HOLDING BACK
viii Not Start Conduit System
Until the City Is Heard
From.
CONDUITS ARE ARRIVING.
EVERYTHING WILL SOON BE
READY FOR THE START ON THE
UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION
-TRACTlON ALSO LAYS PLANS.

Conduits in which the Central I'm
ion Telephone company and the West
ern Union Telegraph company, will
place their Main street wires, arrived
in the city yesterday and throughout
the day drays We're busy hauling them
to a storage place.
Just when the Central Union will
begin work installing the conduit syS-
tenn has not yet been decided. 1t is
probable that at the next meeting of
the board of public works, the matter
Of building a municipal conduit sys-
tenn will be taken up. City Engineer
Fred Charles is now making estimates
Oh the cost of such an improvement.
1t is almost an assured fact that the
board will decide not to place the
municipal plant wires on Main sire ct
underground, because it is thought
Mr.. Charles will find the cost of the
Improvement will be too great
If the board does take this action
then the Central Union company will
in all probability at once begin work
on its system. The company is now
holding off awaiting for the definite
action of the board, because if in the
almost improbable event that the city
and the Light, Heat 81 Power company
would install a conduit system ar
rangements for the placing of the two
conduits would have to be agreed up
on.
1t is quite probable that the Central
Union company will place its conduit
system on the south side of Main
street. The street car company will
take no action in complying with the
terms of the Main street pole Ordi-
nance, until all the wood poles are re
moved from the street. The compa-
ny will then attach it's trolley wires, in
compliance with the ordinance to iron
poles.

A FAMOUS DANGER.
Sir Christopher Hatton Won Royal
Honors by His Grace.

HOnOrs by His Grace.
In Queen Bess' time Sir Christopher
HattOn won his way 10 the lord chan
cellorship by his ability or agility in
terpsichorean lines. He first attra cted
the notice of Queen Elizabeth by his
graceful dancing in Il mask at court
He henceforth became a reigning ia
vorite, and his promotion was rapid.
He was successfully made a gentle
man of the queens privy chamber,
captain of the board of gentlemen pen
sioners the bodyguard), vice chamber
lain and a member of the privy coun-
Gil. This delight of the queen to honor
him caused much envy. Complaints
were uttered that under the existing
government nothing could be obtained
by any others than dancers and car
pet knights, such as the Earl of Lin
coin and Master Hatton." On the
death of Lord Chancellor Bromley the
queen offered Hatton the great seal.
Even while chancellor Sir Christopher
exhibited his skill in dancing. Attend
ing the marriage of his nephew and
heir with a judges daughter, he was
decked, according to the custom of the
age, in his official robes, and when the
music struck up he DOTTED them, threw
them down on the floor and saying,
Lie there, Mr.. Chancellor"' danced
the measures of the nuptial festivity.-

How to Prevent Coughing.

Coughing is the worst thing for a
cough. and in most instances of cough
there is more coughing than is neces-
sary to subserve the purpose of the
cough. e. to remove offending ma
tcrial. The following conditions will
help one minimize coughing in all in
stances, while in the milder cases it
may stop the cough altogether after u
little perseverance: When tempted TO
cough take a deep breath. filing if pos
sible every air cell. holding it until the
warming. soothing effect comes or SO
long as is reasonable, and mark the
modifying result on the cough, which,
even when the latter seems unavoid-
able, will often be found under control.

BLENDING SPIRITS.
Curious Results Obtained by Mixing
whisky and Water.

Some curious results are shown by
one-quarter gallons of high proof spirits
and add twenty-five and one fourth
gallons of water, and, strange to say,
you have forty gallons, and not forty
one and one-half, as one would natu-
rally suppose This is reasonably eX-
planned by the large globules of the
spirit absorbing the small globules of
water, thereby lessening the volume of
wine gallons.
Here is another phenomenon: Take
equal parts of whisky and water, each
at temperature of 20 degrees +. Mix
them and the tempera ture rises at once
to so degrees.
If two barrels of whisky are placed
under a roof, one with the bung in and
the other with it out, the former will
gain in proof, while the latter will lose.
This is due to the fact that when the
bung is i'll there is no evaporation. but
the barrel abSorbS the water much fast
er than it does the whisky. When the
bung is out there is evaporation, and
the spirit evaporates easier than the
water.
These are q few of the facts that an
old rectifier who can neither read nor
write has gathered in fifty years of ex-
perience as a cellar man. He keeps
trace of his liquors by their marks,
and, strange to say, he can read his
gauges and thermometers with accu-
racy and is curious and exact in his
knowledge of chemistry as. applying to
his trade-New York Press.

Tried the Effect of a Title.

Among the neighbors who annoyed
Carlyle none perhaps gave him so
much trouble as the boys who played
about near his house. They made no
. secret of their dislike of the philoso-
pher and stood in dread of his stick
when he went abroad. James Waylen
who did a great part of the research
for the CROMWELL and who was at
Carlyle's house almost daily, was one
morning standing on the doorstep of
the house in Cheyne row waiting to
be let in when one of these young
urchins came up to him in a deferen-
tial manner, and. touching his cap,
said: please. sir, would you ask
Lord Carlyle to give me my top? It's
tumbled down his airey." During the
mornings work Carlyle and Waylen
chuckled together over the conciliatory
title which the lad had created for his
enemy.

Americas Mediterranean and Its
Promise For the Future.
The gulf of Mexico is a sea 1000
miles long from the straits of Florida
to the harbor of Tampico and 800
miles wide from the mouth of the
Mississippi river TO the mouth of the
Coatzacoalcos.
This Mediterranean of the west is
surrounded by countries of extraordi-
nary richness in the fertility of their
soil, the geniality of their climates,
the vastness and value of their for
ests and the variety and extent of
their mineral endowments.
All these countries, capable of sus-
tanning hundreds of millions of people,
are inhab ted by nations and races
who live under republican forms of
government and cherish and maintain
free institutions. The northern coast
line of this important sea is in the
great republic of the United States Of
North America. The southern half is
in the next greatest American repub-
tic, that of Mexico, while on the east
are the important islands of the West
region around this most important sea
Is destined to be far richer, more pow
erful and more distinguished in the
history and affairs of our globe than
were ever those that bordered the
ancient Mediterranean of the eastern
hemisphere, not even excepting Egypt,
