Wednesday afternoon took their first

Such a decision means the company
will refuse to abide by the boards rul-
ing. II being understood the company
has been advised that the commission
ers have no authority by law to
change the location of a right of way

way has been established.
In case the company is dilatory the
county commissioners will proceed by
their attorneys to -teste the boards

A Change Of Heart.
A year ago when the viewers found
the Improvement would be a public

company thought 1t would be best If
the company's line was outside of the
improvement proper. Less than six
weeks ago. and several weeks after
the company had been notified that it
would have to move its tracks to
about ten feet or more south of the
south curb in compliance with the spe-
cihcations for the improvement 1t ex-

asked that 1t be allowed to place its

south curb line of the improvement 1t
modified this reuest on Wednesday by
asking eight feet on the south side of
the road from the city limits to the
township boundary line. All 1t prom
ised to do was to tamp and ballast its
roadbed with stone purchased at the
townships expense. All it wanted to
pay was its pro rata of the improve

READY FOR A JOKE.
Tho Customs Official Had a Sense of
Humor Himself.

Hu"or himself
In the smoking room of the Hotel
des Hes Britanniques at the lovely re
sort of Mentone, on the French Hi
viera, some three years ago two Eng
lishmen met. After half an hours
conversation the Englishman from
Manchester said to his new acouaint-
ance from London:
81 say, old fellow, would you mind
taking a small parcel for me to Paris
and have it sent to this address there?
Pm leaving for Milan in the morning."
The Londoner willingly consented to
do this much for one of his country
men.
lawfully good Of you. I'll have the
boy take the parcel to your room in
the morning" acknowledged the Eng
lishman bound for Milan.
In the morning the package was left
at the others room
$50 that is what he calls a small
parcel" he exclaimed. "And what
might it contain? A package of such
size the custom officers would certain
ly want opened. What-cigarettes and
5000 of them! Is it possible that any
one could have the audacity to ask
such favor-to smuggle 5000 olga
rettes into France! That chap shall
pay for this, for / shall declare these
cigarettes and leave them to be called
for when the duty is paid"
The Londoner left Mentone that aft,
ernoon The following day he was in
Paris at the Care de FEST, his luggage
ready for examination.
Anything dutiable?" asked the Gus.
toms officer.
Nothing" replied the Englishman
Excepting in that parcel there"
"What does it contain?"
| "Three thousand cigarettes. said the
Londoner. with a smile upon his face
"a smile of embarrassment at having
such a parcel with him.
| The Frenchman raised his hands il
the air and laughed heartily. He, too
was as ready for a good joke rs any
one, and on each piece Of the English
mans luggage went his 0. X. cross.
Hardly realizing what had happened
the Londoner found himself riding il
taxicab along the streets of Paris
with the parcel Of 5000 cigarettes I'm
der his arm and nothing left TO do bu
to deliver it as he had been asked.

pedient at Monte Carlo.

pedient at Monte Carlo.
Those who have visited Monte Car
10 have heard of If not seen the pitiful
ruin of many an unfortunate person
who has lost his last franc in playing
at roulette in that palatial gambling
den. All are not so fortunate as to
have an armored cruiser at their dis
posal, as was the case with a French
naval officer some years ago. He had
gone ashore In the morning with
naught in his pockets but his own
earnings. By noon it was all gone.
If he but had another 500 francs he
was sure of winning. During those
morning hours of failure he had work
ed out system, and with just few
francs more success was certain. He
would use the ships money. Perhaps
it was not just the right thing to do
but in another two hours he would be
able to return it, would have recouped
his own loss and have won who knows
what fortune besides.
At sunset he returned to his ship a
ruined man. The system, like all sys-
TENS of the sort, had failed. What
was to be done? To return home
would mean a dishonorable discharge,
lifelong disgrace, if not even more Sc
we're punishment. Death seemed the
only alternative. But no; he would
make one final attempt to save him
self. He would force the authorities
Of Monte Carlo to return to him what
he had lost or he would blow up their
gambling palace!
AS soon as he was again on board
his order was: "Clear decks for action.
Raise the muzzle Of every gun and let
them point toward the heights of Mo
naco."
Whatever the sailors might think Of
such an order mattered little; obey
they must. With all haste messen-
ger was sent ashore with a note, and
the captain meanwhile paced the deck
In silence awaiting the reply-a reply
which meant life or death to him.
Finally the messenger returned car
rying bag of gold coins. That night
the French cruiser weighed anchor
and quietly steamed out into the Medi-
terranean. her captain happy that he
had Jared no worse and the authorities
of Monte Carlo only too glad to be rid
Of so dangerous a visitor.--W Washington
