generally asking from 10 to 15c advance, owing
to the sharp rise in Wheat, which is active and
excited in all the leading markets. Corn and Oats
are higher. Pork and Lard dull and easy with
Sugar steady and unchanged. Oranges about zoe
higher and scarce. New Potatoes firm; receipts

Judge J. G. Wear is banker

now very bland and smiling to

ling to do almost anything they

willingness to 60 to the Demo.
cratic convention at St. Jaseph,
and make himself conspicuous
as their champion and recog-
missed leader in this section. He
certainly IS very magnanimous
in thus proffering his services
when not needed, and the farm

rewarded for his ebullition of
kindness, by letting him re.

they send plain Jimmy, the car.

their interests. Thanks, Judge,

they will tell you quick.-Mis-

FLORAL DECORATIONS.

How to Make q House Look at Its nest
for Weddings and Parties.
1t is truly amazing to know the
amount that is spait for floral deco
rations eEers year. Daring the pres
ent season flower weddings are the
correct thing. and a:s as pretty as
they are IuveL Ole bride. whose
name was Lily. had the wh lie house
decorated with lily OF the valley.
Another, whose name was kose. used
roses for the decorations. Pansies,
with their almost human faces, make
very effective decorations.
The old-tims wedding bell has been
done away with and the umbrella.
wishbone, four-leaf clover and other
new designs have taken its place
Among the latest things are found the
portieres, which are formed OF
dozens OF ropes Of sn,iiax, dotted here
and there with rosehal. A canopy
Of smilax makes q most effective and
simple bower OF green.
Large balls. suspended by almost In.
visible wires. are as odd q, they are
pretty. Tho franc Is composed OF
wire and filled with wet moss; then it
10 filed as any other design is. Ferns
and scarlet flowers are especially pref.
ty for such design.
A pretty idea is to decorate house
throughout with tho same color; for
instance. yellow or pink. Roses, car.
nations and other flowers Of the same
shade are used. White can be used
with any color and plenty OF ferns.
smilax and other green.
At pretty wedding that occurred
In November, when flowers were
scarce and high, the decorations were
mostly OF arbor vitae and the red, Bit
ter.sweet berries. The dining-room
was festooned with ropes of arbor
vitae, dotted here and there with the
bitter-sweet In the parlors there
were ropes Of green and canopy OF
smilax, under which hung four.leaf
clover design. Bouquets OF roses and
carnations were scattered here and
there
An apple-blossom wedding, who're
the entire decorations were the sweet
scented apple blossoms, was truly a
pretty scene. Field daisies used for
designs, banks, bouquets and baskets
make lovely decorations. Fancy
shells filled with moss and howers and
an occasional fern mako the most
graceful aud effective decorations.
All sort, OF odd shapes can To used.
and whore they VIII not hold water
very well, fill with wet sand before
putting in tho flowers. Nasturtiums
ara especially pretty for decorating
house and will last SO long. They
can be grown in water all winter, or
In earth, and their foliage is so grace
ful. Sweet peas and mignonette are
particularly pretty in slender, glass
vase RI o-bowls Or jars OF blocked
glass are rnuch in vogu, now, and
can be found in all styles and sizes.
At recent wedding reception that
was given by a bride who had every
thing that love or money could buy, it
was noticed that the house was deco
rated with garden flowers. The
parlor was made fragrant with
slender vases and rose-bowls. filled
with sweet peas, and the dining-room
was gorgeous with tho many colored
nasturtiums. Carrie May Ashton, in

STIRRING UP STRIFE,

tween Two Monster Reptiles.

now An Apo Brought About q Battle De.
tween Two Monster Reptiles.
One morning, says traveller In
Java. was standing beside small
lake fed by one Of the rills from the
mountains. Stretching its limbs over
this pond was gigantic teak-tree.
and in its thick, shining, evergreen
leaves 10y huge boa, in an easy coil,
evidently taking his morning nap.
Above him was a powerful ape OF the
baboon species--a leering race Of
scamps, always bent on mischief.
The ape, from his position, saw
crocodile rise to the surface Of the
water. just beneath the teak limb
where lay the serpent. Quick as
thought be jumped plump upon the
boa, which fell with a splash into the
water just in front of the crocodile.
The ape saved himselfby clinging to the
limb of the tree; but a battle royal I'm.
mediately began in the water.
The crocodile had fixed its jaws In
the snake, which made the water boil
by its furious contortions Winding
his folds round and round the body OF
his antagonist, the boa disabled its
hinder legs, and by his contractions
made the scales and bones of his
enemy crack.
Over and over the combatants rolled,
neither being able to obtain decided
advantage.
All this time the cause OF the mis-.
chief was in high glee. He leaped up
and down the branches, came several
times close to the scene OF the fight,
uttered yell, and again frisked away.
Perhaps ten minutes passed and the
noise Of the conflict began to fade into
silence. The folds Of the serpent were
relaxing, and though they trembled
along the back, the head hung lifeless
In the water. The crocodile, also, was
dead. The monkey now perched on a
low limb just above the dead bodies of
his two foes, and amused himself by
making faces at them. This seemed
to be adding insult to injury. Ipicked
up stone from the edge Of the lake
and hurled it at the ape. 1t struck
him on the head and down he fell
upon the crocodile's body He was up
again in a moment, and spraug into
tho teak-tree, where he disappeared
among the thick branches. Youths

One of the boldest and most dis
gusting outrages of Reeds Congress
is the ousting of Congressman
Turpin of Alabama and the seating
Of his opponent in the last election,
McDuflie. In the election in the
fall Of 1888 Turpin received 1878
votes against 1926 for McDuffie.
It will thus be seen that Turpin had
. clear majority Of over $4,000. In
spite Of this overwhelming majority
it has been decreed by the Repub
licans that McDuffie must be seated.
There is not a particle more justic
in this action of the Republican
Congress than there would be to
oust the the Congressman from the
l4th District of Missouri and award
the place to his late honorable op-
ponent. 1t is o rank piece Of polit-
ical bulldoxing that will breed pro-
scr,ption. Many Republicans are
vehemenlly disguised at the np-
warranted and high.handcd pro-
seeding, but being under the I'M

How to Do It,,

The different farmers organ
izations now, and for monts to
come, are sure to have much
tribulation in their efforts to
secure a much needed reform in
the management Of public af.
fairs, and at the same time
keep themselves free from sus.
picion of being insincere IN
their profession of being non.
partisan in politics.
All difficulty in this connec-
ton can, however, be overcome
by adopting a very simple plan
suggested by Mr.. Richard Short,
q prominent farmer of Mont.
gomery Co., ILL.,, who is also
we'll known as an ardent sup.
porter of his party. His plan is

In speaking of the pension de-
fciency the Globe-Democrat of the
sth says:
1t is ascertained that the second
deficiency in the Pension Office will
amount to about $6,ooO,00o. THIS
will not be appropriated for at this
session, but Will be used out of the
appropriation for the next fiscal
year, making the deficiency come in
next years appropriation. This
deficiency will make the expendi.
lures Of the Pension Office June 30,
1889, to June 80, 1890, amount to
$lo9,357,534. The regular appro-
priation for this fiscal year was
$sl, ,75s,7oo. In April for this year
deficiency bill OF s2l,5os,s34 was
passed, and this, it seems, was &c.
100000 short of enough to carry
them TO the end Of the fiscal year.

Senator Plumb of Kansas, al
though strong Republican, turned
himself loose on the Mckinley
tariff bill last Friday. lie made a
tirst-class Democratic speech, and
told in plain language how the bill
increased all the necessaries of life
10 poor man all the way from 100
to 500 per cent. lie said that the
people Of Kansas demanded that
the tariff be reduced instead of in
creased, and gave notice that he
would not support the bill unless
very materially changed.

The Senate is in no great hurry
to take up the tariff bill. When it
does reach it a lengthy debate will
ensue-probably a month will be
consumed in the discussion of it,
and it will be variously amended.
1t is stated by competent authority
that there are now at least two
thousand men in Washington lob
bying with the Senate for changes
in the bill. If men and money, or,
rather, men with money, can effect
amendments, the bill will not look
like its former self when it leavs
the Senate.
