IS Writer Says That He Did Not Charge Council and the Mayor With Being a Set of Crooks. (Continued from Page One) they will, be made fearlessly and direct-and when in possession of such evidence as will substantiate such a charge. There will be no weak indirect inferences of such possible conditions existing. I am thankful however, jthat the "laying of my communication on the table" does not necessarily lay me on the table, and it is not in the power of the council to administer an intimidating anaesthetic and put me to sleep. Let that be understood. Mayor Zimmerman says in the opening of his "address" to the council defending his position "My word is as : good as that of Bavis." What caused that remark, Mr. Mayor? Had I disputed your word about anything? Oh yes! I see now. You had Just made the statement that your absence from the meeting when the committee's report was up for consideration was caused by "sickness," and I suppose it had just occurred to you that you had told me personally at a cigar store Friday evening, March 1st "That you stayed away from the meeting for a purpose." Since the value or quality of ono's word is to be determined, ; which of these two stories is the truth? If you were "very sick," as you Bald you were, why did you tell me you stayed away on purpose? I did 'not ask you the reason for your abscence. You gave it to me voluntarily. You may not be accountable to me , for what you say and do, and I am thankful the responsibilities of keeping account of what you say and do, ; does not rest with me. As far as the Rvalue of our respective words Is concerned, the public may be the judge. Yours truly, .A. Bavis, - 411 N. ISth. You can get Sweet Cream .already whipped at Price's. His Mild Penalty. Representative Bell of Georgia was showing a rural constitutent about the capitol, and among other places took him Into the supreme court room. , "I think we have too many courts." remarked the constituent, "l 'know what I'm talking about, too, because I happen to be a Judge myself that is, a Justice of the peacel ' Year before last I had a fellow before me for snatching a pocketbook from a helpless girl, and "I" gave him such a sentence as he, deserved, but danged if one of the. higher courts didn't undo It all." "What was your sentence?" Inquired Bell. '"I sentenced the blamed cur to be hung," replied tho visitor. She Saw the Joke. Mrs. Helen Hambidge. the writer, has an English friend who" Is "a perfectly dear girl," but has no more sense of humor than a clock. Mrs. Hambidge tried some humor on her the other day, but never a smile came. "Then," said Mrs. Hambidge, "I told her an anecdote. " 'Of course, I said, 'you have heard the old story of the girl from Iceland who, was sent to a Harlem flat by an employment agent to do the housework. The mistress asked her to state her accomplishments. She could not cook, it seemed, nor wash dishes, nor do the weekly wash, nor make beds, nor sweep, nor dust. " "Then what In the world can you do ?' asked the exasperated housewife. ""Veil,"' said the girl shyly, "Ay elioll milk dan reindeer. "My English friend looked at me solemnly. I laughod a little in a perfectly ladylike way just to show her that it was really a funny story. So ehe relaxed. "Isn't it odd. said she, 'what fun they make of Harlem?' "Herbert Corey in Cincinnati Times-Star. . Keeping Up Appearances. A typical aristocrat was the first Marquis of Abercorn. He died in ISIS, but is still revered in Ulster under the name of "The Owld Marquis." This admirable nobleman always went out shooting in his blue ribbon and required his housemaids to wear white kid gloves when they made his bed. Before he married his first cousin. Miss Cecil Hamilton, he induced the prince regent to confer on her the titular rank of an earl's daughter, that he might not marry beneath his position, aud when he discovered she contemplated eloping he sent a message begging her to take the family coach, as it ought never to be said that Lady Abercorn left ber husband's .roof in , a hack chaise.

Charming Costume of Lace and Taffeta. LINGERIE FROCK WITH SILK COAT. The lingerie frocks of high degree have adorable little taffeta coats, which make them very dressy for afternoon occasions. The model Illustrated of venlse lace and cream net has a coat of green shot taffeta trimmed with white ball buttons, and the upper bodice of net has long sleeves of green taffeta. THE NO GLOVE MOVEMENT. Rings With Large Settings Responsible For Change. There Is an old saying that a French woman dons her gloves in the privacy of her boudoir, an Englishwoman while coming down the stairs, and the American tugs on her gloves when halfway down the street And if this is so it would appear as though for once the Parisians are imitating their American contemporaries. The no glove fashion is particularly noticeable in Paris, where many smart women are carrying their gloves in their bands instead of putting them on. The gloves they carry are exceedingly fine suede ones in beautiful tints of biscuit, ecru and tan. For some little time past women have been flouting the old inexorable law that the hands should be covered" in the evening, and at the theaters aud the less ceremonious parties the wearing of gloves has been on the decrease. There is also a new liking for duck's foot yellow gloves, which several years ago were exceedingly modish. These are worn for morning walks. The reason assigned for the no glove movement is the fact that rings with very large gem settings are fashionable, and muffs arc exceedingly popular. It Is customary to take to the theater a large muff, in which the hands are burled. But the gloves must be there, too, loosely carried in the hands after the manner affected by men. Crepe de Chine Underwear. Each year the return of summer brings us something new in the way of undergarments. This year's innovation is to be crepe de chine, and there is no doubt that it will be exceedingly cool and comfortable. We will tind all our old favorites developed in this material, combinations, princess slips and nightgowns, and they will all be glorified.

shades, while the more elaDorate affairs, and likewise the more expensive, are decorated with flowers, rosettes and wreaths made of chiffon and ribbon. The more simple and practical garments are lace trimmed, cluny being the favorite, as it is on the fine uodermuslins. though Irish edging and ribbou are used.
Useful Things te Know. Starch should be mixed with soap water, for thus the linen will have a more glossy appearance and be less likely to stick to the iron? Moisten grease spots with cold water and soda before scrubbing, as this will cause them to be more easily removed ? Good black ink mixed with the white of an egg is excellent to restore the color to black kid gloves or shoes? Any kind of steamed bread will be tastier if it is baked ten or fifteen minutes immediately on being taken from the steamer and before being removed from the mold? If new cake tins are put on top of the stove until they have a bluish color, but not until they become bnrned. cake will not stick to them during the baking as It usually does to new tins? Homemade Linoleum. Take any old carpet that is whole, but too shabby for use. and tack it down smoothly on the kitchen floor. Make a good thick boiled starch of flour and water and rnb a coat of this on the carpet with a whitewash brush. In about twenty-four hours or when the starch is dry give a coat of pamt any color suitable. Dark red Is a serviceable color and wears welL A Test In Courtesy. "ln banking, as In personal finance.'' remarked a suburban banker the other day, "the old adage. Take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves,' holds good. Just to Illustrate. I've been a banker for thirty years. Courtesy made my success largely. A couple of years ago a woman whose brothers were depositors with us dropped in to see me and said she wanted to open an account. I arranged everything and then asked how much her Initial deposit would be. When she said $5 I never quavered. I took it. Two days later she deposited $15,000. That account has never averaged less than $5,000 from that day. See what she was up to? She wanted to know how courteously small depositors were treated." New York Tribune. One on the Court. When John Barton Payne was on the bench he was considered a purist and showed impatience if a lawyer slipped a cog and committed a grammatical error. On one occasion he "called" counsel for an assault upon the king's English with intent to maim and took up the examination of the witness himself. Later in the trial the attorney had considerable difficulty in bringing out the location of a certain ash box. and Judge Payne turned to the witness to say sharply: "You knew this ash box. didn't you?" "No, your honor," answered the witness, "but I knew of it." "One on the court, observea"Tudge Payne. "Proceed with the case." Chi. cago Post. His Deathbed Jest. When Charles Mathews the elder was lying upon his deathbed a friend. Intending to give him a dose of medicine, banded bim by accident some Ink from a small vial. On discovering when too late the mischief he said. "Good heavens. Mathews, I have given you a dose of ink!" "Never never mind, my boy," was the faint reply. "I'll swallow a bit of blotting paper." a Crying Baby Always.

DEMOCRATS ARE TO -'ATTEND A MEET!!!
Indiana Democratic Club to Plan a Membership Campaign. A number of local Democrats will attend the meeting of the Indiana Democratic club to be held at Indianapolis this evening. The purpose of the meeting is to plan a campaign for augmenting the membership. The campaign will be begun Monday, June 10, and will be concluded Saturday, June 22. Each member of the club who obtains twelve new members will be awarded a round-trip ticket to the Democratic convention, which is to be held at Baltimore. Fred B. Johnson, formerly of this city, has been appointed chairman of the executive committee. The organization of soliciting teams is to be on the basis of the city wards and precincts. In addition there will be a number of "scouting" teams. OKio snd the Buckeye. 'I'd name Buckeye, though of earlier origin, became indelibly affixed to Ohio in the tire eating campaign of when General William Henry Harrison started out as the Whig candidate for the presidency and shortly became the "log cabin and bard cider" candidate. He was pictured sitting in a rough cabin, a barrel of cider handy to bis elbow and strings of buckeyes upon the wall at bis back. Cabins ot buckeye poles were erected . upon wagons and carried in Whig pa rades. One of the songs of the campaign ran: We'll wheel it to the capital and place it there elate For a token and a sign of the bonny Buckeye State. The predecessors of the modern button men were a credit to the trade. In the Harrison campaign they sold Ohio buckeyes turougboutthe country, canes from the buckeye tree and woven emblems in the shuie of the buckeye leaf. Thenceforth Ohio was the Buckeye State. The unassertive tree, with Its worthless nut and fetid bark, is' not, it is true, anything to take a vast pride in. But there's no escaping the sobriquet. That Is established possibly for as long as Ohio Is a state. Toledo Blade. Greenland's Glaciers. The iceberg has Its birth in the rocky fiords ot western Greenland. Under the ever present and irresistible pressure of "Greenland's icy mountains." the great ice cap, the remnant of that which once extended down over the northern part of the present United States, countless glaciers move toward the sea from an elevation of 9,000 feet This sheet of Ice covers an area estimated to be from 300,000 to 400.000 square miles or from six "to eight times that of New York state. It Is believed that its depth in some parts is more than G.000 feet. The Ice gradually moves down the fiords to the sea level, having a greater or less speed, according to the season of the year, some of the glaciers traveling In the summer time as much as fifty or sixty feet a day. Exchange TAKE LIFE JOYOUSLY. Take life too ss riously, and what is it worth? If the morning wake us to no new joys, if the evening bring us not the hope of new pleasures, is it worth while to dress and undress? Does the sun shine on me today that I may reflect on yesterday, that I may endeavor to foresee and control what can neither be foreseen nor controlled the destiny of tomorrow? Goethe. Battle Creek, Mich.

WATER SOFTENER TO SAVE CITY MONEY The water softener system bought some time ago for the city light plant is almost completed, and with the exception of some minor connections is ready for use. It Is expected to put the new system into use within a week, when the city plant will be enabled to secure absolutely pure water for the boilers. It is claimed that the saving in boiler repairs will more than pay for the cost of the water softener in a few years. The total cost of tfc water softener installed and ready for operation is about $2,250.
