THE PRIZE TRlPLETS.
They Have Laid Claim to Superiority Oy
the IPaminCtOn Three,

They Have Laid Claim to Superiority Over
the bennington Three.
! Mr.. G. Mayes writes to us from Hal
stead to call attention to the fact that
the Whitmarsh-near bennington
ltriplets are not the only ones which have
lived to celebrate their majority. At
Edinburgh one morning in August,
1868, the wife of Mr.. G.. Mayes, watch
maker and jeweler, surprised her huS-
band by presenting him with triplets
two sons and one daughter-a feat
for which she was rewarded by duly re-
Iceiving the royal bounty. When the
youngsters came of age in 1884, the
proud father cOmmemorated the event
lby having a photograph of the three
taken and sending copy to the queen,
in acknowledgment of her former kind
ness. Her majesty replied to Mr..
IMayes' letter, expressing a hope that
the triplets were we'll and prOspering.
| Mr. and Mrs. Mayes-the latter of
whom was the mother of five children
In 1S months-are still we'll and hearty,
and on the Sd of January they propose
celebrating their golden wedding. Mr..
Mayes tells us that the triplets all enjoy
good health. I'VE are all three mar
ried-two boys and one girl-and two
of us-myself and sister-have children
of our own, my sister three and myself
one. We have attained our thirtieth
year, and so outstrip the case near
bennington. ."-Westminster Gazette.

ANTARCTIC EXPLORATION.
What DR.. John Murray of the Challenger
Expedition Thinks About 1t.

Expedition Thinks About 1t.
An attempt is being made under the
auspices of the Royal Geographical so
cietv to renew interest in antarctic ex-
ploration. An important paper on the
subject was presented to the society
this week by DR.. John Murray of the
Challenger expedition. He argued that
the continent at the south pole CON-
prised 4, 1000, 900 square miles and that
great practical benefits in the depart
ments of biology, geology and physics
would be gained by its exploration. He
did not advocate a fash for the pole,
but demanded rather a steady, syste-
matte exploration of the whole southern
region with all the appliances of mod
ern investigators. The exploration
should be undertaken by the royal navy.
Two ships, not exceeding 1000 tons
burden each. should be fitted out for
three summers and two winters.
Early In the first season a wintering
party of 10 men should be landed some
where south of Cape Horn, probably
about Bismarck strait, at Graham
Land. The expedition should proceed
to Victoria Land, where a second party
should winter, probably at Mac Murdo
bay, near Mount Erebus. The ships
should not be frozen in, but should re-
turn north, conducting observations of
various kinds toward the outer margins
Of the ice. The position of the ice AMI
the temperature of the ocean should Is
observed.
Early in the spring the wintering
parties should be communicated with
and re-enforced for another winter.
During the second winter deep sea OBJ
servations should be continued TO the
north. In the third season the winter
ing parties should be picked up and the
expedition return to England.-London

Which Is 1t?

The Neue Freie Press of Vienna be-
iieves that Russia's object is to put an
end to the stoppage of the Dardanelles
by Turkey and to obtain supremacy in
the Mediterranean. The Austrian organ
adds: Let England take care. 1t is she
who is the aim of Russian ambition,
which is working to destroy her naval
supremacy in the inland sea-" Is the
statement an echo to the campaign just
commenced in England to obtain an in
crease in the strength of her fleet or is
it the beginning of political cam

REDUCED HER NOSE,
An Actress Whose Proboscis Was Toe
Large Had 1t Shaved Down.

Large Had 1t Shaved Down.
Miss Crystal Thornton, an actress
submitted to peculiar surgical opera
tion at Roosevelt hospital Nov. %
Miss Thornton, whose home is in Cali.
fornia, is a handsome young woman,
but in her opinion her appearance suf-
fered through what she thought was a
deformed nose, but which others re-
garded as nothing more than a pro-
nounced Roman nose. She determined,
however, to have the nose reduced to a
normal size and consulted DR.. Charles
McBurney with the view of having him
perform the operation.
The surgeon, it is said, advised her
that if the operation was performed a
scar might remain, which would per-
haps be more Objectionable to her than
her prominent nose. Miss Thornton
declared that she preferred the scar to
having SO much nose and renewed her
request that the operation be perform
ed. The patient was placed under the
influence of ether, incisions We're made,
the skin laid away ON either side and
part of the bone removed.
The wound was treated with anti
septics, the skin replaced, and in due
time the patient went home. She Wis
tied the hospital again two days later,
when the wound was found to be heal
ing nicely. Miss Thornton has since
that time remained at home, and un-
less some unforeseen accident occurs
will in time make her appearance in
public with symmetrical nose, in har-
mony with the rest of her features. -

To Benefit Barmaids.

A movement is on foot in England,
fostered by group of noble ladies in
terested in the subject, TO protect bar
maids as to their hours of labor. 1t is
estimated that there are 120. 900 young
women in London in licensed houses
who work from Is to IS hours day on
weekdays and from seven to nine hours
on Sundays, with one Sunday off in
each month. Surely when SO much is
said about an eight hour day for men
these young women Ought not to be for
gotten. They find a haven of rest in
their brief intervals of leisure at the
Morley rooms, established by the late
Mr.. Samuel Morley and now under the
superintendent of Miss G. NJ. Cough.
Here barmaids out of work can stay,
paying a very small sum for board and
lodging. But the social part of the
work is the most valuable. Barmaids
are brought into contact with ladies Of
education and refinement. The rooms
are used for reading, writing, music,
conversation, rest and advice, and books
are lent from an excellent library

An Evening With Andrew Lang.

on preparatory to leaving this Office be-
fore o clock. Any one breaking this
rule will be charged with demerit of

1t is perhaps not strictly our busi-

IN his speech at the republican coun-
ty convention, Gen. Caldwell made the
audaOiOus statement that for thirty
years under republican rule, wages
steadily rose until two years ago when
Cleveland was elected. Any man who
can remember even ten years back,
knows tbe statement to be false. A
speaker who makes an assertion so OBJ
viously false as the above leads one to
doubt the truth of bis entire speech.
II tho country two years ago was enjoy
ing such high degree of prosperity as
the General would have US believe, why
the great turning Of the people from
the &. o. p; to the democratic party?
This of itself was positive proof that
something was radically wrong with
the government, and that labor was not
getting Its dues. But the democratic
party has been tried ana has been
found wanting-no more able OF will
ing to legislate in favor OF labor than
was its republican predecessor. We
predict another change two years from
this fall, and 1t will not be back to the
republicans either.

eRIsTow WANTS AID

When Breidenthal solicited funds
from members of the peoples party in
the eastern part Of the state to carry on
the campaign in the western part, a
loud and prolonged howl went I'D from
the republican leaders, charging Breid-
enthal with seeking senatorial honors
etc. But now that Secretary Bristow
OF the republican central committee
has come out in a letter demanding
500 from single individuals, we don't
hear much from the &. O. d. press about
BreidenthaTs letter. MorrlIl's $50, 900
don't seem to go very far in a republi-
can campaign; in fact, it seems to be
well nigh exhausted at this early date.
and Bristow Is out rustiing for more.
The letter was written to q vel. to-do
republican who hadn't been in the hab-
1t of contributing very freely to the
cause Of repubIicanism, and he is i'm
plored to go through the country and
gather up enthusiasm In the way of
dollars and cents. Several others have
been written. but this one is sufficient
to show what the reps are after.
MY DEAR SIR: You have been rec.
commended to us as a republican in
terested in republican success. The
state committee this year has no funds,
except those contributed by the people.
We have no officers in the state or ma.
tion who can assist US in a financial
way in the campaign. We need funds
badly. There is great demand for
literature, which we must publish and
get out at. once. We would like to en-.
list your services. Can you not raise
US some money in your neighborhood,
any amount from S. to 500 and remit
to us at once, if possible, giving name
of each contributor and amount he con-
tributed?
Ii not the name, give US the name of
your township, ward or precinct, and
1t Will be so credited upon our books.
Please take hold of this with some en-.
thusiasm, as it is great necessity at
this time. We believe that every citi-
zen of Kansas who realizes the condl-
lions, Is anxious that there should be
republican victory in this state. 1t
Is to his interest financially that the
burden under which we have
been struggling for two years should be
lifted and Kansas be herself again.
Help US in this cause. If we can get
the great mass of earnest republicans
actively at work, there is no question
or ouI success. This we must do, and
you can materially aid us.
Let US hear from you soon and oblige.

A Special Offer.

OF the many populist exchanges COM
ing to our ofica, none spends SO much
money to get the suppressed Washing
ton news before its readers as the Non
conformlst. Yes, suppressed news.
What the plqtOcratic papers have been
careful to keep their readers from find
ing out, the two tireless correspond
eDts of the NOnconformist have dug up
and sent the paper for the benefit of its
thousands of readers. Many a secret
has thus leaked out that the plutocracy
never meant that the common worka-
day people should know.
We have made special arrangements
whereby We can send the Noncontorm-
list and the INDEX from now until jan
uary 1, 1896. for One Dollar.

THE republicans in their convention
in this city ''whereased" and resoluted
that "the management OF our county
affairs under the populist rule, has been
characterized with fraud and extrava-
gance unparalleled in the history of the

stantiate that charge. by the records.
Since the Cresset is candidate that L.
pledged to restore the country to n
honest and healthy condition." we
challenge 1t 70 point to single in
stance wherein the country has lost a
single copper through dishonesty Of
populist officials. The record OF repub-
lican officials show which party has
been "extraVagant" and dishonest, :"
