interposed the man of news, "will you
not have to get that prohibition law IN

a better class of people anywhere than

wants to imbibe he will find something

you he wishes, but ii he keeps his eyes

deemed necessary.

perform this morning in the laying out
OF the remains of Pizen Switch pros

was taken i'll last night about IL o'clock
and DR.. Box was Immediately tele-
phoned for to attend him, but his efforts
were in vain, and this morning the
stranger became very dead drunk and
turned up his toes. The boys did all
in their power to make the cadaver pre-.
sent hrst-class Fourth of July appear
ance. 1t was decided TO hold a wake
over the remains. A sheet was drawn
over the form, candles lit, and whisky
poured down the necks of the specta-
tors in plentiful quantities. At the
close select quartette sang "Tim Fin
negan's Wake" in patriotic and soul
stirring manner, and all joined in the
chorus:
They rolled him up in . nate clsae sheet,
And laid him out upon the bed;
With fourteen candies at his feet.

Accident.

On the Fourth as G. w. Reed was
driving a load of picnicers to Steamboat
from Virginia, he met with quite Sc.
rious accident on the Geiger grade.

about four miles from the picnic ground
the wheel broke down and turned the
coach over. MIR. Reed was considera.

internally. Two passengers were also
somewhat bruised and shaken up. 1t is
not expected that anything serions will
result from the accident.

The passenger department Of the Balti-

latest is the Red Book Of the Republican
National convention, and everything Is
given which can be considered of inter
est in connection with convention mat
tiers, and the clear and exceedingly CON
else form must commend It most heartily.
The compilation is out of the usual
order in political text books There are
