RECKLESS AARON BURR. (
The Dramatic Story of His Marriage
In Old Age.

The Dramatic Story Of His Marriage
ii In Old Age.
The story VI Aaron Burr's marriage
In his old age to the widow Of Stephen
Jumel, who was well known In the,
early history Of New York city, is a
dramatic one
Conceive, If Vou will, the picture Of
Burr, gifted adyenturer that he was,
broken in health, branded in the popu-
lar mind as the murderer Of Alexander
Hamilton and returning from long
exile to find himself an outcast in the
city where he had once been the polit-
ical monarch Of all he surveyed and
distinguished figure in society and at
the bar. Conceive, If you can, this
his wrinkles, bowling and prancingl
rather stifdy because Of his rheumatic,
joints and with his mouth full of pref
ty platitudes, paying court to the wild
ow of Stephen Jumel, herself in the
prime of years and health. Remove
from the picture its surface incongrui-
ties, and you have a bit of pure pathos

But something of his old time pow

Stones and Glass Houses.

The origin Of the saying, "Those who
live in glass houses should not throw
stones" is as follows: At the time Of
the union of England and Scotland
London was inundated with Scotch
men, and the London roughs used to
60 about at night breaking their VIM
dows. Buckingham being considered
the chief instigator Of the mischief, a
party of Scotchmen smashed the win
dows of the dukes mansion. known as
the Glass House. The court favorite
appealed to the king, who replied,
"Steenig> Steenie, those who live In
glass houses should be careful how
they fling stones!-New York Ameri.

Wise Talk by the Office Boy

i You can take my word for it
whatever a fellow hopes to be he will
be, unless he gets on the wrong car.
Whenever hear one of those world
ly wise gents using that expression,
where do get off," always feel
like edging up and saying, "put him
off at Apple Creek because he will
then know just where he is going
to get off. We know that he will get
off better than he expected for the
simple reason the we are primed to
the muzzle with new and seasonable
goods and we don't care how soon
the people know it. Times are inn
proving, business is improving, peo-
pie are improving, everything is i'm
proving except the weather, and you
can't improve that because it wasn't
made to be bossed around. You'll
want to see us If you are building;
if you're not, come in anyhow and
see the happy faces of the people who
are getting wise. .as.. n

$3.50. 81 pounds of butter which, with
the skim milk. was valued at $50 81.
The cost of feed was $33 "a, which
leaves net profit of $54. or. The
Holstein low, Johanna, stood at the
head OF the herd in economic produc-
tion, as she is credited with net
profit of sos. 81.
These figures are mainly valuable
as indications of the possibilities in
proper dairy management. Of course.
only few men can handle their herds
as handled at our colleges and ex.
pertinent station, but that is not
necessary. Any farmer, however. can
manage his herd with a view to
economic production which after all
is the main consideration. Sound
business principles applied to the
business of dairying will be as pro-
ductive of results as in any line.

No State Taxes Necessary.

1t has again been found unnecessary
to levy a state tax in Wisconsin, and
only the usual tax of $l57, $40 to pay
the interest on ths bonded indebted
ness which has regularly been levied
since the Indebtedness was incurred
during the evil war will be collected.
In accol dance with discretionary
power conferred by law, Gov. David
son, Secretary of State Frear and
State Treasurer Dahl at a meeting
held last Thursday removed the
necessity for levying a state tax by
transferring from the general fund to
the capitol building fund the sum of
$3.50, 900. the amount which the last
Legislature provided should be raised
by special state tax this year to help
erect the new statehouse. This was
done because the general fund now
has ST., 563. 457 so that $3.50. 5000 can
be taken from it without any Iikeli-
hood of its being exhaused by the de-
mands made upon it during the COM
ing year.

KOPP GETS GOOD HOUSE.
Speaks Ably to Large Audience in Opera
HaII-TeIIs Where He Stands.

Arthur w. Kopp republican can
didate for congress /flom the Third
district. spoke to a good sized audi
ence at the Opera house, Saturday
night. Republicans generally are
more than pleased with the impress
sion left with those who were fort
u ate enough to hear him. His
speech showed thorough mastering of
the important issues at hand. The
speaker puuctured the proposed Bryan
ferrous guarantee of bank deposits so
full of holes that it didn't hold the
first suspicion of economic plausi
bility. Mr. Kopp showed that the
proposed law would work hardships
upon the consecutive bankers who
would be compelled to hold up the
wild speculative banking institutions
of Wall street and other large cities.
Mr.. Kopp, upon request, put him
self on record regarding the speaker
ship cf the house. in declaring he
would. if elected, oppose Cannon's
election to that position. This Was
expected inasmuch as his platform,
published two months before the pIim-
airy, SO declared The speaker also
handled the trust and tariff questions
in a credit nale manner proving be-
yond possible doubt that the ecent
evils can be and will be more quick
~ remedied under republican adj
ministration than can be hoped for
under the proposed democratic plat
form of this campaign.
His arguments were convincing and
no doubt many clouded mind went
home with the resolve to vote the
ticket straight and cinch another four
years of prosperity and business &C
tivity.
He pointed out the numerous re-
forms obtained in state and nation
during the past seven years, all of
which have been given to the people
by means of republican progressive
administrations. His splendid speech
will prove of great advantage to the
"straight republican ticket. Vernon

To Place Picture MoIdina.

A picture holding adds much to the
attractiveness of a room if it be well
placed. There are several fixed rules
for this placing, it is well to know:
Consider the architectural lines of
the room.
With a low ceiling put it in the
angle; with a high one, on line with
the tops of the doors.
Sometimes the molding looks bet
ter in line with the tops of the win
dows. Hold it to beth aud judge for
yourself.
A plate rail in dining room or IL
brary can go at the height Of the di-
vision of the window sash.
Have the molding harmonic either
with the woodwork or the paper.
