How the Soldiers GOT Their Tobacco.
from the Lake Crystal, MINI, Union.I
S. T. Merrill, who was a soldier and did
service fighting Indians In SO, says: "At
one time the men had to march to Fort
Ridgely, distance of several miles; and
after they arrived there they suffered for
several days for something to eat; but the
greatest hardship they had to endure was
to do without their tobacco. Nothing
takes the place of tobacco with the soldier.
In the course of time they left camp
equipage, suffers goods, etc., behind and
moved to new quarters. As soon as 1t
was known that the sutler wagons were
coming, and that one Of them contained a
good supply of the weed, number of the
soldier boys went back to intercept the
train. Several miles out from camp they
discovered the wagons coming; piece of
underbrush and timber was selected as the
place where they would meet them. Each
man took along his blanket, and after the
wagons had passed the boys put their
blankets over their heads and crossed and
recrosssd the trail. AS soon as the drivers
saw these figures, and supposing them to
be Indians, they put the whip to their
teams and away they went The boys
kept up and closed in on them The dri-
vers stopped, threw out goods of various
kinds in boxes to tighten their loadp, and
this was just what they wanted Among
the boxes thrown out was the tobacco, and
what they all wanted, but on went the
wagons to camp. The boys got the tobac-
CO, divided it and went into camp by q
roundabout way. After the teams reached
camp cavalry company was sent back to
drive of the Indians. The goods were
soon recovered, except the tobacco, and
from that day to this no one but the boys
knew but that the Indians raided tho wsg-
ons aud got the tobacco"

The Maternal Instinct in Amin aIs.
William Walsham Wakefield in the London
SPECTATOR
1 lately met some friends who had with
them little dog called "vic," who had
adopted the family of cat in the house
and, while in possession, would not let the
mother come near her kittens. The kit
tens were kept in a very tall basket, and
''Vic" would take them in her mouth and
jump out with them one by one, and then
carry them into the garden and watch over
them, carrying them back in the same way
after time; at other times, lying content
edly with them In the basket. OF course
''Vio" had to be forcibly removed when
the adopted family required their mothers
attention for their sustenance. also have
met friend who saw a hen-hawk, which
was in cage, mothering young startling.
Three young, unfedged starlings were Civ
en- the hawk to eat. She ate two and then
brooded the other and took the utmost
care of it. Unhappily the young startling
died; and from that moment the hawk
would touch no food, but died herself In
few days.
The same friend was on . mountain one
day, when a sheep came up to him, and
unmistakably begged him to follow her,
going just in front, and continually look
ing round to zee If he was following. The
sheep led him at last to some rocks, where
he found lamb fast wedged In between
two pieces of rock. He was able to libe-
rate the lamb, to the evident Joy of the
mother.
myself once saw q cat ''broodingn and
taking care of . very small chicken, which,
being Matched first of a brood, had been
brought into cottage and placed in bss-
ket near the fire. It managed to get out
of the basket and hoped up to the cat,
who Immediately adopted it.

Georgia Democrats Engaged In an Exoit

ATLANTA, May livery prominent
democratic politician In the state is in the
city tonight, and the breach between the
two divisions of the party in the state is
growing wider and wider. A few far-see-
ing politicians are on hand counselling
moderation and compromise but the
warnings are UNDECIDED in the mad rush
that is being made by Cleveland and anti
Cleveland men to control the eonven-
ton.
The result of the primaries held yesrer-
day was such as to give encourage
ment to the Cleveland men, bat the ac-
tlvity of their opponents has more than
counterbalanced the result and the
Cleveland faction tonight is fearful
that it may be outgeneraled by the astute
politicians OF the other side. Indeed if
outward manifestations are to be relied
upon, the Cleveland men today were COM
PEELED to change their program and re-
cede from the demand for an instructed
Cleveland delegation. They claim they
will elect such emphatic Cleveland men
that they will not need instructions.
Rival meetings tonight were largely at
tended, and as above 100 delegates parti.
cipated in the proceedings of each, it
could not be seen that either had the ad-
van age from numerical standpoint,

THE TUNEC CHANGES.
An Illustration of Democratic Change full
ness TO suit circumstances

1t was not long ago that the Louisville
Courier Journal sent out daily howl,
from the very shrine of the star-eyed
goddess Of reform, against the Repub-
lican party because il restricted the
coinage of silver.
A great change has recently come over
it, How great that change ie may be
gathered from the following extracts
taken from it's leading editorial .of last
Saturday.
Silver mining given the mine-is an
exceedingly profitable industry. The
silver in silver dollar costs forty or fifty
cents to produce, varying, of course, with
The locality.
This amount of silver sells in the open
market for about sixty eight cents, which
profit woult satisfy any ordinary appe-
title, but IA does not satisfy the mine
owners
They insist that they be given the
right to call sixty eight cents IN silver 81
and, further, that every person be forced
to give one dollars worth OF corn, cotton,
wheat, groceries or any goods for sixty
eight cents in silver.
II there is any interest in The world
that does not need protection 1t IS silver
mining 1t draws men like q magnet
from all other Industries. The value of
silver is so great that three continents
are searched 10y spectators, and every
mouth records some new find The
price goes down, down, down, yet the
product creeps up, up, up 81
Silver must, as far as the silver produ-
GERS are concerned, take it's place with
other products, such as iron, cotton,
wheat and wool.
But 1t is preposterous TO assert that IT
as any more the duty of the government
TO put up the price OF silver than it is
its duty to put up the price of iron or
cotton.
The mere Use or silver will not sustain
it, The government Is now purchasing
the product of American mines and
using 1t as a'basis for currency, yet today
the difference between the currency
value and tbs market value is greater
than ever.
The only reasou we can surmise for
this sudden and surprising change If
opinion on the part Of our contemporary
is that the Courier journal has dscoy-
cred that it was mistaken When it
thought political success was to be won
10y a stalwart advocacy of claptrap
financial heresy. IL is beginning to find
out, perhaps, that the people of the
United States are not such fools as it
thought them to be.-Sentlnel.

The Big BarabOo Circus Meets With
Bad Accident in
Kansas.
One Section of the Train is Ditched
and Four ShOwmen
Killed.
Twenty Head of Stock are Drowned
and Much Other Damage
Done.

ATCHIsoN, Kas., May 1.-THE first
section of Ringing Bros. circus train,
east-bound, on the Central Branch rail
road, was ditched one mile east of Con-
cordia at 2;45 o'clock this morning, Four
showmen were killed and FIVE badly
injured, The accident occurred while the
train was passing a small culyert. The
engine passed over in safety, but the
structure gave way with the first car
Several cars were piled up in the
stream. About twenty head of stock
were drowned. Two dead bodies have
been taken from the wreck. A wrecking
crew left Atchison for the scene of the ac-
cident at 4 O'Clock, and Assistant Chief
Surgeon Farrar left shortly afterward ON
a special train. The recent heavy rains
caused the culvert to weaken. The circus
is owned by Wisconsin men, the five
Ringing brothers, of Baraboo They
started on small scale but now have a
very complete show Their stock is of
a very valuable kind and the loss of the
twenty animals by the wreck, besides the
destruction of wagons, menagerie vans
and other property, will be heavy
one.

AT IL o'clock James Burke, president of
the University of Michigan club, called
the Letting to order. Z. Wing, of Mich
igan. delivered the address of welcome,
which consisted of a glori6cation of the
republican party. The mention of
Blaine's name elected loud applause.
H. extended welcome on be-
half of the LAS student repub-
licans. S. B. Draper, of Albion college,
was elected temporary chairman, and j..
W. Knowles, of Purdee university, was
made temporary secretary, Committees

yersity of Michigan.
First vice PRESIDENT. B. Iregloam, of

ward college.
Treasurer-M. G. Alpin, Of Princeton.
One of the principal objects of the or
ga ration of these college republican
clubs, as stated in the platform, 10 to
counteract the general impression that col
lege men are free traders, and to foster
the development of a healthy study of po-
litical economy from a practical, rather
than theoretical standpoint; to encour-
age young men to take more prominent
part in political work and by encouraging
pure methods to place politics on higher
plane.
grand banquet was held this evening
at which there were over one thousand
guests. Gen. AlRer responded to the
sentiment, The Republican Party on
Guard. When Gov. Mckinley arose, he
was greeted with a round of applause

that he is "our soul, our original Moses

further remarked: "Mr. Cleveland al
lowed three years Of his old administra
ton to pass before he declared himself.
When other democrats we're struggling
with the demons Of darkness, he was
passive and silent. When he did speak
out he spoke well, but he was so skepti-
cal Of the issue he had himself proclpi-
tated that he sent Mr.. German and the
late William Il Scott TO St. Louis with
cut and driel platform, ignoring his
own message, ignoring the Mills bill,
reasserting as the party law the straddle
he had made in Chicago in 1881
Mr. Scott was a very close friend OF
Mr. Cleveland. Mr. German is living,
and the resolution, "cut and dried" on
tariff reform the straddle of 1884 is
what we have been talking about The
resolution Of 1888, we have mentioned, is

1884 Mr.. Watterson is positive, but We
are entitled to the precise words Of the
straddle as recommended by Mr.. Cleve-

second race. In justice to Mr. Cleveland
the resolution should be printed and
also the silver letter to General Tracey,

member of congress We do not think
Mr. Tracey misaid that letter. 1t
