But Rube had no mind to obey Just
yet. He determined to argue the case
little, and he said:

The old man made a leap to grasp
Rube by the collar, intending to aid
him off the place with his No. los. But
Rube was equal to the emergency. He
skillfully avoided the old MAPS grasp
and gave him a trip that sent him to
grass.
Instantly the old man was MP, and
there was blood in his eye as he
shouted:
"Trip the old man, will ye? Better
you look out!"
Bif! whackI smack! now up! now
down. now overl now under! Five
minutes passed in fierce conflict, and
then the old man signifed that he had
enough. 1t was an admission he had
never been called on to make before in
his life.
The two men arose to their feet and
arranged their disordered clothing.
Both were badly battered up, but the
old man had decidedly the worst of it.
For moment they stood surveying
each other, then the old man said:

You want her. I always said I was

PURE HUMBUG.

The circular of 8. W. Chase on the
Phillips decision is the biggest
exhibition of arrant political humbug-
eing that the peoples party dema-
Sogues, prolific humbugs as they are,
have made. No one but fool or
an If, leemable knave would think OF
attempting to persuade the people OF
Kansas that Foster would render any
decision to help the republican Prohi-
bition campaign. Chase has evidently
given up al hope and catches at every
straw. His last circular s downright
esinine.

Among the first resolutions adopted
by sub-alliances and county alliances,
and in numerous instances, was the
resolution declaring that any candidate
of the alliance party who accepted nom
nation from any other party would be
treated as a traitor. This sentiment
was repeated and emphasized by B. "a.
Clover on many occasions. Now Clio
yer himself has accepted a democratic
nomination-and Simpson and Ives,
and nine-tentbs of the alliance candi-
dates or county attorney and for rep
resent. tive. This lack of principle IS
only equalled by Willis when he de-
clares in every speech he makes that he
would not accept railroad pass. and
then goes direct to his train and rides,
on time pass, over all the railroads OF
the state.

A LEVEL HEAD.
The Advantage of Presence Of Mind
in an Emergency.

During the late strike on the New
York Central Railroad. the militia were
ordered to be in readiness in case OF
riot, but they were not called out.
In an interview, Gov. Hill said the
troops were not to be called upon ex-
cept in case of an emergency. The emer
gency had not arisen, therefore they
would not be ordered out. He remarked
that this was the first great strike with
which he had had experience, and he
did not propose to lose his head; the
only point at which there had been Sc
rious trouble was at Syracuse, and there
deputy sheriff had lost his head and
precipitated an encounter.
The strike continued several weeks,
and there was riotous action at various
points along the road, but the civil
authorities were allie to cops with it
without calling on the militia
The test OF mans real ability comes
when an emergency arises which makes
hasty call on his good Judgment and
discretion. The man who retains his
presence of mimi, maintains his e1ui-
poise and exercises sound discretion at
such critical junctures, is to be relied
on and will be put to the front.
Men with level heads have the staying
qualities which do not falter in the face
Of danger. Otis A. Cole, of Kinsman,
O., June 10, 1890, writes: SIN the fall
of 1888 was feeling very i'll. I con-
suited a doctor and he said I had
Bright's disease of the kidneys and
that he would not stand in my shoes
for the state of Ohio" But he did not
lose courage or give up; he says: ST
saw the testimonial of Mr.. John Cole
man, leo Gregory ST., New Haven,
Conn, and I wrote to him. In due
time received an answer, stating that
the testimonial that he gave was genu-
inc and not overdrawn in any particu-
lar. 1 took a good many bottles of
Warmers Safe Cure; have not taken any
for one year."
Gov. Hill is accounted avery success
full man; he is cool and calculating and
belongs to the class that do not lose
their heads when emergencies arise.

A GREAT mistake perhaps was made when
Dr.. Sherman named his great remedy Prick
ly Ash B5TTERs; but 1t is presumed that at
that time all remedies for the blood, ETC.,
were called bitters. Had he called it Prick
ly Ash Regulator" Curative" or almost
anything but Bitters, it undoubtedly would
have superseded all other preparations of
similar character. The name Bitters is mis-
leading; it is purely a medicine, and cannot
be used as beverage.

A Strange wager in Vienna.

A curious wager is at present occupy
ing the attention of such widely sepa-
rated classes as our young noblemen and
the Association of Hotel and Restaurant
Walters in Vienna Several of the
younger scions of the highest Austrian
Rristocracy, who were accustomed to
dine in an old hotel of high repute in the
Karnthner strasse, took exception to the
practice of the walters, most of whom
have seen twenty or thirty years serv-
ice, in dressing their mustacheS in just
the same fashion as the noble Swells"
they had to serve. One of the high born
customers accordingly laid wager with
some of his friends, which was immedi-
ately accepted, that within a given time
the Objectionable adornment should dis
appear from the upper lips of the walters
in all the fashionable hotels and restau-
rants in Vienna, otherwise the proposer
himself was to shave off his own embel-
Gshment for given period.
In order to effect his purpose the latter
commenced by trying to persuade the
hotel keeper in the Karnthner strasse to
forbid all his servants wearing mus
taches on penalty of losing his aristo-
cratic customers. In this case he succeed

married men, one after another gave
notice to leave their places. They were
at once replaced by younger men, who
for consideration submitted to the i'm
posed humiliation. The same thing hap
pened in a number of other hotels and
restaurants, and the wager was nearly
won by the layer when the proprietor of
the Hotel Imperial, the first hotel in vi
emma, fatty refused to comply with the
whim of the Vienna jeunesse doree,
whom he told outright that if they de-
serted his house he should readily find
better customers.
The case was also taken up, las mat
ter of right and honor" by the Associa-
ton of Walters, which thFeateped to ex-
pei from the society any member degrad-
ing himself by humoring aristocraac
caprice in this matter. Thus the matter
stands at the present moment. The bet
appears likely to be lost, and then will
come the triumph of the walters, who
expect soon to have the satisfaction of
seeing their would be dictator instead of
themselves going about with shaven lip.

Stole Busts from a Cemetery.

met with the punishment which his
lugubriops labors deserved. Moreau,

Mdfeau in the cemetery long passed un-
perceived. He was accordingly able to
make some money by his dismal and de-
plorable trapsactiops, and it is consid-
cred probable that many of his trans
formed bnsts now adorn not only the
humble homesteads of artisans in Paris,
but also the libraries and museums of
some provincial towns. On one occa-
