are bending all their energies to accom-
Plish that object. 1t is given out at the
headquarters Of the republican congress
sional committee in Washington that Mr..
Wilson will be defeated, but as that

very little weight is attached to what it
says
Senator Faulkner, the chairman of the
democratic congressional COMMITTEES,
says there is only one thing that can de-
feat Mr.. Wilson, and that is the expvn-
diture of many thousands of dollars on
the day of the election and the day before.
Owing to the absence of a registration
law in West Virginia, it is a comparatively
easy matter to colonize voters in that
state. If the republicans adopt the colo
nization scheme on large scale they
may defeat Mr.. Wilson. They certainly
cannot do so by fair means.
The district is a close one. Mr. Wilson
carried it at the last election by pIu-
rality Of less than 100. He is more pop
ular now than he was then, however, and
II the election is a fair one he will be

Carmen Svlva,n Heart

Here is pretty little story about Car
men sylvia: A few years ago when she
was in the zenith of her popularity and
health she visited a small village school
mcog, and asked permission to put the
children through their PAGES" The
schoolmstress was highly delighted Al
though she was unaware of the high rank
appearance that the latter was of no com
mon order The children did their mis-
tresS credit, answering with great promp-
titude all the simple questions the queen
put to them
Just before leaving the queen noticed
one little tot in a corner of the room
with her tangled head of hair bent over
some book. The child was so deeply en-
crossed in her reading that she took no
The queen asked the reacon of her silence;
was she deaf or otherwise afflicted! ION,
no, was the answer, but she is stupid
and never attends to her studies but
Selzes every opportunity to read story

to the little reader, and putting her hand
on the curly head, asked gently what the
child was reading, and the latter held
up the book to the strange lady 1t was
Sylvia. And do you like these tales -
asked their author. Like them madam ?
Oh, I love them
And Carmen Sylvia took the child in her
arms, kissed the little flushed face, and
departed. About a week afterward the
child'S aunt-for the little maiden was
an orphan-receiyed a letter from the
queen offering to educate and bring UD
the child. The offer was gratefully and

in the Lewiston Young Mems Christian
Association jumped up and offered his
seat. The lady bowed and told lady
back of her to sit. Then several gentle
men proffered her seats, but she de-
clined them all with a sweet smile After

An Eel Story.

Leighton Kellogg and Harry BE Fee Of
Jaques creek are the heroes Of an al
venture, which is ct once interesting and
peculiar, says the Rochester Democrat
Both men live on the banks OF Jaques
creek, and employ their leisure moments
IN nshing. Last Monday KELLOGG and De
Foe armed themselves with hook and
rowboat.
They caught a large string Of perch
and such other small fish as abound in
the waters Of JaQues creek, when some
thing caught hold Of Keliogg's line which
ne knew was not a perch. The first init
nation which kellogg received Of the
presence of something on the other end
OF MS line was vigorous pull on the line,
nearly throwing him out of the boat. He
held TO the pole, and had hardly succeed
ed IN bracirg against the seat in front,
When another pull at the pole dragged
MIN from his seat to the bottom of the
boat, face down. His friend jumped up,
thinking that Kellogg's hook had become
entangled in a pushing
he, too, tok hold of the pole. Another
pull on the pole and Kellogg was partly
out of the boat. De Foe was at his side.
Then they pulled together. Slowly they
worked their way back into the boat. AT
last they were back upon their seats both
men out of breath from their exertions.
me load on the end of the line seemed
10 grow lighter. One vigorous yank on
the pole brought the weight out of the
water Another yank deposited it in the
boat at the feet of Kellogg and De Foe,
Moses it's a snake, exclaimed Kel-
logg. 1t certainly looked very much like
a snake, but it was not. 1t was a large eel.
1t was fully five feet long and its body
was very large. The eel did not remain
quiet after reaching the bottom of the
boat, but crawling up to Kellogg, rubbed
It's Shiny head against his foot. Then
peering into his frightened face, it crawl
ed up into his lap. Kellogg was too ter
rtfed to move, and with bIanched cheeks
and bullying eyes awaited developments.
The next antic of the eel was to coolly
insert its reDulsive head into Kellogg's
pocket, extract a large red handkerchief
therefrom, and coolly wiped the dampness
from it's face Then, reaching its head
upward, it showed the kerchief down Kel-
logg's neck.
Fixing its teeth firmly in Kellogg's col
lar, which was scarcely whittier than his
face. it tore the collar from his shirt, and
sliding down TO the bottom of the boat
again, quietly made luncheon of the
collar. The fish lines by this time had
become entangled in Kellogg's leg, and
the eel, apparently tired of his day off
WigSled back into the water, taking KEEL
logg with him. De Foe caught hold of the
line, and pulling kellogg to the boats
edge, cut the line, thereby Kidding himself
OF the large and vicious sea monster and
saving his friends life. Kellogg was
nearly dead when brought back to the
boat, but his friend revived him Both
men declare it to be the adventure of their
lives.

raubeneok's wild Talk.

PoPulist Taubeneck, chairman Of ma
tional committee Of the pepulist party. is
making wild predictions as TO what the
populists are going to do in the way OF
electing members Of the next House Of
Representatives. His talk is 50 wild that
he is making himself ridiculous. He pre-
tends that the populists viii have a ma
jority of the next House. II may be that
he believes what he says, for he is suf-
1cientIy reckless to believe almost any
thing.
One sf his statements is that no west
ern state beyond the Mississippi river,
with the single exception of Iowa, will
ever again cast an electoral vote for a
republican presidential candidate. In
support of his claim that the populists
are making surprising gains, he states
that two years ago. in Georgia, the popu-
lists polled only 1900 votes and that this
year they polled $4,000 votes, a gain he
claims of 120 per cent.
Mr.. Taubeneck mixes the figures badly.
Two years ago Mr.. Peek, the populist can
didate for governor, received nearly g.
900 votes and Judge Hines this year re-
ceived nearly $1,000, but in both years the
populists received assistance from the re-
publicans, ana this year they got all the
republican votes that were cast, and
many thousands were cast.
Mr.. Taubeneck is going to be disap-
pointed. If he will look at the democratic
vote cast for Mr.. Cleveland in this state
two years ago. and that cast for the can
didato on the democrat who received the
highest vote this year, he will see that
the populists in this state are not max
ing encouraging Roadway against the
democracy. And it is doubtful if they are
making Roadway in any other state. They
thrive on hard times. With the return of
prosperity the populist party will dwindle
until it finally disappears.
