him to vacate. The boy replied by max

The boy elevated his nose.
The driver seized his whip, but the boy
winked at him.

car to make good his threat, but as he
grabbed for the rear railing he missed it
and sprawIed in the street, while the
horse logged along at such gait as made
it necessary to run two blocks to over

The Man who Proposes to Make the
Trip in a Rubber Ball.

Trim in a Rubber Ball.
A Buffalo dispatch to the st. LOUIS
Globe Democrat says: Oliver Wormalo, Oh
this city, by occupation painter, onefs
to 90 over the falls in a rubber ball nfteen
feet in diameter for the sum of $1,000, TO De
guaranteed By the railroad companies OF
nv Driyate endorsement. The matter mas
been thoroughly canvassed, and mas en-
listed the cooperation of W. q. Graham,
of Cleveland. and Peter s. Grant, Dusl-
ness man Of this city. Mr.. WOrmalu
ball. he says, win be fifteen feet In dame
ter. within which there viii be sumcleht
space for the adjustment Of an apparatus
which he claims will keep him in an up
ri0ht nogition while the ball is IN
motion. 1t viii consist ofthree-fourth men
r1hhar covered with a close braldlng
of tarred rope, so as to prevent IN
iurv TO the rubber should the sphere strike
the rocks. But this precaution is scarce
" necessary, as Mr.. Wormald Claims
that the ball will receive sufhclent mo-
mentum to hurl it far from the falls, where
he exDects to be picked up by boats.
After having been inoculated with a
quantity of air to keep the occupant alive
for fifteen minutes the ball viii be her
meticallv closed by means OF hot rubber
apDlied with q brush, and the netting
fastened bv means OF snap springs. Mr..
WOrmald is a man OF small stature,
weighing about 126 pounds and measur-
ing about feet inches. In complexion
he is a blonde, with blue eyes of merry,
dancing temperament, and mouth which
bespeaks determination. Being tresco
artist and sign-etterer, he Is accus-
toned to dizzy heights, and therefore
the word afraid has no meaning
for him. His theories are clearly eX-
pressed. The plan devised by MIR. Wor-
maid is not a new one, but the man is,
and that is some encouragement for the
furtherance of the experiment. Wormald
also claims as a hacker George Doll, Of
this city, who says he will stake 81 900 on
the venture alone. Warmald was born
in London, England, and is about 80 years
of age, at which period a man ought to
know what he is about. His father is
prominent machinist at Perth Amboy,
and the inventor of a street car motor.
Oliver has wife and two small children,
for whom he displays great affection, but
such confidence has he in his venture that
he considers it no sacrifice to his future.

A CRAZY BRASS BAND.
Fourteen Inmates of the SorristOwn
Asylum in the Orchestra Box,

Fourteen Inmates OF the NOErlsEOWn
Asylum in the Orchestra Box,
A brass band has been organized among
the inmates of the Norristown Insane
Asylum, says the Philadelphia Record,
and will comprise two E-fat comets, two
B-fiat comets. two E-fiat altos, two B-tiat
tenors, one barytone, two E-fiat tubas. one
pair cymbals, one tenor drum and one
bass drum. Dr. Chase, the resident ply
stefan of the asylum, is of the opinion that
the inmates should be treated as sane
persons and that every effort should be
made to advert their attention and thoughts
from the fact of their being confined
in a public institution. With this in view
he has entertainments every two weeks
for the mild patients, such as minstrel
and magical performances, charades and
light comedies. The attendants at the
asylum compose the minstrel troupe, and
their shows are hailed with delight by the
couple of hundred inmates who are per-
mitted to attend. 1t is intended that the
band shall supply the place of an OFches-
ira at the entertainments, Mr.. F. D..
Sewer, of NOrristOwn, furnished the in
struments for the band at S1S5 60, dOnat-

He Wanted the Medicine.
Boston Globe.


In a suburban town where 'local op.
ton" decreed that a physicians prescrip-
ton must precede a sale of liquor, a man
entered drug store and called for a pint
of whisky.
"Have you a prescription? inquired
the druggist.
whats that!" asked the applicant.
The law was explained, and the Gus
toner rejoined:
"Wal, I'm an invalid, where can find
a doctorr
Il am a physician" suggested the drug
gist.
''You make it out, them said the in
valid.
This was done, the whisky put up, and
delivered with the gentle words;
"a dollar and a half.n
'Whuforg' inquired the invalid.
"a dollar for the prescription and fift!
cents for the whisky
.'Wal, guess don't care for the scrip
tom; Smother Teller may want it," said
the invalid, as he threw down half dol
lar and escaped.

me PoIitloal outlook in Iowa.


It's hardly probable that the Republic
cans will lose Iowa, and yet the situation
there does not look very encouraging for
them. Iowa IN past years has been re
yaried as the banner Republican State,
but il is certain not 10 be the banner State
this year. In 1870 it gave Garfield plu-
rallty Of 5000 and a clear majority OF
1900. Garfield's nomination was we'll
received throughout the State, and the
Republicans gave him an earnest and en-
thusiastic support.
Blaine's nomination was not well re-
ceived. In 1876 he was popular IN the
State and in 1880 be was still quite
favorite. but there was no great demand
for him at the June convention ne
Iowa Republicans preferred Arthur anu
he could have had the state Il ne A@u
made a contest for il.
The reasons for thinking that the oIAae
will 20 Republican by only very small
majority. if It goes Republican at all, are
,bst the Democrats and Greenbackers
nave fused. and are now acting harmoni-
ousIv together. They have united on the
electoral and state tickets and are GER
.ain 10 poll a very large vote. In los@ the
Greenbackers polled 5000 votes. In 1915
the Republicans for Governor had
pluralitv Of only 5000. When il i re-
memhared that in $50 Garfield had
plurality Of 5000 il will be readily I'M
derstood that a great change has been
.-1inz on in Iowa. II cannot be said that
the reduced plurality in 1SSS was owing
70 the fact that il was not a Presidential
wear. The vote was the largest
that year that was ever CAST
and il the Democrats and Green
hackers had voted together as they
propose TO do this year they would have
cast within 1000 Of as many votes as
the Republicans. The fusiOnists think
they can wipe out this margin this year.
To assist them they count on the fact that
hundreds OF Germans and ScandlnaYlans
who have always voted the Republican
ticket will this year vote against It on ac-
count OF the position Blaine occupies with
regard 70 prohibition. Ii would be re-
markable revolution if Iowa should
90 Democratic in November, but
stranger things have happened. The fact
Is that an over the West, and particu-
larlv in the Northwest, the Republican
PARTY is losing ground on account OF lis
protective tariff policy. The farmers I'M
derstand that that policy imposes a bur
den on them for the benefit OF monopollstlc
manufacturers.
