shall have a fair share of the money,
even if you give it to my rival, your

The lawyer thought that Mr..
Mayo's voice was quite strong for
that of a dying man, but the doctor,
who happened in soon after the will
was made, and the patient seemed
asleep, ascribed it to the effect of ex-

that he was overheard by the patient.
I'm glad that he provided so well
for that noble little wife, He has
had hard struggle with fever these
six weeks, and if anything could have
saved him it would have been her
devoted nursing. I'm certain he did
not deserve it either, for he was one

surprise.

Ladies like to feel they are being
firmly guided in a waltz, but they will
no longer tolerate that hugging process.
which was in vogue, in polite circles
even, up to the beginning of the present
decade. and which exhibition may still
be seen at some of the Saturday night
dances in certain quarters of every large
city. The correct method of holding
ones partner in the waltz would not Of
fend the eye or CRATE upon the senses OF
the most fastidious prude that ever wore
divided skirts. The idea of one holding
the other should not be too strongly en-
tertained. To dance together in sym
pathetic time and motion should be the
dominant thought. The correct mode,
however, is of very great consequence,
as what is seen in this is frequently used
as measure of character.
The gentleman approaches. the lady
Offering his left hand--one who is au
fait will do this gracefully; the lady
places her right hand in that extended
by the gentleman, who then lowers his
right hand in direct line to the side,
the forearm bent so as to form an acute
angle. In this angle the lady will place
herself, with the center line of the per.
son opposite the line of the gentleman's
right side, the partners on parallel lines,
not forming an angle. In this position
each will be looking over the right
shoulder of the other, and by the lady
turning her head slightly to the left the
effect of the grouping will be greatly en-
HANGED. For partners in the waltz men
prefer women who are light, quick and
plant; who do not require to be dragged
about, yet who are not aggressive, but
able to quickly receive guidance.-D~

i4onst, Honk, HOnk!

Another arctic expedition returned
from the north few days ago Its ar
rival was announced by loud ''Honkl
honk!' far up in the sky. Ii was com
posed Of eleven members, and was head
ed by II gray veteran, who led his forces,
arranged in the form of letter V, with
out the Slightest deviation due south.
1t was the wild goose expedition, which,
having summered in the arctic, had
decided to winter in more temperate
climes.
1t is not to be supposed that they rea.
soned the question Of change of loca-
ton among themselves, consulted al
manacs and time tables or even COM
passes to reach their decision or to de-
eide on their course. Their action was
influenced not by what psychologists
know as higher cerebration. AS the
country folks say, they felt it in their
bones that it was time to move south
ward, and south they went under the
wonderful influence of instinct. t.-Balti-

He Wasn't Responsible.

The Detroit EUening Ne,CS of the 10th
inst. states that ex-Gov. Luce spent the
greater part of Friday, the 9th instant,
in that city and appeared to be con-
sderably exercised over the article in
Thursdays Nea0S with reference to the
great swamp-land steal. 1t reports the
Ex-Governor as stating, "My course in
the matter was entirely above criticism.
/ have explained the whole transaction
on the stump. The article in question
failed to make a distinction between
land grants and land patents. The
grants. were signed by governors that
preceded me, while was called upon
to sign some of the patents. These
passed through the hands of the land
commissioner, and the governors sigma
ture is therefore largely perfunctory
matter. was greatly surprised whep
a lawyer came into my office and asked
me what | was doing. He said | was
deciding away land that did not belong
to the state. / stopped signing the
patents then and refused to sign any
more, although the parties interested
threatened to get out a mandamus.
Not only did do this, but cancelled

in Mr.. Sleeper and from that time on
we were enemines,"
1t would be quite interesting if Mr..
Sleeper could be heard from. Very
likely he would turn the tables ~and
state that he had lost confidence in Mr..
Luce. Those who were intimately
acquainted with Henry S. Sleeper (and
his friends were legion) knew him to be
square toed and honorable man whose
word was as good as his bond. He was
an able, Efficient, and conscientious
officer, holding the position of Deputy
Land Commissioner for many years.
He was no trimmer or weak kneed
policy man and lent himself TO no
illegal or doubtful practices in the dis
charge of his official duties, but was a
bold aud fearless man, as Gov. Luce on
more than one occasion discovered.
Mr.. Luce will hardly benefit his
cause by attempting to saddle the
responsibility of his own official acts
upon the shoulders of man whose lips
are closed in death.
1t will be noticed that the governor
did not announce that he also lost con
fidence in Roscoe Dix, late state land
commissioner, a0ho IS dliUe TO defend
himself, and it can be asserted without
fear of contradiction that if Gov. Luce
lost confidence in Henry Sleeper, his
superior officer, Roscoe Dix, did not

Our Next Senator.

1t will be conceded to be the duty of
the legislature, soon to assemble, to
select as our next senator the man
who, all things considered, is best
equipped and fitted to serve the state
and nation in that capacity.
1t begins to look, however, as If mere
personal preferences, dislikes, quarrels
and unsatisfied ambitions are to be
urged with unusual bitterness upon the
members of the Legislature by the friends
aud supporters of some of the gentle
men who thus far have announced
themselves us aspirants for senatorial
nonors, and il is greatly to be feared
that such unholy methods may, to some
extent, affect the result in dishonor of
the state, disruption of party, and dis

must work and perform the duties
incumbent upon him, their peculiarities,
the measures they seek to further and
the interests they represent, can at best
be slowly made or understood.
A new senator has neither the in
fluence with the administration, his
fellow senators, the several departments
of the government, nor the ability to
represent his state, or indeed the nation,
that an experienced senator has.
Why, then, should faithful official
and influential senator, Il safe business
man, patriotic citizen and an active
and consistent Republican be set aside
and disparaged against party precedent
and usage to crafty the impatient ambi-
ton of "a candidate who certainly can
not claim to be better fitted than the
senator who asks of his party, in accord
ance with decent party usage, the en-
dorsement in recognition of his best
efforts which a reelection would stand
for.

who is in favor of fair play, just treat

candidates for appointment to positions
in the state service within the nomina-

gentlemen is thoroughly well equipped

ability the duties of the office to which
he aspires and each of them is, and has
been, consistent Republican, promin-
ent and active in the councils and work
of the party, and faithful in allegiance
to her cause.
This is enough to secure for their
candidacy fair, courteous and favorable
consideration. In addition to all this,
be IL remembered by the powers that are
to be, they are citizens of Van Buren,
county, the banner Republican county
in the state.
In the past this county has not always

that her meritorious record and valuable
services have entitled her to expect
