"AfterI came perhaps he neglected
her or broke some of the tendrils she had
fastened upon him. 1t was only natural
that he should show me about a little,
all the other men being occupied with
the widow. He was merely trying to
keep me from ~stagnation, I'm sure. It
was absurd for her to grow jealous, but
she did, and she a married woman! Visi-
bly, jealous! Perfectly preposterous, es-
pecially when there was nothing between
us. Were only amusing each other;
only passing away the time-the days
were SO long and delightful" 9

"You mean that you do not care for

To this she would make no reply, only
looked at me in a hooking way, and I
rose to go. We climbed the hill arm in

about to touch the pony with the whip
when she leaned over, placed her hand
on the back Of the seat and whispered:
Cali that talk about Father Time is a
mistake. They ought TO say Mother
Time. I always knew Time was a wom-
an because-time-will-tell."
She picked up her skirts with one
hand, threw me a kiss with the other
and ran into the house. My eyes and
thoughts followed her until a tug at the
reins apprised me- that pony had started
for home on his own accord, d~elicately
intimating that an afternoon call should
end hafore evening"

Editor Chronicle:
A few of the citizens of our city, in
Guiding myself, were enticed last even
ing to attend an alleged Temperance
meeting at the court house, to hear
Messrs. Wolfenbarger and Huckins pre-
sent their views on the prohibition
question, by both song and speech. The
first part of the program was well rend-
cred and received, but the second part
by Mr.. Wolfenbarger, (Wolf-in-bear-
gear, was the most rank free trade
speech that 1 have ever heard.
He started out by comparing the Mills
and Mckinley bills, with leaning very
much in favor of the former, stating
that the latter was piece of the most
iniquitous legislation that was ever
perpetrated on the American people
he claimed that in 1888, when the Mills
bill was before congress, there was only
an average difference of seven per cent.
between it and the then existing tariff,
but that the Mckinley bill, which passed
in 1890, increased the average tariff from
forty-seven to sixty per cent. After
listening to few more such statements,
left the room in disgust.
do not think that any "Fair Minded
Nan" will believe that these people are
working in the interest of the prohibi-
tion party, but are employed by the
democrats for purposes best known to
themselves.
The meeting last night, reminded me
of the street fakir, who employs troupe
of singers to. attract a crowd, after which
he proceeds to swindle the people by
offering them a small piece of soap,
supposed to contain twenty dollar
greenback, all for the small sum of one
dollar.

If Governor Pennoyer's well meant

BILE, in the abandonment of the works at
the Cascades, it were better a thousand
times that he should never have written
letter to the chairman OF the river and
harbor committee. If we cannot get
appropriations for both purposes, every
effort should be put forth to hold up the
hands of Mr.. Hermann in his fight for
the Cascade appropriation. A meeting
of The Dalles board of trade is called
for tomorrow evening, to consider@his
matter, and doubtless an earnest protest
will be sent to Washington against the
thought of abandoning the works at the
Cascades. Mr.. Hermann's position is
the right one. If one or other of the
two works is to be abandoned, let it the
portage and the state can build that.
But on the other hand if the work at
the Cascades is to be carried on, as it
has been for nearly score of years, let
US have the portage. We have no
direct interest in work that there is no
hope of seeing finished for another gem
Grafton. 1t is more than likely, the
dispatches to the contrary, notwith-
standing, that this is the same position
that the governor himself takes.

Just Like a Man.

When man slips on a banana
peel or anything else his face lights up
with astonishment rarely shown on any
other occasion He invariably stops,
turns and mentally marks the location
of the article, as if he might come that
way again some day and it would be
just as well to be posted; then looks at
his foot quite as curiously. probably
dropping a casual observation or two
concerning possible future state of ex-
istence. None of these things tend to
modify the fact that he slipped and that
he is no more likely to slip again on the
same thing than he is to be struck by
lightning. York Herald.

was occupied at the entertainment last
evening. The Norma Glee Club gave q
musical entertainment which lasted longer
than was expected. VIII Carlton, the poet
lecturer, did not arrive until $50 o. clock,
having missed the earlier train in Phila-
delphia. However, the glee club kept the
audience in good spirits until Mr. Carlton
arrived. Governor Reynolds introduced
him in neat little speech. He congratu-
lated the audience in being so highly
entertained with the music and said that
if there was anything in an audience con-
sisting of bright eyes and smiling faces
Mr.. Carlton would be seen AT his hest.
Mr.. Carlton in his reply said he could
easily see how the governor made such re-
marks and had no doubt that if he were
again nominated for the high position that
he now holds he would receive much
larger majority if women could vote He
then launched into his subject, "Thc Chain
Of Success" by saying that there was moth
ing like success, but it had thousand
definitions. His two ideas Of success were:
The accomplishment of that which we
undertake, and the accomplishment of
that which God undertook when he Gre
atcd u.s. The lecture teemed with bright
sayings throughout and was we'll received.
Mr.. Carlton receited several poems during
the evening, but the following were excep-
tionally good. 1.-THE Tramp and the Mort

VERY CHEAP IF GOOD.
Sirloin Less Than Four Cents Per Pound
WINS IL Disrnsed2 2

A New Castle hundred farmer came
to King street Market Wednesday with a
wagon load of beef and made numerous
sales at low prices. At times there were
assembled around the stand in front of
his dearborn four or five people, each
waiting his turn to buy. 1t is asserted
the farmer sold four and half pounds
~f sirlon for 90 ccsts, the supposed
standard price for one pound of steak.
The individual who volunteered this in
formation declared he was Of the opin-
ion the meat was part of an animal
which had died of disease instead of
having been killed. He based this sup
position on the general appearance of
the meat and on the fact that it con-
tanned scarcely any fat. "Td inst as
leave eat dog as to eat such meat as
that" he remarked while pointing to
some which the farmer was weighing
for an eager customer.
Clerk of the Market S. N. Smeltz
said his attention was directed to the
meat in question and he carefully ex-
amined it. 81 pride myself on being a
connoisscur of meat he stated, land |
would be willing to eat the meat to
which objection was made.' "'There
was nothing at all the matter with it,
he declared. He expressed the opinion
that the person complaining was
prompted by business jealousy.
A representative OF THE GAZETTE
saw some of the meat at noon. What
remained was frozen and rough looking.
Pointing to the best looking piece the
reporter asked the price, and was told
five cents per pound. A few seconds
previous woman had selected a piece
to purchase, and the spry dealer threw
it towards his scales, but his aim was
poor and the meat fell in the icy gutter.
The mishap did not embarass him
particle. He stopped, gathered the meat
up, weighed it, transferred it to block
in his wagon, where he gave it two or
three whacks with a cleaver, covered it
with paper and then gracefully and
smilingly deposited it in the customers
basket.
A butcher expressed no surprise when
informed of the farmers price for sirloin.
"Some people pay 90 cents per pound"
he said, "but poor people cannot afford
to pay that much, and buy cheaper.
The time has come,' he added, "when
we cannot stick at one price," He often
saw stewing pieces sold for three and
four cents per pound.
