STATION AGENT WAS RIGHT
Negro Messenger at Least Learned
Something Of More or Less I'M
portance to Senator.

A southern senator, whose home Is
in the country some two miles from
the railway, received a telegram which
indicated the need for his immediate
presence in a nearby city. The train
schedule had been recently changed,
and the telephone was not working.
so a negro was sent to find out when
a train would pass the station. 1t
was three hours later when the negro
shambled into the yard.
where have you been, you black
rascal? Does it take three hours to
ask when a train will be dueT' the
Tuning senator demanded.
Now. Marse Henry" the negro
protested, "yo' know hit dom take no
three hours ter ak when er train
gwine pass by. But, Aarse Henry,
All done hear 20 say yo'se'f dat dat
station agent am a liar an yo can't
take his word for muffin, so when he
tor me, All didn't pay no 'tention,
but des' stayed to see fer myself. An
for once in his life dat man tot de
truf-dat ole train sho did come rollin'

= LOCAL AND PERSONAL I.

Mrs. Harry Butler, of Revipa, Neb.,
is in the city this week a guest at the
home Of her uncle, Ned Curtis and
family.
]. J. Lane, who has been making
an extended tour OF the west, came
from Baker, Montana, this morning
and will make a prolonged visit at
the home of his son, F. d. Lane and
family.
Aubrey Herndon left last night for
Kansas City, Mo-, to look after some
business matters. From there he
expected to go to Ravenwood, Mo-, to
attend a big Spotted Poland China
Hog sale. He will likely make some
purchases to add to his already splen-
did herd.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jake Meyer, who
have been in Canada several weeks
visiting at the home OF their son,
Neal Meyer and family, returned
home this morning. They say they
had fine time but were glad to get
back to good old Audubon. Both
are looking well as the trip seems to
have agreed with them.
s. S. Wilson was a passenger to
Marengo this morning, where he will
spend week with his brother Fred
Wilson and family. Fred used to
come up here quite often on a visit
but he has been so busy in the auto
mobile business here Of late that he
hasn't time to leave home. However,
if he should ever have a dull spell,
his many friends would be glad to
have him pay them a visit.

Professor W. Fl. Bragg Of the Royal
institution, London, England, has
enunciated a new theory as to the
bathroom. "Why do so many people
sing in the bathroom" asked the pro-
fessor, and Juvenile audience broke
out into laughter, remembering the
impulse that selzes them to break out
into song when they are having bath.
The professor explained that the note
is struck for them by the running wa
ter. He also pointed out that, while
the voice sounds resonantly in the
bathroom, 1t Is not half so fine or In
spring when a song is continued In
the dressing room. The same author
ity explained that the bubbles of
steam formed at the bottom of boil
ing kettle, nearest to the flame, tried
to get to the top, and coming into con-
tact with water of lower tempera-
ture fell back again with sounds like
tiny hammer strokes on hard sub
stance.

YOUTH He WAS LOOKING FOR
Usually Rocky Road Of Love unex.
pectedIy Smoothed Out by Irate
Old Banker.

Sometimes the course of true love
does upset all accepted theories by
running smoothly, and when the voy-
ayers on that uncertain stream are
most fearful of rocks ahead. At least
il was like this in the case of the only
daughter of New York banker, Of
whom most of the young lady's suitors
were in deadly terror. Ordinarily the
proverbial sorehead bear would have
been a mild and inadequate compari-
son to this old gentleman.
The father had on number of oc-
casions observed his daughter in in
innate discourse with one Of the young
men from his own bank and, watching
his opportunity, cornered them to-
gether.
well. young man." the banker
Numbered threateningly, what are
your intentions, hey? Just what do
you mean, hanging about my daughter,
hey? Answer me, sir !"
The young man spoke up frankly.
ITO tell the truth, sir, l haven't any
intentions, and don't mean anything.
OF course, Hazel and / love each
other, but my salary is too small to
get married on, and l can't ask her
to wait until she's an old woman-as
she'd probably have to. No, don't
see any hope for me at ALL"
That's all right, my boy" the
banker told him, his face suddenly
beaming with kindness. go ahead
and marry her. Why, it's the plain
duty Of a chap who shows that much
sense to get married right away"

tube. spider fashion, or sllkworm fash

il fastens itself to any rock to which
il wishes to adhere. When the puma
moves on to fresh feeding grounds its
silken cable is left behind. This cable,
