"Can't make up his mind to face the
music, ehf"
q" have an idea that he is waiting
for political reasons"
"Whatl Why, what has a young
man of twenty-five got to do with pol
itics?"
II don't know"
"What ward does he live in?"
"In this, where you are alderman"
"Um! UNI / lever heard Of him
In politics. Maybe he has got a friend
who wants to be elected Constable"
A week later as Mr.. Garnett and
Miss Nellie sat In the parlor the alder
man entered and said to the young
man:
81 presume you r Mr.. GarnettT
"Yes, sir"
"Did you want to see me on bust
ness?"
weller, yes. It's about politics.
I want to ask your advice. The case
is this" began Mr.. Garrett. Its only
a month to our city election and the
people are beginning to talk of the fit
ness of this or that man for Office"
"It is always so, and the people are
seldom mistaken"
ITO my amazement they r asking
me to run for Office"
But you are young, sir-very
young"
That's what I tell them, but they
will have it that a man hasn't got to
be ~middle-aged to be honest"
"But is there any talk of dishonesty
among the Office holdersT" asked the
alderman with a Jingle of anxiety in
his tone.
"Yes, a bit. There was a mile Of paw
ing done last year, you know, and it Is
whispered that there was a divvy In
it. And they say there was another
divvy In supplies bought for the fire
department. Mr.. Andrews, they will
have it that l ought to take an alder
manic nomination"
TOO young, sir-too young, as I
said"
"The alderman from one of u
wards was elected by only forty ma
jOrity. 1 can get a majority of 124 in
that ward"
"But you must have the nomination
first" was the sulky reply.
s"Oh, the Daily Times will help me
to that for what 1 can dig out of the
cement bridge divvy two years ago.
Is your advice to me, Mr.. Andrews, to
go into politicsf"
81 don't say yes, and 1 don't say
no."
Then Miss Nellie spoke for the first
time:
81 have also a question to ask you,
father. Are you willing that I should
fall in love with a young Politician"
IF he is in politics to get the office
of city clerk, yes. II he's after my
aldermanship scalp as well as my
daughter, no., by thunder"
Father, isn't it a better thing for a
young man to be the sOn-in-law of a
politician than to be a politician him
self"
"It strikes me that way" was the
thoughtful reply.
"And it strikes me that way, too"
added Mr.. Garnet.
"And as the three of us are struck
alike"
And then and there two Of the three
went out of politics, and the third one
said he would have the check ready
at tha wedding breakfast.

w. -, Milwaukee,, Wis.-Opera-
lions of the Nevada Cooperative
Mines company, in the Gold Noun
tain district, have been successful
in placing In sight a large tonnage
of good milling ore and mining
men generally regard the property
as being in condition to intall a re-
duction plant and to proceed with
the treatment of the ore. 1t Is
recognized, however, that there are
great difficulties in the way of car
rying out this plan at the present
time and it is the general opinion
that the company will far better
serve the interest of the stockhold-
ers by deferring any such action un-
til a later time. Costs of all mine
and mill equipment have advanced,
in many instances over 100 per
cent, and it is impossible to secure
a contract for the delivery of ma
chinery within a period of six
months. The company has per
formed a large amount of develop
ment work, in a highly economical
manner and under the most capable
engineering skill possible to obtain.
a discovery that appears to be i'm
portant was made some time ago
on a part of the property that has
not heretofore been prospected and
this is believed to add materially to
the value of the property. The
company will be practically under
no expense until it Is ready to fl
nance the building of a mill to
treat it's ores.

u, 8. to Take Time.

Austria's latest official note. which
appears to be a bid for separate
peace. was received by the State De-
partment late yesterday from the
Swedish Legation.
Its contents. which are said to con-
form to the press dispatches, will be
made public today. The appearance
OF the note did not cause a ripple of
excitement in official quarters and the
Impression given was that this would
have been the case had its receipt
been unheralded.
While the natural course to pursue
with regard to the note will be its
Transmission to the Supreme War

HUNS PUNISH FOR
HALF DESTRUCTION
Army Order Enjoins Care in Firing
and Well POISONING

.
/. A captured German army order
which provides punishment for sol.
diers who only partly destroy
houses and buildings in territory
they evacuate. and who forget to
poison wells. was received today
by the French High Commission.
IL was an order to the 1osth In
fantry Brigade, signed by Week"
and 1t says in part:
AN order of the army prescribes
to attend henceforth to the destruc-
tions indicated with more method
and less haste. The divisions AL
ready have been notified that they
will be held responsible for their
failure to destroy huts located in
their zones; hence everything must
be ready to be set fire. The reserve
lieutenant, Krause, with his half
company of pioneers, has already
received special orders for the de-
struction of the villages.
1T is recalled that wells are to
be contaminated. The mines are
not to be made to explode too
early; for there might be danger of
cutting the roads and interfering
with communications of great i'm
portance.
Outside OF designated units, it is
the duty of everyone to participate
