The sword of a noble knight was
mentioned almost as often as himself
in the songs of the troubadours of the
Middle Ages. In the oldcn time this
trusty weapon was named and personi-
fled as accomplishing countless brilliant
deeds. In the proverbs Of all nations
it is spoken of with reverence and
trust 1t represents the rank and re
nown, the heroism and honor, the
glory and greatness of nations in the
past. One of the first weapons made
by man, it became his most important
arm and auxiliary of warfare.
IL has always been the visible badge
of birth, bravery and freedom; to sur
render it was to admit defeat and dis
grace. SO long has it been the con
slant companion of rank and valor that
it has acquired a dignity of its own.
Like no other weapon, it has a quality
entirely distinct from its character as a
blood shedder. In England even at the
present day the sword alone is con-
sidered adequate to confer knighthood.

Wales Bewigged.

1t is stated, ION very good authority
that the Prince of Wales has decided
that on his return to London he will
take up and interest himself in, even
more pronouncedly than he has hitherto
done, the important question the dwell
,ags of the poor. The majority of peo-
pie know that the prince has already
done much in this direction, In addition
TO presiding at conferences on the sub
lect, his royal highness has figured as a
"slummer. He has visited some of the
most notorious quarters in the East End
of the metropolis, peering into thieves
dens and other still more disreputable
places, where filth and squalor have been
painfully conspicuous.
OF course his royal highness has not
been known at these times, except to
perhaps one individual who accompanied
him; on more than one occasion he has
not been content with donning shabby
attire, but has assumed Il wig and false
beard. The prince, however, feels very
keenly on the subject Of the ameliora-
ton OF the poorer classes, and is ex-
tremely DESTROYS to do his best on their
oehalf.-West Mercury.

What the Minister Said.

1t is tribute to the basis of real dig

character that a we'll bred foreigner
will take simply as they are meant the
constant surprises she affords him in
the way of daring escapades, any one
of which would at once destroy his re

countrywomen. A transatlantic man
riage which was started by practica
joke was that of the young minister from

dinner how he should make his
adieux to his hostess, as she did not
speak French and his own knowledge
of English was of the slightest. Quite
seriously she taught him to say, "Golly

he repeated the absurd and dreadful
little speech with great distinctness TO
his hostess, vino at once detected the
source of the poor mans blunder and

A report was current on the sire cts
yesterday Afternoon that the county
tax collector OF McLenuan county,
Otis w. David, was short in his az
counts with the state and county. The
report came Ike clap Of thunder out
of clear sky to Mr.. DAvid's thousands
of friends here and 1t could hardly be
credited In a few hours the rumOr
was on every tongue in Waco, but
there was not a man to be found that
had not the kindest words for CoOt
! David.
This morning THE News began to
make an investigation Of the matter.
Mr.. Davids bondsmen were first irter-
viewed and even in the face of the
possibility of having to pay large
sum for him, they did not question his
integrity.
The facts seem to be about as fol,
lows:
Mr.. David made a report to the
county commissioners at their last
term aud his books and accounts were
found to be correct in every particular
and those who investigated his books
there, commented on his ability and
capacity as public official. A few
days ago, Mr.. David was informed by
County Clerk Baker that there
was discrepancy in his
accounts and upon investigation, Mr.,
David discovered that there was dis
crepancy and as it would require an
investigation, Mr.. David Immediately
went to his bondsmen and told them
what be had discovered and conveyed
to them every dollar of his possessions
to secure them while the matter was
being inquired into.
No man can tell at this juncture
what the shortage is or will be. 1t is
certain that Mr.. David has made res.
titution as far as he WAS able and
while his bondsmen uphold him, it is
nothing more than justice and charity
for the public to await the result. Of an
investigation before forming an
opinion. 1t is we'll known
to the friends and intimate acquaint.
snces of MIR. David that he has been
in very bad health for the past four
months and that be has been kept
away from his Office a great part OF
that time. In the meantime, the
whole matter will be thoroughly in
qured into and lift is found that there
Is shortage it will be promptly paid
1t is bus Justice to state that as the
investigation progresses it is dis.
covered that the alleged shortage grows
smaller and it is possible that il
may not reach any considerable
amount after all.
Mr. David perhaps enjoys q greater
popularity than any man of his age in
this county. He is now serving hi;
third term as tax collector and would
have made the race for fourth if his
health had not been too precarious tC
admit the contest.
1t is now confidently stated that the
reported amount Of his shortage has
decreased fifty per cent.
County Judge Jenkins has ordered
the county clerk to make thorough
investigation of Mr.. Davlds affairs.

The Democratic flag raising last even
ing was quite an enthusiastic demonstra-
tion, as far as the small boys were con-
cerned. Stones Continental Band fur
brought together large crowd Of men,
women and children at the square where
the flag was to be thrown to the breeze.
Tie ropes were stretched from Ingraham
block To pole placed on top OF Maguire's
building. The flag was thrown TO the
breeze amidst the familiar strains OF the
Star Spangled Banner"
The enthusiasm was so great that it
was hard work to get three cheers loud
enough to be heard two blocks away.
The procession then marched up Warren
avenue through Purchase street and
Taunton aveaue to the new town hall.
The crowd here was very conspicuous on
account of the absence of voters who
usually attend all such public demon
strations. There were not over 100 vote rs
in the hall.
The boys were rather noisy and kept
going out during the lecture, in small
squads.
The meeting was called TO order by the
chairman of the Democratic town com
mittee, George Macleod, who introduced
Harmon :. BaOcock, chairman of the
Cleveland and Stevenson Club as the pre-
siding officer. lie made some remaks as he
introduced the speakers of the evening
One as that he had recently been con
verted to the idea that the state bank sys-
TEN would be of greater benefit to the
country than the present National bank
my system.
The speakers of the evening were Frank
Jackson and Oscar Lapham who made
very eloquent campaign speeches on the
issue of the day. One reason for the
small number present may be the notice
which said the speaking would be III
Wachemoket Hall instead of the Town
Hall.
AS there was dance in Watchemoket
Hall, under the auspices OF the knights
of Pythias, this might have had some at
traction that the speaking did MOI, and
some went there that would otherwise
have gone to the Town Hall.

FRENCH REPUBLICANS.
The Hon. w. A. Phillips Addresses tn,
Oineyville Club.

The Hon. w. A. Phillips Addresses the
Olneyvilie Club.
Z The French Republican Club of Otney-
vilio undoubtedly misunderstood the
dictum of the Nationsi aud State Central
Committees to have no rallies previous to
the funeral OF Mrs. Harrison as not apply
ing to those already arranged for.
The members of the club and their
friends gathered in Irons Hall in large
numbers and awaited patiently the COM
ing of the expected speakers promised by
the Central Committee. When their
non-appearance was known the audience
was 10th 10 60 1t wanted TO hear Repub-
lican truth, and not 10 disappoint it the
local CONF ittee soon arranged for ad-
dresses by local speakers, and the Hon.
William a. Phillips and Ambrose Cho-
quet, Esq, of Pawtucket were secured.
Mr.. Phillips opened the meeting by
saying that he would speak as an Ameri-
can citizen, and not from the bias of
parlizan, although he is Republican.
There are two issues in this campaign
Reciprocity and Protection. The Demo
cratic party, in its platform, asks for
freer trade, which means free trade alone
The Republicans claim that protection is
the safeguard OF the working people
alone.
During the past ten days, the speaker
said. he had been assisting so-called
capitalists to secure property TO start n
new mill One of the intending Dur-
chHsers said TO him if he thought the
protection idea was to fail in the carrying
out of it be would not consummate the
purchase.
Mr. Phillips cited the condition of the
Fall River Mills and asked whatever in
the name of Heaven their thrifty cond l.
tion was due To. if not to Protection.
Profits and profits allows the mills TO
run and thus gives employment To many.
He referred to an article in the NEWS of
Wednesday, which reported tue i'm
pending cut in wages of English mil
operatives, and the consequent strike of
$4,000 Of them.
He appealed to his hearers as men who
have come here TO make their homes, as
men VINO ought to know the difference
between the condition of homes there and
here, and having here good wages, "a good
LIVING and "A good education for tieir
children which they never had ia the old
cou try.
The impending strike OF the $4,000 mill
operatives due To the cut down of salaries
meant cold. misery and starvation TO five
times 81, 600 people. The manufacturers
say they cannot pay the old wages and
make a living, ana so cut them down,
which before were one-haif lower than
those paid here.
Take these facts home, you who have
come here to make your homes, urged
the speaker, because you came here
knowing you would be able TO yet good
home. You 10 not want to get down to
wages you were paid i'm the old country,
for not man gets rs good wages rs here.
Mr. Phillips cited few instances OF
the benefits of protection to show that
the result of protection is To favor the
American workingmen.
