WALT MASON
The Poet Philosopher.
THE VILLAGE SPORT.

His clothes are loud, his necktle
rcd, his hat far back upon his head
his hair Rrofusely banked; and rather
than get down to tacks and work with
men who strain their. backs he. says
he will be hanged. Brass jewelry his
bosom frets; he smokes the cheaper
cigarettes, and plays hand at pool;
the latest ragtime song he sings, and
knows, a raft of useless things he ney;
err learned In school. He knows. how
many rounds It took the great John
Sullivan to cook Tug Wilson, years
ago; and he can tell you, by the
watch. how long 1t took the farmer
Gotclf TO lay the Frenchman low. He
knows the story Of the steed which
broke all records by its speed way
back before the wars; and he has
soaked his scrambled brains with
facts concerning aeronlanes and
yachts and m0tor.cars. Alas, his ig.
norance is dense, when asked the way
10 build fence or work Il patent
churn; he never planted peas or trees
such useless, trlfling things as
these he never tried to learn. The
things to which he'd turn his hand
are things for which there's no de.
mand-his knowledge has no. sale;
and so he makes his penny bets and
smokes his spinach cigarettes before
the village jail. Some foolish damscI
ni his side one day goes forth to be
his bride, and, having made the splice
she buckles down with smop :spd tub

Of the house public lands committee, and
in the absence OF Chairman Robinson
was entitled to recognition on this com

Those who are opposed to the Borah

that the Illinois member would be named

show of opposition when the bill was

saying that unless the bill as amended

Among those who know the true state
Of affairs in the democratic camp. City
Treasurer John Gillins repeated pro-
tests OF his own official immaeulateness
|, In the face of the fight that is being
made upon him by his own party has
created amusement. Through the columns
OF the World-Herald Gillin is accused Of
placing himself on a pedestal above his
running mates at whom he shouts his old
'holier than thou platform"
In his own personal and official organ
Gillin brazenly denies that he has won
the antagonism Of many members OF the
Ancient order of Hibernians. President
J. j. oDonnell is now alleged to have said
that he had nothing to do with the OPP
position to Treasurer John Gillin. Presi-
dent o'Donnell was never mentioned in
connection with the reported fight and
his protests In favor of the suage treas
urer has not stamped out the dissatis.
faction among many members of the
Hibernlan order.

leading members openly stated that Gil

with any other department of the city.
He has laid claim to virtue of having
paid a deputy county treasurer 500 out
Of his own pocket. AS a matter of fact
the republicans have shown that the sum
in question is paid by the county and
not by Treasurer Gillin. City Treasurer
