MR.. MAGUIRE HERE.
A Large Piece of Information Al.
most aMisoveriooked.

Large Pieces OF Information AL
most "Misoveriooked."
Cornelius Mcguire OF Eddyville,
Iowa, made a desperate attempt to
break into print Friday morning, and
only, desisted when told that his name
would be pubIiShe ed IN full.
Mr.. Mcguire, who is large, red
man with iron-gray hair, is road
master of the Iowa Central road. Last
week no was attending II four days
convention OF railroad foremen in the
city, and on Friday morning he drop.
ped into the Office TO have an under
standing with the editor.
''For the last fifteen years." said
Mr.. Mcguire, who was told to state his
grievance to the snake editor, II have
been regular subscriber to your
weekly paper and l want a square
deal. Here we have been sitting in
convention for four days and you have
neglected to give us any notice. All the
other papers graSpei at the Opportu-
nifty last night and | want to know
why you folks didn't come to time
What were tho names OF those
papers?"
"Well, there was the Chicago Daily
and couple OF Others replied the
aggrieved Mr.. Mcguire, making a
tremendous effort recall the names.
A careful inspection of the files
failed to disclose any mention OF the
convention, fact which greatly aston
ished the railroad man.
That's funny" he said, seating
himself in the editors richly upholster-
ed chair, land it's probably a misover-
look on the part of the press. But you
people are away behind the times.
Down in st. Louis last year we had
five reporters at the convention, and
they put my name in all the papers,
marked copies of which | sent home.
But if you want some points now | can
give 'em TO you," said the obliging
Mr.. Mcguire.
On being assured that any little
courtesy on his part would be properly
appreciated, Mr.. Mcguire proceeded:
well, you might mention that G.
Mcguire and daughter of Eddyville,
Iowa, are visiting in Che city, and that
they paid The Times u visit in its Of
fee. That is all, l guess Say, you
might lend me your city directory, he
remarked, as his eye fell on the book.
Il want to take it around to the hotel
and look up the addresses of some rel
ativos I've got living in this town. No?
Can't spare it? All right; don't want
to see EN- very bad, anyhow" And
Mr.. Mcguire, having received a salts
factory square deal, took his departure.

SAILORS BOARDIyG UousE.

The book of designs contained about
one hundred gems of art, to be drawn
in india ink and Chinese vermillion,
with the name of each design attached,
which he would pierce in ones desh at
a stated price per gem. When the sailor
who wishes to join the exclusive set
finds that he must be decorated, he goes
to the artist and gets the book OF de-
signs He selects a subject for etching
providing he has the price, while the
artist prepares the ink. If an arm
picture is desired the victim takes q
seat on stool facing the skin worker,
who dips the pointed end OF the stick
in the ink and traces the picture. If II
body picture is desired the victim takes
off his shirt and lays himself upon a
cask or board. After the sketch is COM
pleted, then the inquisition begins with
the business end of the stick. The ex-
ecutioner draws the martyrs "hide"
taut with his left hand, while with the
right, holding the stick like pen, he
follows the lines Of the sketch, jabbing
the needles into the quivering flesh of
the victim and then prying them out
again with the most reckless abandon.
d
plank ont of a sidewalk with a crow
bar, you have seen the precise action,
except on a very much smaller scale.
And yet you landlubbers will ask if the
, operation is painful.
GLOW long does is take to make a
picture?" | asked him.
Wall, that depends on the size OF
the pictur, ye see. 1t takes one dip a
ink t trace linz an inch long. 1t
mos centrally takes me an hour to
make forearm pictur. The body pic
turs are never finished t. once"
He told me that at the close of the
operation the afflicted part is dressed
in wet bandage, and, though painful
for few days, soon heals and is ready
for exhibition.
The portfolio of this artist contains
a selected list of subjects consisting of
mysterious works OF art and marine
views. The authors of the subjects |
might mention few selected ones
a most ingenious and happy combi-
nation is Faith, Hope and Charity"
This is an arm piece and costs the sum
of one dollar. 1t can be worked in one
or two colOrS as desired. In the fore
ground is a low and very red heart
Behind this marvel of anatomy are the
cross and anchor, representing Faith
and Hope" From the anchor ring dam
giles red rope and the top of the cross
is finished off with what is supposed to
represent halo in vermilliOn. The
price for this gem makes it favorite
among tars and it is an easy working
piece.
Sunrise at Sea" makes a pretty
hand or arm design and is produced at
seventy-five cents a sunrise.
A design intended only for the
breast, is found in the painting called
the Monitor and the Merrimac,n which
Is produced for six dollars. The sub
ject is true to nature, and thrilling
spectacle, representing the famous
vessels in terrific combat on the hirsuts
bosom OF the mariners. This inilama-
tory sketch and naval engagement is
considered extra, and the sailor who
has it pierced into his hide is the pride
and envy Of his fellows.

We never advertise a house unless we have
perfect confidence in it, and for that reason we
take pleasure in calling the attention of our
readers TO the advertisement of IounkCr Bros
which appears in another column. This iirD
came to Iowa about the time Iowa came Gas a
State) and settled first in Keokuk, where they
built up a business which soon expanded to
such proportions that it became necessary to
look about them for city which was growing
at a rate sufficiently rapid TO keep pace with
their business. Des Moines was selected
such city, and years ago they founded at the
capital of this great State business that has
grown to such an extent as to properly enable
them to call themselves the greatest Dry Goods
house i'll Iowa. Whatever is true of Des Moines
as regards energy, enterprise, pluck and de-
termination to get to the front, is true Of this
house, and every pulsation of the great heart
of commerce which has sent the life blood of
business rushing like a flood through every
vein and artery of the capital city has been
echoed by a corresponding throb at Band SIS
Walnut street. Last spring it was found i'm
possible to longer give proper attention to the
wants of all customers on the large floor space
then at command and an enlargement was de-
cided upon The buildingwas purchased en-
tire, an army of workmen employed, and to-
day, after six months of hard work, visitors to
the city are shown through the largest and
finest Dry Goods house west of Chicago. Five
entire floors, 41yl32 feet, are devoted entirely
to the transaction of this immense business.
4 special feature is the mail order department.
A semi-annual catalogue is issued describing,
illustrating and giving prices of the hundreds
of different articles they carry, and these are
sent all over the State. By this medium a lady
can make up as intelligent and satisfactory
order at home as though she were in their
store, and the large number of orders received
daily shows that this opportunity is appreclat-
ed. Do you ask us the reason of such un-
bounded success! We answer in one word,
confidence. Younker Bros make every repre-
sentation good concerning each item they sell.
People have found this out and they knoW that
should an article purchased prove other than
perfectly satisfactory they have only to return it
and get their money. Des Moines may well be
proud of business houses which by their enter
prise add so largely to her general prosperity.

PICTURESQUE America.

To no part of this great country can the above
remark be more appropriately applied than TO
that section known as the great Northwest.
With its boundlcss prairics, mountains, rivers
and innumerable lakes, and wonderful res Dllrges
in minerals and grain, it is truly magnificent
country. And what could be more beautiful at
this season of the year, when the grand forest
mOnarchs of the Northwest woods take on the
rainbow tints and colors of autumn III the
travellers, instead of visiting foreign countries
and climes, would pay u little more attention to
their own land, they would find beautiful scenes
and wonderful mountains and lakes that do not
lose anything by comparison with those of
Europe. Travellers rave over the beauties OF
the Irish and Italian lakes, but let them see the
beautiful lakes of Minnetonka, Calhoun, Harriet
and White Bear in Minnesota and the foreign
sheets of inland water, no matter how beautiful
they may be- fade into insignifcance. To add
more to the attraCtiyencss of these beautiful
spots, they can be reached at a trihing expense
compared to a European trip. Any of the roads
from the east will land the traveller in the city OF
Chicago, the metropolis of the West, where the
best and finest equipped railroad in the North
west, the Chicago, ST. Paul ~ Kansas City Rail
way, will safely carry you to either st. Paul OF
Minneapolis. No railroad either East or West is
better equipped or fitted with tinerlocOmotives,
first class passenger coaches, dining or sleep
ing ears than the Chicago. 81. Paul& Kansas City
Railway. Weknow whereof we speak in regard
to this line of railroad and advise all our fellow
travellers in going West to patronizc the Chica
go, st. Paul & Kansas City Railway and fol
the future they will endorse it as highly as We
do. For full information write to w. Il. BU

Young Chinese Oarswomsn.

l visited prisons, temples, pagodas,
mills, shops, duck-hatchings, and
everything that was OF interest says
Canton letter. To see the ducks
hired boat managed by three women,
and spent over three hours on the
liver. i have had occasion 10 remark
everywhere in my travels the decent
behavior of women. One hardly ex-
poets much in u country where little
girl babies are sometimes killed or
sold into any kind OF slavery because
of the poverty of the mother. Here
were three women who were born on a
boat and whose whole life is spent on
one, and yet they had as much decency
and natural modesty us if they had re-
ceived a Sunday-school education. A
fine, strong girl of 10 sat on the deck
of the bow vigorously pulling ker oar
in front of me ana smiling through a
beautiful set OF teeth. She wore wide
trousers under kind OF sack or short
gown; her feet were bare. Every
time breath of air ruffled her sack
or trousers she instinctively pulled
them down just as a well-bred Ameri-
can girl would her frock, though there
were not any more exposure than a
well-formed ankle. Most OF the large
junks, learned, had women captains.

The water front along the East

money lasts. At one OF these boarding
houses was lucky enough to find Jack
Durston, 1.-THE king OF tattOoers," who
landed here one day last week. Jack
S grizzled veteran and one Of the
Kind that enjoys fight just for the
sake OF sociability, but he is an able
skin artist there is no doubt about

pectatOr! He likes tobacco better than
Dread and can score dead centre every
time in a spittoon twenty feet away.
In fact | never saw more accurate

He had an array of surgical imple-
ments that would have done honor to
L greater barbarian than himself. The
implements of his craft consisted of
small round stick about the size of q
lead pencil, llattened for about an inch
At one end, on which were placed side
by side with points projecting. half
dozen fine needles bound fast with
linen thread, and so arranged that the
points formed one side OF triangle.
A shallow vessel for ink, and a book
of designs completed the outfit of this

Some of the prettiest women in the
country are right here in the Treasury
department, says the Washington Star.
A great many Of them are Washington
ians, but as u class, they represent the
beauty OF the whole country. They
are blondes and bruneUtes, short and
tall and medium; some plump, some
queenly, some of 1.-the and willowy
form they IRE fairly the types OF the
several great cities and about all the
states OF the union. In that one build
ing, covering four blocks, is to be
found more beauty th1n hunt through
many large cities might discover. A
large portion Of the female clerks are
young, or ut least on the minus side of
old maidhood. Office life is not pro-
motive Of longevity, and many OF the
elderly women have died off or reached
an age beyond business.
Those who have come into the de-
partment within the past four or five
years are mostly young women, who
have just passed through the normal
schools and have entered the govern
ment service through the civil service
examination, They are bright lot of
young women. In many cases it is,
perhaps, that they are the prettiest
girls Of the family, ichinspires them
with an ambition beyond the drudgery
of housewOrk. or the trials of a school
marin and induces them to strive for
the more agreeable work and better
pay under the civil service. And this
may account for there being such q
preponderance OF good looks.
