The "polnon uoedlo" that liae been so much tulked about during the paat (ew months as the means, or one of the means used by white slavers to capture their fair victims, has fallen into disgrace. Most people of Intel ligence looked upon the stories as dreams, and now comes the Journal of the American Medical Association of Chicago, and says: "Tho poison needle alleged to have been used by while slavers in many parts of the country Is a myth. In the minds of physicluus and nurses, who see every day the administra tion of anesthetics, such stories ex cite mirth." The decision of Judge Cleeton nullifying the new tax law Is u boon to many tnxpayers, and it is only to be regretted that it came after so many had paid their taxes In full. There Is no excuse for a law requir ing nil the money for public expenses, state, county and city, to he paid In early in the year, and all In a lump, much of It to lie unused for months. The payment comes, too, at a time of year when money Is always scarcest and hnrdest to get. Salem Journal. Good roads work In New York proves to havo been a "good thing" for the politicians. The highway commission, according to James W. Osborne, Governor Glynn's special commissioner, left the maintenance and repair work to Charles F. Foley, the first deputy, whom Mr. Osborne finds to have been "totally unfit for the work." The men whom he em ployed to inspect work under main tenance contracts were barbers, tail ors, prizefighters, barteuders, bank ers, bakers anything but road build ers. . It is surprising that the loss on maintenance and repair work In 1912 was only fl,U00,UUU. The grafters were quite moderate. Ex. In tbe News and Out of (he Ordinary WEST PAYS OM DKHT.

Kchneffer. cornetist. of Mount Pi-mi, Pn who for sixteen suc cessive St. Patrick's days played over the grave of Thomas Iltiunnboe In the Kant Reading cemetery In fulfillment of a promise made to the hite Ilnnna hue on his deathbed. Is sorrowing be muse sickness this year mnde him give nil hope of ever again fuHHIIng bis promise. In life l most everybody In Heading mid hundreds throughout ttie county knew genial Tom Hnnimhoe. Me died seventeen years ago. One of bin closest friends was Mr. RrhaefTer, tbe to met 1st and band mas ter. Shortly before Ilaiinahoe's dentil occurred he made mi agreement with (be cornetist that In tbe event of Hehncffer's death ho -ould attend bis funernl and on each St. Patrick's day nt midnight would Blng tho "I,nss of (Jnlway" and "Nearer, My God, to Tbeo" owr Scbaeffer's grave. Tho agreement was drawn up In writing and signed, nnd at tbe bottom Mr, Schncffer wrote: "And In case Thomas C. Ilannnhoo dies before I do I faithfully promise to attend his funeral and will play tbe same pieces over or near his grave at midnight on St. Patrick's day." Two days before Ilannnhoe's deatti he summoned SchacfTcr to bis bedside and asked blui If he remembered his promise. Scbaeffer told tbe sick man that be did and assured him that It would be faithfully kept. Cornetist HehaefTcr on every St. Pat rick's night ever since has played tbe two tunes over the Ilannnboe grave, surrounded by n host of friends of both.

NOTICE OF AXNIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS OF KOSE1JI KG . 111 I1JIG TION. HOMES ASSOCU A COUNTY FAIR FRECEDENT. Men Will Pi s on the Merits of Con testantc' Cake and Pitt. The management of a Missouri coun ty fair has decided to deviate rrom tbe traditional cus'otn this year by having men as superintendents and judges In tbe culinary department in place of women It Is contended that men are better Judges of good cooking than women. Another reason for the change Is that hi previous years the work of this de partment has been considerably ham pered because a tribunal composed of women never could agree on which pie or cake or homemade preserve was the best Notice is hereby given that the annual meeting of the stockholders, of the HoBeburg Building Homes As-!

Philadelphia customs olHehils were puzzled bow to classify a colony of KMHiii ants which arrived from London for a student of natural history at Danville. Pa. It was finally decided to classify the ants as "not especially enumerated.'' and a duty of 10 percent ad valorem was Imposed. The Insects, known as umber colore! meadow ants, will be used for education;;! purposes. Formation of Ice. The on use asslgnd for the fact that water freezes only for a comparatively small space at tbe surface of rivers or ponds Is thus explained. Scientists ail thorltatlvely declare that water Is nt its heaviest when it reaches 40 degrees F.-that Is, 8 degrees above freezing point. On n frosty night, as each top layer of water Tails to 40 degrees it sinks to the bottom, therefore the whole pond lias to drop to 40 degrees before any of ft can freeze. At length It is nil cooled to this point, and then Ice begins to form. Hut Ice Is n very bud conductor of beat, therefore It ; shuts off the freezing nlr from the body of warmer water undernenth The thicker It gets tho more perfectly does It not ns a greatcoat nnd ttmt ta why even the Arctic ocean never freezes beyond n few feel In thickness.
