A SPECIAL telegram to the Inter Ocean
says the Southern Democrats in Congress
have been in receipt of letters, for days,
from prominent Democrats in their re-
spective states, convey the alarming in
telligence that great distrust exists in
the Democratic party Of the South re-
speeding the fall elections. The impress
sion, they stated, seemed to prevail
among Democrats that the coalition fOs-
tered by the administration in the south
ern states would carry everything be-
fore them. The Democrats, they said,
were becoming disheartened. Thereup-
on the Democrats in the House realizing
the necessity Of reassuring their party
friends, canvased among themselves the
Democratic chances in the coming cleo
ton. By close calculation and throw
ing out speculative elements they come
to the pleasing conclusion that the DEM
Ocrats would have majority of twelve
in the next House. This statement was
solemnlv and formally made up and
transmitted to the Chairman of the Dem
ocratic State Central Committee of the
South. Nothing has yet been heard of
the effect of this tonic on the enervated
BOurb0ns.

did so for contingent fee of so per

porters will be able, under the decision
to collect anywhere from to 10 million
dollars from the government as excess
of duties paid. One-half of it goes to
Begley, who discovered the defect in the
law, and if he collects even a million
dollars he will receive the largest fee
ever paid to lawyer.

THERE is prospect that little Della
ware. which has been welded to Bour-
bonism, may go Republican at the APP
preaching election. The Democratic
majority was only GAO two years ago, and
since then the City of Washington, at
its municipal election, has shown a good
Republican majority FOR the first time
in history. The state is so gerryman-
dered that there is no hope of obtaining
a Republican Senator in Salisbury's
place, but the Republicans may be able
to gain Congressman there.

A Snake and q Centipede.

A gentleman, living near here, of close
observation, was called by his wife TO
witness strange spectacle that lay in
the path before her. When he came up
he found it to be battle between CEN
tipede and striped snake near three
feet long. He called to another gentle
man, and they watched the contest with
interest The centipede, with wonder
full activity, darted upon the snake and
caught him by the neck, from which no
effort of the snake could dlslodge him.
The snake turned, twisted and lashed
himself. mt times standing almost on his
head. and again ON his tail, seeming 10
be in agony. IL the meantime, the
worm was cutting through the neck of
the snake. When the snake became
still the worm would loose his hold and
move off several inches, but if the snake
moved he would dart upon him in an
instant and go to cutting again. After
n little the snake was still, and the cen
tipede stretched himself out and began
TO fill himself with the blood of the
snake. This he did rapidly, and the
gentlemen could mark the increase OF
his size, until all the blood seemed to be
drawn from the snake and the worm had
gotten very large. The head OF the
snake was nearly cut off, and he was

Spring COnundrurns.

Why, in the spring of the year, do pic.
MICS become epidemic, and old and young,
rich and poor, rush off into the woods to
eat their lunch under trees, and be fed
on by ticks and mosquitoes? 1t is simply
because for tens of thousands of years
man was in nomadic condition. He
wandered about with his family in the
woods, living on berries and being an
noyed by insects, and although man has
become civilized, and lives in house,
yet, nevertheless, about once year an
irresistible desire to return to his old
vagabond life comes over him, and he
just has to go on picnic, after which he
cools down for the rest of the year, and
and puts sweet oil on the tick bites.
Just so it is with women gardening
Until quite recently woman had to do all
the hard work in the field. She had to
dig up the ground, plant the crop and
gather it until it became second nature
to her. Her husband was kind enough
to encourage her to keep on by shaking
a stick at her when she wanted to sit
down and rest, but it was below his dig
nifty to work. Such was the condition of
woman from the beginning of time. 1t
lazy to gather in the apples, SO Eve had
to do it for him. OF course all this
is changed now. All that most women
do in the way of hard work is to dress up
and go to parties, but every spring she
cannot resist the impulse to put on her
worst clothes and drudge with hoe out
in the front yard, as she used to do thou
sands of years ago. Austin Stttiags.

The Stupid Joke.

The above is the style of joke that is
making our beloved land the corral for
vast herd of idiots, who ought to be
poisoned and thrown into the moaning

The class of facetious individuals who
do not know enough to die of remorse
is gradually increasing. The country is
cursed at present with vast epidemic of
this kind of mirth that makes perdition

How can you knock poor worm OF the

About the only way we see is to drain

Drinking In "GOod Society,""

A column in Philadelphia paper
headed I'm Good Society,"" divulges the
following: 1.-The practice of drinking is
more common among women than II
was year ago. The number of young
unmarried ladies who drink wine with
gentlemen is increasing, and, strange as
it may appear, the effectual protection
against over indulgence by young un-
married ladies upon which society de-
ponds, is the honor of the gentleman.
Young ladies seldom are able to Judge
how much wine they ought to drink, and
some wines have more intoxicating
effect than others. A gentleman who
would persuade or deceive q lady into
drinking more wine than was good for
her would be almost sure TO forfeit her
esteem ever afterward, and in any event
would incur the strongest displeasure of
her relatives if they found it out. This
is one of the reasons why, sometimes in
taking young lady home, the gentle
man has the driver to go a mile or so our
of the way in order to get little fresh
air. Where there is dancing it is con-
sidered indiscreet to drink early in she
evening, since if the lady falls by acct
dent or has many collisions she is sure
to be accused of taking too much, as
they say. For that reason drinking is
usually deferred until after the dancing. "

A man in an Austin saloon, read out n

the chest ?" Finally, when still another
knock down was scored, he could stand
it no longer, and called out in perfect

several kegs of beer one night, consigned

after missed one of the kegs. On
searching the vicinity he found where
the keg was hidden, and he recovered it,
and borrowing an empty beer keg he
filed it with water from the sewer, and
placed it where the other key had been,
and watched it. Later some smart fell
lows took the keg away to store, tap
ped it and all took drink. Several

There was dispute among three
maidens as to which had the most beau
tiful hand One sat by the stream, and
dipped her hand into the water and
held it up another plucked strawberries
until the ends of her fingers were pink,
and another gathered violets until her
hands were fragrant. An old, haggard
woman passing by asked: "Who will
give me a gift, for / am poor ?" All
three denied her; but another who sat
near, unwashed in the stream, unstained
with fruit, unadorned with flowers, gave
her little gift, and satisfied the poor
woman. And then she asked them what
was the dispute, and they told, and
lifted up before her their beautiful
hands. Beautiful, indeed" said she,
when she saw them. But when they
asked her which was the most beautiful
she said: at is not the hand that is
washed clean in the brook it is not the
hand that is tipped with red it is not
the hand that is garlanded with fragrant
flowers, but it is the hand that gives to
the poor which is the most beautiful. v
As she said these words her wrinkles
fled, her staff was thrown away, and she
stood before them an angel from heaven
with authority to decide the question in
dispute.
