Some of our Southern Democratic
exchanges are plastering Mr.. Garfield
over with fulsOmc compliments.
Really there is nothing to be gained
Inv il. and if there were it would he at
a sad sacrifice of dignity. Every
Democrat.and nine tenths OF the ke'
publicans know that Mr.. GARFIELD,
while Intellectually a man Of power, Is
i'm all the essential Clements Of man
hood exceedingly weak. This opinion
i based on his legislative career ami
is not a party opinion. IL he possesses
n reserved force, a power and a rcsolu-
tion. not indicated in part Of his past,
if will be time enough to recognize II

4 WOMAN ON THE TRACK.
why the Overland Express was Stop
ped at Alameda.
San Francisco Post.

AS the Overland Express was snort
ing through Alameda yesterday on its
way to New York, the engineer sud-
denly whistled down Brakes, the con-
ductor irantically shouted and jerked
the signal line, and with many Il jar
and squeak. the long line Of cars
was brought to stop. The cause of
this "sudden fetch up" was Il fat old
woman with red face and green
parasoI, who had planted herself
squarely in front of the engine and
was making the most frantic signals
for it to pause.
What's the matter? Anything on
the track ?" said the cngenccr, eXcit-
edly.
"Nothing but me-" said the old
lady, stillly.
elias there been Il smash-up? Is
thcre---thcrc Il bridge opcn?"
"Don't poke fun at me young man.
| want to see the proprietor"
"Thc WHAT"
"The man who runs this thing the
captain, or whatever you call him."
What do you want with the con-
ductor?
"Nonc of your business. want to
see the head man--the boss-and to
onct.n
"Well, Manu." said that function
ary, running up, watch in hand, "What
is up? What can do for YOU"
You go through hicago, don't
YOU" a,
"Why, of course, what of ?"
"Know my son Bill-BiIl Skindcr-
son, there ?"
"No. For heavens sake get Off the
track, you old"
Don't sass Inc, you red nosed COR
rilla, or I'll inform on you. Denry me,
| thought everybody knew my boy
Bill--prominent man thCrc-runS the
biggest fruit stand in town and hands
off, YOU rascal Don't dare to touch
me. I'll move when Pm good and
ready"
"WelI, blank your blanknation eyes
hurry up. What do you want ?"
ooh Thought you'd change your
tune. Wei, | wish you'd stop over II
day or two at Chicago and look up
Bill, and tell him that little Maria and
James iaLdce have kinder worked
roun' into fits and there's more hopes.
She's sOrter-"
"Start her up, jimmy" yelled the
lo,lrious conductor; and if the old
lady hadn't hustled up her skirts and
bumped herself, she would have had
a first class case against the company
for damages. After that she stood ap-
poplectic with rage, shaking her par
asol at the disappearing train, and an
nouncing her determination togo right
over land see Governor Standard the
very minute the dishes were washed"

Sheep Raising in New Mexico.

but Mexcans, Germans, French. in fact,
men of all nationalities are engaged in it,
with success as various as their capacity.
1t is growing to be favorite investment
with Eastern people to put share of sur
plus earnings into sheep, and they draw, as
result fine percentage of profit. Mr..
G. ID. W. Dunlap, of Los Ojitos 2. O., San
Miguel County, New Mexico, while recent
ly in New York, gave his experience to a
gentleman of our acquaintance in another
and very important matter to every one
placed as he was He observed: For years

form of rheumatism. / have never been
able to secure relief from any of the So
called specifics, until obtained st. Jacobs

suits in alleviating the pain. ! take great
pleasure in commencing it to public favor.
From the above it will appear that this
wonderful specific is not only adopted into
household use, but it even holds warm
place in the hearts of those who live, as it
were, with no other protection than the
broad canopy of heaven. 1td&w

Banquet Invitations.

Inquiries reach US daily as to who gives
ths invitations to the people South to at
esDd the great excursion coming to Cincin-
Sati over the Southern Railroad and to the
banquet to be held at the Music Hall by
sur citizens in honor of these guests. We
harm on inquiry that the Committee
h charge have ascertained by actual meas
uyement the seating capacity Of the hall,
snd notified the agents Of the railroads
sunnecting with the Southern Road how
many guests they are prepared to enter
thin from each road. These roads through
their agents accordingly distribute their
svn invitation to the number they are thus
allotted, and the Southern Rsilroad grants
= such designated persons round-trip
tnkets TO Cincinnati and return.
connecting lines Of railroads are intended
b be based, so far as possible to ascertain,
upon the population Of the cities and
towns accessible to Cincinnati trade, and
the Committee desire, 80 far as practicable,
10 treat each section fairly. Doubtless
SAsrs will be many disappointments, as
there are probably 20, 600 business men who
srs equally entitled to the courtesy, and
lAO00 OF these must be passed by in the
distribution of the invitations. We learn
that considerable number of Chattanooga
business men will be among the number ol
sxcunionists. The seating capacity of the
Hall has been found to be at most 1,S00
end the invitations must be limited to that
nuMber, although 1t was hoped at one
time TO entertain as many a. 2,4O0 guests
