This Office has received a book on
Concrete Construction about the
home and farm" published by the
Atlas Portland Cement Co., No. 80,
Broad Street, New York. The book
tells us how to mix and use concrete
from cement for the many purposes
for which it may be used. AS we
infer from reading the circular ac-
companying the copy any one wish
ing to build from cement may obtain
a copy by writing the publishers.
Henry Filbert, who has been en-
ployed on the farm of E. P. Lamb
of Warren, appropriated his en-
ployer's horse and cutter last Fri
day night while Mr.. Lamb was at a
banquet in Roberts. Saturday he
sold the rig to farmer up the Kin
nickinnic for SIS and took the af-
ternoon train from here for Chicar
| go. In the meantime the owner of
the horse was feeling around with
the telephone to ascertain where it
was at. Having located it he went
after the Filbert. Finding that he
had taken the train for Chicago he
had him picked off at Eau Claire
and deposited in the Hudson Jail.
In an hour and thirty-five minutes,
one day last week, the House of Re-
| representatives. passed 628 private
pension bills. Of course the merits
of these claims had been considered
in committee and passed upon.
When committee recommends the
passage of measure the House
takes it for granted that it is all
right and in most cases rati6es the
recommendation. The House of
Representatives passed the pension
appropriation bill with a proviso
abolishing all of the eighteen pen
sion agencies except the one at
Washington. This will effect say
i ing of 100000 annually.

would if we had the space. Hardly
a week passes that we do not put in
type from one to four columns OF
matter that when we come to make
up the forms we find ourselves COM
PEELED to leave out, and some things
are cut down TO the mere gist of an
| article that we would like to pub

things it is constant study to see
into how small compass we can
condense an item of news; how we
can most briefly express an idea.

whole truth, as they were origin
