That's another

amount of self. esteem. That's another
lie-it must have been, because
haven't vestige OF it now, sir"
"I'm afraid things can't be going on
well at home," observed poor j. Oc-
tavius w., on his defence.
"No, sir, confound you, they are
not! exclaimed Griggs, whose face
was flaming with passion. "And there's
one more lie--you told me had plenty
of frmness, stability of character; if
you ask my wife, sir, she'd tell diff
ferent tale. And you said had good
power of self controls; do you dare say
that now sirP" And Mr.. Griggs glared
furously.
"Pm extremely sorry, I'm sure"
softly answered the enemy; | really
hoped | should have been able to give
you satisfaction"
"And so you shall, you Internal old
humbug."
This last remark led to a lively in
terchange of personalities, followed by
an assault and battery. Then the down
trodden Andrew ramped out of the
shop, smile of victory spreading
proudly over his countenace; and on
his homeward journey he consoled him
self with the reflection that, if he should
unfortunately be compelled to take a
back seat for the rest of his life, at any
rate he was not the only sufferer. AS
for the tall, lean professor, for many
subsequent days he was feeling on his
own Uranium several new and promi-
nent bumps, which were not to be
found marked upon the model bust
III the window, while ke mournfully
came to the conclusion that prenology
was not such very complete or salts
factory science after all.

~" ioih lllbuhC'
1t was reported from Boston last
week that careful canvass Of the
senate showed that the reciprocity
treaty would be ratified. Boston peo-
pie appear to take q strong interest in
the matter, not SO much because Of
railroads in which capitalists there
have invested as because OF the larger
mark CT which It is thought the treaty
would secure for our products. Very
much the larger part of our exports to
Mexico now is of manufactured arti-
cles. Among the more important last
Year were 81, 100000 worth of iron
manufactures, and, with carriages and
cars (SSS9, ,000), engines $740,000),
sewing machines (313, O00), agricult-
ural implements, scales and balances
and firearms, $3,377,0O of bread.
flour. butter, cheese, lard and cured
fish, 1894 600; Of cotton goods, $9l8,-
600; of powder and cartridges, $423,-
OO0; OF refined oil, lamps and candles,
1865, 900; Of drugs, pants, perfumery
and soap 1915, 600; OF piaros and mu-
-ical instruments, clocks, isweiry and
plated ware, stone manufactures aud
rope, S25S 600; OF printing presses and
type, books and paper, $26l 600; of
glass, rubber and leather manutac-
ture', 366,000; of beer and refined
sugar, $2l2 600; and of fancy goods
SlU4,000. Altogether, over So, 9,OO0,00O
worth of these products went TO Mex
leo last year, besides S2,2l7, 900 worth
of cotton, $4l6 600 OF corn and pota-
toes, $545 600 of lumber, 1895 600 of
quicksilver, $l29,0 coo of tobacco, and
$50, 900 Of coal. 1t will be seen that
we are able TO supply that country

Mrs. Bill Plumbottle is one of the
wealthiest ladies in Austin, but she
hasn't got a particle of sense. One day
last week she drove up to the store
door of prominent grocer. He came
out, bowing, and asked what he could
do for her.
"Have you any more hams like that
one got last week." she asked
Eyes, Mrs. Plumbottle, we have six
more just like them"
'If they are not the same kind |
don't want EN-"
"Why, madam, l assure you they are
all from the same animal"
"Well, If the whole six are from the
same animal, you may send them TO
my house, replied Mrs. Plumbottle.

Some of the richest men in Austin
started in life in a very modest way,
and arc still plain, unpretentious peo-
pie, but their sons put on a great deal
of style. One of the latter, who was
better posted about other peoples af-
fairs than his own family's remarked
sneeringly To an acquaintance: Your
father was nothing but simple stone
mason" II know where you got that
information" quietly remarked the
other. From whom did ] get it?"
"From your father" "How do you
know thatp" Because your father
used TO be my fathers hodcarrier."

Democratic Prosecuting Attorney,
BY Hard Scratching, Gets
One Majority.

The fight, which was one of the most
hotly contested in this county for many
years, has been fought and the battle
won. Against unlimited cash distrib
uted in all the townships of the county
in the last two weeks, the Republicans
came to the front in such positive style
as to surprise the Democratic managers,
who have been figuring on carrying the
county by 800 majority. Of the entire
ticket, none of the opposition were left
to tell the story but kennon, who crawl
ed through by the sacrifice of others on
the Democratic ticket. The gallant Re-
publicans of Pease, of Warren, of Flush
ing, of KirkwOod, of Richland, of every
township in the county, fought with the
old Republican vigor, and won glorious
Republican victory. The vote in the
county was 12.2S2, larger than ever be-
fore cast. 1t will be observed that Gen.
Robinson, the Secretary of State, Can
behind his ticket. his majority being
forty-two less than Flickinger, the can
didate for Member of the Board of Pub
lie Works, who was not scratched. Be-
