How many tickets have you
agreed to take for the next chau-
tnuqua ? Loosen up , don't be a
11gilt wad.
Paint out the bill board adver
tising at the park. Let's havi
something that isn't disfigured
by the everlasting commercial.
After the city buys the part
why not put it in the hands ol
a competent landscape gardcnei
in order that we may get started
right ?
The republicans will have tc
hustle or there won't be cnougl
candidates to go around. This
is a republican county and then
.should be at least one candidate
for every oflice before the repub
lican primary.
Kumor has it that Johnny Mar
tin recently made a trip to Wy
more seeking a candidate foi
Judge who would promise to ap
poiat him court reporter. W
have learned that Johnny failed ,
It might be well for the young
man to apply to the democratic
candidates , the source from whicli
he was last appointed.
Bill McCray has filed as a can
didate for supervisor on the dem
ocratic ticket. Considering Bill' !
past conduct it is not all at strangt
that most of those who sign hii
petition are republicans. Bil
has been owned by one of the re
yublican wings ever since he wai
elected and it was at the instano
of this clement of the republicat
partv that he has again beconn
a candidate.
Will Rose was a candidate fo
Clerk of the supreme court. No\
Willis a good fellow but he take
himself too seriously , Judg
Sedgwick recommended Harr
Lindsay of Pawnee who has don
more for the party in the stat
than any other one man. Wil
was mad and is still mad. H
started out to beat Sedgwick an
asks the party of the state t
ignore the splendid service of th
Judge during his first term i
order that he may get ever

How lonesome the man must
be who started out to spite the
chautauquu by staying away. In
the lantT'iaKe ' of Mr. Gerhart he
has an ititfrowinrr grudge against
himself , It is fortunate thatlTalls
City has but one of his kind.
The great tide that has set infer
for Judge Sedgwick and fair
play has practically eliminated
all other candidates. The splen
did service the Judge has given
the people of the state during
liis first term has created a uni
versal desire for him to continue
in his present position. The re
publican party of the state will
not lend itself to a disappointed
oflice seeker to the people and be
unfair to a deserving man.
Some comment has been created
by the statement recently made
in this paper that we were con
templating increasing our sub
scription price to $1.50 per year.
When a man is running a busi
ness institution it is well to as
certain just where the leaks arc
and what may bo done to put the
business on a paying business.
By careful investigation we have
learned that one cannot print a
paper such as the Tribune for a
dollar a year and pay expenses.
There arc but five papers in the
state that are now charging but
a dollar a year and not one ol
these prints the home matter that
we do. The Brown County
World has increased its price tc
$2.00 per year and it is wortli
every cent of it it. We pay IOC
percent more for our supplies
than we did when the papei
started. We pay fifty per cenl
more for labor. Our paper bill
has doubled in the last year. Ir
I fact everything we buy has in
creased in price so much that n
'dollar ' a year does not pay the
actual expenses of getting out the
paper. You may expect thai
about January 1st we will be com
pelled to increase the price of the
paper to a living sum. If yet
are not in favor of the live ant
let live policy we expect you te
stop your paper. On the othei
hand it you believe the laborei
is worthy of his hire we hope tc
have you continue on our books

TONS OF SOOT.
A scientific investigator in Gin
cinnati has been trying to arrive ai
a definite idea of the amount of sool
deposited in the city in the ccrarsi
of a year. One of his tests was tc
place two buckets , three-fourths
filled with water on 11 roofs in dif
ferent parts of the city. At th <
end of three months a careful annly
sis of the contents of the buckets
, to ascertain the amount of carbo
naceous matter was made. The re
suit is that in the dovm town arct
ho falling soot amounts to 54 ]
tons a month , or 18 tons daily. Or
a square mile of the city the see
deposit is 171 tons a month , 01
343,728 pounds , an average of scv
cral pounds to each inhabitant. Ii
| one of the suburbs the soot in tbi
bucket was 464 grams to the squar <
foot for a period of 30 days. Fo ]
the same time the deposit at a cen
tral point in the city was 22t55 (
grams to the square foot.
RELIC OF OLD ROME ,
Near the Lucrine lake , to thi
north of Baiae , Italy , whcro the vil
las of Romans of imperial timci
crowded each other to the water i
edge , and where , in consequence , t (
this day the ground is full of arch
acological treasures , a very fine mo
saie has just been discovered. L
jform it is a parallelogram , measur
[ ing about five and n half yards b ;
nearly ten yards. The piece repre
sents a hunting scene in whicl
'there are many wild beasts and scv
ral hunters , the favorite subjec
jfor largo mosaics in those days. I
has been bought for $1,500 by th
ministry of public works for th
decoration of the great monumen
, of Victor Emmanuel in Borne
.which is slowly taking form , ant
will erenhially dominate all oil

M. JOJS FOR PLAl .
St. Petersburg Postofficc Serv.-j At
tractive , dut Not Efficient.
The Slovo of St. Petersburg receul-
ly naked Its readers : "Have you ever
noticed that the ludy assistants In
the general post office nt St. Peters
burg nro nlmost without exception
good looking ? " Most people might
consider this a mere coincidence , but
that this Is not the cnso is shown by
Miss Potrowa , who writes to the news
paper to tell how two frlonds of hors
recently applied for clerkships In the
general post office. After a time , the
application papers were returned with
a formal note to the effect that at
present there wore no vacancies. The
returned documents , however , re
vealed marginal notes which had been
Imperfectly obliterated vrlth rubber.
Ono read : "She looks to bo over 30 ,
Is small , plain and flabby. " On th
other paper In microscopical charac
ters were the words : "Old maid ,
tall , bony. " The BloYO asks what
might have been the marginal notes
on the papers of successful candidates
and who are responsible for them. It
adds that the selection of youth and
beauty for this branch of the public
service has by no means Improved the
unsatisfactory condition of the gen
eral post office.
KNEW BETTER THAN THAT.
City Youth Could Believe Much but
There Was a Limit.
The younger son of a well-known
politician of Chicago has spent pretty
much all of his life in the big city by
the lake , and , consequently , knows lit
tle of country ways and things. Not
long ago he visited a man he had met
In Chicago , and who maintains a big
farm near Cairo , whither he had In
sisted the youngster come for a
lengthy stay. One day the Chicago
youth was wandering about the farm ,
closely examining the top , ends and
sides of a certain trim , well-made ob
ject fenced round In the paddock.
"What are you searching for , Jimmy ? "
asked the owner of the place , with a
quizzical smile "Where are the doors
and windows ? " asked Jimmy. "Doors
and windows ! Why , Jimmy , that's a
haystack. "Look here , old man , " ex
claimed Jimmy ; "I may be only a
green person from the city , but you
can't bluff mo that way. Hay doesn't
grow In lumps like that ! " Harper's
Weekly.
Real Forbidden Fruit.
In some countries there grows a
kind of fruit belonging to the shad
dock family and which Is commonly
called "forbidden fruit. " It Is similar
to grape fruit , but Is larger and the In
side Is somewhat coarser than the de
licious acid delicacy of which wo arose
so fond. The name forbidden fruit
was given on account of three dark
brown stains , like finger marks , which
Invariably show on this variety of the
shaddock. The stains are close to
gether on one side and f.ro believed to
bo the marks of Eve's fingers left aa
a brand on the apple whoso eating
caused so much trouble In the world.
Forbidden fruit is much llkud by people
ple who are able to get It fresh , but
so far It has not buon shipped abroad
as extensively as its cousin , the grape
fruit and shaddock.
Great Land Owner.
The Duke of Northumberland 13 the
largest land owner In England. His
estates stretch almost from sea to sea ,
and he can ride 100 miles and not
once leave his own domain. In ap
pearance ho Is tall and thin , with red
dish hair and flowing whiskers. Ho
Is old-fashioned in manner , and shows
many of the attributes of a grand
seigneur. And he has all the pride
of the Percys and keeps up to the full
their Olympian traditions. Ho was
once heard to say : "You will have to
go a long way back In our record to
find a Percy who was either Idle or a
spendthrift , " In religion ho Is an Irv-
ingite. like his father , and ho has
converted the duchess to his own be
lief.
Fritz on the Dachshund.
Little Fritz was told to write an es
say on his favorite dog and he wrote
the following on the dachshund : "Der
dachshund vas a German dog dot
looks like a bologna sausage mlt legs.
Vonco fader had a dachshund dot vos
so long ven ut ran arount der block
ut bad to hold up its head to keep
from running over uts hind legs. Der
dachshund vas an obedient dog , but
ven you call him to como quick ho Is
always long. Ho can't help ut ho
vas born dot vay. Above all , dor
dachshund ves dor only member uf
der dog's family whose breath cornea
InMong bants. AH der rest cames In
short bants. Hurrah for der dach
shund ! "
They Moved Down to Boston.
Mrs. II. Q. Wells and other grown
ups have had their merry gibes at Boston -
ton , but hero is a llttlo miss whoso
unconscious Irony puts their best ef
forts to shame. "Why , " asked Doro
thy the other night on going to bed ;
"why can't we see fairies ? " "Bo-
cause they do not live In the fields
and woods here any more , " replied
her nurse. "Where are they , then
in heaven ? " "Perhaps so. " "Oh , I
know , " said Dorothy after a moment
of silent thought. "Tho angels got
tired of their old mansions In the
skies , so they let the fairies have them
and moved to Boston. " Judgo.
