Viii Make 1t Wdrnt for Teller
New York World.

A'O" IOih hOLIus
The election of Secretary Teller will force
some pretty sharp fighting between him and
Hill, the present senator. There has been o
very bitter feud between these men for
years. Hill has been collecting q number Of
facts against Teller, but has been rather
cautions about using them. He said before
going to Colorado that when he returned to
Washington, no matter what might be the
outcome of the 1senatoral election, he in
tended to make it very warm for Teller. He
has been collecting the evidence to show
that Teller is directly interested in the Illegal
leasing of lands in Indian territory. Scna-
tor Hill has said that he could bring out
enough to drive Teller out of the cabinet.
This is doubtful. The cabinet that
retains Benjamin Brewster will
not stand upon such trifes
as can be brought against the character of
Secretary Teller. Senator Hill saws he went
to the president several months ago to pro-
test against the appointment of a register of
the land Office at Gunnison, Col. The selec-
tion had been made by Teller and approved
by the president Senator Hill says that
he showed the president that the man just
appointed was gambler, and was even then
engaged in running the principal gambling
saloon in the place. He protested against
the character of the appointment, but he was
pOwerless to have it changed. Senator Hill
Is more of an Independent to-day than he is
u partisan Republican. He thinks that any
change in the govern ment would be an i'm
provement SO far at least as the Govern
ments management of western affairs Is
concerned.

THE Republican press is growing a good
deal over tue discovery that THOMAS JEFFER-
soN's wine bill Curing his two terms in the
presidency amounted to $1,000, and their
papers are disposed to taunt Democrats with
their talk about Jetfersonian simplicity.
When it is remembered that Mr.. JEFFERSON
paid his wine bills out Of his
own pocket, and did not charge
them up to the stationery" account,
and that for the eight years his wine bin only
averaged about $50 per day.the cost of one

When SEEN this sign a-hangin'
On shanty by the lake:
Here's whar yer gets yer doughuuts
Like yer mother used ter mass."
I've seen grizzly show his tsetn;
I've seen Kentucky Pete
Drew out his shooter n sdvise
A 'TenderfoOt" to treat;
But nuth1n' ever TUT me down
N made my benders shake
Like that sign about the doughnuts
That my mother used ter make.
A sort O. mist shut out the ranch,
IN standin' there instead,
iseen an old white farmhouse,
With its doors all painted red.
A Whit came through the open door
Wuz sleepin' or awake?
The smell was that of doughnuts

Where hOneysuckles grew;

In tidy dress of black;

But now it was the boss who spoke:

Don't forget the dust-bath. Have q

Beyond that were Headingly and Kirk

maid, and full Of life, Steracker paid
three months rent in advance and took
possession of the house. In few days
an elderly woman arrived to act as gen.
eral servant, and the old woman hither-
to in charge was dismissed.
Though Mr.. Steracker was blind, he
was soon able to find his way alone to
the river side, where he would sit foi
an hour at time, talking to the chill

the scenery. He would sit in the cot
