While going through the hospital with one of the regimental surgeons, he observed that the aur- geou and some of the Confederate wounded were very friendly to each other, and in several instances the aurgeon gave money to the prisoner. Young McKiuley asked the surgeon if he knew these prisoners and waa informed that they were brother Masons. The young soldier was so favorably impressed by the friendly feeling existing between the Confederate and Union Masons that he expressed a desire to join the Order.

The London Enterprise says: "Last Thursday evening Miss Frances Baker, who for the aeveral yeara has been the efficient principal of the London high school, tendered her resignation to the secretary of the School Board, to take effect at the close of thia week.

Her departure will be regretted by all who have the success of the school at heart and especially since it is known she is in such poor health." A later notice, taken from the Nickle-Plate, say a that Miaa Baker haa been quite ill and unable to take charge of her classes. Her resignation ia before the Board and will be acted on Thursday night. It ia Mias Baker's intention, if her health will permit, to come to her home in Xeiiia on Saturday, to remain.

Thomas Mitchell, aged 22, of Cedarville, was up before Mayor Linkhart this morning on the charge of disorderly conduct.

The power of woman in politics was demonstrated in a rather unexpected way in the recent Republican primary election in Kansas City, where B. L. Short was a candidate for nomination as mayor. It seems that for some twelve years, Mr. Short had been in the lovemaking business and had in that short time succeeded in convincing a young lady that he loved her and was about to marry her.

But afe the last moment, suddenly and without previous intimation of what he was about to do, he married another woman. The other young woman was heart-broken and in her chagrin, told her story to some of hor friends, who thereupon presented it to Mr. Short's opponents as a bit of cam- paigu ammunition. It was eagerly seized upon and used with great effect, not less than 120 of the rejected lady's friends voting solidly against Short. As Short fell only 85 votes short of securing the nomination he does not have to reason long to arrive at the conclusion that, had he not jilted the girl he courted for 12 years, he would not have been disappointed in his ambition to be mayor, or at least to be the candidate of his party for that honor.
