Plumb thus defines his tariff views:
"Kansas is not free-trade State. She
believes in raising money TO pay the cX-

long as the money must be raised she be-
lleves in deriving It from tariff which a,

HoU Women Button Their Clothes.

New York sun.
A controversy has been started by
London papers as to why women but
ton their clothes from the right to the
left and men from the left to the right.
1t has led to an elaborate display of
learning and wit. One writer declares
that men have buttoned from left to
right since the earliest Assyrian dynas-
ties. Another asserts that the button
ing distinguishes the Mussulman and
the Hindoo in India, while third says
that the writer need not go so far as
India for an illustration, as the women
of America are recognizable by the
male system of buttoning from left to
right The ladies of New Orleans, who
held to the other fashion till a recent
period, did so because of the French
colonization of Louisiana. Then the
controversy branched off into ques-
ton of the comparative quality of male
and female brains. A lady insists that
her sex button from right to left be-
cause the dressmakers so fix their
dresses and denies that man has any
right to draw invidious differences, while
sardonic and sarcastic enemy of
female rights, declaring that the plac-
ing of the right thumb over the left is a
positive proof of ruling mind, holds
that the female method of buttoning
indicates accordingly the advent of her
true position as mans ruler.

KINDRED SOULS.

Supremely blest are those hearts that find
Kindred key whose latent tone,
Awakes the sweetest echoes in the mind
AND breathes the music of their own.
It's like when Spring and Summer hath com
bined
And mingled each their fragrant air,
When our own exalted thoughts but find
sui nobler ones reflected there.
Oh, raptprous Joy, what pure delight is this!
A feast of condemnation sweet
III mortals taste of Heavenly bliss
lis when these kindred spirits meet.
They need no tender accents to bestow-
NO tender touch or lips or hands:
Inc kindred feeling needs no outward show,
But each the other understands.
lis God who gives them power to recognize,
AND each others Utmost thoughts to feel;
Each the other knows though no glance i'm
plies
The thoughts that lips dare not reveal.
An Eden true this dreary world would be
III only kindred souls united;
ana life a ceaseless strain of harmony,
With no discordant tones to blight it.
methinks beyond this rugged path of ours
There, all alike are kindred souls
VINO ever feel and know each others powers
And mutual thought and love controls.
This precious hope oft soothes my bleeding
heart
When shadows intervene the days,
Ihere is place where kindred souls impart
A constant glow of loves bright rays.

Killed by q Jest.

A special from Cadiz, O., to the Chi
cago Inter Ocean, says: The death yes
terday of Miss Alice Mcclellan, of New
Athens, discloses a romantic tragedy.
The girl, who was young, intelligent
and great favorite, but exceedingly
nervous, died after an illness of thirty
six hours, during which time she was
unconscious, three men being required
to hold her at times. Miss Mcclellan
was engaged to a young gentleman
named Nash, resident of the neigh
borhood, and highly esteemed. Satur-
day evening he called on Miss Mcclellan
and remained some time. When taking
his departure in jest he said to her that
he had concluded to sever their rela-
tons, and there could be nothing be-
tween them but friendship. The girl
was so affected that she sank down into
a spasm that continued until her death.
Every effort was made to restore her to
consciousness unavailingly. Nash, who
was frantic with grief, was constantly
in attendance, but his presence had no
effect on the lady. 1t is feared that
Nash will become insane.

Il Sad Disappointment.

At Sacramento the other day man
was on his last legs with pneumonia
His life was insured for several thousand
dollars, and it appeared him a little
tough that he was to get no fun out of
all his money. Determined to do the
best he could under the circumstances,
he made will that he thought would
cover a portion of the ground. His will
provided that at his funeral every hack
in town should he employed and all his
friends and acquaintance invited to at
tend and take a ride afterward. All
who attended were also invited to parti-
cipate in grand banquet in the even
ing at the hotel, at which brass band
which should lead the funeral procession
was to enliven the occasion with music.
After making his will he was so tickled
with the idea of the whole affair, as he
could see it in his minds eye, and with
the thought of what large slice of the
insurance he was thus having the fun
of spending, that he at once began to
mend and in spite of himself got well.
Now he is as far as ever from the in
surance money and mourns the loss Of
the grand banquet, the brass band and
the other big things that were to make
his funeral a notable event.

Beating a Circus Bully.
Denver Times.


s'The Anglo-American circus, now
showing in this city, has big burly
usher who made himself particularly
obnoxious last night. He pushed ladies,
small boys and invalids around in a
very rough manner, but piously avoided
saying even cross word to any one
who was nearly as big as himself. Just
when the rush was at its height, Glow,
the pugilist, came in with a lady, and
began looking for seat. The big usher
pushed the lady through crowd and
told her, in rough manner, that she
could look for a seat in the top row.
Glow stepped up after her and started
down the steps when the usher con-
fronted the woman and told her very
uncivily to stop. There were several
people near who knew Glow, number
of them told him to give it to him.
This was unnecessary, for before the
words could be said the prize fighter hit
the fellow and knocked him to the bot
tom of the incline of seats. a second
six-foot usher rushed up behind Glow
and hit him while he was off his guard.
Glow recovered himself before the fel-
low could strike second time, and the
next thing the usher knew he was tumb-
ling down over the seats with Glow fol-
lowing and kicking him like foot ball,
while everybody in the vicinity yelled,
GO in Glow and-give it to both of
EN- The affair caused quite sensa-
ton for few minutes, but things fin
ally quoted down, and the ushers
thereafter were quite civil.

"Speakingsof proud men," said q
red-nosed man in a Harlem grocery on
Saturday, s'the proudest man l know
is old Jacob Solomon. He never allows
any man to say word agaist anything
he has. He carries it almost too far.
A few week ago Solomon and were
sitting in Jake's place drinking beer,
when two young Hebrews came in and
sat down at the next table. we could
hear everything they said. Veil Isaac,
said one, how did you enchoy the sum-
mer?' First rate replied the other;
I was up to the Catskills.' Ish dat
so? l was dare myself the summer Pc
fore. BY de way, Isaac, did you see

if I didn't Did you kiss her?' Well,
of l didn't you can use my head as a
pase pail. so did 1. So did 1. Vat
do you think of her?' 4 tink she is de
worst kissing I ever saw so do l.
Then old Solomon, who had been
wrapped up in the conversation, inter-
rupted: You say, shentlemen, dot you
kissed dot woman, and she wasn't good
kissing?" its none of your pizness
vat We say; but l tell you old man, she
wasn't worth dime Don't say dat,
shentlemen. You mustn't say that. I
know peter. She is good kissing
What do you know apout Rachael?'
they exclaimed together. 'Everydings.
She is my wife.
