The Story OF Two Commonplace but Still
CommendabIe Lives.
Robert j. Burden
mind the day he was married, and danced
at the weddin', too,
And kissed the bride, sweet Maggie, daughter
OF Ben McGrew.
/ mind how they set up Housekeeping two
young, poor, happy fools,
When Jim's only stock was heavy truck an
four Kentucky mules.
Well, they lived along contented, with their
little Joys and cares,
An every year baby came, an twice they
came in pairs,
shoutin'. an playin an squalls,
An their singin' an laughin' an cryin' made
Bedlam within its walls.
An Jim he seemed to like it, an he spent all
his eyen'S at home;
He said it was full Of music an light from pit
TO dome.
He Joined the church, an he used to pray that
his heart might be kept from sin
The stumblin est prayin, but heads and hearts
used 10 bow when he'd begin.
So they lived along in that way, the same from
With plenty of time for drivin work an a little
time for play.
An grown around 'em the sweetest girls an
the liVlleSt, manifest DOys,-
Till the old gray heads of the two old folks was
crowned with the homliest joys.
Eli. Come to my story? Well, that's all. They'r
liYin just like said,
Only two Of the girls is married and one OF the
boys is dead;
An they're honest, an decent, an happy, an
the very best Christians | know,
Though I reckon in brilliant company they be
voted q leetle slow.
Oh, you're pressed for time. Excuse your Sure
I'm sorry kept you so long.
Good-by Now, he looked kind O. bored Ike,
an reckon was wrong
To tell such commonplace story OF two such
commonplace lives
But we can't all git drunk an gamble, an light
and run OF with other mems wives.

A ROMANTIC CASE.
A wealthy New Workers. Wife Found in
an Asylum.

a wealthy New Workers. Wife Found in
an Asylum.
NEW YORK, August cit has finally
been settled that Mrs. Isabella Jen-
nings, who has for many years been in
an insane asylum in New Jersey, is the
widow of VIM. Alfred Wichers, the
wealthy sugar reiner, who died in 1855,
A good deal Of romance and mystery
surrounds the case, which, however, is
not likely TO become public property for
the reason that the only person able
IN throw light on it-Mrs. Jen-
nings-is hopelessly insane. Mr..
WicheF's estate amounted 10 about
s.. SOC, 900, and his trustees were on the
Doint Of distributing IL among his SIS
tiers and brothers, who he directed In
his will should receive it, when in some
of his private papers they found docu-
rents in suit for divorce brought by
the Jennings woman. There was no
mention of her in the will and the trus-
tees supposed that her claim to be
widow was not very we'll founded, but
nevertheless they did not dare to go on
with the distribution Of the estate until
thu matter had been investigated. Ac-
cordingly they brought suit to have the
Standing Of Mrs. Jennings iudieially
determined.
General Davis was appointed referee
in the case. and the inquiries that ne
made established the fact that Mrs;
Jennings claim was exceedingly Wen
SonnSed. He found that Mr.. Wiechers
had. in 1877, ordered q ring made at
TifIanv's bearing the inscription: "April
> 1s77. w. to B." After that ne ana
Mrs. Jennings had lived at several places
in this eity as husband and wife, al
tbonrh under the name Of Mr.. and mrs.
Jannings. They also Travelled abroad.
Ms Jennings sued Mr.. Wiechers Tor
5;voree a little over year after their
Sasvriare. While it was pending ana
i ;r,.t after the papers in the case mao
baen served on the sugar king, MIS-
IeDninrs went suddenly insane and the
divorce dropped out OF sight. Snorsly
st ,,S that Mr.. Wiechers died.
referee Davis considered that what
haS discovered satisfactorily estao-
1ished the fact Of a marriage ana that
, nS-s Jennings was entitled to her dow
- 90 interest in Mr.. Wiecher's estate MS

Court. Mrs. Jennings will be entitled
to Sl1, 300 as her dover in the interest
In the real estate of Mr.. Wiechers, but
her relatives have agreed to pay her an
annual income OF 81, 300. The income
will be derived from a fund Of $4,000
that has been deposited with the Cen
trail Trust Company. Upon her death
the fund will become part OF the
estate.

Iowa Republicans.

CEDAR RAPIDS. Iowa, June 1.-One of the
most enthusiastic Republican conventions
ever assembled in this state convened here
at II o'clock TO- day. 1t is felt by both pay
ties that this campaign is to be a decisive
one, and its effect on national politics is
fully appreciated by every politician in the
state. The Republican party is thoroughly
united for the first time in many years, and
to-day's convention was distinguished by
its harmony and good feeling. The nomin-
alton of Hiram c. Wheeler for governor
was assured in advance, and upon the plat
form there was substantially reiteration
of the party..principles of two years ago
The convention was called to order
promptly at Ii O'Clock. John G. Stone of
Mills county, as temporary chairman, made
a rousing speech of nearly one hours dura-
ton. He was frequently interrupted by ap-
plause, but the elimination point was
reached when the name of James G. Blaine
was uttered. There is but one reciproc-
ity,'' said he, land James G. Blaine is its
prophet
At the first mention of Blaine the loyalty
of the Hawkeye Republicans TO the man
from Maine was more than grand. Cheer,
after cheer arose from the vast audience
and the ladies in the galleries went wild
with their political brothers in their mani
fesration for reciprocity and admiration for
the distinguished secretary of state.
At the conclusion of the temporary chair
mans speech new state central committee
and various committees of the convention
were appointed.
The committee on resolutions met imme-
diately after adjournment. The platform
as adopted for presentation to the conven-
ton indorses the Mckinley tariff in the
warmest terms, and particularly commends
the reciprocity provision and its interpre-
tation and observation by President Har-
rison and Secretary Blaine
Liberal pensions to disabled soldiers and
their widows are urged
The financial question is briefly disposed
OF by the Endorsement of the present silver
law Of which Conger Of Iowa has the credit
OF being the author.

Last Opportunity for Revenge.
Taking His Revenge.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-The official guillo-
tine is falling in Commissioner RaIrm's pen
sion bureau. The conduct of that bureau
is evidently based upon the belief that
private office is a private snap The
Office has been managed, or rather miSman-
aged. in the interest of the Raum family,
and now before the commissioner steps out
he purposes taking his revenge upon some
of his employees, who incurred his dis
pleasure. Among the heads that fell into
the basket are nine or ten eX-Cnion soldiers.
To friends who called in their behalf the
commissioner said they We're dismissed for
conspiracy against him and misconduct III
Office Raum says. in short, that these
clerks have given information to the news
paper men, that he has had them watched
and has now eyened up the score against
them. The truth is that Theodore Smith
and Green B. Raum, Jr. two parties whom
Secretary Noble naS dismissed because Of
grossly unofficial acts, have by these dis
missals succeeded i'll getting even with
men whom they could not improperly in
tiuence and whom they personally dislike.
The first license to sugar producers
under The bounty clause OF the new law
was issued TO Edward II. Cunningham of
Maryland. His application was made on
June 9. Tho license is good for year.

Rrice to Democrats.
Special to the Gazette

Special TO the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, July 1--Senator Calvin S.
Brice, chairman of the national Democratic
committee has written a letter of warning
and advice 10 his fellow-members Of the
central committee The letters were sent
out from New York. Senator Brice begins
with the statement that the presidential
contest is near at hand. The Republicans
are rapidly preparing for 1t and that Demo
Gratis can not be too circumspect ortoo swift
in arranging to meet them. The plan of
campaign of the Republicans, he says is
colossal system of clubs to be maintained
and supported by unlimited means drawn
from beneticiaries of the monopoly policy.
This system, he urges, can onl Y be met by
an equally extensive system of voluntary
Democratic clubs, that is, associations of
the people in their several neighbOrhoodS
for defense of their rights and interests
against those who are banded TO aSsail
them. He thinks that the approaching
struggle is to be one mainly between clubs,
and it is greatlytO be desired that uniform
and perfected system of Democratic socie-
ties, thoroughly organized and in intimate
association with each other, shall be .estab-
hshed before the beginning of next year.
Brice says he examined the plan of organ
ization now in process of successful accom-
plishment by the national association of
Democratic clubs and he feels it the duty of
every member Of the national executive
committee to give the clubs OF the association
his most hearty support, and he urges each
member of the national committee to CO.
operate with the association TO the fullest
extent. Brice concludes his letter as fol-
lows: 'sAn important feature of the plan is
system of correspondence in the several
states. This now requires urgent attention
in your state. l would, therefore ask you
to corfer with the chairman of your state
committee as soon as may be convenient,
and arrange this particular part of the plan.
Also that you will do all in your power to
facilitate organization, in other words, as
you may think best
The officers of the national association of
Democratic clubs are highly gratitied with
the recognition accorded it by Chairman
Brice. Heretofore there has occasionally
been some misunderstanding between the
association and the various state commit
tees This difference is now explained
away, and there is every indication of har-
mony and cooperation.

A BULL POOL,
BASED ON THE JULY DIVIDEND
IDEA.
The Public Debt statement Shows Con-
siderable Increase for June-Sman
Gold Export.
A Bull Pool.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
New YORK, July 1-Eyiuences to-day
were not very strongly in favor of a pro-
ionged July investment rise after all. A
real Investment boom shows Itself first OF
all in the bond market ana the market for
gilt-edged stocks, because those who re-
ceived dividends and interest are apt to
put their surplus back into securities of the
same kind as those from which the interest
and dividends We're derived. Careful
scrutiny fails to show any signs of demand
for bonds or for gilt-edged stocks. II is
true that the bond and stock markets were
very weak yesterday, but the movement
was purely speculative. \ bull pool was
formed, and the July boom idea made up its
motive power That was all. and unless an
investment demand springs up soon, which
does not seem probable now, little artificial
spurts must be short-lived
The stock market opened strong. Lon
don operators bought St. Paul ana Louis
vile and Nashville. and the whole market
advanced in the early hours. A tendency
to take profits was noticeable later, which
caused prices to fall off.
Sugar after setting up, went Off 2iI
points, owing to the application for an in
junction to restrain the payment of divi-
bends on common stock.
Gold to the amount of 5000 900 was en-
gagged for export. This was a surprise in
view Of the fact that sterling exchange
rates for long and short bills, owing TO the
purchases of stocks by London, were l cent
off from yesterday. But at man. times
during the recent good export period ex-
change rates have not justified the shipment
of gold. 1t is thought that more will be or
dered this week
less. Finals We're generally above yester-
dav
