Eau d Cologne. It is stated in a foreign contemporary that the chief condition to the achievement of a perfect preparation of eau de cologne is prolonged storage. The production of this world famous article in its original home in Cologne is carried on in the simplest manner. The ethereal oils are first mixed with the wine Bpirits. and the mixture, after two months' digestion, is distilled at gentle heat. The preparation is then placed in kegs and removed to the cellar, where it lies rive or six years, and only then is placed on the market. PALLADIUM WANT ADS.

JESSUP WILL TRY TO LAND BIG GENE MOORE FOR TEAM
Lengthy Pitcher Has Signed With South Bend and Jessup Hopes to Get Him from Manager Grant. HAMILTON WILL BE IN INDIANA-OHIO LEAGUE. Manager De Armond Writes That It Is an Assured Fact That He Will Enter the Circuit Other Baseball News. Big Gene Moore, the idol of the Richmond baseball fans, has returned his signed contract to Manager Grant of the South IJend Central League team, but it is doubtful if the big fellowwill be a member of the South Bend team this coming season. Manager Jessup wants Moore for the locals and he will make every effort to secure him from Grant. It is an open secret that Grant and Moore have always been at swords points and Gene has never done the work for South Bend tnat ho is capable of doing. If Jessup succeeds in getting Grant to farm him out the coming .season to Richmond, it is thought tYiat there will be but little trouble in inducing him to play here. Moore and Jessup are the best of friends and he likes Richmond, if he is a member of the local pitching staff this season Richmond fans will be as happy as a bunch of women at a knockfest. "Tacks" Fisher, pitcher and general utility man for the Quakers last season, has been sold by the South Bend team to Sharon, Pa., team in the O. P. league. Fisher was farmed out to Richmond last year by South Bend. Fisher will play first base for Sharon and his work will be followed with keen interest by the local fans. Fisher is a brilliant fielder, but is weak at the slick. If he picks tip in this department, of the game there is no reason why he should not be advanced to the fastest company. A letter received from Manager John DeArmoud of the Hamilton team states that he has been offered a site for a baseball park in that city by the street car company and that the outlook is most satisfactory. "I am not allowing any grass to grow under me, and you can state that Hamilton will be represented in the Indiana-Ohio league this season." he concludes his letter. OeArniond hopes to have all the details connected with placing a club in Hamilton, shaped up by the time of the next league meeting, which will be held at Anderson February L'7. He is being backed in his efforts to organize a Hamilton club by several prominent men of that city. Manager Jessup states that he will order his players to report here about the first of April. After giving them a few days to limber up and get the winter kinks out of their muscles. Jessup will sic his pennant chasers on various independent and league clubs until the opening of the l.-O. league season. There is a prospect that 'several National league. American League, American Association and Central league teams will play exhibition games here during the month of April. "Bunny" Pierce, the clever catcher and infielder. who finishel last season in the Indiana-Ohio league, has bucked on the salary offered him by the Cincinnati Reds. Pierce is probably standing in his own light, for his only hope of high salary lies in the opportunity to make good in fast company. Otherwise he will be compelled to spend his entire base ball career in the minors. -Van Wert Bulletin. . When Nick Alt rock was a witness in timrt the other day, his criminal rec- ! ord was brought to light. It seems i that he was once arrested and the sharp lawyer compelled him to confess j ah the dreadful details. It seems that i when Nick was younger than he is now he crawled under the side wall of a circus tent. He wanted to see the show and he didn't have the price. He got inside without detection, but there was a copper standing between him and the show. Nick was armed with a deadly weapon in the shape of a pin and this he inserted, without warning, in a prominent portion of the policeman"s anatomy. For this felonious assault he was arrested by his victim. That is the dreadful record. Ho Didn't Paint It.

SURGEONS' CHARGES. Method by Which, It Is Said, the Fee Are Regulated. Frequently laymen who have had occasion to settle the bills of surgeon3 upon whom they have called in extremities to use the knife are heard to complain against what they call the exorbitant charges of surgeons." A skilled suvwvm may chargo $2r0 for a simple appendicitis operation. The patient, who never thinks of complaining until he is convalescent, objects oftentimes to paying the bill. He says, "It is outrageous for a surgeon to charge $250 for half an hour'a work." The question of surgeons' fees often puzzles a patient, lie knows of one man upon whom a surgeon of wide reputation has operated and charged only $75. He may know of another who has paid $1,000 for the same operation. He cannot figure it out. Yet surgeons of known ability ana national, perhaps international, fame have a general plan in charging for operations. Their prices range from nothing to $;,000. They will operate without any question of willingness or ability to pay in any case where the situation Is imperative. Afterward they w ill pf-'sent the bill. The general public does not understand how a surgeon will charge one man $50, another $250 end another $5,000. Surgeons have a nxed price scheme. They aim to charge the patient about one month's income. They figure that any person who is in such bad condition as to be forced to submit to a surgical operation surely can afford to grive one month's Income. They ascertain roughly what a man makes per mouth and send in a bill for that amount. The man whose income is but $50 a month pays $50. The man who gets $5,000 is asked to pay $5,000 and generally objects, even though be should know that his life is worth os much proportionately as that of his poorer fellow. Chicago Tribune. THE SHIPS OF TYRE. Types of These Vessels Still In Use In the Far East. Away back, even when Solomon was king in Israel, tlie ships of Tyre, manned by brave Phoenician sailors, went through the prehistoric canal where the Suez channel is now and navigated from China clear around to England. Their ships were the models for Greece and Rome and later for Venice, the Spaniards aud the Portuguese. Only the Englishman improved on shipbuilding, and from him all modern models have dated. In the old Trye models the waist of the ship was low, so the oars could get good play on the surface of the ocean, and the sterns were lofty, so as to give room for stowing cargoes and to provide dry quarters for the upper mariners. As wind power came into use the waist grew higher and the poop deck disappeared. Step by step from galley to caravel, from caravel to frigate, the British shipwrights improved on the 6hips of Tyre. But in the far east the models have remained much the same, and the ship makers of Persia and India have stuck to the old Tyrlan models to the present day. Today their high square sterns recall the ships of Columbus. The mariners still have to get out of sight of land and steer by stars and the feel of the wind on cloudy nights. They sail around Trinidad and carry pilgrims to Mecca. These vessels, on which the queen of Sheba might have traveled to visit Solomon, are used by native Hindoos, Arabs and by the peoples of IndoChina. On board the captain, his men. the cargoes, pilgrims and sheep, asses and other I've stock live in a proximity that would stir an American's stomach to immediate rebellion. Nashville American. Tha Time to QuarreL In Lanarkshire there lived a laird named Hamilton. He was noted for his peculiarities. On a certain occasion a neighbor waited upon him asking the favor as a neighbor with the loan of 20. It was only a bill of accommodation for three months, which led to the following reply: "Na, na. I canna do that." "What for no', laird? Ye have dune the same thing for itbers." "Aye, aye, Tammas. but there's wheels within ye ken naething aboot! I canna do it." It's a snia' affair to refuse me. laird." Wee!, ye wad get the siller frae the I bank, aud when the time cam' rooud ye wadua l-e ready, and I wad hae to pay't sae you and me wad quarrel.

ALL EYES ARE ON
THE HAGERST CIPAL PLANT The Little City Is the First Small Town in Indiana to Embark Into the Electric Lighting Business. RESIDENTS ARE DIVIDED ON MERITS OF PLANT. Some Think That the Town Council Made a Mistake in Constructing It But This View Is Not Held To by All. Hagerstown, Ind., Feb. There are many residents of Hagerstown who still think that the action of tho corporation in voting to install an electric light plant was unwise and claim that there will not be enough patrons of the plant to make it self sustaining. On the other hand there are those who are equally confident that the plant will not only be self sustaining, but will bring in a small income besides. It is also asserted that if the plant proves to be self supporting and nothing more, the community will bo the gainer by having a well lighted town. Many towns throughout tho country are watching with interest the outcome of the Hagerstown experiment in municipal ownership, as this is one of tho first towns of this sizo in tho country to attempt the installation of such a plant. Although tho construction of this plant will necessitate a slight advance in taxes it is thought that tho advantage in having a well lighted town and reasonably cheap electric lighting and power will offset the increase in taxes. Many contend that the state law is weak in this one respect, that many voters who do not own property or do not even pay poll tax are allowed to cast a vote in a municipal election to determine the establish ment of municipal plants. However had the law been changed to allow only property owners to have had a voico in tho Hagerstown election, it is more than probable that tho property owners would have voted in favor of a municipal plant. The plant, the foundation of which was begun the first of January, is fasti Hearing completion. The building proper has been constructed and tho j engines and other machinery are about all in place. No outside work has been done yet owing to the nonarrival of poles and other equipment, but it is the intention of those having the work in hand to push the outside work as rapidly as possible when the necessary material arrives. The municipal plant building is small and plain in appearance, but at the same time large enough to meet all demands and is built on good proportions. It's exterior dimensions are forty by fifty feet and twelve feet high to the eaves. The foundation is of concrete surmounted by cement blocks. The walls are of brick. The roof is built "hip" shape and is of slate. The floors are of cement. Tho building will :uld much to the beauty of that part of the town where it is located as it is the intention of the city fathers to grade the grounds surrounding and otherwise beautify them. The location for the light plant is all that could be desired, it being Just one square north of Main street and In about the center of tho town. It is thought that the plant will be ready for operation April 1. No one; has yet been engaged to take the man-! agement of the plant, hut that such' a man will not be hard to secure is ' evidenced by tin; numerous applica- j tlons that are now on file in the clerks office. j The town board has adopted tho ' plan or receiving competitive bid j on all constructive supplies in order to secure them at the lowest possible figures, but at. the same time tho board is not sacrificing quality for the sake of price. A number of persons who intended to use electricity for lighting purposes are having their residences and business houses wired, in order to be ready when the plant begins opera-'. tion. The town board has taken a pre-: cautionary action in requiring all wir-'. ing to be thoroughly inspected before allowing the current to bo turned into any building in order to protect property from fire. Watering the Stock. J TTheti the old farmer euterea fne i '"bucket shop," he was angry all over. I ''I don't think I'll invest a cent with j you," he ejaculated. "I just heard, by j hen, that jra handle watered stocks." j The fake broker was nonplused for ' the moment. Quickly recovering his composure, however, he slapped the old farmer on the back and said in his most lubricated tones: "My dear sir. of course our stocks are watered. We water them through precaution." 'Precaution V" "Yes. Iu ;,ese days of Lerce germs and fep-ci'Mis LiiiTulK"! we can't be too par:i.",j:ar. That is why we put all of our stock through a hot water process before putting it on the market." And the old farmer was so tickled he put up another $1.000. Kansas City Independent.
