teachers, who said telephone and gas
bills were due before that date, and all
other bills were due on the LIST OF the
month. Policemen and f1remen, II was

month, and the teachers desired no dis
elimination. II was further pointed
out that other cities paid teachers on
the LIST of the month.

BAD MANNERS, BUT THEN

The following is told with ref
erence to an eccentric character
in Lincoln, Neb., known to his
fellow townsmen as Bill Morton.
Bill once saved the lives of
about hundred excursionists on
a train coming into Lincoln. He
discovered a washout, resulting
in the spreading of the rails and
tagged the train in time to pre-
vent disaster.
Some time thereafter a COM
mittee Of prominent citizens
called upon him for the purpose
of presenting to him, as testi-
monial of esteem, a gold watch

the good people of Lincoln that
in recognition of your va1or and
merit you shall be presented with
this watch, which, they trust, will

Bill evinced,not the least emo
