Had Plan Of Their Own.

One day soon after Pope's defeat at
the second Bull Run and Chantilly q
private soldier belonging to an Ohio
regiment sought an interview with his
captain, and announced that he had a
plan for a military campaign which
must certainly result In crushing out
the Secession. The officer very natural
ly inquired for particulars, but the
soldier refused to reveal them, and
asked for chance to lay his plans be-
fore Pope himself. After some delay
he was given pass to headquarters.
He did not get to see Pope, but after
the chief of staff had coaxed and PROM

REAsoNER TO SCOTT CITY

F. K Reasoner, who a short time
ago disposed of his cigar factory here
and who has had charge of the Lib
eral Bands, has accepted position as
band instructor and secretary of the
Commercial Club at Scott City, and
will enter upon his duties there as
soon as his contract here is fulfilled,
some time after July 10th.
Mr.. Reasoner has good position,
at a good salary, and we hope he
finds life there congenial. We re-
greet that he cannot remain with US,
as we have found him to be a mighty
good citizen. The bushes men of
Scott City will find him competent
and willing, and they are to be con-
graduated on securing his services.
And, if in the future should he find
it desirable to drift back this way he
will find lot of friends who will
welcome him gladly.

Tho Ministry Of Newspapers.

1t is by the ministry of the news
papers that the nation is united, in
formed, summoned, and led.
So many people take the newspaper
for granted, they never think what the
sheet Is doing for them, or for the
land we love. The universally of the
newspaper is the sign Of its vast util-
ity. The development does not rest
merely on craving for the distrac-
ton of news; 1t Is less so now than
ever, though the news today is beyond
anything in the history of the world.
At the bottom, the craving is the
will to live In realities. That is why
newspapers should be clean, never
playing mere game. If we do not live
now in the realities, we may never re-
cover our hold of them. No matter
what bread costs, we must know lit
tie Of where the world ls.-Methodlst

cod-skin for Book Covers.

According to the Weser Zeitung
(Bremen), a Berlin bookbinder has
discovered a new material for book
blnding-codfsh skin-a doubly-wel-
come discovery In these days of leath-
er shortage. In itself the use of fish
skin for book-bindlng Is no novelty |;
among others, shark leather had pre-
viously been used for binding de luxe
for the sake of Its durability and beau
tiful markings.
Cod-skin has several advantages
over shark-skin; 1t Is more abundant,
more easily procurable, and, therefore,
cheaper. The appearance Of the skin,
uDscaled and properly prepared. re-
sembles snakes skin. Its strength
and durability have been tested and
found equal to parchment by the royal
material-testing Office In Berlin. 1t Is
easy to work and literally untearable,
and should therefore prove very
valuable substitute for leather, not only
for bookbindery, but for the manufac-
ture of leather goods.

Gold Leaf.

There appears to be some mystery
about the origin Of gold leaf. 1t is
found, for example, in connection
with the most ancient known num-
mics, having been used for covering
teeth, tongue, skin, etc. Sometimes 1t
is also found on the coffinsl Gold leaf
was also used on the tombs and monu-
ments of ancient Egypt. The process
of making gold leaf has thus been
known since the eighth century, B. G.
In the eleventh century 1t seems to
have attained as high degree Of per-
lection as today. The gold leaf on
some ancient Grecian pottery, indeed,
Is as thin as that now used.

A FELONY TO DRIVE
ACROSS FIRE HOSE

Last Sunday some uniformed or
careless persons ran over the fire
hose, running a 50-foot section,
which cost the city $1.10 foot or
$55. In addition it rendered
that hose useless for the time be-
ing.
In this state it is a felony for
anybody to run over a fire hose,
and hereafter the individual that
INDUCES in such practice will suf-
fer. There hasn't been fire of
any consequence in the city but
what half dozen or more careless
individuals ran over the hose. We
would have fireman guard the
hose, but we need them to help
fight the fire.

enforced. This is a warning.

A COUNT.

A Count" according to the habits
of the Camp Fire Girls, seems to be
the tale of some adventure, and 1t is
their custom to pJrpare and read
these counts at their meetings. AT
the recent session Miss Mary Cox
produced and read the following
Once four maidens went walking
On a sunny winter day
Paviotsoe Campfire maidens,
Maids who sank along the way.
AS they neared the Walker river
There some willows they did spy
And they thot what lovely willows,
And they echoed forth cry,
ooh. what coy little wigwams
Will those willows for us make!
So they gathered up bundle
On their journey home to take.
When they reached the noble river
These four maidens, bright and
fair,
They stood gazing on the water,
Saw Mount Grant reflected there
Then they turned to see more clearly
That majectic peak of snow,
With its crystals sparkling clearly
lust like diamonds in the snow.
LET us make little fire.
These four maidens, they did say
Kindle here a sparkling fire;
For our supper let us stay"
So they quickly gathered branches,
Heaped them piled them, high and
higher;
And kiloqua struck the matches
Kindling thus the magic fire.
Then they watched the chocolate pot
AS it swung above the fame,
Sizzling, bubbling, growing hot,
In the rudy, glowing fame.
And one maiden toasted crackers,
Very brown and very hot,
Which the others ate, all gleeful,
With the cocoa from the pot.
When the sun was sinking westward
Homeward did their thoughts re
turn;
So they rose and bent their footsteps
Where the hearth fires ever burn
Now they watched the clouds ahre
Turning pink and softest blue
: Drifting in the sky still higher,
Until wrapped in twilight hue.
Softly then they sang in parting,
Good night song they loved the
best;
And thru shadows then departing,
Sought their homes to sleep and
rest.
