SfPew Flowers.

Stre~ flowers above our noble dead;
Yes, above our gallant brave;
Scatter them gently above each head
Now slumbering in the grave.
Though the sod above them is lying,
Their noble bones at rest,
Let US be with each other vyiug,
Who can honor them the best
Strew flowers on the tombs of our gallant
dead;
Yes, and strew them on each privates grave;
Although no tower looms DER his head
He was among the brave.
Although history does not record
His name and valor true,
He was among the boys on duty,
And shared their, hardships too.
On many bloody battle field
He was among the brave;
He did his duty well, my boys.
And helped his land to save.
So strew ye flowers above the lowly,
AS well as above the great,
And by your SO doing
Onr cause will he'er abate.
But will ever grow the grander,
AS the coming years pass by,
Until each gallant soldier
Has said his last good bye.
Then we, their sons and daughters,
Will honor them SO true,
Who bore the brunt of battle.
And wore the "bonnie blue.

Mrs. CLARA LEE.

Mayor Reeves is losing no time in
carrying out his plans for clear
town and the enforcement of the
laws of the state as far as he is able.
On Monday he notified the two per
cent refreshment parlor proprietors
to close up their places of business
as they would not be allowed to
operate in Dodge City, and the
places are all closed. The mayor
is taking his duties seriously and
means to enforce the law. In fact
it is difficult to see how a mayor
could do otherwise than do his duty
since such a sentiment has been
created all over the state for law
enforcement.
The county attorney has also been
busy this week. He has directed
his energies against the c. o. D.
whiskey business and whiskey ped
dlers. The U. S. Express Office in
this city was again searched and 29
boxes of booze taken which now
rests quitely in the county Jail This
time the local agent has been taken
and must explain the c. o. D. buis-
ness as conducted at his Office when
the district court meets in June.
There is only one phase of the ques-
ton however that will affect the ex-
press agent and that is whether or
not packages of whiskey have been
given out other than to the parties
to whom they were addressed. Of
course any one can send for liquor
and the express agent would be in
no wise culpable should the package
be delivered to the rightful owner.
All right minded people are anxious
that the law should be obeyed and
our citizenship is loyal enough to
stand by the mayor and county at
torney in their fight for law enforce
ment.-Dodge City Journal Dem

SWEARING

is very mean habit; it's profane, and anyone who is accustomed to swearing is never welcome in decent company. It certainly is very ob- noxious to be compelled to listen to such. But the word SWEAR has an- other meaning. For instance, as in attestation of the truth of declara- tion of ones intentions to keep good faith. Then again if a person wishes to swear off" drinking anything for one year, only good tea, coffee and buttermilk (the kind we sell we mean) that's the time there's no harm in swearing. We have heard of a woman who long time ago sold intoXicants here in Waterbury. It was before license was heard of. She sold it while her husband worked all day. One day the good clergy man called to have her stop selling it, and she said it was no sin so long as she didn't put water in it like all the other dealers. But the clergy man laughed and said she was wrong in both instances. First, she should be ashamed of herself for selling the
 
 thought she would commit sin by putting water in it she was entirely off" because as he claimed it was no sin to water it, and the more water the better. and if she sold it all water it would be better still, in fact it would be what is known as God-send. She then and there ''swore off," and beginning 1908 we appeal to every one who drinks poor tea or coffee, or worse still, any kind of intoXicant, to swear off" and call at our store and buy some of the kind of tea and coffee, yes, and but termilk, that's sold at

and may make temporary repairs with
out notifying the board
The cities and towns pay for the
cost of maintenance up to $50 mile
a year. Any expenditure in excess
of this amount a mile is borne by the
commonwealth.
THE cost of the state roads varies
widely in different parts of the state,
but an average cost of all the state
roads is fair. This for 1906 was $6,742
a mile. Other states have built
macadam roads for less, but they may
have been favored in getting cheaper
materials and with cheaper labor. We
pay 81 a day for our cheapest labor
and the working day is but eight hours.
There are 10000 miles of road in
Massachusetts, 1900 outside the
cities. Ten per cent of these are
main roads, and the commission will
eventually build that 10 per cent.
Massachusetts will then have LOO
miles of state highway, more than
equal to half the distance across the
continent

IN ANTHROPOLO
iSUBJECT NEVER HAS BEEN
! TAUGHT AT WISCONSIN.
University Appoints Mr.. Charles r..
Halves Lecturer In Subject To Con-
duct Six Courses, Three Each Sc
mester-Lecturer Has Travelled
Widely.
Madison, Oct. 16.

Madison, Oct. 16.
The department of political economy
has announced a course in anthropoI-
ogy for the coming year. The sub
ject never has been taught at Wiscon-
sin, but the scientific study of man
has been pushed with such success of
late years that the university has
made provision for it by appointing
Mr.. Charles H. Halves, lecturer in an
thropology.
Mr.. Halves, who comes from Cam
bridge university, England, is an ex-
.perienced and widely travelled man.
In 1904 Mr.. Halves visited Crete for
the Cretan committee of the British
association, and in the course of his
four months visit, he travelled over
the entire island and made about 49,
600 measurements on the inhabitants.
He is now studying those data to as
certain what differences exist in diff
ferent parts of the island, and to COM
pare the physical characters of the an
cient and modern Cretan and neigh
boring peoples.
Mr.. Halves has seen a large variety
of races and peoples in Europe, Asia,
and Oceanica, and has made particu-
lar study of the primitive tribes of
Sakhalin and of the social conditions
of the white people Of that island. A
book, THE Uttermost East" has ap-
peared from the pen of Mr.. Halves,
besides a number of articles, among
which may be mentioned Excavations
at Palaikastro," Among the Insur-
gents ard Brigands of Crete" "An L.
land of Murderers" and Among the
Berirats." Mr.. Halves has also had
wide experience as a lecturer, having
appeared before the British associa-
ton, the Anthropological Institute of
Great Britain, the Royal Scottish and
other geographic societies of Great
Britain, the Cambridge Antiquarian So
ciety, the Cambridge Anthropological
club, the American AnthropolOgical
association, the American GeOgrapnl-
cal society, the Geological and An
thropoIogical sections of Harvard uni
versity and the department of educa
ton. Anthropology has an especial
claim on the attention of American
students in view of the light it throws
on domestic race perplexities, on immi,
grafton problems, and on the race
questions that present themselves in
American insular possession and in
connection with the extension OF
American foreign trade.
A total of six courses will be Of
| fered to Wisconsin students, three
each semester. Two of the courses
will be for undergraduates, two for
graduates and undergraduates and
two primarily for graduates.

reaching the heart, which would
prove fatal. The other bullet is still
in the lower part of the body, but
does not appear to give Sauter much
