THE VALUE OF A COMMA.


The editor believes that lie has talk
ed to you about the value of comma
citing as an illustration a certain re-
venue bill passed by congress, in
which the omission of a comma by
the enrolling clerk cost the govern
ment about two millions of dollars in
the loss of duties that SHOULD have
been collected according to the OBJ
ject of the act But here is an illus
tration of another kind: The trus-
tee of a country school was on his
rounds, and at one of his eXamina-
lions of the pupils the question was
raised as to the value of a comma.
This the trustee treated with some
thing like scorn, claiming that the
comma didn't amount to a row of
pins. The teacher who had, at vari-
GUS times, impressed its value on his
pupils. thereupon called on one of
the bright boys Of the school to give
an example of what he thought was
the commas value by writing a SEN
tcnce on the blackboard The boy
smiled at the teacher and promptly
wrote on the board, Henry Jones
says the trustee is a Ounce" Nat.
urally, the trustee got angry, and de-
manded that the teacher punish the
boy for his impertinence, But the
boy, with a word of apology, told the
teacher that his example was not
complete, Then he wrote, Henry
Jones, says the trustee, Is a Ounce
And the trustee had TO acknowledge
that the comma, after all, Is some
times a good thing 10 use

ment that telegram had been sent

more lumber would be shipped from
that port to this city unless the long

UNABLE TO
GET A VERDICT
Jury in the Hrsohberg Death Unable
to Determine st. Louis Mans
Death.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec. 1.-THE cor
oners jury which inquired into the
death of Francis ID, Hlrschberg re-
turned an open verdict Thursday af-
ternoon, after John M. Frost of Bards-
town, KY, brother-in-law, and Bar
rett Frost, nephew of the dead man,
had been shown the revolver found
in the hall and each had failed to
identify it as the property of Mr.
Hirschberg.
ITO the best of my knowledge
never saw that revolver before said
the elder Frost, and the young man
said that, although he had often seen
a revolver in his uncle's house when
he was a youth. he could not identify
the one shown him as being the same
gun.
The jury was unable to determine
whether the wound was self-infiicted
the result of an accident or had beer
otherwise received. This closed the
public investigation into the cause o
the death and left it as much mys
terry as 1t was on the morning tina
Hirschberg was shot The police still
insist that it was case of suicide
The members of the family say it wa.
accident or murder.

JUNK LICENSE
MUST BE PAID
Cases Against Bower and Schultz
Were Continued this Afternoon
in Superior Court.

.Junk dealers must pay license in
Keokuk of $25 per year as required
by the city ordinance, or $50 per year
for itinerant junking with a wagon.
Several days ago informations
were filed against Sam Bower and
Harry Schultz, charging them with do
ing Junk business without a license.
This afternoon their case was to
come up In the superior court, but
after consulting an attorney, they de-
cided not to fight the case, but to
pay the license required and the
cases were continued until they pay
when the information will be dismiss
ed
When the matter first came up,
there were loud cries from the junk
dealers about discrimination and that
the law was unconstitutional, but
their opinions changed after an at
torney had looked up the matter and
found that the city has perfect right
to pass such an ordinance.
The result of this case, will put a
number of shoe string junk men Out
of business, for s25 is as big as
million to number Of them.
