Thirkied. now playing fullback for
Central, is the smallest man that has held
down this position for the Blue and White
squad. He won the position on account
of his speed and grit. Thirkield is also a

more weight should prove valuable man

AS Cy Macdonald is a former Central
High foot ball player he will refrain from
,,mpiriny any of the high school games in
which the Centralites are one of the con-

that he might favor the Blue and White

Settled the Duel.

Lord March. afterward the Marquis of Queensberry, was not accustomed
 to view a duel with unbecoming ap- prehension and usually attended an afrair with an air of enjoyment that often was decidedly dispIeasing and embarrassing to his adversary. But he was served at last with that sauce which the proverb explains is for the gander as well as for the goose. It was when he was challenged to fight an Irish sportsman Lord March ap- peared on the ground accompanied by a second, surgeon and other witnesses. His opponent arrived soon afterward with a similar retinue, but added to by a person who staggered under the weight of polished oak coffin. which he deposited on the ground, end up. with its lid facing Lord March and his party. Lord March became decidedly uncomfortable when he read the in- scription plate. engraved with his own name and title and the date and year of death. and peace was patched up.

. A Woman. Ag.7 Forget it.

Man has no right to question wo- mans age-tc even think about 1t. A woman. bless her, is as old as she makes out or makes up and not a day older. Man Is out of his latitude when he begins trying to locate wo- mans age longitude. 1t Is her privi- lege to conceal her age in any form or manner she may choose, and 1t is mans prerogarfye to assist her as much as possible rather than hinder or question her In any way. Man owes it to himself to see that she Is sup piled with every means of concealing her age or any new wrinkle which she chooses to keep from the gaze of the overcurious public. Man is not sup posed to be young or beautiful He couldn't be if he wanted to be and wouldn't be if he could With woman 1t is different. She wants to- be and can be and is, whether she wants to be or not, and it is a whole lot better for her and for her adnirer or admir- CTS, as the case may be, that her age be carefully guarded under that charming veil of mystery which should ever be hers by right of possession Forget that she has an age, brother, and you will be happier, and so will she, but don't, for heavens sake, for get that she has a birthday.-Boston Herald

The o..eendina Scale.

@The first letter John ever wrote to me-" said a married woman to her friend, twas shortly after we had be- come acquainted and before there was really anything like an understanding between us. This Is the way he signed 1t:
 yours. my dear Miss Weston. most sincerely,
 JOHN HAMILTON EASTON. '&There, you see, were ten words enough for a telegram-just to bring a commonplace friendly letter to an end But after we became engaged his first letter to me was signed in this way: "Yours. my darling. afrectionately.
 JOHN. That, you will observe. was re- duetion of 50 per cent from his conclu- sion as a mere friend. The first letter he ever wrote to me after we were married was signed:
 Yours. JOHN" She stopped for a moment and sighed and then continued:
 We have been married seventeen years now. Yesterday received a let ter from him. Here is the way 1t was signed:

Good Lookinq Brides Wanted.

Shortly after an angry looking couple hounced out of the chapel the pastor of an uptown church presented a per plexed countenance before the busy sexton
 "As you know" said he, "I am new in this parish and new in the city Perhaps there are a few things ought to know. Why. for instance. do so many people who never attend service in this church wish to be married here?
 Because our church." said the sex ton, ''has the name of turning out the youngest and handsomest brides in New York. Our reputation for. good works Is dwarfed by our reputation for beautiful brides. To say that a woman is married here is equivalent to saying that she is good looker.' We are not supposed to deal in brides of any other description"
 "No wonder" groaned the pastor, 'that that plain looking woman went away in a hun. earnestly advised her to be married in her own parish New York Globe.

A Wave of Water,

There is no necessary connection be- tween the advance of a wave and the forward movement of the water com posing if. as may be seen by running the fingers along the keys of piano. An inverted wave travels along, but the keys merely move up and down. Similarly a wave may often be ob- served running along the ripe ears of golden grain, while the stalks are firm ly rooted in the soil The onward progress of sea wave is easily per ceptible. and by watching some hghi substance floating on the surface the fact is revealed that the water is mol moving with the same velocity. - Chambers Journal

nuttsred Bread With Hi. Thumb.

Cats meat is the only survival of a way of serving meat that prevailed in this country before the introduction of forks, for it was the custom in mediaeval times to serve roast meat on n spit and to pass it around the table for each guest to cut off what he liked, a method that did not allow one person only to secure the carver's tit bits. In France one stil finds chicken hvers and bacon served on small spits, and to the Britisher. 1t always suggests at first sight the food of the domestic cat It is probable that many people continued to prefer fingers to table utensils, even after these were perfect ed and in general use, for knives were certainly invented at the period when Charles XII. chose to butter bis bread with his royal thumb.--London Chron- icIR

SAYS IRRIGATION
} WAS TOO DRY

Frank Atkinson proposes to see
if a real estate promotion company
can sell irrigated lands and then
fail to deliver the water He has
filed suit in the superior court
against the Interstate Irrigation
company, owners of the Hayden
lake irrigated tracts, for $3.50
damages for money invested in
land and Improvements, loss of
time and incidental expenses in
Cured in trying season of dry
farming at Hayden lake.
Atkinson alleges that there was
no water for irrigating until after
June 1. The contract stipulated
that the company should supply
water enough to wet the ground to
a depth of IL inches but Atkinson
complains that at no time was
there water enough to irrigate the
ground beyond an inch.
Atkinson says that he put up
buildings, made other improve
ments and spent time and money
trying to grow crops without sue
cess and then rendered the land
back to the company last Novem-
Der and demanded the return of
his money, as provided for under a
clause of the contract, but the COM
pany refused. z

H00RAY!!!!

City officials lined up on the
Monroe street bridge expense
question as the Washington Water
Power Co. desired them lined up
have found source Of justification
and actual inspiration in the dis
covery Of an additional and i'm.
mense concession to the public.
With it's own power and wires
and lamps the company will con-
descend to light the bridge, with
out including the lighting in the
automatic, seif-extending street
light franchise the company took
away from the council some time
ago. This additional to paying one
tenth the bridge cost in easy in
staiIments.
Proper public appreciation Of the
actual value of this concession, no
doubt secured through shirt sleeve
diplomacy, can be absorbed only
from realization of the fact that
the franchise under which the COM
pany is operating over the Monroe
street bridge, and which it hopes
to extend into eternity, already
provides for the lighting of the
bridge.

PRINTING TRUST
PLEADS FOR
MERCY

A representative of the job print
ers' association called on County
Commissioner Phillips yesterday
afternoon and inquired if the coun-
ty commissioners were intent on
disrupting the association. Mr..
Phillips said he had never heard
that the commissioners had any
such designs on the printers and
was sorry that they had formed
this impression.
COMMISSIONS Phillips further
stated that the county is willing to
pay living prices for it's work in all
lines, the same as any private cor
poration, but it does not want to
pay more. The best way the COM
missioners can determine that the
county is getting value received,
said Mr. Phillips, is by letting con.
tracts for county supplies to the
lowest bidders, and the only pro.
test that has been received thus far
against this plan is from the job
printers association.
The county commissioners ex.
pect eventually to award contracts
for all supplies, including printing,
for at least six months at a time.
In all probability these lettings will
be thrown open to bids from any
quarter
