The Stampede In Missouri. The recent Missouri convention is causing great grief to the conservative democratic leaders there and to their allies in the east. The eastern managers said, in effect, that if Missouri, which had made an idol of "Silver Dick" Bland and given birth to the Kansas City platform,' would only take a conservative stand it would be easy to convince the east that the sacred ratio would be left to the dead past. The conservative Missouri leaders were willing to oblige their eastern friends. Governor Dockery has been laboring patiently to convince his par ty that the crime of '73 should not be disinterred from its lonely grave. The Hon. William J, Stone was supposed to be pursuing the same object in his mysterious petegri nations. But the practical politicians of the Missouri democracy forgot David Ball of Pike. What happened because of Mr. Ball Is best described in the words of the tale which a disgusted Missouri demoerat poured into the sympathizing ears of Secretary Edwards of the dem ocratic congressional committee in Washington on Wednesday. Here is his description of the catastrophe: "Dave Ball of Pike, has certainly spilled the fat in the tire. It was not in the cards at all to have an indorse ment of 16 to 1. The leaders desired to have the heaven-born ratio kept in the background, as the democrats did in Georgia and Illinois. The idea was to keep our long-horns out of sight, so as not to scare the gold democrats of the east. "But along comes this Dave Ball, romping Into the convention with a Pike county war whoop, and rallies all the free silver long-horns to a rousing declaration for 16 to 1. We never have any luck. There must always be j some fellow lying around in the tall grass, who comes out at the most inopportune moment, waving his sombrero and Happing his hands until he stampedes the whole drove." Root's Advice to the Parmer. There is a good story being told regarding Secretary of War Root, who is in New York looking to send ' his family to Europe. The secretary was on his way to Southampton recently when a farmer edged into the seat ard began telling the Cabinet member how to run the government. When the citizen's supply o f criticisms began to run low, Mr. Root asked: "What is your occupation?" "Poultry farmer," was the reply. "Do you know how many eggs each of your hens lays?" "Why, no," confessed the man. "Well, the man who looks after my chickens' knows how much work each hen does. If he didn't I'd discharge him for not knowing his business. If a hen doesn't produce fifteen eggs a month it's a loss to keep it. Now, my friend, doesn't it strike you that after you have learned your own business so well that I can't give you points on it, then would be the proper time for you to come and teach me how the government ought to be run?" Were Intoxicated. Three girls and a man from Plymouth arrived in Culver Sunday by the overland route. Thy undoubtedly came here for a good time, for two. of the girls, whowere evidently in their "teens," became beastly intoxicated, and in that condition made a disgusting show of themselves. But then, they were in Culver, where everything goes and no questions asked. --Culver nerald. Open Your Cellar. The state board of health is seeking to Impress upon all householders the necessity of airing cellars at this time." The copious rainfall of the summer lenders this precaution more than usually imperative. In some cases it may unnecessary to keep fire in the cellars for a short time, to dry the walls; in others, opening the windows so as to provide thorough ventilation will be sufficient. '

This work is no narrow chronicle, but it supplies a scientific and philosophic basis for the study of American history in its widest relations. It is very difficult for the most superficial reader to lay aslda these volumes with their wealtn of lnformrtlon. and yet more difficult to conceive the immense discrimination and labor that went to the making of them," (From Rev. Frank L. Phalen.J 0 ."Worcester, Mass.. Feb. 4, 1902. . "There are many books, and even a number of pretentious works of an encyclopaedic style, which no thoughtful or conscientious minister of religion could recommend ; but after an examination of this great historical thesaurus we feel that we are rendering a benefit to our friends by directing their attention to the usefulness, the completeness, the literary charm and the permanent value of this thoroughly popular and strikingly contemporaneous series of volumes on the history of our mighty republic.
