HER MORNING EXERCISES

Every Woman Anxious to Be Well
Should Follow Them.
A New York girl who pays So each for
music lessons thirty minutes long volun-
teers this interesting information, ,le-
ceived from the famous old impressario
who teaches her:
ST never eat water biscuits, such as are
served with cheese, nor any sort of hard
candy, because they are bad for the teeth;
if they don't break them they are apt to
loosen their filings. One or a dozen bis
cults or pound of rock candy may not
do any harm, but a taste for that sort of
thing is bad to acquire. People who sing
or read or talk great deal, my professor
tells us, ought to take the utmost care Of
their mouths.
Every morning take fifteen minutes
exercise. The programme will amuse
you. First, | exercise eight minutes
with pair of one-pound dumb-bells;
then / take plunge bath and breath
ing exercise at the same time. While
am in the tub L give my lungs as well as
my body bath, and do it all in seven
minutes every day in the week. This
little morning exercise has not only
helped me in my vocal work, but 1t has
kept me from taking cold in bad weather.
Easy fitting shoes have been the subject
of much consideration. One day | could
not sing, although | had my lesson per-
fectly the day before. Suddenly my
teacher left the room, then the accom-
panist was called out, and the next min
ute maid came in, bringing a pair of
Indian moccasins, and asked if l would
not let her put them on me. / did, and
when the professor came back, frowning
as omniously as though he knew nothing
of the scheme, | sang the exercise with
great credit to myself. After that 1
never went to take a lesson wearing tight
shoes. More than that, l never wear
them. When l buy shoes l have them
pulled over a big last and left there two
days, and when they come home they are
as comfortable as old shoes"

Something OF a Catfish.

While J. Kyes was fishing yesterday a
few miles up the river, near the Monu-
ment ranch, he caught one of the biggest
catfish yet taken in this vicinity. 1t
measured two feet in length, and its head
was about six inches broad.
The fish had not been weighed, but
looked as if it would tip the scales at six
or seven pounds. 1t was good-natured
looking critter, having a very open"
countenance, and seemed to wear broad
smile. even in death.

Facetious Young Man Turned Down.

He was a very facetious young man,
and he was showing bright young
woman, upon whom his affections were
lavishing themselves, through a chair
factory that was the principal and most
interesting industry of the town. The
courteous attendant explained every
thing to them, when the facetious young
man, desirous of showing how facetious
he could be when he tried, pointing to a
cane -bottomed chair, asked
''And where do you get the holes ?n
"Oh, we buy those from the Indians ?n
replied the attendant; and he was much
pleased, as the facetious young man was
not. to hear the young woman giggle.
"Ah. indeed?" said the funny man,
superciliously. ''Of what Indians, pray?u
"Diggers," replied the attendant meek

ILLICIT OPIUM.

A Dope Kitchen Raided by the Police

Last night Chief of Police Rodgers and
Officers Dole and Burke raided an under

opium scraped from pipes was cooked
over and made merchantable article.
This article is sold to the more impecuni-
ous class of smokers, as it is not stamped
and is inferior in quality to the original

them by surprise Burke leaped off the

then, and the officers took them in with

crime of 1873 and restore silver to an
equality with gold before the law;
would this have any influence in
maintaining its parity with gold?
The late census reports show that
for over two hundred years prior to
1873 the two metals were maintained
at parity as money metals regard
less of the varied proportions of their
production; and that not until the
laws made a discrimination against
silver was there any difficulty about
the parity of the two metals.
It is not supposed that anything
that can be said or done will prevent
this additional contemplated crime
against humanity. The issue ofbonds
may be delayed but they will be is
sued and another interest bearing
debt will be fastened upon the people.
It undoubtedly requires just this kind

patriotism is the same now that it
was during the war, and there never

Cyclone Sufferers Appeal.

Last week the Indian Territory was
visited by several destructive cyclones,
the worst of which was at Norman, Okla
homa. From that place the following
appeal has been made to the public
through the press:
"Two terrible cyclones visited this To-
cslity Tuesday evening, April 25. No
one can describe the awful scenes that
have been witnessed to-day by hundreds
of our citizens. Whole families were
killed outright. Twenty-Five or thirty
are known to be- dead, and over 100
wounded within few miles along it's
pathway. Reports are still coming in
from points farther away, telling OF the
number of dead and wounded. No ac-
count is taken CT loss of live stock and
other property destroyed. Dead animals
are lying everywhere. Help is needed
and needed now. Our people are doing
all they can to relieve suffering, but can
do but little compared with actual wants.
Anything in the way Of donations will
be thankfully received and will be judi
ciously distributed to the needy ones.

list, who does not recognize the
hypocrisy of republican and demo-
cratic promises to provide protection
to the people against the extortions
of corporations and combines? Ifso,
he is more to be pittied than blamed.
What a dismal farce that law is! It
was never intended to benefit the
people. There is nothing in it but a
little cheap buncombe, and that was
all exhausted long ago. The remedy
lies in the control of public utilities
by the people In their own interest, in
fraternslism, and not in the system of
paternalism that now prevails. When
all these interests have become con-
solidated ready to be directed from a
single head, the people must take
possession of that head, and direct
the business in their own interest

Resolutions From Labette County,

ask you to publish the enclosed resolu-
tions, and oblige the members OF Mount
Zion Alliance, No. 226:
WHEREAS, The county superintendent
of public instruction of Lsbette county,
and others, saw fit to have bill passed
by the state legislature Of this state
creating q high school at AltsmoIt,
thereby denying the right Of petition or
remonstrsnce, contrary to article 2, 18th
section Of the constitution OF the state Of
Kansas, which says: "All laws Of gen.
ersl nature shall have q uniform opera
tion throughout the state; and in all
cases where q general law can be made
applicable, no special law shall be
enacted" and in direct contravention Of
the fundamental principles Of the Farm
er's Alliance. Therefore belt
ResoIued, By Mount Zion Alliance, No.

special legislation in regard to said
county high school, and ask the co-opers-
tion of all of the sub-AlliRnces of this
county to keep our folks in the middle
Of the road.

The fusionists are making great capital,
or think they are, over the fact that the
republicans rejoice in Kansas when the stall
warts gain a victory They do rejoice,
certainly, and they will be greatly pleased
if the fusionists are turned down and get
nothing. They like to see honesty rewarded
and shystering repudisted. Jour-
nal, April Is.
Certainly, the stalwarts fused with
republicans instead of Populists, and
that variety of fusion is much more
consistent in republican eyes than the
other kind. Why shouldn't republi-
cans rejoice when stalwarts win a
victory? 1t is republican victory
and they have right to rejoice In it.

WALL STREET DEMANDS BONDS.


The dispatches announce that
"Wall street bankers are practically
q unit in favor of the issue of bonds"
And did not everybody know this
before the dispatches made formal
announcement of it? Did not every
we'll informed person know that the
combined power of Wall street has
for months been directed to the Gre
alton of just such a condition as now
exists In order that this cry for more
bonds might be listened to at the
treasury department? A dispatch OF
April %, says:
The most important event Of the day was
long conference between the bank presi-
dents and Assistant Treasurer Conrad N.
Jordan at the clearing house this afternoon.
The meeting lasted two hours. After it was
over it was learned from one who was pres
emit that Henry w. Cannon, president Of the
Chase National bank, had had a conference
with Mr.. Jordan last night and had gone to
Washington as an emlssary from the bank
ers here TO President Cleveland.
Who doubts the final result of these
conferences? The demand for bonds
will be temporarily resisted in order
to exhibit an apparent reluctance on
the part of the administration to
yield to a measure so adverse to the
will of the people. The offer of gold
by the banks with the seeming good
intent of aiding the government to
tide over an emergency, Is part of the
scheme, in order to make the final
surrender appear in the light of a
necessity. This dispatch continues:
At the meeting the financial situation was
thoroughly discussed and it was decided
that the parity Of gold and silver must be
maintained and that the government must
meet its obligations in gold at any cost.
II was practically decided among the
bankers that they would advance no more
gold to the treasurer without an invitation,
and even then not large amount without
a bond issue.
Here is the old hypocriticsl cry of
the necessity of maintaining the par
ity of gold and silver, and the main
tensnee of gold payments is assumed
as the only method by which such
parity can be assured. Do those gold
bug aristocrats still entertain the
notion that they can continue to blind
the eyes of the people with chaffi

sisslppi congress last week, told how
j. W. Ady and one A. W. Stubbs

he wanted it understood that he was
