Pledged the Whole Vote.

It is related of a certain candidate for office in the last Kansas cainptflgn that he billed himself for a speech In a Southern Kansas town, on, a certain October day, and wrote ahead to a number of friends to give him “tips.” One of them says the Mobile Register, told him to see a certain colored man upon his arrival In the town. “If you can get the vote of this negro,’’ wrote the friend, “you can get the vote of the whole negro population in this town. Don’t fail to see him and get him to your way of thinking.” About the first thing the candidate did after registering at the hotel was to look up this negro. It was only a little while after the introduction that he was calling the negro by his given name, filling his pockets with cigars, passing him compliments and generally “giving Mm the tafify/’The negro took it all and enjoyed the occasion immensely. The candidate spent several hours in the negro’s company, and after he thought the proper degree of warmth had been obtained, broached the real object of his friendship: “Say, John, I want the negro vote of this town.” “All right,” replied John, “I’ll vote fo’ you, sah. “I’ll vote fo’ you. I’m fo’ you, sah.” “Thats all right,” said the candidate. “That’s all right. I’m sure you will. I’m sure you will. But I want to have the whole negro vote of this town. I want to get all.” “Dat’s all right,” responded the negro, “I done said I’d vote fo’ you. I’m. yo’ friend. 11l suttinly cast my vote fo’ you.” “But, say, John, I know that,” said the candidate. “See here, I’ll be frank. The fellows told me that you are a big man among the colored folks down here, and that If I got your vote I’ll get the whole negro vote In this place. Do you catch on?’’ “Sho’,” replied John. “Sho’ I do. You’ll git de whole niggah vote, all right. Dey don’t be trouble ’bout dat, sah. Yo’ see, I’m de only niggah in dis here whole town.”

A Disappointment.

For weeks and weeks he had been suspicious of his wife, buit for weeks and weeks he had carried a smiling face and held her on his knee as if he believed in her as he did in his holy grandmother. All things come to the husband who waits and there came an evening when a district messenger boy delivered a letter into the wife’s hand. The crafty husband was hunting for a collar button at the moment, but he was not deceived. His first impulse was to rush upon the faithless wife and brain her or at least break her neck, but he got a grip on himself and waited for a more complete vengeance. At midnight that night, after pretending sleep for two hours and after making sure that the wife really slumbered, the husband crept out of bed’to go through her dress and secure the letter. He moved inch by inch. He held his breath. Goose pimples formed on his legs. It took him 37 minutes by the clock to find her pocket, but he persevered, and’ the damming epistle was at last in his hands. In his heart he was vowing to show no mercy, to cut her up with a dull hatchet inch by inch, when he suddenly beard her voice saying: “I was going to pay it out of my own pin money, John, but lit be awfhlly glad to have you take it off my hands! ” “Woman, what means this?” he shouted as he tore the letter from its envelope. “It means a bill of sl4 for my last new hat, as you will see. Get into bed, dear, before you have a congestive chill!’’—LaCrosse Chronicle.

Were Baptized in Platoons.

One of the zealous chaplains of the army of the Potomac, says the Louisville Journal, called on a colonel noted for Ills profanity in order to talk about the religious interests of Ms men. He was politely received and beckoned to a seat on a chest. “Colonel,” said he, “you have one of the finest regiments in the army.” “I think so,” replied the colonel. “Do you think you pay sufficient attention to the religious instruction of your men?” “Well, I don’t know,” replied the colonel. “A lively interest has been awakened in the regiment. The Lord has blessed the labors of his servants, and ten men already have been baptized.” (This was a rival regiment.) “Is that so, ’pon honor?” asked the oolonel. “Yes, sir.’’ “Sergeant,” said the colonel to an attending orderly, “have fifteen men detailed immediately to be baptized. I’ll be d —d if PH be outdone in any respect.” The chaplain took note of the interview and withdrew.

His One Regret.

Passenger (as the ship is sinking)— Captain, is there no hope— no hope whatever? Captain—None at all, my man; no hope at all’. Passenger—Confound the luck! And I wouldn’t eat any cucumbers for dinner because I was afraid of lhdlgestlon!” Bride—Dearest, Towser has eaten the supper I cooked for you with mjr own hands. Hubby—Never mind, sweetheart. I’ll get you another dog.

I have bought three car loads at this writing and if the trade is as good as last season (and I think it will be better) I will need another car or two. I have the agency for nothing but FIRST CLASS FIRM’S GOODS. The latest styles of auto seats and of other designs of high class, all work made up by expert workmen and no Job is misrepresented; nothing but a guaranteed work is bought or sold.

Life 100,000 Years Ago.

Scientists have found in a cave in Switzerland bones of men, who lived 100,000 years ago, when life was in constant danger from wild beasts. Today the danger, as shown by A. W. Brown, of Alexander, Me., is largely from deadly disease. “If it had not been for Dr. King's New Discovery, which cured me, I could not have lived," he writes, “suffering as I did from a severe lung trouble and stubborn cough.” To cure Sore Lungs, Colas, obstinate Coughs, and prevent Pneumonia, its the best medicine on earth. 50c and SI.OO. Guaranteed by A. F. Long. Trial bottle free. Miscreants dynamited the Myers ice pond, in the heart of Columbic* City and hundreds of pike, bass and bluegills were slaughtered.

A Night Rider’s Raid.

The worst night riders are calomel, croton oil or aloes pills. They raid your bed to rob you of rest Not so with Dr. King’s New Life Pills. They never distress or inconvenience, but always cleanse the system, curing Colds, Headache, Constipation, Malaria, 26c at A. F. Long's.
