victory In The Air.

A magnificent victory for the Re-
publican ticket is in the air; the
people are awakening to the fact
that the grand old party of free soil,
free speech and free men has ever
been faithful to its promises. 1t
promised a revision of the tariff and
continued protection to American
labor at Chicago, and Harrisburg,
and the reverberating guns on
College Hill, told how faithfully
those promises have been kept. 1t
also promised to restore the Unequal
tiles existing between gold and sill
yer and that promise has been faith
fully kept ; it promises free ballot
and an honest man count in every
nook and corner Of the Republic and
it goes without saying that such a
guarantee will be duly spread upon
the statute book upon the reassem-
bling of congress. And last but
not least the Republican party of
Pennsylvania stands pledged to the
equalization of taxation and that
promise saoredly made will be
sacredly kept, Senator Delama.er
leaves no room, for doubt upon this
question; his language is clear, de
cisive and emphatic we quote his
exact words: IF I am. elected
Governor I will make it my busi-
ness to see that every promise made
in that platform, (referring to the
platform adopted at Harrisburg,
June 25, l890), is carried out. .
Contrast his manly utrerances with
the slippery, evasive and non-com.

a young man who is employed in
the Office of u leading local architect
was greatly chagrined to discover,
when he reached home the other
night, that the conductor of an Indi-
ana venue car had foisted upon him
a half dollar in which there was a plug
half as large as the coin itself. He was
primarily disguised at being made the
victim of such a palpable fraud, and
he declared his intention of handing it
back to the offending conductor, if
possible. Accordingly he timed the
mans car and boarded it on the fol.
lowing morning. That night he re-
turned home and proudly boosted that
his use had been successful and that
he had handed back the spurious half
whence it came. In proof Of this he
exhibited the change, and among it he
was panied to discover a plugged
nickel which could not have deceived
a blind a He resolved to give this
back to the same conductor, and the
next time he boarded his a he so ar
ranged the nickel in his fingers that the
plug would not be conspicuous when
he handed 1t over. Just as the con-
ductor approached him, the man sit
ting at his left said: Excuse me, sir,
but / see you have a nickel there; l
have a dime, and if you will give me
your nickel l will pay both fares" AS
there was no visible way out of it, the
young man handed the plugged nickel
in silence, but he went out on the
front platform and froze during the
rest of the trip, lest the stranger
should discover the plug.-Chicago

1t is a popular error that mushrooms
grow to their full size during a single
night, and that they dissolve and van
ish after the sun shines upon them.
They are rapid in growth and rapid in
decay; but the same mushroom may
be watched growing and expanding
for two or three days, and then gradu-
ally decaying away. Much depends
on the dampness or dryness of the
season. In some seasons they are ex-
ceedingly plentiful, while at other
times they are comparatively rare.
This also is believed to depend on eli
matte conditions. 1t is not unusual
for cultivated mushrooms to become
attacked by a parasitic mold, which
renders them unfit for food. This
misfortune rarely happens TO the wild
form until it is in process of decay.
The catacombs of Paris are noted for
their production of mushrooms in i'm
mense quantities. From the Merry
caves as many as 5000 pounds are
sent to market daily. We have heard
of a crop being grown in a hat box

When you are in New York, hurry
as the New Workers do, is a very good
rule for visitors to the metropolis to
observe. Just as soon as you begin TO
act in the streets as if you had plenty
of time to transact business in, the po-
lice begin to look on you with suspi-
cion, people bump against you, tread
on your heels and swear at you, and
an entire stranger is apt to grasp you
by the hand, call you by name, as
sure you that he is an old friend
Of your favorite relative and ask
you TO cash a check for him.
Many New Workers hurry along
the streets for this reason alone,
because everybody else is hurrying,
and to walk slowly is to get in every
body's way. Many others hurry from
force of habit, believing themselves to
be in terrible haste when really they
are not in anything like the hurry
they think they are.
The writer found himself following
such "a man the other day. He dashed
up the stairs of the elevated railway
two steps ut a time, and then fretted
five minutes for a train; jumped for it
as soon as the guard opened the gates
and had to be thrust back to let the
passengers off first; stood by the door
ready to jump of for full two minutes
before the train stopped; sprang off
and Numbered down the stairs, jost-
ling and pushing those who were COM
ing up, as if he only had two seconds
to catch a ferryboat and did not expect
another until the spring, and soon
disappeared far ahead in the crowd.
When the writer overlook him again
he was planted squarely in the way of
a dozen other people who were really
in a hurry, and was calmly reading a
newspaper bulletin board from top to
bottom.-New York Tribune.

/ recently witnessed a strange, and
to me an almost unprecedented sight,
viz, a perfectly tame, full grown
rutfed grouse, says a writer in Forest
n Stream. 1t is a fine, large male
bird. | at first, in passing the window
on the street, thought IL a skilled specI-
men of the taxidermist's art. lstoppcd,
went into the store, and, upon inquIr-
ing OF the proprietor, armed its his
tory. 1t was an acquisition Of but a
few days possession. He found it in
almost an expiring state from starva-
ton in an u~noccupied house IN the
suburbs of our city. You know of the
wild, frenzied flight of these birds in
autumn, frequently dashing them
selves 10 death against houses or win
dows; several have thus been killed
in our city. This one seems TO have
dashed through a window of a desert
ed house. and not being able to find
its way out, was almost in articulo
morris when picked up. With much
difficulty ii was restored. A drop of
water was inserted in its mouth, then
a bit of grape pulp, and SO little by lit
tie nourIshcd until the bird uow feeds
kindly and confidently from the hand.
1t Is almost o~mnivorous in its tastes
takes clover leaves, raw cabbage,
grape, apple, parched corn, or what is
known as pop corn" corn, birch
buds, bread, etc. Solitary, silent star
walton seems to have annihilated the
wild, unconquerable instinct.
Tie secret to a door seems here to
have been opened to its possible domes-
tication. Its kind hearted possessor is
already inquiring round among the
boys for a partner and wife for his
solitary pet, Some starving, impris-
oned bird may yet be found by the
farmer boys beneath the snow crust
after some winter storm, and allow us
10 carry out this curious experiment to
domesticato n hitherto deemed incor-
RICHLY untamable bird.

By far the deepest lake known in the
world is Lake Baikal, in Siberia, which
is every way comparable to the great
Canadian lakes as regards size; for,
while its area of over 5000 square miles
makes it about equal to Erie in super
fetal extent, its enormous depth of be-
tween 1000 and 4,5OO feet makes the
volume of its waters almost equal to
that of Lake Superior. Although IFS
surface is 1850 feet above the sea lever,
its bottom is nearly 5000 feet below it.
The Caspian lake, or sea, as it is usually
called, has a depth in its southern basin
Of over 5000 feet. Lake Maggiore is
5000 feet deep, Lake Como nearly 1000
feet and Lago-di-Garda, another Italian
lake, has a depth in certain places of
1900 feet. Lake Constance is over 1000
feet deep, and Huron and Michigan
reach depths of 900 and 1000 feet.-New

THE Sun does not plunge with head
long enthusiasm into the defense of the
golden haired Mr.. Medium, secretary OF
Wyoming. 1t does not attempt to charge,
as the secretary did, that THE LEADER
misrepresented him when it said that the
council investigation committee reported
that he had violated the law. In fact 1t
doesn't make the least bit of difference
what any other man nay or may not have
done under the same circumstances, it is
no justification for Secretary Medium

What Lemon juice VIII Do.

A good deal has been said lately
through the papers about the health
fulness of lemons. The latest advice
how to use them SO they will do the
most good runs as follows: Most PEG
pie know the benefit of lemonade be-
fore breakfast, but few know how it is
more than doubled by taking another
at night also. The way to get the bet
ter of a bilious system without blue
pills or quinine is to take the juice of
one, two or three lemons, as the appe-
tite Graves, in as much ice water as it
is pleasant to drink, without sugar, be-
fore going to bed. In the morning on
rising, or at least half an hour before
breakfast, take the juice OF ono lemon
in a goblet of water. That will clear
the system of humors and bile, with
mild efficacy, without any of the
weakening effects of calomel or Con-
gress water. People should not irri,
tate the stomach by eating the lemons
clear; the powerful acid juice, which
is almost corrosive, infallibly produces
inflammation after a while; but prop
erly diluted, so hat it does not burn
or draw the throat, it does its full
medicinal work without harm, and
when the stomach is clear of food has
abundant opportunity to work on the
system ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Union.

Epoch

The transition from long, lingering and
painful sickness to robust health marks
an epoch IN the life of the individual.
Such a remarkable event is treasured in
the memory and the agency whereby the
good health has been attained is crate
fully blessed. Hence it il that so much
is heard in praise Of Electric Bitters. SO
many feel they owe their restoration to
health to the use OF the Great Alternative
and Tonic. If you are troubled with any
disease of kidneys, liver or stomach, of
long or short standing, o will surely find
relief BY use of Electric Bitters. Sold at

THE QUESTION OF NEW COUN

This thing OF creating a county for
every little precinct hat desires to be,
come a county seat will bankrupt the PEG,
pie of the territory. The taxpayers can
not stand the strain OF maintaining a
county organization In every district hav
ing q few hundred thousand dollars worth
Of property. and no county should be per
mitted to organize with less thsn 81, 900,
900 worth of taxable property. The
eleventh legislative assembly will do well
to be exceedingly careful in the matter Of
creating new counties. and whers there is
= question as to the advisability OF a
measure. the taxpayers should be given
the benefit of the doubt.

Perhaps the readers OF The LEADER
Iould like to know in what respect Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is better than
any other. We will tell you. When this
Remedy is taken as directed, as soon as a
cold has been contracted, and before it
has become settled in the system, it will
counterfeit the effect of the cold and
greatly lessen its severity, if not effec.
tually cure the cold in two days time and
it is the only remedy that will do this. 1t
acts in perfect harmony with nature and
aids natur in relieving the lungs, open
ing the secretions. liqueiying the mucous
and causing it's expulsion from the air
cells of the lungs and restoring the sys-
tenn to a strong and healthy condition.
No other remedy in the market possesses
these remarkable properties. No other
will cure a cold as quickly or leave the
system in as sound a condition. so cent
