A VILE CONSPIRACY.

Jehiel Jasper strOlled into the gro
Gerry store and pOstOffice of one of our
back country villages Saturday, and af-
ter standing around with his back to
the fire until he was permeated with
calOric, said:
well, L guess I'll read the news and
get along towards home. Squire Per-
kinses' paper come yet?" and he stepped
behind the pOstoffice boxes, as was his
custom. to take it out and read it.
Cant let you see it, Jehiel," said the
postmaster; Government has issued or
ders that any postmaster who allows a
nOn-subscriber to read a subscribers
paper, will lose his position"
mol You don't tell me! Well, if
that amt great idea? It's put-up
jOb-a gOl darn conspiracy between
these newspaper men and the Guv'ment
to keep the multitude in ignorance, so
that they can dOmineer it over the COM
munity. And they talk about this ERE
being a free country. It's drifting
right into deSpOtism jes' as fast as il
can. How in thunder's a man to know
what's gOin' on if he don't read, an
now the governments settin' down on
all ldees of eddicatiOn, an takin' away
that privilege"
"Oh, not so bad as that, Jehiel," said
the postmaster. "The government
doesn't say anything against your sub
scrlbing for the paper yourself, you
know"
'Subscribin' for it! What dye take
me for? Dye spOse I'm goin' to sub
scribe for paper that I've read four
teen years right here by the stove with
out cOstin' me a cent" No, sir. /
amt goin' to help 'em to oppress me
by keepin' me in ignorance. No,
sir-e-e."
And having got a supply of cheap
plug tobacco put ION the slate" he Jog
ged home, thoroughly oppressed citi-
zen.

THE MODEL DRUMMER.
"47" Ross, the Enterprising
Salesman of Elbel, Gill
liam AZ Co.

Dayy Ross, of Knoxville, Tenn, sales
man i'll the southern States for the sad
dlery hardware firm of Elbel, Gillian &
Co., of this city, is noted for his energy
and "git-up-and-git" style. He is known
to the trade in the Atlantic and Gulf
States by the suggestive title of ar
Ross. This does not mean that Davy
has sold names, bits and "sich" for that
many years, but is the number of the
cheapest ail-wrought bit made, and
which 'Old Az delights in selling in
job lots to all his customers. The fol-
lowing just received at headquarters
here is reported as Dayy's latest display
of ingenuity and shows that he knows
not only how to procure but how to
keep customers: syAf.
Davy dropped down into New Orleans
several days ago only to find that one of
his best customers was about to trans
fer his custom to New York house.
Didn't we always do well by yOu?
asked "Old A.
"Yes, believe so."
Didn't we ship goods promptly?"
And did we ever press you in q
pinch?"
NO"
Did you ever get lower prices at the
New York HOuse?"
NO, can't say as L did
Then L can't understand why you
should leave our house all of sudden,
after buying of me for several years."
81 know that some explanation is
due, and l will make one" replied the
merchant. "YOu know that | attend
church. Well, our church is in need of
REPAIRS; we were talking it over the
other day when the New York drummer
was in here, and he at once subscribed
ten dollars"
Ten dollars! Why, that's only the
price of dozen gOld-plated bits. Put
me down for thirty dollars cash, and a
new set of silver-mOunted harness for
the minister"
"DO you really mean it?"
"Of course l do; and if that twO-cent
Christian from New York dare sign an
other five, I'll send you down a $500 or
gan, and pay man $500 year to play
it. We are house that never makes
any great display of gospel hymns an
religious tracts, but when a New York
drummer bluffs we shOwIOur religious
hand and rake in the pot every time"
The merchant will continue to deal
with DaYy's firm.

Nimrods Returned.

Fred. w. Burgess and Walter C..
White left here on the 18th for a two
weeks paseo, visiting San Diego and
"way stations, going from there down
into Lower California, and returning
the other side of the coast range" via
San Bernardino, passing through the
Mission, Poway and Bear valleys, where
the crops, mostly wheat), are looking
very well, and the horses, cattle and
sheep seem to be in good condition.
After spending day in San Bernardino
they went up the San Antonio canon to
the foot of "Old Baldy," where there
is considerable snow, and spent about a
week in trout fishing, having very good
success, and bring home about forty.
But, running short of the wherewithal
to live on, they returned home about
ten days sooner than they would other
wise have done. On the whole they
had delightful trip. Fred did not
"forget to remember" the Standard,
and we not only thank him for the fine
fish sent US, but sincerely appreciate his
kindly motives in his endeavor to fur
nish us with brain food. May he live
long in the land and never be caught
fishing with trap-hooks.--Santa Ana

Digitated Stockings.
[Scientific Americana

From time immemorial stockings with
toes have been used occasionally, partic-
ularly in the treatment of certain foot
troubles. Lately they have come into
more general use, and not little public
discussion has arisen over the fashiona-
BILE novelty. The London medical au-
thority Lancet is strongly inclined to
favor them as likely to conduce to COM
fort, and spare many persons who now
suffer from the development of soft corns
between the toes, serious trouble.
"They also would be more cleanly than
the stockings in common use, because
they would naturally absorb and re-
move the acrid moisture which accumu-
lates between the toes, and which is the
general cause of offensive odors from the
feet. They will, moreover, give the foot
better play, allowing its phalanges great
er freedom of action. And, lastly, a
we'll fitted digitated sock or stocking
will remove mass of material from the
toe of the boot, and, at the same time,
secure increased breadth and space for
expansion across the base of the toes.
The new stockings, supposing them to
be well cut and fitted, possess many
advantages"
Even if the toed stocking should have
no other effect than to expel the ugly
and unphysiological French toed" boot,
it would prove public benefit,

The great majority of those who have
looked upon the counterfeit present
ment" of Don Patricio Lynch, the Gen
eralissimo of the Chilian army, have
made up their minds that that distin-
guished warrior is an Irishman. The
prenomen, Patricio or Patrick, and the
patronymic, Lynch, both favor this hy-
pothesis. His face, also, as reproduced
in the illustrated papers, would seem to
carry one back to the days of Clontarf
and Brian Boroihme. But, at whatever
date the Milesian was introduced into the
family, in far off Chill, Don Pratricio
was born at Valparaiso in 1925, of
Chilian parents, his father being very
respectable merchant. Patricio was ed
ucated at the Naval School of Santiago
de Chilli, and was with the British feet
in the war of China. He was the first
Chilian Governor of Iquique, and was
OOIflnlhiiudut-OcHcTd III tu6 eApeulllOu
against Peru. In the battle of Choril-
los, out of his division of $500 men,
which bore the brunt of the combat, he
lost 1872 officers and 1879 soldiers; and,
in the decisive battle of Mirafores,
the intrepid Lynch added the crowning
laurels to the Chilian arms. Military
history still busies itself with Lynch.
On the 18th of November, 1881, he dis
embarked with his division of $500
men at Pisco, in Peru, and made a forced
march of 200 miles across a desert, and
in the face Of almost insurmountable
dificulties--a march Napoleonic in its
wondrous celebrity and daring re-
turned to Iquique with the loss of but
four men. He is now Generalissimo of
the Chilian forces, and a soldier of
whom any country might justly be
proud.
