WASHINGTON, May PA prominent

town this week, says that ex-Speaker
Carlisle is going to have a struggle to get
the nomination again in his district, For
the past year or two there has been
growing in this district feeling adverse
to the ex-speaker. While Carlisle has
been making friends over the country he
seems to have neglected his constituency.
and accepted his position as matter of
course. Kentuckians are about ready to
resent this treatment, and talk against
Mr.. Carlisle is said to be quite bitter.
There is young lawyer living In Coving-
ton who is considered remarkably bright
and he has an immense number of
friends. He Is ready speaker and an
able debater and his friends say should
he come to congress the district will not
lose by the loss of Carlisle.
The Covington man, talking about
Mr.. Carlisle g relations at home, saws
that he has of late been on
''high horss.i' In other words he
has snubbed a number of leaders at
home, and when asked to do q favor has
remarked that he had either no time or
no inclination to accomplish t.. Re-

to address a couple of Democratic mass

IheEe, some distance out over the stream,
away at his old hunting shirt. Fancy the con-
trast, boys; but thatwas the simple, unpreten-
tious way in which Crook lived on the frontier.
He never had any more baggage than 3 private
trooper. he could ride as hard and fast and
lar as the best Of US. He never seemed weary
with work, though often worn with anxiety for
his men. He had to exact many hardships Of
his officers and soldiers, but never one that
he did not undergo himself. He was so abste-
mlous that our solace of coffee or tobacco was
unknown to him. He would touch nothing that
would impair the nerves. He rode great big
mule in Arizona because the creature could OUT
travel any horse in the department.; and he
would sometimes make his seventy miles day
and leave his escort hopelessly behind He was
absolutely untirlnR on the trail or on the chase;
but gentleness itself TO those around him He
despised shirk, and, as such a char
acter was something he could not
understand at all, he sometimes failed
to handle the case as it deserved. he
was just, generous, even magnaninous to men
who wronged him, as many men did; but l
never knew nature or man whom the boys of
America could better afford TO pattern after
than this. He was pure 4 patriot as un-
selfish being, as faithful soldier, as dutiful
an oticer, as simple and direct in everything
he thought and said as IN the habits of his
daily life; and boys, he was the soul of truth
and honor. George Crook never knew what it
was to mislead or deeeSSe man, woman or
child. 49, CaARLEs KING

The face of this watch is precisely the same as
that of the gold watch and the movement is pre-
cisely the same. The difference between the
two watches is only in the case. The latter is
OF oxidized silver, acid eaten, very neat and
quaint.
The movement ST these watches is identical, it
is the quick train, with straight line lever es-
cspemenl, with a direct acting hand set that
permits accurate setting, and will not allow the
hands to move out of position while setting. In
the sweep second movement the
the second hand is run direct from the move
ment train, insuring perfect motion, while the
dial train and hands are run by friction pinion
from side center. This gives all the advant-
ages in time keeping qualities of the most deli
cately adjusted and expensive movement
Each watch is put up in neat box padded to
carry it safely through the mails. In the box
are directions for setting the hands and regu-
lating the watch, with the name OF the person
at the factory who tested and packed it.
Orders must give the name, postoffice, county
and state.
