BT DEAN COLLINS. What? Clubbed by the club ot the Iriquois Club? Blackballed and kicked out like the veriest dub? Yet over your frost I shall never repine, -I spurn your black stogies and spue out your wine And boldly defy you. Come on 1 Do your worst On Wiiliam-wbo-also-one-tlme-Ban-' dolpn Hearst 1 - Ye say I've forsaken the Democrat bead, - For which I once fought and so freely , was bled ; Abandoned the flag of the Democrat host, Where once I stood stanchest and hol lered the mostl Your bitter arraigument serenely I view And calmly admit that indeed it is true. The Democrat's symbol, with long twirling ears, Crops nothing but thistle weeds every four years, While Behemoth, foe of the docile jackass, Swipes deep with his trunk tn the suc culent grass. Say,- why should I cherish and hold as a friend The beast that eternally gets the short end? But you, who have followed his foot steps so far, - K Pray tell me what breed of a donkey n you are? Do you bray of the tariff or bray of the trust, Or silver, o'er which you at one season fussed, Or lift up your voices in docile acclaim And bray at the sound of the "Com mers" name? What, kicked by a mule? You are welcome to kick ! I bare my broad breast to the mur derous lick I I bless the cruel knife stroke by which I'm undone From the Democrat party I never could run I Farewell I I defy you I Proceed ! Do your worst Against William who-also-one-tlme-Bandolph-Hearst 1 Larceny Case Dismissed. The case of H. S. McCormick, acccused of larceny by Irwin Devlne, of Oakdale, was heard before Justice of the Peace Hardy Holman yesterday morning at 10 a. m. and was dismissed without prejudice. Mr. MoCormlck and his partner were .camped near Dallas with a band of horses, which they were selling and trading among the residents of this vicinity. Mr. Devine claimed that be had negotiated with McCormick for the purchase of a mare vafued at $30, and had offered to pay $15 cash and give bis violin to complete the payment. He said that he was showing the instrument to McCormick, Wednesday evening and, some objection arising, refused to close the deal, whereupon McCormick, who was sitting in his buggy, declared that it was. a trade anyhow and drove away tuking the violin with him. Devine immediately had a warrant sworn out for his arrest but upon hear ing both sides of the case, Justice Hardy Holman decided that the evU dence was not sufficient to warrant the charge of larceny. It appeared that the trade had in reality been closed and that although the horsetrader had perhaps bullied the young man into making it, to a certain extent, there was no ground for the accusation that be had stolen the violin. J. T. Johnson and family returned Wednesday from a trip to Newport J. H. Nies, the tinner In William Fault's hardware store, has been busy for several days making sheet Iron pipes for bop driers In this vicinity. In spite of the reduced crop this year, the demand for hop drier pipes is almost as great as ever. The sample blocks of concrete In both the smooth and the rock front finish which F. H. Pepper and Wes Vaughn have made with their new machine and have on display at the Dallas Ice Factory, are excellently made and will no doubt soon come into general use for building purposes In this city. Their machine for mak ing concrete tiling has also worked successfully and Messrs. Vaugh and Pepper expect a large demand for the new commodity. The test of the county road rollor on the Butler bill near Salt Creek proved highly satisfactory to the County Commissioners who witnessed it. Although the hill Is comparatively steep and very long, the maoblne climbed It with apparently no trouble. and this test was considered sufficient to prove the efficiency of the engine on any of the roads in Polk county. Tbe roller is considerably lighter than tbe one in use on the streets of this city, but is much speedier machine. Oyster shells, great food for young and old chickens, at Lougbary's. tf L. D.

Co Dallas Furniture Company Changes Hands. M. E. Schoweiler has sold his share in the Dallas Furniture Company to Ralph Adams, and will retire from business temporarily. Yesterday was spent in making an invoice prepara tory to the transfer of ownership. Mr. Adams has been in business in Dallas for several years and baa proven him self to be a thoroughly competent and up-to-date business man, and there is no doubt that the business will con tinue to prosper under his individual management Mr. Schoweiler has woo many friends In Dallas during his short residence here, who will regret the ciroumstances that make it necessary for him to retire, but it is to be hoped that he will continue to make his home here as he has always proven himself a loyal and progressive citi zen and one whom we could ill afford to lose.

LOUQHARYS' OFFICE BOY , Well, Sir, school has been out two weeks and I havent had any melons yet I suppose Its my own fault for they are certainly getting plenty enough. I tell you what it is, next to the strawberry, a melon is the best thing a man can eat In the morning, and coffee is the best thing he can drink. A lot of folks have a kind of grouch against coffee drinking, but maybe they never got the right kind. Really good coffee hasn't a grouch In a gallon of It. Poor coffee contains to much of the bitter principal( "tannin," I think tbey call It,) and that makes a fellow peevish, especially too much ot it Lotsof good coffee Is ruined in the making; boiled too long; made too weak, and dosed with poor milk. To be a good and wholesome drink, coffee should be roasted fresh, made strong, and brought just to the boiling point (or made in a coffee percolator by pouring boiling water over the pow dered coffee) and served . with rich cream such as tbe St. Charles or Pio neer brands. Ma says this is so and that good coffee, properly made, never hurts anyone. Have you tried our M. J. B. coffee? WILLIE ...... i . ... . I.- TTORNEY AT LAW B. F. JONES Office In Cooper Building.
