All yes.
Our gonial friend .1. 8. Downey,
tho democratic wat horso and llryan
booster, presented to tlio council at
this Juncture what niny prove tho
best thlni; for tho city that has been
on tho tnpls for a long time. It is a
systematic, sanitary garbnge nystcm,
in which tho utmost cleanliness Is
proposed In tho handling of nil kinds
of garbage.
Accord nit to the brief and tiioorui'
nances presented by Mr. Downey It is
proposed to put Into effect within six
months a cremntory and a system
of wagons and cars for gathering
garbngo and transporting It to the
crematory which will bo bltuated
otitsldo the city. The plan Is a most
conimendablo one. if put Into prac

Tho only ipiobtloii that Is now pond

The following story was one told
by Abraham Lincoln, and is furth
er proof of his ability as a story
teller:
"The only schooling I ever had
was in a log schoolhotise when read
ing books and grammars wire un
known. All our leading was done
from the Scriptures and we stood
up in a long line and read in turn
from the Hible. Our lesson one nay
was the storv of the faithful Israel
ites who were thrown into the fiery
furnace nnd delivered by the Hand
of the Lord without so much as the
smell of fire upon their garments.
It fell to one little fellow to read the
verse in which occurred, for the
first time in the chapter, the names
of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-
ne-go. Little Hud stumbled on tnaii
rach, floundered on Meshach nnd
went nil to pieces on Abed-nc-go.
tnutntiiU the hand of the master
dealt him n cuff on the side of the
head and left him wailing and blub-
Knrimr nu thn lli-vt bnV ill tllC lillC
took up the reading. But, before
1 1 r irirl n t tin- pud of the line had
iHnir he had subsided into
iiiIfllM nnd finnllv became unlet
His blunder nnd disgrace were for
hv the others of the class tin
til his turn was anroachltm to rcat
again. Then, like a thunder-cliip out
nf n rlo.ir skv. he set tin a wail that
even alarmed the master, who, with
rather unusual gentleness inquired
'What's the matter now?'
"Pointing with n shaking finger
at the verse which n few moments
later would fall to him to rend, Hut
tnniineed to (iimvcr out the answer
'Look there, inarstcr there
comes them same damn three fellers
again.' "
