1t is given out that combination has
been made between the democrats and
alliance of Kansas On the following basis:
The democrats will support the peoples
electoral ticket and give them the entire
state ticket with the exception Of the as
eociated Justice. The democrats will also
endorse the peoples congressional nomi-
nees in the five districts now represented
by alliance congressman, and the peoples
party will endorse the democratic nomi-
nees in the first and second districts, now
represented by republicans and give the
democrats the congressman at large. We
hone that combination will stand, for
thousands of democrats will repudiate it
at the polls, and the republican members
of the alliance, those who have been con-
.sistent and honest members, and who did
not join for the purpose OF betraylng
their party into the hands of the demo-
Gratis. will come back into the fold where
they belong. They can't afford to betray
their old party and absolutely destroy the
alliance, which it will do, for mere
temporary advantage and even that is ex-
tremely doubtful to say the least.

Pay OF Railroaders.

Many railroaders in this country
think they are poorly paid for their
services, but If. they had to struggle
along on the beggarly sums that are
paid railroaders in Germany they would
have reason to complain. The official re-
port of the salaries of German railroaders
gives the best possible basis for COM
parison of wages in that country and
this. The highest paid men, of course, are
the presidents, who get $4,000 year.
Then there is long jump down to tel
egraph inspectors, of whom there are
but eighteen in the empire. They get
from $3.50 to $1,000 a year. Bookkeep-
ers and secretaries get from $500 to
5000; ticket agents and clerks, from
$3.50 to 1915; conductors, from 5000 to
$500; engineers, from $500 to $500; fire
men, from $3.50 to $500, and brakemen,
from 5000 to $500. As these men must
live on food that costs the price in
America plus the cost of transportation
to Germany, must largely clothe them
selves in cotton raised in this country,
must light their homes with American
kerosene and live in houses frequently
fitted with American wood and use fur
niture made from American lumber, it
looks as if the only way that they live
much cheaper than an American rail-
roader is by not living so well. As their
wages do lot average more than one
half those in America they would seem
to have pretty tough time of it.

In the present day and generation
there is constantly recurring evidence
OF the truth of the saying: "There
is nothing new under the sum-" An
English manufacturer while ex-
aiming the texture and quality of
some bandages found on mummy was
astonished to find that the arrangement
of the threads was exactly like that
which he had patented a few months
before and which he had supposed to be
an independent invention of his own.

help their cause. The proposal is to

Adolph Zemeri, who died April Q, in
the district of Guizot, France, was in
possession of documentary evidence
which proved that he was born In 1742.
When old Zemeri first saw the light Of
day Washington was q lad Of but 10
tender years. Wellington was not born
until twenty-seven years later and Wa
terloo was seventy-three years in the
future. Zemeri's allotment of years ex-
ceeded those Of all men Of recent times
except Henry Jenkins and "Old Parr,"
two English WORTHLESS, the former of
whom lived to be 1859 years old and the
the latter 152. If each Of "Old" Ze-
merits ancestors had equaled him in
point of longevity and each had come
into the world at the precise moment
his immediate predecessor left it, the
thirteenth one might have been present

Bebe Ribbon as q Trimming.

Bebe ribbon Is a much-used variety OF
the many widths of ribbon SO greatly
and SO variously employed for trimming
dresses, bonnets, parasols, etc., to saw
nothing of the decoration Of fancy
work, where ribbon Of this sort figures
conspicuously. Bebe ribbon trims ad-
mirably evening gowns Of soft silk and
combines well with lace, enhancing the
light effect Of that particular decora-
ton. Sheer woods are also suitably
trimmed with narrow silk or velvet rib
bon. which is put on in straight rows
or made up in series of loops more or
less long, or In tufts or pompons. and
when these are placed in juxtaposition
on gown, to hold lace in place, they
are frequently connected by two or
three strands Of the same ribbon.
