laurence, filed his report to-day. The suit was for a claim of $40 for services rendered MT Laurence. The plaintiff was rep resented by Attorney U. G. Church and the estate by Attorneys James E. Russell and Mayor w. E. Thoms. MT Laurence lived in the eastern part of the city and for years before his death, it was claimed, he was de- pendent upon his neighbors to a great extent for little household services. The gist of Attorney Car mody's finding was that the plaintiff had earned and was entitled to $S5. Mrs Elizabeth Leonard, wife of the plaintiff. was given a verdict in the superior court some months ago for $1,500 against the same estate for services rendered MT Laurence. An appeal was taken to the supreme
 court and the verdict was sustained.

WHOSADITWASCOLD?
Mercury Took a Sudden Jump
 Buds and Blossoms Now.

The weather is warm enough to-
 day to suit anybody, and if 1t keeps
 on like this for. week or so every
 body who can afford it will be off to 1 the shore or the mountains. What a
 strange climate we live iA anyway.
 Half the year people have to hustle to
 save themselves from freezing to ! death and the rest of the time is oc-
 cupied in an effort to keep cool.
 What q pity 1t is that there is not a
 nice park with lot of shade trees in ] every district of the city so that folks ] who have to remain at home during l the whole summer long could extract ] at least small measure of enjoy ment out of life in this hustling com
 munity, where there is work in abundance, but the wages are not l sufficient to enable common laborer to pay bis legitimate expenses and send his family on an extended vaca- ton. But real happiness is not found in travel and sightseeing, but rather in the enjoyment of good health and ! contented mind, so that probably hundreds who go away would gladly give all they are worth if they could stay at home and be healthy and happy like some of their neighbors. To be sure man who has good health would like little relaxation once in while as well as others do but he shouldn't destroy his chance of happiness by looking for too much.
 There is something in the old saying
 that a mans best riches Is ignorance
 of wealth, though. perhaps none of us
 would cling to that theory very long if we had our own way about things. In any case, it is wise plan to be
 content with one's lot, for it is poor
 consolation to be constantly wishing
 for something that Is beyond our reach. But the beautiful summer time is here now, and all should make the
 most they can of it. Those who can't
 afford to take vacations will be happy
 at home if they make up their minds
 to be content with such outings as their limited means will permit them
 to enjoy.

WALK THROUGH PARK
Many Think H. H. Peck's Peti-
 lion Should Be Granted.

Some. of the aldermen are not pleased over the summary turn down of the petition of H. H. Peck, re- presenting The Elton, for a walk through the green which would enable patrons to reach the building from the south side of the park without follow ing COW trall through it. They think this a reasonable request and cannot see why it should have been denied. They also take the ground that a walk should be laid through the park from the former resting place of the dear old band stand clear down to the sidewalk at the soldiers lnonu- ment, and couple running across that patch so that room might be made for about fifty or more seats, so that the large number of old folks who come into the center during the summer months and have no ambition to go any fartber may be able to find place to rest for while be- fore starting on the homeward trip.

The Class Play

The graduating class gave their play
Merchant Of Venice lUp-to- Date)' on
Wednesday evening before full house,
many being present from Emerson, st.
Vincent and Toilette. The play itself
is both good and bad, being a parody on
Shakespeare. The plot runs to foot
ball and the penalty is ga pound Of hair
to be taken nearest the brain" and an
an X-ray examination proves that q
football player is minus this organ, and
thus the william is foiled. In play con-
fined mostly to the members of the class
naturally there will not be anything but
ordinary dramatic ability available with
few exceptions. Under the able drill
ing of Mr.. j. d. Winlaw however, the
work was very we'll done indeed by all
the participants. They were all text
perfect and the general movement of the
play was excellent. Without detraction
of the other players it is fair to say that
Nolte Ashley as "Gobbo" was the star,
though suffering from hoarseness
that left HIM hardly able to speak aloud
Miss Harvey was also an excellent
"Portia." The football game was
quite realistic. Stanley Kneeshaw's
''Shylock" was also we'll rendered.
The Pembina orchestra filled the
waits with fine music and as usual we
were glad to listen, and realize that this
little city has so fine musical organiza-
ton. The proceeds of the evening were
about SIC and will be given by the
class in the form of books or other me-
mento, to the school.
