Breckinridge's Opponents.

LEXINGTON, May 22.-Mr. Owens
will speak in Lexington Monday
afternoon, June II. This will be his
first appearance here since Breckin-
ridge opened the campaign and plans
are on foot to make it a rousing DEM
onstration. Ovens club today decid.
ed to send invitations to Breckinridge
and Settle to speak at the same meet
ing. A complication has arisen, as
the women of Lexington had been
invited to attend the meeting and
had signified their intention OF turn
ing out in large numbers. They now
say that if Owens and Settle debate
they will gladly attend, but if Brock
inridge accepts the invitation they
will have nothing to do with the mat
ter. 1t is possible the Owens club
will reconsider its action taken today.

BIsMARCK'S WASTE BASKET.
1t Is Morgue for the Devices OF Ambi.
tious Self-Advertisers.

1t Is a MOrgue for the Devices OF Ambi-
tious self-Advertisers.
Every year, as his birthday ap-
proaches, Prince Bismarck receives
scores of kilograms from persons who
request immediate replies. Some of
these dispatches come from men eager
to be received personally at the Fried
richsruhe castle during the celebration.
Others are from newspaper editors who
hope to get reply signed by the old
chancellor, for publication on the
birthday morning. The dispatches end
invariably with the statement that the
answer has been prepaid. Neverthe-
less, they all go into Bismarck's waste
basket, which, like everything else
about the old chancellor, is of heroic
size.
Bismarck's secretary, in speaking of
the waste basket, recently gave a
Vienna journalist some information
which is of special interest to Amer
leans, as from the United States come
most of the kilograms intended for
self advertising purposes. Here is a
dispatch received recently by the
prince from a New York hewspa per,
whose name was withheld:
your Excellency: Ten million Ger
mans listen for your voice, and wish
to know whether you will again un-
dertake the leadership of the empire
founded under your auspices. Ten
million Germans in America wish to
hear from your mouth words of COM
fort as to their native land. Cable an
swer prepaid"
This dispatch was no sooner read
than it went into the waste basket.
The idea of answering it never entered
the head of anybody at the castle. An
Englishman sent this cablegram short
ly afterward:
81, the richest citizen of this town,
have but one unfulflled wish-to stand
before the most famous man of the
century and receive the honor of his
acquaintance. If the fulfllment of my
wish should depend upon my giving
any sum of money to any cause or So
ciety, l beg your excellency to name
the amount and ] will at once deposit
the same, no matter how large it may
be, Cable answer prepaid"
The offer of money was as futile as
the appeal of 'ten million Germans in
America" and it followed the latter
into the waste basket.
After giving several other illustra-
tions of the voracity of the Friedrichs-
ruhe waste basket, the Vienna journal
list thus warns self-advertisers through
out the world against wasting their
money on Bismarck kilograms:
Bismarck has no time nowadays
for prepaid messages of this sort
Friedrichsruhe is practical place. His
tory is still making there, and in the
pauses Head Forester LANCE has his
claims upon the princes time. His

TRANSPORTING BULLION.

Nothing seems more remarkable to

New York Herald, than the utter care.

ly, but he drives slowly and is sufi-
GENTLY armed to prevent any attack.
Then, in addition, walking on the
sidewalk, on one or both sides of the
truck, are quiet men who never attract
attention, who pause when the truck
pauses and move forward when it pro-
ceeds.
This is a guard, not so gorgeously at
tired as the troop of British soldiers
who guard the bank of England or its
messengers, but just as effective in an
emergency.
Gold, in coin or bars, when imported
to this country, is, of course, incased in
small kegs or iron-bound boxes. 1t is
conveyed through the streets in much
the same way; but it's smaller bulk ne
cessitates little extra precaution,
and so, instead of one man, two are
commonly assigned to each dray.
This was the way in which upward
of sixty million dollars was trans
ported through New York during the
period of gold expectation, extending
over few weeks last summer. When
two million dollars or so reached Chi
cago about two dozen men armed with
Winchesters, revolvers and dirk knives
surrounded the vehicles, and with o
great show of determination escorted
the treasure through the streets.
The drivers of the trucks in New
York avoid jams of vehicles as far as
possible, and never permit themselves
to be diverted from their tasks. This
was exemplified in Wall street the
other day. A two-ton coal cart became
stalled at the corner of Broad street.
A policeman sought to assist it, and
endeavo:ed to induce other drivers to
"give the fellow a hitch" as he called
it. Some protested that their own
loads were heavy or their trucks too
light, E something of the kind, and in
the meantime the coal cart remained
motionless.
Finally the policeman, anxious pos
sibly to show his authority, and seeing
an apparently empty truck with a
fine team of sturdy horses approach
ing, ran toward it and made a motion
as though to grasp the horses brides.
The driver made grab at his whip.
"You know how it is yourself" said
the policeman. "Give this fellow a
hitch, will you?"
"Not with this load on" replied the
driver, touching his horses, and the by
ISLANDERS all smiled, for the body of the
truck was laHNn down with heavy
load of silver for the assay office.

a PRETTY GOOD JOKE
Charlie Culbsrson's Telling Judge Reagan
That He Can Run For Governor.

Charlie Culberson's Telling Judge Reagan
That He Can Run For Governor.
"Well, now, if this Amt rich," said
a gentleman yesterday. "Here
Charley Culberson goes and tells
Judge Reagan in an open letter that
he can run for the governorship if he
wants to, and that he (Charlie) won't
think hard of him for doing it. Well,
that's good, sure. 1t reminds me
very strongly of what everybody has
seen time and again i'll his life. A boy
tells his dog to come and lay down by
him and the dog goes over in the
corner and stands up, and then the
boy says "s.ay there, that's where
intended you to go all the time any
hoW.n
The parallel is certainly good one,
and no mistake. When Charlie Gull
berson went to Dallas county with
that speech of his he made straight
out and out straddle for no other
purpose ir the world than to keep
Judge Reagan from running for the
governorship. He has been trying
hdIu oNoI 5luC0 W hOep GhO JuNSO
over the line and now that he sees the
judge intends to run anyway, why
torsooth he says, "Come on. Judge,
and run; won't think hard OF you
for doing it," Well, that is certainly
good, but then, on the other hand
that letter of Culberson's goes to prove
that there was something going on
between him and the judge at some
time with leference 10 the gubernato
rial race. 1t either means that a
dicker was made between the two for
the purpose of keeping judge Reagan
out of the race or it means that Gull
berson is trying to make capital out OF
nothing.
1t may mean that Culber-
son promised Judge Reagan to run
on his silver platform and failed to do
so, and that the Judge getting put out
at Culberson's actions has written
him sub rosa that he will have to
hustle by himself, as he has failed to
comply with the requirements of the
judges silver platform. 1t is needless
to add that the judge will from now on
manage that silver platform from the
political stump; and that from there
he will run into the convention all
heated up in his aspirations for the
governorship. To put it mildly, how
ever, Culberson giving the judge carte
blanche to run is the richest joke of
the season.

majority of the farmers will agree with

regard to tile, my experience is that
any tiled land, whether slough or drv
ground, can be travelled anv time of
the year. rain or not. On my farm, be-
lore put in any tile, there was some
wet land running almost direct to
Wadena. That strip of land was never
