HUMOROUS QUIPS.
An 0verWorked Person.

Being the only small child in a family
hotel.l
The married ladies grab him
For just quick caress;
The transient" persons nab him
And hold him in duress
The spinster ladies seize him
At play upon the floor;
The maidens young displease him
By kissing him some more.
They smooth his hair and ruffies.
They wipe his mouth and eyes
With practiced hand that muffies
His fierce, indignant cries,
And when they cease to busy
Themselves with such as this
In awful sequence dizzy
They kiss and kiss and kiss!
And thus his day is ended,
And thus his days begun.
All vote him fairly splendid
And quite the best of fun.
But underneath the lightness
One glimpses sudden CLEANS,
In eyes long past their brightness,
OF unforgotten dreams!

The games Munich was scheduled to
play here yesterday with Langdon had
to be called off owing to unfavorable
weather conditions and wet grounds, but
will be played this forenoon, this part of
of the day being chosen so as not to in

merely one of the sad reverses q team
has occasionally to bump up against.
Last Friday when Park River played in
Langdon our people certainly got their
moneys worth and at the same time had
the satisfaction of seeing Langdon win
both. Albert Drury was on the mound
for the locals in the afternoon and he
struck out seventeen of the twenty
seven men up to bat. The game won by
a score of 5 to 3 would have been a shut
if the field had given Drury proper sup.
port. The seven innings played in the
evening was loosely played. it being
evident that the River boys had shot ur
their display of fireworks in the effort
to win the afternoon game. The box
score shows how Langdon won this
game by a score of 10 to 2.

Washington, Nov. 1S. Having ac-
copied the merit system with regard to
appointment and promotions i'll the
consular service. the Wilson admins
tration is determined to make the rule
work both ways and eliminate the In
efficient from the service.
To make the wedding out process
more thorough and to determine the
actual efficiency of the men now hold
ing consular positions it is probable
that every officer will be required to
take an examination to demonstrate
his qualifications for his post.
Efforts were made in the last adj
ministration to weed out Of the con-
sular service the men that were mark
eddy inefficient and unfit. This step
was urged as a proper accompaniment
of the rapid progress made since .
in putting admissions and promotions
in the service Oh the basis OF merit
and efficiency.
There have been great changes IN
the consular service since the basis OF
its reorganization was put through ny

SHORTAGE Of Meat,

Pickens, an expert in the bureau OF

meat in the United States. which is
estimated to have fallen off ten pounds
in four years, or from 1872 pounds IN
1909 to 1872 pounds in the fiscal year

1T is evident that the country is
facing an area Of short production OF

means must be adopted if the Ameri-

supplied.
The decline in beef production is
shown in three different ways-by the
number Of cattle on hand, the number
received at market centers and the
number slaughtered. We are depicting
our stock Of cattle, and there can be
no doubt of the gravity Of the situa
