 Captain Frank Cunningham, of Richmond, Virginia, has taken a notion that he would like to sing at his own funeral. He has sung at 3S5 funerals during the last two years. He intends to sing certain songs into photograph and let the instrument oficiate at the ceremony preceding his burial. He has chosen "Home of the Soul" and "Good Night" as the songs to be delivered at that time.
 There are happy ice dealers in Maine, but there is at least one who is unhappy. Last summer he made contract to deliver 20,OOO tons of ice this spring and summer at from fifty to seventy-fve cents a ton. This pays him good profit, as profits ordinarily go, since the ice can be gathered and housed for fifteen or twenty cents ton. But other dealers in the State are now refusing as much as $4 ton.

A Boys Composition on Girls.

Exchange: Girls are the most unaccountable things in the world except women. Like the wicked fees, when you have them they ain't there. can cipher clean over to improper fractions, and the teacher says l do 1t first rate, but can't ci- pher out girl, proper or improper, and you cant either. The only rule in arithmetic that hits their case IS the double rule of two. They are as full of the old Nick as their skins can hold, and they'd die if they couldn't torment somebody. When they try to be mean they are as mean as pursely, though they ain't as mean
 as they let on to be, except some times, and then they are great deal meaner. The only way to get along with a girl when she comes with her
 nonsense IS to give her tit for tat, and that will ilummux her, when you get a girl fummuxed, she is as nice as new pie, A girl will SOW more wild oats in day than boy can in a year, but girls get their wild oats sowed after awhile, which boys nev- CT do, and then they settle down as calm and placid as mud puddle. But l like girls first rate, and guess all boys do. don't care how many tricks they play on me-and they don't care either. The hoitytoitiest
 girl in the world cant always boil

Al the head of Holy CroS

At the head of Holy Cross Creek near Leadville, Colo, and in the al-
 most inaccessible detiles of Mount Shasta, Cal, there are hundreds of square feet of ground continually covered with snow as red as blood. In the polar regions red and scarlet snow is familiar sight, but the two places named above are the only spots within the limits of the United States where it is known to exist,
 The phenomenon is due to the pres ence of minute animalcule in the snow. How the little midge ever got there is a question that has never been satisfactorily answered.

A large man, says an exchange, walked into one of the improyised polling booths in the vicinity of Mad ison avenue. New York, on the first day of registration. Four or five men sat around the tables copying lists and preparing their books. They paid no attention to the conner until he said, after waiting patiently for awhile
 ''I would like to register.
 Where do you live?" inquired one of the clerks rather gruilly. The rest looked at the would-be voter rather suspiciously.
 No. SIG Madison avenue" was the reply.
 Whats your name?"
 "Grover Cleveland.
 The man started as if he was shot. He was so excited that his book fell to the floor, while "de gang rose to their feet and awkwardly expressed their confusion by removing their hats. Meanwhile the ex- President of the United States registered like any other citizen and walked away very much amused,

A Smooth Shave.

Somebody in the St. Louis Globe Democrat tells of a new wrinkle in shaving. "A friend of mine," he says, "a few months ago told me how to shave easily and painlessly, and have never shaved in barber shop since. The plan Is to use oil or grease instead of soap to prepare the chin and soften the beard. Vase line is the most convenient and 1t should be rubbed Tn quite freely. Then, with keen razor, shaving can be done easily and without a suspicion of pain. At first it was hard for me to reconcile myself to doing without the orthodox lather, and used soap afser the vaseline had been applied. But soap is really un- necessary, and shaving with oil or yaseline is cleaner, as well as pleas anter, and there is not particle Of irritation to the skin.

Bringing Fathers Dinner.

It was in the Cincinnati. Hamilton X Dayton depot in Cincinnati one day, when one of the men employed to oil the cars as they came in, acci- dentally fell under the wheels of a moving coach and had his right leg and hip crushed in horrible man ner. He was picked up and laid on some coats spread on the platform, and doctor was soon on hand. He must have suffered intensely, but af- ter the doctor had examined him, he cooly asked:
 "Doctor, how bad is it?"
 "Very bad, indeed"
 "Will live?"
 Not more than ten minutes, you are bleeding to death,"
 What time is it. Jim ?" asked the man of fellow employe.
 Eleven iifty-fve," was the an swer.

 1 went to the door with others, and we were just in time to stop Il boy of $ and a girl of 6 from coming in. Each had hold of the handle of a basket containing fathers dinner, and they were smiling in anticipation of the greeting they would receive. We sent them away with false sto- ry about his having gone home, and the eyes of both were filled with tears of disappointment The echo of their, footsteps could still be heard on the pavement when the father breathed his last.

MOVE MBER.

The mellow year is hastng to its close, The little birds have almost sung their last, Their small notes twitter in the dreary blast That shrllpiped harbnger of early snowsl The patient beauty of the scentless rose, Oft with the morn's boar crystal quaintly glassed Hangs, pale mourner of the summer past, And makes little summer where 1t grows. In the chill sunbeam of the faint brief day The dusky waters shudder as they shine The russet leaves obstruct the struggling way Ofoozy brooks, which no deep banks define; And the gaunt woods, in ragged, scant array, Wrap their old limbs with sombre ivy twide.

THE TARIFF SITUATION.

1 Ahe hepuoicau press Ol tue west is generally willing enough now to admit that the Mckinley bill was a blnnder which, from their present standpoint, may seem worse than crime, but it is neither fair nor just 1 of them to make scape-goat of poor Mckinley on account of the stupidity of his consistency. He has done nothing of himself, except to assist in demonstrating that the Re- publican party cannot reduce the tar tiff or make any change in it other than an increase.
 This is a general truth, and no one who refuses to accept and compre- bend it in its workings can possibly understand American politics. It is as true historically as it is in existing fact The Republicans could not have reduced the tariff in this Con- gress without ceasing to exist as a party. They stand for the combn- ed manufacturering corporations which demanded an increase, and though the rank and file of the party opposed 1t, the leaders had no choice but to acce1e to it. Had they made general reduction instead of gen. eral increase, they would have sur rendered their party position and ac- l cepted that of the Democrats. In their efforts at reform the Democrats have adopted every possible plan of reduction and the Republicans could not have pitched on any that would not have been generally identical with what the Democrats had done before them. The first Morrison 1 bill was a measure of general and careful reform and reduction. The Plutocracy beat it. The Republicans then "adjusted the inequalities" by the act of 1883, making distinct advance in rates as matter of course. The Democrats, accepting their theory that their inequalities were adjusted or properly distribu- ted, proposed in the second Morri- son bill a clean cut all alone the line. | The Plutocracy beat it again. Then in the Mills bill the Democrats pro- posed reduction of only five per cent, giving relief on leading arti- cles of consumption where the high taxes were most oppressive. Again the Plutocracy beat it and threw the whole question of "adjusting the tariff" into the hands of it's friends. The result-the only possible result was the general advance of the Mckinley bill. The Plutocratic al- lance would have accepted nothing less. The Republican leaders could have rendered nothing less.
 Before the Republican party could make a reduction of the tariff on manufactured goods it would have to be completely disrupted and reor- ganized There are Republicans enough who will vote and work in | the short session of the Reed Con- gress who fully understand what has happened to the party; who would be glad to repeal the Mckinley bill and lower taxes if they could but they know they cannot and will not try. They will keep their Plutocrat- ic alliance and wait in the hope that the Democrats will blunder them back into position to make fur ther increase as soon as the Plutoc- racy demands it, Republic.

nau no rest. l cOulu see that SIe- ven was restless, and not for a mo- ment did l lose track of him. To ward evening l saw him go into the haymow, and 1 followed. I stood on the ladder, and, looking above the hay, 1 saw him put something under the caves. 1 descended, and after he had gone to the house I re- traced my steps and went to the caves, where 1 had seen him. There was tin can. l expected to find the lost evidence in it; but instead of containing the handkerchief and pieces of paper. it was full of paper money. The stolen money.
 Thought of what Mir Ross had said about another witness, and, return ing the can to it's place, I descended the ladder. Kitty was on the lower floor hunting for eggs, and apparent ly didn't see me.
 As 1 went out of the door l saw the doctor just leaving the house and ran after him.
 "Uncle Silas will die," he said. I made no answer to that, but took him into my confidence, and explain ed the entire case to him, and told what l wanted of him. He went with me to the haymow, and the can of money was not there.
 "A strange mistake for sane man." said the doctor, as he left me l was sorely puzzled.
 AS 1 left the barn 1 met Steven. and gave him look that made him turn pale. Where did you put the money?' 1 asked.
 He didn't answer, but rushed to the barn and up the ladder. Soon he returned, all of tremble. and said; "Iou have my money"
 You lie!" l answered. 1t is Mir. Ross money"
 He broke completely down and confessed that he had gone to MT. Ross barn, and seeing his overcoat with the pocket pinned, had taken the money, and but the paper in its place. He didn't then know where the money was. l believed him.
 But where was it!
 Uncle Silas did die that very day. He had left a will that gave all of his estate to Kitty.
 "A will but no money,' sail Mr Fisher. "Poor brother drink did it."
 Then the secret of Uncle Sllas money was mine. He had never been a drunkard, but had al- ways been miser.
 After the funeral Kitty came to me with package in her hand, and said: "Mr. Watson, or whatever your name is, do you think that l am blind? Do you suppose that l think you are farm laborer? Don't you think that knew what the matching of the paper on the bench meantt l feared that my father might have been tempted, for he had to borrow a large sum of money at the time MT. Ross was robbed. ] wanted to shield him and l watched you. l saw you watching uncle in the cellar, and l took those things from your pockets. l saw you in the haymow and l took the can of money. Now that know Steven, who has run away, is the thief, here IS WHat tOoh.
 She handed the things to me.
 never was so abashed in my life. l stood silent before the girl who had read me from the beginning. l admired her more than ever. was glad that she got uncle Silas' S4 ,000 that we found in the cellar. told Kitty that 1 was glad she had the money and told her much more. The truth is that didn't only find MT. Ross money for him, but l found a wife for myself, and l have always been glad of the termination of my first case.

The Girl Who Knows EVERYTHING.

Naturally it isn't you or your friend, but
you certainly know her, and just as GER
tainly you dislike her. When you dislike
people there is one thing you should always
do, and that is, look well at their faults
and make up your mind that you are not
going to fall into them. This girl, who is
quite too general to be pleasant, is the girl
who, having learned something yesterday,
knows everything. She makes herself OBJ
noxious by Haunting recently acquired
knowledge, concluding always that the
people who are quiet are ignorant; she has
no hesitancy in contradicting nybody; she
makes an entire luncheon disagreeable by
giving her opinion on the last pronuncia-
tions, forgetting that custom makes many
things correct, of which the dictionary has
no mcntion.-Ladies' Home Journal
