Y V h \ arc a l l railroads luilit on t h e standard jrauje of foitr feet eight and one-half in Pes? The makers of the first locomotives thought only <>f put ting their machines upon the tram­ ways already in existence, and from that followed a very Interesting and curious result. These tram lines natu­ rally had exactly the width prescribed by the strength of one horse. By mere Inertia the horse enrt gauge estab­ lished Itself in the world, and every­ where the train is dwarfed to a scale that limits alike Its comfort, power and speed. Hecause there Is so much capital eniraeed and because of the dead j>ower of custom It Is doubtful if there will ever be any change In this gauge. Still, it might be worse. If the blgirest horses had been Shetland po­ nies our railway carriages now would only be wide enough to hold twTo per­ sons side by side and would have a maximum Npeed of twenty miles an hour There js hardly a reason aside from this antiquated horse why the railway coach should not be nine or ten feet wide--that is, the width of the smallest room in which people can live In comfort and furnished with all the equipment of comfortable cham­ bers.--Atlantic. Thiers as a Prompter. Among the anecdotes related by the Marquis Massa In his "Souvenirs et Impressions" Is one about the first president of the French republic. It runs: "A short time after young Thiers had been elected as a legislator a num­ ber of our set arranged to give a per­ formance of 'Roman ehez la portiere' at the house of a mutual friend. On the evening of the performance our prompter deserted us, and without a moment's hesitation the new fledged deputy volunteered to take the place, and despite the protests of some of the party, who feared that his dignity might be everlastingly injured, he Jumped Into the box, where he re­ mained ready to help us in time of need until the curtain descended on what proved to be a highly satisfac­ tory performance." Hunting With Lighted Crabs. A group of clubmen seated about an odorous cedar fire talked of hunting. "Once I hunted with lighted crabs," said an ex-consul. "It was in the des­ olate region of France called La Yen- dee. There is no hunting there but sea gulls (which the French adore to shoot) and rabbits. It was to get the rabbits that we used the crabs. We caught some dozens of small, lively fellows, fastened on their backs light­ ed candles and shoved them down Into rabbit holes. The rabbits, scared to death by those strange moving lights, rushed forth frantically--forth into the very muzzles of our guns. This sounds rather frisky perhaps, but it is a Vendcnn custom as widespread as coon hunting In the south."--Cln dnnatl Fi.quirer. Grant and Sumner. Concerning the reliability of things In print, it is reca lied that Charles Rumner criticised General Grant sav­ agely. ;i!id some time after some one was talking to Grant about atheism in New Iji -land and remarked, "Even Runnier does not believe In the Bible."

"I don't mind getting up here," he said, "but I am always afraid for the fellow be- I neath inc. Night before last the upper berth fell with me and broke the hip and shoulder of the man below. But it's not my fault; I do the best I can to get a lower. Poor chap, I guess he's asleep and will never know what hit him." "Hold on." 1 cried. "I'll be hanged if I want to lie tinder a dead fall." "1 beg your pardon. Did you say something V" "You are right. I said something. I'm not going to run the risk of stay­ ing here. You take this berth aud let me get up there." "Oh. don't let me dispossess you. Stay right where you are; it may not fall--sornet imes doesn't." "Sometimes doesn't! Here, let me get up there."

T h e f o l l o w i n g a p p e a l f r o m India re celved by tile lord mayor is printed in the city Pressr "May It please your lordship that I am very Indian, and I belong to the Brahman cjiste. Owing to my pover­ ty and unhealthiuess I cannot earn money by any profession. Including me, there are eight members in my large, poor and pitiable family--my paternal grandmother, my maternal grandmother, my mother, my aunt, myself, my wife, my first daughter, my second daughter. Moreover, I must perform marriage for my two daughters. "So if I have at least £2,000 as a capital for my large, poor and pitiable family I can invest this amount in the safest bank and I can maintain my large, poor and pitiable family by the Interest on this capital. So I must humbly request your lordship to re­ gard me as your lordship's own son and send me at least £2,000 at your lordship's earliest convenience. I am in earnest. I am in earnest. I am In earnest."--Loudon Standard. In a Strange Land. Two belated disciples of Bacchus staggered arm in arm up Walnut street about 3 o'clock the othar morn­ ing. The street was dark except for a single ground glass globe that blazed in front of an apartment house. One of the inebriates, spying this lone light, observed: "Oh, look at zhe moonsh!" The other seriously contradicted him, saying: "That ain't no moonsh; zash sun." This started an argument, which lasted for several minutes, as to wheth­ er the globe was the moon or the sun. Finally they decided to leave it to the first passerby, who happened to be an­ other "happy" gentleman. They stop­ ped him and, pointing to the globe, asked: "Settle an argument, old pal. Is that the moon or the sun?" The third party stared knowingly at the globe for several minutes before he shook his head and replied: "Gentlemen, I really couldn't tell you. I'm a stranger in this town."-- Philadelphia Itecord. If Silicon Were a Gas. Whistler at West Point seems to have had a sort of subconscious knowl­ edge of his destiny, and this gave him an utter indifference to everything not consonant with it. Here he was a fail­ ure. A direct statement in a class rec­ itation that "silicon is a gas" discour­ aged his chemical instructor and was one of the final blows to his military career. As Whistler says himself, If silicon had only been a gas he might have become a major general. But the fates were against it. Country Folk Are Tender With Birds. Real country folk are very tender In their dealings with the birds that live near them. In the course of my ex­ perience, extending over many years, I have never known a case of wanton cruelty occur In regard to wild birds.

Of these none is more friendly than the robin, which is sure to appear, however lonely the place. -- Cornhlll Magazine. Force of Habit.

In America the magnet has come rather extensively into use in the han­ dling of iron and steel castings. Sus­ pended from a locomotive crane, it can also be used for collecting scraps of metal from floors and yards. Large amounts are said to be saved lu this way. And as the magnet moves over the ground it may bring to light pieces which have mysteriously disappeared --concealed, it may be, by employees to hide blunders In their work. Some years ago in England the magnet was found useful In a somewhat similar way In the detection of fraud. Manu­ facturers of bone manure found that they were buying old Iron along with the bones. Collectors found that it was profitable to insert bits of old metal in the larger bones and thus in­ crease the weight. So the manufac­ turers provided themselves with a powerful magnetic apparatus under which all the bones were passed be fore being weighed. As the bones were slid along a broad groove a large one would suddenly jump up and cling to the wall where the magnet was concealed. On examination It would be found to contain perhaps a rusty old poker In place of marrow.-- London Globe. Carving a Hippopotamus. To cut up a hippopotamus is no easy task. In some places the hide is al­ most two and a half inches thick, and before you have got through a hand's breadth your knife has completely lost Its edge and requires to be resharp- ened. The head and the feet are put on one side to be preserved as trophies of the chase, while the remainder of the flesh is cut into long, thin strips, which, after they have been dried by hanging them on the tree branches, will keep good for a very long time. The ivory of the teeth and tusks, which is of very fine quality, used to be employed almost exclusively In the manufacture of false teeth. Nowa­ days. says the Wide World Magazine. It is turned to all the purposes of ordi­ nary Ivo^. As for the hide, cut into strips it Is made into sticks, which are as good defensive weapons as one could wish to possess. Treated with oil, they become transparent as tortoise shell and look quite pretty. Out of hippopotamus hide bullock drivers likewise make thongs for their whips which are positively everlasting and fetch relatively speaking quite a good price. A Squid In Hawaii. In discovering the failings or eccen­ tricities of a person Hawaiians not only show perspicacity, but an aptness In applying a nickname to the one possessing such characteristics. The politic-Ian who changes his faith too often 1s called a squid (octopus). One species of this animal Is caught by the aid of a torchlight In shallow water. While a bag net is held some distance In front of It, so that It can conven­ iently run Into It and be caught, It Is prodded behind by the fisherman's foot. Sometimes the squid will go dl rectly into the trap, but often it will run forward, with every Indication of being enmeshed, to a point within two feet of the net, when It will suddenly turn about and go back to Its starting place. Then It Is likely to describe a right, left or oblique angle, always contrary to the fisherman's desire. So In Hawaiian metaphor the politician or candidate who switches from the straight track is a squid.--"Paradise of the Pacific." The 8wafrham Tinker and His Dog. Two quaint figures are carved on the two top pews and reading desk of Swaffbam • church. According to leg­ end, a tinker had a dream bidding him go to London bridge and a stranger would reveal to him how to find a pot of money. So ofT he went with his dog, and at the bridge a stranger stopped him, saying, "Ijist night I had a dream bidding me go to Swaffham and dig In such and «uch a place and there find a pot of money, but I don't believe in dreams." Then back went the tinker, dug for and found the pot as described and also an Inscription bidding him dig deeper, which he did, and found another, and with them re­ stored Swaffham church. The carv­ ings were put up to perpetuate bis memory.--London Strand. The Interview. As used nowadays by the newspa­ pers the word interview is said to have been the invention of Joseph McCul- lagh of St. Louis, and, according to the Encyclopaedia Brltannlca, it became popular in England In the early nine­ ties. But it was known before that. A writer on the- subject In the Nation of 18G9 was possibly the first to use the word Ln Its present sense of a talk with a representative of the press.-- Chicago News.

Olson has been making on Speaker Shartleff • whose defeat he seeks, to gratify the animosity of Governor Deneen, Mr. OU OQ is now getting much the worst of it. The Woodstock state senator has made great pretensions as being an especial servant of the dairy interests of this dls* trict, his promises two years ago, and his speeches from various platforms in Mc- Henry and Boone counties in the present campaign witnessing his strong claims as to his work for the dairymen. Mr. Shurtleff has turned the tables on Mr. Olson, who did not know when ho started in this campaign that a drastic bill had passed the state senate of which Mr, Olson was a member. The bill in question was known as senate bill No. 488 aud was introduced by State Senator John Humphrey of Chicago. It was a measure that would compel all dairymen to have their cows submitted to a tuberculin test. This bill, if enacted into a law, would bring much hardship on dairymen, for it did not carry any provision to pay those who might have cows slaughtered, ex­ cept what the carcasses of the animals killed would bring. The bill passed the senate by forty one senators voting for it and not a single senator voting against it. Mr. Olson was either present and did not vote or else he was not attending to his duty as a representative of the dairymen. When Mr. Oisou commenced his present job of naming a congressman, a mem­ ber of the legislature and a full set of county officers in McHenry comity he stat od from various platforms where ho rpoke of how he had tlmmu Dr. Evau*, Chi­ cago health officer, out of his committee room at Hpringfiuld and how he had carried around in his pocket a tuberculin te»t.ing bill which Dr. Evans wanted passed. As chairman of the live stock and dairy committee Mr. Olson gave a graphic account of how he had routed the Chicago health officer and of other feats of prowess he had performed while saving the dairymen from havings tuberculin testing law Baddled upon them. As proof of how he carried the bill around in his pocket and wonld not let his committee consider the measure. Mr Olson has stated that any person doubting his word may write to Dr. Wright, the state veterinarian, and see if what he says is uo* trne. Mr. Olson continually refers to Dr. Wright, state veterinarian, to corroborate what he claims of per mitting senate bill 438 to pass the s«uate "in order to please Dr. Wright," as Mr. Olson puts it. Now this same Dr Wright, state veterinarian, after the close of the legislature fourteen months ago, through the state board of live stock commissioners and for the purpose of aiding and assisting Dr Evans of Chicago, caQsed an order to be issued, making it imperative that all dairy cows in the state of Illinois must be tested by tnbeicnliu before th^ir milk could be sold upon the market. The order thus promulgated provided that all cows that re-acted shonld and must have the letter "T" punched on their ears to show that they were diseased' and only cows that did not re-act could furnish milk for sale. After this drastio order became known Speaker Shurtleff went personally to the chairman of the state board of live stock commissioners, Phil Hainer, at Springfield and showed Mr. Hainer the injustice and illegality of the order and how it would get the state board into trouble. After a full and complete discussion of the subject Mr. Hainer said that the state board of live stock commissioners never made any such order as a board, but that Dr. Wright, state veterinarian, himself made the order as a matter per­ sonal to himself. Mr. Hainer also told Mr. Shurtleff that Dr. Wright asked the board if they had any objection and that the board told Dr. Wright, that if the board was not involved in any way, to go ahead and do it, but that the board would not stand back of it Mr. Shurtleff explained to Mr Hainer how the state board, of which Mr. Hainer was chairman, was responsible for the permission granted to Dr Wright. After some discussion Mr. Hainer agreed with Mr Shurtleff's presentation of the matter and Mr. Hainer said that h* wonld see that Dr. Wright stopped the work he had started on. And it was stopped through the part Mr. Shurtleff took in the matter. Dr. Wright, state veterinarian, and A. J. Olson, state senator, are close friends accordiug to the latter, and it is evident that such is true, for Mr. Olson has ob­ tained jobs for some of his friends from Dr. Wright, one of the places being an appointment in McHenry county under Dr. Wright as assistant state veterinar­ ian. Olson and Dr. Wright are close friends. Dr. Wright stands for Dr. Evans' ex- Kctions in the way of legislation be wants at Springfield, and the legislation that Dr. Evans wants is at the expense of northern Illinois dairymen. Dairymen of this legislative district shonld not be fooled by claptrap on the part of Mr. Olson, who is continually telling of what he has donfe and is going to do for the dairymen as their representative at Springfield. His negligence in permitting senate bill 438 to pass the senate and his ignorance in not knowing that such a measure ever passed until almost a year after it was printed in the Senate Journal is sufficient to indicate his knowledge of legislation at the state capital, and his insipid explanation of how the bill passed the senate are un­ worthy to be presented by a school boy. Voters are asked to bear in mind that A. J. Olson, state senator, is one of the two men who are paying the campaign expenses of J. H. Vickers of Harvard as the candidate for the legislature to deleat Speaker Shurtleff. Mr. Vickers is not a candidate of his own volition, but at the behest of Olson, who represents Gov­ ernor Deneen, so that you are called on to make a choice between Mr. Shurtleff and Mr. Vickers, the line of battle being squarely drawn betweeu Shurtleff and Vickers. ***10 0** JtSt! fNDU' BOND GUARANTEE IfeCKEI) INSIDE EACH ROLL Op JVf-VER Congo is the only Ready*Roof- tng carrying the National Surety Co.'ibond.
