Smashing Buggy aud Crippling: Itself. A five-cent drink cost William Bolt of Liverpool a horse and buggy. Yes terday he hitched up to drive to the depot at Liverpool. Before he arriv ed he decided to go into a saloon am; have something. His horse became im patient and walked away. When Bolt came out of the tavern a few mo ments later his horse was nowhere to be found. He hurried back home tc find that the horse hail reached the farm ahead ot him. in passingthrough the barnyard the horse evi dently tried to make a short cut to the oats box, with the result that it rac into a mowing machine and before the farm hands succeeded in extricating the frightcne'd animal, it had been so badly cut about the legs that ii had to be completely shot.

T.'urir.g the evening a dainty hir.ch was served. The couple were presented with a beautiful Morris chr.ir and mission lamp. Trouble Assaln at the Mi'.!. All last week and again last night th.j busheling mill of the Republic Iron z Steel company was down. This is due to the fact that there is such a scarcity of laborers. This, of course, it&iows a great number of other men

out of work, an the entire busheling mill is closed. This shut down is unavoidable, and there are no very bright prospe-cts in the mar future. The labor question for several months has been a source of great trouble to the company, this being the second or third occasion of tiiis kind.

IlrCt-r Street Car Service FroiuUctl. The Hammond and East Chicago cars are now having power furnished by the Ease Chicago electric plant. At this time- it is not known definitely whether or not this will be a permanent arrangement, as the engines here are taxed to their utmost capacity lurnishing lights for the city. However, if this trial proves satisfactory, some a'angemer ts will be made whereby the cars will be furnished more and better power, which will impiove the service- greatly. For the p." st fw weeks the cars between East Chicago and Hammond have been hampered to a great extent on account of insufthient power. Sometimes the cars were stopped for five or ten minutes, having absolutely no power. Any improvement along this line, however small, will be greatly appreciated by the traveling public. In this connection It might be added that a street car system between East Chicago and Grasselll would be a boon to this city. The Lake Shore trains each day take out of and to Grasselll at least two hundred people, where. If these people hail any facilities to get hack and forth to East Chicago would much prefer to live here. This would be a good" proposition for the new council to take up and agitate. WHEN IT IS AO LIE. When is a lie not a lie? When you kis-i the braised flesh of a baby's finger and tell him it will hurt no more. W hen you tell the dear sick one. look ing with eager and anxious eyes to ward the snores of health, how bilgrht they look anil how they are improving day by day. When the doctor with a happy smile assures the patient that he is "on the mend" and will soon be out. When the captain on the wide waste of the sea with a sinking ship calms the rising frantic fears until he can launch the boats away. XlSVmi MIX ('ll)KH A XI) VI.i:r,AK. If there is a cider mill near by it will pay to have the surplus apples ground up into cider, says Farming. It is almost always readily marketable as vinegar. Sweet cidi-r should never be added to vinegar, because the acetic acid in the vinegar will preent the sugar in the cider from being converted into alcohol, and consequently the result will be a very poor e;uali:y of watery vinegar. HIS STRENGTH AYOIL1) FAIL IIIM. Oliver Wendell Holmes was invited to di'lirer a lecture in the central part to deliver a lecture in a town in the central part of Massachusetts. He was net feeling very well, and lie wrote the following reply to the committee in declining the invitation: "I am far from being in good physical health, and I am satisfied that if I were offered a $"0 bill after my lecture I should not have the stiength to refuse it." HIS "DOI IILK." The Genial Mark Twain complains tint he has a most surprising number of "doubles." Only the other day a gentleman wrote to bin from Florida saying that he had been taken so often for Mr. Clemens that he thought it a matter of duty to sentl his photograph to the icl original. The likeness, as shown by the picture, was ceitainly remarkable so much so, indeed, that Mark sat down and wrote the? following reply: "My Dear Sir I thank you very much for your letter and the photograph. In ray opinion, you are certainly more like me than any other of my doubles. In fact, I am sure that if you stood before me in a mirrorless frame, I could shave myself by you." SELLS SHOES "I5HOKEX IV." One clerk who had earned the reputation of being the best saleswoman in the shoe department was asked the secret of, lie r success. " I pell all shoes that have been returned," she explained. "The other girls are afiaid to show them, but I find them the best sellers. One house is liberal in its treatment of dissatisfied customers, antl we get back a good many pairs of shos that have been worn around the house until they are rartly broken In. These shoes are much more comfortable than a brand new pair. The soles may be a trifle soiled, but the customer who puts ease above every other cbnsequencetaoin above every other consideration does not mind that, consequently I r.ell shoes while the other girls only lit them cn." New York Globe. TIED CAT TO TAIL OF KITE. D A. Harding of South Be:d, twenty years old. was found guilty Saturday of cruelty to a cat. He tied the cat to a tail of a kite and the cat fell when the kite was 300 feet high. The cat was only stunr.eu by the fall, and he killed it with a hatchet. THE POWDER PUFF. It reposes on every toilet table. Yet few who use it know anything about itIt is a bit of down from swans, wild geese or eider ducks. As many as 20.000 young swans are kilied yearly to supply it. This in addition to innumerable young geese and ducks. The swans and geese who make this offering at beauty's shrine live on the islands of Baltic and in Norway and Sweden. The eider ducks are inhabitants of the northern and ice-bound seas. One young swan, or cygnet, will make nearly a dozen average-sized puffs. The down of a cygnet costs little more than 25 cents. A single puff, however, when mount ed, sells at irom 51 up. So it will be seen tJiat the puJf trade la a profitable one.
