benefit the Illinois people.
That the agreement is a judicious
one is indicated by the statement of
one of the local bankers, who after
a study of the situation declared that
the proposition made by the Musca-
tine Bridge company was like swap
ping dollars. and receiving a guaran-
tee that the priAcipal will be paid
back in 20 years which is just
twice as satisfactory as the old plan.
COMPANY STATEMENT.
With reference to the change the
company submitted the following
statement for publication:

company has taken over the Toll
Road and has for the time being quit

Four Great Sauces.

A Frenchman has declared that
man has created the culinary art.
He does not eat like an animai-he

The French are particularly eloquent
on the . subject Of sauces. Among
their famous chefs are recognized
four great sauces-Spanish, Veloute.
Bechamel and German. The Spanish
and Veloute were known as far back
as the seventeenth century. In the
eighteenth they were modified by the
masters of cookery. particularly by
Careme. who was called the Raphael
Of the kitchen"
The Spanish sauce is composed OF
juices extracted from a mixture OF

every Civil war veteran who comes
to Gettysburg for the celebration of
the semi-centennial of the battle will

of the town, who has opened a sort
of an impromptu matrimonial bureau,
which he hopes will benefit both visit

brides.
Mayor Holtzworth's idea was in
spired by the following communica-
ton from civil war veteran in ST.
James. Mo-. There are four or five
of us old veterans of the battle of
Gettysburg who will be in your city
at the celebration, and If you have

Campaign OPENS AND
WTTPENN DODGES

JERSEY CITY. N j., June A.
with both sets of candidates on the
stump the commission campaign is
on in earnest and from now until the
polls close Jersey City will experience
one of the most interesting contests
in its history. Mayor Wittpenn haa
decided not to openly advocate the
five men he had picked out for can
didates. but the attack made upon
his administration has forced MIN
out in the open. It is a life and
death struggle for the Mayor and
he is making most pathetic Appeals
for support. Practically all of the
"old gang" as he termed the OLD
Democratic machine, are with him.
some of these having obtained ap-
pointments and the others having re-
ceived promises.
Mayor Wittpenn is having the time OF
his life trying to explain how, during
his Ave years in office, the tax rate
has Jumped from SIG to S22 without
anything to show for the increase.
The Mayor is lodging the issues ana
is trying to make the public believe
that he is the simon pure progress
sive and that without his support
Woodrow Wilson would not have
been President. He fails to explain
how he came to pick up for his can
didates two men who were active IN
their opposition to President Wilson S
candidacy Nor does he tell the
voters that his present secretary was
against President Wilson's non1ina-
ton and had publicly criticised Mayor
wittpenn two days before the latter
made him secretary.
