The Disappointed Justice Says He VIII Sue
for Breach of Contract.
Kansas City Times.J
Justice Nichols, of Independence, is
threatening to sue couple who promised
to be welded in his court for damages, be-
cause they were married in Justice Prev
ett's court. He claims it was breach Of
contract.
On Tuesday night, so Justice Nichols
says, he was approached by a. gentleman
who contracted for his services at mar
riage to take place yesterday afternoon.
The time drew near and the Justice sat
prim and neat waiting in his Office for the
coming of the couple. He had filled the
application and had it ready for the sigma
ture of the prospective groom. The ap-
pointed time came and passed, but the
couple that he waited for never came.
Meantime, in the Office of Justice Prewett,
the couple were quietly married. They
received their certificate and happily re-
turned home. The Justice was still waiting
e1pectant when informed that the couple
had already been married and had returned
home. He declared his intention of bring
ing suit against the groom for damages and
breach of contract
The Justice is emphatic in his determine
tion and says he will make it test case.

Old lady Ito applicant for cook):

Applicant: "Oh, yes, ma'am; 1

Old lady: "Oh, we have only the
very plainest, my husband is a dys-
peptic."
Applicant: "Then he should do
as my former master, take one vine
glass full of Johan Hohf's Malt Ex-
tract with each meal, and be cured" "
This girl was well posted.
As large number of dyspeptics
lack the necessary power to digest
solid foods, and as stimulants merely
excite and weaken the stomach, there
fore the immense value of the genu-
inc Johann Hoff's Malt Extract as
nutritious tonic cannot be over-esti-
mated. 1t not only acts as a tonic,
but as nutrient as well, and the most
stubborn case of dyspepsia cannot
withstand its wonderful power. Write
to Eisner & Mendelson Co., 6 Bar
clay street, New York, for descrip-
tive pamphlet. Look out for imita-
tions. They are dangerous. All
druggists keep the genuine, which
must have the signature of "Johann
Hoff" on the neck of every bottle.

He Thinks the Fight in 1892 VIII Be Over
the Old Ground.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-[Special. Sec
retaryFoster, who is again at his desk at
at the Treasury Department, does not think
the silver question had much to do with the
result of the election in Ohio. In an inter-
view to-day he said: 'I do not believe the
silver question Influenced 500 votes, though
am sure that had that been kept as the is
sue the Democrats would have lost on it. I
do not think Democratic convention in
Ohio would ever again adopt free coinage
platform, but that had practically nothing
to do with this fight. 1 think the result of
the elections show that the West can be re-
lied on to vote for the Republican party,
and that the contest in 1892 will be in New
York, Indiana, New Jersey and Connecti-
cut, as formerly. We shall fight over the
same old ground, with the tariff as the
issue"
"Do you think the result of these cleo
tions will have influence on the choice of
Presidential candidates."
stNot on the choice of the Republican can
didate, but think it will make Cleveland
the Democratic nominee"
The Secretary expects an active fight for
the Senatorship to be made by both Sher-
man and Foraker, and he will not hazard
any predictions as to what the outcome
will be.

HARRIsON'S NEW CABINET,
The President Still Refuses to Tell OF What
1t Will Be Made

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81 Especial Now
that the elections are out of the way, dis
cussion has been resumed in Washington as
to the appointments the President has at
his disposal Some time ago the idea got
abroad that he would make all these appoint
ments soon after election day, but it
is now believed he will delay most of them
at least until the meeting of Congress Re-
ports that Stephen B. Elkins is to succeed
Proctor as Secretary of War are still cir
culated and receive considerable credence,
though close friends of the President, to
whom he would naturally speak of the mat
ter, do not believe he will be selected. 1t
Is probable that the appointment will be
given 20 the New England States, and ex-
Governor Cheney is still regarded as the
most likely selection..
1t is said that the President has virtually
decided upon number of the Circuit
Judges. In making his selections for these
Judicial appointments he has relied largely
upon the advice of Justice Harlan, of the
Supreme Court, to whom he referred all ap-
pllcations and recommendations Justice
Harlan went through the papers carefully,
and: aided by his personal knowledge of
most of the applicants, indorsed on the
papers o. each candidate his idea of the

THE COLOR OF SNAKES.
Evidence to shoV That 1t Varies With the
Color of His Surroundings

Evidence to SHOW That 1t Varies With the
Color of His Surroundings
A paper recently published an interest
ing article on ''The Color of Snakes as
AFFECTED by Climatic Influences. From
observations made it would seem that the
color of these reptiles will always partake
more or less of the natural tints around
them. Thus, when the soil is of a reddish
color, the diamond rattlesnake is reddish in
his markings, and of far lighter hue gen.
orally than the snake found in the dark
woods of Demerara.
The puff adder gives us another example
of colors coinciding with local tints, for
when this deadly creature finds its home
upon the lower lands near the sea, it is pale
and dirty looking. Not so, however, when
it comes from the higher ground, among
more brilliant surroundings, for here he ap

which can be conceived The pattern upon
the skin of each species seems to. be pre-
served, and it is the coloring only which
varies with locality.

COMFORT IN DEFEAT.
FASSETr PLEASED TO SEE HIS PARTY
AGAIN UNITED.

He Attributes His Defeat to the Lib
eral Use of Money by Tammany-An
Emphatic Expression in Favor of the
Tiger.
New YORK, Nov. 5.-[Special 1.-The de-
feated Gubernatorial candidate, Jacob Sloat
Fassett, has written the following letter:
II the campaign were to be gone over
again see no place where the management
could have been improved. The reception
extended to Mr.. Vrooman and myself in all
parts of the State, and the loyal devo-
t1ons of our party press and our
personal and party friends, were
all of such nature as to leave
nothing more to be desired. The issues fairly
In this canvass were presented to the people
fully by the Republicans. The Democrats
lodged every issue but one, and that the
Democratic managers understood to be the
most essential of all, to wit: The issue OF
money. The advices from all parts of the
state show the use OF unlimited amounts amour sol o.
present ballot law renders more easy and
certain than ever before.
So far as the verdict goes, it is an enl-
phatic expression in favor of Tammany
Hall. 1t is, of course, idle to say that the
verdict was obtained by the most shameless
of Tammany methods. The fact remains
that Tammany, no matter by what methods.
now remains to be seen to what use she will
put her power. We shall see if, in the
throes of victory, the tiger has lost its
stripes.
So far as next year is concerned, 1 think
Mr.. Hewitt is about right. The result has
less bearing upon national issues than upon
the vastly Agreater issues Of munich.
pal and State Government. 1 say city and
State issues are greater, solely for the rea-
son that their administration touches SO
much more intimately the daily life and af-
fairs of each citizen. Next year will take
care of the issues of next year.
The Ohio election was made to turn ex-
clnsively upon national issues, and the
splendid revolution brought about there by
Mckinley'S notably brilliant campaign
should fill every Republican heart with
hope even to the point of expectation. One
thing we have done in this campaign,
firmly believe-and if am right, the loss of
this campaign was a small enough price to
pay. believe we have once more a united
and harmonious party. 1 believe the old
jealousies and heartburnings have been
cured, and that in the heat and pressure of
this campaign all the factions Of the party
have been firmly welded together.

A WOMAN WILL DRIVE A NAIL.
1t Will Not Be an Ordinary Nail, but th'
r. Sam

1t Will Not Be an Ordinary Nail, but the
Result May BE the Same.
At the meeting of the lady managers of
the Columbian Exposition at Butte City, it
was voted that the President of the board,
Mrs. Potter Palmer, should drive the last
nail into the women's building. Mrs. j. f.
Richards, Montana's alert and energetic
member of the ladies' board, and wife of
Lieutenant Governor Richards, requested
for Montana the honor of furnishing the
nail, the same to be made of silver from one
of the mi les in the State. A few days ago
she rece we'd reply from Mrs. Palmer ac-
cepting the offer and gracefully thanking
Mrs. Richards for the kindness.
Since then several of her friends have
suggested to Mrs. Rickarks the propriety
of having the nail made of copper, silver
and gold, the three metals that have made
Montana the wealthy State it now is. The
suggestions have been accepted and nail
appropriately shaped and engraved will be
ordered and forwarded to Chicago as soon
as completed, to be used in the manner sug-
gested.
