HUMAN BONES IL SOLID RoCK-Here

Louis is having a new sewer made
through solid limestone rock, twelve

substratlm Of the rock the workmen
have come upon two human feet. firmly
planted 10 the rock. The calf Of the
ieft leg can be traced, but the other foot
possesses only part Of the ankle.
They occupy natural positions, as II the
creature that own. them bad been

fossils do not doubt that they are i'm

COARSE FICTION FOR BOYS The
Observation-Disclosures reading so frequently
found in the hands Of boys Who run the
elevators, or DO errands, or have a few
minutes to themselves IN the town and
country, whether il concerns life on sea
OF land, does a swift and disastrous
work. The confession of young Pome
roy was that the stories Of successful
crime first suggested to him the fearful
crimes which he himself committed,
aud he is not the first or only one who
has been led to take up a criminal career
from the fascination thrown around 10
by the writers Of coarse fiction for boys.
Hardly less mischievuUs is the delusion
wrought in boys minds by fanciful pie
lures OF life az sea. The romance Of the
story aud the stark reality OF life on
board Of a ship are two things widely
apart. One of these deiuded boys, on a
school-ship, writing home, says: There
are three things boy wants as soon as
he gets TO sea-hrst, to 90 home; sec
oud, a good square meal ; third, to get
his fingers on the fellow who wrote
Jack Harkaway.' Something to re-
member, boys.

first frightened, then Indignant, and
finally became stubborn. She refused

A Rich Thing about Editors

Editors are usually wealthy the
man with sample case remarked.
YES" l said, "they are familiar with
all the slang aud business phrases Of the
money market; they write about mill

they build railroads; they organize min

panies with fabulous capital; they de-
clare war without first consulting the
ROthschilds, aud if all the banks iu
America were to fail tomorrow, thev
wouldn't be a cent poorer than they are
to day. Yes, they are rich. They ass0-

"Now, Children said a Sunday
school superintendent, who had been
talking to his scholars about good peo-
pie aud bad people, "when I'm walking
IN the street | speak to some persons /
meet, and / don't speak 10 others, and
what's the reason ?" He expected the
reply would be, because some are good

journalism (of the respectable Kind,

may judge by a number of cur ex-

by articles which in tEe main only

tie them With one another like men, in
stead Of bringing up dIsagreeable facts,

Let the people know that your papers
are for them, instead Of discussing per
sonal spite, and your success will be in

she felt attached 10 him, aud would
probably exclude him from the best So

excuse than irreeoucilable differences OF
political views must still be found for
those who wish to dissolve the golden tie.

THE BEST TRAINED HORSES IN EXISTENCE.
In lengthy mention of w. w. Coles famous
shows the Quincy Herald Of May 22d, re-.
marks: In the circus pavilion the same
neatness was observed. The vast tent when
SLED with people was grand sight, a spec
tacle worth paying to see. The performance
was what Mr.. Cole had pledged the public it
would be. All that vas promised was done.
We would like to mention the various acts in
detail, but want of space confines US to the
prominent features. The six performing
stations are even better than represented ;
their feats are remarkable and are good
show by themselves. They are by far the
best trained horses ever exhibited in Quincy.
The leaps of the performing horse Humboldt
are great and were met with enthusiastic ap-
plause. The famous bicycle act in mid-air
was done just as promised. It is wonderful
and startling and may be set down as the
most remarkable feat ever accomplished in
mid-air These features will positively be
seen at Sacramento, September 10th and
18th.

Dunn on tho Tariff

Notwithstanding the fierce barking at
Dunnell by the Albert Lea Standard and
Spring Valley Vidette, because of his
voting against taking the matter of the
removal of the duty on printing paper
and wood pulp out Of The hands of the
ways and means committee before the
committee had taken action and report
ing it for immediate consideration, Mr..
Dunnell is in favor of removing the duty
just the same, and when the proposition
GENES up squarely on its merits, he will
vote for it. Congressman Townsend,
who asked to have the matter taken from
the committee of which Mr.. Dunnell was
a member, insulted the committee square
" by his actions AMI words; and, as the
Mankato Reuie,o Dem says, of Dnnnell,
"Self.respect at least, dictated his course,
and we confess but little respect for any
man, similarly situated, who would moi
have done just IS he has"
