passes her stoops down, and, address.

A FREAK OF NATURE.

A Picture of Spokane Falls IN the
Eye of Horse.
Some rare and unaccountsble freak
of nature has made natural wonder
of and uuassuming white horse at
Spokane Falls, Wash. The wonder
is not the horse himself, but In pic.
ture which covers the front part of
the left eye OF the animal. Anyone
who has ever had the pleasure Of q
visit to Spokane will remember the
falls which give the city its other
name, that is the name of Spokane
Falls. The picture in the horses eye
is q perfect miniature of the falls,
island, mill and all. The animals
optic has been examined by hundreds
of persons, including photographers.
scientists, opticians, etc, and the
miniature in the eye has been careful
ly compared with photographs and
eDgravings of the falls, ana all have
concurred In prOnouncfng it wonder
of wonders and O most remarkably
correct picture. The owner of this
wonderful creature has been offered
all the way from S., 900 to $4,000 for
his curiosity, but so far he has refus-
ed all offers, seeming to prefer being
pestered to death by sightseers, who
come by the thousands to view the
uncanny picture and ask questions.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

The present legislature has a demo-
cratic majority in both branches, pro-
cured by THEFT. Naturally enough, il
is favorable to any grab bills which
will enrich the men who stole for the
democratic party majority of each
branch of the Dody.-New York
Press.
Pennsylvania republicans believe
that James &. Blaine is the man to
lead the publican hosts to certain
victory, and all the delegates thus
far selected, thirteen, are solidly
shouting for Blaine. Why should
Iowa republicans hesitate to declare
their first and undoubted CHOICE
Iowa State Register.
The democrats seem to forget that
they were elected to accomplish prac-
tical legislation. If they will get
down to business and pass some bills,
reserving their campaign speeches
for the campaign, they will better
satisfy their constituents and stand q
better chance OF observation-disclosures

Democrats are not mad at Hill for

ing two salaries, or for stealing q

From the Sioux City Journal.
