About Men

When George j. Kirwan, the well
known vocalist and entertainer,
achieved a birthday recently, which he
had been %incautious enough to mention
in advance, a German band of his ae-
quaintance figured hat an excellent
opportunity to ~get back was afforded.
Mr.. Kirwan. in his capacity as amateur
musical critic, had more than once in
public passed on the bands output.
At about 1880 of the evening of the
birthday something broke in front of
the Kirwan home at lie Wyekliffe
street. Neighbours. preparatory to send
ing in a telephone hurry call for the
police, ran to front windows.
1t was the German .bandl
For twenty minutes the musicians
we will call them that informally in
this narrative = accomplished their
worst and there are over a hundred
witnesses in the vicinity ready to test.
tify it was very bad indeed, when the
door OF the Kirwan home orened and
a member of the Kirwan household
wanted to know what It was all about.
"celebratin' Chorge's birthday vol
unteered one.
He'll he sorry he missed you" was
the reply, he's in New York and won't
be home for an hour yet"
Kirwan met the band on his way
home at a certain place but nothing
was said about the %serenade.
When Daniel A. Dugan took his seat
as Judge of the Orange District Cour
today many newspaper men took occa-
sion to send him congratulations.
While some of the older men remember
him as Danny" who ono Travelled
about this town as a reporter, he will
now be known as judge. 1t is the re-
suit of hard work on the part of Judge
| Dusan that he has finally landed the
berth he has just received, and III
which he succeeds such an amiable
man as Judge Benjamin F. Jones. Like
many other newspaper man, Judge
Dugan forsook the game" to study
law. May his career on the bench be
as successful as in. other lines he has
followed.
Nobody can reproach DR.. H. c. H.
Herold, president of the Board of
Health, with not being a loyal fan. He
attends every game he possibly can.

with his roofing.
Circumstance over which he had no
control, namely, professional calls, kept
him busy until after 5 O'Clock. When
he was free the doctor sped down TO
Wiedenmayer's Park in his autorno-
bile and ran up the incline leading to
the bleaehers just in time to see the
local players chances queshed in a
double play by the Rochester boys.
Immediately the crowd made for the
exits, ana caught DR.. Herold at the
ton of he incline and carried him to
the street he had left but a minute
before.

well satisfied.

Ii. TIPS ON MERCURY.

BY tips, finger tips are meant. And
as you are familiar with the sigaifi-
| canoe Of the various kinds OF tips, It
will interest o to apply this knowl-
edge to the different kinds OF Mercu-
rians whom you are able to distinguish
by their ~phalanges.
BY carefully noting the procedure I'm
this section you will have no difficulty
! to pursue a similar course In reagrd
to all other mount types. and will thus
have made a great stride in pour skill
In reading hands.
Assuming that the Mercurian's first
phalanx is longest, showing his power
of expression to be his most pronounced
feature, you will read him az fol-
| lows:
If he have square tips he Is a prac-
Logic will be his forte, and he will be
clear and orderly in the exposition OF
his themes.
II he have a comic tip, he will inter-
lard his speech or writings with a
great wealth OF imagery and viii be
artistic.
II the tip is pointed. the idealism OF
his flights Of fancy will carry the hear
ers beyond the realms of reality and
will charm with It's ethereal, fascinat~
Ing refinement.
II the tip be spatulate the originality
OF thought and fiery. i~npetuous elo-
quence will carry the hearers of their
feet and persuade them into whatso-
ever course the Mercurian rator or
writer may be advocating.
Next we viii ssum that the Mercu-
rams second phalanx is longest, which
will, of course, stamp him as a scien-
fist or professional man Tor woman, as
the case may be).
Comic tipped. you may be sure his
scientific researches or his work az a
lawyer, doctor. actor OF along other
professional lines will be artistic, moth
Ing being done that has not some ref
erence to the beautiful and aesthetic.
Pointed tips will make the Mercurian
scientist or professional a dreamer,
altogether too impractical 10 be useful
except In SO far az he may bring the
soothing balm of idealism to those toe
greatly burdened by the materialistic
cares of our altogether too prosaic
lives.
Spatuiate tips will make him a tire
lessly active worker in his chosen line
and will show that he Is original and
inventive and extremely progressive.
Should the third phalanx be the
longest your Mercurian will, of course
be a business man, and then the comic
tip will show that he prefers some
branch Of trade which will allow him
to indulge his fondness for whatever
Is artistic and beautiful.
If there is a pointed tip the man is
entirely out Of place in any business
which requires practical common
sense; and II is almost certain that he
chafes at the necessity which chains
him, galley-slave like, to a calling
which is SO ~antagonistic to his tastes,
for prosaic business and idealism have
as little in common as water and FIRE.
Square-tipped M~ercurian business
men are typical. They are ito the
manner born" They make every penny
count and will tolerate no foolishness
In connection with business.
Spatulate tipped, the business Mer-
curian will push his activities into new
fields of venture and will strive after
novel methods OF production and dis
tribution of his wares,

people of this city. We're united in
marriage at the home of the brides
aunt. Mrs. w. E. Hutchins, in Kan
sas City, Missouri.
The foregoing details are about
ali that could be gained at the
present time, owing to the fact
that Leslie, who is captain of the
local military company and also well
acquainted with the members of a
company in Kansas City, became
cognizant that there was some sec
ret planning for reception for
him between the two companies
which he did not care to receive
and he has simply made a sneak"
on his friends and will come home
with his bride in very few days
him to do so. He knows some
thing of military receptions and
to dodge was his chief hope.
Leslie and his bride were school
mates in Delta when both were
children and 1t was then that the
friendship came about which event
uaIly ripened into love and has
terminated into a happy union for
life. Both bride and groom are well
qualifiedd for the struggle of life,
she being a graduate of one of the
big universities of Missouri and
Leslie having gone through Culver
Military academy, one of the best
in the world.
Leslie is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.

Typhoid Not in the Ice.

Some unknown party is authority
for the rumor that much of the ty-
phoid about the city of Delta the
past summer was caused by the ty-
phoid germs in the ice made and
sold by the Delta Ice e Mercan-
tile company.
The health officer, DR.. L. A.
Hick. sent a sample of the ice water
from the above named company, to
Denver where it was analysed by a
state chemist. This is the reply:
DR.. L. A. Hick,
Health Officer, Delta, Colo,
Dear Doctor:
The ice water from the Delta
Ice & Mercantile company is re-
ported by our chemist to be free
from colon bacille.
(Signed) Yours truly,
GEO. T. BRADLEY,
Commissioner.
Just why this rumor was started
We are unable to understand. Our
ice is made from steam, condensed
reboiled and filtered before it fin
ally goes into the ice cans to
be frozen.
In the past we have always been
open for inspection at all times,
and next spring when the plant is
put in operation, We make stand
ing invitation to everyone to come
and see how we make ice.
Our ice is made from city water
only.
Better ice cannot be made and
we back the statement with the
goods.
