The Ways anA Means Committee.

The ways and means commit
tee of the House of Representa-
tives, as made up by speaker
Crisp, will be regarded with great
satisfaction by all friends of tariff
reform. So far rs the Democrat
ic contingent is concerned, nearly
every member has q record of de-
vOtion to that cause. Mr.. Wilson
who, as the chairman. becomes the
leader of his party on the floor, is
a good debaier and a most elo-
queDt advocate. He presided
over the national Democratic con-
vention which nominated Mr..
Cleveland at Chicago last summer.
He has always been one Of the
ablest and most jealous propo-
gandists Of the tariff reform doc
tnne, aud a year ago made a tour
or.the country, organizing Demo
cratic clabs of young men wher-
ever he went. He has done per.
sonally, more than any other mem
Der of Congress to awsken public
sentiment with regard TO the in
justice of tariff taxation. He will
be supported on the committee by
men equally as ardent, and there

Crisp has, in the choice of mem

in 1890 and 1892. One may nov

"Cone, yev, Old Csdser.s

Gen. Taylor was little careless
in bis dress and never wore q
complete regulation suit except
when imperative duty compelled.
He often had on some homespun
material and q broad brinmed
straw hat. One evening at New
nausville he was sitting in the
tavern Office with three brother
officers. all veterans of the pral-
ries and frontiers, and all roughly
dressed. On the arrival of the
eastern stage a sprightly young
officer, fresh from the military
academy, fine in dress and a little
overconfident in manner appeared
upon the scene.
He glanced supercilionsly at the
rustic looking men who sat talking
and smoking and then addressed
the eldest, Colonel Taylor, for in
for nation.
.Well, old man. how are the In.
dams now ~

consid erable trouble" replied Col
onel Taylor.
sOh, they are, are they" I" re-
marked the officer, with assurance
"We, we'll fix matters soon. I'm
an army officer and on my way te
take a hand in the war. How art

"Very fair, sir, / understand
where the Indians can keep quiet
And SO on with pert questions
| from the youthful officer and very
respectful answers from Taylor
who sturdily kept up the imputed
character without betrayal. Al
last the young man grew generous
"COme now, old cOdger, you ant
your neighbors take something
have y drink with me-"
The officers rose and solemnly
pledged the bold young warrior.

him and said reflectively:

The a5ashed young man asked
some experienced officers what he
should do. They laughingly said
"Ob, with Colonel Taylor simply
nothing"
after a day or so the colonel
called up the young officer, and
when he attempted an apology fol
his rudness said:
"My young friend, you have had
q good lesson. Let me give you
a piece of advice that l think may
be Of immense advantage to you

A Natural Mill Site.

A mill site which is just now at
tracing a good deal of attention is
that owned by the Granite Mining
company and which lies on Harley
creek not far from its mouth. The
tract embraces a flat containing
probably lei acres with sloping hills
on either side and an abundant wa
ter supply at hand. This ground is
owned by a company of which T. B.
Gregg, Louis Bergeron, Jos. Bru-
lotte and NJ. f. Boland are i%ncorpor-
ators and so far as reported as yet
sole n From report we hear
that they agree to give outright less
half the cost of patenting, such part
of this as will be required to operate
a quartz mill and will reliquish all
right and title in favor Of the party
who will build and run such mill.
This is a good location for the Mel
hart, Carpenter and Snow creek
pres and a down hill haul from those
places for all the ore handled. 1t is
safe to say that this or the Spider
will doubtless be chosen as the site
for the new quartz mill.

Rough, but Kind.

Immediately after l had left the
emigrant train l I'm told that !
looked like a man at deaths door, 50
much had the long journey shaken
me. l sat at the end of the car, and
the catch being broken and myself
sick and feverish, ! had to hold the
door open with my foot for the sake
of air.
In this attitude Ey leg barred the
newsboy from his box of merchan-
disc. l made haste to let him pass
when l observed that he was coming,
but l was busy with a book, and so,
once or twice. he came upon me un-
awares.
On these occasions he most rudely
struck my foot aside, and though
myself apologized, as if to show him
the way, he answered me never a
word. chafed furiously, and fear
the next time it would have come ia
words; but suddenly l felt a touch
upon my shoulder, and a large.
juicy pear was put into my hand.
It was the newsboy, who had OBJ
served that l was looking ill, and sc
made me this present out of a tender
heart.
For the rest of the journey was
petted like a sick child; he lent me
newspapers, thus depriving himself
of his legitimate profit on their sale,
and came repeatedly to sit by me
and cheer me up. Across the

is tho Husband to HlameY

l do not agree with so many who
pronounce the genial, pleasant hus-
band myth. He is not, but he is
sadly in the minority. Without be-
ing partial to my sex l believe it is
generally the fault of the husband
that the wife lacks animation when
in his presence. A woman to be
agreeable, charming, delightful must
have an incentive, and there is no
greater one to be found than the in
nate feeling that the person with
whom you are thrown is waiting
anxiously for your opinion and
watches your every expression and
gesture with loving glances.
Why, l have known the harshest
voice and most abrupt mannerisms
to soften and refine under such tute-
lage. Lowell 1t is all powerful-a
woman needs it.; must have it to
grow and develop. What does she
care about politics if she feels that an
expressed opinion is likely to subject
her to ridicule9 What interest is she
going to take in the current events or
| the day when she must needs 60 away
from home to discuss them? Strang-
est of all strange things, once upon a
time this woman's word was law,
and the man who does not now care
a ha'penny what she thinks, in days
gone by hung upon her words as If
they we're SO many pearls OF wisdom.
Undoubtedly the women have a
right to complain, for mans indif-
ference to the woman whom he has
chosen for a life partner is made to
furnish a background for two-thirds
of the word pictures drawn. The
stage seems to revel at the fact. I'm
wholesome jests r tossed about in
ARREST fashion. Poetry and prose
have many a fling at tho luckless
being who has wagered her all in
the chance game Of matrimony only
to lose. -Cincinnati Commercial Ga.

hind he should yawn, 'twould be bet
ter to so we'll disguise it as not to be
seen. But having felt all the relief
one can feel from having a good
old yawn," and having been OBJ
served by his hostess, then he
should, with all the fortitude born
of an emergency, yank himself from
the too comfortable divan and re-
solve himself by all the gods not to
yawn again. Not having done so,
perhaps the aforesaid charming
young hostess would conclude she
had made a greater success at enter
tanning him. -Galveston News.
