Mr. w. II. buftlS, VICE pfeSlttent
and general manager of the Inter
state Power and Electric Light
Co., and Mr.. j. W. Welsh, an
electrician, arrived from DEBORAH,
Ia, last week and we're met here
by Supt. Cameron, of Wagner.
The visit was in response to GER
tain complaints that had been
made of the service by the citizens
committee. The committee pre-
seuted the wishes of the city to
Mr.. Burtis, and informed him that
nothing short of a twenty four hour
service, with proper equipment to
furnish it would be satisfactory.
He vas not prepared to make
any definite reply, but promised TO
spend the week Investigating the
line OF plants owned by the COM
pany, and meet the committee
again Saturday. Accordingly he
again appeared Saturday, and in
formed the committee that after a
thorough investigation he had
concluded that the demands of the
( city were not unreasonable. He
promised to INSET the stockholders
and financial hackers of the COM
pany in Chicago on Tuesday Of
this week and would recommend
that Scotland be given a continuous
service with power sufficient to
provide for all demands for power
and light purposes. Whether
this would be done by establishing
a central power plant, and connect
ing all of their plants in this vicin.
lty with it, or whether a duplicate
set of machinery would be pro-
vided for this plant. he could not
at that time say. He assured US
that we would h@enceforth have all
night service the year around, and
seemed quite confident that the
company would grant the other
demands. In consideration Of
this extended service the COMPANY
would want an extended contract
with the city. hut the proyiaions Of
the contract as he expressed them
were not unreasonable and doubt.
less would be granted. We shall
doubtless be informed Of the de-
cision Of the company by the last
Of The week.

who purposed training Rosabelle into
a maid of all work. This they sue
ceeded in doing. and SO many admira-
BILE traits of character were devel-
oped in Rosabelle that they became
much attached to the girl, and her af-
lection for them was pronounced. One
day when she was nearly thirty years
old she came to Mrs. Deene to ask a
"favah" Of somewhat startling char
acter.

it-only common sense.
Coffee is a destroyer-Postum is a

An Expensive Dish.

Caruso, the great Italian singer,
dined at a private house in London,
and he was so pleased with dish of
macaroni that the cook had sent up
to the table that he insisted on going
down to the kitchen to offer his
thanks in person. Not only did he
thank the lady but he offered her the
choice of a ticket to hear him sing at
Covent Garden or song on the spot.
The cook, not trusting very much
to the remembering capacity OF IA
nous tenors, said she would have the
song on the spot. So Caruso, leaning
against the kitchen dresser, imme-
diately favored her with La Donna
9 Mobile in his most brilliant man
ner.
AS somebody pointed out afterward:
"Caruso expects at least $4,000 for
private concert, which makes the
cooks macaroni the most expensive
dish ever eaten."-Dramatic Memor.

worth while to recall the recent state
ment that the city of Buenos Aires

delphia, which stands next to Chi
cago in the United States, has now
been passed by the South American

multiplied its population by ten since
its first census was taken As years
ago. It is also to be noted that that
city stands next to New York in he
