THb F-ALLS CITY TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , FEBRUARY 23 , 1906 Now and Then. Charlie Abbey is doing nicely and has been removed from the hospital to his home. Falls City has a grand old man of 70 who beats the game of sausage and buckwheat cakes for breakfast every morning. His son , with whom he lives and who makes a breakfast out of toasted crackers and grape nuts , says the old man is an ostrich. * + A good story is told of a local girl whose father is a grouchy old fellow in love with the good old times and out of sorts with everything young. The girl has a fellow and the old man kicked. "Why don't you marry some steady , sober man of fifty who is well settled , " asked the father. " 1 believe , " ' replied the girl , "that I would rather have two of twenty-five if its j'ltst lite same lu you. " ' * * The dinner by the ladies of the Shakespeare club to their friends last Tuesday evening was as dainty and tasteful as one could wish , it didn't suit the husband of one of the members however , as he said very audibly as the meat course was being discussed , "I'd rather have backbone and kraut a dang site. " * * This ice proposition is becom ing serious. George Gulp wears a worried look and Charlie Stanton - ton is getting as thin as a rail fro.ni worry. Dr. Yutscy has done his best and started things to ward the bottom of the thermom eter several times , but so far there is nothing doing towards an ice crop. * . * * If the lady that baked the bread baked at the Methodist exchange last week should ever be in search of employment , she can learn something to her ad vantage by communicating with this office. * The world looked like a child's idea of Heaven last Saturday morning with the trees and shrubbery cloaked and swathed in snow. It looked like a worn an's idea of hell a few hours after the sun had got in his work and the walks and crossings were cloaked and swathed in mud. * Ed Howe says if you want to go to the Orient go to Honolulu but no further as it will be but i repetition. He advises all of hi friends to forget all ideas of a trip around the world. The truth is , Howe is homesick. * * * Ned Towle nearly broke up whist party the other evening talking about the division. What he doesn't know about probabili ties and possibilities isn't worth knowing , and his enthusiasm ih contagious . * * Ths Tribune desires good cor respondents in every part of the county. If you would like to see items from your locality in the paper we would be glad to hear from you that we may perfect arrangements to the mutual ad vantage of both. We want this paper to be a county paper and are willing to make great sacri fices to accomplish this end. . * * The winter of 1900 is one that old timers will be talking of for many years to come. In the language of a distinguished citi zen "it is the mildest winter I have ever seen and I've seen a hundred of them. " 4. * * Are you reading "The Spend ers" the continued storin The Tribune ? It is becoming very interesting and will increase in interest with each succeeding chapter. If you have not beer reading it look back over yourolc papers or read the synopsis am' ida start this week. You will miss r treat if you fail to read the story * * * The local company has beet saying that the proposition sub P h initial b\ them \v.v < to most of tlti * subscribers of tin- mutual t telephone companies but 11 that their committees were mis- represcntinu . the wishes of the j subscribers by refusing anything but I a toll station. It may throw some light on this phase of the subject to state that the Preston company in annual session last week decided by a vote of15 to 3 to decline the Falls City proposi lion and again appeal to the citi zens of Falls City for a toll station. It seems to a man up a tree that the people of Falls City might be able to settle their difiii- culties without interference on the part of the local company. Who owns the streets of Falls City , anyway ? Why should our highways be used for personal profit and in a way that creates a feeling among the farmers so an tagotfistic to our merchants that open letters are being published from such men as Will Crush calling uioti telephone subscrib ers to boycott our town. This is not a personal matter with The Tribune. It won't mean a cent to us whatever the termination of the controversy is. It is a per sonal matter to the merchants of the city , it is dollars and cents to them. We feel that every candi date for Mayor and council this sprang should be compelled to de clare himself one way or the other on a question of such im portance. n # * Alice and Nick are married and the bride is Alice in wonderland no longer. The Sunday papers were filled with glowing accounts of the happy bride the sun shone on. A detailed account of the presents was given with the price mark attached to each. We don't know what that thing was the President of France gave , but it cost $50,000 , and Cuba' : present cost $25,000. The nation : of the world laugh at the com mercialism of America and laugl justly at that- The idea of turn ing the wedding of the President's daughter into a matter of dollars and cents. The idea of looking gift horse in the mouth and put ting the price mark on the pres ents of nations , rulers and tricnds Be it said to the credit of King Edward nobody knows the char acter of his present nor its cost and no right minded man cares The next thing we know they will be giving the cost of grave clothes , the casket and the How ers. What are we coming to anyway that we cannot read o the wedding of the President' * daughter without the nauseating details of the cost of wedding presents , that we cannot say "w hope you will be very , very happy my dear , " without evidencing our good wishes in dollars and cents ? # * The death of Con Reagan re moved one of Falls City's oldest oldest and most respected citi zens. There was a good deal of a man about Con. He was al ways cheerful and happy. His heart was full of sympathy for the wrongs and griefs of his friends. lie was always happy in their happiness. Everybody liked him because he liked every body. He never intentionally hurt a fellow man. He has gone to his reward. Peace to his ashes. * * * . Ed King , Eph Sandusky , Fred Kellar and Hob Cain are all equally elated because of the stub trains. The service will permit them to spend much more of their time at home where for merly the ) ' put in most of their time in other places or in making night rides to get back to theii own firesides.
