Ib seems queer that there Should be
a "Morro" castle at Havana, anotber

enter the Jewish priesthood.
The superintendent of public instruction warns officers of school districts against agents selling reading

The farmers of the United States in
marketing the produce of their farms
haul 500,000.000 tons of freight vearly
over 1,000,000 miles of public roads.
As a rule, the roads are bad roads.
Gen. Ray Stone estimates that the
loss because of the difficulty of transportation is not less than $600,000,000
per year, and fch_at bhis yearly loss
would pay tbe interest at 3 per cent,
upon an outlay of money sufficient to
rebuild all tbe bad roads and maintain
tbem In proper repair afterwards.
Gen, Stone is an expert, and his calculations are probably very nearly correct. Can bhe farmers and the people
not farmers who traverse the roads
afford to go on from year bo year
bhrowing away enough money to carry on the federal government, aad
thus needlessly double their burdens?
While there have been Decoration
days in Clare which have been
observed with a more complete program, yet the exercises of last Monday
were conducted by the members of the
Clare G. A. R. and W. R. C. in a yen-
appropriate manner, honoring as besb
bhey could, the memory ot our heroic
dead. It was a beautiful day, and tbe
people came from the surrounding
country to participate and pay tribute.
Business houses closed for several
hours during the day. Store buildings
and residents were decorated with
flaps, presenting a patriotic sight.

MUSSELL,
It "is nob generally known that those
having fruit brees are compelled to
sp*--v them in ord^r to Kill the bisects
that infest them. Tino law was passed
by the last legislature, bub you are not
to spray while the trees are in blossom, J. C. Ludlow, an experienced
nurseryman, informs the writer that
the Bordeaux mixture, ffhich is made
as follows, is an excellent spray: 4 lbs.
sulphate of copper, 4 lbs. fresh lime, 40
gallons of water. Coddlin moth and
curculia can be killed by adding 3
ounces of paris green ,to the above
mixture. Don'b neglecb to spray your

A single bitter word may disauiet
an entire family for a whole day. One
surly glance casts a gloom over the
household, while a smile of sunshine may light up thedarkestand
weariest hours. Like unexpected
flowers which spring up along the path
full of freshness, fragrance and beauty,
so kind words and gentle acts and
sweet dispositions make glad the
sacred spob called home, Kb matter
how humble bhe abode, if it be sweetened with kindness and smiles, the
heart will turn longingly toward ib
from all the tumult of the world, and
home, if it be ever so homely, will be
the dearest spob beneath the circuib
of the sun.—Great Thoughts.
Have we a ciby marshal, or have we
nob? Ah, thab is the question. Oity
Marshal Weir was arrested this week
on complaint of _Mw. TJnicume, Sr.,
on the charge of assault. He will
have his trial on June 14. Mr. W.
was not required to furnish any bail,
but is out on his own recognizance.
The trouble grew from the marshal
placing Joe Pearl, who was in TTni-
enme's employ, under arrest for driving over a main street walk when forbidden nob to do so. Mi*. Uaicume objected to these proceedings and in the
course of the altercation Weir and
Unicume clinched, the latter being
thrown to the ground. Of course there
is a lob of little things irt the matter
beside, which we might pub In bo em-
All posbmasters haye been notified
by the department that the Trans-
Mississippi Exposition postage sbamps
will be _ eady for sale in a few days.
These sbamps will bo printed upon
the same plan as the Columbian
Stamps were and issued in denominations of one cenb, two cents, four
cents, five cents, eight cents, ten
cents, fiftv cents, one dollar and two
dollars. The one-cent stamps will
show a picture of "Marquette on the
Mississippi," after Lamprecht's painting of the same name. The bwo-cent
ones show the bridge over tbe Mississippi at Sb, Louis, The obhers will
conbain pictures of different scenes
characteristic of the West. No, envelopes or postal cards are to be issued,
only adhesive stamps. Postmaster
Kirkbride has ordered a .supply of
various denominations. While the
Omaha stamps will not be issued after
the close of the year, like the Columbian stamps they will be good at any
time.  ___
While the bees of last Friday and
Saturday, for the purpose of cleaning
the mill pond of cjebrie, in order to
make "Lake Dewey," were nob as well
abbended as tbey .should haye been,
great good was accomplished nevertheless, and as it is now about 60 acres
are cleared. - Ib seems strange that
more of our citizens have not awakened to tbe splendid opportunity now
at hand to make an ideal summer resort. Nature has already done a greab
deal for the place and if 50 or 75 men,
with a few teams, could be procured
for another day, we could have a beautiful sheeb of waber aboub a mile long
and from one-quarber to half a mile in
width. We would not only have a
splendid place for boating and fishing
witbin our city limits, bat, asagentle-
man from Ohio, while in the city over
Sunday, remarked to ye scribe, "Why.'"
said he, "we would come all the way
from Toledo to spend a-day sporting on
such a lake as could be made here."
The forming of the lake would mean
healthful pleasure for all of this community, and would bring thousands of
dollars into our city. The necessary
work witt have to be done in the
course of the next few days, or never. ^
Will this splendid opportunity be improved?      	
Tbe fishing season having opened up,
the following explanations of a fisherman's rights may prove interesting:
It is unlawful to use two poles for
fishing at the same time. It is unlawful to.set your pole and go away and
leave it. It is unlawful to use a net,
spear, grab-book, or snare or any other
device, excep hook and line. It is unlawful to use any other net but a small
dip net for catching minnows. To
use a neb over six feet long precludes
bhe possibiliby of taking larger fish,
and is held hy the supreme court to be
unlawful. The revised law of 1897
makes the maximum penalty for vioia-
blon $125 and all cases brought before
the justice must either be discharged
or bound over bo the circuit court. ISo
letting off under a suspended fine by
the justice. "A private lake.or pond,
or waters, or those that are not navigable, and the" soil Under and on the
borders of which is owned exclusively
by the person or persons whoclaim the
water as their private property; and
having no ' connection with obher
streams or Waters which are public,
and through which fish may pass.
The owner of such ponds may catch
his own property, ab any time, for his
own use, and also prosecute trespassers," The law does not protect the
suffering public from "fish stoirea,"
and enlarged photographs of the
"catch" made bvthe story teller are
nob prohlbibed.
