since 1881, when he worked in the judges
office. Judge Cole first helped him, said
the defendant, by going on a bond for

quite large sum by bringing him a client.

Bicycle Riders Have Rights.

st. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 27.--In a
decision just handed down, the
Supreme Court gives bicycle rid
ers all the rights of the general
thoroughfares granted to other
vehicles. The test case was that of
n. A. Thompson, whose horse ran
away at the sight Of a bicycle
ridden by William Dodge, the
buggy of Mr.. Thompson being de-
molished, and Mr.. Thompson in
jured. The latter brought suit for
damages alleging that the bicyc-
list had no right to the road. Judge
Buck avs in his decision against
Mr.. Thompson: bicycles are
vehicles used so extensively for
convenience, recreation, pleasure
and business and the riding of
them upon the public highway as
is pow done is not unlawful or
prohibited. Because the plaintiff
chooses to drive a horse hitched
to a carriage does not give to him
the right to dictate to others their
mode of conveyance upon a public
highway, where the right, of each
are equal"

A Lively Tilt.

An amusing little comedy, not down on
the regular program, occurred at the po-
litical meeting at Jungbecker's hall last
night.
The Big had secured the hall for the
use of the colored men who had congre-
gated there, and had proposed TO give the
voters few speeches by Mr.. Blair, Judge
Levy and others and did so.
Several candidates and friends of the
Independent Reform ticket came along
and Candidate Dignowity wanted per-
mission to speak on several calls being
made for him, but met with refusal A
heated argument then arose which
well nigh ended in a general
row, but was, however, pre-
vented by cooler heads, and the Indepen-
dent Reformers were persuaded not to
speak. They gracefully withdrew to
seats in the hall and afterwards held a
meeting down stairs.
During the melee Mr.. VIM. Simms and
Mr.. Nat Lewis bad lively tussle, but no
one was hurt, Constable" Coy acting as
peacemaker.
Those of the Big side who were pre-.
sent were Louis Huth, Ed. Froboese, Sr.,

far as their eXchangable value was con-
cerned, but he went on to say that II the
government were to adopt the idea or
these IS to l crankS, the country would
soon be in the thrOeS of another panic,
much worse than the last one. He show
ed up the fallacies and unreasonable
claims of the Is to advocates and also in
ilationIst ideas of the POpulists in clear
and concise manner, which ELECTED much
applause. He went on to say that it was
the stamp of the government and its
ability TO redeem and pay its obligations
that makes our silver dollar just as good
as gold, but il we were TO leglSlate
for the government beyond its
apparent ability To pay and redeem It's
obligations, we would be Lreading on dan
gerouS ground, Just the same as mer-
chants in business, II they issued more
promises to pay than they could possibly
meet, under such circumstances, their
paper would depreclate in value accord
ing to their apparent ability to pay. He
stated that double standard of gold and
silver money without an international
agreement, was practically impossible;
said you might establish both on an equal
market value of either OF the metals would
require a change of ratio every little
while; he said when you speak OF
double standard of gold and silver, that
meant that the metals In both dollars
must at all times be of equal intrinsic
value, and that was something that the
government could not maintain without
an international agreement, or as long as
either of those metals remained a COM
modify In the markets Of the world.
He spoke of Judge Noonan as that
grand old man of Texas, and appealed to
all good citizens and business men to vote
for him: that he felt more interested in
Judge Noonan's election than in his own
success. His eloquent tribute to the
Judge, produced spontaneous applause.
In conclusion he appealed in eloquent
language to the Republicans, and all
liberal minded and progressive
citizens of Texas, to rally to
the standard OF the Republic
can party, as it was their only sal
walton to renew the prosperity they
have heretofore enjoyed
Mr.. Schmitz made deep impression on
his audience, and at the conclusion many
OF them, particularly our German citizens,
gathered around him and shook his hand.

lican speech made in this city during this

HOTEL HOLOCAUST.
Twelve Persons Burned to Death in
Seattle.

Seattle.
SEATTLE, Wn., Oct. 2.-Fire,
which resulted certainly in twelve
deaths and injury to three per-
sons, broke out in the West Street
hotel at l o'clock this morning.
All the dead were burned beyond
recognition. The flames broke out
so suddenly and so fiercely that
the occupants were taken by sur.
prise.
A sharp explosion was heard in
the kitchen and Immediately the
flames began to spread rapidly.
w. f. Butler, proprietor of the
hotel, says the fire undoubtedly
originated from kerosene lamp
in the kitchen, which was located
on an upper floor near a rear wall.
The flames made such rapid
progress that before the inmates
could possibly be aroused, the fire
was upon them.
Then people began to drop from
windows on both sides Of the build
ing. d. E. Glass jumped out of a
window, struck on his back and
lay struggling until picked up and
carried to a hospital.
One poor fellow, identity not
known, was caught near the top of
the stairway and sank, overcome
with smoke and flames.
There was some unaccountable
delay in getting water on, owing
to the slowness of the fire boat get
ting up steam.
When at last pressure did come
the building was raging furnace.
The first dead man taken out was
found with one leg in his trousers
and shoes half laced. He was so bad
ly burned as to be unacceptable,
as were all other bodies.

Woman,s Perfection Line.

Somewhat in despair at my own
dizziness on this question, l re-
Gently propounded it before a
luncheon party where young girls
predominated, and at a dinner illu-
minated, by the witty presence of
certain men and women Of advanc-
ed experience in society, writes
Mrs. Burton Harrison in reply to
the question SCAT What Age is a
Woman at her Best, Mentally and
Physically" in the November
Ladies Home Journal. The voice
of the young girls was almost I'M
animous in fixing a limit not
greatly to surpass the age of
twenty-six. That of their elders
graciously extended the perfection
line for women to between the
ages of thirty and forty. But al
most every one had some instance
to quote of feminine charm so out
living the actual sum of years that
its fortunate possessor remained as
Indifferent to t1eeting time as the
fly in amber. A famous (but
apocryphpD instance of this is the
story Of Theodore de Banville of a
young provincial, who meets at
fete of the great world in Paris
charmer who sings and dances his
keeping. At supper he sees the
same lady presiding with their
host over the table of honor, where
in the act of giving a toast with
unequaled vivacity, she is stricken
with sudden illness and carried
out of the room. Next day, when
all Paris is mourning the death OF
the charming duchess, the young
man asks the cause. "But, my dear
fellow do you not know" was the
wondering reply. at was nothing
more than old age"
