V If there U one thing which the people should demand of those elected to pub llo office,, is that these officials should give frequent and full reports of the ad ministration ofpnblio affairs in their charge.-. There are some laws which require that certain official actions be published In newspapers j .. Such publications are right as far a they go, but the fact is that too little la published, of the full proceedings of mu nlcipal, County and State administra tions, together with itemized statements of the financial condition, of these sev eral departments. These statements should not be mere ly made once a year, bat monthly or quarterly, and be given publicity through the newspaper, in the city and' county, having the best known clrculelloa, and the State's ftnanofal report should be published la the leading paper , in sev eral section or districts throughout the State. For a newspaper to nrge tbese publi cations, may be put down more to mer cenary than other motive, but that the people should know and be kept fully informed as to how their affair are being managed, is simply a matter of business, and one which every tax payer ought to Insist upon. And every public officer ought to also demand that opportunity be given him, to make full public record of his steward ship, both to prove his efficiency and honesty of management of the office he may hold. The few dollars paid lot these publi cations, would be largely offset to the tai payers by the knoweledge gained of how their affairs were being oondncted.

Sir Edwin placed the fish on the ground ond covered it with a handful of grass. When the lad return ed, the place where, the fish had been laid was indicated, end he was told to get It "but it could not be found. On the other hand, the prints of cattle hoofs were found qo the spot wbore It had been. The mystery was presently cleared by the testimony of a peasant, who said that one of the cows feeding' in the meadow had devoured the fish. ' A similar case is mentioned In the Lon don Field. Cows, it-appears, have most accommodating appetites and digestion. When, in the sixties, an Oxford cow was credited ; with' swsUowlng a mackintosh, it drew from Osborn Gordon, then the well known witty censor of Chrietchurch, the expi'esston of a hope that its milk would now be waterproof. , , , Lost Hli Bet.

You think It's always cold in Alaska, do you? Well, Just let mo tell you a little personal ex perience of mine. One day I went hunting with a party of miners. The weather was quite warm when we started, and I perspired freely. Sud denly It turned bitterly cold, and large Icicle formed on my whiskers (I bad grown a full beard). Crossing a small canyon, I entne face to face with a big, ngly looking bear. I had nothing but powder In my gun, and tho man with the cartridges was away behind me, so as a desperate resort I rammed the Icicles from my beard Into the gun and biased away." 'And what happened?' said one of the crowd eagerly. "Why,1 I struck him gqunrely In tho head and killed him." "Killed him? Impossible!" chorused tho crowd. 'But It did, I tell you. The tempera ture suddenly turned warm again, melt- lug the Icicles, and tbe bear died from water on the brain." Detroit Free Press. DaagMosi Factories.

The factory Is so guarded that even its next door neigh bors need have no fear of It, but the possibilities stored there excite tbe Im agination. No one may enter It with out special permit. The employees are all skilled men, well aware of tbe danger of tbe slightest carelessness. They manufacture, among other things, pure anhydrous acid, which is so dan gerous that in Its pure state It is not placed in the market There Is Instant deatlMn Its fumes If they are permitted to eecape. . Nitric acid Is stored In an other part of the factory In big glass carboys.
