When Mr. Commons was approaching Blakesburg he was surprised to have the woman approach bim aud engage him in conversauon. She appeared a little bashful and spoke with extreme modesty, refine- ment and good manners. “Excuse me,” she said, “'is thut a Knights of Pythias badge you wear?’ The editor answered fo the afiirmative. “Then,” cop- tinued the girl, *T wish to speak to you.

While tha general publio is thoroughly disgustea with the failure of the strect rail- Wway company to start the Dodge street cable, the public cannot by any possible mesus be more put out than the company, which is losing thousands of nickels every day in not being avle to operate its system. On August 20 the cable was shipped from Willlamsport, Pa., and is overdue threo days at this point. Notbing can be heard of the missing cable, and tracers have been sent out from both points 1n order to fiud the stesl rope, whioh comes on to spools, 18,000 tect on a reel. Unless ono is used to buyiug steet rope, It is impossiblo to realizo that the cable for the Omnna Street Railway company costs 810,704, and 1t takes two oabIos & year to operato the systom.
