KLOSTER OF
BULL’S EYE SHOTS.,

Speaking of temporary trouble ,
with the electric lights on Satur
day night. President Jack King of
the Merchants National said to me 1
this morning. “It was one of those
little things that are sprung on us
sometimes, and while we are not
to blame still we are for the mo
ment utterly helpless.
♦ *
♦
Then he told me how it had be
come a custom for the Electric
Street Car Co. to pay its motor
men and brakemen on the 10th. of
each month while the Engineers,
tiremen and other employees were
paid on the 25th. He says that
some days ago engineer Watts
told him that he wanted to be paid
off on the 10th.
* ♦
Later Mr. Watts called on Supt.
Green who refered him to Mr.
King. Mr. King told him that he
did not care to make new rules.
About night, Superintendent Green
discovered the fires under the boil
ers banked. No notice had been
given, but the minerature strike
was on, aud the city was, so far
as the engineer and firemen were
concerned, in total darkness.
*
* *
After some tall hustling, a for
mer engineer was secured and the
fires fed. The new man however
did not understand the machinery
perfectly on so short notice and ■
was compelled to stop the big en
gines a number of times. The
strikers were paid off up to date
today—and the plant with new
labor will be operated in future.
*

Dr. Corput, Hoiuv’i kitver boss
doctor, headed a party of sportsmen
ou Saturday night and went out for a
chase after the Mexican lion. Only a
few Romans were in the crowd, but
it Six Mile Station John Porter and
a crowd of neighbors with a bi» pack
of dogs had gathered, and in a few
hours the bay of the honest watch
dog was only a window by the side
of the yelp sent up by the hounds and
curs. The willipus- wollipus was
chased many miles but was never
ketched.
* **
Last night Col Paul Fenner, et al
to the tune of 72 men and boys had a
midnight tun. Dr. Corput assures
me that the personal of the expedi
tions could not be beaten—and that
every individual went armed to the
teeth. Several of the men had bay
onets on their muskets, and there
were no less than seven pitchforks
and 3 1-2 pairs of brass knucks in the
crowd. The end of this Mexican lion
tail is with the lion aud not in the
keeping of my friends—the Reese
brothers.

V A- A
Youth
Is the period. It Is then that the
mind is freest from care, the imagination
unhampered, the memory most retentive, the
eye brightest, and the nature most
susceptible. What a boy reads in this
period becomes so indelibly impressed upon
his nature that it becomes a part of his very
character.
This is a time when a parent’s responsibility
Is greatest. It is not enough to tel! the boy
what he ought to become. Most boys are
not overly susceptible to didactic
teaching. You can usually lead him a mile
easier than you can drive him a rod. See
that he has the proper surroundings, and a
little encouragement, and it is surprising how
readily he develops a taste for the best
In literature. Let that taste be developed,
and there is little danger as to his future.
It was
Dm Ph nil i ps Brooks
Who said; "Show me what books a boy
reads, and I will read you his destiny. ’
I How important it Is, then, that your home
should be provided with books of the highest
character.
Fairy tales, and even, perhaps. "Buffalo
Bill ” stories, have their place as developer,
of a taste for reading, a sort of literary mill*,
as it were, but unless the boy soon shows a
preference for the stronger meat of practical
knowledge, history, travel, etc., you may ba
sure that he is mentally unsound, or that
there has been something radically wrong in
his education.
The Encyclopaedia Britannica has rightly
been termed “the concentrated essence of
the whole world’s wiadom." Let your boy
read its interesting pages, and he wiii soon
look with disdain upon " flashv ” literature.
We are continually underestimating a boy's
capacity for large ideas. There is nothing
»o attractive as truth. Give him the material
out of which to construct large ideas. Put
Britannica In the home, where he can consult
it continually, and as he attains manhood lia
will find no place in literary or professional
life to which he may not aspire.
Seize the present opportunity to provide a
proper library for your home. It requires an
