ALMOST FORGOTTEN.
Incidents of Every Day Life Which Very
Few People Stop to Think About on
Account of Their Llttlenes.
Tho reason wo didn't comtnont last
week on the gang that sits around our
back door watching tho construction of
tho now building, is bucauso tho gang

But this week wo want to express
our indignation very Indignantly at tho
party, parties, poison, inon or yellow
hnmmcts or whatover ihoy aro who put
in their cntiie limn hanging mound

to quit wmk and itibhoi neck with tho
lest. -This state of alTaiis is h:ud on
tho community from the fact that all
clashes if eitens aio icpu'soiitcd nt

should bo attending to thoir vmious

libbing up divorce suiK The grocers
should bu soiling up so they would
not hnvo to say "just out" to ovciy

to bo making sanapaiilla Tho typo,
ought to bo taking it sampatllla.
The city council ought to bo cancelling
the sidewalk t or i-iso give every man
tho pnvili'go of cuiiliscating any city
propel ly that ho may bump up against
especially sidewalks Tho medicino
vendeis ought to bo out with their lit
tlo red wagons. Tho bums ought to go
to bed while their wives or sweethearts
patch thbir pant". Tho clothing men
ought lo bo showing their mistoeiatlc
customcis now panK Tho bankers
otigtit to hump themselves when out
with drafts to colloct, as standing by
tho collnr ull day gives tho "draftees"
tho undeserved reputation of boing
slow. Tho bakers want to look out or
they'll got niortor in their dough. Tho
friends of them want to lookout or they
won't havu any dough. In fact all
tho stiffs in town will go broke If ihnv

to talk nbout possibilities and Ii. 'till
we get off of our original subject, the
new building. Wo overheard n con
versation botweon bystander in which
they all seomed curious in knowing
tho whys and wherefores. One bloko

to the progrcssivoness of the rjromntnro
thu8ly:-,lTwo groat big heads, sorao
time ago, joined, and made tho talk;
that thoy'd build unbuilding high as tho
clouds, and lay a stono sidewalk. So
tuoy hired a sane tor a dollar . Jnv
dug a collar seven foot deep; hauled
tho dirt on wagons to Fourth avonuo,
anuaumpea it out In tho street. TVhon
they tore tho old plank sidewalks up,
in mudholes wo had to 'woller,' 4till
the citizens got their Irish up, and
made an awful 'holler.' So tho council
met one Wednesday night, and had a
prolonged talk, and voted, every man
of 'em, to lay another walk. So thoy
laid a walk twelvo inches wide, and
had an understanding, that the plank
that led to Polnickv's aido ana caumd
semo waist expanding, should, when
the building was nnder way, bo taken
and put in tho stacks of the city's luni
ber yards, and used for lavmer new
crosswalks. But when the brick work
bad begun, the new gang worked like
mutes; and too the plank the rity
owns, and inado somo arreat lnno
schutes to wheel their harrows up and
down, and haul their brick and mortar;
and the city didn't got as jnuoh as a lit
