Friday Comes but Once a Week


Friday is the weekly fraud. Every
thing goes wrapper jawed, and the sail
or man who sails finds himself food for
whales, and the man who killed a
friend on Friday meets his end. On
Friday trade is slack, all the trains
run off the track; William Doe, to his
amaze, draws $40 and ten days; brick
bats fall from buildings high, break
your neck and make you cry; fevers,
fires and frosts abound, earthquakes
come and snort around. Old Subscrib-
er in pet comes to swear at the Ca
zette. Every one is feeling blue, ev-
erything is hind end to, yet some COM
fort we may seek. Friday comes but
once a week.-Emporia Gazette.

LUMBER COSTS LESS.
Reduction in Prices Of From 81 to So
Per Thousand.

Reduction in Prices Of From 81 to So
Per Thousand.
Prices of pine. lumber have been
slashed by the Weyerhaeuser inter-
ests 81 to So thousand. Prevailing
conditions are such that it was felt
that these reductions could be made
and are liable to stay in for tue ensu-
ing year.
One of the reasons given for max
ing the reductions is that it is cheap
er to conduct logging operations this
winter on account of lower wages be-
ing paid. The prices Of other com.
modities have come down and it was
felt that lumber should come down
likewise. 1t is expected that the
reductions will stimulate building op-
erations considerably this year.

 Under no conditions do we want McGinnity We are looking to the future campaigns and not merely 10 next season We want younger men. ones that can be taken i'll a crude shape and developed into classy players. I don't desire Slagle of Chicago who is being talked or as a member of the St Louis club for the coming season.
