L Useful Leg.

In the human body. at least, art never
replace nature with better work. but
when false teeth refuse to ache and
wooden legs save men from drowning
one is tempted to make some exceptions.
An Alabama duck hunter had curious
adventure one day while on the water
in IA skitf. He had lost leg in a rail-
road accident and wore cork substi-
tute. useful for ordinary purposes. but

cept i'll boat
On this occasion, as he was an expert
marksman, he had almost loaded the
skitf with ducks when, in reaching after
a particularly fine bird. he overreached
and upset the boat.
Own went the birds. the gun and the
hunter. and as there was a swift current
at that point TIE boat drifted away be
fore he came to the surface. Being un
able to swim. the hunter clutched wild
ly for support. but found none, and
would certainly have been drowned had
it not been for his cork leg.
1t kept him ahoat. and at first he wa.
overjoyed then he became apprehen

Cling against this for some time h
managed to unstrap the limb and use i

1t was then easy to paddle ashore. an,

What D.ui.,!:Is !. re.

Professor Barton of the Institute OF
Technology gave II half hour talk before
the students of the ChaEncy Hall school

is only within few years that any ez-
tended research has l"en n.ale into the
history Of druGllins. The Investigations
in this state have been conducted largely
by Professor Barton himself. \ drum
lin. as the speaker explained. is a moand
of material projecting upward from ths
surface of the earth toa sufficient height
to be called hill. This mound or hill
is made from loose bits Of earth and
rocks torn from ledges at the time-some
thousands of years aso-when this part
of the earth was covered with sheet oi
ice at least 1900 feet i'll thickness. A,
this vast sheet moved off to the south
ward it carried with it quantities oi
earth and small fragments of rock
which were deposited in valleys or heap
ed into drumlins.
The reason for the depositing Of th'
matter in valleys is an easy one to ex
plain, but how it came to be piled int
hills has never yet been discovered. Th'
professor is at the present time making
this the subject Of q special study. ant
he hopes to solve the mystery before h

The blow SO long feared has fallen
at last. After making one of the
most remarkable fights in the history
of Congress, the friends Of silver in
the Senate We're born down by weight
of numbers. patronage and the mon
led influences that were brought to
bear from the financial centers. The
bill repeating unconditionally the
Sherman law has passed both houses
Of Congress, and has been signed by
the president. The end of the strug-
gle however is not yet In fact it
has just begun. An issue so close
and vital to the people cannot be
crushed or stamped out. 1t will
eventually prevail because it is right.
Those members of both houses of
congress who proved unfaithful to
their trusts will be remembered by
their constituents. Colorado has
reason to feel proud of her represen-
tatives both in the senate and house.
They have all worked unremittingly
for silver. They have made their
influence felt and have reflected
great credit upon their state as well
as themselves.

M. ]. UNDERWOOD.
A Plain Statement Of Facts concer-
ming his Onlce.

The Sparks in its expected roor-
backs makes the statement that Nj.
j. Underwood received the sum OF
1885. 80 for services rendered as
county clerk for the year 1892, and
tries to convey the idea to the people
that the whole amount was paid him
out of the county treasury and came
from the pockets of the taxpayers.
An examination of the records dis
closes the fact that the amount ac-
tually paid Mr.. Underwood and dep
uties by the taxpayers during lS92
was S10475O, as against S21O3.4O for
1891 and S1410.50 for 1890 to H. j.
Gochenoui for the same services and
for the same work, the balance com
ing from fees, recording papers, etc,
taken in at the Office. A comparison
Of these figures is sufficient to prove
that Mr.. Underwood has dealt fairly
| with the taxpayers Ihe amount which
Mr.. Underwood has paid for clerk
hire has been kept within the amount
appropriated by the board, and the
records show that a larger amount OF
work was done in the county clerks
Office during 1892 than for any pre-
vious year. The large amount OF
business necessitated the employ
ment of additional clerks, and to our
certain personal knowledge J. X.
Doughty, A. E. Downer, j. F. Curry
and W. W. Cooper We're employed in
the office, and some of them for a
major part of the year

moved to Iowa in 1858. He was on

in the 9TH Iowa infantry. He served a
little over three years and then re-
enlisted and was transferred TO the

Teller's Dispair.

The guiding hand and mind in the
great contest for silver just closed
has been that OF Senator Teller. Mr..
Teller, in addition to his high quail
tiles as statesman, is one of the best
parliamentarians in the senate This
coupled with his long experience, and
high standing among his colleagues,
has made him the natural leader in
the battle Just closed. How much
his heart was enlisted in the work,
and how bitterly he felt the defeat
when he found that it was inevitable
is shown below. Nothing more pa
thetic was ever uttered in the senate
chamber
''Nobody who hears me tonight
will disagree with me in the statement
that if the men sitting in front of me
had been as ready to concede us some
thing as other men who believed in
repeal on the other side of the cham
Der, this would have been compro-
mise, not a disgraceful and disastrous
defeat, but beneficial to US aad bene-
fetal to all alike.
''If the railroads can't pay the
interest on their bonds, that is not
our fault. But our personal obliga-
tions must be met to the last cent.
To me this is the most terrible mo-
ment of my Legislative life," said
Mr.. Teller. "To me it brings
more fear than any other since en-
tered public life. l fear that we are
entering upon a financial system from
which there is absolutely no escape.
I know there will be no favorable
Legislation for silver until the Amer
lean people are heard from at the
ballot box, and heard from in way
that will COMPEL attention to their
desires.
''M. President, I am not pessi-
mist, 1 never have been, l am not an
optimist. l have never seen disaster
and distress growing out of politics
simply because they did not meet my
approval. / have had faith in the
American people" Here Mr.. Tel
ler's voice choked and tears came to
his eyes. He spoke most impressive
ly, and was accorded the undivided
attention of every Senator and the
large audience In the galleries.
Il have faith in men. / can see the
silver lining in cloud as quickly as
any man living. There neveris cloud
so dark that 1 can not see the coming
light OF. the mountain top. but can
not contemplate this condition CT
things without absolute terror 1t
strikes to my very soul, and l want
to enter this as a warning to the
American people, that if they do net
resist they will enter upon a system
of industrial slavery that will be the
worst known to the human race
