JERRY'S MORTGAGE.
Prom the Leavenwor,h Times.

FROM tEe Leavenworth lines
Jerry Simpson stated in his speech
here that there is mortgage Of 81, 200
on his farm. Since Jerry has made this
public matter it is proper TO inquire why
this mortgage has not been paid off.
Since March 4. 1891 Uncle Sam has been
paving Jerry s4l6. 66 per month. Up to
date he must have received nearly s., 600
of his salary. Now it does seem that a
plain man of tile people, getting s., 600
sslary 10 nineteen months, might man.
age TO pay 81 200 out Of IL Either Jerry
has been good deal Of spendthrift in
The last two years. or else he has treated
his mortgage as Grover dad the surplus
saved 1t for political purposes.

DIFFERENCE IN MANHOOD
sVALUEH. ...--..-.

The Pittsburg Dispatch makes some
valuable observations on the estimates
of human life, under different condi-
tions. For instance, the United States
will offer the Italian government SgO,-
600 for the relief of the Italian families,
whose husbands and fathers were hung
by the New Orleans mob. At the same
time the United States has filed q 81
0o0000 claim against bankrupt Chill
for beating and kicking score OF OUT
sailors at Valparaiso and the killing OF
one of them. In commenting on this
remarkable contrast, the Dispatch well
Gays:
at cannot be lost sight of that the
difference between this $4,000 and the
claims for S2,000000 flled against Chile
is rather stunning. The $4,000 Is ex-
pecied to balance the killing of eleven
men in New Orleans. Sucha a contrast
suggests that the profit of the proven
bial operation of buying man at the
general estimate of his value and sell
ing him at his own estimate could be
completely cast in the shade by the nj :
tional wealth to be obtained from mob
ing men In cur cities at the New Or
leans valuation and having our sailors
mobbed in foreign ports at the Nalpa-
raiso valuation"

to secure both convenience and beauty. To
me there is a charm about all that relates
to old Colonial days. The architecture OF
our grandfathers was appropriate to their
modes of life and should be perpetuated

In the illustration here given there are
four rooms in the first story, with pantry
and closets; the hall is of good size and
may be used as a sitting room. The spe-
cial feature Of this room is handsome
staircase and pretty mantel. From the
hall you enter the kitchen through a small
vestibule or alcove under the main stairs.
This prevents persons from seeing directly
into the kitchen and keeps the smell Of
cooking from entering the hall to a great
extent.

Asylum. The place must be south of

east of Wayne county. This gives US a

there will doubtless be many competing

themselves to secure the longest pole in
