JUST COMMON FOLKS.

A hundred humble songsters trill

Inc place with the transcendant song,

soul with lasting greatness cloaks
ana leaves thousand else the while
TO be for aye just common folks.

HOW we should miss the minor chimes:
Ii only grandest poet sung,

The modest clinging vines add grace
Unto the forests giant oaks
ana MD earth's mighty is a place
10 people with just common folks
Not there the warriors who shall win
upon the battlefield name

Now theirs the painters deathless fame,
The rhythmic gilt his soul invokes;
nelrs but to do the simple things
mat duty gives just common folks.
Ihey are the multitudes of earth
ANA mlnSle ever in the crowd,
E!DoWlng those of equal birth,
where none because OF cast is proud,
Bound by the meshes of fate
That sometimes decree reyokes:
Above the lowly, meath the great,
Are millions of just common folks.
Fate has not lifted them above
The level OF the human plane:
They share with men a brother love,
IN touch with pleasure and with pain,
one great, far-reaching brotherhood,
With common burdens, common yokes
ana common wrongs and common good,
COO army OF just common folks.

There Was Good Reason.

Every day one hears some remark
made in all innocence, which is SO re-
treshing that it almost takes the breath
away. The small boy, to whose sister
some gallant youth is paying attentions,
is often the cause of dire trouble, and
many family secret is let out through
his inclination to talk. The other day |
heard the most exquisite hit that it has
been my pleasure to hear in many a
day, says the LOCKER On" in the San
Francisco News Letter.
There was dinner that night at the
house Of prominent Italian attorney
who lives in the neighborhood Of J )nes
and Washington streets. The dinner
hour wrs set for O'Clock, AID little
before that time all of the guests had
arrived. Eight o'clock came, and then
quarter past, but no announcement OF
the dinner being ready; then the clock
struck the half-hour, with no better sue
cess. Things were beginning to look Sc
, rlous and questioning chances were cast
by those present.
The hostess seemed as much dis
turbed as anybody, and often looked
inquiringly at her daughter, who fitted
lady begged to be excused for the de
lay, as, che said, Mr.. S. had not come
home yet. and they were waiting for
him. Quarter of 9 came. then 8. and
still no Mr.. S. The guests were almost
starving by this time, and the hostess
was getting very angry, when suddenly
one door opened and in walked Mr.. S.
fully dressed for dinner, which at the
same time was announced by the ser.
want.
The host made the most elaborate
apologies for his absence, and explained
that an important case had caused the
delay. Of course the guests were very
glad of his arrival, and sat down to such
delicious repast that it made up fully
for the hunger they had suffered. II
was after II when they left the table
and many were the compliments show
cred on the entertainer for such de.
lighttul evening.
One of the gentlemen remarked 6
little later to one of the hostess boys
that his father kept the party waiting
pretty long.
"Y es," said the boy, she was cooking
the dinner"

Il once had an adventure in New
Mexico that made q terrific draft on my

miles out, and when [ had covered

mountain lion came siding up to me.

the fiction grinders say, my feelings can
be better imagined than described.
When a few feet distant he stopped and
looked me over, and [ thought he was
trying to make up his mind what por-
ton he preferred tor breakfast.

human eye, and proceeded to put on
my most tragic frown and to stare at
him fxedly. This SO overcame him
that he sat down on his launches and
Datted his eyes laziIv. [ continued to

limbs and purr. There was not tree
or house Tor the entire distance, and
the brute stuck to me like a cookie burr
to Merino sheep. When l raped at
the door he sat down and made his
toilet by rubbing his big paws over his
face. When my friend opened the door
/ found that had inadvertently
dropped my voice along the road some

The Fools Are Not AL Dead.

A novel wager on the result of the
coming election was made in st. Angus
tine, Fla, a few days ago. The parties
to the agreement are an ex-mayor and
a real estate agent. In case Of Cleye-
lands election the ex-mayor is to push
the real estate agent in a wheelbarrow
on the sea wall from the fort to central
basin, and in case of Harrlson's election
the real estate agent is to do likewise
to the ex-mavor. The date OF the per-
torrance will be fixed SO as to allow the
throngs ofvisitors next winter to witness
it. The two gentlemen are to be attach
ed by d rope, SO that III case OF a mishap
if one goes over the wall the other must
follow.

Bismarck and the Doctor.

Bismarck's belligerent attitude to-
ward Emperor William is bringing out
many stories illustrating the peculiar
temperamento of the ex-chancellor. The
New York Sun says that the Prince, &C.
customed to bulldoze rybody, met
with more than his match when he
came in contact with the famous DIR.
Schweninger. The man of blood and
iron was suffering from neuralgia, and
was in an extremely bad humor. The
Doctor was not the least put out by the
Princes savage look. He sounded him
thoroughly, and then began to question
him.
After q few moments of examination,
the Prince became impatient. CHOW,
Pm tired of your interminable ques-
TONS" he said. II don't see the utility
of them, and you are simply annoying
me-" The Doctor, who is made of in
fammable material, became ignited by
the sparks of Bismarck's angry eyes.
"You find that | am annoying you y
he said. "You want to be cured with
out being obliged to answer questions.
Why the devil, then, didn't you call IN
veterinary surgeon? The vets cure
their patients without asking them any
questions" Bismarck bounded to his
feet, clenched his fists and glared in
rage and establishment at the man OF
science The Doctor folded his arms
and looked defantly at the Prince, until
the latter resumed his seat and said:
Every well, If you can't cure me with
out Questioning me 60 ahead with your
Internal examination. III be very for
tunate indeed if your medical skill
proves equal to your impertinence. OF
the latter you have just given me 6
plaDdid Spaciman -
The Prince was cured, and he ana the
Doctor are fast friends now. They re-
semble each other in character and dis
position.

trative court, for the purpose of con-
Quoting the investigation. The inquiry,
which was conducted with closed doors,
has resulted in the court pronouncing
the defendants to be beyond the reach
of prosecution.
AS an instance of the extraordinary
excitement caused by the whole affair,
it may be mentioned that the recent
resignation by Viscount Tanaka, Of the
ministry of justice, was rumored to be
in consequence Of the ex-minister con-
sidering the occurrence of such scan
dalous incident during his tenure of the
portfolio of Justice too disgraceful to be
consistent with mis- remaining in office.

Col. White in New York.

the speech delivered by Col. White in
that city: "Hon. Robert White, Of
Wheeling. West Virginia, who addressed
the Democratic Club at Arena, Satur-
day evening, October Is, met with a
very flattering reception. A torchlight
procession with great many voters In
line, headed by the Andes COrnet Band,
was one of the features Of the evening.
Long before the hour for meeting,
Fletcher Hall was crowded to overflow
ing with an enthusiastic audience OF
Tariff Reformers. Mr.. White spoke for
two hours, held the closest attention Of
his hearers and elected repeated
applause by his sound and unim-
peachable arguments. He handled the
tariff question in a mastery manner,
demonstrating clearly that the Demo-
cratic position is the correct one and
that protection as presented by the Nc
Kinley bill is = great detriment to the
masses and especially for the laboring
man, and is only calculated to benefit
the few at the expense OF the many.
The speaker gave a graphic description
of the iniquities Of the force bill and
presented other lines of thought that
created very favorable impression, and
will be food for reflection for his Re-
publican hearers for some time to come.
Hon. Mr.. White left Arena for Nor

Wood field OIL Field.

The Norris No. 2, on the G.. G. Nor
ris farm, two miles southeast OF Woods
field, Ohio, is still proving to be a bet
ter well than was anticipated by the
operators a few days ago, and is now
estimated at any place from 80 TO $50
barrels per day. The well has been
flowing at intervals for several days,
being about /, 500 feet deep and almost
full OF oil all the time, the gas not be-
ing strong enough to make a continu-
Gus flow OF oil. There is more than
sufficient gas to utilize for fuel. The
company has not yet ordered tankage
but will do so at once. Mysteries In
this field are things Of the past, and
those who have interested themselves
as TO this well are satisfied that it Is a
good producer, and to further demon
strate the fact, outside parties interest
ed In leases In the neighborhood of this
well, whose names are unknown TO the
writer, have commenced a well about
three-quarters of a mile southwest of
this we'll. Considerable excitement
prevails in this vicinity on account of
the new discovery, there now being
parties here trying to get leases near
the well.
