STRINGENT RULES

Adopted by the .Commissioners at Hartford City.

Because applications for liquor licenses have abused ^certain privileges and used questionable methods the board of Commissioners, at Hartford City have adopted stringent rules governing the issuing of licenses which will further restrict applicants who desire to obtain licenses in that county.

Applicants will be required to bring two reputable witnesses to the board, who must not be gamblers, saloon-kee or owners of the room where the applicant propos.es to sell said liquor.

Saloonkeepers seeking a new license, must take up and pay for his succeeding licenses within one day of the date of the expiration of his old license unless the new license be granted for another room. Failure to do so, will mean the cancellation of the license. Other restrictions are placed about the granting of licenses that is strictly in keeping with good business principles and will effectually disarm those who have practiced methods that were questionable and some instances dishonest,

With "A lovely day! Good morning, Mr. Jones."

Ah, the period of all things that grow endearing Is as fleeting as the dew upon the grass! We have felt it the misfortune we were fearing

From the very first has come at length to pass. For our office boy has left us we are lonely.

He is merely now a memory of the past. He was with us but a fleeting fortnight only

And has vanished, for he was too good to last. We could tolerate his cigarettes and novels

And his whistling, which was constant, loud and shrill, But I drew the line when he remarked this morning, "Gee, yer lookin on de hog dis mornin',

Bill!"

"Dropping an acquaintance." —Philadelphia Bulletin.

Beware!

This harrowing tale is told by a Texas newspaper: A Houston gallant went fishing and landed a fine catfish, which he most chivalrously presented to his sweetheart. Invited, he remained for supper, got a bone in his throat, and in kicking under the table to dislodge the intrusion he hit his girl's favorite corn an awful lick, which has led to a breakoff.

Moral.—Bat oysters.

THE NEW OFFICE BOY.

He's a modest little curly headed fellow, "Whose age is scarcely greater than eleven The effulgence of his locks of tawny yellow-

Is suggestive of a halo born of heaven. We were smitten with his most uncommon beauty.

And we doomed hitn far too perfect for this earth When he modestly reported here for duty,

All unconscious of his transcendental worth. Oh, the sweetness of his early morning greeting

In those first few days! Hpw soft his boyish tones As he handed me my letters in the morning

TRAVELER. ...

Few newspapers in the United States are able to command the services of as brilliant a corps of correspondents as that of the a go or a I choice of a correspondent is indicative of The Record-Herald's policy of obtaining the best there is to be had. Walter Wellman, the well known author on political subjects and one of the ablest writers of the day, acts in that capacity.

Mr. Wellman was born in Mentor, Ohio, Nov. 3, 1858. At the age of 14 he began his newspaper experience, establishing at that age a weekly paper in the little town of Sutton, Neb. In 1878 he returded to Ohio and a year later established the Cincinnati Evening Post. In 1884 he became the Washington correspondent of the Chicago Herald and in 1892 he visited Central America and the West Indies and located the landing place of Columbus on Watling's (San Salvador) Island, and marked the spot with a huge stone monument. Mr. Wellman's dashes for the north pole are well known. In 1894 he made the first of his two Arctic voyages of exploration, reaching the latitude of 81 degrees northeast of Spitsbergen. In 1898 he returned to the North, penetrated to Franz Josef Land, returning again to this country in 1899. On each trip he met with wonderful success* in the discovery of new islands and lands, and brought back with him scientific data and information of great value to the American Geographical Society.

Mr. Wellman has been a voluminous writer tor scientific magazines andnpopular periodicals. On returning from his arctic trips he renewed his connection with The Record-Herald and is now the "Washington correspondent of that paper. His incisive discussion of contemporary affairs has given him a high place in the regard of statesmen and scientists of the day.
