Man Worship.
iiiimnunicifca., V, ; \'’ f _ Man is veflerative or a worshipful being. The g‘6'4s sprang into existence through this characteristic. The people must worship something. In the lash ages of 'ho world man worship has been decried; 'out stil' it is practiced, Wc are nearing eighty years and have ‘•seen presidents incumbent, aud before apd alter election we have known them “to swing round the circle” but never before have w e known such rush and parade as is made over Pres. Cleveland and “his beautiful little wife,” In every leading city, and at the way sta tions the people rush to see and get a shako of the haud. lu the loading cities where they have their grand, formal receptions every house, public or private, saloon, brewery or stable, is covered with.buntiog and flags: welcomes are freely given, and hearty aeknowl edgements returned; and all for what? If not to make Mr. Cleveland his own successor, what is it? Once riding with a gray headed Republican to a big rally: we saw the flags flying from the tops of tall poles; we asked what of all this? llj answered, “It takes the floating vote. ’ Sad nflection on popnlar elections! From tli6 big parades and ovations thus far round the circle, it would Seetti As though Heaven and tffrlh had united in one grand over IVhelmiiig “float” for Cleveland’s reelection. 'lt might have that eflect; but appearances are often delusive . That little wofllan seems to be a first premium article in many of the big shows. In sonic places the anxiety to see the woman is so great that the President seems to be a mere appendage of lump „,fat. Cleveland is a man of thought, and, though not brilliant, he has been fortunate in life, and his administration so far has given as general satisfaction as any we have had for years. Yet we do believe the time and money wasted in these grand displays would be much better appropriated, if given to relieve the suffering people of Kansas, to buy coal and other necessaries ot life. We doubt hot Mrs. Cleveland is a highly educated, amiable arid handsome woman, and, though small, may bo head and shoulders higher than Queen Victoria, Elizabeth or Esther, yet we have no doubt many of our people have and have had wives, of fully as much real Value. We "don’t believe in “man worship,” neither can we agree to woman worship; especially where the woman belongs to another man. We can tbl orate a woman’s vem ration for her own husbaud; but where she kieses him as he comes into the boat and as he goes out, in the presence of a crowd of people, jt savors a bttleof the “flat” or of diluted love ‘‘boiled down.” It is generally considered in bad taste for a woman to (gill her husband “my dear,” in company, then give him thunder and blixen behind the curtain. So goes the World. R.—, . - - .. 1 ; ~ “ "
He Thought Advertising a Humbug.
, “Its all liSmbug to talk to me of the benefits of advertising,” said a toii'r looking man; “I spent $175 last year in advertising, and I was closed out by the sheriff in January. The money was wasted, sir; every cent of it. Advertising is no good” “What papers did you advertise in ?” inquired a sympathizing bystander. : “What papers? Thunder, I didn’t use any papers. I had my •advertisements painted on fence boards.”

Shot With a Scatter Gun.
Last Saturday afternoon A. J. Foresha, foreman of the work of putting np the gas well derrick and other machinery, and Jacob Sanders, a resident carpenter who has been assisting in the above work, weqt down the river to do a little practice shooting with the former’s shotgun. Theirplan was the one familiar to all'punters, of one-man throwing an Sid tfn can iu the air and the other shooting at it. They had made a pepper box of.one can, taking turns shooting at it, and then found another can. Sanders threw it up and Foresha fired one barrel, then Sanders threw it again and just qs Foresha was raising the gun to shoot the lmlnmer came down, of itself, and the gun was discharged the charge of number seven shot struck Sanders in the legs and thighs, from a backward and partly sideways direction. The accident accured neat that part of the river called the deep hole, and" Foresha, after a little time secured help and a buggy and got Sandefs over town, where D, Bitters attended to. his injuries. Both legs are pretty thoroughly peppered, from the kuees to the thighs, there being as Dr. Bitters thinks, nearly two dozen shot in each leg. The powderchurge was light and the shot did not penetrate very deeply, although the most of them are in too far to be easily removed, owing mainly to their small size, aud they will be left where they are. The injuries though not serious nor dangerous, will lay Mr. Sanders up for a few days. They were very painful, of course, aud when the accident occurred, Mr. .Sanders at once declared he was killed entirely, and naturally, Mr. Foresha was a pretty badly frightened inan, too. As he expressed ib, hftbself, he was “ scared out of a year’s growth.”
