WOMAN, BABY, BANKER, TRAMP.
Strange Feelings Cooked by the Naked
Skeleton Of Brooklyn Bridge.

Strange Feelings Evoked by the Naked
Skeleton of Brooklyn Bridge.
A fat woman, in red shawl, with a
the other, says the New York Star, slowly
descended the stairs at the city hall termin-
us of the elevated railroad about noon the
other day. Suddenly she stopped, deposit
ed the basket on a step and the baby on
the basket. Looking intently in the di-
rection of the big bridge, the ponderous
lady exclaimed.
Lord have mercy upon US! What's
that?''
"Now, then, ma'am, be lively" said a
sleek old gentleman, two steps above the
woman. "Life is short. The banks close
at o'clock, and it is now nearly noon.''
"Can't you tell me what that big sprawl
i ing iron thing is that those men are paint
| ing red?"
That, ma'am, is-ah-why, everybody
knows-arra-it is the-a-I should say
| for the love of heaven, madam, are you go
ing to blockade this stairway all day?
don't know what that thing is, and don't
care"
'But you said just now"
MADAM, if you value the safety of that
basket and the life of that precious child,
pick them both up and move on down"
Thus admonished the woman resumed
her burden and modified her substantial
person to the sidewalk. There she was
accosted by ragged man of middle age,
with iron-gray hair, a lock of which pointed
skyward through an aperture in a veneer
able white derby. The mans face was
pale and haggard, and his eyes blco lshot.
Laying one trembling hand on the lid of
the basket, he said, in hoarse voice:
MADAM, do you see anything there?"
"Where?" asked the startled woman.
A"There," replied the man, pointing to-
ward the gaunt iron structure. Two great
drops of sweat trembled on the Migrants
brow as he waited for an answer.
''To be sure do, but can't tell VIII at it
is"
"Is it alive?" he inquired seriously.
"Aive? Law sakes, the man is crazy.
How cana lot of red posts be alive?"
''Thank you, ma'am, thank you from the
bottom of my heart" said the ragged
man, laying his hand impressively on the
lower region of his tattered vest. Il have
just got over an attack and 1 thought had
'em again"
For the enlightenment of the fat woman
the sleek old gentleman and the alarmed
| tramp, it may be we'll to state that the
queer iron affair is the skeleton of a depot
| to be used by passengers waiting for the
cars on the endless train railway which
will extend across the bridge.

The Republicans of the Twelfth judicial
district are having pow-wow over the of
fee of district attorney. A leading Re-
publican politician of this county, inform
ed me at the time the Office was first Great
ed, that it was concocted by Nordin, Brown
& Co., for the special purpose of appeas-
ing Mr.. Arctander's wrath, and rendering
satisfaction to him for his Impeachment
by the above company. Our informant
also said that Arctander admitted to him
that the interest of the Office was to keep
him from running for judge, and smiling
ly remarked that the Office of D. A. would
enlarge his acquaintance and secure his
election to the judgeship. We quizzed our
informant about the matter short time
ago and he reiterated his previous statement
Consequently there must be some tall lie

GIRLS NEEDED IN THE WEST.

Shocking Dearth Of FeDtjeineS IN Colorado
A distinguished platform speaker used
to deliver a very earnest lecture on the
subject of "What shall we do with our
girls?" 1t was hard question to answer
by the lady lecturer. But her answer has
now come. At least there is a chance for
some of the girls. Here is the pathetic plea
of the Durango, Col, Record: eve want

good shape to go to dance. The boys

class on Sundays, and that kind who can
draw congregation of the other sex. and
who will take buggy ride after the lesson
is over. This will help the livery business
and will also help the sale of residence
lots, for buggies are the vehicles in which
homes are first thought of by some people.

The wheat Prospects Good.

ST.. LOUIS, March 23.-The Post Dispatch
has reports of the winter wheat crop from
over 200 counties in those parts of Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri and
Texas where winter wheat is grown, which
summarized show that in Missouri and
Kansas the condition Is good, the average
fully equal to last year and the damage so
far no greater than is usually the case at
this time of the year. Tennessee and
Illinois give fair reports, but Kentucky
and Indiana, especially the latter, show
considerable damage. From Texas the re-
ports are meager, but good as far as they
go, and from other sources it is learned
that the condition is generally good, with a
fair prospect for full crop. Reports also
show that there is still very large amount
of last years corn crop in the states
named. A dispatch from Topeka, Kas.,
where the State Millers' association is in
session, says: The millers present express
the opinion that the wheat prospect in that
state is very favorable and predict that
with good weather the yield will be from
3O,000,000 to 100000 bushels.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, March 23.-The Jour
nal has received special reports from over
100 points in Indiana and Illinois concern
ing the growing wheat crop, the general
tenor of which is decidedly discouraging
The universal opinion as expressed
By the Journal correspondents it is said
that the crops have been very much dam
aged by the unfavorabIe winter season, ant
that the injury inflicted by the winter
storms has been greatly aggravated by
the freezes of the past two weeks. Al
average opinion is that the crop will fal
one-third short of that of 1892. Of thu
surplus of that crop from 10 to q
per cent. yet remains n the hands of the
farmers.
