An Alliance Bank Scheme.

The Farmers Alliance, says a St.
Joseph dispatch, has undertaken a gil
| gan.ic scheme to advance the price OF
wheat. 4 large elevator is to be built
for the farmers who are members OF the
| Alliance, and the wheat is to remain
stored until it can be sold for one dollar
bushel. In order to tide over the
farmers who have their wheat thus
stored, a new bank is to be established
a st. Joseph. with a capital of $50, 600,
and the money VIII be loaned to mem
bers at very low rate of interest.
The Burro in Forest Park.
Louis Knorr, a wide-awake citizen OF
St. Louis, has obtained permission to
keep burros at Forest Park, st. Louis
| largest pleasure resort, for the purpose
of hire. He believes that they can be
used to amuse the thousands of chill
dren that visit the park. The burro,
you know, is a small jacllass used in
Mexico and New Mexico. He can live
on cactus leaves and sand, and can be as
gentle as lamb and as ugly as the no
tOriouS wild man from Barnco.

RODE ABRoNCHo.
And She Rode II Like a Man

A charming and piquant littleactress of
the Metropolis" company yesterday af-
ternoon took buggy ride with another
lady of the company. They drove to-
ward the Missions, and a little way out
met cowboy on a broncho. Our little
heroine, although fine horsewoman, had
never rode broncho and her desire to do
so was at once put in the form of a re-
quest. The cowboy dismounted, assisted
the lady to his horse, apologlzing profuse-
ly for the saddle not being lady's.
and at the invitation of her friend
he took the vacant seat in
the buggy and the three then went mer-
rily along for while. Our tomboy soon
got tired of the uncomfortable mans sad
die, which she rode sidewise, and changed
to the regular man fashion of riding, ere
ating quite sensation with road parties
they happened to meet. After a mile of
this sport she gave up her beast to its
owner and again took to the buggy, thor
oughly satisfied with her Texas broncho
experience.

THE TIME OF THE TOWN.
How and Where Obtained, On the
Accuracy OF Watches,

Accuracy OF Watches.
1t will be remembered that several
| years ago there was a change made in
| the time of the town. At that time we
| had what was known as railroad time
and city time, the city time being "a min
uteS slower than rail road times The
sensible idea of having one time instead
of the two was carried out, and the city
time was discharged for that of the rail-
roads. The new time which has been in
vogue the past few years, and which
saves much of the annoyanceS caused by
the keeping of the two times, is known as
the Goth meridian time, being dispatched
here hourly from ST. Louis which is Sit
mated about 90 degrees westof Greenwich,
England. "You See," says jess NJ. Bell,
the jeweler by whose large self winding
clock most of the watches and house
clocks of the city are set" when the bell
in the Western Uuion clock strikes, i'm
mediately look at the old clock to see
how they agree. If there is a slight diff
ference | Immediately regulate the same.
The great difference noticeable in that
clock. is never greater than a few Sec
.ondS."
How about the Western Union clocks,
are they not very accurate?"
mo, not very. Sometimes they run be-
hind for few minutes to one minute. but
they are set by electricity at the end of
every hour, which makes them accurate If
their time is taken just as they strike.
o yes, for all practical purposes they are
accurate enough, but for matchmaker
who has to set the watches for railroad
men and give a certificate that they do
not vary more than certain number of
seconds In a certain time. they would be
absolutely unavailable. Take the large
clocks out on the streets. They are too
uncertain for any one who wished to be
precise, to go by. They are subjected too
much to the weather. The heat or the
cold expands and contracts their vital
parts. Then take their heavy hands.
when the minute hand has left MI and is
passing III, while when il goes uphill
after leaving vi and passing IX, it is al
ways slow"
''1suppose that you find it considerable
trouble to serve as the city time keeper,
giving everybody the exact time and set
ting numerous watches?"
10 glance upa our clock and tell the
party the correct time would be scarcely
no trouble at all, but to have the chimes
of the telephone bell continually buzzlng
in our ear like rhapsody of thirsty mos
quito, is decided bother"
About how many times day do you
answer the phone for the purpose of tell
ing people the timer
~, have not the least Idea, but you
can depend upon it, the telephone compa-
ny will have to renew its bells in short
time, if the racket keeps up in the past as
it has in the future. Talking about city
time keeper, think it would be very
good idea, provided that competent man
were to be employed. The city could get
its time hourly by telegraph and by some
general signal give the people of the city |
the benefit of that time. However, this |
change would be of benefit, only in case
a competent man, one in whom the jew
elerS could place the utmost confidence, |
were to be placed in charge of the Office"
