Ten Anxious Minutes.

Captain Anderson rescued the crew OF
a Dutch schooner from a wild part Of the
island of Formosa, after firing upon some
of the natives. His return is thus do
scribed in "a Cruise in an Opium Clip
per-" "Our way took us in single file
through a narrow pass, and as l entered
it at the head of my men, for a second
my heart almost ceased to beat at the
startling sight that met my gaze. :
'fThe pass was lined on both sides with
ferocious looking natives armed with
pole axes, spears, huge knives and many
other death dealing instruments.
although | was taken fiat aback by
the sight, some instinct carried me for
ward sword in hand, looking to the right
and left with n cool. staring eye, which
seemed to curb the revengeful spirit of
the natives.
"On arriving at the other end of the
defle | stopped, turned round, saw all the
men safely through, and then told them
in unmistakable English to make a clean
pair of heels for the ship, while l brought
up the rear at n sharp pace rs soon as /
had got a little way from the entrance of
the pass, so that the natives might not
see us in too great a hurry.
How they let us through without
touching n hair of our heads or once
making a motion toward us passes my
comprehension"

They tell a funny story of a man who
rented a box in the postoffice awhile ago.
He appears to have been new to the
business and failed to get the hang Of
the thing. After n month or so he called
on one of the postoffice officials and be-
gan to kick about the box. 1.-THE blamed
thing never had any mail in it." was his
complaint.
81 have looked in that box every day
since | rented it and it hasn't had thing
in it the whole time. even addressed a
letter to myself and never heard from it. "
The two took a look at the box and
the postofice man inquired if the box
renter had aver opened his box Why,
no; of course not. Couldn't he see that
there wasn't anything in it.
OF course it turned out that he had
forgotten the number of his box though
it was on his receipt, and had been
watching and swearing over an unrented
one. He found n stock of mail in his
box at last and went away feeling small
enough o crowd inside of it.-Buffalo
Express.

ward in the West Indies, before / came
to the States. met the wooden Indian
long before l came to this country. l
ave been asked before where the wooden
Indian got his start. l only know what
l have heard about him in the Old
World. There was an adventurer
named Rutz who left his old city, Bar
%celona, and came to Virginia 300 years
ago. When he returned he executed
the wooden Indian in a rude way, as n
type of the sort of animal he had met in
the New World, and the figure was set
up in front of a shop where wine was
sold. Finally it became a sort of trade
mark. There were smokers in those
days and they assembled around the In
dian. And the wooden Indian is now
seen in front of nearly every cigar store.

There are signs of a restoration Of
good feeling between the rival iron
molders' OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES union and
the brotherhood. Leaders are talking

forts to attain the same end, and re-
Gently in Cleveland the presidents of the
two bodies debated their cases before n
large body of workmen. Though neither
debater yielded much to the other, both
professed to have the interests of the
rank and file at heart. There is no time
like the present for settling a dispute of
this sort. This comes home to the mold
ers more forcibly because of the failure
in San Francisco of a strike that has
lasted for nineteen months, in which
about 800, 900 was spent to sustain the
strikers. The organization troubles and
the increase of nonunion men is said to
have heen the cause of the failure

ENGLISH INDEPENDENCE.
Open Criticism by workinEmen of the
Ways of Lord Dudley.

Open Criticism by workIngmen of thu
Ways Of Lord Dudley.
A London correspondent says:
The English workingman is not far
behind his American brother in independ.
ence of thought and open criticism of the
ways of those higher in the social scale
than himself On the occasion of the
marriage of Lord Dudley it was proposed
by the town council of Kidderminster,
near which town Lord Dudley's seat is
situated, to present him with a wedding
present and address of congratulation.
Worcester had subscribed for several
magnificent pieces of china, a right royal
gift to be presented on the home coming
of the bride and bridegroom, and Kid
derminster objected to be eclipsed.
The proposal, however, met with great
opposition and several workmen spoke
very feelingly on the subject. Mr..
Rowe, a weaver, gave his opinion that
when a town like Kidderminster was
called TO do honor u any man there
should surely be something about him to
merit it.
He should be a man trying to make
the community better than it is, while,
according to his ideas, judging Lord
Dudley on his merits, no honorable man
could subscribe for a presentation to
him. If the town council were 80 anx-
ious to raise a subscription, a fund for
relieving the distress among local arti-
sans, said Mr.. Rowe, would be far moro
deserving of support than a ''presenta-
ton to a man whose past life had been
spent on ace courses"
But the righteous weaver did not
utterly condemn the proposal, moving
that the question should be adjourned
for five years, when, if Lord Dudley. had
reformed his career, the proposal might
be further considered and the approval
of the town of Kidderminster might
crown his efforts.
Another valiant workman assisted in
raising the standard of revolt against the
conservative prejudices of the town
council, and remarked that if Lord Dud-
ley was to receive n present solely be-
cause he was the son of his father and
had been lately married, they might on
the same grounds make presentations
every hour in the day and every day in
the week.
He seconded his predecessors proposal
with reference to the fund for relieving
the artisans, who, he rightly insisted,
were far more in want of a gift than the
young peer. Lord Dudley's income,
said he, is e10o, 600, while many of the
men were in want of food.
Certainly n could not have a better
illustration of the text ITO those
that have to them shall be given" than
the somewhat snobbish desire to give
costly wedding gifts to the newly mar
ried pair, who must have a superfuity
while their fellow citizens are starving;
but the righteous protest of the speakers
was, l need scarcely say, disregarded,
and Lord Dudley will get his wedding
gift.

Waited Until the Child Wa. Safe.

An interesting little war story has
Governor Jones, of Alabama, for its
hero. At the time Gordon was resisting
Sherman's advance, Jones, then a staff
captain, was delivering a message from
his chief when he saw a little child, clad
only in night clothes, hiding in terror
behind a frame house in the direct range
of the bullets from each army. Jones
rode forward, took the child on his horse
and galloped back with her to the Con-
federate line. When the Union forces
saw the act they ceased firing, and there
was an impromptu cessation Of hostili-
ties until the child had been carried to q
point of safety.-Charleston News and
Courier.

They got into an argument about thu
money made by people who earn their
living on the stage, OF course they diff.
fered; people can't argue satisfactorily
unless they do differ. But here is the
opinion Of a woman who was once on
the stage, who was considered popular,
who was clever enough in her work to
get applause and praise, who presum.
ably earned more than the average &C
tress, and yet who is content with her
present life:
When | take out the money paid for
gowns which were useless except on the
stage, when | make allowance for trav-
cling expenses, hotel bills, weeks in
which few performers earn anything;
when | take into account engagements
which could not for many reasons be
satisfactory to me; when l foot up the
salaries which sometimes in my early
work | received, and when | esti-
mate the thousand and one little ex-
penses which were hen necessary, l con-
slider that for several years of my life /
earned practically nothing but a living.
and | worked very hard, you must IN
derstand. Wheu l got married l left
the stage. Now it isn't necessary to tell
you what my salary was or what my
husbands salary now is, but his earn
ings are less han mine were. But we
two live much better on his smaller
salary than | alone could live on my
bigger salary. We have q pretty home
AND all that we need to be happy. We
save a little money too. So L suppose
this is a fair answer as to what one
makes On the stage. There are a great
many circumstances to be considered"

81 learned n lesson this morning" said
a well known attorney. IAN acquaint-
ance of mine asked me for n loan, and as
| have felt for some time hat he was
somewhat shiftless ! refused, and told
him to go and find work and show that
he was willing to help himself and then
l would help him. He left my Office and
without his knowing it | followed him
| watched him for nearly an hour, see
ing him go in and out of stores and Of
fees, and then, as though by chance, l
met him again. Well, found any work
yeti l asked, and he answered: No, not
yet, but I'll keep at it. I've been look
ing for work for three months and I'm
used to it. In this way l learned the
lesson that employment is not to be had
at every turn, as l have heretofore be-
lieved."-Detroit Free Press.

DEMOCRATIC CITY TICKET.
A CLEAR ISSUE.

We believe the people of Cheyenne are
tired of the favoritism shown and very
many Of the actions taken BY the close
corporation known as the city council.
We believe thay are tired of the constant
ly increasing taxation and the pilinR up
of municipal debt disproportIoned to
the capacity of the Leople to pay. They
are opposed to the continuance of fat sal
aries to supernumerary officers and the
creation OF such offices for the benefit of
the favored few at the expense of the
many who are compelled to worry along
as best they can without political pap.
They are opposed to paying salaries, to
the street commissioners. for instance,
at periods of the year when work
cannot be kdvautsgeously done on the
streets. They are opposed to constant
and deliberate iniractious of the law of
the state which is intended to prevent the
members of such bodies as the city coun-
Gil from making contracts with each other
to furnish supplies to the city and then
passing upon the bills which are pre-
scented for the same. They are opposed
(or for the good of pure government thev
should be opposed) to the you tickle me
and I'll tickle you" policy which prevails
"A policy in which the public good is too
of en- lost sight of in the effort to obtain
direct or indirect private benefit. They
are opposed to tavoritism shown 10. any
individual or corporation because of his or
its wealth or importance. believing that
before the law all men should stand equal
irrespective of the extent of their worldly
possessions.
IN a word they want a council which
will be the servant. not the master of the
people, whose members will not treat
perfectly reasonable requests with super
cilious fippancy~ and arbitrarily follow
their W acknowledgements OF the
wishes of a very large majority of their
constituents.
We believe the people of Cheyenne are
tired of the high handed actions of the
city council and are prepared to rebuke
thtln ~ u pbils. iHt btunOCThiS ave
put forward good men. They are all
thoroughly imbued with the importance
of the situation. They are pledged to an
economical administration should the
people honor them with their SURFACES.
The issue between the two parties IS
sharply defined. The question of politics
does not directly enter into it. Unless
we misrcad the signs of the times, what
the people most desire is change from the
prevailing methods of subserviency to a
few interests and utter disregard OF the
interests of the manv, extravaRance at a
time when the conditions of the taxpayers
demand the most rigid economy and
relief from the machine methods which
are developing perpetual Office holding,
shiitlCssness and thorough disregard OF
the ~outspoken will of the people.
The Democrats therefore enter the brief
municipal campaign backed by thoroughly
defined public issues and have good
grounds to entertain the belief that a ma
jority OF the people are with them in the
effort which they will now make to wrest
the city government from the little clique
which at present controls il.

HOW THE RECORD STANDS.

A tally of the prisoners who have
escaped from the county Jail during
Sheriff Kelley's administration would
appear as follows:
First Escape: Frank B. Park:sou,
convicted of murder in the second degree;
Charles Miller, convicted OF murder in the
first degree. Miller was caught; Parkison
is still at large.
Second Escape: Charles Miller, con.
victed of murder in the first degree;
William Kingen, sentenced to eight
years imprisonment upon conviction OF
cattle stealing; johnson, a United States
prisoner, charged with giving whisky TO
some indians on the Shoshone reserva-
ton. Of these. KinRen, who persisted on
the prairie, will probably be buried at
Gering. Neb.. today; Miller is in the
county hospital rapidly recuperating and
johnson spent last night in the dungeon
OF the county Jail. with a light meal inside
Of him and a light blanket over him.
On John son the sheriff will be $50
ont Of pocket in the way of a reward
alone; on the other two, claims for the
reward of $400 have already been put In
against Laramie county. Jail breaks
have proven rather expensive in loss OF
life as well as loss of money. With the
handful of prisoners now confined in the
Jail Sheriff Kelley should be able to keen
them all safely confined during the re.
mainder of his term of office.
