IT Is q fact. as stated by Mr Will
 son in his London banquet speech,
 that free Government is the most
 difficult, and judging from the worlds experience, the most un- certain and short-liyed. But, as he also said, though we are being rapidly sobered, we are unappaIIed by this truth. Socialism, communism, nihilism, the tyranny of organized bodies controlled by foreign in haenees, are at this moment threat- ening our free institutions; but our faith is not shaken. If the name of Repubieanism is appealed to for the purpose of turning freedom into anarchy, and even a crazy Repub- fcan assassinatcs a President, the spirit of true Democracy is present
 to limit encroachments, and to main.
 tain the Government against all eentrahzing and despotie mmaces.

 Culliford was married last winter, his wife being divorced woman who had been released from her first mar riage vows by her husband being sen fenced for larceny. She lived in com parative happiness with Culliford till the summer just ended, when Dratt and another man known as Cub" Johnson began frequenting the house. Gossip ensued and the couple soon separated. Not long afterwards d truce was patched up and the two began living together again, but yesterday the husband came upon his wife and Dratt and demanded of the former if he wanted the woman. Receiving an affirmative reply, the sum already named was fixed upon and paid in her presence, and last evening Dratt drove to the house and got the woman and her belongings. Culliford afterwards went about boasting of his bargain, which he evidently considered a good one.

have one really big show with us this season, but, in what goes to make mp rare variety and reere- ation for the masses, the biggest best and oldest show on the road. The progress made toward the stupcn- dous by the Sells Brothers in the past twcnty-threc years has been somewhat marvellous. The small show with which they made d timor- ous beginning has grown to be a genuine public institution of the first magnitude, well and favorably known in every section of the coun- try, ana everywhere patronized by the best people. It has even more than kept pace with the unparalleled general development. and ranks first among tented exhibitions. It's tre- mendous spread of canvas covers |, regal Roman hippodrome race track, monster tifty-cage menagerie. triple circus. huge elevated stages, Aus. tralian aviary. Arabian caravan, African aquarium. spectacular pageants and transatlantic wild west exhibit, and hundreds of exclusively exhibited features, brilliant perform CTS and startling and ludicrous races and acts. Several huge special trains are required to transport this enor. nous melange af wonder and fun, and how so much can be exhibited for the one price of admission, 5t cents, is an enigma which can be on earth. Don't fail to see the grand street p2radc and judge Tor yourself as to it's magnitude.

PARTIAL census returns show that one-third of the farmers of the country do not own their homes, and that 20 per cent. of those who do are encountered with mortgages. According to Senator Voorhees, the annual interest on mortgages other than corporation would pay all the Government expenses, except pen. sions. But some states are worse of
 than others. For example, com parison of Kansas with Arkansas shows liens on Kansas farms amounting to s73, 74e, 2S3; Arkansas, 42, ,O32, ,345. The average debt on owned and encumbered farms in Kansas is $l, ,326; in Arkansas, s6l3.

The Sports celebrate the Day

Christmas Day was desecrated yesterday
by brutal chicken fight several miles ont of
the city Some of the city gentlemen of
sporting proclivities were present and cele-
brated Christmas by participating in this
cruel aud unmanly (so-called) sport, of see
ing chickens cut themselves to death With
caves.
Christmas Day is supposed to be day Of
peace and Of charitable deeds, and kind SC
tions, but if there is any kindness or charity
in cruel chicken fighting. the writer fails TO
see it. Men should seek amusemeots and
society calculated to elevate them, a-i reli-
gion should also play a prominent part iu the
days program, but chicken fighting is de-
moralizing aud de5asing.
It is not known bow much money changed
hands on thus form Of gambling for chicken
Sighting is generally INDUCED in for the mon
ey that there is 10 il, as there can be no
amusement in it to the intellgen, and refined
man. Neither does the writer know how
many fights occurred nor how many chickens
were cruelty tortured TO death for the purpose
of satia,ing the gambling thirst of the specta-
tors and pitters
