STRONG TESTIMONY FOR WOMAN SUFFRAGE*
The last legislature of Wyoming had occasion to pass unanimously a resolution declaring tlmt woman suffrage "has largely aided in banishing crime, pauperism and vioe from the State that it has secured peaceful and orderly elections, good government and a remarkable degree of civilization and public order, that we point with pride to the fucts that after nearly twenty five years of woman suffrage, not one county in Wyoming has a poorhouee, that our jails are almost empty, and crime, except that committed by strangers in the 8tate, almost unknown, and as the re suit of experience we urge every civilized community on earth to enfranchise its women without delay."
THE
honest way to settle the silver
question is to put a hundred cents worth of silver in the dollar. Increase the ratio from 16 and 1 to -3 and 1 be tween the two metals. Value o«n't be legielnted into anything, whether that thing be silver or wheat. The farmer can with equal propriety demand that he eh:ill receive 81 bushel for his wheat through an act of Congress as the inine owner can demand that he shall receive #1 '29 »n ounce for his silver.
Tn: South CRrolir.a statute prohibit ing all liquor selling except by State dispensaries has been declared unconstitutional by one of the circuit courts of that commonwealth. ThiB makes the law inoperative in that circuit. Before the people have an opportunity to test the practical workings of the law it is an nulled by the courts. The Supreme Court will probably affirm the decision of the lower court.
DEMOCRATIC
success, with- its treat of
free wool, has cost the farmers of the United States from $25,000,000 to $30,000.000 in the depreciation of the price of a single year's clip of wool. The abolition of the tariff on wool means the extermination of the wool producing industry. How do the farmers like the Democratic theory as far as they have gotten in the lesson?

ELEPHANT RUNS AWAY:
He
Has a Good Time on Streets cf Englewood.
the
Th* Fun Beflni with Struggle Between the Big Beaut ud HI* Irish Hlder—Doienn of Lawns
Dfdtrojed.
An enraged elephant ran wild through the streets of Englewood, a suburb of Chicago, the other day, causing a panic among the residents and endangering the liVes of many persons who were in the path of the runaway. The wonder is that but one man was injured, for the brute wns at large more thai two hours, destroying property wherever he ran and doing much damage in the residence district of Englewood.
The animal was a circus elephant that had escaped from his keepers during tho early part of the day. Thrashing to the right and left the monster ran down the streets, through fences and back yards, destroying fine lawns with his big feet and tearing up trees and valuable shrubbery with his trunk, lie evidently had great sport with the good Englewood folk,who were thrown into a state of terror ty tho mad run of the animal.
The alarm spread Nom house to house and mothers ran about wildly looking for their children, while tho entire populace took care to keep a good distance from the beast's path.
Following the elephant was a crowd of shouting men trying to get the runaway under control, but as a matter of fact doing nothing but adding to the anger of the brute and increasing the alarm of the people.
The runaway is the property of the Harris Circus company, a concern whose tent has been pitched at Fortyeighth street, near Wcntworth avenue. The tent was taken down for removal and with other property was packed in circus wagons, and about eight o'clock the procession began moving south along Wentworth avenue to a newly selected location on Sixty-fifth street. The menagerie followed. For the most part it carried itself.
Chief among the captive animals was a very-humble-appearing elephant. Astride his broad back sat James O'Eourke. That combination caused the trouble. O'Rourke is now in the
THE MONSTER OS THE RAMPAGE,
county hospital suffering with two broken ribs and nursing numerous bruises.
The injured man is an Irish follower of the circus, but was not in charge of the animals. He succeeded in keeping the elephant in the roadwa3' and headed south until Fifty-fifth street was reached. By this time his captive began to grow uneasy and showed a desire to deviate from the straight path.' The driver kickcd his heels in the tough sides to no purpose and finally continued the attack with a sharp stick handed hiin by one of the bystanders.
The weapon made an impression on the headstrong animal. lie stopped, twitched his (lapping ears and waved his trunk in evidence of dissatisfaction. O'Rourke continued the punishment, while the crowd applauded. Hut the elephant rebelled against corrective measures. fie threw O'Rourke to the ground and while the crowd scattered in di.smuv charged on the fallen driver. The man tried to crawl away and avoid the direct onslaught. Before he could cscape the excited animal had stepped on his side, crushing two ribs. Other employes of the circus started to the rescue, but the elephant left O'Rourke and trotted down street. The injured man was picked up and sent to the county hospital. while the menagerie manager, followed by a crowd of spectators, started after the flying elephant. Then began the chase through Englewood, up one street and down another, through back yards and flower beds. When a good portion of the suburb had been traversed and trampled upon in this wise "old double ends" was brought up with a round turn and submitted to the dictation of his captors. fie was taken back to the circus, which had moved on and set up its tent at Sixty-fifth street. Here a very stout chain was put around the brute's leg and it is safe to say ho will not be given an opportunity to cut such a caper in a long time to come.
A Violet and a Clinging Vine, It was on a train going through Indiana. Among the passengers were a newly married couple, who mode themselves known to such an extent that the occupants of the car commenced passing sarcastic remarks about them. The bride and groom stood the remarks for some time, but finally the latter, who was a man of tremendous size, broke out In the following language at his tormentors: "Yes, we're married. Just married. We are going one hundred and sixty miles further on this train, and I am going to 'spoon' all the way. If you don't like it yon can get out and walk. She'n my violet and I'm her sheltering oak." During the remainder of their journey they were left in peace.

In a flelti apart two violets bloomed. And over thrir heads the tall grass loomed, Atul there amo one day a frolicsome breeze That purled the grass so they saw tho trees. And catching a qliuipso of tho world out.sido They chaffed ui tho fate that had kept them tied To a nook obj ure in a gloomy dell Where scarcely a drop of dew o'er fell, And they 1 rooped tholr heads, for they longed to S4H» What the wonderful world outsido might be. When, lo! as it happened, a maiden strayed Close by where the bret&e with tho violets played. And seeing but one—for they grow apart— She PIYS.MH! it quick to her throbbing heart And took away, and the flower was glad. But the on» that was left behind was sad. And drooped it* sorrowful head, and pined. And paid no heed to the whispering wind Until. as it chanced, next day, once more The maiden came, and her breast ntill bore The faded one that she'd taken away With a sting in its heart but yesterday. And seeing its brother growing free It cried with its dying breath: "Ah inel I've neeu the world, and behold my fate. So hide your head ere it bo too late." Bat the one that was left said, "I'm not afraid/' And lifted its face to the merry maid* "Tomorrow I'll bo coutent to die, Bui lei me now to the gay world fly.". —Tom Massoo.

CHINESE SOLDIERS.
Movel Way la Which They lUcelve Thwlr Pay.
The Chinese soldier receives his pay onoe a month only, and Chinese months, it may be remembered, are much longer than those we are accustomed to reckou by. On the eve of the pay day the captain of the company, together, with his sergeant-major, goes aud receives the amount of money requisite to pay his company from his next superior officer, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
This is not paid to him in jingling coins but in pure silver, which, however, has been broken into somewhat irregular pieces. The whole of the night preceding pay day is occupied in weighing out for each man the required quantity of silver, and this occupation, as may be imagined, Is a very tedious one, and only successfully accomplished by Infinite care, for here a piece the size of a pin's head has to be clipped off, and there apiece of larger dimensions has t* be added to make up weight, and any deviation one way or the other means the loss of perhaps a day's pay or more to some poor defender of tho celestial empire.
When the process of melting out is accomplished the silver is carefully wrapped in paper, upon which is written the name of the intended recipient On the following afternoon the company is mustered. and the sergeantmajor divides the money, commencing with the first man in the company and going on to the last When this division Is concluded the question is asked in stentorian tones: "lias anyone else a claim?" and the customary "No" having been promptly given, the men are then dismissed.
Each man now repairs to the nearest tradesman's shop, where he exchanges his silver. For one tael he receives one thousand small coins called cash, perforated in the center so as to allow of being threaded on a string, and, having received the proper amount, turns homeward with a cheerful mien, but nearly sinking be&eath his burden.
The private receives three and onehalf.taels, equal to about nlneteeen shillings, monthly, out of which he has to provide himself with clothes and food, But he lives on riee and bis clothes cost but a trifle.

"I have fished all along the co^st, from the St John's to the Hudson, said the irrepressible Capt.

Iran out in a Barnegat sneak boat with a friend and we had a fine run of luck. The blues were running very large in the wake of a school of menhaden, and as for fat, ohl my!

We did not mind that so much, for we were on a bank and able to anchor, but when my friend went tc light his anchor lights he found to his horror that the oil had run out and the oil can was empty. "There we were right in the track ot coastwise traffic and liable to be run down before morning for want of a light For half a minute I was flabbergasted. Then a bright idea struck me.

USES OF VARIOUS DOGS. Every Dog Hal Ull Specialty, and That or tha Fug Leukine Crly.
A St. Bernard dog set out to look fo help, says Harper's Young People. came upon a Newfoundland dog, and said to him: "I will hire thee to guarc my children, and to rescue, if by chand one of them fall Into the water."
