TEMPLE WAKING CP.
The citizens ot Temple are waking
up, too. Temple is a growing town
and needs a form of government dif
ferent to that of the past—that whicl
she is operating under. Temple and
San Angelo are in about the same
class in point of population and the
old style handling of her affairs Is not
suited to present conditions and neces-
sities any more than it is here in San
Angelo. Consequently citizens of
Temple are waking up.
According to the TelegTam a meet-
ing was billed to be had last night for
the purpose of considering the change
from an aldermanic form to that of
commission form. It is useless to re-
mark that Temple is on the right
track. Towns and cities that have
tried the commission form say it is all
right; reason says It is all right and
it must be all right; at least an im-
provement of the slip-shod methods
of the aldermanic form characteristic
of so many cities.
Not only commission form but city
manager plan Is a step still better, ac-
cording to reports. It occurs to the
Sun that If a private or corporate
business owned by individuals needs
ft managing head, every city needs the
same thing, and the signs are now
that very soon no city of importance
will be without its manager who will

ple which means the passing of the

WASHINGTON, May 29.—"Imnie-

the Austrian city of Trent, lies the
wealthy, ancient city of Verona, a«
Important railway center, a treasury
of art, a museum of splendid remaina
from Roman times through all Italian
periods, and altogether one of the
most beuutlful and interesting cities
of northern Italy," according to
the geographic statement issued by
the National Geographic society to-
day, which deals with the most re-
cent of hostile frontiers in Europe.,
"Verona is a fortress of the first class,
the statement continues, "and one of •
the foremost military centers toward

a garrison of more than 6,000 men is

projects as n deep wedge into the
north Italian hill country. It lies 71
miles west of Venice by rail and 9 3
miles east of Milan, another great
northern railway center, on both
banks of the rapid Adige river. It is
194 feet above sea level, with the main
and older part of the city lying within
an abrupt loop made by the river.
The population of the city, with its
suburbs, is about 80,000. The main
railway lines from Modena and Man-

WHEN ADOPTS DETECTIVES.
If you really wish to insult a man
ask him to be Identified.
If a boy waits until his mother de-
cides he is old enough to be trusted
with a gun he will never go hunting.
Nearly every man who had a fad
wants to see it made a study In the
public schools.
Every bride has two lists. One Is
made up of those who sent presents
and the other of those who didn't.
A man can stand ether Intimate
personal disclosures wit, a good deal
of nonchalance, but the sight of a
woman's bare feet always shocks him.
One reason dinner Is a popular meal
Is that it gives the members of the
family a chance to renew the quarrel
started at the breakfast table.

Tiny Bird Takes I'p AIkmIc in City
Hall and Resists Eviction.
Philadelphia, May 28—A tiny wren,
one of the hundreils of migratory birds
that sought shelter in and around
City Hall from the heavy rains of Fri-
day night, has decided to niakc the
detective bureau his home. All day
yesterday the little songster flew
around the large roll room on the
fifth floor of City Hail and could not
bo Induced to leave, even when a
number of detectives on duty opened
the windows and attempted to shoo
him out.
The tiny bird flew from one electric
light fixture to another cheeping shril-
ly at the men who looked up at him.
Ho seemed quite at home as he flew
about and a dozen times he passed tho
open windows without even a hint of
going out. The wren will be permit-
ted to stay In the detective bureau as
Ions as he wants to remain. There
was some talk yesterday of buildins
a nest for the visitor on top of the
telephone booth.
Kwlless Chain of Pigs.
In a certain county a Wealthy man
wanted to do something for the
worthy poor boys, so-he bought pure-
bred gilts and loaned them to 20
boys. These boys must join the pig
club and do all that is required by the
rules. This fall their hogs must be
bred and next spring two gilts must
be delivered to the owner by each boy
at weaning time. When the boys
have compiled with these require-
ments the mother and remainder of
the litter become the property of the
boy. The two gilts delivered by the
boys are in turn loaned to two more
boys in the country who are required
to do as the first boys did. This
plan Is now in operation in two
eountles.—Holland News.

Verona fell to Austria's share, and the
Austrians caused the city to be strong- ,
ly fortified. The Austrian^ further
fortified Peschiera, Mantau and I.eg-
nago, forming the famous 'Quadril-
ateral,' upon which powerful series of
fortresses the Austrian rule in Italy
relied for its principal support until
1866 Verona is the key position t<
northern Italy.
"Both prosperous and progressive,
the city has multlplteel Its industrial
endeavor many times during the last
score years. Today there are large
paper and cotton mills In the city, an
immense nail factory and piano and
organ factories. There is, also, a sig-
nificant manufacture of war muni-
tions centered here, extensive artillery
establishments and important arse-
nals. Among the other more Im-
portant manufactures are silks, soap,
candles anel sugar. Verona had a
large and growing agricultural com-
merce^ being one of the first Italian
centers of traffic with Austria-Hun-
gary, Switzerland and Germany. It
exported wines, fruits, rice and marble
and twice each year it held a noted
horse market.
"A city of wonderful art works, of
weather stained, white marble palaces,
often richly sculptured and sometimes
showing the worn evidences of sump-
tuous paintings, with Impressive, well
preserved ruins from the days of be-
fore the Christian era, Verona has
somewhat the appearance of luxurious
decay, with which a confident push-
ing, success breathing spirit of the last
few years has contrasted sharply.
The museums, picture galleries, libra-
ries arid ancient churches of Verona
teem with rare treasures. Verona was
the birthplace of the famous Romans,
Catullus, Cornelius Nepos, Pliny the
Younger and Vitruvious."
HER KICKS BALK NLEl'THS.
Not So Much the Display, But Ac-
curacy of Her Aim.
Baltimore, May 28.—When she was
being taken to detective headquarters
in the court house today, charged with
the larceny of four diamond rings,
valued at $400, Mrs. Pearl Trader, a
pretty matron of 19, made things in-
teresting for three detectives.
She behaved until she reached the
court house and near the offices of the
detectives, when she raised her objec-
tions and gave quite an exhibition of
her ability as a high kicker.
The display of silk hosiery was not
Intended as an exhibition, however,
and when the dainty feet were raised
Roll up lettuce ! they were aimed at both the detec-
tives. Although both officers did some
artful dodging, she landed several
times. Pearl's kicking abilities took
the defectives by surprise and so ob-
streperous did she become that ono
of the officers had to pick her up and
carry her into headquarters, where
she soon calmed down.
