WRITING MACHINE.

Years ago Mrs. Yost, built type
writer, the Remington No. 2 and
Caligraph which were good enough
then. But the family has increased
by thousands. Other folks have
hitehed on extensions to hold 'em.
But it's the same old typewriter,
same ribbon, same scales, same
rickety print. We want something
modern, and we get it in the NEW
YosT, which rises superior to the
difficulties of any ribbon machine.
The ribbon blurs print, wears full
of holes, clogs type, takes power to
pull it along, weakens manifolding
and costs So or SO a year. Our
ink pads outlasts twenty ribbons.
Can be changed in ten seconds, and
costs less than 50 a year. And as
to permanent alignment the YosT
is the only machine which accom-
plishes this much desired feat.

THE WAR IN DAHOMEY.
British Accused of Furnishing
: Z the Natives with Rifles.

~ INC Naii'eS Win Ni"oS'
Many accusations have been
made that the German agents in
Dahomey have furnished King Be-
hanzin with quick-fring rifles, but
these have been denied by Ger
mans, who assert that if King Be-
hanzin had such weapons he had
procured them from the British.
These latter assertions have been
borne out by a capture that has
just been made off the coast of Da-
honey. The Brandon, a French
dispatch boat, cruising off the Da-
homeyan coast, surprised the Brit
ish steamer John Holly with a
cargo of Winchester rifles and am
munition, which were, beyond all
doubt, intended for the Dahomeyan
army. The vessel was seized and
her cargo was confscated. The
matter will undoubtedly be made
the subject Of diplomatic remon-
STRANGE.
General Dodds, commanding the
French expedition, has telegraphed
the details of the fighting that pre-
ceded the capture of Cana. On
November 4th the village of Diox-
vue, in which the King has large
palace, was carried by assault. The
Dahomeyans fought desperately.
They were commanded by the
King in person, and any show
of cowardice was punished by
instant death. In this fight
the French lost six killed and
forty-fve wounded. This loss
was sustained chiefly through the
French falling into an ambush laid
for them by the natives. Eighteen
Europeans were wounded by those
in the ambuscade. Gen. Dodds
commends in high terms the BRAY
cry and dash of his troops. On
Nov. 5 the French bivouacked I'm.
der the walls of Cana. On the 9th
while preparing to assault the
town, they found that it had been
evacuated and they took posses
sion.
A letter from Port Novo, describ
ing the campaign in Dahomey
says that the surprise of the French
at Dogba was due to treachery or
the part of the black scouts, who
were subsequently shot. A rio
was narrowly averted by the cour
age of Col. Dodds and Capt. Rou
liant in advancing to the front o
the French lines amid a perfec
storm of bullets from Dahomeyan
lying in ambush.
In this dangerous position Capt
Roulant coolly lighted cigar, in
spring the men to renewed efforts
while Col. Dodds promised to re
ward them for every black MAJ
captured.
In the battle of Pognesa tn
French captured three German
and a Belgian, who were servin
, as officers of the Dahomeyan troops
These prisoners were afterwar
tried by court-martial and shot.

TEMPTING SCHEM F!
The Question of Christmas
and Unexpected Way.

In the United States the
friends of free silver made
brave fight at the last election;
they demand that the govern
ment should coin silver in the
minis, and make it a legal ten
der for the amounts. This
demand Of the silver men was
taken up by either Of the two
great parties, and it is not
likely that the United States
will ever adopt a double
standard. But down in Ha-
wall things are different.
There is a scheme on foot to
furnish free silver for general
use. In these hard times, this
will be welcome news, indeed,
and doubtless a large number
will avail themselves of the
opportunity.

opportunity.
WHAT 1T MEANS ?
Possibly the reader is be-
coming impatient and wants to
know what it is all about, any
way. 1t seems that one Of our
retail merchants secured a
large invoice of silver goods;
as he is not in the jewelry bus
mess, but is only interested in
dry goods, he concluded to
give his customers the benefit
of his stock Of silver. To be
plain, he proposes to furnish
Christmas presents in novel
way that should be very tax
ing. Those who purchase goods
to the amount of $3.50 are
entitled to a present of some
article of silverware. For cash
$3.50 expended, a present can
be had without further cost.
MORE INDUCEMENTS.
AS a further concession to
hard times, the whole stock of
dry goods is being sold at a
sensible reduction from usual
rates. Everything is to go,
and to go without reserve.
With the low price, and the
silver inducement, it is natural
to suppose that business would
be brisk, and so it is at Fishel's.

had are mems all wool Suits

that would place him IN "A position inferior TO
That OF his adversary. When all the prelimi-
