Apparently It is hard to please the
Democrats Of Pennsylvania, thinks Mr..

There was Mr.. Sihloy, who resigned his
seat In congress- because he could not
support the Wilson I'LL. aud his con.

aud begged lin to remain IN congress-
as he rcpresented their sentiments. they
said. Then MIR. BcltELOuvcr also a
Democrat, came ont Hat footed IN or

earnest plea for his down troddon con.
stilucnts. But instead Of praising MIR.

Three Merchants Of Walton Are Ar
rested for Selling Whisky.


Walton, KY, Feb. The entire com.
munity is excited over the arrest OF
James Ricketts,, El2ie German aud Mrs.
Susie Lanuhnn, three Of Wmtons mer-
chauta and prominent citizens, ON the
charge of selling liquor without a license.
-Four years ago Boone county went
prohibition, and has remained so ever
since. 1t is well known, however, that
whisky and beer were sold In every
hamlet IN the county, and that at Wal
ton II was an open secret with all.
The peace loving citizuns hired detec'
tiyes time and again to secure evidence
against the people who sold liquor, but
for fourteen months We're unsuccessful,
Recently the grand jury took hold Of the
matter, and many citizens were sum
moned before that body, but 80 etr0ng
had the hold Of these people become
that no evidence could be secured
As last resort the county hired de-
tcctiyes. In the guise of n lie insnf-
ance agent and agent for a photograph
copying house, two detectives fingered
in town several days, drank with city
officials TO their hearts content, and
lastly swore out the variants. The
trial Of Messrs. German aud Ricketts,
and Mrs. Iandhan will be held t0nor-
row. The strength Of The accused viii
be seen when it 1t stated that Cincinnati
aud C0vinglon concerns Will aid tham
with their money.

Winning q Pile of Money Caused One Man
to Go Crazy.
1t was a brokers' office
The droning announcements Of the
young man with the chalk; intervals
filled with conversation that soon assumed
anything but u business character. Would
you believe it? The broker and his Gus.
TONERS were involved in u labyrinthian ar
gument relative to the nature of the Deity
and this was succeeded by abstruse specu-
latdons on the probable consequence Of an
irresistible force coming in contact with
an immovsble mass.
It's a fascinating topic-at least we
found it so-and 1 cheerfully recommend
1t for trial when conversation flags around
the cracker box in the corner grocery or
when you can't get fourth hand for
whist in the club. The discussion was
switched back to the market by an occur
renee that partook Of the tragic, an episode
that left a CHASTITY impression on me, II
not on all
The door opened, and in walked a man
who was laughing and fairly glowing with
merriment. His laughter was infectious,
but WAS the only man who smiled. The
others turned uneasily in their chairs and
stared out of the windows or began to
read the newspapers.
Good morning, hal hal Charley, hal
hal" giggled the newcomer. How, huhl
huh! huhl how's y. P, hal ha! this
morningP Hal hal" and he went on in u
mild paroxysm of cachinnation.
He's struck it lucky" thought, ard,
as l remarked before, l could not help
smiling and feeling glad with him. Not
so the broker With Il troubled look he
took the joyous man by the hand, spoke to
him In q low tone and led him out, the
latter continuing to bubble and sputtcr
like an overwrought teakettle. Presently
the broker re-entered, shook his head and
sighed
THAT poor chap gives me the shivers, y
he said. Il wish he would keep out of
here" Then he went on to explain to me
what was familiar to all his regular visit
ors That man., he said, was II specu-
lator. He had never made much in any
deal and was generally ON the losing side
A few years ago he came in just before the
opening and put up 81, 900, all he had, to
sell U. p. 1t stood at 1874. He left the
room with kind of desperate air, saying
II U. z. rose point and wiped him out
he should never speculate again, for the
thousand was the last he had. Well, sir,
on that day U. p. went down In the most
sensational way on record, not an eighth
at time or by jumps of point, but by
10 points ut lick, and when it stopped it
was down to 60. Every point meant 81,
600 for that man.
Toward tho close of business he came
in. He hadn't been watching the market
during the day, and he couldn't under
stand it when he looked at the board. We
had to get around and explain things to
him as If he were n child. When finally
gave him check for $63, OO0 he began to
laugh. He laughed when he deposited the
check ut his bank. and he hasn't stopped
laughing yet"
1t was comforting to know that this un-
fortunate, turned crazy by good luck, net
ted enough by his prosperous venture to
keep him and his family in good circum-
stances during his life.-Chicago Times.

Acid and Air Motors.

The latest experiments with carbonic

that If a compound engine Is employed,
and the gas or air heated so that the tenn

as3. o degrees F., the carbonio acid engine
requires 81 Clio pounds of carbonic acid
per hour per horsepower, and the air ell
CINE IA $40 pounds of air, on this basis,
as stated, it being practicable to determine
the price at which it would have to be
sold to be an economical power. 1t is
urged in this respect that If the carbonic
acid be exhausted into the atmosphere the
cost is much too great for ordinary power
purposes. If the exhaust is condensed,
the engine WILL it is said, have the same
theoretical efficiency as an engine using
any other vapor through the same range OF
temperature, and the working pressures
will be very high, SO that practical diff.
culties are met with.-New York Sun.

1t is not often that Fred Doty, the well
known ticket agent, gets what he styles a

buying lemonade on an incident that hap
pened in his office during the afternoon
Just before the busy hour peripatetic M
tive Of sunny Italy who handles the throt-
tie Of street piano drifted into Fred's es-
Establishment and asked Fred If he wanted
any change. Now, it happened that Fred
had just banked against run Of large
bills and was glad to get some small
change, so he answered offhandedly, YES
I'll take all you've got. -
This was where Mr.. Doty made the big
gest mistake of his life. Deep down into
his big pockets dived the italian, and in
an instant the counter was literally COW
cred with mass of coppers. Handful aft
or handful was poured forth before the as
tonished Fred, who at length managed to
gasp, ''That'n do, that'n do, to which,
however, his dago friend paid no heed.
He reached behind him, pulled out a
greasy leather bag, and several pounds
moro of copper coin increased the bullying
heap. There were some SIS in coppers for
which the Italian wanted good United
States silver, although he was willing to
take bills.
In the name of Calumet and Hecla"
shouted Fred, pointing in disnay to the
heap of coin, "have you cornered the cop

get all that?''
'Da monk picka dem up" replied the
vender of music checrfully as he waited
for Fred to give him his change.
