Old Mother Hubbard.
She went to the cupboard,
To get her folks some spuds.
But when she came there,
The cupboard was bare
Hubby put the spuds in The safe.
Kaiser Bill went up the hill
With 'steen thousand men;
Kaiser Bill came down the Hill
And never went anywhere again.

LAzAR GERsHoN COHEN.

With the death of Lazar Gershon Cohen
on Monday, at the age of seventy-seven,
a very interesting personality passed
away. He was one of Minneapolis pio-
neer settlers, having come here more
than fifty years ago. He had travelled in
almost all the states west of the Missis-
sippi and was a profound student. He
will be sorely missed by the host of
friends whom he used to delight with his
pleasant personality and his keen wit
and kind humor He is survived by
daughter, Sarah, and son Nathan, whose
whereabouts is not known. He is greatly
mourned by his nephews and nieces who
loved and reverenced him as a father.

WOODROW WILSON.

The city council last night, by an unanimous vote, increased the salary of the mayor of the city from $2,00O per annum to $3,0O0 per annum, the increase to become effective April 3, 1917, when the term of office Of the incoming mayor will begin.
 The ordinance provides that the in crease shall be made to the end that the mayor in the future may not pc required to have outside private busl- ness affairs, but may devote his entire time and attention to the duties Of his office as mayor.
 The ordinance calls attention to the fact that the salary of the mayor has remained at $2,0O0 per annum since 1906. although since that time the city has grown materially and the duties of the office have increased greatly.
 when the ordinance was read the second time, Alderman Frank Franey asked if it might not be advisable to make it more specific in the ordinance that the mayor shall not have outside nrivate business, but shall devote all his time and attention to the mayors office. The suggestion was endorsed hv Alderman McGibbony. City Attor- ney Wood informed the council that for some years past there has been state law requiring that a mayor Of municipality shall devote all his tune to his office, whereupon Alderman Rahlau stated that if such is the con dition it would be only superfluous to make such provision in the ordinance at hand, and that all that would be necessary would be enforcement ol | that law.
 The ordinance went through under suspension of the rules, being finally passed after it's third reading
