Dry or Wet?
The political right or wrong,
la apt to get the knife,
Who has convictions good and strong
And dares to risk his life
By resolutely standing pat,
Republican or democrat.
The man who stands up bold for
booze.
Aa Jimmy Dahlman stood,
la very surely doomed to lose
It Jim had sawed more wood
And saved his breath to cool his soup,
He might have registered a scoop.
The Judge was on the ragged edge
' Of going middling dry.
But now he's either pot to hedge
Or suffer by and by.
High on the fence the judge is sot,
With one Bide dry and one side not.
Of course I wish hiin all success,
Anil he shall have my vote;
Dut 1 can picture the distress
Of being in his boat,
Where one must be too wet to stand,
And not quite dry enough to land.
Doc Blxby In Lincoln Journal.
A Thinner Tinner.
Orlando Pratt, the Blanktown tin
ner, was once Quito fat, but now is
thinner. He climbed a roof to mend
a gutter. Some solder few and made
him sputter. It happened that some
naughty boyB were passing by; they
heard the noise and stood there
Bhouting with delight, nor pitied
poor Orlando'B plight.
A crowd soon gathered in the
street and lingered there to Bee the
treat. Now down the ladder in great
haste, Orlando slides no time doth
waste, in starting at his swiftest pace
to catch the imps who madly race,
far past the limits of the town,
through meadow land and pastures
brown. O'eh leaping logs and wad
ing bogs, disturbing frogs and polly
woga; Orlando on revenge intent
keeps going till hi'a fairly spent. He
ran so long, he missed hia dinner, yet
failed to nab a single sinner. In one
way .though, he proved a winner
he shrunk into a thinner tinner.

The Death Blow
The Mortgage has a way of hanging on Cyclones or Files
don't disturb it even death itself only makes it more insist

"Tired" lUilnmd Men
One of the moist drawing attrac
tions at the Wortham Carnival was
the "Days of '49." or "Pikes Peak."
with "22 eirls. etc." The fame of
thin attraction spread far and wide,
even among the railroad men who af
ter working the limit and who, com
ing in from their runs tired and be
mimed, ahould have gone to their
Jowny beds. Two well known rail
road "cons," known to the craft as
Mi.-Koui I Tom" and "Fighting Bob",
came in from a trip and as they walk
ed up the street they bewailed their
fate as hard-working and sleeplexK
laborers and regaled each other with
visions of sweet dreamless slep. A -riving
at the parting corner near the
court house they bid each other fare
well and made a bet that each would
be in slumberland first. But here,
dear reader, enters the evil one, the
Dr. Jeykell and Mr. Hyde part of the
story. Missouri Tom was the fas' est
walker and he arrived on the brene
first. When Fighting Bob arrived
through the portals of Pikes i'eak
what did he behold but the ast ui fl
ing bUhl of his supposed to b sleep
ing co i rade ,in the arms of "Mor
pheus" swiftly gilding to the strains
of the "Hot Dog Hag." "Ah," c -led
Fighting Bob, "and what are you do
ing here, brave one, who was suit
posed to be asleep in bed?' The
answer came quick, in accents bold
and brave, "And tell me, dear Bob,
why you are here awatchiirt me."
And there they stayed, say Miobh who
know, until the wise call boy remind
ed them that it "was time to again
take up the grind.
the great dreary house, rocking the
cradle of her sleeping babe with one
foot and wiping away her tears with
the other."
Wanted nn American Name
A somewhat unpatriotic little son
of Italy, twelve years old, came to
his teacher in the public school and
asked if he could not have his name
changed.
"Why do you want to change your
name," the teacher asked.
"I want to be an American. I live
in America now."
"What American name would you
like to have?"
"I have it here," he said, banding
the teacher a dirty scrap of paper on
which was written "Patrick Dennis
McCarty." Chicago News.
The phone tintinnabulated. "Is
this the office of the Daily Squawk?"
a voice asked. "It Is." "Well,
then, I want you to insert thla death
notice: 'Colonel Jones has gone to
rest,' in an appropriate place." The
next morning it read: "Colonel Jones
has gone to rest in an appropriate
place."
