A large number of our people have taken advantage of the low rates to Kentucky to again visit the old home place. Among those who left the first of the week were E. L. Sandusky , George Grinstead , S. P. Gist and wife of Salem , Guy Green- wald , O. Kidder and wife and many others. Of course it is none of our business , and we arc not going to butt in , but if Sandy should be sitting on the wide porch of some old Ken tucky home , sheltered from the sun by luxuriant vines growing about the old colonial pillars , and the old black servant should handMiim a glass with the Irost gathered about the rim , with the fragrant mint peeping from its cool depths and the ice clinking pleasant ! } ' in the gold en liquid ; I say it is none of our business and we are not going to butt in , but we are not going to blame him. if under these circumstances he forgets for a moment that he at one lime ran for council in the third ward on the prohibition ticket , are you ? Lfe had been running about the court house yard all morn ing chasing butterflies. The sun was warm and the grass cool and the butterllies enticing , and he was having the time of his life. I don't know who owned him , or that he was owned at all. But everybody knew him and called him the base ball dog because he would run after a ball or a stick or anything else for that matter that promised attention and fun. And now he was lying in the .shade of the trees with his mouth open and his tongue out as he laughed and panted after his play. A great red automo bile came throbbing up the street bearing a gay fishing party. This was better than butterflies and the little "rat and tan' ' ran out leaping and barking in noisy anticipation of the sport. The driver couldn't help it it happened too quick ly. There was a yelp and the light of fun died out of the dog gie's eyes , lie whirled twice , ran to the curbing , laid down in the gutter and whined pitifully a time or two and laid still. The eyes were wide open but they saw no sunshine nor shade , nor would they again forever and forever. The world where little dogs chased sunshine and butterflies was no more ; there remained only the silence and the darkness. A crowd gath ered and gazed for the moment in curiosity * and one by one passed on , but the little base ball dog remained very still. It was only a dog , you say ? Yes , it was only a dog that loved to play in the sunlight and thought it great fun to chase butterflies on a spring day. It was a little dog that loved life and companionship and play and was afraid of the night and the darkness , "even as yon and I " Because no one seems inclined to take the initiative.Palls City will probably renig on a Fourth of July celebration. One reason that the city does not progress more is because of the lack of amusements. We have no ball team , no park , no tennis tournaments , in fact there is no public amusement of any char acter. If we had nothing more than a good band to give week ly concerts it would be a vast improvement. Up in the north end they have phonograph con certs that tend to rejieve the monotony. Dr. Mathers takes his high grade instrument or the front porch and plays for the benefit of the neighbors , all of whom sit on their front porches and pass the evenings very pleasantly because of t h thoughtfulness of the doctor. Our only dissipation is fishing and reading the base ball scores In the amusement line we are as dull as Hiawatha and no im mediate improvement can be hoped for. A Fourth of .July celebration would help , but no one will start anything. > * v At a congressional convention held in Beatrice years ago Dave Stephenson's candidate \v a s beaten and old Dave was as sore as a dog. Church Howe , who had done the beating , came along and began to taunt Dave on the defeat. Dave looked at him in disgust for a moment and then said , "Church Howe , you arc a ass. " 1 read the in- .erviews in the papers given out by Mr. and Mrs. Alice Koose- vclt , nee Longworth , just be- 'ore their departure for Europe. VIr. Alice Roosevelt said he was happy and was getting lappier ever } ' day. That mar ried life was too blissful for nortal man , and gushed and sputtered such stun"ad nauseum. Mrs. Alice Koosevelt was just is silly in her hot air. I know i hundred Falls City girls that lave too much sense to be guilty of such interviews. A nember of the Talt party to the LMi ill ! pines , of which part } ' Alice Roosevelt was one , told me a short time after the return that she was the silliest mortal on earth and that sh < > kept Taft busy squaring things she had done or said. A lady was visit ing in Falls City the other day who had just returned from Washington. She said that these stories and more were true. She and her husband are now in England doing things right. I wonder if she will five any more interviews on blissfulness of married lifey If she does the English people will doubtless think of what Dave Stephenson said to Church TJowe. The local telephone company is spending a large sum of money in making its lines thor oughly modern. What is called the Standard construction is now installed and the entire equipment is being put in per manent shape. While this will cost a large sum of money and will probably consume the entire year before being com pleted , it will when finished make the plant one of the best in the state. The labor is of that character that interferes somewhat with the service and some complaint is being made because thereof. Howeverthis is merely temporary and will soon be eliminated. When the improvements have all been made the service will be so much better that the patrons can afford the temporary incon venience. The outside compa nies are still delaying their advent into the city. We are not informed as to the cause of the delay , and hope and believe the lines will soon be built. It required too much labor and created too much enmity to secure the franchise for these companies to permit it to lapse without results. The wind is blowing down the street taking with it a cloud of dust. The grass is brown and dry and hot , and the breeze murmurs in the trees uneasily. It is the close of a summer's day with all the out deere thirsting for rain. Yet f know a little river way out where the mountains are. It is cool there and the water is gushing noisily over the pebbles and quarreling with the rocks that impede its progress to the sea. There is a deep dark pool in this little river just under the shadow of a boulder where the trout are. And Oh. such trout as they are ! Great speckled fellows that strike at a fly and set your reel to whirring and your heart to beating , giving you more of the /.est of life in a minute than you can get in a year looking at the cloud of dust blowing down the street , at the grass brown and dry and hot , and at the oul doors thirsting for rain at the close of a summer's day. It is fishing time and in my waking dreams I have been catching trout all day in a deep dark pool in a little river lying in the shadow of a boulder. Market Letter. Kansas City , Mo. , June 11 , 'Od.

Eastern nntl MldclU1 States Lnst Week in May Seventeen nnd Thir teen nml Thirtcen-Ycnr Vnrletloft Expected. Washington. The country Is lute year to have n vlHlt from not only the 17-year locustH , lint the lil-xcar variety as well. Tht announcement lu niiulu by the bureau of entor.iolocy of tint department ot agriculture. The locustH will begin to appear In some of the eastern nnd middle state ; ! about the last week of May. New York , however , according to I ho enlomolOK- Ical nharpH , will escape. The department hn.s sent out for dis tribution In the local Hies that will bo visited by the loctmtu a circular which contains u map Indicating tiio vurloim points where Hie locusIH will appear. Accompanying the circular la a reply card , on which may bo noted nny Information relating to llio locust HwarniH. The map rotors to the 17- year brood , and the circular given their distribution UH follows : "The rcKlon commences in south eastern Massachusetts , extends south across I/WB Island anil along the At lantic coast of New , l > rwy. Uolawaro and Maryland as far as Chcsapcnko bay , then up the Susquchanmi river to Pennsylvania to a point a lltllo below - low llarrlsburK. thence westward in Ohio , embracing the southwestern corner of the state and the northwest ern portion of Kentucky , and then up ward through southwestern Indiana , ending In central Illinois. II | j pos sible , also , that there IN an e.nilward extension of the region from Kon- t'JcUy Into southern West Vlr.ilnlu , nnd also In the counties of liuncombo and McDowell in North Carolina , but im IhuHO npponrnncan vcro not vcrilictl In 18712 , It I.s probable that they be long to the 111-year race. " The US-year locusta are not uo nu merous nor so widely distributed an the 17-year brood. The circular says they will appear In Alabama , Georgia , North Carolina and Tennes see. It Is stated that the periodical loctmt , when 11 appear. ! in great num bers , naturally CHURCH considerable * alarm and arouses fears for the f > afely of shade trees and orchards. The act ual damage , however , Is usually alight , except In the case ot newly planted orchards , and even here , by rlgoroun pruning hack after the locust his dis appeared , much of thci Injury caused by the egg punctures may tie ob viated. As a matter of piecautlon , however , the circular sav It might bo well not to locate , ow orchards this spring In recent ) ; cleared grounder or in proximity to v.'onils In any oC the regions whore the locust Is sched uled to appear. In many cases , how ever , the clearing up and cultivation of tint ground will have destroyed the larvae and it may not appear. The exact date of emergence ot the adults from the ground will vary somewhat with the season. The expe rience of many years , however , indi cates that most of the Individuals will come out during the itiat week in May. Very frequently the holes through which they will emerge will appear In the soil some weeks before the Insects actually come out. These holes are a little larger around than n lead pencil , and an > frequently so numerous us ab solutely to cover the surface of the ground. BULLET FOR FRENCH DUELS With Which Parisians Can Shoot at Each Other with Perfect Safety. f'arla. I'm lslu : > .s have been enabled by the invention of n hollow bullet to "train" for duels under the reallstlo condition of shooting at and being shot at by a living mun Instead of practicing at an Inanimate target which does not fire bad ; . Dr. iJcirllers i.s tin * invuuior uiul ha ban opened a club called "La Socleto I'Asiinut : ui I'lstolet. " Forty of thu best "shots" In Paris llrcd In pairs ut one another out * morning recently in the Jardln dc Paris. Of 272 shots llrcd U0i : hits were record ed. Two participants onch made full r.corcs and In the Una I round shot cacti other over the heart. While all wore gogglf.s and some padded blouses and gloves , one victor shot in his buttoned frock coat. The bullet Is harmless and can Ixi used several timcu , but the blow on thu ball of Die thumb of one of the contestants required surgical treat ment. The training IH of unique value for a real duel. Men who never missed a "dead" target were quite disconcertert by the raising of their opponent's ami to fire. Chance for Cheese makers. A revival of America's export tiade in cheese Is agitating the agricultural leaders of the United States.
