Several reasons are cited why the mayor may nip the aldermanic buds. ways

In the first place the fear is expressed that Aldermen Castleman will control

the vote of these two men as their election was apposed by the council

minority, and had it not been for Castleman" s manipulations, Baukus or Gib

son would not have been named by the council majority which in this case

consisted of Castleman, Walsh, Szymanski and Simiasko.

Mayor Knotts realizes Castleman's growing power. Walsh always votes

with him and Szymanski and Simiasko invariably do. This has enabled Castleman to dominate in most instances and if the two new aldermen tack

their colors to his it will mean that Castleman with his own vote will un

doubtedly control a solid six-voting machine and with such power behind

him he could ignore the mayor entirely who is supposed to hold the reins,

but in reality he has had to bow to Castleman a good deal of late.

Of late the mayor has realized this and traces of jealousy are already

"I say to you, you might as well know it now, as the interests already have had proof of it, that as long as I occupy the seat of Oliver P. Morton in the Senate of the United States I will take orders from nobody except the people." This defiant declaration from the lips of Senator Beveridge Friday night brought a roar of demonstrative approval from the 2,000 cr more Con-

nersville persons who packed Auditorium Theater to the doors.

"What! dull, when you do not know what gives its loveliness of form

to the lily, its depth of color to the violet,, its fragrance to the iose; when

ou do not know in what consists the venom of the adder any more than

you can imitate the glad movements of the dove. What! dull, when earth, air, and water are all alike mysteries to you, and when, as you stretch out your hand, you do not touch anything the properties of which you have mastered, while all the time nature is inviting you to talk earnestly with her, to under

stand her, to subdue her, and to be blessed by her! Go away, man; learn something, understand something; do something, and let me hear no more of your dullness!" Sir Arthur Helps.

I was reminded of that quotation the other day when, while waiting in

an intelligence ofiJce to interview a prospective maid, I drifted into conversation with the woman beside me.

She was a fine look woman, evidently about sixty if you judged from

he casual mention of married children and numerous grandchildren, but not a day over fifty if you judged from her fresh, cheerful appearance and her

alert manner.

The thing that impressed me about her and reminded me of the quota

tion was what she said when I asked her if she had been waiting long.

She consulted her watch and appeared surprised. "Why, it's about an hour," she said, "but it doesn't seem half so long.

Most of my friends think that hunting up a maid is the worst bore in the world; but do you know, if I'm not too busy I actually enjoy sitting in an intelligence office. It's so interesting to study the people who come in. Why, its really as good as a matinee to me."

At ninety, if she lives and I hope she does, for the world needs more

like her that woman will be happy and still a gooi companion, both for

herself and other people.

Sir Arthur says there are so many tantalizing, defiant mysteries, so

many invitations to thought and speculation in the world, that no one has a right to be dull. Seems to me there are even more delightful mysteries, even

more alluring invitations to thought and speculation in the world of men and women about one. The reason that woman looked fifty instead of sixty was undoubtedly because she has accepted those invitations and had been too busy and too interested to grow old.

An intelligence office, a trolley car, a shop, a hotel lobby, a business

office all these can be as absorbing as a drama or as tedious as a dictionary.

It just depends on you. Which wil you have them?
