Attention, Democrats! !

Next Monday will be a very I'M.
portant day memorable day-in
the history of our county, in the
history of some of our lives.
We are to 60 to the polls and cast
our ballots for county, judicial and
state officers. The party i'll its wis
dom has chosen our candidates. We,
as individual voters have gone into
the primaries and assisted in making
these tickets; and by that action we
have directly signifed our willing
ness to abide by the action of the
conventions ratifying the choices
made at the polls.
Many of us, of course, lost our
lavorites. Where there were so
many aspirants, and all having an
enthusiastic and jealous list of sup-
porters and friends, twas expected
that the disappointed would be nus
merous and would feel sore for many
days.
But now the crisis draws nigh.
Shall we scatter our forces as NAL.
contents, throw aside our organiza''
ton and let our opponents gloat over
our selfshness and indiscretion and
capture two or three fat offices I?
1t is now too late to listen at
campaign yarns.
The characters of candidates
should have been aired before the
primaries.
Our opponents are sanguine of
defeat. Don't let them be dlsap,
pointed.
Let us show tho opposition to
democracy in Sharp county, and to
the world at large that our organlza.
tion meant something and will do
something at the polls.
Don't let the personal grievance
of friend cause you to "sour" on
any part of tho county ticket, Let
him nurse bis own wrath and vote as
he chooses,
But you walk up with broad,
gauge democratic air, a full.aedged
democratic ticket, from Eagle to
constable, and vote it straight
BE certain your ticket contains
no names but the regular democratic
nominees. There will be bogus
tickets at every precinct
Don't let strikers decoy you of or
swap you ont OF vote,
Profit by this advice If it is good;
if you cannot take 1t, come in and
let us announce yoa for tho proSi>
dency IN '02,

The African Fever.

Once or twice we heard the snorts of
hippopotami around our boat when we
moored for the night. As we slept,
each wrapped in his blanket, lying
athwartship on bales and boxes, it was
not pleasant to be walked near midnight
by these unaccustomed sounds. and to
hear the wash of the water along the
gunwale. caused by these monsters.
We were not little thankful that
they confined themselves to grunts of
defiance and forbore any actual attack,
for by this time we were all suffering
from African fever, and a good nights
sleep was very precious to us. Our
boat was small and overcrowded, and
we were all good-sized fellows on
board; so, when the fever was on us, it
required considerable ingenuity and
much crossing and recrossing of legs
before spaces could be found in which
to lie down at all, in the sternsheet of
our craft.
Poor Milne, a strong stout-built man,
who had served twenty-one years in the
British navy, suffered more than any of
us; and by the time we reached Man
yanga the fever had taken so strong
hold of him that his case became hope
less. We did all we could for him. but
our small knowledge was of little avail.
We hoped that he would rally when we
got ashore again, but five days after we
had landed he succumbed after a few
hours of delirium. This was indeed a
great blow to me- for although there
was a great difference in our ages.
Milne and | had been fast friends on
hn 10 bad
good to me in MANY WAYS, instead of
ridiculing my inexperience, and on
several occasions had helped ME out of
difficulties into which | had been led
through ignorance. He never lost an
opportunity of giving me such infor-
nation as he thought would be of use
to me when should be away in the in
terror and alone. 1t was Milne who
first showed me how to handle rifle,
how to use Il sail-needle, and, even
more important, how to cook the few
dishes that have for years figured with
such monotonous repetition in my SIM
pie bills of fare.
In return, / would amuse him and
the others on the way by drawing
rough portraits which they sent home
to their friends; or, at night. would
sing few comic songs to the accom-
paniment of my banjo. And here, at
the commencement of our new career.
the man who to all appearance was the
strongest of our party was snatched
away by death. while |. not particu-
larly robust lad, was left to wonder who
would be the next victim to the dread
full fever that was burning in every vein
and racking every bone.
l felt then that it was necessary for
me to brace up" keep a stiff upper
lip, and fight every advance of the
enemy. To my surprise | found my
self day by day growing stronger.
while my companions weakened and
failed; at last. one day / was able to
announce myself us prepared to con-

TO THE CLOUDS BY RAIL.
The Pixies Peak Cog Road Now Nearing
Completion.

The Pixies Peak Cog Railway, one Of
the most marvellous engineering feats
of the world. is almost completed.
About two years ago the first real eff
fort was made to supplant the burro
train and drive the iron horse to the
summit of the grim Sentinel of the
Rockies" A company of local capital
lists was organized and the work of
grading commenced. Unfortunately.
capital was lacking. and after grading
several miles around mountain peaks
and over mighty chasms the company
failed, and the work came to stop.
But this failure of local enterprise
only stimulated and called out the true
Western vim and energy. The burro
train was too slow for this fast-going
age. and the people were determined
that the smoke of the locomotive should
yet be seen from the terminus of the
highest railway in the world. The re-
suit was that last summer witnessed
the organization of company of cap
italists with almost unlimited means.
A charter was obtained and corps of
engineers set at work to locate the line.
The contract was let to Messrs. kantry
& Sons and the work of grading COM
menced.
From that time to date of writing, all
day long and of moonlight nights. it
has been one continuous boom. boom
and roar, resembling a battery of heavy
artillery distinctly twenty miles away,
Giant powder and dynamite have done
their work, and mountains rock have
been hurled from where they had rested
since placed there by the Architect OF
the Universe.
Instead of following the old survey
and protiting by the work already
done, the new road starts from the Ute
Iron Springs. short distance west of
the principal avenue in the famous
pleasure resort of Manitou Springs.
Thence it takes its course up RuXton
Greek, closely following the old burro
TRAIL past the Minnehaha Falls, through
scenery which would require an in
spired pen to faithfully portray. Four
miles west of Manitou is the Half
way-House," where station will be
located. Leaving the Halfway House
the road winds through the canons,
through a magnificent park of pine
and hemlock, climbing up, always up,
skirting the eastern base of the noun
tain, bearing southwesterly, around
Windy Point" on the south, making
its final rise and reaching the summit
of Pixies Peak from the west.
Here, up amid the eternal SHOWS, a
station house and hotel will be built
II, $50 feet above the sea level. From
the eastern terminus at Manitou to the
western terminus on the summit, a
distance of nine miles, the difference in
altitude is about 8, 336 feet, or an aver
age of 926 feet per mile in the grade of
the road. The engine and cars are
now being built expressly for this road
the engine being so constructed as to
run over line of cogs in the centre of
the track, the engine preceding the ears
going up aud following them coming
down. A company has already been
organized to build an elevated rail-
way through Manitou, to connect the
Denver and Rio Grande and the Pike 5
Peak Railway depots, and this line will
be ready for business by the time the
cog railway is completed.-St. Louis

PARISiAN SIRENS.
Women Who Bet on Races and Inveigle
Men Into Gaming.

Women play an important part in
Paris gambling, especially in the rae
ing portion of it, says the London Sat
urday Reriesc. This. however, applies
chiefly to the lower classes. About
one-third of the crowd on the suburban
race-course is composed of the fair sex.
And what women they are, culled from
all the bas fondS of the pleasure-loving
city, the sort of women who could lead
a revolution, defend barricade, and
with cheerful Observation-Disclosures set fire
to street of houses. They all bet,
and when they lose of course it is the
fault of the jockey. or of the trainer,
or of the owner, who gave instructions
to have his horse pulled" Truth to
tell, French gamblers are very bad
losers. and the scenes that occur when
a favorite is beaten are not of an edify-
ing nature. Men and women join in
bowling and shrieking ut the jockey
rs he passes by to weigh in; and, in
deed, ii is not unusual for sticks and
umbrellas to take an active part N the
fray.
The better class of women do not
gamble much in Paris. There are GER
taiuly innumerable clandestine rou-
lettes kept by demi-mondaines who
have passed into retirement and who
Squander their lives earnings on the
green cloth; but the police are very
severe on these establishments and
they are quickly scented out and sup
pressed. The eN-sirens who preside
over these gambling resorts are a
great pest and carry on their nefariouS
trade in much the same way as do the
lower classes of money-lenders in Lon
don. They find out the addresses OF
people whom they see at the races
people whom they suspect to be fond
of clutter then an invitation

course, very often the invitation is
thrown i'll the fire. but sometimes it is
accepted, and it is needless to add that
the victim next day bitterly regrets his
visit. These roulettes are never held
twice in the same apartment. The old
ladies are very wary. and they change
their venue with every fresh race meet

Bismarck's Youngest Son.

"Billy" Bismarck, as he is known to
his family and friends, is one of the
most popular society men in Berlin, a
member of many clubs, bit of bon
vivant and the very image, the older
folks declare, of Graf Won Bismarck at
his age. Count Billy, who is about
thirty-eight, excessively bald and with
a quick. keen face and an eve that
scarcely hides the merry twinkle that
betrays his innate love of humor, is
Governor of the Province of Hanover.
He is a man of rare mental gifts and
with a wonderful faculty of repartee.
After leaving college. where he studied
law and passed the examination credit
ably, he went into the service of the
Government, where his ability, toeeth-
er with the influence of the paterual
name. has pushed him forward to a
point that is usually reached only after
about thirty years of civil service.
Still. his administration in Hanover has
given satisfaction. where his energy and
unfailing fund OF amiability make him
very popular. Cor Raiiadetphia Times.
