lie was a sorroWful specimen as he
sat before Police Judge Miller shortly
after the clock had struck 8 a. IN.
He had been out the night before,
but explained to his honor that this
was the first time" and it would be
the last.
He said his name was Ole SVEN
mtngson, and he admitted hat he was
one of the younger generation who had
come from over the seas.
On this account the court felt in
clined to deal mercifully with him, in
view of the fact that he had no
money.

remarked his honor. but | want to
warn you against the evils of intem-
perance. Whenever you feel inclined

and get an apple and eat it and it will
kill that gnaWing in your inwaTds, and
to assist you l will present you with
the first apple since your good resolu-
TONS"
Aye tank you bane fine ~feller," re-
marked Ole with a smile that covered
his face. Aye tank / vote for you the
first time you come up"
Here the judge explained to Ole that
he might have an opportunity the next
election as he was a candidate for JUS
tice of the peace.
The ScandinaVian's eyes lighted up
as he exclaimed:
"Ayell do it, judge. How much you'll
gimme?"
His honor has lost faith in human
nature.
E. NJ. Chandler, who buys potatoes
for a Minneapolis house, was a guest
at the Waldorf yesterday, after being
in this section for several days. Yes,
we are getting many potatoes" said he,
"and are paying a good price for them,
although we find that the tubers are
plentiful, in fact much better than
we were led to expect from the &C
counts we had seen in some of the city
papers, which claimed that the potato
crop had been drowned out up in this
section of the country. We find that
the crop is fairly good and that there
is a fairly good demand for the prod
uct."

amount offered and tine odds announced
make such tempting bait for those
speculatively inclined that no doubt il
