The Red-Iaired Maiden Is Fit to lie

Did you ever stop to think how few
red-haired people there are in the world?
Take any town, for instance, of three
thousand or four thousand population,
and out of that number there will be
only between one hundred and two
hundred whose heads are red, and by
'red heads" mean those of q tint vary
ing from sandy to dark auburn. So
you see that a red head is really rara
avis, and should be appreciated as such,
says q writer in the Cincinnati Com
mercial Gazette.

understand that his head, the bane of
his childhood, the never-ending butt of
ridicule in maturer years, had not only
saved his life, but made him worthy to

In many countries red hair in itself

An Illuminated Watch.

Many devices have been placed be-
fore the public from time to time in
tending to accomplish by different
methods what this firm claims to have
done with its dry batteries namely,
to provide an easy, safe and constant
means of Illuminating watch or clock
at any hour of the night by an electric
lamp. The tempolux is small divided
case with minute incandescent lamp
and reflector fixed in the rim and made
hollow, SO that the watch may be laid
inside and the case closed up, when,
upon pressing small stud, the face
of the watch will be brilliantly illum-
mated. The source of electricity is a
Gassncr dry battery, which may be put
away in cupboard or other convenient
place, flexible cord reaching from it
to the head of the bed or stand on
which the watch is placed. The bat
terry is free from smell, no chemicals are
used in it, and it will last for this pur-
pose for years.

JERRY CAUGHT EN-.
Kansas Farmers Are Still En-
thusiaStic.

SALIVA, KAN, Oct. 22.-Thls is big
day for the Farmers Alliance in Kan
sas. By numbers and demonstration, it
appears that the Alliance IN Kansas is
as enthusiastic as it was last fall and
that the farmer holds the key to the
business and political situation of the
state. The city of Salina has been be-
sieged with members of the order, and
at 10 O'Clock this morning not less than
10000 OF them had gathered about the
city. Every road leading in was filled
with wagons, buggies and hOrsemen.
The procession moved through the
main street of the city to the fair
grounds. While this demonstration was
in progress President McGrath was de-
lIverng his annual address. 1t was in
accord with his often repeated declar-
ationS that the Alliance must preserve
a business organization intact; that to
enter politics as an organization
Is to impair its usefulness. He
urged the speedy adoption of both local
and general cooperative system. lie
hoped that all jealousies and political
differences would be laid aside AMI
united support be given to those in
charge of the business affairs of the
body. He stated that during the past
year 249 sub-alliances has been formed

procession. At the fair grounds an i'm

pants in the parade.
An amusing feature of the convention
is the endeavOr of the National
Woman's Alliance to gain recognition.

membership in the Alliance, the lodges

delegates cannot understand why
separate organization should have been
formed.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. ga pub
LEGATION this afternoon to the effect that
Judge Gresham and his friends would
not antagonize President Harrison's
nomination, was confirmed by one of
the closest friends of the judge, who is
looked upon as always speaking for the
judge himself. 1t is said that Judge
Gresham's follOwings have for months
recognized the nomination of Harrison
as the logic of TIL e situation, and that
now they will assist in securing
it. 1t is asserted, by friends
of the judge. that he has always
discountenanced opposition to Presi-
dent Harrison'S denomination, and that
the conference of anti-administratiOn
people Eeld here early in the summer
was not with his consent. On the con-
trary he discouraged it.
The friends of Judge Gresham
said one of those most near to him, and
who adds his confirmation OF the pur-
pose, consider that it will ripen his
nomination chances for 1896. Judge
Gresham is constantly growing in the
country, and his position OH the tariff
will make him the kind of candidate the
Republicans will want in 1896. He is
not a high tariff man, and could not
consistently run on the kind of platform
the Republicans will be forced to put
up next year."

mendous Appetite.
BosToN. Oct. 22.-Seeretary Blaine
and party left Boston for New York on
the o'clock train this afternoon. Mr..
Blaine was met this morning at Young's
hotel. and in the course of conversation
remarked that he had enjoyed more
than four months of absolute rest. some
thing that he had not had for many
long year before. Mr.. Blaine said that
it was nearly month after reaching
Bar Harbor before he began to realize
an improvement in his health. but that
from then on, the gain had been greater
than he could have hoped for.
IL suppose some of the worthy cor
respondents will keep up the old story
of exhausted nature, shattered conStitu-
ton, etc. My appetite is vigorous, al
most inconveniently so. Now, there is
nothing so exhaustive to the average
man as travel. Well. l have done
great deaf of that in my time, but this
summer | did none, and found that rest
from that alone was highly beneficial"
Mr.. Blaine met delegation from the
Merchants association, and talked with
them quietfully and freely upon the
ditionai promise to speak thereon in
Boston some time during the winter,
qualifying his promise with the state
ment that he did not wish to be over
sanguine about his physical restoration,
and that he could not put the requisite
test upon his strength until after the
resumption of his Washington work.

PARNELLlrEs ooNFIDENr.
A Canvass of Cork Adds to Their

LONDON, Oct. 22.-The Parnellites

result so far shown by an extensive
canvass of Cork. They claim that tie
people everywhere admit that Parnell's
death has removed whatever there was
in the moral issue raised against him,

their side. The Parnelits, therefore,

HOOsIER ALLIANCE MEN.
Cooperative Buying and Insur-
ance Considered.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 22.-The
State Farmers Alliance met in secret
session to-day with eighty-one delegates
present. The committee on trade rec
commended the adoption of the illinois
PLAN" This is. briefly, that purchases
be made of the National Trade union,
which is said to be an amalgamation of
different businesses, having close rela-
ton to agricultural interests, whose pur-
pose it is TO sell directly to the con-
sumers. These businesses represent
millions, and, by selling directly to the
agent of the Alliance, the profits of
middlemen and the expense of travel
ing statesmen are cut off.
Another matter was the adoption of a
plan of insurance submitted by the Ma
ti0nal Alliance Aid Association of
Washington. This company will, like
the trade unions, supply all the capital
necessary 10 conduct the insurance
plan if the Alliance will provide the
persons to he insured. The cost of the
insurance is thus reduced to the mini
mum, it is claimed.
A programme was adopted for the
meeting here of the National Alliance
Nov. z. The following officers were
elected this afternoon: Thomas w.
Force, president; Mrs. Lou Snyder,
vice president: w. F. Prigg. secretary
Mrs. Sadie Brandenburg. treasurer; B.
+. Horn, state treasurer; j. w. Nolan,
chaplain.

DEL Rio, Tex, Oct. 22.-Full details
of pursuit and capture of the Southern

place near Juno Tuesday, and
pressed on in hot pursuit. They
caught sight of the robbers yes
terddy at o'clock p. H.. at a
distance of 300 yards in deep canon on
the Live Oak near Grierson Springs,
in Crockett county. They were unsns-
pecting of the pursuit, and were pro-
ceeding leisurely in the direction of the
Texas Pacific. which road they are
thought 10 nave had designs upon.
The posse approached unseen to
within hundred yards of the men,
when the pack horse of the robbers
took fright and made dash, which
caused the men to look around, when
they discovered the pursuers. Capt.
Jones ordered charge, and q running
fight followed. Langsdon soon weak
ened and gave up, and Tom Fields
soon afterwards, finding himself hard
pressed, surrendered. Wellington and
Flint ran several miles when the

and suicide were enacted here last
night. The principals were Mrs. A.

Ger, express messenger of the Denver,
Rio Grande Southern. Mercer, al
though married and having two chill
dren at Colorado Springs, has been liv-
ing with Mrs. Watson here. Last night
they quarreled and attracted the atten-
ton Of the neighbours. Three shots were
heard.
On making entrance into the house,
Mrs. Watson was found dead on the
floor with a bullet hole through her
breast. Mercer was unconscious, with
bullet through his abdomen and an
other through his head. He regained
consciousness, and was still alive this
morning. but he will die. He made
statement that Mrs. Watson shot him
through the abdomen, next shot herself,
and then took the revolver and shot
him through the head. The statement
is doubted, however. 1t is thought
Mercer did all the shooting.

appearance of German Troops to

BERLIN, Oct. %. The kaiser has
given his consent to the changes pro-
posed by the war Office in the appear
ance and equipment of the German
army. The chief object sought to be
a hieved is the change of bright colors
that attract the aim of the enemy for
hues that will make the soldier a IL IS
conspicuous target. White leather ac-
couterments are abolished, and the
heavy spiked helmet is discarded for
light headgear. The change will en-
lirely transform the appearance of the
German troops.
