Wire in His Stomach.

A singular accident happened to
small boy some time ago at Gala
basas, Cal. Emmett Branscombe,
aged 7 years. The boy was play
ing with piece Of baling wire, and
wound some around his finger
three times. He shipped it off
with a pair of pincers and twisted
it close around the finger. Then
he pulled the twisted wire of with
his teeth. It pumped into his
mouth, and in some way he swal-
lowed it. He began to cough, and
tried to get the lump Of wire out,
but in vain. It stuck fast in his
throat.
The boys father was called, and
vainly endeavored to extract the
substance which was choaking his
son to death. He was thirty miles
from physician, and no applian-
ces to remove the obstruction were
at hand At last he became con-
vinced that if something was not
done the boy would die in few
minutes. He summoned up all
his courage and pushed the wire
coil down the throat into the stom-
ache. 1t gave instant relief. but
now the question how to get it out
of the stomach, and Mr.. Brons-
combe started at snce for Los An
geles with his son. Los Angeles

Wrecked in MidOcean.

The bark Arethusa arrived at
Newcastle, New South Wales, OF,
July -, with the shipwrecked crew
of the bark africa on board and
cleared up an ocean my stery.
Thousands of cans of kerosene were
recently found floating in the Int:i-
an ocean, and they were supposed
to be wreckage Of an Australians
bound ship from America. They
proved to be the cargo Of the bark
Arcia which sailed with coal oil
from New York for Annoy. She
was dismasted and waterlogged in
hurricane on June 8, and for five
days those on the vessel, including
Mrs. Beverid dge, wife of the captain,
underwent great privations. A cask
containing fresh water was washed
overheard, together with the whole
of the provisions, the only food OBJ
tainable being some timed meats
The main tank became contami-
mated with salt water, leaving only
a small cask of fresh water for
drinking purposes. This was serv-
ed out i'll teacupfuls to each person
per day On the 9th of June the
Arethusa sighted the wreck, and
bore down and rescued those on
board, fifteen all told.
Myer, Skelly and Sullivan were
put to sleep in the order named at

A Ride with Senator Walcott.

A Ride with Senator WalcOtt.
Upon an occasion some years
ago friend took Senator Wal
colt for drive in the suburbs
of Leadville and Walcott expressed
a suspicion that the horses were
perhaps too friskey to be trust
worthy. Thereupon the friend
set about bantering and badgering
Walcott upon his excessive timid-
ity. Walcott bore this badinage
patiently, till presently they Ee-
gan to descend one Of those steep,
almost precipitous inclines in which
Colorado roads abound.
"Will you let me driver" asked
Walcottt.
"Certainly," answered the other.
But no sooner had Walcott got
the rains than he turned to his
companion and said: you have
been shaming me for my tinridity.
My turn has come. Well see who
squeals first!'
With that he flung the rains out
over the horses backs and began
plying the whip furiously. The
frightened horses dashed down the
hill, swinging the buggy around
curves and against boulders in such
wise as to threaten its demolition.
Nalcott continued to ply the whip
md to shout at the maddened
orutes. His friend clung, white
md trembling, to his seat. 1t is
marvel that both were not killed.
7nally the buggy was overturned,
he horses broke away and Walcott
ind his friend were left in a con-
used heap, with a broken arm,
prained ankle and dozen body
;uts and bruises between them.
"Well how do you like it?" asked
gathering himself together
nd emerging nimb]y from the
[ebris.
The other answered feebly but
Il hain't squealed yet !"-

AS TO PROTECTION.

-Repubhcan campalgners and republl-
can newspapers are now busily engaged
in showing the evils of direct taxation as
means for supplying tue necessary rev.
enue for carrying on the government.
This is absolute free trade, something
to which the democratic party IS not COM
mltted. 1t draws a distinction between
that free trade which insists upon direct
taxation for governmental purposes as
well as for individual states, and the free
trade which excerpts from the tariff laid
for the necessary expenses of government
any advantage to individual interests
Protection means tax levied on imports
ment, with view to enabling manufac-
turers in this country TO increase their
profits at the expense of the public. The
democratic platform asks for the elimina-
ton of this feature and that the tariff
shall be adjusted to the needs of the gov
eminent. If people generally would give
attention to the line of cleavage separat-
ing the parties and make this basis for
arguments in detail, there would be no
difficulty In understanding the situation
fully and no danger in being misled by
specious arguments.
The Pilot wants to mIslead no one as
TO its ideal type of form of government.
1t can conceive of no form superior to
that which derives its support directly
from the people. When they voluntarily
tax themselves to maintain government
1t Is evidence of intelligent patriotism on
their part and guaranty that the gov
eminent shall live. To secure by indir-
ectlon what should come voluntarily IS to
confess dlstrust of the people and to offer
a criticism on their intelligence State.
county, town and district taxes are direct.
Why should not the national taxes be?
Does any person suppose that the daily
expenditure of the government of the
United States would amount to one-hun
dred million dollars per day-and that is
what 1t is In round numbers-if taxes
were collected directly? The indirect
method begets responsibility on the
part of those who represent the people.
The encrrIous tax of one million dollars
per day Is collected in disguise and
those who perpetrate the robbery claim
that their crime is blessing to the peo-
pie robbed.
How long would pension roll of one
hundred and thirty five million dollars
per year continue il the people should
learn through direct methods of taxation
that they are paying this amount? But
the bugaboo of free trade is used to stiflle !
all Inquiries regarding the extravagent |
expenditure of the peoples money, col |

excess of the needs of the government, |
The Pilot is free trade paper, though it |
doubts that free trade will ever prevail in
this country because people will never
look at public questions with unpreju- |
diced and bipartisan eyes.
The position of the democratic party /
is to collect by indirect methods: namely.
a tariff on imported goods and tax paid
Indirectly by the consumer on certain
articles of manufacture such as whis-
key and tobacco, sum sufficient to meet
the needs of the government. No special

THE Union depot at Milwaukee was
the scene OF a frightful accident on Sun
day last Two sections of an excursion
train from Chicago arrived at the depot
about Is minutes apart. The first sec
ton was about to pull out for Oconomo-
voc when the second dashed into it.
Fortunately the two rear cars and the
parlor car of the Oconomowoc train had
no passengers in them. The parlor car
crashed through the two coaches IN adj
vance and had they been occupied every
one in them would certainly have been
killed
The fatalities and injuries took place
on the cars of the moving train. The
coach Immediately behind the tender was
crushed to a distance covered by three
seats. A number were standing on the
platform and these were horribly man
gled. Only those on the platform and
In the first three rows of seats were in
jured. One person injured, and died
short time after,a second the night follow
ing. Nine persons in all were injured.
The responsibility lies between the
switchman and the assistant station
master. Each tries to cast the blame on
the other.

A WEEK ago last Sunday Edward and
Anton Reiss, two young men, cousins,
left Sheboygan with sail boat to make
a trip to Centerville. They failed to re-
turn and nothing of their fate was learn
ed until Thursday of last week. The
captain Of the Sweetheart, brought with
him a coat and a rudder which he had
picked up 10 the lake about midway be-
tween Two Rivers Point ard Two Rivers.
The two articles were about one-quarter
of mile apart. The coat was buoyed up
by the air which remained between it and
the water. A letter was found in one of
the pockets addressed to E. Reiss. This
removes all doubt of the fate of the young
men.

The thunder storm of Thursday last
worked considerable damage to growing
crops throughout the county. The
lightning struck some buildings and did
considerable damage The church on
the town line road between Newton and
Centerville, lrreverently. known as the
rooster church because rooster sur
mounts its steeple, was struck and the
steeple was badly shattered.
Stephen Hulltz of Gibson was struck
by lightning the same day. The shock
he received was only light one but his
watch was melted. He was so badly
frightened that he took to running and
neighbors say he ran three miles before
he came to halt.
