NO POLICE; NO POSTOFFICE. No Mail and Not a Stamp Sold For Five Weeks In Busy Town (New York World.) Joseph Barney, postmaster of Irons-port, a village of 700 inhabitants, several miles east of here, today closed his office. He said he had not sold a single stamp in five weeks nor received any incoming or outgoing mail. The people explain that they have no friends to write to and that they don't receive any mail. There has not been an idle man in Ironsport since.

1909. The mines are running full time and every miner in town owns his own home. Three weeks ago the entire police department was discharged. The chief of police declares that not one arrest has been made within the last six months and that it is a waste of the taxpayers' money to keep up a police department. A recent census showed that the population is composed of 637 Irishmen, 1 Welshman and 52 Germans.

Ironsport has yet to have its first taste of scandal. Hard Requirements. (Cleveland Plain Dealer.) There was a queer old specimen of humanity brought to the Cuyahoga county jail. He had been convicted of the crime- of cruelty to animals and there was no doubt in anybody's mind that he richly deserved the penalty inflicted. It is the custom to examine prisoners, however, before they are assigned to their cells.

When this old reprobate was brought up' the interrogation went thus. "What is your name?" "Budd Dobbs." "What is your age?" "Sixty-eight." "What is your religion?" "Great snakes! Does a "man hafter git religion before they'll let him inter jail in this county?" Tact sometimes consists of knowing enough not to know too much. Many a fellow with a big bank account is of not much account otherwise. Catarrh Gone WOMEN'S SKIRTS $10.00 VALUE $5.98 Handsome qualities of all the materials.

(New York Sun.) When William O'Donnell, 22 years old, and his brother, John, a year younger, were arraigned for sentence Judge O'Sullivan, in general sessions, yesterday, Mr. Kimball, the probation officer, told the court that the young men anxious that one of them should escape a prison sentence so that their mother would not be deprived oT her- suppor. They had pleaded guilty to assault. They live at 277 East One Hundred and Forty-eightth street. It was a matter of no moment to them, Mr.

Kimball said, which went to prison, but one of them must have his liberty. He added that John's employer was willing to take him back. As there was work waiting for him sen- tence was suspended on John. When William learned that his brother was to be released to take care of their mother he grasped his hand and the two brothers stood side by side while Judge O'Sullivan complimented them on their devotion to their mother and to each other. He then sentenced William to the Elmi-ra reformatory.

After a hearty handshake William was led back across the Bridge of Sighs and John left the court to tell his mother the Dog's Appendix is Cut Out.

I won some, money on the larve." PATTERNS. Bluffed It Out. (Chicago. Evening Post.) The stories of the embarrassment of unsophisticated diners when-faced by highly sophisticated menu cards are endless and usually amusing. A man whose career had confined his knowledge of things to eat to such standard: products as ham and eggs and pork and beans found himself among a company who ordered intelligently from an extensive bill of fare.

It contained so many classified dishes as to make a fair-sized book, the pages of which he pawed aimlessly and in dismay. The waiter, who needed oniy his order to go to the kitchen, was standing at one side deferentially, with his order slip and pencil in hand. The delay was noticeable and irritating to the unskilled diner and finally he pointed blindly to the middle of a page with his finger. "Give me some of that," he said. The waiter looked over his shoulder and "That's mayonnaise dressing, sir." "I know it.

I can read." "But" apologetically "what will 3'ou have it on, sir!" "On a plate, you bonehead! Do you feed your customer in troughs here?"
