SPEAKING BY THE CARD.

The following melange of reportoriaI jotting and editorial prediction is taken from the Graham county Bulletin:
 Judge Moormsn was called 60 Clifton last week to prosecute a man by the name of Lemon for illegally registering and voting. He was bound over to the grand jury on waiving an examination but the Bulletin predicts that he never will be convicted.
 And why will he not be convicted ? The case is very clear one and there seems to be no doubt of the most fla. grant violation of the election laws. Henry Lemon, the person to whom reference is made, was not legal voter at the last election he declared himself to be one and voted the vote was chal- lenged. His prosecution followed and sufficient evidence was obtained to prove that he had illegally voted and he was held to the grand jury. Ono of his bondsmen is Charles Nj. shannon, the successful Democratic candidate for the council from that county. The newly elected district attorney, upon whom vii! devolve the further prosecution of the case, is also Democrat. Under the circumstances we are inclined to be- lieve that the BulIstis is right and that Lemon will not be convicted. Yet we would be pleased to learn what infor- nation the Bulletin is in possession of by which it is enabled to pre-judge the action of the court in this case.

Boyesen Is that these immigrants send back to the ancestral countries for preachers and school teachers, and keep up the old language and old notions. It is a great misfortune, for these bunker Lutheran preachers and schoolmasters are full of prejudices against American life and manners, and have no adequate knowledge of the kind of instruction young American citizens ought to re- ceive.
 Our total Scandinavian population, in- cluding Danes, Swedes and Norwegians, numbers 1,s00,000. They are learning Yankee politics rapidly too. The pres ent congress contains four representa- tives of this race, while Hon. Knute Nelson, the newly elected governor of Minnesota, is Norwegian.

CURRENT MMENT.

A paper commenting on the ceIebra- tion of the fiftieth anniversary of Dr. Edward Everett Hale's accession to the ministry speaks of him as the ''vener- able Dr. Hale" Now nobody who knows Dr. Hale would think of calling him a venerable" any more than he would call Oliver Wendell Holmes venerable. The fact is these two distinguished men are the veriest old boys, as lively and frisky as sixteen still. It is true that Dr. Hale is seventy years old and Dr. Holmes is eighty-three. But "vcn- erable?" Oh, no; neither of them.

A WESTERN Kansas mortgage com pany has made arrangements to farm 100000 acres of Kansas land, and if the experiments of other companies last year are to set the mark for this year the company will make a net profit al- most eqnal to the price paid for the land. This shows much better spirit on the part of the mortgage companies than if they sat back in their offices and abused the people for electing a set of officers distasteinl to them. Most of the calamity" cry about Kan sas has come from the men who have the most at stake in standing up for the people of the state, whatever they

 ed boys. Life is an interrogation point. What is it for?" we con- tinually cry from the cradle to the grave. So with this little introduc- tory sermon we turn and ask: What is AUGUST FLOWER FOR }" As easily answered as asked: It is for Dys- pepsia. It is a special remedy for the Stomach and Liver. Nothing more than this; but this brimful. We believe August Flower cures Dyspepsia. We know it will. We have reasons for knowing it. Twenty years ago it started in a small country town. To-day it has an honored place in every city and country store, possesses one of the largest manu- featuring plants in the country and sells everywhere. Why is this2 The reason is as simple as a child's thought. It is honest, does one thing, and does it right along-it cures Dyspepsia. s G. G. GREEN, Sole Man'fr, WoOdbuy,NJ,

It might almost be said of the late Duke of Marlborough that nothing in his life became him like the leaving it. He had the justice to get his life insured for $l, ,000, ,000 a year or two before he died, in order to at least partially reim- purse his American wife for the sum she spent on Blenheim castle. This insur- ance she now gets. When she began her repairs on Blenheim house she mort gagged some of her American property for half million in order to get ready money. Marlborough also purchased with his wife's money the pictures, tap estry and bric-a-brac for Blenheim in his American wife's name. She can now therefore claim them and take them out of the rehabilitated castle.

We learn various facts of interest from Professor Boyesen's paper in The North American Review discussing the Scandinavian element in the United States. One is that the citizens from Norway and Sweden always vote the Republican ticket and will continue to do so till time shall be no more. If, in view of certain recent affiicting dispen- sations, this fact will be any satisfac- tion to the Republican party, we gladly give prominence to it. The reason as- signed for it by Professor Boyesen is, however, odd. It is not because Swedes and Norsemen love the Republicans so much as because they hate the Irish. There is, Professor Boyesen tells us, an irreconcilable feud between Irish and Scandinavian so great that if the i'm possible should happen and the Irish under any circumstances vote the Re publican ticket, then the Scandinavians would immediately jump the fence and go Democratic. This is unfortunate if true to the extent the writer says.
 Scandinavians are strong, slow, sturdy and manly, with the courage, endurance and love of freedom their ancestors drew in with the wild sea air still abiding in their souls. They save money and thrive, and adapt themselves easily to Amer ican institutions. Their worst vice is drunkenness, which probably they also inherited with the old Viking blood in their veins. But it is cheerful to know they are not so bad in this respect in the United States as they were in the old country, and that the temperance move ment is at present making rapid progress among our Swedes and Norsemen in the northwest.

W. T. Stead has been making notable experiment.. He secured photographs of Mir. Gladstone and the sixteen members of the new Liberal cabinet. Then he divided the sixteen officers into four groups, according to their facial char acteristics. The four whose type of face was somewhat the same were photographed one upon another. Each group had its head man, in whom the type of features was most marked. There are four clean shaven members of the cabinet. These Mir. Stead put together, with Lord Rosebery at their head. The four men with the largest heads constituted another group Last of all the four groups were photo graphed one upon another, and Mir. Gladstone's picture taken on top of them all.
 It is of interest to observe whose fea- lures are most strongly stamped upon each group. Whether this is any sign that the man whose likeness is most prominent has the strongest character perhaps not even Lavater could tell. In the beardless mems group Lord Rose bery's face is most prominent Sir William Vernon Harcourt cannot be made out at all, but Mir. Bryce, the friend of America, comes out plainly in his group.
 Truth compels the outsider to say that in the composite photograph, which is the final result of all, the differences of collar, coat and necktie can be much more plainly made out than differences in the intellectual physiognomies of the great men who compose the British cab inet Even Mir. Gladstone, though photographed last on the top of all the rest is not distinctly to be traced. As to the final result, Mir. Stead puts it thus: "'The predominating note of the type which has been thus evolved is that of a benevolent and thoughtful gentleman of about sixty"
