From speech by n. H. owings, November, 1884,
Ii the Senate viii indulge me, l win relate g
little incident which gave me very accurate in
sight into his character. The Office of governor
was about to become vacant in the territory,
and Mr.. Squire went to Washington to urge the
appointment OF a distinguished citizen of this
territory. The president, after long hesitation,
declined TO appoint the friend of Mt. Squire, but
rendered the Office to Governor Squire, who as
sured him how very gratifying it would be TO re-
eelve the appointment at his hands, but he felt
under the circumstances he could not honorably
do so. Another was appointed in his stead. All
these facts came under my personal observation.
Mr.. President, it is such acts as these that
show us the true nobility of character of
our fellowmen; it is such acts as these
that make "the whole world akin" Years after
this incident President Arthur appointed him
governor OF the territory. During his term of
Office had the honor of holding the position of
secretary OF the territory. My relations ofic-
tally and otherwise were Of the most intimate
character, and in this prefence will say, that
after coming in contact with the military and
civil officers OF this government for twenty
eight years. can with most perfect confidence
assure you have never come into official re-
iauonship with more honorable, honest, con-
scientious officer than Watson C. SQUIRE Be-
sides all this he is of the largest holders of
realty in the state. His wealth does not con-
slst OF corporation property or of stocks, but OF
farms and city property; hence there need be no
fears of his official acts fayoring corporations.
II is enough for me TO know the fact that no
corporation in this state is friendly to his candi-
dacy. There has also been much talk about
certain patronage to accrue to certain persons
IN the event OF the election OF certain gentlemen
Tor United states senator's; also certain legisla-
ton to be secured for the benefit of certain To-
ealities. Whether this be true or not do not
know; if it be true more is the pity

Only One Doubtful Thing.


MISSOURI, MOilt-, G3Zettc.
nr. Metcalfe, of Stevens county, created a
sensation in the Washington legislature yester-
day by walking UP to the speakers desk and de-
posting $500, which he claimed had been given
him to vote for Cslkins for United States sena-
tor. The incident reminds one of an incident in
Subsidy PoIneroy's career, where the same trick
was played aud resulted ia the election of In
gals to the United States senate The onlv
thing which makes a person doubt Mr.. Net-
Gales story is the miserably small amount Of
the collateral offered for his vote Calkins is no
fool and knows that legislators, even in these
degenerate days, come higher than 500 aplece

The fight over the election OF a senator was as
lively in the state Of Washington as anywhere in
the land. The legislature IN that state has bir
Republican majority. but senator Squire. who
was elected last year, had 70 fight for full term
his rival being Jodge Calkins, who was sup
ported by Nelson Bennett and other Tsroy,s
people, but who had little backing outside that
city, except with the spokane Resissr. They had
q stormy time OF il IN Olympia; harsh things
were said. and one of the Squire men ouenIy
charged that he had been offered $500 TO vote Tor
Cal&ins, but in the end Senator Squire got a fnu
term without much ado.

Too Recent an Arrival.
Spokane Falls Review.

An unwritten law Of the party called for the
return Of Senator Squire, and the fact that NJ
Cslkins came recently from the East influenced
great many and gave his opponent an element
OF strength which he otherwise would not have
obtained There is reason fer eongrstulstion
that The contest IS over so quickly, and that the
pressing business OF legislation can now On
forward without interruption or DELAY.

Advice to Tipplers.

"Let me give you some good ad. vice." said the all night bartender, rubbing the edges of the glass with lemon; 'let me give you some good advice. Don't ever call for cocktail, or any other kind of mixed drinks for that matter, or for a hot drink unless you know the barkeeper. Why nots Because no matter what grade the saloon is they work of machine. made whisky on the fancy-drink man, You can't tell the difference between the imitation and the straight goods until later. The essences and lemon disguise it. There's big winning on fancy drinks. Six or eight year old liquor is worth, say eight or nine ecents drink. The same quantity of com pounded whisky wouldn't represent a cent, or two at the outside Chicago Tribune.

How to Tap ar the Fingers.

"lf your fingers "once so shapely'' like Hannah Jane's "have grown stumpy at the ends. do not despair The means of restoration are within your grasp. A firm in this city is pre- pairing to turn out 100000 meta tips, varying in size from three-tenths of an inch to nine-tenths of an inch, which are to be worn on the fingers at night to produce the desired taper The largest size is intended for great, bulky thumbs. while the smallest is to mould baby's soft flesh to the proper point of beauty.
 What with hair crimpers, face masks, nose machines, finger tips, and all the other aids to beauty worn in the still and silent watches of the night, l know of no one, not even ex. cepting a submarine diver, whose ap- pearance IS more uncanny than that of would-be reigning belle-Chicago News

Why the Price of Soup Was
 Raised.

The price has been advanced five cents n plate for soup orders at Young's hotel because we would like to freeze out those who are known as the "soup tiends." They order plate of soup, and, not content with the allow ance of bread and butter usually ac- companying such an order, ask for more. Sometimes this order IS repeat ed twice and three times, so that when We come to reckon up the profits of the day We find that we are not in- frequently out from ten to fifteen cents on soup orders. This is the reason we have raised the price of soup from fifteen to twenty cents per plate. The same difficulty has prevailed in other hotels and l am pleased to learn that the proprietors, like ourselves, have made notable advance in the price. It is the only way tohopefor anything like q profitable business with these people.-lnterview in Boston Globe.

THE VEGETABLE FLY,
Buries Itself In the Ground, Sprouts
 and Grows Into a Tree.

Buries Itself In tho Ground, Sprouts
 and Grows Into Tree.
 One of the most curious natural productions of the West Indies is the famed vegetable fly, an insect about the size and color of drone bee, but without wings. In the month of May it buries itself in the earth and begins to vegetate. By the beginning of June q sprout has issued from the creatures 8 back and made it's appearance above the surface of the ground. By the end of July the tiny tree, known on the island as the fly tree, has attained it's full size, being then about three inches high, but perfect tree in every par ticular, much resembling Q delicate coral branch Pods appear on it's branches as soon as 1t arrives at it's full growth; these ripen and drop of in August. Instead of fcontaining seeds, as one would naturally suppose, these pods have from three to six small, hard worms upon their interior.
 The pod soon shrivels up in the hot sun and bursts open on about the third day after becom ing detached from the parent stem. The little worms roll out and bury themselves in the sand, and, after under going the change incident to all caterpillars, become flies, which, when the proper time comes, bury themselves in the ground to furnish nourishment for another miniature ''f1y .ree.". Dr. Martinis- que, of the Royal Institute, who has received several boxes of these flies, upon which he has made repeated ex- periments, gives long scientific ex- planation for the seeming impossibili- ties attrishted to this insect, which is, at best, wholly unsatisfactory to the general reader, even though his CO., workers in that branch of science may consider it explanatory and conclu.

 This same Robert Patterson after. ward distinguished himsslf in the bor- der fights. He was in several expedi. tions under General Clark, was second in command under Colonel Boone at the battle of Blue Licks, and subse- quently attained to the rank of colonel himself. He was the original proprie- tor of Lexington, Kentucky, and one third owner of Cincinnatti, Ohio, at the time 1t was first lad out. He died in 1927, at the ripe age of seventy. four.

All grim, and soiled. and brown with tan,
l saw strong one, in his wrath,
Shifting the goddess shrines Of man
Along his path.
The Church, beneath her trembling dome,
Essay'd in vain her ghOstly charm,
Wealth shook within his gilded home
With strange alarm.
Fraud from his secret chambers fled
Before the sunlight bursting in;
Sloth drew her pillow DER her head
To drown the din.
"Spare." Art implored, "yon holy pile,
Meek Reverence, kneeling in the aisle,
Cried out, ''Forbear"
Grey bearded Use, who, deaf and blind
Cropped for his old accustomed stone,
Lean'd on his staff. and wept to find
His seat o'erthrown.
Young Romance raised his dreamy eyes,
Oerhung with paly locks of gold;
"Why smite, he asked, in sad surprise,
The iair-the old?"
Yet louder rang the strong ones stroke
Yet nearer flashed his axes CLEAN,
Shuddeting and sick of heart, woke,
AS from dream.

The waster seemed he builder. too
Up-springing from The ruined old

Twas but the ruin OF the bad.
The wasting of the wrong and i'll;
Whate er of good the old time had
Was living still.
Calm grew the brows OF him feared
The frown which awed me passed away,
And left behind smile which cheer'd
Like breaking day.
The grain grew green on battle-plains,
Ger swarded war-mounds grazed the
COW;
The slave stood forging from his chains
The spade and pillow.
Where trown'd the fort, p9viions gay,
And cottage windows, fower-entwned,
Looked out upon the peaceful bay,
And hills behind.
Through ,ine-wreath'd cups, with wine
once red
=
Drawn, sparkling, from the rivulet head,
And mossy rll.
Through prison-wall>, like heaven-sent
hope,
Fresh breezes blew and sunbeams strayed:
And with the idle galIows-ropc
The young child play'd.
Where the doomd victim in his cell
Had counted DER the weary hours.
Glad schoolgirls answering 10 the bell,
Came crowned with flowers.
Grown wiser for the lesson given,
fear no longer, for know
That where the share is deepest driven
The best fruits grow.
