The interebt taken in Republ'can politics this year, is wonderful. Every little couveutioa developes a first-class contest.

Ma.J'ir Doxky, of Anderson, has dis- 1 tributed 9,000 buttons with a handsome picture of himself announcing his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Governor.

1' DriiiUN 1 tjM and E. H. Nebeker, of Covington, are candidates for Republican National cmmitteeman from this State. Roscoe O. Hawkius, of Indianapolis, is also a possible candidate.

T11 kIili are number of men in this city who do considerable kicking against the Ci'y Council. Now is ihe time to get in your work. Go to the convention today aud vote and work for the man who best represents your ideas and opinions on public liprni'Mii uts aad party policies. If you do not know how the candidates stand, ask for an expression on all questions of importance. If, however, you set back apathetically and take no interest or part in the nominations today, do not object to tbe candidates nominated, but support them earnestly and vigorously tor their election.

Whoa, Wench, you little old darling! Fifteen dollars I am offered! Can't I get the half? Fifteen once! Do I bear the half? No? Fifteen twice! Third and last call and sold to Mr. Carl for $15." And the auctioneer, who was also tbe civilian clerk in tbe poEt quartermaster's office, tenderly caressed tbe face, gray with age, of the little brown mule, and, brushing his brad across his own eyes, walked slowly back to bis desk in tbe office.

Wench was led off to the blacksmith shop to be branded on the left of the neck, "I. C. S."—"inspected, condemned, sold." Twelve other mules bad passed under the hammer ahead of ber that morning and then to the branding iron. Tbe last one before her was Jim, whose neck was still smoking with the

Two years ago the quartermaster had picked out Wench and Jim to submit to the inspector for condemnation, but one at a time the teamsters had all come to plead for their retention, and he had yielded to their entreaties. Last year again he had marked them for the list, but again gave way to the teamsters.

Republican Mass Convention.

The Republicans of the First and Second wards of the city of Greenfield, will meet in mass convention at the council chamber on Tuesday, March 24th, 189B, at 7 o'clock for the purpose of selecting a candidate for counciiman from their respective wards.

But this time the chief quartermaster stepped in with his authority, and, remarking that there was no place in the quartermaster's department for sentiment, ordered Wench and Jim to be condemned and sold.

For more than a score of years these two little beasts have faithfully served the government, and all this time they have been mates. In the pack train they jogged along together in the wagon train they pulled over the same spreader in the camp they ate out of the same feed box in the stable they stood in the same stall in the corral they were always found side by side. Tonight, for the first time in this quarter ceutury, they will be apart, for Jim was bought by Mr. Hammond, and Wench was knocked down to Mr. Carl, and Uncle Sam's exchequer is licher by $^0.50.

No place for sentiment in the quartermaster's department! Of course not, yet "breathes there the man with soul so dead" that he does not believe these two little dumb creatures will miss each other this night and many a niglit?

As the sale went on the teamsters stood on one side like mourners at a comrade's burial on the other, the farmers and ranchmen and contractors and lumbermen from 20 miles around, all there to bid in as cheap as possible the mules the quartermaster's department was done with. Against tho name of each mule on the list stood the legend, "Old and worn out in service."

There were old Rooneyand Bevis and Ewss and Schaeffer and the rest of the teamsters who have driven and packed these mules over thousands of miles of mountain and prairie. Are they to he laughed at for wearing sad faces now? Yet they bore the ordeal like xnen good and true until Jim was led out. Then you could see their sleeves, one after another, drawn across their eyes. "This here's awful, b*oys," old Rooney remarked. "I can't stand it. I'd rather see the gover'ment bust than see them two mules sold." "You're right, Rooney," old Bevis spoke. "A gover'ment mean enough to sell them two mules ain't fit to stand. But their comments were stopped by the auctioneer's third and last call on poor little Jim.

After the sale was over a farmer, wearing a canvas overcoat that he had bought at a previous sale of condemned stuff and that bore in the middle of the back the big black letters, "I. C.," I stepped up to the teamsters and asked why they hated so much to see the last two mules sold. "Why?" asked old Schaeffer, half angry, tossing the moisture off his wrinkled choek. "Because they're the best friends we ever had. Them two mules was back with the pack train the day I Custer and his men was wiped out. They toted packs during all the 187 6 and I' 1877 campaigns 'gin the Indians. They're the best pair of leaders that was ever in this corrali They can drive the'selves, and in their young days, whenever there was a fight or skeery place to go through or a hard pull to make, they was the first ones called for. They he'ped haul the Seventh from here to Riley, and the Eighth from there up here. There's never been a campaign or a march from this post that them mules ain't gone on it. And they've never been separated till today, an durned if I b'lieive they'll work a lick by the'selves. Do you, Bevis?" "I sho' hope they won't," this old fellow answered bitterly. And thoy walked away to the teamsters' mess.— New York Herald.

An Adventure In the Sahara.

Tartarin narrated his latest exploits in the desert: I was sinking deeper and deeper into the sand, and I owe my preservation solely to the fact of my being prematurely and completely 'bald." "You are jesting." *"Not at all. The sun was shining fiercely, a strong wind was blowing at the time the sand drifted about my feet aud rose gradually higher until it reached my chest—in short, there was soon nothing to be seen of me above the sand but a light elevation as round as an egg that was tny skull. An ostrich, happening to pass that way, closely pursued by the hnnters, came and squatted on my head. It was beginning to hatch me when its ptirsuera same to my rewtaa."

rhe Tonne Elcctrioisa Obtain# Results That Suggest New Fields of Usefulness Tor Professor Roentgen's Discovery—Msj

An article by Nicola Tesla is published in the current number of Tbe Electrical Review describing his experiments in radiography. The scientific world has been eagerly awaiting an expression of opinion from Mr. Tesla, who is known to have begun bis experiments within half an hour after the news of Professor Roentgen's discovery was cabled to this country. Two remarkable radiographs are printed with the article. One of these shows the right shoulder of a man taken through his clothing and through a plate of glass three-sixteenths of an inch thick and two inches of wood. This radiograph, which was made at the distance of four feet from the source of the rays, shows the ribs, shoulder bones and bones of the tipper arm. The other radiograph shows a copper wire bent to form the word "Roentgen," and was made at a distance of 11 feet from the wooden slide covering the sensitized plate.

Mr. Tesla also states that the rarefaction of Crookes tubes used in theEe experiments may be increased by electrical means to any degree desirable, far beyond that obtainable by mechanical appliances. In regard to the nature of rays he says: "lam getting more and more convinced that we have to deal with a stream of material particles, which strike the sensitive plate with great velocities. Taking as a basis the estimate of Lord Kelvin on the speed of projected particles in a Crookes bulb, we arrive easily by the employment of very high potentials to speeds of as much as a hundred kilometers a second. Now. again, the old question arises, Are the particles from the electrode or from the charged surface generally, including the case of an external electrode, projected through the glass or aluminium walls, or do they merely hit the inner surface and cause particles from the outside of the wall to fly off, acting in a purely mechanical way, as when a row of ivory balls is siruck? So far most of the phenomena indicate that they are projected through the wall of the bulb, of whatever material it may be, and I am seeking for still more conclusive evidence in this direction. It is now demonstrated beyond any doubt that small metallic objects or bony or chalky deposits can be infallibly detected in any part of the body."

Tesla has also secured radiographs showing the bony structure of birds and rabbits, even to tho hollow of the n%s. I JHe has secured a radiograph of a rabbit after an hour's exposure in which not only every detail of the skeleton is visible, but also a clear outline of the abdominal cavity, the lungs and the fur. Radiographs of large birds show the feathers distinctly. In another instance an exposure of 40 minutes gave a radiograph of the human skull, showing clearly not only the outline but the cavities of the eye, chin, cheek, nasal bones, the lower jaw and connections to tbe skull, the flesh and even the hair. Mr. Tesla concludes his communication as follows: "By exposing the bead to a powerful radiation strange effects have been noted. For instance, I find that there is a tendency to sleep, and the time seems to pass away quickly. There is a general soothing effect, and I have felt a sensation of warmth in the upper part of the head. An assistant independently confirmed the tendency to sleep and the quick lapse of time. Should these remarkable effects be verified by men with keener senses of observation, I shall still more firmly believe in the existence of material streams penetrating the skull. Thus it may be possible by these strange appliances to project a suitable chemical into any part of the body. "Roentgen advanced modestly his results, warning against too much hope. Fortunately his apprehensions were groundless, for, although we have to all appearance to deal with mere shadow projections, the possibilities of tbe appfi cation of this discovery are vast."— New York Sun.

TO TEST DIAMONDS.

The Rays Pick Out the False Ones Every Time.

Professors Anderson and Wells are scoring new triumphs in their experiments with rays at the Kentucky State college. Their latest experiments have been with diamonds.

Mr. Victor Bogaert took a tray of jewels out to the college Friday night for a test. He mixed specimens of quartz, glass, rhiuestones, etc., among the diamonds, and the rays picked out the genuine stones every time. When a diamond is exposed to these rays, no shadowgraph is formed, as they penetrate tbe genuine stone, but tbe false article shows quite a distinct shadow. —Cincinnati Enquirer.

Alls Mot to Race Again.

Monroe Salisbury's horses, including the champion mare Alix, concerning the sale of which an erroneous report was published recently, were shipped the other morning, the understanding being that their destination is Freeport, Ills., the home of the noted trainer M. E. McHeury. It is not probable that the trotting queen will be seen again in racing form, and Azote, the gelding champion, is also under suspicion as to his

RELIGION WHEELS.

by Rail to Heat ."Syn

dicate" Wilson.

Perhaps the first Sunday excursion ever Ihn by a Methodist church was that which recently ran over the railroad from Albany, with a thousand passengers, to hear the Rev. "Syndicate" Wilson preach the gospel and to help drive satan out of Glouster, O.

Two months ago this evangelist, unknown, a Methodist circuit rider from a backwoods charge, came down the Hocking valley from Coolville and preached in the schoolhouses by the way. At the crossing of the country roads he put up big plain lettered placards that read:

•IT IS TIME TO REMEMBER YOUR SINS.:

"Syndicate" Wilson's congregation exceeded the capacity of the room at his command. Sunday had been set aside as "old soldiers' day."

Before sunrise the people were coming over the hills to the grea* gathering. The Methodists at Albany chartered a train, but members of all tbe other denominations went on it. So did the band. The pastor of tbe Methodist church here, the Rev. J. Atkinson, a fine speaker, rode horseback with "Syndicate" Wilson and mat the Albany excursion.

Two thousand of Glouster's population, a thousand from Albany and a hundred from tbe villages of Sunday Creek valley, filled the streets. There were "halleluiahs!" and shouts of happiness, and after the churches were filled the evangelists talked to a vast crowd in the public square.

At noon the band led the procession, and all the ministers in town walked just behind it. Next were 150 old soldiers of the cross—some lame and all bent. Still farther back were the ribbon wearing clubs and in the rear many hundreds in solid ranks. Choirs sang always happy songs, and the band, every member of which has joined the church, played only sacred music. "Syndicate" Wilson says he is a representative of a kingdom that wants emigrants from earth and offers inducements that cannot be duplicated—an everlasling life, freedom from all pain and sorrow, eternal joy, a home in paradise. "Form a syndicate to secure an everlasting home in Cod's heaven!" ifhis chief plea.

Probably such scenes were never witnessed before. This uniquo religion.4 parade will, it is believed, destroy the evils of Sunday Creek valley and give untold hundreds a home in heaven.— New York Recorder.

A BATTLE ABBEY.

Sout'h3rners

to Krect a Museum at the National Capital.

At a meeting of Confederate veteran? in Washington tho other evening stepswere taken toward securing the location of the Confederate isattie abbey at the national capital.

The proposed battle abbey will be on a colossal scale and will in all probability involve an expenditure of £700,000 or more. It is the wish of tho Confederate Veterans' association to secure its local ion in Washington, not only as a southern memorial building, but as one of national importance and un especially attractive and ornamental feature of the city. The work of promoting the endeavor will be ably assisted by the Ladies' Southern Relief society.

Steps are being taken to organize a committee of 50, embracing members oi the two associations and a number oi prominent men and women outside of the associations. A committee, composed of one member from each state and one from the District of Columbia, was appointed at the last grand encampment of the United Veterans to decide upon the location of the memorial building, and this committee will do so at the coming annual encampment, to be held in Richmond in June next.

The committee of promotion in Washington, to be formed through the movement inaugurated at the recent meeting, will solicit subscriptions, to be devoted toward the erection of the building ii located in Washington. The general fund, collected through the southern camps, amounts already, it is said, tc over $200,000.—St. Louis Globe-Demo-crat.

IT GIVES POLICEMEN FITS.

A Toy Which Makes New York Policeinec Tliiuk of Commissioner Koosevelt.

An ingenious man who gets up articles for street fakirs has just applied at Washington for a patent on a toy that consists only of an oval piece of tin painted to represent a set of large whiteteeth between a pair of red, healthy lips. A tin whistle attached to the baci enables the wearer tq hold it between his own teeth.

Excise Inspector Hirshkind of New York walked into the West Thirtieth Street station house the other night with one of the i.oys in his mouth and a pait of gold riuimcd glasses on his nose. Sergeant Shire took one look at the glasses and the grinning teeth and nearly fell off his chair.

Hirshkind know$ when a joke hai gone far enough, and he removed the false mouth just as Shire was collapsing.

There will be 10,000 of the tin mouthpieces on tli'i market in a few days, and each one is warranted to scare a policeman into fits.—New York World.

A Bullet Proof Boy.

A boy with a bullet hole through his brain is living and rapidly recovering at Anderson, Ind. The boy is 6 years old and was accidentally shot about two weeks ago. Tho bullet passed through his brain, aud fir some days after the brain could be seen with a glass. The boy's limbs were paralyzed at first, and the doctors expected he would surely die. But he rallied and a week ago had recovered full possession of hid senses and also uf the use of his limbs. Doctors wp juuoh interacted in tbe case.
