Sherman, as the apostle Of the bloody
shirt, is a good deal like the small boy
who suddenly began to cry without
apparent provocation, and who, in re-
sponse to maternal inquiries, explained
that he had mashed his finger the day
before and didn't cry then because he
was playing and didn't have time.

the voters of Ohio that they pay no

No better evidence OF the insincerity
and keartlessnesa Of the organs Of haze
and sectional animosi.y need be adduc-
ed than the fact that these tame organs
permit the subject Of the "bloody shirt"

and agitate it only during political

point to 40 fresh grievances and when
there are no yoicss crying OUT for JUS

The forty days allowed by President
Cleveland to the cattlemen who had
been illegally occupying land in Indian
Territory have expired and it speaks
volumes for the courage Of the President
that ii inspired those cattlemen with so
much respect that they have moved
right out without calling on the army
to expediate their moving.

How a Taunt Originated.

New Jersey is sometimes jocularly re-
ferred to as a foreign country by per-
sons who do not know the origin of their
little joke. After the downfall of the
first Napoleon, his brother, Joseph, who
had been King of Spain. and his nephew.
Prince Murat, sought refuge in the
United States. bringing with them great
wealth. Joseph tried to induce several
States to pass an act to enable him as
an alien to hold real estate, but they all
refused. Finally the New Jersey Leg
islature granted to him and Prince Muir
at the privilege of purchasing land.
They bought a tract at Bordentown,
built magnificent dwellings and fitted
them up in royal style with pictures,
sculptures, etc. Joseph Bonaparte's s
residence was the finest in America. He
was liberal with his money and made
many friends. The Philadelphians were
envious of the good fortune of the Jer-
seymen in securing the two millionaires;
and taunted them with being foreign
ers." and with importing the King of
Spain to rule over them. The taunt
stuck and is still repeated by people who
have no idea of how it originated.-At.
lanta Constitution.

The Russian Stove.

The Russian stove is made of fire re-.
sisting porcelain, is always ornamental.
and frequently highly artistic, hand
some article of furniture. Internally it
is divided by thick fire-clay walls into
several upright chambers of flues, usu-
ally six in number. Some dry firewood
is lighted in a suitable fire place, and is
supplied with only sufficient air to eff
feet combustion, all of which enters be-
low and passes through the f1ues. The
productions of combustion being thus
undiluted with unnecessary cold air, are
very highly heated, and in this state
pass up and down through the different
compartments. At the end of this long
journey they have given up most of their
heat to the twenty-four heat absorbing
surfaces of the fire-clay walls. Then all
communication with the chimney is cut
off; the fire is put out, having done its
work. and the interior of the stove has
bottled up its caloric ready for emission
into the room, and, passing through the
non-conducting walls of the stove, is
radiated into the apartments.-Philadel-
phiG Press.

Not His Fault.

A County Treasurer in New Hamp-
shire was forced to acknowledge the
other day that the county strongg-box
was not only empty. but that his books
wouldn't balance within $4,000. There
was rumpus and an investigation. but
the Treasurer carried serene expression
and was ready to answer all questions.
.It really isn't my fault" he pro-
ceeded to explain. ..You know we want
q new bridge over Lickskillit Creek? l
hoped to build it without calling on the
taxpayers. That $4,000 went to buy
wheat, and calculated on a profit OF at
least $1,000 in one deal"
ssAnd you lost all?"
EVERY dollar. Wheat went right down
on me-"
"You might have known itr' shrieked
one of his bondsmen.
s.How? Do control the wheat mar
ket? Tn sorry, gentlemen, real sorry.
but have the consolation of knowing
that while my two bondsmen lose
$4,000, the toiling masses will have the
benefit of the decline in wheat. Wall
