New York Mail and Express.
"a well known actress first divulged
the project to me-" dentist said "She
came in one day greatly excited. She
wanted to know if she could have dia-

conspicuous front tooth. The PROPOSE

staggered for the moment. But business

placidly remarked that such thing
could be done. She wanted to know

work and whether she would have to sit

her she Wouldn' have to sit long in the
chair. only long enough for me to saw
off twO-thirds of the tooth in which she

''What," she exclaimed, "can't you

the tooth?' | told her the diamond

her that if the diamond was put into the
natural tooth it could not be removed.
She would have to go along the street

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
A New Variety Of New York Girl
Has Suddenly Blossomed Forth
This Winter.

A New Variety Of New York Girl
Has Suddenly Blossomed Forth
This Winter.
We have developed new type of girl,
says the New York Mail and Express.
She is bred upon pure native stock,
but she is to all intents and purposes an
international girl. Half the debutantes
this winter are of this variety of girl, and
a very interesting variety it is. They
speak English, but they do it with
FTench OF German accent, and they
Haven't at.all our frank aboriginal ways.
They look pretty, but it is with an odd
foreign prettiness that tempts US to dub
them, as dealers in all sorts of wares do
their choicest stock, ''imported." They
are curious, English Continental hybrid
girls.
This is the progress of their growth.
They are born in the land of the free,
etc, and here they live until they are
perhaps fourteen Or fifteen years old.
Then mamma takes them abroad, just at
the formative period of their lives, and
establishes them in pension in pri-
Yate family. There the foreign nursery
man pruneS them and trains them on
trellises, encourages them in this direc-
tion and checks them in that, doing his
best by late cultivation to eradicate the
effects of running wild in our rank new
soil. By and by when the young wom-
An is old enough to be introduced,
mamma goes after her and brings home
the finished product. Mamma brings
foreign wardrobe at the same time and
she gives tea or a dinner or dance to
let people see this exotic of hers.
You know that she is an exotic the
minute you set eyes on her. She has
lost the ease, the freedom and the lib
erty of the American girl: she has not
put on quite the primneSS of the Jeune
lille, but her bearing is the oldest COM
mingling of the two. There is the nat
ural impulSiYenesS funnily toned down
by the required restraint. She does not
dash into festivities with the confidence
of young Queendom, fearing nothing,
suspecting nothing, enjoying all, push
ing her mother into the background, as
young America has done sometimes.
She stands demure in her Worth gown
beside mamma until a partner presents
himself, and as soon as the dance is
over is conducted straight back to mann
ma or chaperOn, nothing of the sex male
being permitted to exchange dozen
words with her away from the safe con
voy of that friend. She is under guar

FT is OVER.

The Burlington strike has collapsed.
The embargo at this end of the line has
been raised. and the whole matter is
virtually settled. 1t seems to have been
more. of tempest in teapot, anyway,
than anything else. What object Chief
ARTHUR had in view when he ordered
the strike is not apparent from
the results. There is nothing to
show that the brotherhood have gained
any advantage over the Burlington,
while they have Enthusiastically lost
prestige. 1t looks On the face of it very
much as if the other railroads had en-
couraged the strike as punishment to
the Burlington for refusing to join the
combine and that ARTHUR was play
into their hands.

SAFE IN CANADA.
Kentucky's Absconding Treas
urer Safe in Rogues' Paradise.

kentucky'S ADSCOnQlng IfeaS-
urer Safe in Rogues' Paradise.
LOUISVILLE, KY, March 22.-The de
::alcation of State Treasurer Tate grows
in amount as the experts examining his
accounts progress. Yesterday after
noon Auditor Hewitt announced to the
governor that the deficit was S197, ,764,
but later this sum was increased by
S19,240, and it is now thought the
total shortage will not be far
from S25O,OOO The books of the treas
urer's Office show extreme lOosenesS and
neglect, and it will be weeks before or
der can be brought out of chaos. Where
the money went to is still as much of a
mystery as ever. That Mr.. Tate accom-
modated his friends at all times is ad-
mitted. but that he loaned such sum as
this is hardly belived. His private pa
pers have not as yet been looked into.
The special committee appointed to ar
range articles of impeachment to be
lodged against Treasurer Tate is in
session this morning finishing up its
business preparatory to submitting its
report to the legislature. The attorney
general has caused to be issued attach
mentS against the known assets OF the
abScOnding treasurer. A special from
Frankfort says: A Democratic caucus
was held last evening which acted
Oh two different important matters.
Resolutions were offered requiring the
Democratic party to thoroughly inyesti-
gate the accounts of all state officers
and the administration of the affairs of
all state institutions. This the caucus
considered absolutely necessary to the
interests of the party. 1t was
further resolved that committe be
appoined to act in the matter and
to present resolutions through the
house requiring an examination of all
state offices by expert accountants.
Mr.. Theirmann, of this city, arrived
home from Canada last night. and says

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 22.-At
Richmond, KY, this afternoon, Ballard
Bronston shot and killed J. Gilbert Dud-
ley, deputy sheriff of the county. Dud-
ley was in McKenna's saloon. at the
billiard table when Bronston walked i'll,
deliberately rested his pistol on his left
hand. and without a word, fired. The
ball went through Dudley's brain, cauS-
ing instant death. Bronston is son OF
collector of internal revenue, L. >.
Bronston, of the Eighth Kentucky dis
trict. He gave himself UP to the officers.
Judge Henry Rice was an eye witness
of the affair, and gave the following
testimony at the inquest: He was stand
ing just inside the door OF the saloon
when BrOnSton entered and walked
back toward the billiard room. be then
turned and walked back toward Dudley,
who was also standing i'll the saloon.
When within few feet OF Dudley,
Bronston raised his pistol, and, steady
ing it with both hands, took deliberate
aim at his head and fired. Not word
passed between them. BronSton I'M
mediately surrendered himself to Judge
Rice, gave up his pistol and went to
jail. As he walked away he said TO
Rice:
Il made pretty good shot"
Rice answered: Eyes, but you might
have shot me-"
Bronston then replied: 'But L knew
what was shooting at"
The trouble grew out of an alleged III
timacy of Dudley with BronSton'S wife.
1t is stated by reliable parties that the
following will be proved in the trial
Dudley was sent several weeks ago TO
the house of Mr.. BrOnston to make a
levy upon some furniture. While he
was there Mrs. Bronston went out to
the house in buggy with negro
woman. In the afternoon Dudley
sent to still house for a quart OF whisky
and both he and Mrs. Bronston got
drunk. He stayed until night lie
then brought Mrs. BronSton to town In
the buggy and made the negro woman
ride his horse. They went to Dudley s
house, Mrs. Dudley being at her
mothers home in the northern part OF
the state. The negro woman was sent
away for something, and when she re-
turned found them both in their night
clothes. Just before day Dudley got the
buggy to take hera away He took her to
a house of ill-fame. Mr.. Deatherage, the
sheriff, dismissed Dudley from his EN-
ploy at once. The facts of the coroner S
inquest were laid before the grand jury,
which is in session now. The trial is
set for Tuesday. Dudley told some OF
his friends soon after the alleged init
macy that he did not take Mrs. Brons-
ton to his own house, and denied that he
had done anything improper. Near
Pineville last night, Galloway Jones re-
turned home Unexpectedly, and found
his wife in bed with jeff Durham. Be
fore Durham could escape, Jones shot
and killed him. eNIrs. Jones is a sister
of Andy Johnson, the noted desperate.

INDIAN TERRITORY.
Gail Hamilton Writes a Letter on
the Indian Territory Question.


Gail Hamilton's nerve needs no tonic,
though she is old enough to be modest
and has given it little rest, says the
Kansas City Times. Her last bold ar
ticle on the Indian Territory question is
not much but nerve. She locates Colo
rows war of last year in the territory
and declares that Bushyhead is chief of
the CherOkeeS. The American people
have to learn from her that it is fine
thing for halfbreedS and SquaW men to
absorb large bodies of land and become
Handed sQuires." 1t is undoubtedly
the secret desire of such Repub-
lieans as Miss Abigaifs relative,
James G. Blaine, that landed squires"
and corporate monOpoliStS shall get pos
session of the soil and commercial
machinery of the company, forming a
powerful upper class or ariStocracy,
but it takes a woman to rush into print
with the avOWal. She does not want the
democratic independence OF small farm
erS. Instead of a nation of home
owners, she would have nation OF
magnates and laborers. What she longs
to see among the Cherokees, she can
not help longing to see in the states. An
ideal system for the Indians must De to
her an ideal system for the whites. Gail
10 Il BOOu IltpubilCtll.
This confident female spent few days
in the territory last summer, and has no
diffidence about assuming that she is
qualified to tell the government what it
ought to do with the Indians. Let them
alone, she says. Let them retain their
communism and their iaZiness. Let the
squaw-men and halfbreeds become
''landed squires" with their trains of
white laboring SerfS. Let US reproduce
there, for poetry'S sake, the feudal Sys-
tenn of the middle ages, where the long
est pole knocked down the persimmOns
and brutality governed the mass of help
less slaves known as the people.
Then she dips her pen into ink of
bright color and sketches picture OF
the high civilization achieved by the
CherOkees. Such order and such public
schools, Such efficient Indian police
and such high-tilled farms. Such gentle
politics and such Suave young men of
lofty lineage. Can it be the same Cher
okee nation which keeps Judge Parker's
court at Fort Smith crowded with muir
derers and thieves? Is it the same
which arrayed the whole population in
two hostile camps, armed with Win
eheSterS and revOiverS; an election
quarrel which would have been a
bloody war but for the sharp
threats of Agent Owen? Is it the
same which drove the only man of tai
ent it possessed into Ostracism for fear
of his life, because he had brains and
patriotism enough to advocate decent
government? Is it the same which Op-
poses every effort of the authorities to
improve the condition of blanket In
dians? 1t is the same, and Gail Hamil-
ton knows no more about it than she
learned from her suave young chiefs
during two or three days at Vinita and
Fort Gibson.
An argument which in February, 1888,
reciteS that Colorow is an Indian terri
tory brave and that Bushyhead is chief
of the Cherokees, is supposed to repre-
sent Eastern opinion on the Indian
question. That is why it is hard to get
an Oklahoma bill through the ignorance
of the house of representatives.

Red Noses.

NEW 1OTh OtdI,
Tell the girl whose nose is red the
first thing she has to do is to give up
tight lacing. Nine times out of ten
that's the cause of the glowing effect.
She can put little camphOr on every
night and this may do it some good.
TIE chances are she doesn't know how
to wash her face; that is something the
average woman is ignorant of, She
may know how to scrub it until she
takes all the bloom off it, or she
may know how to dab it, giving
what the colored folks call slick
and promise" Now, here's
the way-one should wash ones face;
Have a big bowl full of hot water
when l say hot mean hot; Idon't mean
tepid-put in both hands and lave the
face thoroughly with this hot.water un-
til it is as red as the prOverbial lobster.
The hands are the proper thing to wash
the face with, because they are cloths
With intelligence added to them. Do
not dry the face, but just as quickly as
possible give it another laving with cold
water. The warm water cleanseS the
skin, the cold water gives vigor to it,,
makes the flesh firm, and prevents one
from catching cold.

A RIGHT GOOD ANSWER.
The Farmers of Wisconsin Are Not
for Protection.

Inc FARMERS Oh w ISCOHSin are NOC
for Protection.
The New York Tribune not long ago
sent out large number of circulars to
farmers organizations throughout the
country asking expressions upon tariff
taxation, says the La Crosse Chronicle.
These circulars were couched in cum
ming language, calculated to secure re-
plies favorable to protection. One of
these circulars was sent to Blue Mounds
grange No. 115 in this state. A large
meeting Of farmers was held in the
brick church in Blue Mounds Valley to
consider the matter and formulate an
answer, which resulted in the following
reply:
TO Henry Hill, Esq, Business Su-
perintendent of the New York Tribune
Dear Sir: The people of Blue Mounds
Grange No. lis, and the farmers gener-
ally of the Blue Mounds valley, as
sembled for the purpose of taking into
consideration the report of the com
mittee on Farmers 81 letter to the New
York Tribune that you send us for con-
sideration, and after discussing the
political subjects therein set forth, we
came to the following conclusions:
First-That we are i'll favor OF the
opinion of the president OF the United
States, that taxes should be reduced.
Second-That we are in favor of tar
iff for revenue only, not one cent for
protection.
Third-That we are in favor of inter-
nal revenue on whisky, beer and to-
baccO, as the law now stands.
Fourth-That we are in favor of such
laws as would accomplish the greatest
good to the greatest number.
Fifth-That we are opposed to class
legislation that taxes the many for the
benefit of the few, which we consider
legallzed theft.
JOHN NJ. WILSON, Chairman.
The meeting also instructed the sec
retary to send copy of the above to
their congressman, Mr.. La Toilette.
The Judge Subdued.
"A good story is related of Col. San
ders, says the Great Falls Tribune.
The eminent Helena lawyer was once
arguing a case before a certain judge
who was more noted for his sound judg-
ment and thorough knowledge of law
than for his courtesy for lawyer and
suitor. This judge grew impatient and
said to the gallant colonel:
''Your point is perfectly understood by
the court. Please make your argument
as short as possible"
81 am making it as short as possible" !"
smiled Sanders as he proceeded.
After few minutes the judge inter-
rupted him again, saying:
''You are taking up to much time,
colonel; we have many cases to hear,
and want you to understand that | am
sitting here for the dispatch of busi-
ness"

vigilante lawyer, bowling low, Il

AFTER A MURDERER.
Citizens of West Virginia Pursu.
ing Man Who Has Committed
Four Murders.

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, March o.
Henson G. c. Willis is being pursued
by a band of fifty citizens into the wilds
of West Virginia. He is charged with
four murders, all of which were COM
mitted about thirty miles from here.
According to the testimony of Willis
wife her husband a short time ago
killed Mr.. and Mrs. John Jennings and
threw their bodies into the Ohio river.
Three nights ago Willis murdered CIV.
Carter, his father-in-law. They quar-
relied over trivial matter, and Willis
fired five shots into his body, killing
him instantly. He then fled for the
woods. Ten men, including young
man named Thornton, started in pursuit
and overlook him near Hereford. Willis
opened fire upon the party, killing
Thornton and wounding two others.
The remaining men brought their dead
and wounded back to the river, and the
party was increased to fifty. They are
securing the woods, and will kill him on

to sell for him 600 shares of Richmond

Trowbridge on Monday last sold the

A Blind Mans Comparison

From Tolstoi's EXiles.
One blind man from birth asked a
man who could see: ''What color is
milk?''
The man who could see replied: "The
color of milk is like white paper"
The blind man asked: This color,
then, rustles in the hand like paper?''
The man who could seereplied: mo;
it is white like four"
The blind man asked: s'Then it is
soft and pliable, like -four, is it?"
1.-THE man who could see replied: mo;
it is simply white, like rabbit"
The blind man asked: "Then it is
downy and soft, like rabbit?''
The man who could see replied: ''No;
white is color exactly like snow"
The blind man asked: ''Then it is
cold, like snow, is it?' And in spite of
all the comparisons which the man who
could see made, still the blind man was
wholly unable to comprehend what the
color of milk really was.

DON'T WANT GRESHAM.

The friends of Judge GRESHAM in
Illinois and Minnesota are making very
valiant efforts ia behalf of their cham
pion's presidential candidacy, but it is
energy thrown away. The Eastern
monopolistic Republicans who run the
party and pay its campaign bills will
none of him. One of their organs, the
iron and steel mOnopolists' official organ,
commenting upon the GRESHAM
movement, ''wishes it to be dis
tinctly understood that no half
hearted, milk-and-water, revenue
reform Republican can defeat Mr..
CLEVELAND" In other words, official
notice is given to the party at large by
its owners that GRESHAM won't do, and
that if he is nominated the result Of the
election will be a foregOne conclu-
sion. Inasmueh as that is exactly
the situation at present, since a
large portion of the Republican
party, following the example of Col.
KING, Of Minneapolis, looks upon MIR.
CLEvELAND's reelection as inevitable,
the only significance attaching to the
utterance or the organ OF tne mOhop0-
lists is the evidence of readiness on the
part of those gentry to lose no time in
decrying any Republican who, possess
ing independence of character and SYM
pathy for the people, has the temerity
to aspire to political honorS at the
hands of his monopoly-ridden party.
The friends Of Judge GRESHAM might
as we'll recognize this fact at once. The
man whom the Republican convention
will nominate must be more in accord
with monopolistic ideas.
But, after all, the discussion is fruit
less since every day only serves to make
more evident the fact that the next pres
ident of the United States is already
selected.
