difference Between "cheels" and Nerve.

Difference Between "Cheele" and Nerve.
Many people use the word "cheek'
and "nerye," of everyday vernacular, a.
if they were synonymous and inter.
changeable. A bright friend called oul
attention to this the other day by max
ing a very nice distinction between them.
It's idiotic, said he, to use the words
"cheek" and nerve" as if they meant
the same Cheek is no more nerve than
beauty is brain. A man may have both,
but it's not usual. Cheek is active. Nerve
is passive Cheek needs mouth. Nerve
very seldom uses one and then only to
shut it. Cheek talks and acts. Nerve
thinks, waits and achieves. Cheek is
sometimes admirable in its ends, but is
usually offensive in its means. NERVES.
never offensive.
Don't ever think man necessarily
lacks nerve just because he doesn't ask
for what he wants. His forbearance
may be the best proof of his nerve. A
cheeky man compares with nervy one
as sprinter Of a 100 yards dash com.
pares with a 20 miles go-as-you-please
runner. Cheek is sometimes a blessing
and sometimes curse. Nerve is al
ways blessing.
In these days, when taking" is a fine
art, cheek has better chance to win
financial success than nerve has, l think.
But though nerve dies poor it probably
dies happy.-Donahoe's Magazine.

Like u Brave Man.

John Weitzel was one CT the boldest
pioneers of West Virginia ga man abb
solutely without fear" one of the chron-
iclers of those times calls him. The man.
ner of his death was worthy of that eu-
logy. In the pursuit of his occupation,
that of hunter and surveyor, he often
undertook long journeys alone-a reck
less proceeding when time and place are
considered-and was never accompanied
by more than one or two friends.
One day, while returning in a canoe
with one companion from an excursion
to Middle Island creek, he was hailed by
q large party of Indians and ordered to
put ashore. Without making any reply
he headed the boat for the middle of the
stream, and with his companion made
every effort to escape.
The Indians fired on the instant, and
one of the bullets struck Weitzel in the
body. Seeing at once that the wound
was mortal, he ordered the other man
to lie down in the canoe, and then with
renewed vigor, though his life was ebb-
ing fast, he pulled for the opposite shore.
The Indians fired another volley, but
without effect, and before they could re.
load the boat was out of range. Weitzel
expired soon after reaching the bank
and was buried by his companion. His
grave may still be seen, marked by 8

Girls Should Know Something.

1t is assured!y of the highest impor-
lance to the girl Of today
that she shall reach woman
hood with the very best and the most
thorough intellectual knowledge that
her opportunities in life make it pos
sible for her to obtain. Where igno-
rance in woman was considered a
misfortune years ago, today it is re-
garded as but little short of a crime.
Nor is that knowledge only within
the reach of the few elect. Educa-
ton holds out it's advantages to the
humblest in theland. The educational
institutions for the mass are perfect as
are the colleges for the few. The
saddest of all feelings that can come
to a girl when she reaches years of
observation is when she discovers
that she knows less than do those
with whom her path in life has
thrown her in contact.

A Silly Joker's Lesson.

Some time ago a guest of one of our
hotels sent old Mrs. Marsh to the South
ern Express company's Office with an Or
der to the express agent to pay Mrs.
Marsh $50, 900 at once The simple old
woman took 1t to the express Office, be-
lieving, as she always does, that the
money was due her. Clyde Glenn, the
polite and manly agent, took the note,
wrote across its back and sent Mrs.
Marsh with it to the writer.
When the man opened. the note, he
found the express agent had indorsed it
thus: will you not try in the future to
c ,nduct yourself as gentleman, remem-
boring that your mother is or will be an
old woman" The thoughtless joker took
the note to the express Office, called for

A Few Thoughts.

Good medicines are usually bitter.
1t is not wise to try to pump out
the sea.
A man cannot play false yet
rightly win.
Suspicion is the sure road to mis-.

When two ride the same horse, one
must ride behind.
He who will never stoop will never
stand highest.
1t is hard to keep fire burning in
the teeth of a storm.
Intolerance most intolerantly de-
nounces intolerance.

it is not wise to stoop to tie ones

His Impeachment.

CLEVELAND. July 11.-At a meeting of
local lodges Of Knights of Labor held to-
night the following resolutions were
unanimously adopted and telegraphed to
Washington:
WHEREAS, The performance OF. Republican
institutions depend upon The law-abiding cti-
Zens OF the community, and, whereas, the chief
executive Of the nation Is as much a subject of
law and is bound 10 obey it in the letter and
the subject as well as any citizen: and
whereas, Grover Cleveland, President OF the

violated the law OF the land, to wit: in refus.
ing for the months OF July, August, September
and October 1898. TO purchase the amount of
silver bullion required by law; in refusing 10
coin silver bullion as the law directs where
silver certificates were presented for redemp-

State authorities and without first issuing the
proclamation required by law; and
Whereas, such an example of repeated and
wanton violation of law and Of his oath of office
by the President of the United States must OF

from the General Managers Association
ordering certain lines to send out no trains
till designated scheme had been accom-
plished. All this, the men insist, is as
clear case OF conspiracy on the part Of
the general managers as the acts of Debs
and his associates. Judge Grosscup and
Milchrist have said that justice will be
meted out impariially to all violators of
the Federal statutes.
No more men will be brought to Chicago
by the General Managers Association to
take the places Of strikers. General Man
ager Egan said to-day: Early last week
he General Managers Association en-
gagged $500 competent men lr all depart
ments of railT0 aiding, and has distributed
them among the various roads. In addl-
ton to this the roads have themselves en-
gagged many and brought them here direct
from the East. Fully 5000 men have taken
the places Of railroad strikers in Chicago
There are still plenty of applicants for
work, and the roads have no difficulty in
supplying all the vacancies caused by the
strike"

Wayne tracks last Thursday and then had
to come back because of distractions.
The military forces guarding the Govern
ment buildings were strengthened to-day.
A Hotchkiss ield-gun, its muzzle pierced by
eight small bOres, was trained to COM

action taken by the President of the
United States. there is one cause for eriti-
cism in this deplorable business. and that
is the dilatoriness that prevailed since the
strike began. Mobs cannot be put down
by proc.amatlons or injunctons, and when
the troops are sent to scene of disorder
they should have instructions to shoot
upon the commission of the first overt act
Nothing will cause a STAMPEDE of
rioters quicker than dozen soldiers who
apply cold steel and hot lead, but when
mob gets the idea into its head that the
troops are sent for show and not for
action they are very apt to take adYau-
tage OF the situation.
What should have been done at the
very outset Of this disturbance was the ar
rest of the leader, Debs, and his incarcera-
ton under guard at Fort Sheridan. No
communication should have been per-
mitted with him and no bonds accepted
for his good behavior.
He should have been held as hostage
for the protection of innocent people and
his misguided folio ers, rs well as for the
preservation of law and order. Had the
head of snake been cut off the tail would
not have caused much trouble.
General Miles served under me during
the rebellion and know the stuff of which
he is made. 1t is not his nature to act in
a dilatory manner when the opposite is
desirable. and had his hands not been tied
in some mysterious manner he would have
settled the strike problem as soon as its
head was reared.
Prompt action by 500 regular troops
last Tuesday would have done as much
goOd-in fact. been more beneficial than
the mere presence Of 5000 troops in Chi
cago to-day. A show of force is not what
is necessary in such an emergency as this,
but rioters must be taught salutary and
everlasting lesson. These are my senti-
meDts, and no temporizing should be
tolerated"

ago. There were $50 men in line. supple
mented By about a dozen vehicles, which
were mainly filled with women and chill
dren.
The ostensible object of these gather
ingS is to pay respect to the memory OF
three miners, Carlson, Hennessy and Cum
mings, who were killed on that date by the
men who were defending the property of
the mine-Owners, who also had three
slain and a concentrator blown to atoms
with dynamite. which the union men ran
down penStock in the mill. The real
object, however. is test of the numerical
strength of the labor organizations of the
Occur d'Alene towns.
At II: 80 the procession started to the
cemetery, headed by a band of music.
This was followed by the Knights of
Labor, the American Railway Union, and
then the miners unions of Gem, Burke,
Mullan and Wardner.
The procession included a number OF
the business men of all these towns, who
joined them for sympathetic or CONNER
cial reasons.
The graves OF the three dead rioters
were strewn with flowers. The exercises
at the cemetery consisted entirely of
speeches. which, with one exception. were
intended to consecrate the crimes commit

were loudly applauded.

Labor Leaders " ant Cleveland to

board of the Knights of Labor, were at

Populist mem bers-Pence Of Colorado,
Davis of Kansas and others.
THE seat of war has been changed from
Chicago to Washington" said Mr.. Hayes,
when asked if they intended going 10
Chicago. Instead of our going to Chicago
the probability is that the leaders will be
called here to Washington, where they
are needed. Sovereign will probably re-
main to be arrested. 1t will be for the
good of the cause to have him arrested and
kept in jail. We think Debs made a mis-
take in getting bail. So long as cur lead
ers are behind the bars discussion will be
kept up by the people.
The purpose of our presence here in
Washington is to bring all our forces and
influence TO bear on the Government to
secure arbitration. We will ask the Ju-
dietary Committee Of the House to report
Senator Georges bill for arbitration as
soon as possible, Under the terms of the
bill for arbitration Of railway difficulties,
which was passed in 1888, President Cleve-
land has the power 10 institute arbitration
proceedings. That law was largely the
work OF our organization. Here is the
section under which he can proceed:

motion. or upon the application of one of
the parties, or upon the application of the
