Among other things in favor of
the removal of the National Capt.
tai to the Mississippi Valley, the
Cleveland Leader says:
But there are excellent reasons
for the change suggested. The
first and most obvious one is the
necessity of having the capital near
the center of the nation-a neces-
sity all the more obvious from the
fact that the country is SO vast in
its present proportions. The geo
graphical center Of the country is
hundreds of miles west of the Mis-
sissippi; the center of population is
all the time migrating westward,
and has already reached that valley.
The rights of the whole country to
equal access to the capital demand
it's location in an accessible and
central position.
Again, Washington in it's present
position is exposed to sudden at
tack and capture in event of a war
with any foreign powers. It was
so attacked and captured in 1912,
and it was in frequent danger du-
ring our recent war. Our capital
ought not to be exposed to such
dangers.
Again, the atmosphere of Wash
ington is very unhealthy, and be-
comes in the summer very hot and
oppressive. It is peculiarly so to
representatives from the middle
and northern States, so much so
that the public business, in the lat
ter half of each long session, is very
often made to suffer, in the impa
tience of members to escape from
confinement.
The only practical objection is to
the time and expense Of building up
new capitol and a new city. But
this would not be so considerable
as people are apt to fancy It
would not cost more than ten mil
lions Of dollars to transfer the pres
ent capitol to another site in the
West, and that amount would prob
ably be paid by any State to secure
the capital. As for the city, that
would take care of itself. Cities
grow in the West of their own ac-
cord, and without fertilizers. The
project will not succeed now, but
the time is coming when it will.

Lager Beer.
BY JOSH BILLINGS.

have finally cum to the conclu-
sion that lager beer as a beverage
is not Intoxicating.
I hav bin told SO by a german
who said he had drunk it all night
long, and was obliged to go home
entirely sober in the morning. !
have seen this same man drink
eighteen glasses, and if he was
drunk he was drunk in german and
nobody could understand it. It is
proper enuff to state that this man
kept lager beer saloon, and Good
hav no object in stating what was
not strictly thus.
l believed him to the full extent
Of my ability. I never drunk but
three glasses ov lager in mi life,
and that made mi he'd ontwist as
tho it was hung on the end of a
string, but I was told that it was
OWN to my bile bein ous of order ;
and I guess that it was so, for
never billed over wus than 1 did
when got hum that mite. Mi wife
thot I was goin tew die, and l was
afraid that l shouldn't, for it seem
ed as though everything I had ever
eaten in my life waz cummin tew
the surface; and I believe that if my
wife hadn't pulled off my boots jest
as she did tina would hav cum thun-
derin up too.
o! how sick wuz! ii years ago,
and can taste it now.
never had so much experience
in so short time.
If emmy man shud tell me that
larger beer wuz not Intoxicating
shud believe him; but if he shud
tell that wuzn't drunk that mite,
but that my stummick was out of
order, i7shud ask him to state over
q few words, jest how a man felt
and acted when he was set up.
If want drunk that mite, had
some of the most material simtums
that man ever had and kept sober.
In the first place it was about 80
rod from where dronk the lager
beer to mi house, and was jes over
two hours on the road, and had a
hole busted through each one of
my pantaloon neez, and didn't have
any hat, and tried to open the door
by the bell pull, and hiccupped aw-
fully, and saw everything in the
room trying to get round on the
back side of me; and in setting
down on a chair, didn't wait long
enough for it to get exactly under
me when it was going round, and i
set down little to soon and missed
the chair about twelve inches, and
couldn't get up soon enough to take
the next one that come along; and
that amt awl; my wife said wuz
drunk az a beast, and, az said be
FORE I began to spin up things
freely.
If larger beer is not Intoxicating,
it used me most almighty mean,
that i know
Still hardly think that larger
beer is Intoxicating, for hav ben
told so; and am probably the only
man living who ever drank emmy
when his liver was not plumb.
l don't want to say anything agin
a harmless temperance bevridge,
but if ever drink any more, it will
be with mi hands tied behind me,
and mi mouth pried open.
I don't think larger beer is in
toxicating, but if i remember rite, i
think it tastes to me like glass of
soap suds, that a pickle had been
put tew soak in.

Dreadful Accidental Young
Lady Cut to Pieces. sAss5

4
One Of the most dreadful acci-
dents, taking into consideration its
details, which we have been called
Iupon to record for some time, oc-
curred in this city last evening.
The circumstances of this exceed
ingiy painful affair are these: Two
young ladies, named Hiebert, yes
terday morning went riding to the
Bay, accompanied by two gentle
men, each couple having a horse
and buggy. In the evening they
returned to the city, and drove up
to Wilder street, where the young
gentlemen got out of the carriages
and went into drug store to see
friends of the party, leaving the
ladies in charge of the horses. A
gentleman friend came along about
the time, and in playful manner
stepped into one of the buggies and
drove off. The other young lady,
who was alone, undertook to fol
low them, and, just as she was dri-
wing toward the Brown street cross
ing of the New York Central rail-
road, the New York express train,
which leaves this city at 80 was
going west, and the horse becom-
ing frightened and unmanageable,
while on the crossing the engine
struck the buggy, breaking it to
atoms, mangling the form of its
human occupant, and crumbling
most every bone in the body of the
animal. The sight, as related by
the few persons who witnessed the
accident, was most appalling. Along
the track for twenty-five yards or
more lay the remains. The corpse
of the young lady, with her gar
ments torn to shreds, almost every
bone broken, and her body cut to
pieces, was thrown on one side of
the track The horse lay at some
distance with his legs cut off and
dead. The buggy, or rather its
wreck, was in another place. Per-
sons gathered around and conveyed
the mangled remains of the girl to
her parents house on Francis street,
not ten rods from the place where
she lost her life. Her name is So
phia Heibert, and she and her sis
ter live with their step-father, whose
name is La Bur. The deceased is
twenty five years of age. It is said
the same girl narrowly escaped be-
ing killed at the North street cross
ing yesterday.-Rochester Demo

making an effort to draw the charge.
The boys one holding the butt end
of the gun, the other the ramrod,
endeavored to draw it out, when
one of them slipped, and the gun
was discharged, driving the ramrod
through the body of the boy who
was holding it, killing him almost

Notwithstanding the general belief
that the President would allow the
bill for the admission of Arkansas
to become law without his sigma
ture, he, on last Saturday, returned
it to the House with a short veto,
which was about as effectual as the
bark of dog at the moon.
The House passed the bill over
the veto Immediately, and the Sen
ate did the same on Monday. So
Arkansas is admitted to the Union
with regenerated Government and
a Constitution of which all good
men may feel proud.
1t is now expected that he will
also veto the bill admitting the
other six States.
