Alfred Lyons was a very ordinary
young man. He frankly admitted
this to his sweetheart, Lily. when
expressing wonder that she should
ever have agreed to marry him.
You are wonderful" answered
Lily, "and I know you are going to
become a successful man."
You're right there answered Al

Because you have perseverance"
answered Lily, receiving the kiss that
lowered upon his lips.
Alfred was amazed at her perspi-

was as adhesive as a bulldog smoth-

WANTED TO Get EVEN
An Old Man Turns Up a Nei2hbor to
the Police.

Neighborhood feeling was RESPONSE
BILE for a police raid Sunday on the
residence of respectable family in a
respectable neighborhood. Because
of the circumstances, Harvey Parsons,
chief of police, has declined to make
the names public.
An elderly man, known by the de-
partment. complained to the police
that a family in his locality was SELL
ing beer.
They are running a joint and SELL
ing right along he is reported as
saying
The officers swooped down upon
the address given and found a barrel
of beer. all right. They also learned
some other facts. They found that
the barrel of beer had been received
early Saturday, that only two bottles
of it were missing and that a third
bottle was cooling in a bucket of
water. They also found that it was
the first bar. Of beer the family had
had since last June.
After learning these facts the po-
lice apologiZed and went out back
ward with their hats in their hands
This morning Chief Parsons called
the informant to the police station
and the. Two went round and round.
According to the chief, the informant
finally admitted that he had been sore
at the family for three months and
wanted to get even.

FARRELLY GETS IN
Files Interesting Petition in X.
& l.. of s. Case.
New Complications Added to
Orders Troubles.

New complications were added to
the Knights and Ladies of Security
troubles TODAY when Hugh p. Farrelly
of Chanutc filed an intervening petit
ton in the mandamus suit and quo
warranto proceedings were filed in
the supreme court to GUST Farrelly
from his job. Both petitions were
filed today in the supreme court and
will be heard June 5.
In his intervening petition today
Farrelly asks the court to dismiss the
original petition by w. 3. kirkpatrick.
president, in which he seeks a writ of
mandamus against the siEsurgent" Of
ficers in an effort to compel accept
ance of his committee appointments.
The court consented to the Farrelly
intervention with privilege of future
objections by opposing counsel.
The Farrelly petition would stop
further litigation concerning the man
damus writ. On the other hand, it
would give judicial recognition of the
appointments by the president of the
lodge and would accomplish all that
the original petition seeks. In view
of this move it is probable that the
plaintiff viii. have as much trouble in
withdrawing the suit IS in pleading
for a writ. Farrelly's intervention
was in his capacity as a member of the
law committee of the lodge.
Almost Immediately following the
intervening petition, quo warranto
proceedings were filed on behalf OF
the national council in an effort to
GUST Farrelly from his office as a
member of the law committee. Both
petitions will be heard June 5.

mated night flights, daylight fireworks
exhibits, looping the loop and passen-
ger carrying. The aeroplane body

WILL 0. K. ARMY BILL
President Will Attach Signature in
Few Days-Appropriation Bill Next

Washington, May 22.-President
Wilson today began consideration of
the army reorganization bill passed by
congress last week. He expects to
sign it within a few days. He dis
cussed features of it today with Chair
men Hay and Chamberlain of the
house and senate military committees.
Representative Hay told the presi-
dent the army appropriation bill will be
ready for the house later this week.
1t will carry approximately $3.50, OO0.-
600, an increase of $50,090,000 over
last years bill.
The president told Senator Cham
berlain today that generally he
thought the army reorganization bill
was satisfactory.
Senator Chamberlain said that ap-
parently the national guard called into
service along the Mexican border was
not meeting expectations and 1t was
possible that congress would still find
it advisable to enact a federal volun-
teer bill
