Under the law Sisseton is en- titled to two saloons but has decided to have only one. The man to whom the license is granted will pay double for it and in addition will turn over all the profits of the business above a certain sum to the city. Half of this profit will go into the road fund and helf into the city treasury so that both the urban and rural districts will receive benefits therefrom. Agents of the city will take the receipts of the business daily and apportion them un- der the agreement. Railroad After Trackwalkers. The Pennsylvania raflroad has started a big publicity campaign to create public opinion for more strin- gent enforcement of laws against railroad trespassers. The press mat- ter states that more than half the ‘people killed on American railroads are trespassers. When the Pennsyl- vania and other railroads cease kill- ing annually 5,000 employes, pas- wengers and people on unguarded grade crossings, they may gain some support in their desire to jail workingmen and unfortunate out of work for walking on railroad right of way. Conspiracy Against the Birds. A gly little amendment, slipped into the tariff bill by the Senate finance|, committee-upon representations from the millinery feather importers, may and economically important provis- ions of ‘the entire measure—the pro-~ hibition of the importation of plum- age for milliners’ use. This amend- mment looks inmocent ‘and “harmless, and no doubt the finance committee itself has been deceived. Theamend- ment -provides that the feather trade shall ‘have.the right to import plum- “#ge of birds killed as game for food and birds which are recognized pests. This seemed reasonable until- W. T. ‘Hornaday, director of the New York:Zoo, which has led the fight for the preservation of wild life, pointed out that 2,342 species of birds are regarded.as game or pests in various <parts.of the world. The partial pro- hibition of ‘plumage importation ‘Would ‘but ‘set a higher price on' the feathers of these 2,432 species, and the revolting, world-wide extermin- -ation of these “game” and ‘pest” 1 ‘birds would ‘gather fresh momentum. mte——— | ‘REPLY TO JAPAN IS READY ‘Government’s Rejoinder Will Be For- ‘warded to Tokio Soon. ‘Washington, July .—The reply to Japan’s latest note of protest against {ife ‘ California ‘anttallen land law is practically finished and will go ‘for- #Wird :to'ithe Tokio ‘government in a ,«' days. .

Somehow a copy of this letter escaped from the Presl- dent’s files, and, as Nye says, “Was copied from Japan to South Africa and from Beersheba to a given point” Bill Nye disproves the assertion that a reputation as a humorist will keep a man out of public office. In ad- dition to the postmastership 'at Laramie he was justice of the peace for six years, and might bheld other offices within the gift of ‘the community had he so wished. Edgar Wilson Nye was born at Shirley, near Moosehead Lake, at the northern end of Maine, on- August 25, 1850. When he was two years old his parents moved to St. Croix Coun- t yin northern Wisconsin, and he there received-a thorough common school education. He chose the law for a profession, and “was admitted to the bar: but chance. brought him a position as reporter ‘on an evening paper at Laramine City, Wyoming Territory. This work lasted for only a year. He then practiced law for a time, and was elected justice of the peace and later postmaster. Bill Nye was a busy, hard work- ing writer. He probably made more money from his writings than any other humorist of his time, except of course Mark Twin. There was a time, however, when he received one dollar a column; but as he says, “the columns were short and the type large and 1 was glad to get the dol- lar.” Nye tells his family in his charac- teristic way. “Some of the Nyes claim to be of French extraction, and T have a cousin who says he is & William C.

He had a delightfully frank person- ality, and his simplicity of ‘manner and hatred of sham won him a host of friends. Nye never wished to be considered a phenomenon. For some time James Whitcomb - Riley and Bill Nye traveled together, It was an oddly mated team for thej lecture platform and a highly sic- cessful combination In 1877, Nye married Clara Fran- ces Smith. They had two sons and two daughters. On February 22, 1896, he died near Asheville, N.C. With his death there pasSed away the old school of American humor for he had carried into this generation the style of absurd extravagance and exaggera- tion that was characteristic of Josh Billings, Artemus Ward, Orpheus Kerr, and the fun makers of wartime.
