na Rasn,t Recovered Yet.

A Young medical student came to the
South Side TO work recently, and with
him he brought a skeleton to study in
his leisure hours. He hung the skeleton
in the rear office, where it made rather
a frightful looking object. 1t happened
that about the first night a young man
of the firm went to sleep in the Office,
leaving the hideous skeleton standing
beside the bed. Late in the night II
Jranspired that a cat strolled near the
suspended skeleton and started it TO
Gathering its bones and nodding its
head. The young man awoke about this
time, and he gazed upon the skeleton
but once. He was so badly scared that
he has not quite recovered yet.

swept by. Persons noticing the brave
deed held their breaths in suspense.

The celebrated Ground Hog Club OF
Fulton, is in straits. The president,
secretary and other members went for
a hunt a few days ago. They drove a
white horse and a black mule in a big
wagon. The boys in high spirits went
near Warrington. Property owners
told them they were trespassers and
told them to move. They didn't and
pretty soon the president and several
others were looking at their rig from
behind iron bars. The Fulton fellows
realizing that they we're Gagged, offered
to give the mule and horse as security
in lieu of prison, which was granted.
Now they can't get the horse and mule,
and are over in Greene county, Pa,
hoping and waiting for something to
turn up by which they can get back to
Fulton.

The opening Of the Worlds fair has
brought into our country such an assert
ment of flags as our people have never
seen before Uncle Sans dominions are
full of bunting At Chicago national
flags from every corner of the globe
wave from the domes of the White City
of industrial art At New York the for
eign banners stream from ships our sis
ter nations sent us that they might take
part in our great Columbian ceremonial.
The ceremonial is over, but the foreign
ships still linger. The officers want to
see what great republic is like perhaps
In peace and not in war they came to
us, these foreign standards. The Worlds
fair festivities cannot help spreading the
kindly recognition of the brotherhood of
nations. We are all kindred. Perhaps
hereafter our people may not be so mar
rowly and partisanly patriotic when they
see foreign standard unfurled in honor
of some of our national holidays. Certain
it is that during the Columbian celebra-
tions in the two cities the British flag
was allowed to float peacefully from the
windows of private houses. IT'S well.
Perhaps hereafter we shall have learned
good manners and international good
feeling enough even to allow a British
subject to unfurl his own country's flag
in honor of the American Fourth of July.
They are an artistic study; these for
eign flags. There is the beautiful tri-
color of France, our sister republic, with
our own national colors, the red, white
and blue. There are the white cross of
Switzerland; the red, white and black of
the German merchant flag; the eagle of
the German imperial flag Countries
by monarchs have mostly two
1ags-one for merchant ships and COM
mon people, the other for the use of the
king or emperor alone. So it is with
Great Britain, with Austria. with Ger
many, Denmark and Italy. But the
flag that is most beautiful of all is "Old
Glory" our own stars and stripes, and
may it float over the United States Of
America TO the end of the world

Carter HarrisOn's House an Object of In

| The residence of Mayor Carter Harri-
son of Chicago is well known to most
residents of the Worlds fair city and to
not few eminent strangers who have
enjoyed the liberal hospitality dispensed
within its walls. Before the big fair is
over it will probably be known to great
many more, for Mayor Harrison's latch
string is ever on the outside, and any
one with even the slightest claim upon
his courtesy is welcome to the best he
has. The mansion is on the west side
of the city at the junction of Ashland
and jackson boulevards and is an OBJ
ject of great interest to many passersby.
The grounds are spacious and natursl
rather than artificial and trim, and the
house is old fashioned, roomy and COM
Portable. No attempt is made to keep
in line with the ever varying kaleido-
scopic changes of modern fashionable
architecture. The residents there, it is
quite evident, know when they are well
off. They have become attached to what
is familiar by association and do not find
it necessary to stimulate tired emotions
by the novelty of constant change. tits

Carlyle Harris.

Except the Maybrick case in England
the Harris poisoning case is the most
celebrated of this decade. Everything
that the love of mother, the money of
relatives and the ingenuity of the law
could do to save Carlyle Harris was
done. He had every chance that the
courts give for appeal and new trial, but
at the end the conviction that he was
guilty seemed only more firmly fixed in
the minds of judge, jury and the public.
He was a handsome young man, well
known in good social circles in New
York and Brooklyn The charge that
he had murdered his young wife by adj
ministering morphine to her was more
of a shock and blow to his acquaint-
ances than to anybody else except his
devoted mother. They said at first it
could not be possible that this brilliant,
polished young man. with his fine man
ners and courteousness toward men and
women, could have been guilty Of such a
crime. But criminology shows that poi
soners more frequently than otherwise
have such pleasing manners and address
The state of New York spent $40, 900 in
the prosecution of the case. The evil
dence on which he was convicted was
wholly circumstantial, yet it was deemed
sufficient to condemn him. 1t is ghast-
ly comment on the times that in the last
day or two, while the case was in the
hands OF the governor, bets were freely
made on the probability of his sentence
being COMMITTED TO imprisonment for
life.

if one or the other wants to count the

A Washington state parent recently
telegraphed blessing and "come
home" after an clipping sixteen year
old daughter aud her Juvenile husband.
The next thing to do is to set the nine
teen-year-old son-in-law up in business,
aud boss the entire establishment.
Such paternal wisdom is in harmony
with an age which does not believe in
opinions ready made or in the power
of father to crush daughters heart.
We predict all sorts Of success for the
young couple who, while taking mat
tiers into their own hands, managed to
get on the "bllnd side" Of the father

In more respects than one our Worlds
fair is the greatest that ever was. 1t is
the first international exposition in his
tory in which women took active official
part in the management and the first
one in which the work of women has as
sumed such proportions. Expresses and
queens have been warmly interested in
the Woman's building at the fair and
have sent from their countries specimens
Of all the kinds of the distinctive work
of women Thus on broad scale at
tention will be attracted to woman as an
industrial factor. This was the especial
idea of Mrs Bertha Honore Palmer and
her coadjutators. Then, too, there was
the women's own ceremonial opening of
their worlds fair. Not even the presi-
dent was called on for that. The ladies
made their own speeches. The fact that
addresses were made on this occasion by
titled ladies from Spain, Italy, Great
Britain and Russia shows how deeply
the women of all nations are at present
interested in the question of women's
wage earning work. The display at the
fair cannot do otherwise than have a
beneficial influence in bringing up the
pay of women workers

Three substitutes have been proposed
in the event of the repeal Of the Sher-

a different division of the Democracy

free coinage, the Bland bill providing

month, and the repeal of the state bank
tax, 1t is many-horned dilemma.
