"SOME PUNKINS."

A Nebraska Guest Paralyzes a Ho-
tel Ryan Audience.
J.B. Wilmer, of Orde. Neb., was at
the Ryan yesterday, and took particular
pride in exhibiting some mammoth
wheat heads ulled from the fields sur
rounding his native town, to a group of
admiring Minnesotians in the hotel ro-
tunda. II suppose these are selected"
said one of the group, referring to the
phenomenally large heads. EYES," re-

"How are watermelons down your

"Watermelons? Oh, watermelons all

Indigestion

is not only distressing complaint, Of
L itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and Indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years L suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digeSted at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that l took seemed to do
any permanent good until commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla I could see an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each day, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, 1 found myself well

duties. The medicine has given me o

A Mule Knocked Out by Ponies.

An obstinate mule met his death in a
singular manner near Poneto. nine miles
north of this city, says the Fort Worth
Gazette. Wesley Maddox, with his fam
lily, was driving span of Texas ponies,
when the tongue came down. The ponies
ran away. going at frightful speed,
but keeping in the middle of the road.
A mule, coming from the opposite direc-
ton. came to stop and disputed the
right of way with the frightened team.
Without Stacking speed one pony lodged
to the right, the other to the left. The
end of the pole caught the mule at the
base of the throat and was buried in its
body. The wreck was bad one, but
the occupants were not seriously in
jured.

in the pasture scented the salt and
got after the calf. They licked the hair

catch the calf to wash it, but the Great

kept out of his way. The boy, calf and
farmer are all unhappy. The colts are
the only ones that got any fun out of it.

dives and swims with fearless grace off
the long pier at Narragansett, dresses
herself for these water gymnastics in
white from top to toe. Her golden locks
are securely tucked under co9uettish
white oil silk cap with little white
tassel bobbing on the crown. A white
twilled flannel goods interviewer with
silk forms the blouse shirt and tunic

gathered at the knee to cover the tops
of the long-ribbed white stockings and
finished by strap and small buckle.
Where her wide sailor collar turns away

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.
The Former Negotiating for n Piece o1
 Desirable Territory.

The Former Negotiating for Piece oi
 Desirable Territory.
 LONDON, Nov. 25.-A story comes from Odessa that Russia is negotiating with the Porte for possession of DOT tion of Turkish Albania in exchange for receipt in full of the war indem- nifty imposed upon Turkey by the set clement of the Turco-Russian war.
 Russia long time ago gave up the hope of recovering any of tho money due her, while the Sultan, if he ever does allow himself to be worried by such matters, had despaired of ever being able to divert from the sums he chances from time to time to borrow for his pressing needs an amount that would be likely to appease his unfortunate creditor. Russia, taking advantage of the Sultan's impecunious condition, offers to forgive him the debt if the Porte will surrender a desirable piece of territory, which happens to be one that Turkey is just now experiencing much difficulty in governing and whose continued possession is likely to lead the Sultan into trouble. In the negotiations now pending it would seem that each will eagerly bite at the bait thrown out by the other.
 Russia will cancel claim which she has long since ceased to regard as of any value in consideration of Turkey s transferring territory she is glad to get rid of and each will be happy in the belief that the other has been out Witted,

 WAsIIINGTOI. Nov. 25.-A table is printed giving the strength of the five prominent Republican candidates for the Speakership of the House.
 It gives to Mir. Reed 56 votes, to MT. Me ckinley 4, Mr. Cannon 24, MT. Hen derson IS and Mr. Burrows 12 votes. Seventeen are recorded as doubtful and likely to be scattered among the various candidates. Many of these scattering votes, it is thought, will go to the man who has the best chance of winning. If this is not clear by the cast on the carly ballots for those candidates who are lowest ill the order of proba bilities, which will afford the op portunity of holding reserve vote for a critical period.
 In this table Mr. Henderson is cred ited with IS votes, though he only claims 10, those of the Iowa delegation. At the headq quarters of the other can didates, however, 13 votes are conceded to him at the outset, so that he, per haps, presents the rare spectacle of . candidate undereS timating his own strength.
 Mir. Mckinleys friends believe that all he now needs to win is to hold sol idly his present strength, because he is the strongest second both East and West. The Republican membership of the House is l6y, and it will require S5 votes to nominate if all are present.

WANTED TO LYNCH HIM.
A New Jersey Coachman Pursued by
 Little Girls Father and His Friends.

PATERSON, N. J., Nov. 25.-There would have been alynching in the little town of Taylorville had a posse of in dignant citizens been successful in their search for a half-minded coachman, named John Liddane, who made an un- successful attempt to assault Maggie Osabo, 14-year-oid girl. Maggie lives with her father, John OSabo, a cigar maker, her mother and her little sister Mary, aged 5 years.
 On Saturday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, Mrs. Osabo sent the two girls to Fort Lee, about a mile distant, for groceries, After the basket had been filled, the girls found it very heavy, so they decided to take a short cut home by the way of Linwood avenue. It had begun to get dark, and just as the chil- dren reached a part of the avenue which leads through a short patch of woods, a man stepped out and. knocking the basket to the ground, seized Maggie and carried her into the woods.
 'Stay where you are," said he to Mary, Tor l will kill yer"
 to her mother that a man was killing Maggie. Mrs. OSabo siezcd a stout cane and rushed frantically to the scene. As she neared the place she saw the figure of a man skulSing away in the bushes. Maggie's would-be' assailant proved to be john Liddane, private coachman employed at Ridgewood. A posse, headed by the sheriff, found Lid dane early yesterday morning, and he is now i'll the county jail.

LATEST FROM BRAZIL.
The Government in Each State is Being
 Rapidly Organized.

Rapidly organized.
 WAsHINGToS, Nov. 25.-Dr. Valente, the Brazilian Minister, has received the following cablegram from Ruy Barbora, the Minister of Finance of the Provisional Government at Rio de Eaneiro:
 All the provinces have signified their adher1nce to the Republic and Provisional Government without any resistance or protest. The government in each State is being rapidly organized. A decree of the Provisional Government has extended the right of suffrage to all citizens except only those unable to read or write. The Arch bishop, the head of the church, has conferred his solemn benediction upon tho new Gov ernment and the Republic"
 Dr. Valente places no credence what ever in the published reports coming from Europe limiting at instability of the new Government, and probable breaking up of Brazil into three separ- ate States. He regards the Republic as fixed and permanent. and that the new Congress, which will be elected under the enlarged suffrage proposed by the Provisional Government, will com pie te the organization of the new Republic in manner entirely satisfactory to the people of Brazil.

A Report that BAnker Gorham Has Paid that Amount to Ills Putative Son.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.--Ithas been common talE in this city for several Gays that Arthur c. Williams, alias Ar thur C. Gorham, who recently became an inmate of a jail for passing an all legged forged check for $500, has made an agreement with his putative father, Arthur C. Gorham. the rich banker of Boston. It was also said that an inn 7nense fortune had been settled on wil- Hams. Williams, after being some time in prison in this city, was taken to Los Angeles, where his case was finally dis missed. He remained there a short sime, and then disappeared. About Q month ago he came back to this city, and has since been quietly living with } friend in the western addition.
 According to the rumors A. c. Cor ham, of Boston, also arrived here two weeks ago, and since then he and the young man have been negotiating for a settlement. The latter left for home a few days ago, after having as was sta ted, settled the gigantic sum of Sl,00O, 900 in per cont.

FRANCE AND BRAZIL
4 French Deputy Wants thf New Republic Recognized.
REPLY OF THE GOVERNMENT
A Feeling Manifested that Danger Exists of Reaction Towards Monarchism.

It is Asserted that the Pope Desires the
 Restoration of tho Bourbon Dynasty in
 Brazn-Frcnch and Spanish Republicans
 Opposed to the schemc-Dr. valente's
 Latest Instructions.
 LONDON, Nov. 25.-Deputy Hubbard, of the French Chamber of Deputies, will question the Government to-day whether the French Republic proposes to recognize the Republic of Brazil. The general impression is that the re- ply will be to the effect that precedent forbids recognition of the provisional government, but that as soon as the constituent assembly, which is to be called by the Provisional Government, has announce, I a definite form of gov ernment on the authority of the people of the country, France will hasten to recognize her as a sister Republic.
 It is likely that this attitude will fail to satisfy the more radical members of the Chamber, and that they will insist upon some immediate action being taken to show that France prefers the Republican to any other form of gov ernment in Brazil.
 There is a general feeling manifested among Republicans and Radicals throughout Europe that danger exists of a reaction towards monarchism in Brazil, and such governments or Flu rope as are of the popular type should give countenanco so far as possible to the revolutions a Rio. This is consid- cred appropriate, also. as a legitimate offset to the secret but nevertheless un- doubted efforts of the monarchists throughout Europe to create sentiment and if possible to effect tangible aid for their representative who has been dismissed from service in South America.
 It Is openly asserted in Paris that the Pope is also intriguing in favor of this movement to bring about the restora- Zion of the Bourbon dynasty in Brazil. ,It is not considered possible or advis- able to seek the replacement of Dom Pedro himself, but it is hoped that circumstances will arise which will make it possible to secure the throne for his grandson, who has some popular qualities, and would probably secure the warm allegiance of many Brazil ians who would prefer the empire to a repu blic, provided tho former were ad ministered in little more progressive fashion than was possible in the latter years of Dom Pedro'S reign, hampered as it was by the bigotry and ulUra-con- servatism of the Princess Isabelle and hcr adherents
 The French and Spanish Republicans are anxious to prevent any steps being taken to further this scheme, and they are endeavoring to secure action by their governments similar to that taken by the little Swiss confedcra tion, which has not hesitated to instruct it's repre- sentative in Brazil to recognize the Provisional Government as the legiti- mate successor of the Empire.
