In our report of the election of Mar tin Laughliu, yesterday, we made a slight error in giving the vote. Ou the third ballot the vote credited to James Foreman was received by Peter Soldner, The devil of a North Missouri paper has an ambition to become a paragraphed The other day he produced the following which he submitted to the editor: There are no hair on a frog; Good apples grew high, also cherries; ' The bumble bee looks pretty, but cut him out; The farmer what raises wheat kin get full and raise other things: The Lord made the earth, but ■ Morgan and Carnegie owns it: A corn is a wart on your toe. Corn and warts are just the same, only different, “Young Brown is a smart fellnw,” said the manager of the collecting department to the great lawyer. “Yes? What’s he been doing now?” asked j the great lawer. “Why, he was in the i office alone yesterday when he 1 eard ; that Silk & Satin were financially etui barrassed. We were holding one cr ' two claims against them, r n I he rush ed out and slapped on an attachment just fifteen minutes before they closed their doors.” “Got in ahead of everyone, did he?” “Beat every other creditor,” said the manager. The gieit lawyer looked pleased. “It was a great piece of work.” he said. “I like i to set* a young man with some enter- ■ prise and brains. What did youdo?” '“I told him it was a good piece of I work.” “What?” The great lawyer 1 looked startled. “Why, I comph- ' mented him for his promptness and business sense.” “Merciful heavens, man, that will never do'.” cried the great lawyer. “He’ll lie asking for more salary. Go out and and tell him that if he hadn’t been here the office j boy could have done it just as well!”

I “It ain’t no figger of speech,” commented the philosopher, “that justice is blind. Nothin’ happens to the man that makes the toy pistol, the fellow that sells it or the guy that buys it for his little boy, but the kid who don’t know no better, gits the punish merit, itat's cornin' to all the others.” “Djwu and Up” at the Bjsse opera house Thursday Feb. 1. If the old adage, “Laugh and grow lai,” counts for anything at all; it will be safe to predict that anyone who has the pleasure of attending this performance will increase in avoirdupois. | From the rise of the curtain until its final fall the spirit of mirth and fun p'avails, calling forth prolonged laughter. “Down and Up” is an acrobatic farce comedy constructed on a scale differing in many ways from the average farce comedy, and it is re freshing to know that the art of genuiue fun making on the stage, with comedy gymnastics and humor coupled with novel scenic effect is not a thing of the past. “A young North Carolina girl gave me a center shot the other day as a token of that pride of locality which is more pronounced in the South than elsewhere.” Said Mr Henry O. Connors. of Baltimore, at the Ebbitt. “It was quite a small place, but it boasted of one very fine hotel, at which I stop ped all night. After a good breakfast 1 paid my bill to the grown daughter <>( the lady who ran the tavern and ; who was quite up in the duties of a cashier. ‘You have a nice little town here, miss.' said I. trying to make friends with the good-looking clerk, ‘but I must say that I never knew there was such a town on the map till | the Southern railroad landed me here ! yesterday.' Eying me cooly and look- ! ing me squarely iu the face, the TarI heed maiden said: ‘Where lie you ; from, mister?’ I owned up to BaltiI more, and this is what she handl'd me: ‘Well, I recon there’s lots of I folks in Baltimore that are just as | ignorant as you.’" Washington Post. $2.00 more than half fare from Cla- | cago iia Chicago Great Western raili way to points in Colorado, Kansas.

MINERS STILL ENTOMBED Bodies in the Harwick Disaster Not Recovered. Pittsburg. Jan. 27. —Even the elements seem conspiring to prevent the i work of rescue at the Harwick mine. Almost zero weather and a bitter, bit- , ing. cruel wind swept down over the | little valley where the mine is located | and nearly added another list of dead ■ to the long black table already measured off. Not only was the work of search for the dead and living, if any ' are still alive, rudely interrupted, hut cold and ice and wind combined nearly cost, the lives of sixteen more good men. Sixteen men went down into the shall to do the work of brailicing.' bolstering, tunnelling and removing I the debris tiiat has so far barred their I progress into the workings where the men were at labor, when the explosion came. Their shift was supposed to be of three hours only. Even ai that it was a hard task. Even before the bucket reached the bottom they were drenched with water which the cold draft through the shafts turned to ice. It was six hours after I lie first three men of the party who went down w< ■ ■ brought to the surface. Not one of them was able to walk, so numb by the cold were they, and then they told j of the experience in the mine below. Henry Beckert was one of the first men out of the eage. "It was a fright-1

ful experience,” said he “We were too cold to work. There is apparently no one to rescue. We had a hard tim< to find many of the dead. A shred ot clothing here ami anothen there, a jacket, i pair of overalls, but few bodies.” Alleged Defaulter Taken. Cincinnati, Jan 27. —A telegram received here from Denver, Colo., states’ ! that Fred. Tat eman, the alleged de faulting treasurer of the International Wood Carvers' Union of North Amer ica. is under arrest in that city. Tate man is charged with embezzling $3,745 from the union. He will be extradited and brought back > this city. She Took Them nl Tl'.eir Word. Keuka lake is one of tic most attrac : live of ihe gr-at chain of lakes in the ; interior of New York slate.

It was upon Hie bai.ks of this lake tiiat the famous "Jemima Wilkinson” founded a colony n .‘:ir!y three generations ago i and announced tiiat she could walk up I on the v ator of the lake. A large crowd gathered to -cc her uudertak ■ the ex periinent. Turn rig to her followers, I she asked. "Have you all faith that > I <au walk upon the water':" "We have! We have:” her followers K plied. "Then there is n.> use in my undertaking to d • ■ so.” she replied "If ye have faith je shall be saved without my walking u[>l on ihe waler." Syracuse Telegram.
