One of tho FamiIx."

"No, please" once wrote lady to a friend, "when come to see you don't treat me as one of the family. When hear that promise I stay away. like. when go out, to be company I like to consider guests, who come to see me, as company Other people may pre- tend to the contrary-it is all humbug When my friends come to my house do aS l would be done by-I receive them in decent dress. I take out my hair-crimpers; entertain them in the parl0r, and have something which I consider good for tea. The little vail Sf mystery which I let fall over the kitchen and its occupant is very com forta ble to all of us. neither convey them into the back basement nor to the Sky-parlor.

Terrible Accident in ChicaSo---Three
 Dead, Two Dying.
 CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-By the terrific ex- plosion in the boiler room of the Warren Springer Company's building On South Canal street. Three men are known to have been killed outright and three others so badly injured that their recovery is doubtful. The names of the dead are: Edward Bush, white laborer, Patrick Rogers, white fireman, Arthur Hall, col ored fireman.
 The injured are: James Siggins, fire man, terribly scaldcd; Henry Oswald, laborer, internally injured, cannot live; John Lee, colored fireman, frightfully bruised, cannot live.
 The cause of the explosion is as yet unknown. The engineer says he left the engine room but a few moments before the explosion occurred, and that the boilers were all right.
 All the injured are at the hospital, where it was stated this morning that two of the injured men will undoubtedly die.

To Test the Anti-Lottery Law.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-A brief for the appellant has been filed in the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Edward V. Horncr, appellant, vs. the United States and john w. Jacobus, Marshal of the United States for the sout hcrn District of New York. This is q case to test the legality of the anti lottery law, the main contention against it made by Horner being that it provides for the trial of person charged with it's violation, in the judicial district where the lottery matter mailed was received. Hornrr, it is alleged, mailed lottery circulars in New York city to places in Illinois He was indicted in the latter State and an order made for his appear ance before the Illinois court and the United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York ordered him to be sent there for trial. From this decision he appealed.

Speaker Crisp to Make Several Changes
 In the Code.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Speaker Crisp is recovering, though it is not thought it would be safe for him to go out for some time yet, lest he should take cold, being in weak physical condition. He will probably be able to begin the con sid"''oton of the new rules within a few days.
 ne other Democrats of the Concnittce on Rules will confer with him at his ho- tel as soon aS ii is thought desirable for him to huE n work. In this way the ma jority report will probably be got really, so that t.iere will be no delay in it's pre- sentaNon to the House after the Speaker resumes his duties at the Capitol.
 There is really not a great amount of work to be done on the rules. The code of the fiftieth Congress will form the basis, and but few changes will be nec- essary to make the rules conform to the ideas of the Speaker and the leaders of the ma jority of this House.
 The code will not contain any arbitrary features but some of the laXity of the old Carlisle rules will be corrected.
 It is probable that the right to legis- late on appropriation and to reduce ex penditures will be restored.

What is lacking is truth and conf dence. If there were absolute truth on the one hand and absolute confidence on the other, it wouldn't be necessary for the makers of Dr Sage's catarrh remedy to back up a plain statement of fact by a $500 guarantee. They say-"If we cant cure you (make it personal please), of catarrh in the head, in any form or stage, we'll pay you $500 for your trouble in making the trial" An ad- vertising fake, you say. Funny, isn't it, how some people prefer sickness to health when the remedy is positive and the guarantee absolute. Wise men don't put money back of fakes" And fak- ing doesn't pay. - - '.-. .-.--.

China Has Not Withdrawn Her Objection
 to EX-Senator Blair.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Inquiry among officials who would be acquainted with the fact, did it exist, fails to confirm the report, purporting to be cablegram, published in a New York paper, that China had withdrawn her objection to ex-Senator Blair as Minister of the United States to that country.
 No such information has been received at the Chinese Embassy here, and us the protest against MT. Blair was transmitted to the home government by the Minister at this place, it is likely that the notitica- tion to the United States of a change of mind of the Pekin officials would be made through rhe same channel. It is said by an official in position to speak adviscdly, that there is not the remotest possibility of the Chinese Government changing it's opinion as to the desirabiiity of Mir.

THE silver question has already shown d ready disposition to bob up serenely in congress at any and all times. Several bills have been intro duced in the senate providing for free coinage, and although there has been only one ''bill' day in the house, four bills of the same sort were introduced besides several others having d more or less direct bearing on silver. One of them provides for the repeal of the pur- chasing clause of the present silver law. Senator Stewart maintains that there is a law already in existence authorizing the free coInage of silver, enacted in 1887 and never repealed, and he offered a resolution instructing the judiciary committee to inquire into the matter and report whether he is right or wrong Senator Merrill delivered a very able and conservative speech this week against the unlimited free coinage of silver, in answer to Senator Stewards recent speech.

No Can stand About Every Other Kind
 of Human Being.
 A thief and liar can be endured. be- cause one can not be perpetually lying and stealing, but the man who was born with the spirit of argument in his composition follows the business of arguing continually. You can not risk saying that the grass is green, or that a rats tail is longer than a mouse's with out being contradicted and challenged to prove your statement.
 He will discuss the subject pro and con to show you that you are in error, and if you don't sec it he will ipsinuate that some folks are intellectually blind, and then your temper will rise and his likewise, and you will say something hot, and so will he, and there will be 'troIble in camp" When it comes to married life it is safe to say that twe- thirds of the divorces are caused by arguments
 People who do not argue seldom ap- pear in divorce courts. It has been said over and over again that no two per sons can be found who agree upon every point, and probably it is a true assertion. Nor is it necessary that they should
 Peace and order can be preserved in house by forbearance and tolerance, even if one member of the household insists that white is black We should always be willing to grant freedom of thought and belief to others.
 Two persons who are associated to- gether will before long discover that there are points upon which they al ways disagree, and these subjects should always be avoided in converse ton. They are rocks upon which many bark of happiness has been wrecked.
 Change the conversation whenever you find it drifting toward these fatal channels, just as you would change the course of ship if you were pilot and saw gleaming in your course the warn ing buoy attached to a sunken reef Whenever it can consistently be done it is best to avoid the man who argues It is extremely unpleasant to feel tha. you are on the witness stand of cross examination and to be obliged to prove your simplest proposition by all the ologies and isms known to science Argument is in it's place in lyceums and debates-sometimes ir the pulpit but not as a steady diet among friends. It is the essence of contradiction; and the person who is continually contra dieting will act like an east wind on peace and sociability.

The list is headed by Porter, of the census bureau, who, through the treasury department, has asked fer deficiency appropriation of $1 ,OOO, ,OOO, to complete the work of that bureau, and there are those who doubt whether that amount will be sufficient. if Porter is to be allowed to do it in his own way.

THERE are about 800 newspapers in the state of Kansas, and the late Senator Plumb was q subscriber to every one of them. He devoted about two hours every forenoon to reading them. He was once quoted as saying: "I believe in the local newspapers. They are the leaders, the makers of public sentiment They are nearer to the people than any other papers. Their editors mingle with the people, and consciously or un- consciously reflect the views of their readers. By my private letters from all parts of the state. and by reading the local papers, I can tell just what the people of Kansas are thinking and talk ing about. can feel the pulse of the people, and take their temperature"
