MUToHLER FOR SPEAKER.
A PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRAT WHO II
VERY FAvoRABLY MENTIONED.


WASHINGTON Nov. 27-The latest
name mentioned in connection with
the Speakership is that of William
Mutchler of Easton, Pa. Every Sec
tion Of the country has its candidate
except the East. There are Mills,
McMillin, Crisp aud Blount from the
South; Hatch, Springer, Byuum,
Cultivate aud Wilson from the North
and West, but none except Mutchler
from the great Atlantic States. 1t is
true that Lockwood of New York has
announced his candidacy, but every
one treats it as joke and not to be
seriously considered. He is not a
member of the present Congress aud
| therefore there is no one who takes his
candidacy in earnest.
The East, with its great financial in
terests, should be entitled to the Office,
as the West now has the Presidency
and the "Bloody Shirt is still being
waved too much for the South to gel
the lonor without cost to the Demo
cratic party. Should the East combine
on Mutchler, as now seems probable
he would be formidable candidate a,
he would have fifty-six votes to start
With.
Aside from this, Mr.. Mutchler haf
many friends among all the old mem
bers, as he is very popular with them
In every way he is adapted to the po
sition. He is good parliamentarian
level-headed and with perfect oontro
of his temper. His position on th'
tariff is that of his party, and his selec
ton would give the business world ,
guarantee that no rash measures woul'
become laws Although Mr.. Mutchle
has not announced his candidacy, hi
friends have taken the matter in hant
and are determined to secure his cleo
tion.

The present indications are that the

The large number OF eligible csndi-

highly complimentary to the democra'

of the voters in having nominated and

THE BLOW BEHIND THE EAR.

1t Decent require Hercules TO deliver il,
either, SO long as it fetches up in the right
spot Neither are bare knuckles nor skin
gloves essential. On the contrary, the man
wearing boxing gloves can do the act more sue
cessfully, for the reason that when he lands he
can cover greater surface OF vulnerable space
with the comparatively broad eXpanse that tho
mItten presents than with the natural uncov-
cred hand. This is easily shown by the record
of John l.. Sullivan, who went about the coua-
try knocking people out in three or four rounds,
several week. in public exhibitions, where
only the ''pilows' or four-ounce gloves were
permitted by the authorities TO be used.
Before Sullivan opened up his knocking-out
career it was seldom that the putting of a man
to sleep was heard of. This is doubtless due to
the fact that in former wears London prize
ring rules governed most battles. In these
wrestling is permitted. and rounds are often
quickly ended by throw of one of the con-
testants 70 the ground, before there is much
opportunity for stGnd-off square hitting, as
there is under Queensberry rules, under which

play with little girl, who was lonesome, with

A Bows Essay ON Girls.

From the Metropolitan Magazine.
Girls is great on making bleeve. She will
make bleeve dol is live baby. She will
make bleeve she is orfull sweet on another girl
or Teller, if they como to see her. and when
they are gone she will say: ''HorrId old thing. +"
Girls is olways fooling Teller. She can't lick
yer so she gets the best of yer that way. If yer
don't do what girl tells yer, she says yer hor-
rid drather be horrid than DO soft. II you
do what girl tells you, you will dc all sorts of
foolish things. Girls can be good in school
every day if they feel like it. L shuld think
they would git tired and have to do sum thing
wonse in while; know Teller does. Girls
say fellers acts orfull, but when girl gifts q
going it she acts orfier than any Teller
burst They don't care for nothing.
II girl wants Teller to carry her books
home. she amt satisfied unless she gifts the
same Teller the other girls want, whether she
likes him or not. Girls is CRATE on having Sc
crets. mean telling secrets. They
make o secret out Of nothing at all and
then tell it round to oil the other girls,
orful quiet just as II it was sumthing dredful.
Girls olways git their goggerfry lessons better
than a Teller, but if they are going anywhere
they are sure to git lost If two fellers has q
fife the girls all go for the Teller that hcks no
matter whether he is good for anything else or
not II girl don't feel like doing thing you
can't make her, no matter whether she had
orter or not. II she won't she won't and she
will git out OF it somehow. That is all know
about girls this time.

There is also the blow on the neck or jugulaf
vein that will bring about coma. This blow is
delivered on the arteries of the neck and drives
the blood mp into the brain in such a way as to
create havoc equal to the effect OF the COM

more or less of a case of swamp. in which the
brain is overpowered by the food and jar and

The sofa she.

With cheerful glow:
The lover was not one who turned
The lamp down low.
He sat and unused; with furtive glance
The maiden eyed

And softly sighed.
At length she spoke, while to her brow
The color flew:
"ld feel relieved if | were now

"fou would not look so sweet" said he;
but tell me why

DOES PROHIBITION PROHIBIT
North Dakota's Supreme COure
Asked to Decide.
Special IN the G1oha

NOrtn DakOta supreme COuce
Asked to Decide.
Special to the Globe
FARGO, N. D.. Jan. 3O.-The Grand
Forks habeaS corpus case took up the
entire time of the supreme court today.
1t is test case from that county, and
will decide the constitutionality of
prohibition as regards immediate en-
forcement under penalties in the Terri.
ritorial Statutes. The prohibltory amend.
ment was adopted at the last election,
but no penalties were provided. The
appellant in this case admits having
sold liquor, but questions the right Of
the authorities to enforce fine or i'm.
prisonment therefor. The arguments
to-day were exhaustive and highly in.
teresting, the court room being crowded
to its utmost capacity. The decision
will probably not be given before Sat.
urday. The appellants counsel con.
tended that even if the charges set
forth in the complaint be true,
his client Is not punishable under any
law in force in North Dakota That
the proliibitory article in the cOnstitu.
ton annulled all territorial laws and
parts of laws relating to the granting of
licenses, and as that article is not self
executing no penalty can be inflicted
for its violation until statute providing
a penaltp goes into effect. Counsel for
the respondent argued that the
prohibitory article in the constitution
annulled only those sections of terri.
torial law which authorize the grating
of licenses. That other parts of the law,
including the penalty clauses, are not
repugnant to the constitution, and are
therefore still in force. That the pro-
hibitory article is self executing so far
as it relates to the right of county COM
missiOners to grant licenses. but not as
relates to penalties for violating the
law,
