SOLD PLANT TO SAVE 1T.

Lagrange Practically Wrecked Ia
Light and Water Plant.
The president Of the village Of In

The water and light plant In this
village was erected by a private cor
poration under a thirty year franchise
At the end Of the first ten year period
tho village exercised the privilege
which It had under the franchise and
bought the entire plant. The original
cost IL not known. We paid Tor agreed
to pay) the sum Of 100000 for 1t. Mu.
nicipal control and ownership were moi
successful. and after a few years II
was sold to q branch Of tho Edison
company. the consideration being that
the purchaser assume all obligations
standing against the plant and put II
In good order. Nothing had been paid
On the principal by the village.
The cost to the village for mean
descent street lights under the original
franchise was $40 q year. Under mu-
nicipal administration no one can tell.

the new purchaser has paid over $16a.

Reasons for selling-the village
could not raise the'money necessary to
rehabllitate the plant. Under our law
we could not pledge the corporate cred

about this tl:ne. while rambling in
the picturesque lane leading from Mer-

~ startling to two little fellows from
nine to ten years old. We were busily
engaged In picking wild strawberries,
which clustered In the hedgerows,
when We saw Mt about q hundred
yards distance pack Of at least
twenty weasels running from hedge to

being hunted. So. springing over the
nearest hedge. We ran across q pasture

bank, looked back toward. our assail-
ants. To our dismay we saw the whole
pack. with noses to ground. steadily
tracking our course. The word was
given. Run. rum and OF we scam
pered across another field to take up
our position on another hedge. Still
the pursuit was going on, and the crea-
lures were evidently gaining upon ~,

HOW TO LOSE MONEY.

Moiine's Experience Shows That Mu-
nieipaI Ownership 10 a Good Way.
Tho city clerk Of Moline. ILL.,, writes
as follows IN regard to the electric
light plant:
Original cost $4,000; terms. cash.
THE cost Of operating the plant
while owned by the city is very hard
to determine from the fact that the
plant was at that time operated In con-
nection with the waterworks. The
books show that appropriations were
made for both plants under one item.
'The reason for disposing of the
plant: The plant being what was then
known as the old United States sys-
tenn. which company had gone out Of
business, hence repairs for our plant
could not DO obtained, and as tho same
was about worn out the only thing.
therefore, tho council had to do was the
construction Of q new plant or to Light
the city under contract. The latter
was adopted for the reason that the
finances Of the city at tho time did not
allow the construction Of q new plant"
According to q local paper. the
amount invested in the plant at the
time It was sold was &25. $40. and the
selling price was $500. Tho city
went into the business because It was
claimed that lights could be run for
about two-thirds the price charged by
private company. Although 1900
candlepower lamps were used and
those ON moonlight schedule. the op-
Grating cost was found to be $54.50.
The addition Of interest depreciation.
etc. would have brought this up to
about 500. The present contract price
for 1000 candlepower lamps burning
all night Il $65.

n Peeecrtpeion That Worked Well IN
Philadelphia.
A haggard looking man strOlled into
q downtown drug store the other day
and asked the druggist for help. He
said he had trouble In getting to sleep
when he retired. No matter how
sleepy he might be during the day or
how much sleep he might have lost,
the moment his head touched the pill
low he was wide awake and lay thus
for several hours. Once asleep he was
very hard to waken. but he had to be
up at certain hour. and in conse-
Quence Of his peculiar afiiiction he was
losing more sleep than he could stand.

shells and winding among shores still

the woody headlands and across the
dark blue inlets came the sound Of
bells for afternoon church. Tom lay
on his back, his head beneath q Nor
folk island pine. his heels In the warm
sand Mt the waters edge. His eyes
were closed. but he was listening .
the bells.
He fancied the sound as $4,000
miles away, for so had he lain and
listened amid the Suffolk rabbit war
rcns on summer Sundays when bis
place was in the cool, dark rectory
pew. His spirit was In Suffolk now.
Then the bells stopped. Then he lay
very still. and when he turned he half
expected his back to smart and his
legs to Jingle. Once more he was a
fel0n In a felOn's country. 1t was that
despite sun and waves and soft white

for this his unmerited ease. As he
looked across the bay black I'm broke
