Afraid of the Pops,

It was in sleeping car going through
Kansas. The man from the East was
evidently agirated about something. It
was a remarkable fact that he had a news
paper spread over his lap and seemed
scared to death every time the brak eInan
opened the door and let the draught turn
one corner Of it over. The man in the
seat behind him saw him looking under
the seat every once in while, and after q
time made bold to say:
Have you lost auything?"
mo"
After silence he turned his head and
said:
My friend, will you lean over so that
I can talk to you without turning
around ?''
The request was complied with, and he
went on:
Ppm lookin' for friend In need. You
don't belong in Kansas, do your"
"No.n
"Well, l want to borrow pair of socks.

without an extra soyrly."

stranger. ut must be rather embarrass-
ing to be caught in such predicainent

THE COYOTE INDUSTRY.

1t Receives a Setback by the State
Examiners.
Holders of coyote claims who have been
flattering themselves that they were going
to get their arms into the State Treasury
up to their elbows as soon as the State
taxes came in to replenish the general
fund, will be doomed to disappointment.
Y esterday the State Board of Examiners
adopted the following:
"WHEREAS, 1t is made to appear to this
board that there is not now and will not
be sufficient funds to the credit of the
general fund in the State Treasury to pay
the running expenses of the State Gov
ernment, including salaries OF State otfi-
GERS, State CommissionerSan and the Judges,
and running expenses of the departments
until after the first Monday in December,
1894; and whereas, it is claimed that the
Act providing for the payment of coyote
claims is not in itself an appropriation,
and therefore that specific appropriation
should be made by the Legislature to pay
the same; therefore, he it

PATRIOTIC WORK.
Charity Distribution of the Ladies'
Relief Corps.

Charity Distribution of the Ladies'
Relief Corps.
One of the most powerful factors in the
distribution of charity in this country
has been the Woman's Relief Corps,
auxiliary to the Grand Army Of the Re-
public. which is the greatest patriotic or
ganization of women in the world. Gen.
Given, veteran of the Mexican war, as
well as of the war of the rebellion, now q
Judge of the Supreme Coart OF Iowa.
speaks of the work of this auxiliary from
the standpoint OF close student, an able
iurist and progressive citizen:
SURREME COURT CHAMBERS,
DEs MONIES (Iowa), Nov. 16, 1893.
Mss Edith Tram, National I. and 1.
Officer, WoHlaa'S Relief Co'ps-MY DEAR
FRIEND: You ask me if | approved of
the Woman's Relief Corps, and ii so why
approve Of it with all my heart be-
cause in this age of charitable organiza-
tions it is the grandest. AS auxiliary to
the G. A. r. it judiciously distributes the
largest charity that is administered by
any charitable organization, and mainly
to the most deserving, the needy veterans
of the Union army and navy.
The necessity for the organization
arises out of the inability of the men of
the G. A. r., because of their numerous
engagements. to judiciously administer
1t was with the G. A. r. as in the six
ties, when men undertook to distribute
the generous donations of the loyal peo-
pie in the hospitals and camps in the
front, confusion marked the enterprise
and the most needy were frequently the
least favored.
1t was not until loyal women like
Mother Bickerdick, Mother Wittenmeyer
and Aunt Becky Young took charge that
order came out of confusion and the
sanitary supplies SO lavishly contributed
reached the sick and wounded. So it was
with the G.. A. r. until the women
through their organization came to the
rescue.
1t is evident that as the veterans grow
older the demands on posts and corps
must increase, hence every post should
see to it that corps is organized to aid in
its charitable work and every woman
who is eligible and desires to be in the
way of doing more good than she can
otherwise possibly do, should join the
Relief Corps. I am very respectfully,
yours in f. c. and L.,

The City Hall bell in Oakland strikes
twelve at noon every day of the week,
and now certain of the clergy of that city
are protesting publicly against this inter-
ruption of their religious exercises in the
churches by the sonorous notes of the
bell declaring high noon. The remedy,
gentlemen, is to begin your services
earlier. But suppose that class of Chris
tians who hold Saturday to be the true
Sabbath should complain of the, striking
of the monday bell on that day? Sup
pose the Hebrews object also that it dis
turbs them at their devotions-w
then? Shall there be no town clocks, or
shall they be stopped on the first day of
the week or any other day. and hence all
days, to accommodate churches? These
objecting gentlemen should travel in
other lands equally advanced with this,
and hear from church spire and cathedral
tower the bells and chimes ring out high
noon every blessed day of the week. But
if Oakland's tolling Of the noon hour in

midst of their devotions at other hours
when the onward sweep of time is her.
aided from belfry and cupola? Shall not
the pealing bell be stilled there also? But
the time has come when all church bells
should be abolished, for their day of nse-
fulness is past. They are relics of the
days when there were no clocks or
watches to tell the people the hour, and
no newspapers in which could be pub
lished the hour for service.

A. A. HEALY in the December Forum
calls to the stand expert business men
to prove that in the different branches of
trade the first five months of 1898 were
generally more prosperous than the cor
responding months of 1892, 1891 or 1890.
That there is just as much reason to sup
pose that the prosperity of these early
months of the year was caused by the
prospect of changes in the tariff, as that
the depression of the sixth, seventh and
eighth months of the year is to be attrib
uted that prospect. There is much truth in
what Mr.. Healy asserts. The country
had pronounced upon a change of policy
months before there was any stringency.
The disposition to charge present evils
to tariff agitation is, however, a natural
one, but not for that reason necessarily
true one

THE Los Angeles papers fail to account

for the non-arrest of Thompson, who tes-
titled that he committed perjury to escape
one criminal charge, and then confessed
to the perjury to escape a second charge
How is it? Do confessed perjurers and

Angeles? Are magistrates down there
ignorant of their duty to order into Gus

DIR. DANIEL G. BRINToN, the ethnolo-
gist, summing up all the testimony, gives
us the fullest answer yet made to the
three questions: "How old is the human
?" "When did man first appear ?"
Where did he appear ?" DR.. Brinton
concludes from all the geological and an
thropological evidence that the race is
$4,000 years of age. The evidences are
unmistakable that the race has existed
certainly $4,000 years. AS to the process
by which the race came into existence,
science, he declares, cannot give with its
present lights any definite answer. He
says:
Ii it refuse TO accept the doctrine OF specific
creation, il must refuse ali, for lack OF COM
pete evidence, 10 accept the doctrine OF grad
aai evolution-tne old Darwinian theory. The
theory of evolution by leap is as good as
any other theory. According to this, man
sprung from come high order OF mammal, the
great tree-ape, perhaps, BY a freak, just as men
of genius are fr> AXIS. and as all the vegetable
and animal Kingdom show freaks.
AS to the locality OF mans first appear
ance, he holds that it is beyond all doubt
to be accepted that Southern Europe was
the earliest home of man; either that or
the south of Asia or the north of Africa
one of the three. No earlier races of man
are found, says DIR. Brinton, than are
found in the area that is now England,
France and Spain, aud hence he favors
the European theory.

ARB0R DAY.
How the Day was Observed by Students Of
Augustus Schools.

The Arbor day exercises at the Cony
High school were carried out very success
fully, and were given complete as pub
lished in the JOURNAL of yesterdays issue.
Principal A. H. Brainard presided during
the exercises in the building, and the part
of the programme on the campus was in
charge of G. Cakes Tobey, class of "a, the
exercises on the campus being wholly by
this class, and consisting, besides Mr..
Makers fine Grafton, of singing and the
planting of the elm tree in front of the
building, near the walk, by the class of '94,
each member placing around its roots a
shovelful of clay.
The part of the programme rendered in
side of the building was finely carried out
Many of the students parents and friends
were present. Captain Nash, others of the
school board, teachers in the city schools,
the pastors and some of the citizens were
in attendance. The main room was made
cheerful by bunting and flowers. All the
pictures were draped and the flag was hung
from the tower. When the students and
all present gathered on the lawn in front of
the building to witness the planting of the
tree it made very interesting scene.

liquor about the premises at the time Of
Henry's death. He raid that she testified
there was no cider on the premises the day
of Getchelfs death.
Cross-examined-
Odd you make any record of her
testimony:
Al did not. Witness wouldn't say
whether she said she didn't remember OF
not.
The reply she made was that at that time
there was no cider about the premises, but
witness couldn't remember exactly what the
question was. Thought the answer was
there had not been cider about the premises
for some time. He wouldn't say how long.
Thought something was said about jug.
John Milton, member of the present
grand Jury, testified as toswhat witness tes-
timony before the grand jury was. He un-
derstooj that she testified there hadn't been
any cider on the premises for two or three
weeks, he thought. He was examined as
to what questions were put to Minnie.
W. p. Hanks of the grand jury thought
the county attorney asked her if there was
any cider on the premises the day Henry
died. Didn't remember whether she was
asked how long there had been no cider on
the premises. Didn't remember anything
about cider jugs, barrels or bottles. Thought
there were questions about cider in the
house previous to Henry's death.
Sheriff Norton vas called and shown the
round quart bottle introduced by the de-
fence as the gin and sulphur bottle.
He was asked if that was the
bottle shown him at the Getchell house.
II <. he kae nf HE nd
not the bottle. Thought the bottle shown
him was flat and more of greenish tinge.
Mr.. Norton would not swear positively that
this was not the bottle.
The prosecution wanted to introduce
parts of Trask's statement to Sheriff Nor
ton, but it was excluded.
Belle Abbott of Sidney took the witness
stand.
Stated that while at Ocean Point last
summer saw Trask and Mrs. Getchell alone
together walking in the footpath toward the
woods not far from where they were stop
ping. They were headed toward the woous
and the porgy factory. This was in
the forenoon Mrs. Gilmore was with
me and spoke to Trask about going blue
berrying. This was stricken out as cumu-
lative evidence.)
f. W. Hamlen was recalled. He didn't
think the round quart bottle was the one
Mrs. Getche'l showed him at the Getchell
house. Pretty sure it was not. Didn't
want to state he was absolutely positive
that wasn't the bottle.
Observation-Disclosures odes was put on
the stand to deny the statement made by
Mrs. Williams as to her seeing Trask and
her mother on the lounge Witness denied
she told Mrs. Williams any such thing.
This closed the testimony and all the
were discharged.
