Pedestrians on Sixth avenue yesterday
during shopping time were much puz-
zled by an old woman who was playing
q barrel organ at the corner of Thirtieth
street. On one end OF the organ she had
pasted this sign. Help the Blind" Be
meath it appeared this second appeal.
II Am the Father of Seven Motherless
Children" The old woman wore pair
of blue goggles, behind which her eyes
were completely hidden. Many quiz.
zical looks were thrown at her as the
passersby read the inscription on the or
gan, and one or two persons said some
sharp words, but the old woman went
on placidly turning the crank.
A few blocks down the street the mys
terry Of the inscription was cleared up
At Twenty-sixth street sat an old man
turning music out of barrel organ as
dilapidated as the one whose faint strains
could almost be heard from up the
street. He, too, wore goggles, and his
organ bore this legend. "Help the Blind"
and under it, II Am the Mother of Seven
Fatherless Children"
A man stepped up to him and said,
"Look here, my friend, next time you go
out you had better get the sign right on
your organ" The grinder must have
guessed what the error was, for. pushing
tho goggles back from his eyes, he
peered quickly up and down the street as
if looking for a policeman. Seeing none,
he leaned over and read the sign.

tered, pushing the goggles over his eyes
and shouldering his instrument to leave.

FRIDAY, JUNE %, 1898
ON A FREE WOOL BASIS.

When the campaign was on last sum-
mer, democratic papers east and west
were voluble and dogmatic in asserting
wool grower. To their own satisfaction
they made it appear that the wool grower
who contended for protection was a
foolish fellow, and that he really needed
a democratic administration and free
wool to make him quite prosperous.
Here is what the Boston Herald said in
its wool report last Friday:
The wool market here has not i'm
proved in the slightest degree from the
week ago. The factors that make the
market dull are not improved. Tariff
agitation and the possibility of reduced
duties on wool unsettle the wooden goods
market, to the extent that manufac-
turers are at a loss as to what they shall
do. The possibilities of free wool also
make it imperative that dealers shall
buy the new clip at figures that will
admit of its being sold on the basis of
free wool, and none of the dealers are
going to buy at any of the prices higher
than the basis of free wool, in so far as
it is possible to know what free wool
basis is.
The Spokane Review evidently believes
the tariff is not the true cause of the de-
preston as the following ridicule com
menting upon the Herald's article
shows:
Now that the market has been reduced
to a free wool basis, as admitted by the
leading tariff reform journal of New Eng
land, why doesn't the band begin to
play and the procession to move? Why
don't the woolen manufacturers freach
out and conquer the markets of the
world" according to democratic ante
election predictions, instead OF refusing
to buy even on a free wool basis, as they
are reported to be doing by the Herald
Why don't the spindles hum and wool
advance in price, as promised by demo
cratic papers who assumed to know all
about the question last fall?

James Mcclure, an old pioneer SOL
dier, residing at Jacksonville, was killed
by boy who had been annoying him
last Monday night. Being aged and
decrepit Mcclure was irritable and err
ratio, and was easily aggravated into
violent outbursts of temper. He was a
miner, and on Monday evening some
boys were around his place and gave
him fancied or real grievance at some
of their acts. Procuring his gun he ran
after the boys, and chased one of them
into the barn threatening to kill him.
The young fellow turned upon him and
shot him, the ball entering the groin.

Testimony OF Surgeons and Scientists
Is to the Contrary.

It is questionable if such Ephenome-
non as instant death is known to the sci
enlist and investigator. Physicians and
surgeons tell us that death by gunshot
is the easiest mode of terminating life !;
vet, rapid as such a mode of taking off
must be, the body has leisure to feel and
the time to reflect, and, on rare occasions,
even to act. On the first attempt of one
of the adherents of the Spanish monarch
to assassinate William, Prince of Orange,
the ball passed through the bones of his
face and brought him to the ground.
In the instant which preceded stupefac-
ton, however, he was able to frame the
notion that the ceiling of the room had
fallen in and crushed him.
The cannon ball that plunged through
the head and tore out the brain of
Charles XII did not prevent him from
seizing his sword hilt. The idea of at
tack and the necessity for defense were
impressed upon his mind by a blow
which we would naturally suppose too
tremendous and instantaneous to leave
the least interval for thought. Another
question in this connection is that of
probable pain. Although numerous in
stances can be cited in support of the
view that the mind acts in cases of So
called instant death, it by no means
follows that the inhiction of a fatal blow
is attended by the least sem blance OF
pain or a single pang of fear or regret.
Unless death results Immediately, how
ever, the pain may be as varied as the
nature of the injuries.

A critical public has observed that
the Montana statue of Justice is bow
legged. The artist says it isn't his
fault, because Ada Rehan was built that
way. Miss Rehan might retort that the
criticism evinces a low conception of
high art, the curve in Miss Justices leg
being significant of the range habits of
Montana, where everybody rides a
broncho, and where everybody has a
curve of the lower limbs.
