In support Of their charge the Jacks as

things on the train, you know, and would

Z. E. Howell, member of the Jim ar

but he says he knows nothing about il
and doubts the assertion that expense
mOney is being offered.
Il wish ii were so, though says Mr..
Howell, but I know the local club has
no money for anything Of the kind. It
would be fine II the expenses could be
paid as that would mean a whooper Of a

The report comes from Denver that Mayor
"Jim" Is seeking TO make arrangements

other power will pay the cost OF running

Maiden Insurance.

The Maiden Insurance company is a
singular Denmark institution. 1t is
confined to the nobility, and the noble
man, as soon as female child is born
to him, enrolls her name on the COM
pany's books and pays in a certain
sum and thereafter a fixed annual
amount to the treasury. When the
young girl has reached the age of
twenty-one she is entitled to fixed
income and to an elegant suit Of apart
ments, and this income and this resi-
dence, both almost princely, are hers
until she either marries or dies. The
society has existed for generations. 1t
has always prospered. Thanks to it,
poverty stricken old maids are un-
known among the Denmark nobility,
but every maiden lady is rich and
happy. >

Slang Of the Army.

In the army. there are expressions
peculiar to itself. Heard for the first
time by outsiders, they need interpre-
tation. Among the most common are
'hike'' for march striker for o
soldier serving as bodyservant or house
man for an officer, &c. O." for .'com.
handing officer" and 80. D." for '.of.
ficer of the day." "hop" and ''hoproom'
for dance" and dancing room.
"citz clothes for civilian Dress
"commissaries'' for groceries, .cof-
fee cooler for an officer who is al
ways looking for an easy job in some
staff position, found" when an officer
fails to pass his examinations and
''shavetail'' for a youngster just out of
West Point Among the soldiers the
expressions have multiplied until quite
d vocabulary Of strange words has
been established. "BobtaiP' is, a dis
honorable discharge. Orderly bucker''
is soldier who, when going on guard
duty, strives by extra neatness Of ap-
pearance to be appointed orderly to
one Of the officers. DOG robber'' is
the soldiers contemptuous expression
for "striker"-Leslie's Weekly.

Talked Too Much.

In a certain village Of New Hamp-
shire there is a quaint old character
known as Boss Mellin keenly alive to
the truth of the old saying, ''Silence is
golden" Mellin's gift in this respect
approaches genius, though he was full
ly aware of what he deemed his short
comings therein.
Mellin used to make mattresses for
a living. One day a native of the place
entered his shop and asked, BOSS,
what's the best kind Of mattress?"
"Husks," was the laconic response of
Boss.
Twenty years later, SO runs the ira
dition, the same man again entered the
shop and again asked what, in the
opinion of Mellin, was the best kind of
a mattress.
STRAW" said Boss.
STRAW? You told me husks was the
best!'

The Huntsman's Mass.

"Once every year, on ST. Huberts
day, one may see hundreds of dogs in
the Cathedral of Notre Dame at Brus-
sells. At the huntsmans mass on that
day the owners of hunting dogs take
the animals to church with them,

The annual meeting of the STOCKHOLM
ers Of the Fort Atkinson Canning Com
pany, held at the Hoard Rifles Armory
Tuesday afternoon, was marked by an
unusually cheerful tone, owing to the
fact that this seasons work had PANIED
out the best Of any in its history. The
factory never made money 10 anything
for which it was originally equipped,
viz: tomatoes corn ard sour kraut. 1t
has been proved after due trial that peas
are the best crop to pack here and every
change or extension has been made along
this line. This season the pack will be
so per cent larger than last year, necessi-
tating over thousand dollars worth of
improvements to accommodate it. The
history of the factory is unique in sew
eral respects. Installed by an imprac-
ticable promoter and blasted later by
his unbusinesslike management, the di-
rectors took hold and backed the com
panys paper at the bank with their own
names to the extent of $4,000 to $4,000
each year. Had it not been for this he
roic action of the board of directors
many of whom had but share or two
in the concern, the capital stock would
not have been worth cent, whereas il
is worth par today. Ten per cent of the
debt of S12 500 was wiped out last year
and another 80 per cent will he paid of
this year. This will leave but $1,000 o.
indebtedness which another season viii
probably clear off the slate. The factory
has been improved each year until it il
now worth double what it was when thu
stock was issued. 1t is safe prediction
that if the present management contin
ues the stockholders will receive back il
dividends the amount of their stock sub
scriptions and this in very few years.
