WANT TO MAKE WHISKY FOR Us.

A special despatch to the New York Herald
from Chicago states: "What the English
capitalists who are formed into syndicates
now want is chance at the distilleries Of tho
United States They think there is moro
money in whisky now than in anything else
with the exception of beer. They have OBJ
tanned possession of most of the big breweried
of the country, and their representatives
are now looking into the condition OF ting
distilleries and will make some purchasesI
soon.
st is true, as reported in the dispatches
said Levy Mayer, attorney for the syndicate,
after somo distilleries Options have been
secured and the business is being examined
into very carefully. If this class ofproperty
is finally taken, large amount of money Wllt
be put into them and large number will PEI
secured.
''There is no certainty, however, that the
distilleries will be taken. The internal re-
venue laws Of this country are an uncertain
quantity. They may be changed at any time
"Another fact that has been taken into
consideration is the agitation by the Prohl-
bitionists. This has kept the English invest
ors from purchasing many breTeries and dls7
tilleries, notably the breweries in Omaha 0n
the establishments there options had already
been secured. In probing thoroughly into the
matter we found that three of the States par
TALLY surrounding Nebraska had already
voted in favor of prohibitory amendment
to their constitutions. This would doubtless
have considerable influence on the people OF
Nebraska, we reasoned, and such was found
to be the case. for the proposition for pro-
hibitory amendment will be submitted to the
people of Nebraska in less than year. The
options on the Omaha breweries were there

we crcpt up and killed one and wounded
two, and consequently raised the siege.
We could have gone away now had we
had any place to SO to, but we had de-
cided to remain.
On the fifth day, about 9 o'clock il
the morning, rabble of about 600 ma
tives, most of them soldiers, who were
on their way to Cawnpoor, were turned
aside to attack us. Each one had gun
and plenty of ammunition, and for three
hours they kept up creditable fire.
They could see nothing to shoot at, but
fred into the thickct, and at least five
hundred bullets hit the walls of our
fortress. We did not fire il reply, as it
would only have betrayed our position.
At noon, when their fire began to
slackcn, we made ready for a charge.
There were two spare gins, and all
we'll loaded. Then, while waiting,
Wilds piled up Il couple Of hundred
stones about the size of his fist from
the plentiful supply once used in the
rubble work of the buildings. The
thicket was surrounded two lines deep,
and at signal a general advance was
made. Had we been without cover we
should have tcen killed or captured.

A Simple, Silly Lie.

As sample par excellence Of Dem.

be that the report is being circulated

we commend the yarn that DR.. fowler

the removal of the county seat from
Tionesta TO Marienville. AS matter
of fact, if the combined power of both
branches of the legislature, and the
Governor, too, were vested in a Rep.

change the county seat, as the new
Constitution distinctly and emphatically
prohibits any Interference with the re.

by it we make this mention. When

How They Keep Warm in Montreal.

Iiulhn ma pu III uhf l'I . hoshAiAN+i
In Montreal one may buy clothing not
TO be had in the United States-woollens
thick as boards, hosiery that wards oil
the cold as armor resists missiles, gloves
as heavy as shoes yet soft as kid, fur
caps and coats at prices and in variety
that interest poor and rich alike, blan-
ket-suits that are more picturesque than
anv other masculine garment worn north
of the City of Mexico, tuques, and moe
casins, and, indeed. indeed, 30 many
sorts Of clothing we Yankees know very
little Of Though many OF us need them)
that at a glance we say the Montrealers
are foreigners. Montreal is the gayest
city on this continent, and have often
thought that the clothing there Is large
ly responsible for that condition.
A New Yorker disembarking in Mon
treal in midwinter finds the place in
HOSPITALITY cold and wonders how, as
well as why, any one lives there. L well
remember standing years ago beside
toboggan slide with my teeth chattering
and my very marrow slowl y congealing.
when nv attention was called to the fact
that a dozen ruddy-cheeked, bright-eyed
laughing girls were grouped IN snow
that reached their knees. | asked a
Canadian lady how that could be posi-
BILE, and she answered with a list OF
the principal garments those girls were
wearing. They had two pairs Of stock.
ings under their shoes and pair OF
stockings over their shoes, with mecca
SINS over them. They had so many
woollen skirts that an American girl
would not believe me il | gave the num-
Der. They wore heavy dresses and buck
skin jackets and blanket suits over
all this. They had mittens over
their gloves and fur caps over
their knitted hoods. 1t no longer
seemed wonderful that they should not
heed the cold indeed. it occurred to
me that their bravery amid the terrors
of tobogganing was no bravery Mt all,
since a girl buried deep in the heart OF
such mass of woollens could scarcely
expect damage if she fell from a steeple.
When next l appeared out OF doors
was swathed in flannel. too, like jewel IN
a box OF plush, and from that time out
Montreal seemed what it really is, the
merriest OF American capitals.
