4 Chapter From the History of War OF
determination.
To quiet an Instruction among the
tlies inhabiting the house which we pay
a high rent per month for, we one day
this week purchased sheet Of this
sticky fly paper. The track on this
kind of paper is supposed TO be several
seconds heavy for flies. The manufact-
urers even hint in type seven inches
high that the walking on it is so ex-
ccedingly bad for flies that they will
mire down and never get across.
The prospect for fly promenade
on It is certainly very poor, some,
thing which they evidently noticed, as
they boycHttcd it from the start. We
tried running them down and sticking
them onto the paper. This was slow
and far from satisfactory.
We afterwards mounted the paper on
the broom and slashed it around the
room ten or fifteen times and found
that the plan was very successful. The
first sweep brought down costly vase
which warm political friend, who is
also in the grocery business, presented
Us with on the occasion of our pur-
chasing II can Of baking powder of
him. Another wild sweep and an ele-
CANT plaque, painted by our wife and
representing pale blue tree ON vel
low background, was In ruins, Our
experience was that it is not difficult to
cxterminate the fly in this way,
Mounted on a chair in the center OF
the parlor or drawing-room, and swing
ing the death-dealing paper about, we
soon made it very uncomfortable for
him amid the wreck of costly paintings,
the fall of the heavy lambrequin and
the general smash-up of the marble
statue, the high-priced hangings, the
imported chandelier, the jointcd stove
pipe, the plastering and the decorated
profanity. Life to the ill-starred fly
on that occasion was but a hollow,
bowling mockery. No CLEAN of hope
shone athwart the murky depths
of the black night Of despair
which shut down around those
flies. Everything pointed to a hor.
riblc death without o ray of hope. The
accumulated wealth of years crashed
around him and there was no currant
pie in which to hide. All was dark,
ness, all was gloom, all was despair

because it was not properly advertis-

several counties proceeding were instituted.
There probably never was such an after
election investigation into personal records
as is now in progress In this state. Every de-
feated candidate for the legislature or for
congress expects to be able TO prove that his
successful opponent was elected by fraud or
is wholly ineligible. Congressman Lowry.
Of the Twelfth Indiana district was here Fri
day, and had In bis possession a certified
copy Of the record in the Kosciusko county
court showing that Capt J.. b White, who
beat him for congress Last week, took out bis
naturalization papers ON the day before the
election. Judge Lowry said he would
contest Whites scat in congress.
"He Is clearly Ineligible the
congressman continued, "for the constitu
ton plainly prohides that q member Of the
house Of representatives must have been q
citizen Of the United States for at least seven
years bef ore he is elected. The precedent, or
rather the authorities, are on my side. In
