An In,proxed shirt.

An idea as old as the hills is gaining
recognition now. after having failed
persistently. speak of the idea of the
GOAT shirt. This is garment which
IN most respects does not differ from the
ordinary dress shirt. 1t has no claim to
novelty IN appearance when it is worn.
The advantage is in the putting on. The
garment does net go over the head, but
IS adjusted in the same way as an or
dlnary coat. It is closed behind and en-
hrely open in front It is being put
upon the market this year, and its future
looks brighter than ever before. In
swelldom it is not unknown already, but
it has never gained wide popularity

Attention has recently been drawn In
England to a species of fraud which IL
becoming somewhat common in tfis
country. 1t appears that hundreds of
pianos are annually brought over from
Germany for the purpose only of being
sold by auction. Occasionally they bear
real names, and often purely apocryphal
ones But many of them boast name
labels, which closely resemble those of
eminent manufacturers, The pianos are
usually shipped without names and the
name labels are put on in London. There
are makers in Berlin and other German
cities who will ship any number of
shoddy pianos without names at about
eighty dollars each, and with them will
send a gross or more of assorted name
labels, so that the dealers, or, for the
matter of that, the purchaser can choose
any makers name he pleases.
Some eminent German firms who
have agencies in London now take stems
to prevent any imitation of their name.
But unless the firms themselves take
action the pianos go to the docks by doz-
ems, and nobody seems TO care that a
fraud is being permitted upon the pub
lie. 1t is satisfactory to know that the
piano manufacturers of this country are
becoming alive to the necessity of taking
steps to prevent this injury to the public
and to themselves. Not long ago a well
known New York firm had occasion to
take action in n case of this kind. and
had the satisfaction of securing YER

always has been, and will be until the
campaign of education has done better
work than it has been able to do up to this
time. The west is broad and great but it
Is Republican IN politics, however un-
pleasant it may be to make this confession.
And now, having admitted all that Is
claimed by the Republicans and anti
CLEVELAND Democrats in regard to the
contemplated reputation, let us see how
the case stands. 1t is probable that repre-
sentation in the convention will be based,
as in the past, on the representation in
Congress. The number of delegates will,
therefore, be equal to the number of Sen
ators, Representatives and Delegates in
Congress, or some multiple of that num-
Der. Let US assume that the delegates will
equal the votes in the electoral college, plus
four for the territories-a total of AS. We
may then arrive at the vote in the conven-
ton as follows:

HIS CHANCES.

Those politicians and those editors who
CLEvELAND's letter Will defeat him in tho
national convention next year are not doing
Justice to their intelligence and powers of
observation. They are accepting as con-
elusive that which is not at all conclusive
nor likely to be so. If these gentlemen
would look over the field moment and in
diligently consider the situation, they
would see that whatever may be the effect
OF the letter on the voters it will greatly
strengthen its writer in the convention. 1t
may be, as some assert, that the west will
not support Mr.. CLEVELAND; but the
west will not have a controlling
voice in the convention, nor will it
cut much of figure in the Democratic COL
umn on that November morning Of 1892,
when the votes are counted. Nobody will
pretend to deny that the letter has brought
to Mr.. CLEvELAND's support all the Demo-
Gratis in the east, and their representatives
will come to the convention determined to
have him. The south will insist upon him
as matter of course. The people down
there may want free coinage, but they
want more national administration
which will be safe, fair and just,
and they realize that MIR. CLEVELAND
will give such an administration.
Then with the east and the south standing
firm for Mr.. CLEVELAND what can the
west, which cannot promise the Democ-
racy single vote in the electoral college,
do? If it gets mad enough, it may s'bolt, u
and what would be the consequence on
election day? Not solitary electoral vote
lost to the Democratic nominee.
Some people may not like this kind OF
talk, and may say that it belittles the west.

Total

Thus it will be seen that even in the
event of the entire west going against Mr..
CLEVELAND he will yet have nearly two
thirds of the entire vote of the convention.
1t is ridiculous proposition that all the
western Democrats are opposed to the ex
President, or in favor of the free coinage
of silver We find right here in Utah, the
centre of the silver producing region, both
Democrats and Republicans who stand ex-
actly where Mr.. CLEVELAND does on the
proposition, and the anti-free coinage SEN
timent is found all through the west.
Looking over the situation in GOODNESS
and elaboration we fail to see anything
which can give the enemies to CLEVELAND
the slightest degree of comfort On the
contrary, the letter greatly strengthens the
chances of the man with those who will
name the next Democratic nominee.

BoNELEss CHILD OFGEORGIA.
A Curious Freak of Nature Said to
Exist Near Athens.


Exist Near Athens.
Athens (Ga.) Banner: There is in the
State of Georgia to-day child eleven
years old, but very little larger than
when it was born, and without a bone
in its entire body.
A citizen of Athens tells US this and
he is a gentleman of undOubted veracity.
The names of the parents and the place
where they reside are not given, as they
are sensitive upon the subject.
This curious freak of nature is sug-
gested at present by story going the
rounds of the press concerning woman
in New York gradually becoming ossi-
fed. She noticed the ends of her fin
gers becoming stiffened, and one day
knocked one of her fingers against la
bic and broke off the end joint. 1t was
solid bone and very brittle. Her nose
and feet are now turning to bone.
On the other hand, here is q human
being without bone in its body. If
the former is curiosity, what must be
this latter?
The child in question was born with
out any bones in its body, and has lived
until 1t is eleven years old. 1t has
never grown to any appreciable size,
and although eleven years old, is not

has never talked, and, consequently,
takes no notice of its surroundings.
Necessarily, it is hard thing to keep
it alive, but its parents are very devoted
to it, and some one stays by it con-
stantly to feed it on milk and water. 1t
Unnecessary to give it milk or water al
most every fifteen minutes.
Strange to say, the mother is more de-
voted to it than any of her other chill
dren, and says she would rather give
any of them up than this one. If this
child were to die, she says, it would
land her IN the asylum.
For years and years she has set by its
bedside, and her mind has been so con-
stantly upon it that she would go crazy
if it were taken from her.
The child gives no evidence of ever
growing any larger than it is now.
This is vouched for as the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the truth,
and the gentleman who told this knows
the name of the parents and where they
live.

an experiment, for he has worked one
of the machines in the open field under
the natural conditions. 1t did its work
well and to the satisfaction of the in
YentOr.
In appearance this fax pulier is like
the reel of a harvester. 1t is made to
take the place of the reel on the har-
vester when in operation. One of its
motions is the same as that of the
reel. The pulling arrangement consists
OF a bar,- corrugated to give it firm
hold on the fax plant. that fits along
the lateral pieces on the reel. Al GER
tain point in the revolution of tie reel
this bar which is held away from the
reel by spring, drops down TO the reel
arm, gathering a bunch of fax as it
falls. There it is caught by tension
spring that holds it firmly against the
reel arm. The fax that has been gath
cred by the bar in its fall is gripped he
tween the bar and the reel arm proper,
and the ordinary working of the reel
pulls the fax from the ground. As the
reel revolves still further, carrying the
flax with it over the apron of the har-
VeSter, the tension spring relaXes, the
bar holding the flax against the reel
arm drops away, and the flax falls OH
the apron and bound up into a sheaf
the same as wheat. 1t is simple in OPP
Grafton and effective in execution. The
hbre of the fax is not injured. The
pulling machine can be attached to the
ordinary harvester, is made to be so at
tached. 1t Is a great Improvement over
the old system of pulling by hand.
