1T A A CANARD.

The political world was recently set
agog by an alleged interview with a Hoos-
Ter editor who was said to have visited
Governor Hill to discover directly from
headquarters whether or not David B.
was ''in 1t" SO far as the presidential nom
ination was concerned. Governor Hill
was represented to have said that he was
lin 1t" clear up to the neck and that his
choice for running mate was Governor
GRAY OF Indiana. The Hoosier editor
was then reported to have emitted a loud
aud prolonged warwhoop indicative OF his
great joy, after which he started Tor
the sylvan seclusion of ~Shelbyville, his
home. The Hoosier editor has now been
directly heard from. He denies the in
terview with great circumstantiality. He
did not visit Governor Hill as the accred-
tied representative of Governor Gray.
and in his Judgment the bogus interview
was concocted for the sole purpose of IN.
juring Gray's chances for the nomination,
The S~helbyville mans first choice for tn,
presidency is Gray, with Hill a clos,
second.
We feel assured hat this
will be received with considerable satis
faction throughout the country.

hteTisetuRI Men and ouid.'s Novels
Some time ago a busy man of the
world asked Mr.. Charles A. Dana how
he managed to keep himself mentally
so fresh and vigorous. Mr.. Dana gave
several explanations, and among others
he admitted that he had taken 10 read
ing novels. Frequently Mr.. Dana is
seen riding on the elevated reading q
novel or a volume of short stories, and
the smile which plays on his face indi-
Gates how thoroughly he delights in such
pursuit. He is a great admirer of a nov
eist whom Mr.. Howells would esteem
with horror, and that is Ouida; and it is
a curious thing, perhaps, that among the
many readers of this popular writer in
this city there are to be numbered SO
many vigorous intellects.
Roscoe Conkling anticipated a new
novel of Ouida's with as much pleasure
as a Frenchman used TO look for a new
installment of Alexander Dumas ro-
mances, and he regarded Ouida's Under
Two Flags as one of the best stories
which he had ever read, and even went
so far as to recommend that grim and
dignifed justice of the supreme court,
Samuel Blatchford, to read it if he
wanted a mental tonic. Congressman
Reed is a great admirer of Ouida, and
Joe Choate confesses to the pleasure he
has taken in reading the works of this
IN
Novel reading has become a passion
with many of our professional men, and
l saw the other day the dignifed presi-
dent of Yale college trotting across the
street to the Grand Central station with
a couple of novels under his arm and an
other one in his hand, with his fingers
inserted between the pages, as though
he had just been reading it and even be-
grudged the interruption which took
him from his hotel to the railway sta

A. p. Hulse, late of the custom house,
tells a good story of some filibustering
that came under his notice years o
In 1859 Harry Maury, a midshipman,
who had resigned from the service of
the United States government, was in
command of a brig off Mobile bay. The
vessel was loaded with filibusters for
Walker and was overhauled by a revenue
cutter. An officer went aboard in the
night with instructions to seize the yes
sci and bring her to Mobile. Maury,
who was equal to the emergency, pre-
pared himself by unshackling the anchor
from the chain and fastening a lantern
to a pole. When the vessel arrived at
Dog River bar it was hailed from the
cutter n ordered to come to.
Then came the order, Let go your
anchor!" Maury let go. PAY out
thirty fathoms of chain!" was the next
order. Maury ran the chain through
the hawser hole and over the rail back
on deck. He was ordered next to hoist
a light, which he did by lighting the
lantern already affixed to the pole and
sticking the latter in the mud. He then,
when all was quiet, put off down the
bay, leaving the cutter watching the
light, which it did until morning.
In the meantime the officer from the
cutter, who was in charge of the flibus-
tering vessel, was down in the cabin
playing cards. On arrival at the en-
trance of the harbor the officer was
tapped on the shoulder and told of where
they We're and asked if he wished to go
ashore. a boat was at his service and
he took it, returning to the cutter in
time to share the chagrin of his mates

The other day a couple of gentlemen
were l%unching rather elaborateiS at a
prominent cafe. One of them sighed
frequently and looked at his watch and
inveighed against the necessity for
work.
"Bah!' exclaimed his companion, "you

Besides you have been everywhere and
seen everything, and if you had five
millions tomorrow you couldn't enjoy it.

Dr.. c. f. Chandler of the Columbia
School of Mines says: can interesting
misrepresentation that exists in the minds
of a good many persons is concerning
the vital dangers that lurk in the pres
sure of, say, 1000 volts. The newspapers
often tell us that a man has been killed
by such a pressure, whereas, in fact,
such a pressure alone couldn't kill a
humming bird. l i have frequently caught
in my hand sparks possessing IN electro
motive force of 100, 900 volts without
feeling anything more than a very slight
burn.
THE danger arises only when the
volts are REINFORCED by a good many
amperes or currents, as when one takes
hold of IA charged ire. Then one feels
a shock that is unmistakable, because
force of a great many currents in the
wire suddenly decompose all the fluids
in the body. The salt in the blood at
once turns to chlorine gas, and the mar
whose veins are charged with this deadly
poison annot in reason be expected to
live long"

QUITE EDLFYLNG.

1t is to say the least extremely edifying
to find in a paper published in the far
East such an article as the following from
the Elmira, N. Y, telegram; IF any
Eastern politician has doubt as TO the
importance of the pending silver question
In the campaign now opening at the
West, to end only at the White house. he
can read 1t in the advice given by Wall
street organs in New York to the Demo
cratic state convention in Ohio. 1t is a fact
as true today as in the period between
1878 and 1879, that the daily press is
entirely Influenced if not owned by Wall
street and has never ceased to ciamor for
such legislation as will make gold the sole
coinage OF the country, in practice if not
by legal proclamation. On this issue the
press OF New York, and, indeed of all our
Eastern cities finds itself arraYed against a
united West and South. Iowa has de-
manded the free coinage of silver. Ohio
has followed in her footsteps. The peO-
pie of the West nave come to understand
hat they have been paving taxes aud
debts by a money standard which has
been steadily increasing in value until it
is so per cent greater now than 1t vas
eighteen years ago. Hence, they argue,

posed is that silver shall be put back ty

plies that the sooner the golden cali

does not hesitate t. say that there Is a
better understanding OF the money ques
ton in the wet than among the bankers
in the east, aud that they will be deceived
who think the silver issue can be kept out
of the campaign OF 1892. In both these
propositions the Telegram agrees with the
able western statesman, and it warns is
contemporaries and the leaders in the EN-
pire state that if the party desires victory

A boy we know had some chickens of
which he had made pets. He and his
father went to their work early in the
morning, and while the rest of the fam
lily We're away for the summer it became
a question how the chickens were to be
fed with proper regularity.
The boy wa equal to the occasion. He
took an alarm clock and fastened it Sc
curely to one side of the barn by means
of two spikes, Next he hung a bucket
of corn TO a rafter and connected it with
the clock by a stout cord.
He wound up the alarm and set it at 4
o'clock. At that hour the alarm went
off, wound up the string and tipped over
the bucket. And SO the chickens were
fed by clockwork.-Cleveland Leader.

LEADER PREMIUMS.
A Variety of Handsome Presents TO
be Given to Subscribers This
Month.
Read the List Over Carefully and
Make Your Choice Before it
is Too Late.

We desire to close out all OF our pre-
miums this month, and in order to do so
offer them as per terms given belorg,
There are nearly 400 premiums, repre-
sentIng a cash value of about 5000. All
Of these premiums arc to be given to
subscribers absolutely free. No sub
scriber, however, will be entitled to a
premium except by paying his or her sub
~scriDtiOn in advance the length Of time
specified IN the table below. The only
exception to this ruiz is where subscribers
have taken the trouble to save the pre-
MUM coupons" We make the exception
only because we advertised to give some
OF the premiums for coupons, and We do
as we agree. Twenty-Five coupons from
THE DAILY LEADER or ten from the
WEEKLY will secure any premium that
rayinE one dollar in advance will secure.
If you have no coupons then you must
pay the specified time in advance. These
are our terms and it will be useless to ask
for any others.
As the number OF premiums is a little
less than 400 and the circulation OF The
DAILY and WEEKLY LEADER combined
amounts to-ovec 400 it will be seen that
there are not enough premiums for all
subscribers. IN giving them out we shall
follow the rule of first come first served.
New subscribers as well as old may take
advantage ofthe opportunity to secure a
handsome book or picture free. Club
raisers who are working tor the prizes to
BE- awarded Aug. | should remember this
and when sending riders state which one
OF the premiums Is wanted by the sub
scrlber. All Of these premiums have
been described in previous issues of The
LEADER aud although a page could be
flied with descriptions and testimonials, 1t
will only be stated that the cash value OF
each is as shown in the table. Anyone
desiring the novels may choose any TWEEN
ty five from a list OF $50 which will be fur
nished on application Samples of all the
: rrmiums may be seen at this uffcs. Sub
scrIbers who have had one or more of the
premiums will not be entitled to the same
premium again. but are entitled to any or
all the other premiums 10y paying the
proper amount Following is the list with
