Field Examiners Dailey and P.rtne hate completed the work of examining the records ot the county cletk i and sheriff s office for the year 1912. Their report will be filed with the date hoard of accounts and the result will be forthcoming a’, a later date.—Portland Sun The examiners came here yesterday. In the August American Magazine John A Moroeo, a New York news paper man. writes a story of fire, sky rapen; and heroism, entitled "Finne gan. in which he conveys the siiggcs tion that skyscrapers may be dangerous if a fire extends above the fjf. teenfh story. Hit- idea seems to h. that water in suft'Ment quantities to be useful in fire fighting cannot in the ordinary city be elevated to such i height, and, inasmuch as the elevators. and other means of exit go out ol business in case of a lire, there is considerable danger. Coroner E H. Kruse yesterday returned a verdict on the death of Earn ent Workman, assistant manager of the Alt Heidellmrg, in which Workman is blamed for careless driving. The verdict, after setting fortli the usual description and other details, says Workman “came to his death as tjie re suit of injuries received following an automobile accident occurring on the Leo road on July 22. I further find that Earnest Workman, an inexperienced driver, was driving a hlgh-pow-eied automobile at a high rat" of speed and that as a result of said earelesi- driving -aid automobile left the main read while rounding the "Urvo known as Blakey's curve on the .

HER MOMENT OF PERFECT JOY iLittl« Girl Got What She Wanted When She Wanted It, and Therein Lies a Moral. A girl wearing a gay bit of goldenrod in her coat was hurrying through the crowded railroad station of an ’ eastern city one evening, when she was stopped by a thin little hand thrust up toward her through tho dusk, and a child's cry, “Lady, give mo that flower.” It was-not a plea, it was not a request. It was a demand, and the flower was in the child’s hands, the happiness of her sad little face had flashed close for an instant and the ! quick feet had scurried away into the darkness before tho girl who had worn the goldenrod had time to look or think, to give or to refuse. The flower had grown on a rock by the sea. It was still wet with the mist from tho waves and the sunset glow was reflected in its gold. Perhaps the child had never particularly noticed the sun, for, except when it was abovs the tall buildings, she could not have seen It. Hut the desire of all the world for the sun and the open sea was in her voice Perhaps she was a very ordinary little girl, who grew up to be a little bigger and then worked in a factory, and liked to walk up and down the streets with the other girls and show off her cheap gay clothes. She probably married, and had several little girls like herself, and was always tired and poor, but, as far as she knew, happy enough. All that makes very little difference. At least it is the way things are. The important thing is that once she wanted something very much, and got what she wanted when she wanted it. It is good to want things whether we get them or not. It Is better to get them. It is best of all to get them when we want them. This was no common desire such as most of us have every day. It was so strong and true and imperative that a tiny girl fought her way through a great crowd of people and without thought or feat took a flower from a girl's coat. No matter what happened to her after that, she had one moment of perfect joy. Perhaps the girl from whose coat she tore the flower may have had al! good things for hers, but may never have known the joy because she never knew that want. ■ Taking a Chance. Senator Leo S. Overman of North Carolina, when a young man, was private secretary to Gov. Vance of that state. The governor was a candidate for election to the United States senate, and his most formidable opponent was Senator Merriman, at that time the incumbent. In the heat of the campaign young Overman fell in love with Merriman's ! daughter, and prosecuted his suit with i all the ardor of a southern wooer. At , length things reached a stage where he felt that he could no longer continue to hold his position as secretary to the opponent of the father of his lady-love. So, In a heart-to-heart talk with Gov. Vance he confided the true state of affairs, setting forth that while his position as secretary was highly advantageous to him front a sordid, worldly point of view, it was well sacrifled on the altar of love, etc. “Don't be a fool, son,” interrupted the governor. "If Merriman can stand you for a son-in-law, I reckon I can stand you for a secretary!” Overman held down both jobs. Hs Had the Fish. The new senator from Kentucky. Ollie James, is a great fisherman, and enjoys nothing more than to relate some tale of the amateur. On one occasion In Kentucky there was observed a man who had never flshed before. His rod waa new and shiny. He was whipping a trout stream, when, by some chance, he got a bite. He did not play the fish at all. With rod straight ahead, ha i slowly and steadily reeled in his catch. How he managed to hold the i fish was a mystery. Pretty goon the fish was directly below- the end of the rod. hut the amateur did not stop. He continued to reel and reel, and. just as the observer reached the water's edge the fish’s head touched the tip. Then the fisherman actually tried to pull hfs> catch through the ring. Ke did not, of course, succeed. “What shall I do now?” he asked of the amused Kentuckian on the bank. "About the only thing you can do i now,” said the latter, “is to climb up i the pole after the fish." —Judge. i " Are You Thankful You Can Smell! Did It ever occur to you to be grate ful for the sense of smell? Probably not, and yet those who have been deprived of It have felt their loss keenly Harriet Martineau, the famous English writer, lacked the sense of smell and consequently the sense oF taste, ♦hich depends on smell Once and only once she tasted in all the intensity of flavor a slice of a leg of mut- ■ ton. The sense came to her suddenly and she thought and hoped it had , come to stay. “I was going out to a great dinner , that night,” she said when telling of her one taste, “and I looked forward with great eagerness to the dainties that I knew would he set before me ' How I should enjoy practicing my I new found sense of taste!” But. alas, the sense of taate disap- , peared as suddenly as it had come, and never returned, and she went through life remembering that taste of roast mutton as one of ber keuaeat lor* ,
