felt thankful that she never was to
know the truth.
At this time Bansemer lived in COM
fort at one of the middle class board
ing houses uptown, and the boy was
Just leaving the kindergarten for
private school. Bansemers callOused
heart had one tender chamber, and il
it dwelt the little lad with the fair
hair and gray eyes of the woman who
had died.
Late one November afternoon just
before Bansemer put on his light top
coat to leave the Office for the day
broom tapped on the glass panel Of
the door to his private office. Usually
the clerk communicated with him by
signal, a floor button by which he
could acquaint his master with much
that he ought to know, and the visitor
In the outer Office would be none the
wiser. The occasions were rare when
he went so far as to tap on the door.
Bansemer was puzzled and stealthily
listened for sounds from the other
side. Suddenly there came to his ears
the voices of women, mingled with
Droom's suppressed but always rau-
cous tones.
Bansemer opened the door. Looking
into the outer office, he saw broom
swaying before two women, rubbing
his hands and smiling. One of the
women carried a small babe in her
arms. Neither she nor her companion
seemed quite at ease in the presence
Of the lank guardian Of the outer office.

Weber's Prize Band of America. one
Of the finest concert organizations in
the West, will furnish the music for
the State Fair. Each OF Webers pro-
grams will be three hours long and be
made up entirely Of popular music. A
number of soloists will be heard. Mr..

how the State Fair management could

selection, which would give any par
ticular faction which might control
the state convention. an opportunity

A RANK FALSEHOOO

| During the last fourteen years only
| five deficiency levies have been made
/ In this state. During that time, the
| state paid off the Taylor defalcation
/ Of 1867 900 and a bonded debt Of about
! $500, 900. This means that with only
| five deficiency leves, the state in four
teen years paid off a debt of over a
million dollars. In the first two years
of Crawfordisn, there were two de-
ficiency leyies, and during that same
time the state will run in debt nearly
nalf million. How do the taxpayers
of the state like it?--Argus Leader.

Of county commissioners in making

found that not only We're the funds
depleted but that emergency county
warrants had 10 be issued TO pay the
running expenses Of the county.
These warrants accumulating until
the aggregate amounted to about $50,
600 which were drawing interest.
Then the board of commissioners
were obliged TO make an increased
levy in order 10 redeem the outstand-
ing warrants resulting from the un-
businesslike method pursued by the
previous boards. The taxpayers not
only had to finally pay the principal
sum but they also had to pay the in

not have been necessary to issue had
the boards of 1890 to 1894 not tried to
'economize.' The people then saw
the method of their ex-officials in its
true light just as they now see through
the methods employed by the stalwart
board in their attempt to hoodwink
the property holders
