BUILDING OF BRIDGES.
Utility Should Go Hand In Hand With
Beauty In Public Structures.

1SookJ ~ dSltS S1
In the designing and building of
bridges art and utility should go hand
in hand, more especially if they are
public structures used and viewed by
great numbers of people each day in
the year. y large bridge may be made
just as beautiful or as unbeautiful as
may city halls, c~ourthouses and other
prominent public edifices. With all
the possibilities in this direction,
bridges Of the present often appear a
combination of strength and ugliness.
In the making of the city or town
beautiful an art commission is needed
that will not only watch I'VE the de-
signing and construction of city hall
and library, but pay equal attention to
city and town bridges.
1t often c u that a public bridge
provides an advantageous viewpoint
where great natural beauty may be
presented in a more impressive outlook
tlsn is possible from any other posi-
ton. In such places nan has no moral
right to mar the landscape with hid
eous examples of his handiwork.

Improving Poor Butter.

The best way to treat butter with an
Impaired flavor is to remelt 1t, air it,
reripen it and rechurn it. This is call
ed renovating. a process that is kept
more or less a secret. The next best
thing to do is to 'ladle'' it, which
means to thoroughly wash it in cold
water, then resalt and rework it. 1t is
very often necessary to color the salt
In order to get the butter Of a uniform
color. Neither of these processes will
produce good butter from bad, but
both will improve the flavor if proper

Brown on Pitching.

Mordecai Brown, star pitcher of the
Chicago Nationals, says "it is ten times
harder to pitch easy than to pitch
hard. That's a fact" added Brown.
Suppose you have worked vigorously
and have acquired a winning lead,
then they want you to let up and take
it easy. Well, it is harder to slacken
up and pitch a comparatively easy
game than to throw your arm out.
This may sound queer. but it's true"

OF Msnnerism.

Manncrism is ~pardonable and Is
sometimes wen agreeable when the
manner, though vicious, is natural.
Few readers. for example, would be
willing to part with the mannerism of

which does not sit easy on the
nerist, which has been adopted on
principle and which can be sustained
only by constant effort is always Of

PROPER COOLING OF MILK.
Danish Creamery Men Agitstins for
Water Tanks to Set the Cans
for Mcderating.

There is quite an agitation among
the Danish creamery men to encour-
age the milk producers to have water
tanks made through which the water
used for the stock is pumped, in
which the cans of milk are set for cool
ing.
This old American scheme is no
doubt great Improvement over let
ting the cans take care of themselves,
but it would seem that, while one is
about it. it would be as well to secure
one of the many excellent tubular or
other milk coolers whereby the milk
is cooled virtually instantaneously to
within two or three degrees of the wa.
ter used.
If the water pump is set going, be it
by hand or power, when milking is
commenced, a far better result is OBJ
tanned than when the cans are set in
a tank, where the cooling is much
slower, even if the milk is stirred
occasionally, which is but seldom
done.
OF course it is desirable to have a
tank with cold water in which to
place the cans when cooled, but as
the pump has to be used anyhow this
requires but little extra work.

SELLING Butter and Cream.

The advantages of selling cream or
butter over that of selling while milk
are that the SKINNED milk and butter
milk can be used for feed on the farm,
the work does not demand such exact
ing care and hours, and the finished
product can be marketer at wider in
tervals with very much less weight to
handle At the present high price of
hogs, the skinned milk and butter
milk are very valuable feeds for pigs.
Skinned milk for this purpose is
worth almost as much as it paid in
some places for the whole milk. The
hand separator on the farm makes it
possible to secure more butter and
to get greater value for the separated
milk

ISSUE OF BONDS HELD UP
Congress Will Be Asked to Change
Tax on Circulation.
SECRETARY M'VEAGH TELLS WHY
Would Be an Advantage to Banks to
Take New Bonds in Lieu of
OId-One-Year Certifi-
Gates May Issue.
SECRETARY M'vEAGH TELLS WHY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-None of the
new Panama bonds authorized by congress
at the session Just closed will be issued
before congress meets again and has had
an opportunity to change the existing cir
culation tax. Announcement to this effect
was made. in a statement issued by Secre-
tary Of the Treasury MacVeagh today. The
reasons for Withholding the new issue are
set forth by Secretary MacVeagh as fol-
lows:
Under existing law the tax on circula-
ton secured by 8 per cent bonds is l per
cent, while u per cent is the tax on cir
culation secured by ? per cent bonds. The
circulation privileges of the new bonds
would, therefore, be superior to those of
the ? per cent bonds and would produce
a discrimination against the latter"
The secretary feels that it is a duty OF
the government to see that the 2 per cent
bonds have the protection of a parity.
The conference committee concluded not to
readjust the circulation taxes at this time.
The Treasury department will, therefore.
sell only 3 per cent certificates, with a
term limited to one year, IL 1t shall become
necessary, before congress meets, to re-
plenish the treasury's cash.

KENOSHA, Wis, Aug. 6.-(Special Tele-

merly of Omaha, who disappeared from
his home here on July IA, was found
today at Sabula, Ia. 1t is understood
that he was at work in a button factory
when located.
Judge Clarkson was found by John
Burns, one of his close friends, who has
been searching for him since he left
kenoshs. Judge Clarkson, in Id
with Burns, took a train onigh and II
Is expected that he will arrive here to-
morrow morning.
Tn telegram telling of the finding OF
the man was brief and gave no details Of
his wanderings for the last three weeks
1t was only a few miles from sabula that
Judge Clarkson was found eighteen years
ago, when he disappeared from Omaha
under circumstances similar to the pres
ent case. After returning home to Omaha
Judge Clarkson could remember nothing
OF the weeks during which he was walk
ing about the country.
One Of the strange features of the case
is the influence which caused him to re-
trace the steps which he took on the
occasion OF his first disappearance The
clue which led the searchers to sabuls
was received in Kenosha yesterday and
Burns at once set out to find his friend.
Clarkson was judge Of the superior court
here for several years, but after retiring
from the bench he did not engage in active
practice.
Mrs Clarkson, who has been almost pros
trated since the disappearance OF her hus-
band, expressed great joy at the news
that he was safe and we'll.
