If ou crush a raw vkh In the too of your rubber, don't sny n word, for It's the first of April nnd everything rocs. Thin Is the dny when fat purses i?row on wirings nnd float away from the man with tho boardltiR-houso reach.

Tonight when you crawl Into a bed filled with rlco and pinpoints don't say anything that Is out of harmony with tho Lenten season. Just shut your eyes and think prayerfully of inn millions of people who havo gono against tho April fool game slnco tho tlmo of Adam.

Oreat caro should bo exercised In an swering telephones on April Pool's day. When a young woman calls you up to test the 'phono and asks you to speak in .1 whisper at a dlstanco of four feet from tho lefthaud corner of the receiver, be iilierflcnt., ou,.you may disappoint some body. And when sho asks you to stand on your head and say "I love you" In a falsetto volco you must do it. The tele phone company may have to go out of busi ness If the wires aren't properly tested. In caso anything ruffles your temper so badly that profanity must be used on some body, turn your effusions looso on tho man Ihut Invented April Fool's day. It Is not likely that you will cause any near relative to turn over In his grave, for April Fool's day has been celebrated since tho days of ancient Home. Tho origin of All Fools' day is not known. Cacsur probably found cocklo burrs In his sandals many a time oit tho 1st of April. IIott the Hindoos Do, Tho feast of Hull, celebrated by Iho Hindoos, terminates on All Fools' day mid Is observed In much tho same fashion as tho American April Fools' day. Today tho llrnhmln priests come out of their shells and Join In a general merrymaking. Persons aro sent with messages to people who nro sure to bo away from home and many other Impostures aro Indulged In, In England April fooling has been com mon since tho time of Sir HIehard Steele (1C71-1729). Tho Spectator is full of refer ences to tricks played on All Fools' day. In Franco tho day was universally ob served at an earlier dato than In England. A man who Is the butt of a Joko In England Is n gawk. In Franco thu victim of n Joke ts called an April fish, but In tho United Slates he is a plain sucker. One of tho commonest April fool Jokes In England Is to send a letter by a dupe, who s instructed to wait for an answer. The answer Is n second uoto to a third person, saying: "It Is the 1st of April. Send the fool nnnther mile." The dupo Is kept going until ho tires ot tho endless chain or Is told of the Joke. Dean Swift, tho famous author of "GMI-J liver a Travels," invented tho biggest April fool hoax that wab over circulated In Eng land. He circulated the report that n man who had been hanged on March .11 whs re suscitated tho next day by a friend. The story gained wldo circulation nnd crested much excitement before the public realized that It had been duped. Have You Been 111? If very sick, you had a doctor. That's right. We be lieve in doctors. They are among our best friends. Now that you are recover ing, don't you think that a - bottle or two of Ayer's Sarsa parilla would do you great good? Askyour doctor about it and do just as he says. We believe he will tell you ' that this blood-purifying and nerve-strengthening medicine is just what you need. It will certainly take out all the impurities in your blood, caused by your sickness, and will make you feel better in everyway. n.Mtntu. aimuuuu. ' J. C. JLYKtt CO., Umell, Mm. 0 m South Omaha News I Tomorrow will he election day nnd as only one tax commissioner nnd three mem bers of tho Hoard of Education are to bo elected It I3 thought the result wilt be known early, probably not later than 10 P. m.

Asldo from the election of three members of the Hoard of Education Uttlo Interest seems to be taken In tho election. Ncnrly everyone concedes tho election of Uennctt ns tax commissioner and therefore tho At tention of voters Is centered on the other candidates. Mr. llonnett Is generally con sidered the right man for tho place and It Is figured that ho wilt poll the highest vote of any candidate on the ticket. Thoso who hnve been watching tho situ ation clocly assert that there Is 110 doubt but the entire republican school board tic ket will bo elected. Mead, Oilmen and Hlch arc all well and favorably known and their election will mean that the manage ment of school district affairs will bo In tho hands of republicans and business men of staudlng. As tho women will bo per mitted to votu without teglsterliig It Is ex peeled Jhls class of vole will be large. Tho republicans will havo plenty of carriages and nn effort will bo mado to get out a heavy vote, especially for school directors. Republican tallies will bo tonight In Kclls' hall, Twenty-fourth and N streets; Koutsky's hall, Twentieth nnd Q streets; Wnynu building, Twenty-sixth aud I' streets; Evans' hall, Twenty-eighth and It streets, and nt Hex hall, Thirty-third nnd I. streets. Thcso rallies will be presided over by woll known local republicans and can didates will be expected to sneak In each of .tho halls mentioned. Comment 011 llriinrtl'N Cnml Idnr Editor Dennett of the South Omaha Dally Sun has this to say of W. A. Ilcnnett, re publican candidate for tax commissioner: 'There nre no republican bolters on Hen nolt'e nomination. While thero arc repub licans who do not like tho idea of thu parly going into a packing house to pick out an assessor, they know that Mr. Ilcn nett la too honest and too Independent to permit his work ns assessor to be In fluenced by tho corporations. Dennett Is under no obligations to tho packers. Ho docs his wqrk nnd cams his salary, Just as any other man, nnd besides -he has wealth enough to render him entirely In different to the wishes of his employers In matters pertaining to the public welfare. Ills laes aro henvy enough to show him that the corporations aro now getting oft entirely too lightly, and knowing this Ilcn nett is Just the kind of a man to go ahead and fix the nssessinent properly nnd with Justice In view, for In public life he has always tried to do what was right, regard less of, criticism." Xo Council Mrt'tliiK. While tho city council Is billed for a meeting tonight It was reported 0:1 tho streets yesterday that a few members would meet and adjourn until Wednesday evening. As tonight la tho last of the local cam paign tho councllmen nnttirally want to at tend somo of the numerous rallies. Should tho council meet Wednesday evening It Is thought an ordlnanco will be Introduced re disricting tho city Into six wards, When this Is passed It will then devolve upon Mayor Kelly Jo appoint two members of the council. From tho tlmo the city Is redls trlctcd tho representation In the council will bo six Instead of eight, ns nt preseut. In speaking of making these appointments Mayor Kelly said a day or two ago that ho had not considered the matter seriously nnd rnthty dreaded tho time when he would bo called upon to do so. Work for Tn (.'oniinlKxIoiii'r. In defining tho duties of the tax com missioner tho chailor provides that the commissioner shall devoto all of hie tlmo to the city and that his duties, ns well ns salary, are to bo regulated by ordinance. As It will take only about four months In the year for tho commissioner to do his woik It has been suggested by some mem bers of the council that the commissioner put In his time assisting In the city treas urer's office. In this connection a mem ber of the city government said yesterday ho would consider It a good move to havo the tax commissioner devote nt least a share of his time to the collection of per Bonn! taxes. It this Is done the receipts of the office can be greatly Increased aud without any particular expense to the city. rilxurrnlil I.otv Mnn. Politicians have It figured out that Fitz gerald, democratic candidate for tax com missioner, will bo low man In tho three cornered fight tomorrow. It is asserted that members of the labor unions will sup port Shields aud that this will detract largely from tho vote of Fitzgerald,. Many of the laboring men nro displeased at the nctlon of Fitzgerald In , rcmonstrntlns against tho placing of Shields' name on tho ticket, nnd for this reason they will voto for Shields with n vlow to making Flt7gerald the low man on the ticket.

PRICE MUST BE REASONABLE, HOWEVER Will I, ft I'iiiiiIm Pile I l In the Vault Hit I lice i h nn Accede to Any i:iirliHunl Demit iidx. WASHINGTON, March 31. Secretary Oage was questioned today as to his prob able action with respect to tho cash accu mulations In the treasury, and particularly as to whether he contemplated buying bonds for tho sinking fund. . "The country would like to know," it was stated to tho secretory, "whether tho accumulation of money In the treasury which seems to be going on will not operato to the prejudlco of general business ulfalis. Your estimate ts Hint there will be a sur plus of recolpts over expenditures for tho fiscal year ending Juno SO next of nbout $S0,O0O,0fO. Your statement published yes terday shous that some $40,000,000 of that sum nlrendy has been realized. This would Indlcnto flint within tho next three months 110,000,000 more of cash will bo 'gathered Into tho treasury from the general money market " Tho Sccictnry The estlmutcs you spe.tk of wero mado before the last session of congress nnd havo been modified by events nnd by congressional nctlon. It Is not now contemplated that tho year's surplus will bo over $60,000,000. A falling off In re ceipts or Inrger disbursements than have been estimated for may also further modify the effect to which you point. Question Well, Mr. Secretary, oven then It seems that the cash holding of thu ticasury will bo Increased by some $20,000,- 000 between now uud Juno 30. Aro you willing to state whether you would or could do anything to retlevo general affairs should they bo adversely affected by the tleup ot money In tho trensuiy? Two I'ohhIIiIp Method. The Secretary There nre only two meth ods open to get surplus funds 'out of tho treasury vnults. Ono Is to Increase treas ury deposits In tho national bank de positories; tho other Is to buy ifulted Stntes bonds. Tho latter Is moro con sistent with government Interests than tho former, since in buying bonds interest on the public debt Is by so much stopped. Thu dopartment, however, would not feel Justified In buying bonds other than thoso which will mature nnd become subject to payment within the next seven years, At a 'proper price It would no doubt bo will ing to buy theso nnd thus relievo tho treasury from n surplus which, ns you a.siime, might, under somo conditions, bo prejudicial to general business aflalrs. At tho present quoted rates for tho short bonds, I do not think tho secretary would bo -Justified In buying bonds. The Cs at tho price yield nn Investment return of only t.03 per cent; tho short Is, l.fit per cent; the 3 per cents of 190S, 1.34 per cent, while tho now 2 per rents, nt their present price, yield a higher Investment roturn, 1.73 per cent. Now It Is well known nnd au acknowledged fact lhata long-time government bond, everything else being equal, 1 worth relatively moro than a short-time bond. The present disparity to the contrary, nevertheless, is illogical If not artificial, nnd nt their present prlco tho secretary will not buy them. 'Not (0 Ineiensp llnnk l)eMmlt. Question As an alternative would you not Increase the deposit of publlo moneys with the banks? Tho Secretory No, that would aggravate, in somo particulars, the situation to which 1 have Just referred. To qualify as deposi tories the banks would have to buy and de posit bonds, Tho effect would ho to set up a competition, by tho aid of the government, against tho government in tho purchase, of securities already abnormally high. We arc now advancing toward the period ot the year when there Is apt to be a money ple thora Instead of a money scarcity, so I do not sco that It will do any particular harm If money accumulates In the treasury. The reduction In taxation will, whon It becomes operative, partially or wholly cure tho pres. ont tendency toward a congestion In tho treasury. To put the matter In n nutshell: If It bn n choice between buying bonds at an artificial prlco and letting funds accumu late In tho treasury, tho latter will occur, nor will the department advcrtlso for offer ings of bonds. To do so, I am satisfied, would be fruitless In results, if, however, the department t'fin from tlmo to tlmo buy the short bonds at nn Investment rato real izable to tho Investor who buys tho new 2 per cents, It will not hestliste to do so, should the present market price for the uow 2s remain about on the present basis.
