on Council to Give Their Request

Residents OF the north end OF the

OF fire department In that end of
the city. AT the last session OF the
city council Monday evening peu-
ton for a department was present
ed by j. Hurley, but the council in
considering the lack OF money TO
carry on any new enterprises did not
fully consider the want. Mr.. Hurley
has been busy since arousing en-
thustasm in the apparent need OF
the improvement and he Is not
alone In his arguments.
Especially Is a department needed
In the section north of Playground
street on State street. Here there
are a number of dwellings, which
are more or less In danger at times
OF being completely wiped out by
fire, there being no water at hand
nor facilities for extingulshing a
fire. The residents urge an extern
tion of the water mains and the
building of a small but efficient
department In that end of the city
The residents state that they do
not desire any great expense in the
present financial difficulty but as
the need OF the improvement arises
the money must be spent at some
time owing to the rapid growth OF
that section OF the city.
The various officials OF the city

Mr. Dickinson has been a prominent
figure in the affairs of this county
for a number of years, and stands
high in the esteem of his fellow citi-

elector from this congressional dis

elected the second time. He has not
been chronic seeker after office, al
though he has been active in politics,
devoting his energies toward the
shaping of the party's policy and the

GOOD ROADS.

The split log drag should have a
monument as high as the skies erect
ed to it. If mans ever faithful and
accomplishing burden bearer, the
horse, could build no doubt one would
be erected. Before the advent of
the drag the horse YEARLY dragged
his load over the rough hills and
miry lowlands. Now he walks with
high head and proud step over road
bed as smooth as a paved street of
city. Great is the split log drag. And

sressive is the man that persistently

that note was the man who brought

sheet of paper?"
II examined the ground carefully in
the hope of finding it," said the in
spector.
1T was torn out of the dead mans
hand. Why was some one so anxious
to get possession of it? Because 1t in
eliminated him. And what would he
do with it? Thrust it into his pocket,
most likely, never noticing that a cor
ner of it had been left in the grip of
the corpse. If We could get the rest of
that sheet it is obvious that we should
have gone a long way towards solving
the mystery"

well. well, it was worth thinking
over. Then there is another obvious
point. The note was sent to William.
The man who wrote It could not have

have delivered his wi message by

then? Or did it come through the

FOR DAMP SHOES.

1t is almost impossible in winter to
keep shoes from getting wet. This
means ruination to the leather unless
care is taken to preserve it. Do not at
tempt to dry the shoes near the fire, or
to put them in the oven. Instead wipe
off the mud with a damp cloth. rub in
vaseline or lard, and stand the shoes in
a cool place for several days. 1t will be
found hat much of the natural oil has
been restored.
If you have shoe trees, put the shoes
on them before applying the grease. II
not, stufing them with bran will help to
absorb the dampness.

BAKED BEANS AND PORK.

Wash and pick carefully one
quart of white beans. Soak for
one hour in cold water, then put
them on to boil in water sufi-
cient to cover them.
When they come to a boil, pour
off the water and add fresh cold
water. Boil until nearly done,
then pour off the water again
and put them in a deep pan.
Have ready one pound of
picked pork which has been
soaked in cold water for three
hours, then stewed until tender.
Cash the pork and put it in the
dish with the beans, season with
pepper and salt, and pour over
the top one pint of the water in
which the meat was stewed.
Bake until the beans are soft
and the meat done.
