a gathering just now. The announce
ment said a "cold lunch will be
served" Was that a piece of grim
and cruel humor on the part of Sec.
retary Whitney, to gather our outgo
ing Democratic brethren in melaD-
choly couclave and feed them on cold
vittles? Then the weather, not to be
inappropriate, turned the coolest it
has been this year, and it was cold
day when the brethren gathered around
the cold lunch.
A very affecting reunion took place
on the floor of the Senate the other
day between Senators Bowen and
Sabin. For the FIRST time since both
have failed of re. election they met
each other in the Senate chamber.
These two Senators are the only Sena.
tors on the Republican side whose
terms expire in March, who made a
canvass to succeed themselves and
we're not re elected. This established
bond of sympathy between them
and they spent good part of the
afternoon in an exchange of views.

NEARLY every Legislature finds
some striker who bangs away at co.
operative insurance. This year is no
exception. A member named Kreps
from Frankhn Co. has incubated a
bill debarring all beneficial insurance
organizations from operating in this
State further than to pay 1890 for
funeral expenses at death, or a stated
sum of money during disability"
This would bar out all the assessment
companies, and is solely in the interest
of the old line companies. - Tidioute

this if he is little off on the fence

legislature" will take little stock in
squeezing out the beneficial orders,
which are the poor mans means of
securing his family and kindred
against want and distress.

The butchers association with Senator

denied that any such combination ex-

stock raisors have been pronounced
purely imaginary Tho unwilling

ofthe existence OF such n combination
and clearly reveal - .Gi4,aoVus char-
ucJer We hayo not space this week
for q complete report Of tho testimony
but submit below some Of the most in
tcresting facts elected. The princi.
pulls Of the great combine refused TO
appear before the committee and their
testimony was not therefore obtained.
Sylvester Wilcox Of Elgin, a large
buyer and seller Of live stock, and u
dealer in dressed beef, testified that
there had boon a constant decline in
the price Of beef cattle in the last few
years without any decline in the price
to tho consumer. This decline in the
value Of beef on foot has been steady
and continuous the price in 1889 be-
ing nearly one hundred per cent less
than in 1880. The witness further tes-
tilted that the freight tariff on live
stock being higher than on dressed
beef the small dealers considered it to
thoir advantage to buy dressed beef in
Chicago and that thereby Chicago
had gained controlof tho live stock
market
Mr.. Halliwoll was asked; "Do you
not think tho depressed condition Of
trade III ST. Louis is duo to some kind
Of combination which discriminates
against st. Louis dressed beef in favor
Of thatshipped from ChicOgoP
"No sir, i do not"
"Can you give any reason why the
| ST. Louis trade should not be increHs-
ng|
II am unable to state, unless it be
on account of The facEthat ST. Louis
has a reputation for being little slow
or than Kansas City or Chicago in
getting business"
This caused Senator Vest to ex-
claim: did you never hear Of the
'eveners' combination
The witness admitted that he had
some twelve years ago.
Senator Vest asked: "Well did you
not hear that q clique OF Chicago
shippers made a combination with
some of the railroads by which cheap
er rates we're obtained from Chicago,
and that by this st. Louis business
was ruinedp
The witness had heard some talk Of
such things. The Senator pressed
him harder and brought in the name
of Wilson, Morris and Allerton and
some others as having been parties tc

A Tooth from q Mans Nose,

VIM. Barnhardt was kicked by a
horse sixteen years ago and some of
his teeth were knocked out of place.
When he had recovered from the
injuries resulting from the kick he
was troubled with a dull headache,
which has scarcely ceased day
since that time. He also had "a dis
tressed feeling in the upper portion
of his nose and supposed he was suf-
fering from catarrh. In the course
of time he discovered what he
thought was an extra piece of bone,
and a doctor dug out one of the
teeth. Since that time he had been
troubled still more. There was still
another tooth and that had grown
lonesome and longed to get out. The
doctors undertook the job of arrest
ing the rowing tooth, and captured
it. This is probably the first record
of tooth being extracted from a
PERSONS nose.-Ogden Gal. Com

Mother.

Lord Macaulay pays the following
beautiful tribute to his mother:-
"Children, look to those eyes;
listen to that dear voice; notice the
feeling Of just single touch that is
bestowed on you by that hand!
Make much Of it while yet you have
that most precious of all Gods gifts,
II loving mother. Read the un-
fnthomablc love of those eyes, the
kind anxiety of that touch and look,
however slight your pain. In after
life you may have friends, but never
will you have again the inexpress-
ible love and gentle way shed upon
you that none but mother can be-
stow. Often do ! sigh in the strug-
giles with a hard, uncaring world,
for the sweet deep security l felt
when of an evening, nesting on her
bosom, | listened to some quiet tale
suitable to my age, read in her un-
firing voice. Never can forget her
sweet glances cast upon me when /
appeared asleep, never her kiss of
peace at night, Years have passed
away since we laid her by my father
in the old churchyard, yet still her
voice whispers from the grave and
her eyes watch over me as visit
spots long since hallowed to the
memory of my mother"
