A Kentucky Republican has had the temerity to announoe bis candidacy for governor. The gentleman must be going into the raoe for the fun of the thing, for it is a well-known faot that Republicans don’t oount where Qoebelites do the counting.

Some philanthropic young men over in Ohio gave a wayfaring tramp a bath, a shave and a new suit of olothes. When they proceeded to burn the bobo’s disoared garments he protested and investigation showed that be had $1,400 sewed in the lining of his dilapidated ooat. Prosperty has become so prevalent during this Republican era, that you can never tell.

It now begins to look like the celebrated case of Moses Fowler Chase just finished in the Benton oircuit court, was not at an end by any means. Judge DeHart has just authorized Fred Chase to spend any reasonable sum in proseouting Mrs. Dub me, who it is alleged ha 9 made away with something like $220,000 of the demented you man’s money. The case gives promise of being a long and hotly contested one and will likely use up a big slice of the young man’s money.

Chew S TRUNG HOLD Quality the finest Tags lot each Yellow Stone National Park “The Yellowstone Park is something absolutely unique in this world, as far as I know Nowhere else in any civilized country is there to be found such a tract of veritable wonderland, made accessibly to all visitors, where at the same time not only the scenery of wilderness, but the wild creatures of the park, are scrupulously preserved.”— President Roosevelt. This delightful spot is more easily reached via the Union Pacafic than by any other line The stage ride from Mouida, by the splendid Concord coaches of the Monida & Yellowstone Stage Co., is through scenery hardly inferior to the park itself. The popular route to Yellowstone Park is now via the Union Pacific. Very low rates during June, July and August. For further information call on or address W. G. Neimybr, G.

City Dads Under Arrest.

Monticello Journal \fs~JTL g Daniel A. Gillespie and Stephen B. Boyer members of the Logansport common council, were arrested on grand jury indictmentaWedneß* day afternoon, the former charged with accepting a bribe and the latter with breaking the quorum of the Common Council. Bond was fixed in Gillespie’s case at $5,000 and in Boyer’s at $5Ol. Both savoured bail, signed loy prominent citizens. * The arrest is the culmination of the sensational traction fight of laat summer, when the MoCullooh interests defeated the so called Universal Transfer ordinance, which was to give the Boyd interests a monopoly of Loganaport streets. The Counoil meeting at which the franchise was defeated broke up in a riot, in which Boyer was s leader. Gilleapie had orig'nally voted for the franchise, but later obanged to the MoCullooh side and voted for the MoCnllooh franchise. The indictment charges that he received large sums of money and railway passes to influence his vote, but does not state the bribe giver.

A New York lawyer tolls the following good story of a darkey preacher in North Carolina, who prefaced the passing of the collection plate with: '‘Salvation’s free brethern, salvation’s free! It don’t oost nothin’, but we have to pay the freight on it. We will now pass arouu’ the bat an’ oolleot the freight charges!” It is said that a neighboring telephone line got out of fix and when a lineman went to fix it'he found in one house an old lady sitting in a ohair busily knitting while the telephone receiver was tied to the baok of the ohair in suoh a way that she could hear what was “going on.” Anybody who has listened to the conversation of about a dozen womeu over a country line, all talking at the same time, oan release what a treat the old lady was enjoying!

The Hygiene of Old Age. We look upon the aged with good reason as having a slender hold upon life, one that may be loosened by a slight shook of inju v or disease which, in the young or middle-aged, would serve only as a stimulus to the reparative vital powers. This is a conservative belief, but it was u> 8 to shielp oar loved ones who have fought the, from all influences which might shorten their stay with us. But we must not go too far in our solicitude, for injury may be inflicted and life shortened by oodd ing the old almost as surely as by coddling, the young, The vital prooesses in the 9 aged are slow, bat they are still exi tent, and they may be kept active by ge tie opposition and stimulation. just as they map be increased in childhood and youth by rough methods Dr. Caldwe I’a Syrup Pepsin and Herb Laxative Compound is a boon to the aged and infirm and probably no medicine has accomplished so much,.or reoeived as high or as- many indorsements from men and women whose extreme age gives them a seemingly slender' bold upon life. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin makes perfect digestion end ots gently upon the bowels in *n snsy sad pleasant manner. Tones up the entire system and prolongs life 500 and $1 bottles. At A. F.
