Water Tank Fell.

With a crash that could be heard
plainly for several blocks the monster
water tank standing about 100 yards
west of the Katy railway station col
lapsed last night about eight o'clock,
says the Fl. Scott Tribune. The big
tub shaped apparatus which contained
fifty thousand gallons of water, was
not known to be out of order, and its
crashing to earth was a great surprise
to the Katy people here. The noise
the crashing of the timbers made
created a great deal Of excitement and
at first the general belief was that
the Katy railway bridge had gone
down. The amount Of water contain
ed in the big vessel rushed in a tor
rent to the river and increased the
flow Of that turbulent stream. The
officials here at once sent a call for a
construction gang and work was
started today to rebuild the big tank.
The company managed to procure
water elsewhere today but hopes to
have the tank in operation in a day
or two.

The Missouri SenatOrship.

There is both political wisdom and
party loyalty in the attitude State
Senator Humphrey assumes toward
the United States Senatorship which
the Democratic and Republican par
ties will contend for in the election
for the Legislature next year. 80
"Let us be Democrats first and
office-seekers afterwards" says Mr..
Humphrey. This should be the guild
ing motto of the Democratic party of
Missouri in choosing its candidate.
There are many Democrats who by
their ability, honesty and fidelity are
qualified to serve Missouri well in the
Senate at Washington. Only one of
them can be chosen.
In making the choice the test ap-
piled should be not which one is most
eager to accept the honor, but which
one possesses in the largest degree
the confidence and loyalty of the vot-
ing masses of the party. In order to
win next year the Missouri De-
mocracy must put forward its strong
est men as candidates for all the Of
fees to be filled, the lowest as well
as the highest.
Senator Humphrey is eminently
correct in his position that it would
be premature for any man to an
nounce his candidacy for the United
States Senate at this time. Before
the senatorial primary is held at the
general election Of next year there
should be well-defined consensus
opinion among the Democrats of the
State as to the strongest and most
available candidate for the nominal
ton, in order that party faction may
be avoided and the popular choice
selected without disturbance of party
harmony.
Mr.. Humphrey describes the situ-
alton aptly in his expression of dis
belief that any thoughtful conserva-

In accordance with the ordinance re.
Gently passed by the city council, pro.
hibitlng the street railway company
from building sidetracks or switches
along its lines without first gaining the
consent of the proper city officials, the
company made request to be allowed
to construct sidetrack between the
town line road and Lincoln street.
After due consideration the request was
refused by the board of public works
for the reason that the company al
ready has two switches at the lower
end of the avenue and the board saw
no necessity for third, Perhaps the
street railway company has the right to
put in switch in every block accord
ing to its franchise, but the better
thing to do is to use good judgment in
such matters

WlNNlNGERS TO QUIT ROAD.

Friends of the Winninger brothers,
actors who have played in Amigo,
yearly for some time, win be interested
in hearing that this is their last season
on the road in repertoire work. They
are to open 8 stock company theatre in
San Antonio, Texas, next season and
win play there exclusively.
While the Winningers have drawn
unusually large houses wherever they
have shown because of their meritorious
productions. Frank gives strong reason
why they have decided to abandon the
road for permanent location.
He says it has reached the point
throughout the country where mana
gers of theatres everywhere demand
such large percentage of receipts that it
is hard for the shows To break even, let
alone make the profit their work war
rants. Accordingly, he says, show
managers are getting discouraged aud

PUT A STOP TO 1T.

The PILoT has often spoken of the
"noodlem" element In Wausau; that
lawlessness among boys who have
reached the age when they should know
better, should be suppressed. 1t is be-
coming quite common for crowd of
boys to get out on some of the dark
streets, and brighten the inmates of
residences by throwing large stones on
their porches, breaking windows, over
turning anything that might be placed
upon lawns, maltreating children that
may step out of their homes, etc. Last
night, at one of the residences in our
city, small boy was sent to the drug
store after medicine; as soon as he was
little distance from home, he was
bounced on by half dozen large boys,
knocked down, dragged in the dirt and
his wheel taken from him and thrown
into the street. This same element that
infest our city is about nightly making
all the trouble possible, frightening
women who are at home alone and es-
pecially fitting themselves for reform
school or a term in the states prison.
Measures should be taken to suppress
this growing nuisance by our police de-
partment, even if a special of so men
have to be placed about our city occa-
sionally. A few arrests will have good
effect. Roller skating on our sidewalks
in the day time is all right, but at night
it is nuisance; large boys take special
pains to crowd women and children
from the walks and make themselves
obnoxious, generally. This amusement
should be regulated If the hoodlem
element cannot be brought under sub
lection by our present police force,
more men should be called into service.
