MILES WHILE TRUTH Is PUTTING ON
HER BOOTS.
The New York Tribune of June IL,
the anniversary of the battle OF
Bunker Hill-whose editor would
have been an American Tory in the
struggles of Its and 1776, takes great
pleasure in copying canards that
originated in the official state paper
of Kansas, and which have been taken
as true by ever Republican penny-a-
liner in the state, presents the follow
ing:
One county Alliance In Kansas has already re-
solved to have nothing to do with the third party
and recommended It's members TO return to their
former political associations. Dispatches affirm
that substantially the same course will now be
taken by many other county organizations. 1t
was long ago predicted that the Alliance would
be forced to make that choice, and to face the
consequences.
This paper, the chief New York
organ of the plousiocracy, has the fol-
lowing in a dispatch from Washington,
d. G., June Is:
what do you think about the reports Of dis
lntegratlOn In the Farmers Alliance organization
In Kansas?" asked Tribune correspondent to-
day of prominent official OF the government
who halls from western state.
AnSwer-I think the reports are well founded.
The Farmers Alliance is one Of those parties
which quickly die or commit suicide when the
country passes from condition Of depression to
one Of hOpefulness and prosperity. One good
crop is fatal to such party as rule. If the
weather In July and August shall not be so dry
as TO seriously njure the cOrn the third party In
Kansas win not be large enough or strong enough
to affect political results the state.
The Chicago Tribune has had q
long editorial on the same theme, and
its philosophy is about as valuable as
was it's and the Capitals guarantee
Of the fourth return of John j. In
gals to the United States Senate.
Why, just let one notice the follow
ing suicidal confession from the Hol-
ton Recorder:
Those leading Republicans who advised Judge
Horton against accepting the prOffered associate
juslceshlp of private land claims, acted cOlVGrd
and placed the Republican party Of Kansas In
false position 1t is pretty difficult to escape the
conclusion that there Is something defective In
the eyesight Of the Republican leaders In this
state.
And, to the confusion Of the matter,
the ancient bourbon of the Troy
Chief, asks this question:
We wonder II President Harrison knew when
appointing Judge SlusS judge Of the Spanish
land court, that he was appointing more
rabid free trader than either Of his Democratic
appOlntees?
And this antedluVian Miller, who,
in 1856, turned HIS back upon Ere
mont and supported Fillmore for
president, rejoicing so much over the
supposed return of the Cloud County
Alliance to the Republican state CEN
tral committee, as some of the falsi-
flying Republicans put it, as to say:
Beginning to see it. We have been telling that
very thing for whole year.
The Abilene Reflector, having vol
unteered to say, ut turned out that
the judgeship was never offered to
Judge Horton by the president" The
Leavenworth Times thus explains it;

BUILT WITH BEETLES.

Southside Machinist Completes a Re-
markable Piece of Work-Model of the
Court House Made Entirely of Hun
dreds of Hard-Shelled Insects.
Edward Davis, of South Twenty-ninth
street, has proven his genius in the construc-
tion of model of the Allegheny County
Court House. Mr. Davis will scarcely have
to secure patent on his work to prevent its
imitation. The model is made entirely of
b -etles, comprising all the species found in
North America. Hundreds of shiny bugs
of all colors and sizes are clustered in an
almost perfect miniature of our local temple
OF justice.
Mr.. Davis is a machinist in Jones &
Laughlins' mill. He employs his odd
hours of leisure in working with his specimen
insects of which he possesses over 80, ,0OO
On tine day of the dedication of the new
Court House he conceived the idea of ar
ranging his large collection of beetles in
model ofthe structure. He has worked at
intervals on it ever since, and the result is
marvel of ingenuity and skill. Each
little bug is held in its place by
tiny wire. The whole makes a
front view of the building. showing
the big Jail fue in the rear. The
hard, glossy shells of the insects, all colors
of the rainbow give it a brilliant appearance.
The model is on display at Biggs' jewelry
store, Sixth avenue and Smithfeld street.
Mr.. Davis has been collecting specimens
for the past 20 years, and his neat little
home on Nineteenth street is full OF the re-
suits of his work.

he has done and very satisfactorily to the Board
of Directors. ..-,..
desire further to say on behalf of the Board
of Directors that no consultation will be asked
for or allowed with the strikers, and that it is
entirely outside of the power of either Mr..

once to notify the police. He Informed In

of the affair, and asked that several officers

hearing the story, declined to furnish the
officers, and Timmons had to 60 away dis

Mysterlously Disappears, and Considerable
Gossip is Caused Thereby.
Theatrical circles were somewhat talka-
tive last night over the mysterious disap-
pearance of w. B. johnson. the bookkeeper
of the Duquesne Theater. He was on duty
Friday night, but did not show up at the
theater yesterday afternoon, nor at the per-
formance last night. There were all sorts of
rumors floating around about the young
man, but Manager Fulton took them all
coolly. He acknowledged that johnson
had not appeared yesterday, and ascribed his
non-appearance to one Of two causes.
First of all, said Mr.. Fulton, 81 think
the weather was becoming little too warm
for him. You see, he has only been with us
three months. previous to which time he
was with Graham & Morton, who run line
of lake craft out OF Chicago. He loves the
water. and probably he took French leave,
in order to return to the cool breezes of the
lakes. The other theory is that he became
rather enthusiastic over the defeat of the
Pittsburg club by the Chicagoans. Either
may explain his absence. His books are
straight and he does not owe US cent He
will probably be here Sunday or Monday.
He's all right"

THE TIME NOW SHORT.

Only Four Days Before the Eight-Hour
Strike. Begins-BuiIding Trades Council
Refuses the stonemasons' Request
Twenty Plastercrs Strike.
Only four days remain until the great
eight-hour struggle in the building trades
begins. 1t is probably as well that the time
is so short, for seemingly the longer it is
the more complicated the situation becomes.
To carry out their threats the stonemasons
ought to leave the Building Trades Coun-
ell because the latter refuses to order
strike of all building trades.
The stonemasons really took the fret step
for eight hours, and they claim they ought
to receive the support of the other trades.
The Building Trades Council met last
night, and, as was expected, the meeting
was lively one. The stonemasons asked
for the support due them according
to their notion. There was a disposition
on the part of some to indorse their strike,
but this was not done. The Building Trades
Council does not claim the authority to
order trades out on strike. Each trade has
its own national organization, which pro-
vides channel through which to do its
own work and settle its own difficulties.
The stonemasons will meet tomorrow
night, when the action of the Trades Coun-
Gil will be officially reported to their body.
The stonecutters ard stone contractors
have finally agreed upon arbitration as a
means of settling their difficulty. and it is
expected to be disposed of shortly Twenty
plasterers quit work yesterday in sympathy
tor the stonemasons and hod carriers.
A meeting OF contractors was held in the
Builders Exchange, yesterday. and they
unanimously reafirmed their determination
to resist the scales. It is estimated that be-
tween s., 10000 and So, 800. 900 is tied up in
plans locked up in architects drawers,
awaiting the settlement of the present diff

Two Families Of Eight Boys Cause Rict IN the Alley

There was funny scene yesterday after
noon, at 1856 Penn avenue, when a Constable
and Deputy Sheriff tried to sell the samt
property at auction at the same time. Il
gave amusement TO a crowd that packed the
little grocery shop and filled the sidewalk,
At one time it looked as ii there might be a
resort to fsticuffs between the rival repre-
sentatives of the law, for each had his
partisans, and they legged" on their
fsvorites without stint.
Constable P. NJ. Connolly had 8 land.
lords warrant for rent, amounting to S3S. 40,
while the deputy sheriff held judgment
for groceries purchased from the Arbuckles.
The constable had put up bill of sale on
the window, and so had the deputy sheriff.
The constable'S warrant was dated April II
while the sherif's bore date two days later.
When they met at the store each insisted
that the law gave him precedence In the sale.
Both Officers Begin the Sale.
"Well," exclaimed Connolly, ~ propose

stock had been sold to satisfy the landlord s
warrant. When he had finished the deputy
sheriff sold the balance of the goods. The
dispute between the men was as to who, u1-
der the law, was entitled to precedence. and
the constable won.
The Tenant Had Skipped Away.
The story leading up to the comedy is
somewhat peculiar in itself The building
1886 Penn avenue has been occupied for a
year or so by Leon Ulischer, as dwelling
and grocery store. The place is owned by
c. S. Hauser. Ulischer for some reason,
doubtless due to the many small groceries in
that vicinity, did but little business, ana
soon became deeply in debt. About ten
dayS ago UliScher left with his family for
Arkansas, after getting together all the
money he could collect.
He did not bid any of his neighbors good
BY nor did he show any anxiety to meet
any of his many creditors. In fact, so hasty
was his flight, that be forgot to take with
him his nephew, who had been helping him
about the store. The youngster, when he
found himself left alone, concluded to make
the best OF bad bargain by selling the con-
tents of the store at reduced rates. He did
this ;Or two days, when he was arrested, but

Mr.. Layton discovered that % Hungar-

was asked if he WAS going for his family or
if he would return again, to which he re-
piled: "Oh, no. Me no come back. I
hava six hundred dolla. Me stay in Hun

men brought out the information that they
were taking with them an average of over

CUMSHAW TEA.

We have been selling this tea for
the last two years, and it has earned
for itself a reputation equaled by
no other tea on the market.
The word "Cumshaw" is of
Chinese origin, and signifies a gift.
1t certainly is a gift of no small
proportions to the public to furnish
them a tea of such excellence as
the "Cumshaw Tea" at such mod
crate cost as 34c per lb.
The secret in arranging a bouquet
of flowers is to get such a comming-
ling of the different perfumes as to
make the whole one mass of fra
GRANGE.
So with tea. Each separate
variety has its different flavor, and
the true scent of success consists of
so blending their favors as to pro-
duce drink in richness far supe-
rior to any of it's different parts.
This skillful blending is the secret
of the success of Cumshaw Tea,
and we can guarantee there is no
tea on the market to-day at 75c or
81 per pound which surpasses Cum
shaw Tea in richness of flavor or
quality of draw.
