Why Shouldn't He P

We got on a train tho other day
and farmer and his wife got on 81
the same station. They were evil.
IDENTIFY going on visit to some
point little way up the road. She
was dressed in her Sunday-go-to-
meeting suit, and looked neat and
pretty. We presume he felt proud
of her; he ought to. We hardly
think she could have felt proud Of
him, unless, indeed, love is blind.
He had on the same suit of clothes
in which he had done the feeding
that morning; his boots, which
we're quito unacqualnted with the
touch OF blacking-brush, bore ira.
ces of the barn and the manure
heap; and to exhibit all of them,
his pants were tucked inside. His
hands were dirty and he sat there
by his neat little wife and squirted
tobacco juice all up and down the
aisle. Now We can sec no reason
why that wife had nota right TO ex-
pect her husband to dress mp and
shine up little, as he had to expect
1t of her. There is nothing IN Iarm
life to keep a man from being Il
gentleman, and there is no reason
why when farm r goes out with
his wife he should not show respect
to her by paying little attention
to his own personal appearance.

speak of it as among the most dis
agreeable spells they remember. But
for the strong wind keeping the
water so active it is thought the

Nothing new has developed in rela-

mon liar, who in some way obtained

CAPITAL NOTES.

MADISON, Nov 10Th 1888.
The fatal fall Of the south exten
sion Of the capitol is still the them,
Of absorbing interest The coro
nor's inquest is not yet concluded
and win occupy several days of thi
week. This inquest is for the pur
pose Of determining upon whom
shall lodge the terrible responsibility!
Of causing the death Of the five
workmen. Evidence thus far tend,
to show that careless construction Of
the brick pilasters on which iron col
umns rested, and effectiveness il
the columns themselves combined
to produce the calamity; and the
general opinion now is that such in
substance will be the verdict Of the
jury.
A committee Of building experts,
summoned by the Governor to ascer-
tain the cause of the disaster con
cluded their investigation and sub
mitted their report last Thursday.
See inside of this paper for report. !
This committee consisted of A. c.
Nash, architect of Cincinnati, God
/
frey Ludwig, builder of Cincinnati,
James r.. Willett, architect of Chi
cage, and c. +. Struck, architect of
Minneapolis.
A meeting of the building com
missioners was held Immediately
after the submission of this report,
before which the architects and CON
tractors were summoned. What
was determined is not fully known;
but the contractors were ordered to
clear the wreck as soon as possible,
and secure the standing walls for
winter; which work has already be
gun.
Before proceeding further with
the north extension, it will be thor
oughly examined to ascertain if like
defects exist there. The building
commissioners have employed anoth-
er architect, w. w. Boyington, OF
Chicago, under whose supervision
the chamber of commerce building
in Chicago was erected. He will
cooperate with architects Jones and
Koch until the extensions are com.
/ pleted. 1t is not thought that any
material changes of the original
plans and specifications will be nee
essary but wherever deemed essen.
tial to perfect safety the buildings
will be strengthened.
As yet the list of dead is not in
creased, and the general belief now
is that all the injured will recover
except one-James Dowel-a man
60 years Old who has both legs
| brok en- and is otherwise hurt. 1t i.
thought scarcely possible for him tc
survive. The Madison Democrat
strikes a popular chord in suggest
inc that the first duty of the mex
legislature will be to make liberia
appropriations to the families of the
men who lost their lives in this ac
cident.

The Fairbault, Dakota, RepuJE
Gun says; "Tbe failure of the corn
crop is affecting the pork interests
in this vicinity very unfavorably.
The farmers find, upon husking,
that the effects Of the frosts were
even more disastrous than they had
anticipated, and there will be but a
small proportion Of sound corn in
the crop Of this season. As a re-
suit of scarcity Of feed, pork pro-
ducers are crowding their hogs up
on the market, which tends to knock
down the price Buyers are now
paying 1925 per hundred weight for
shipment"
