Remarkable disclosures as- to the extraordinary manner in which the books of the American city of "Milwaukee, in the State of Wisconsin-, were kept under its Socialist municipality have (says the New York correspondent of the Daily Mail) been made in a report that has just been presented to the new Mayor. The Socialists were defeated at the polls last April, and dislodged' from power. Fifty thousand errors-have already been detected in the books, involving almost every contract entered' into by the So-cialist-administration-.' Records of purchases and contracts were hopelessly mixed,' and in a large number of cases there were no receipts for payments that had been made. According to the chief clerk of Milwaukee: "We came across cases where contracts to tflie amount of £4OOO were involved, and a year later no record showed whether or iiot the money had' been paid. In one case £SO was appropriated for a horse. We have been able to find out that the ■horse was purchased, but from whom or when is a mystery." The expenditure was prodigious. To provide public works for-'the poor- tile rates were raised by £BO,OOO in 1010 and by £IBO,OOO in I!)II, and a further increase must have incurred this year if the city had not risen against the Socialists and driven tilem out. An old ceremony known a» "common riding,'-' or the. "riding of the marches," took place at Langholm recently with' the usual •quaint ceremonial. At halfpast five in the morning a round race or trail took place over a course of about ten miles near the town for a silver *up and £B. This old and popular Border gport brought out a very large gathering of spectators. At half-past eight there was a large gathering of horsemen at the Town Hall, where the towr/s. flag was presented to the cornet. The cornet, supported by past cornets and' many other riders, iaud accompanied by -the town band, paraded the burgh> and before the cavalcade commenced the rough and step ascent to the Castle Crags, oa the summit of Whita Hill, Mr : . C. Elliot, standing on horseback, made the first proclamation, calling on the lieges to go out in defence of their properties and see "gif a' oor marches they be clear." The riders were absent from the town for an kour and' a-half. On the hill they wore regaled with barley bannocks and "saut herrin'." On returning to the town they were joined in procession by several hundred children nourishing heather besoms, while men carried aloft a monster thistle, a floral crown, a spade bedecked with heather, and a barley bannock with a herring nailed to it. * Various sods were cut at particular points, and the rest of the day was devoted to horse races, sports Most delicious to drink, most economical to use, the easiest to make, the eheapest to buv rs "Camp Coffee." 3 WIPE C'TREDHUSBAND OF ASTHMA. "My wife is my doctor; she understands my complaint very well," says Mr. Alfred Burnett, 07 Wicksteed Place, Wanganui, X.Z. "When I had an attack of asthma she gave me a rubbing with Chamberlain's Pain Balm, got me to take Chamberlain's Cough Eemedy at the same time and the relief was wonderful. I am satisfied that this treatment is the best I have ever tried, and I recommend it to all sufferers from asthma." Sold by all chemists and storekeepers.
