He'd Die in MOman's Stead.
Los Angeles Gal. J Dispatch. ]

DR.. H. S. Tanner, of this city, 81
years old, the original ''forty-day
faster" has offered himself as a sub
stitute for Mrs. Angelina NapoIiano.
who is under sentence of death at
Sault Ste. Marie. His offer follows:
To the Hon. Earl Grey. Governor
General of Canada, Ottawa, Canada
Dear Sir-On August 8 of this
year there is scheduled to be hanged
in Sault Ste. Marie prison one Mrs.
Angelina Napolitano, sentenced to
die because she killed her husband to
protect her honor.
''Her death will leave four children
now living motherless. 1t will also
orphan a month-old babe, yet to be
born.
Her execution will be nothing
short of murder-the foulest blot on
the criminal annals of yours or any
other country.
Permit me to offer myself as a
substitute for Mrs. Napolitano. May
my life be taken that the law may be
appeased without robbing five young
children, one month-old babe, of a
mother.
"Aweiting instructions from your
Honor, l remain, yours very truly,
III. S. TANNER, NJ. D."

A Real Surprise Party.
From Lippincott's Magazine. ]

"We have the surprise beautifully
planned, said young Mrs. Wester-
leigh to the guests, land Frank
doesn't suspect thing. I think he
has even forgotten that today's his
birthday, He will get hcme from the
office at about O'Clock. Then he al
ways goes upstairs to take off his coat
and put on his smoking jacket for the
evening. When he is upstairs l will
call out suddenly, oh, Frank, come
down quick. The gas is escaping. ;
Then he will rush down here, I'M
suspecting, to find the crowd of friends
waiting for him."
1t went off exactly as planned.
Westerleigh came home at the regular
hour and went directly upstairs. The
guests held their breath while Mrs.
Westerleigh called out excitedly,
"Oh, Frank, come down quick, The
gas is escaping in the parlor."
Every light had been turned out.
and the parlor was in perfect dark
ness. There was rapid rush of feet
down the stairway, then a voice said.
II don't smell any gass."
"Better light the jet. " Mrs. Wester-
leigh suggested TREMENDOUSLY.
There was a splutter, and suddenly
the room was flooded with light.
Everybody screamed. The hostess
tainted.
For there in the centre of the room
stood Westerleigh, attired only in
natty union suit, with fresh pair of
trousers over his arm.
Birthday parties still form a for
hidden subject of conversation at the
Westerleighs.

OUR WATER SUPPLY.

II was said by one of our county
papers few years ago that the town
authorities of one of our neighboring
towns would set day and call on ali
the able bodied men and boys, to take
their buckets and fill their newly con
structed reservoir with water. To
most of the Woodstock people, it
seems that we have reached the same
point.
We have one good reservoir with a
water supply that covers nearly one
half Of the bottom and our town coun-
Gil is sbuildng another SO We don't
lack reservoir. To most people il
would seem that good and adequate
supply of water is more important
that SO much empty reservoir space.
But it seems the town council don
think that way. Why not turn spring
No. one, the strongest stream we have
back into the reservoir. This stream
itself flows more water, yes more than
the other springs. This spring was
run into the reservoir when the reser-
voir was built, but was tempered with
by parties who are ignorant of Hyd-
raulic Engineering and now it runs
into the river. Put this spring back
and there will be plenty water to use
and to spare. Our water system was
a success until it fell into the hands O.
men who are incompetent to handle it.
Hundreds of dollars have been thrown
away in digging big holes around our
source of water supply ADD the more
they dig and the more they spend, the
less water we have
Why will the citizens of Woodstock
intrust their valuable water sy stem to
men who know nothing about geolog,
or hydraulic engineering? You would
not employ lawyer to build barn
nor a carpenter to shoe horse, but
this is about the policy adopted by
our town council and unless our water
works is handled with more intelligence
in the future than it has been In the
past, we will soon have no water sup
ply.

Disastrous Effect Of Higher
Education On The Negro.

In removing the debris from the
cellar of the old Riggs House, which
has been torn down, a number of
Washington negro workmen the other
day discovered a big possum which
they mistook for an enoromus rat,
and fed precipately. The effects
upon the negro of the refinements OF
higher education and the white mans
civilization may we'll be challenged
when it destroys the nature of the race
to the extent that its members fail
to recognize fine fat possum when
they see it. About one more genera
ton of progress along the same line,
and we will see the colored man and
brother shying at the watermelon and
running from the yellow-legged pullet

THE WATER QUESTION.

To obtain a sufficient supply
of water for the use of the town
has interested our Town Council
for some days. AT a meeting
held last Monday, they passed a
resolution that the water of the
system should be used throughout
the day, for domestic purposes
and drinking exclusively, until
further order of the council.
The council pledges itself to dc
all that is possible to relieve the
situation and asks the co-opera-
ton of the citizens,
Amid the many rumors which
have been circulated. it is very
difficult to understand the true
condition. The flow of water
into the reservoir is much less
than it was at first. An ad.
ditional spring has been put in,
but the flow is still smaller
than it was. This decrease has
probably been caused by the
disturbance of the intakes
some years ago. 1t may
be that there is a leakage in the
pipes. They have been care.
fully examined, but there may
possibly be a filling up of the
pipes by rootlets and an escape Of
water which does not appear
upon the surface.
The council has gone to con
siderable expence, in building
another reservoir into which viii
flow one or two small streams
This new reservoir will also re-
ceive the overflow from the ole
reservoir and will store up suf'
ficient water for the use of the
town for domestic purposes.
The water is of excellent quail
ity and is great blessing to the
town, but as the streams are now
flowing, we will not have the
abundance which we should
have.
1t is, however, evident that in
a short time there will not be d
sufficient supply, for domestic
and manufacturing purposes. A
few thousand dollars more when
t he system was installed would
have given us an abundance, but
at that time the council was
very conservative and was afraid
to borrow the money required.
We have learned by experience,
but it has been, as is always the
case, a costly experience.

The Right and the Wrong

way to sit while using sewing machine IS
shown in the two photographs, top and bottom
of this advertisement
These photographs are taken from actual life
and show at the top woman sitting The Right
Way at Standard Central Needle Machine,
new type of family sewing machine intelli-
gently designed to enable woman to sit in a
correct position while operating the machine,
without injury to her health.
In this machine the needle is central with the
worker, directly over the center of the treadie.
To use IT calls for no undue strain on any part
of the body, permitting the operator to work
all day long without fatigue or running the risk
of permanent injury.
The photograph at the bottom of the advertise
ment shows woman sitting the way you sit at an
ordinary family sewing machine. This is the
Wrong Way but the only way you can sit.
The reason for this is the family sewing ma.
chine as ordinarily constructed is altogether
wrong. You cannot sit straight in your chair
while operating your machine. Try II, sit
straight, and square as you should and see Il
you can sew on your machine. You can't
The needle is 4 inches from the centre where
1t ought to be. To follow your work you have
to twist your body to the left This twist
calls for a wrench and strain which means
fatigue and if continued, results disastrously in

the resolutions relating to the initia-
tive, the referendum and the recall at
