SUSAN b.
The Truth About n woman Whom
the Newspaper Wits Poke Fun At.


Susan B. Anthony is about to celebrate
her birthday. Recent discoveries in the
Egyptian tombs throw considerable light
upon the date Of that interesting event.
Exchange.
These funny paragraphs, SO many OF
which are aimed at Miss Anthony, proba-
bly, do very little harm. Like the jokes
that used to be made on Mr.. Greeley, they
only increase her audience when she de-
livers a lecture. Miss Anthony is q noble
and a trus lady. We have known
her we'll for many years, and know that
she was a dutiful daughter of honored
parents, and that she is a devoted sister to
her surviving brothers and sisters. She
has labored faithfully and effectively in
many good causes, and is as worthy OF the
respect and esteem OF the American peo-
pie as any true and pure man who has
worked in the same field.
Some years ago Miss Anthony and MISS
Stanton started a woman's paper IN New
York, the Revolution. II was able, adj
mirably edited and printed, but It did not
succeed. Miss Anthony's share of the loss
was about $40, 900, most OF which she had
borrowed from o sister. q school teacher In
Rochester. The brave Susan did not
whine or grumble, or remain idle, OF
avoid the debt. She went to work In the
lecture field, and did not leave it until
every dollar was paid. The papers made
no Jokes about that. When her brother
received a wound that the physicians pro-
nounced fatal, she travelled 1000 miles to
reach his bedside. and remained with
"pan" till he recovered. Many similar
incidents might be told OF this noble anc
Christian lady. But most OF u brother
journalists think they show wit when they
ridicule Susan Anthony.

Two Cowboys Make n whole Party
Strip and Dance Naked.
One OF the most reckless and desperate
of cowboys was Curly Bill. and he it was
who killed the Chief OF Police at Tomb
stone about two years ago. He was tried
by q packed jury and acquitted. Shortly
after his release he went with a companion
to Charleston, a short distance from Tomb
stone. 1t was night when they arrived,
aud they soon found that a fandango was
in progress at one OF the Mexican houses.
There was only one door to the room, and
determining upon q little fun, they entered
and locked the door. Curly Bill stood
with his back against it, while his compan-
ion went to the other end. There was q
large number Of men and women dancing
at the time. and at a given signal both
cowboys drew two pistols each and COM
manded attention. Knowing the desper-
ate character Of the men, the occupants OF
the room OF once stood still and trem-
blingly awaited the outcome of manifesto
ton. strip, every one of you" shouted
Bill, "and be quick about It," Some hes
itated, but q few more words and an
exhibition OF the weapon in q peculiar
light, caused the most truculent to sue
cumb. In Ave minutes every dancer,
male and female, was in . state Of nudity.
Now" said Bill TO the musicians,
"strike up q tune" The musicians COM
piled, and the men and women command
ed to dance. This strange scene was con-
tinued for half an hour.

CAUGHT IN HER OWN TRAP.
How a Young Married Woman Made
a Fool OF Herself.

A Burlington man recently welded a
young wife. The lady became enthused
over Will Cartoons tale Of the elopement
Of handsome young woman with q ''hand-
some man." and determined to try the
same thing herself. She wrote a neat little
note, stating that she had left home with q
gentleman whom she had dearly loved be-
fore she had met her husband, and that he
need not trouble himself to look for them.
Then she called In her younger brother and
went calling with him, arranging to return
and hide where she could witness her liege
lords dismay when he came to read of her
flight. She, from her place OF concealment.
saw him enter, saw him look all round in
surprise at her absence, and finally saw
him discover the note. He opened and
read IT.. while her heart beat high with ex-
citement in anticipation Of the breaking
out she expected to hear. The poor fellow
finished the cruel misive, tore it up and
threw the fragments on the floor. and then.
without q moments warning, drew q re-
volver and fred point blank at his breast
and fell, without a sign OF life, to the carpet.
With a terrified scream the woman was at
her husbands side in a moment. lifting
his head, rolling him, shaking him, turn
Ing him and hunting for blood, ell the time
shrieking to her William to speak to her,
to forgive her. to only look at her. William
lay m~otionless, however, and the neighbor-
hood. aroused by the shot and screams,
came flocking in to learn Of the excitement.
when suddenly, when a score or more had
gathered, the dead leaped up from the floor
as we'll as ever. at which the wife tainted
away. She soon revived. however, and
then it all came out that the younger
brother, being in sympathy with William,
had let him into the scheme, and he had
chosen that mode OF Furnishing his joking
wife. She Jokes no more, but her husband
has compromised on a pony phaeton to keep
peace in the family.

one fine morning last March. attended by

away on the spot, and was carried into the
palace, where she speedily came to herself
and was found to have sustained no dam

LOUISVILLE, October 2S.-The
closing session of the Women's
National Christian Temperance
Union lost none of its interest and
few of its delegates to-day. A vast
amount of business was tran sacted
with ability and dispatch. Among
the resolutions, and which was ex-
pected to bring on discussion, was
one as follows:
eve rejoice in the advance
made along the line of constitu-
tional prohibition during the past
year, we hail the successes in Kan
sas and Iowa and the activity in
other States for securing prohibi-
ton by this method, as harbingers
Of the swiftly coming time when,
with the majority of the States
fixed upon the foundation of con-
stitutional law prohibiting the
liqnor traffic, they shall be able to
engraft this principle upon the
National Constitution.
We rejoice in the day that gives
recognition to our prohibition prin-
ciple by political partisans, and we
will endeavor to influence the best
men in all communities to commit
themselves to that party, by what
ever name called, that shall give
to them the best embodiment of
prohibition principles, and will
most surely protect our homes.
The report Of the Publishing
Committee offered a plan for the
consolidation of "Our Union" and
"The Signal" which brought on a
long discussion and elected some
able discussion.
A great many of the church put
pits will be filled by members of

Half an hour later the nervous

The conductor growled at him,

"Conductor," said he, after an
hours silence, eff the wind isn't

where my wife is buried before the

"lf you come near me again, I'll
