A remarkably funny story was told
here by Dir. Charles OReilly, who re-
Gently lectured at Memorial hall be-
fore the Irish Nationalist, says the
St. Louis Republic. The lecturer said
that about two years ago an old farmer
living in the backwoods of Michigan
suffered the loss of his wife, a most
amiable and respectable woman. Not
withstanding the age of the widower,
who was above seventy, he married
a young and giddy girl about a month
later. The neighbors, I'LL of whom had
great respect for his departed better
half, and also himself up to this point,
! became very indignant. SO the night
of the wedding festivities they gathered
from all points-about 100 in number.
They carried tin pans, tin kettles, and
horns. and at 8 o'clock there com
menced such a din as was never heard
before. The old MAJ stood it Is long
as possible, but finally he threw the
door open and, waving his hand for
silence, said: Il think that you folks
would not make such a racket around
here as soon as there nae been a funer-

1ae Co, the password.

Ex:-This happened in a little town in
southern Illinois not many days ago. 1t
is in q section where the Farmers al
lance is strong, and a lodge Of that
organization exists in that town.
They meet Monday nights. There is
only one lodge room in the town, and
Tuesday night it is occupied by the A. O.
U. W. The president of the sub-alliance
came to town n Tuesday. He had visit
ed the town alliance. and when he saw
the lights in the lodge room he concluded
he would go over and see the brethren.
He gave a knock On the outer door. &
The wicket was raised and an ear was
placed at it to hear the password. 81
plow-I hoe-I spade" whispered the al
lance man. The ear was replaced by an
eve, and in turn gave place to q mouth,
which whispered. in reply: "The HI
you do" and the wicket dropped with d
bang. The indignant farmer shortly
afterward met q brother" to whom he
told his tale of woe. "Why, dad blame

They will probably have to come out and

o-n;o.crop -conc1;tons,

Tho corn is being rapidly matured by
the hot, dry weather, and cutting is we'll
advanced over nearly all counties. On
account Of the premature ripcning and
the effects OF the droutll, the yield will
be inferior and short. Little blowing
has been done, and no great amount of
wheat sown, owing to the dry and dusty
condition Of the ground. The farmers
are generally waiting for rain to begin
their seeding, and unless it comes soon
the acreage will be greatly reduced.
Pastures are dead and dried up, only a
few localities reporting any improvement
in their condition. Potatoes being dug
give a poor yield. Peaches are plenty,
but small and inferior. PLUME and
ounces are plentiful in localities. Stock
water is scare and stock is being fed
generally.

In view OF tho enterprise shown by
American railway companies in making
tests in regard to securing the most Of
ncicnt, sale and agreeable lighting OF
railway cars much interest attaches to
the announcement that the French
railway, the Chamin dc Fur du Nord,
will shortly introduce electric lighting
on its So Don cars, sleeping and toilet
cars of the first, second and third class.
The company has decided after long
trials on isolated carriages, TO expori-
ment on d large scale. The current Is
obtained from storage batteries, sup
plying lamps OF six. eight and ten can
dlc-poWsr, according to the cars. The
OF two, arc very portable. Eight, of
those double cells are suspended be-
meath the frame of the car, where they
are accessible from the steps and clos
ing in by doors. The whole OF the cells,
together with their carriers. weigh 1851
pounds. Thirty-volt lamps are used,
of ten candle-powor for 1rst-class cars,
eight candle-power for second and six
oandle-power for third class and lava
tories OF oil classes, SO that a good
light is provided throughout. The
lamps are carried by q hardwood cylin.
der, carrying lamp socket and reflec.
tor, the latter being very white enam-
eled iron. This apparatus is slipped
into the lantern, taking the place Of
the oil lamp. Two switches are fixed
In q little box at either end of the cor,
80 that tho lamps can be lighted or ex-
tinguished from the outside. The con-
neotions are SO arranged that the bat
teries can be charged without taking
them out Of the compartments. The
cables, which are made specially strong
to stand the wear and tear, are run
along the roof and held In place by
solderei inc clips. ono great advan-
tage Of this method is that. should at any
moment the oil lamps be REQUIRED, all
that is necessary is to open thu lantern,
take out the elec,ric lamp with socket,
and slip the oil lamp into the same
place.

A Turk in,Midway at the worlds fair
came near going to the Turkish heaven
via the gasoline route a few days ago.
He bad been sitting on some fresh paint
and was told that the American gasoline
would remove the stuff. Those who have
been to the worlds fair know that a
Turks trousers resemble a pair of dirty
pillow cases tied together and fastened
at the knee. The seat of tho average
Turkish trousers contains enough ma
terial to make a balloon, and it took
about a quart of gasoline to remove the
paint. Once the job was complete the
reader Of the koran heaved a sigh of re-
lief, rolled a cigarette and struck a match
after the American fashion. The next
moment the denizens OF the Turkish
village were startled by a series Of wild
Selis and a vision of something re-
sembiing q yaTigated colored comet with
the usual fiery tail accompaniment. An
alarm was turned in and they finally got
the Turk put out.

DR.. j.. C. Aver & Co., manufacturers of
the celebrated Aver remedies, are with
out exception the incest foreign adyer-
tisers to do business with whom the
GRAPHIC has come in contact. Not only
are they very prompt with their settle
ments, but if there are any omissions or
wrong insertions to be maze good the
remittance comes right along just the
same, accompanied with a list OF
omissions, etc, implying, of course, a re-
quest that they be made good-which the
firm always gets-in this paper at least.
Their method of doing business is in de-
cided contrast to some concerns that try
to "work" the newspapers for two In
sertions for every n they pay for and
then hold back the money till actually
compelled to fork 1t over. It is needless
TO say that DR.. j. c. Aver & Co., are
entitled to the very best treatment that
the newspapers can give them.

q dull perception indeed that Goes not

see 1t on every hand-tn literature,

The trend is towards the realistic and

something new every day, and all pros
oincts are invaded to obtain 1t. Moth.
ing is too sacred. The down ward evo.
luton has seized our literature-it must
be swift, short and spicy in plot. 1t
must be a craving for the sensual and
the luxurious. The stage has joined in
the mad race. French plays are called
for; something suggestive OF the i'm
moral. People want to go just as near
the verge Of moral degradation as they
can and draw back unsoiled, to laugh at
their own daring. The press has fol-
mirror this fast life in the c!earest and

Instinct now see the way to success and
pander to this craving. The world shall
have everything for money. and its
every vice shall be Landed so thattt pays
for 1t and makes a ready market. The
churches and homes are much moro
luxurious than religious. People won't
do anything unless they q do it with
out effort. Society finds pleasure In
discussing with grace and ieweled
language subjects that between man

be considered immoral, and, as such,

The Official Paper Of BluIe Count,
senator ZONES, stor,

So
Senator Sherman recently told the
senate and the country that the act
which bears his name was passed to pre-
vent the passage of a free coinage bill.
But Senator Jones of Nevada tells a diff
ferent story. In conversation with a
group of senators, about q week since,
he said: "They were all sitting around
in the conference room when ! came in
wlth.my ultimatum. which was $4,500,0OO
a month. oh, if that's it, said Mr..
Walker, OF Massachusetts, we might as
we'll go. That ends it. 1t is all over
Mr.. Walker started toward the door, but
before he had gone far l said to him:
Perhaps you republicans. and you. Mr..
Walker, will be interested in what l am
going to say. Iam..sure that Mr.. Sher-
man will be interested and I..gness all of
you will With that MIR. Walker came
back, but did not take a chair. I con-
tinued: "Now, l want to tell you gentle
men that the Mckinley bill will be in
the senate in a very short time. If you
reject our ultImatum on the silver
proposition, the silver men in the senate
will move the free coinage bill as all
amendment to the Mckinley bill and
there are s.enough democrats who will
vote with us to carry it. Now, after that
amendment is adopted in the senate all
the democrats will vote against the Nc
kinley bill because it is a protective
measure. and the western protectionlsts
in the senate will vote against 1t because
it contains free silver. The free silver
republicans in the senate will! be the
only men who will vote for it, and being
protectionists, they will be the only con.
sistent men in the senate being for
protection and for free coinage of silver.
When l got through they were all listen.
ing to me, and before the conference
hroke up the silver purchase law, known
rs the Sherman act, was agreed to-" Sc
The Sherman act was not a compromise
to prevent free coinage, but a compromise
to save the Mckinley bill.

The mad. wild, git there Eli scramble
for the Cherokee strip last Saturday was
one of the greatest sights this country
ever saw. Over 100000 people had lined
the border for weeks, suffering every
priyation imaginable. Water was 10
cents a glass, bread so cents a loaf, and
everything in proportion. To add to the
misery Of the boomers, the thermometers
stood near the hundred mark for days
and a bIistering hot wind blew the dust
in clouds. All prospective squatters
were obliged to register at government
booths and obtain certificates. Thous-
ands stood in line for hours, others
dropped out from sun exhaustion. When
the signal gun was fired many were kill
ed and injured in the scramble that
followed. By nightfall the strip had an
estimated population OF 100000. Next
day the exodus began. 10 the thousands
who were unable to obtain land on town
lots were added as many more who tutn-
ed back In disgust after seeing the
country. The whole country is as dry as
a bone. There is neither grass or water.
Before spring comes thousands will suf-
fer want. What fools these mortals be!
In South Dakota lie thousands of fertile
acres-not to be given away exactly, to
be sure-but to be had with less cash
outlay than will be required to possess a
home in the Cherokee strip. Here are
schools and churches and allthe comforts
and advantages Of ten years or more OF
settlement. If the 100000 fanatics who
invaded the sandy wastes of the Indian
Territory live this century out they will
sigh for the beautiful South Dakota lands
that might have been their own.
