A Canadian Scheme to Avoid Paying
Tolls Nipped in the Bud.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The Cana
dams, with view of evading the 90
cent tolls to be imposed in accordance
with the terms of the presidents procla-
nation on and after Sept. next, on the
Manitoba wheat shipped through st.
Mary's canal, are proposing to evade
the requirements of the proclamation
by shipping in Canadian bottoms from
Duluth to Port Huron to be trans
shipped from that point by the Grand
Trunk line through Canada. This
matter being brought to the attention of
the treasury department, Assistant
Secretary Spalding sent the following
explicit telegram to the solicitor of the
Grand Trunk railroad company:
Hon. F. e. Medbaugh, Detroit, Mich:
Neither Manitoba nor domestic wheat
can be carried in Canadian bottoms from
Duluth to Port Huron, as it would be in
violation of outcoasting laws. But if
carried in American bottoms it is not
subject to tolls. II carried drought the
canal from Duluth to Sarnia for con-
sumption in or export from Canada via

Strange Efrects of Extreme cold.

DR.. Moss. of the English polar expe-
dition of 1857, among many other
things, tells of the strange effects of the
extreme cold upon the candles they
burned. The temperature was from 30
to 80 dogs. below zero, and the doctor
says he was considerably discouraged
when upon looking at his candle he dis
covered that the ialne chad all it could
do to keep warm" 1t was SO cold that
the flame could not melt all of the tallow
of the candle, but was forced to eat its
way down, leaving a sort of skeleton
candle standing. There was heat enough,
however, to melt odd shaped holes in
the thin walls of tallow, the result be-
ing beautiful lacelike cylinder of white
with a narrow tongue of yellow fame
burning on the inside and sending out
many streaks of light into the darkness.

escape. Guards at once discovered the
men and commenced shooting. Hunt
ley was shot twice and Davis received a
ball in the hip. Neither will live. Bull

Setting the Verdict Alright.

Years ago an elderly and brusque
jurist from Sandusky used to hold dis
trict court here, and on one of his visits
beautiful young woman was tried be-
fore him and a jury on charge of steal
ing eighty-iye dollars from man. She
was clearly proved guilty, but the jury,
impressed by her youth and beauty,
found verdict of not guilty.
"Mr. Clerk" remarked the old Judge
''pay the eighty-five dollars to the pros
ecuting witness, it having been clearly
proved in this court that the defendant
stole it from him. and you may also pay
these twelve fools their fees and let
them go.3Cleveland Plain Dealer,

DANGER INCREASING.

Government Officials Recommend Clean
illness to Prevent Cholera.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. Government
officials are fully alive to the added
danger of introducing cholera into this
country from Europe arising out of the
fact that it has appeared in England on
its journey westward. Acting Secretary
Spaulding says that all the necessary
regulations prescribing precautions
against its introduction have been sent
to government officials along the Atlan=
tic seaboard and along the border, and
the only thing to do now was to see that
they were strictly enforced. If more
stringent or better efforts than those
now,in force were suggested to him he
would at once adopt them. Cities and
individuals could do much in sanitary
sense in restraining the introduction Of
cholera by keeping their cities and
premises free from garbage.

NOT A LIVE ISSUE.

The "force bill" is not likely to be a
live issue at the North or South. At the
North the cry of ''negro domination" only
makes the people smile, while at tho
South the white mems party of Kolb in
Alabama are so angry at being cheated out
of the election by fraud on the part of the
straight Democrats that they are bowling
for force bill.
In Georgia and the Carolinas both par
ties are showing their contempt for the
cry of negro domination by bidding for
the negro vote.

LOYAL TO THEIR HOME.

All things indicate that the Democrats
of King county are loyal to their home,
and will repudiste platform which is
grounded In hostility TO them and their
county. No King county man with .
trace Of loyalty TO his county and his
home can vote for candidates who stand
upon platform such as that presented by
the Democrats of Washington.
From the uttersnces of the leaders in
the convention before and after the adop-
ton of the anti-King county plank, it is
easy to infer where they will stand on
