The machinery hall of the Paris expo

constructed under one root, and this glass
filled covering is supported on twenty
arches of iron hinged at base and apex 80

Tho length of the building is nearly Loo
feet, its width $40 feet and its height 40
feet. A gallery thirty feet from
tho floor extends the entire length
on both sides. At the four corners
are steam plants furnishing abundant
power for the machinery. In the Ameri-
can section are three different machines for
setting type, the Macmillan, the Thorne
and the Mergenthaler linotype machine.
The last named presents the most striking

solid bar for each line, the matrices being
then returned automatically To their proper

The national gala-day brought the
largest and best picnic this town has
had for six years at least. It attract
ed parties from Bloomington, Napo-

began with song and prayer, follow
ed by the reading of the Declaration
of Independence by Mrs. Porter in
her happiest vein. After the wants
Of the inner man had been supplied,
the pleasant duties were resumed at
the speakers bower, which was taste
fully decorated with flowers and
evergreens. Mr.. HewsOn's earnest
address was highly satisfactory; and
Mr.. BIothier made good and Instruc-
tive extempore remarks. The dec
lamations led by little Lulu Van Os-
dale were well received, while all
were good and well spoken; we think
Lizzie Hutchinson's delivery merits
especial mention, being in her own
bright, natural way, 50 free from af-
lection. The singing was apprOpri-
ate and excellent, though the instru-
mental accompaniment with which
we were favored last year was mis-
sing. At the presidents suggestion
thanks were returned to the speakers
and all who had kindly assisted in
the entertainment Everything passed

BACHELORS
BY MOLLER RE1rER.


Bachelors infest all of Gods foot
stool. They are also to be found in
Oklahoma. Shakespeare says, "Some
men are born great, some achieve
greatness, others have greatness
thrust upon them. Old Shake VIII
pardon US if we initiate him far
enough to say, committing the first
class some achieve bachelorhood,
others have bache,orhood thrust upon
them. It is Of those who ''achieve''
the proud o. distinction of bachelor
hood that we would write. The sure
enough, all wool and a yard wide
bachelor lives alone generally, though
there are sometimes two of him. He
lives in a suite Of one room, as, by
accommodating all of the dirt in one
place, it VIII make a greater display.
His family consists of a dog, seven
cats, three pigs and some chickens:
and all eat at the same table. He
thinks this kind of family is good
enough, and about his social level.
They can ''clean up" the scraps for
him. The cats can skim the milk,
the canine can wash his dishes, the
pigs can dig his potatoes and, as
there are no milliners' or merchants
bills to pay, he does not feel the need
of wife and children
The bachelor (by achievement is a
charader. He speaks of his neigh
boris wife as ''WiIson's woman" His
father is 'the old man." his mother is
imam" and his sisters are the
''gyurls." He wears his hair cut low
in the neck, and never shaves but
twice year. He supports his over
alls by one home made suspender,
which is buttOned on by a stick or a
nail; his shoes are turned over at the
heels and one leg of his overaIIs is
rolled up while the other is frayed
out at the bottom, giving him a wild
west appearance which is very strik-
ing. He is a great politician. He is
anti-womans' rights from the word
go; he is anti prohibition all the way
through, from his untrimmed toe
nails to the top of the longest hair
which stands erect on his head '1ike
the quilts upon the back of the fret
full porcupine," and when it comes to
voting taxes he is out in full force to
oppose anything that involves the
spending of money. Says he: Let
them as has younguns eddicate 'em
the old man laid eout his money fer
my eddication, other fathers can dc
the same" And so he goes on. He
thinks school teachers do not work
and ought not to be paid. And on all
questions he is still in the dark ages
and will not advance.

Sure to Win.

The gentleman is sure to win, in this
life Of ours. If you speak the right
word at the right time; if you are
careful to leave people with a good
impression; if you do not trespass
upon the rights of others; if you al
ways think of others as well as your
self; if you do not put yourself IN
duly forward; if you do not forget
the cOurtesies which belong to your
position, you are quite sure to accom-
plush much in life, which others with
equal abilities fail to do. This is
where the race is not to the swift, nor
the battle to the strong. It Is where
you make people feel that you are IN
selfish, honorable, truthful and sin
cere. This is what society is looking
for in men, and it is astonishing how
much men are able to win of self
respect and success and usefulness
who possess these qualities of good
breeding.

which the children were burning, Mr..

At this time of the year, with a crop
half made, the loss is a serious one.

this will be done. Mr.. Ross also lost

The Corruption of the Colorado
Legislature.
From the Denver Press.
The Denver Republican is still
roasting the unblushing boodlers of
the recent legislature. The ''furni-
ture' bill amounted to S2O,4785O, at
tremendous prices; but where is the
furniture now? Last Sundays
Republican contained an officially
certified copy of the stationery" bill
amounting to s19.88a45. Robbery
seems to be too mild a term to apply
to the astounding steals Of the 18th
General Assembly. But the expose
is not yet completed. The printing
Job reaches the enormous sum of
100000! There were a few honest
men in the legislature; but the tax
payers Of the state ought to demand
that the thieves be indicted, convict
ed and sent to the penitentiary. The
matter should not be permitted to
drop with a newspaper exposure The
bOOdlers furnish the biggest Job ever
tackled by a grand jury IN Colorado.

Rev. Bernard Kelley for Pension
Agent.

President Harrison has done an ex-
cellent thing in the appointment of
Rev. Bernard Kelley, D. D.. of En-
poria as pension agent for the district
now under the direction of ex-Gov-
ernor Click.
Mr.. Kelley has been so long identi
fed with Kansas that he needs no ex-
tended biography at this time. He
served faithfully and bravely through
the war and came to Winfield, Cow
ley county. For nearly a generation
he has been a staunch Kansas repub-
Iican and presiding elder IN the NJ
E. church for several districts, being
located at Winfield, Wichita, Fort
Scott, and last of all at Emporia, his
present home. MIR. Kelley has also
been chaplain of the g. A. R. depart
ment of Kansas, and in all these diff
ferent relation was honored, admired
and cordially liked by those who knew
him. Until the present appointment
he has he'd no political Office but was
last summer a prominent candidate
for the republican nomination for
governor.
Mr.. Kelley has the qualities re-
quired of first class official. His
character is fortified with the best
traits; honest and honorable with all
men; positive and outspoken in what
he believes to be right; a man of alb
solute integrity, as unassailable as
Gibraltar. The appointment is alto
gether fitting.-Topeka Capital

A discussion, or perhaps it would
be better to say a general expression
of views, during a recent secret ses-
sion of the senate, as to why the sal
aries Of congressman should not be
doubled, has caused a good deal of
discussion. The senste is in favor of
it by large majority, but whether a
majority would vote for a bill enact
ing such a law is somewhat doubtful.
Public sentiment in Washington IN
doubtedly favors such a change; it is
argued that no representative or sen
ator can keep house in tthis city for
less than $4,000 a year, and keep up
the style and appearance that is ex-
pected of him. It is further argued
that the cost of living in Washington
is now much greater then it was when
the present salaries were fixed But
there is another side to the question,
and although its upholders are in the
minority they have undoubtedly a
large majority of the voters of the
country with them. They argue that
the present salary, $4,000 a year, is
enough, and that the people do not
send their representatives and sena-
tors to Washington to ape the man
ners of the European nobility, nor to
try to Guido the coterio of millionaire
who have of late years set the pace
for Washington society, but to work.
If any of them find $4,000 year in
sufficient to live on, let him resign
the place to a more economical man.
This is certainly the correct idea, and
the increase of salary to $40, 600 would
have a tendency to make politics more
corrupt, in addition to the aping of
European manners.-O berJjn Opin-
ion.
