Tnrc Luetcert. trial once ajrain The papers have rehearsed And now this chief of sausage men
Most surely knows the wurst.
THK Spanish minister's name may not exactly be "mud," but geologists will be strongly teinpied to write it de Loam.
IT is given out that liryan intends to spend the spring in Massachusetts, a State where he had a great fall not long ago.
THK Alaskan gold fields are proving much richer than those in Uritish possessions. Each new report from the field is gaudier than its predecessor.
IT is whispered that a gold seeking expedition to Alaska is being organized hero in Crawfordsville. Well known business men are back of the enterprise.
THK trace of gold Uncovered on Mr. Bryan's Nebraska farm is thought to be an outcropping of the yellow metal he salted away during the county fair season labt year.
TIIK sudden giving way of the church Hoor at a west Virginia funeral was followed by the stampede of everybody present except tho corpse. Its spirit had alread tied.
IN speaking of the increased exports of the United Statis a German otlicial refers to "those overbearing Americans." It would be more candid to complain about our overbearing fields and orchards.
AN authority's statement that every square mile of the sea is inhabited by 120,000.0 i0 fish is entertaining and possibly useful, but some accurate statistics about the number of suckers to every tquare mile of land will be both.
A HILL, to tax bachelors S3 a year introduced in the New Jersey House, wa6 referred to the committee on "lunatic asylum. The author of the bill admits that he may have made a mistaken estimate of the value of bachelorhood.
A I.KTTKii received in Georgia was addressed in this unique fashion: "To My Son William—if he's keepin' good company. If he ain't, please return, as there's S3 in it The postal authorities decided that the address was sufiicieut and omitted the moral investigation.
CAI'T. TALHOT claims to have invented an electric hook which shocks a fish to death the moment the bait is touched. The idea of pulling out of the water an inert ot ject in the form of an electrocuted bass would have made the gentle I/.aak use language that could be represented only by asterisks.
IT is reported that the roads in some places are the worst in years. Careless superintendents allow heavy loads on narrow tires to be hauled and on some gravel roads wagons are being pried out of the ruts. This would seem to indicate that our method of road building is fundamentally wrong. Good roads should be good roads the year round.
THK gold standard is making rapid headway among the Central and South American Republics. As is well known, several of these countries have within the past two years discarded the silver standard, and there are prospects of additions to this number in the near future. This change in the money standard has had a marked eftVct in establishing gold-producing industries in that part of the world in the increase in the quantity of gold produced and in the number of gold mines developed during the past two veiara.

Jlcvlcw: Gen. Lew Wallace
has lately erected at a cost of forty thousand dollars a spacious and handsome study which lie willed to the city of Crawfordsville at his demise. It has been built with a view to use as a puolic library, while the General will occupy it during his lifetime. One or two public spirited and generous men, with means and judgment can often add vastly to the permanent and useful ad vantages of a city by such gifts even on a smaller scale than Gen. Wallace's provision for the future of the city of hi? residence
SILVER AXD WHEAT IX KANSAS. Harper's Weekly: He/e is a story of a man who was converted to Populism by hearing 'Mr. Hryan speak. Every detail is vouched for by men of the highest standing. A Republican who has always been true to the party faith was in the crowd when Mr. Bryan spoke in the 1896 campaign in his own State. He heard Mr. Bryan say: "Ah. my friends, let me call your atteution to one fact that stands out clearly beyond contradiction. It is that wheat and silver stand inseparably yoked together. If one falls thei other falls, and then we fall. Look at their price to-day [it was something over 00 cents]. They are within one cent of each other. I tell you they are together now, inseparably yoked.'"
That Republican was converted right there. That was something he had never thought of. He had an 80 acre piece of land, and he reasoned that if Bryan was elected silver would go up to SI 25, and wheat would go with it. He owed nearly S'2,000 on the land, and if wheat should go to SI 25, he figured, how easy it would be to pay off that mortgage. Well, Bryan was not elected, but the man went on with his winter wheat sowing because he had made all preparations for it, but his heart was heo,vy. He did not see how he was going to pay off that mortgage at half rates. He raised 3,200 bushels of wheat, and got 33,200 for it. He sold just below 70 cents, and then he went to look at the price of silver. It was something like '17 cent*, and that man saw a great iight. He lost on Mr. Bryan's prophecy and election, but he won on the wheat. He made enough to pay off his mortgage, and has now gone back to the iKepublican partv, as have thousands of others, which accounts for the fact that instead of having only about one-third of the voters of the State, as was the case three years ago, the Republicans came within 15,000 of winning last, year against a fusion of Democrats and l'opuiists.
Si'KAKiNn of the contemplated building of the Nicaragua canal in an article on "Railroads versus Canals," iu the North American llcvicw for Feb ruary, J. A. Latcha says: "If we build the Nicaragua caual the commerce of Japan, of Chiua, and of India would seek the channel and would be carried upon European vessels by En ropean seamen, for European benefit Not a ton of that Old World trade wou'd paBS the portB of Portland, of San Francisco, or of Los Angeles for the A'lan tic coast or for Europe. Our Pacific coast trade would be blighted and destroyed, as was that of the cities of the Mediterranean when t-be world's commerce was diverted around Good Hope, and we would not have developed sutlieiently in the commercial struggle of the world to leave even respectable ruins to posterity."
TIIK manufacturers of the country have not only found a much larger market at home since the enactment of the Dingley law, but have also been able to prove the inaccuracy of the Democratic assertion that the protective tarill' would reduce their markets in other parts of the world. The sales of American manufacturers to foreign purchasers in the live mouths' operation of the Dingley law, beginning August 1, 1M'.)7, and ending January 1, ISOcj, were in round numbers SI IS,000,000, which was in excess of the sales of manufactured articles in the corresponding months of the preceding year under the Wilson law.
THK action of the Senate committee on appropriations in doubling the amount to be set apart for coast defenses is significant. Perhaps the Senate may not accept its committee's recommendations, and if it does accept them the House may refuse to sanction such an increase in appropriations. When the House passed the bill, however, the outlook was not as threatening as it is now. The DeLome affair is what made the Senate's committee raise the figures for coast defenses, and if the chances for trouble continue for a few days both Senate and House will allow the tignres to stand, or may increase them.
MA.NV remarkable things happen in the unsettled districts of Chicago. A fow months ago a prairie fire swept across a vast grassy expanse in one of the new wards. The league-long billows of flame formed a thrilling spectacle, and the loss in hay was large. Last week, on a much traveled street, the body of a man was dug out of a snow bank, where it had been hidden from view nineteen days. People visiting Chicago should be cautious during a snow storm unless they are ready to risk a mysterious disappearance.
I would be safe to say that for sweetness of expression and literary charm George du Maurier never wrote anything better than "Social Pictorial Satire,"' the concluding part of which will appear in Harper's Mmjar.inc for March. He discusses Leech and Keeue, the. well known I'unch artists, men whom he knew and loved: tells of the present scope and future possibilities of pictorial satire, and adds a few delightful paragraphs concerning his 1 own work.

I am surprised that a Texas man should inquire for such prominent places as Number Thirteen, Round Hill, JamestowD, Kirkpairick, etc. The wonder is he did not ask for Wingate, Linden, Darlington and Waynetown. Why should a man in Texas want to know where any of these are'.' Why don't he write up Mexico or something close at home'.' I heard it suggested that Texas might be iu Southern Indiana. Maybe it is. I am sure I do not know. I heartily agree with the Wingate and Waynetown scribes that correspondents should be required to write from a definite place, using a significant name. I am ready to describe and locate Number Thirteen whenever called on to do so.

Cancer
0! the Breast.
Mr. A. H. Crausby, of 15s Kerr St., Memphis, Tciin., says that his wife paid no attention to a small lumo which appeared in her breast, but it soon developed into a cancer of the worst type, and notwithstanding the treatment of the best physicians, it continued to spread and grow rapidly, eating two holes in her breast. The doctors soon pronounced her incurable. A celebrated New York specialist then treated her, but she continued to grow worse and when informed that both her aunt and grandmother had died from cancer he gave the case up as hopeless.
Someone then recommended S.S.S.
and though little hone remained, she begun it, and an improvement was noticed. The cancer commenced to heal and when she had taken several bottles it disappeared entirely, and although several years have elapsed, not a sign of the disease lias ever returned.
