Shakespeare on Love.
They love least that let men know
their love.
Too light winning makes the prize
light
To be wise and love exceeds mans
might.
At lovers perjuries they say Jove
laughs.
By love the young and tender wit is
turned to folly.
Love sought Is good, but given I'M
sought is better.
There's beggary in the love that can
be reckoned.
One who loved not wisely, but too
we'll.
Base men, being in love. have then
a nobility in their natures more than
is native to them.
Love that has nothing but beauty to
keep it in health is short lived.

consideration. He said that the mayor, the city attorney and the city engineer had spent several weeks on this matter and that the assurances the board has from them that the con ditions are the best that can be had ought to satisfy everybody that there is no use in further delay.
 This brought Alderman Hayes to his feet again. This time to assure them that the word of the mayor and the city attorney were not sufficient for him. He wanted to see for him- self what the city is getting from this modern octopus that does not hesi- tate to encroach upon the rights of the national government. A cor poration that does not hesitate to take advantage of the government Of the United States" said the alderman from the fifth, would not be in any way backward about invading the rights of the people of Waterbury. We are here to guard the interests of all the people of this town and the only way We can discharge that obli- gation faithfully is by making a thor ough investigation before taking final action upon what comes before us."
 The chairman sustained the posi- tion taken by Alderman Hayes, and after some further remarks by R. P. Lewis and City Attorney Kellogg the matter went over for one week.
 It was voted to take an outing Friday afternoon, starting from the city hall at 3 o'clock and look over the ground covered by the applica- tion for trolley extension and double tracks. Sheriff Smith was requested to secure means of transportation.
 The recommendation of the board of public works relative to the layout of Meadow street, the estimated ex- pense being $36,000, was read and referred to the bureau of assess ment. The recommendation of the board of safety for authority to rent an au- tomobile for use in the department was tabled for week on objection to immediate consideration by Alderman Fitzsimmons. Alderman Hayes said he thought that thing was buried after what happened it at the last meeting. The meeting then adjourned.

THE POLICE COURT.
$f9 and Costs for Holding Eagle
 Brewing Company's Goods,

Tn the city court to-day Mrs Mary Barberi of Simonsville was charged with detaining property belonging to the Eagle Brewing company. T. H. Hayes and T. F. Finnegan, off, cers of the company, testified to find- ing a quarter barrel in the woman's grocery store, and that she refused to surrender 1t. Mir Hayes added that the company's annual loss in property of this kind amounts to about $5,000. The woman's defense was that the barrel was on the property when she bought 1t three years ago. In disposing of the case Judge Burpee said there was no al- formative left him but to impose a fine, that the statute under which the complaint was brought is arbi- trary and makes 1t even dangerous to buy bottled beer unless the buyer returns the bottles almost immedi- ately after the purchase. A fine of s10 and costs was imposed and an appeal taken to the district court.
 Frank and Jennie Stewart, hus- band and wife, were arrested on Bank street about midnight for in- toxication. Each was fined s5 and cos.s.
 Jacob Kuchta was charged with non-support of his wife and family. The mans wife testified that he promised he would pay her s5 a week if she would leave him. As they were not getting along we'll to-
 
 reduced the promised amount to ss and paid it only one week. He was ordered to pay s5 a week.

CHANDLER PLEASED.
Passage of Publicity Bill Calls Forth Words of Praise.

Washington, May ,26.-Former Senator William E. Chandler of New Hampshire has written letter to committee on privileges and cleo tions, expressing his pleasure at the passage hy the house of a publicity bill.
 MT Chandler's letter, under date of yesterday, follows:
 Dear Sir: I notice the passage through the house of publicity bill 20,112 which denotes sanity and pro- gress of certain kind, which, how ever. needs completion and perfection to make 1t what Secretary Taft will doubtless write to you privately he wished it to be.
 But did not think it wise to em- barrass publicity bill by adding thereto a federal election bill. If this must be done, 1t will be expedi- ent to re-enact all the old laws and enforce them. To enforce the four teenth amendment in way to aban- don and make obsolete the fifteenth amendment would be unjust to the colored citizens. So if the election features are to stay in bill 20,112, advise the addition of clause repeal ing the act of February 8. 1904, and re-enacting all the federal election statutes. (See Congressional Rec ord of February z, 1904.l 4
 As a publicity and federal cleo tion bill has passed the house it will be injurious to the republican party if congress does not stay in session long enough to completely adopt it, so that it will apply during the conl- ing canvass.
 Very respectfully,
 WILLIAM E. CHANDLER.

Homesteader NesIects to Take His
Bride to Live on Land.
Because he got married Herman A.
Strut, who has land in the Bismarck
land district, lost his claim. This
procedure is so contrary to the Roose.
welt family theory that an appeal has
been taken to the general land office
by counsel for Strutz.
Strutz, who Is now a resident of
Grand Forks, fled on the claim on
Nov. -, 1901 On July 81, 1903, he
made final proof. His final proof was
ordered suspended on May %, 1908,
and on Aug. 1, 1908, the Bismarck land
Office rescinded his claim to the land.
The defendant did not have an attor-
ney at his hearing. He asserted that
he es'zed the United States commits
sioner at the time he proved up If he
had right to do so, and was informed
that he had. He was single man
when he filed on the claim and spent
a good share Of his time on the land,
although he visited his invalid mother
at times.
Two weeks before he made final
proof he was married, and made the
fatal mistake of not taking his wife
on the land. For this reason the spe-
cial agent held up the final proof, in
spite of the evidence that it had been
made in good faith by Strutz.

NEW REVENUE FOR STATE.

North Dakota Secretary Demands Ii.
cense Fee Of IS From Ticket Agents.
Secretary Of State Blaisdell has sent
the following notice to railroad com.
panies operating in this state:
"Your attention is called to article
6, r. S. N. D., with special reference
to section 1909, providing for the
licensing Of all passenger ticket agents
and the issuing of a certificate by the
secretary of state upon the payment
of IS in each case and for the proper
posting Of such license.
"Your further attention is called to
section 4310, prohibiting the sale of
tickets without the issuance of such
certificate.
Your further attention is called to
section 4311, providing the penalty for
noncompliance, which is made pun
ishable by fine of not less than $500
or by imprisonment not exceeding one
year or either Or both in discretion
of the court.
please ascertain the number of
ticket agents Of your company now
selling tickets in this state and not
acting under the provisions of said
section 1909 in order that the law be
complied with and licenses be duly
issued"
The secretary on being interviewed
about the matter said: There is no
particular significance to the request.
The law is on the statute books, and
whether wise or not, it is not for me
to say-it means additional revenue
and the state should have the money"
