1t has passed into proverb that men
can become too great to be president. In
proof Of it stand the names of Webster.
Clay and Seward, and to the magnificent
list may properly be added the name of
Blaine. To the honor of the Maine states
man be it said that whatever the disap-
pointments of himself and friends, how
ever unfairly treated he appeared to be
by the party FOR which he had done so
much, he never faltered in his loyalty to
his party and his country, and where the
hardest work was being done and the
grandest achievements attained, there
was Blaine surrounded by his unwaver-
ing friends. He gave his strength, his
life to his country. They whom he op-
posed respected him. Admiration of the
man was not circumscribed by party
lines. For many years his magical name
has been saluted as that of the greatest
living American, and his death will be
recognized as an unreasonable national
loss.-Cincinnati Commercial.

An Adventure With a Burglar.

Colonel John Sobieski the Prohibition
candidate for governor of Missouri, who
was delegate to the national Prohibi-
ton convention, had a most thrilling ad-
venture with burglars on his way to this
city.
He had stopped to deliver several lee
lures at Magnolia, little village in
Illinois. He retired at his hotel, the
Magnolia House, shortly before mid
night. He was aroused about 2:30 O'Clock
In the morning by hearing the sound Of
voices In tile hall. He listened for mo-
ment and concluded that 1t was the land.
lord calling some of the other guests to
catch train. With that he turned over
and fell asleep again. Shortly after that
he was startled from his slumber by a
bang at his door, which fell in with a
crash. He leaped out of bed, but was
confronted by a masked man pointing a
revolver at him. He held a lantern In
his hand and commanded the colonel to
get back into bed and put his head under
the bedsheet.
Altogether the gang got about $3.50
and five gold watches, and then made its
escape, threatening the victims with
death in case of pursuit.
Colonel Sobiesh says that when ht
had his head under the sheet he asked
the burglar to kindly point the pistol out
Of the window. The burglar laughed
and the colonel thought it might be well
to temporize with him and said: "Now
that you have got my watch and money
perhaps you will oblige me by telling mt
your politics. Are you ProhibitionistT
mo, and if l thought you were I'd Eli
you with bullets" replied the guard.
"Oh, no" said the colonel. I'm nc
Prohibitionist. I'll have a drink with
you If you will get bottle somewhere. y
"Not now," said the burglar. "Some
other time when we are not busy" And
with that the conversation ceased.-Cin-
cinnati Enquirer.

1t is reported that near Curlizio
Springs, Tex, an oval topped mound,
covered wi. petrifed human skulls,
has been discovered. The mound is cir
cular in form and about 100 feet high
and on one side is joined to short range
of hills of about the same height. On
the summit and for some distance down
the sloping side it is covered with what
appear to be smooth, spherical bones,
which upon close examination prove to
be, it is said, petrified human skulls dis
torted into grotesque shapes.
1t is further stated that by removing
the loose dirt and sand from the orifces
of the face the unmistakable human
countenance is revealed. Bones of other
classes are also said to be found there,
and from all appearances the whole
mound is formed of human skulls

During the last campaign Delegate
John T. Caine of Utah went over into
Wyoming to preach Democracy to the
people. There are large number of
emigrants from Utah in the latter state,
and Mr.. Caine thought it would be good
politics to talk to them. While thus cam
paigning he met Senator Warren, who
gently reproved him for trespassing.
"f you come over here again, 1 will
have to kill you," said Senator Warren
laughingly.
"That's all right" replied the dele

the m&tter of killing the Gaines have

The heavy snow and wind storm that pre-

last week.
