Insulting the Wool Growers.


Senator Voorhees, attempt to eject
representatives Of the Wool Growers
Association from the marble room of
the Senate because they dared to urge
duty on raw wool was characters
tic piece of arrogance and impudence.
It was in line with the refusal by the
same Senator and his cuckoo colleag-
ues to listen to delegations of Ameri-
can workingmen and workingwomen
who went to Washington to ask for a
respectful hearing in behalf of the in
dustries that afford them livelihood.
Voorhees, and his Bourbon allies could
grant interviews at any time and place
to the agents of the Sugar Trust, but
they have neither patience nor courtesy
for the representatives of great ag-
ricultural industry like wool growing,
on which thousands of hardy Ameri-
can farmers depend for support. The
wool growers and wage earners have
memories, and when the cuckoos who
have treated them so insolently ask
for their votes next November the an
swer will be, eco to the Sugar Trust.

A washoa Boys Patent.

The Reno Journal says that James
Lee Gregory, Washoe county boy,
and resident of Washoe City, has
been granted a patent on fire escape.
The patent was issued September 8,
1898. He has also received an inter
national contract from England and
Germany properly signed and sealed
by the representatives of those gov
ernments. In this contract the esti-
mated value of the right in those
countries is $15, 900. The mechani-
cal arrangement of the device is a
combination of reels, pulleys, heavy
springs, cable, cage, etc. The cage
moves on guides and is lifted by the
tension on the springs, which are
wound up similar to clock spring as
the cage descends, or the springs can
be wound by hand SO as to raise the
cage. The cage can be made to hold
from five to fifteen persons, and can
be adjusted to work from one to
twenty-five stories IN height, and can
be run at any speed desired, and cas-
lily controlled by one person. The
cage is noncumbustible, being of light
iron frame work covered with ashes
tos, and so constructed that occupants
shut in can pass through flames with
out inconvenience. A bell near the
operator signals the approach of a
story landing, and safety clutches are
arranged in case of cable breaking.
Mr.. Gregory feels quite encouraged
over his prospects, having received
very complimentary letters from diff
ferent parts of the United States. He
expects to begin manufacturing the
escapes soon, and he is satisfied they
will find ready sale as the cost is not
great.

Among other industries in this city
is the sale, principally to Cinnamon,
of Mexican dollars, freshly coined, at
fifty-two cents each. The dollars are
good in China. It is transaction in
which, ultimately, the country loses
forty eight cents. The conditions that
make such trade profitable or possible
are in opposition to our country's in
terests. In this general loss lies large
ly the reason for existing depression.
Upon the correct solution of the prob
lem depends largely the return of
healthy financial conditions. m & S

To prevent importers and jobbers
from monopolizing the importing bus
mess, which will be greatly increased
should the Wilson bill become law,
Senator Morgan has offered an
amendment to the Triff bill which
makes trusts, contracts, conspiracies
or combinations of any kind illegal
and void when made by persons or
corporations engaged in importing
articles from foreign countries, for
the purpose of increasing the price in
the United States of any article i'm
ported or of foreign manufacture into
which such article enters.
The amendment was considered a
necessary safeguard against the
monopolization of the importing trade
by the money sharks of New York
and other importing cities, by the
protection Democrats who are sworn
to assist in pulling the administration
out of the mire and save it from total
disgrace by passing the Wilson bill,
but they want to secure their own
bacon by lacking on the above amend
ment as a saving clause.

Bill Dalton, the notorious train
robber, man slayer and professional
highwayman, has at last succumbed
to the inevitable. For years the I'M
relenting force of law has been on
his trail and has at last succeeded in
running him to earth. He was To-
Gated near Elk, I. T., on the 9th
inst. and shot by Deputy United
States Marshal Hert while endeavor-
ing to effect his escape. He died as
he predicted he would die, with his
boots on and his six shooter in his
hand. Several thousand dollars re-
ward was offered for his capture.
If a price was placed on the head
of some of the political fends and
public robbers, whose heartless and
inhuman scheming to despoil the Ia
boring man of his honest earnings
and not only rob him of the necessary
food and clothing, but his home as
well, it might rid the country of a
band of thieves who have broken
more laws, indirectly taken the lives
of more persons, destroyed more
homes, and caused more suffering
than all the outlaws and bandits this
country has ever known.

Rare Presence of Mind.

ST knew sea captain who died some
years ago who displayed great presence
of mind at a most critical time" said
Henry S. Roberts of Boston. His ship
had caught fire. and the passengers and
crew were compelled to take to the boats
in hurry. The captain remained per-
fectly cool throughout all the confusion
and fright of the emharkation. and al
last every one but himself was got safe
ly into the boats By the time he was
ready to follow the passengers were wild
with fear and excitement. Instead of
hurrying down the ladder, the captain
called out to the sailors to hold on a
minute, and taking a cigar from his
pocket coolly bit the end off and lighted
it with a piece of the burning rigging.
Then he descended with great delibera-
tion and gave the order to shove off.
How could you stop to light cigar at
such moment?' he was afterward ask.
ed by one of the passengers. Because.
he answered, I saw that if I did not dc
something to divert your minds there
would likely be panic and upset the
boats. The lighting of a cigar took but
a moment and attracted the attention
of everybody. You all forgot yourselves
in thinking about my curious behavior,
and we got safely away. '-St Louis
Globe Democrat.

Danish Peasautry.

The Danish peasantry have a notable
love of order and symmetry in house
hold arrangement, placing their furni-
ture wherever possible in pairs and in
exactly corresponding positions. One
old peasant who had accumulated a lit
tie money and had been prevailed upon
to buy his daughter a piano seriously
considered buying another to place
against the opposite wall. rheirleea-
steads consist of great boxes, generally
painted red or green and heaped with
feather beds, between which they in
sinuate themselves winter and summer
If unable to afford so many feathers, the
underbed is of straw and receives 80
little attention that mice build their
nests in it and race back and forth
squealing shrilly without disturbing the
stolid peasant slumbers. The bedding is
not washed oftener than once or twice
a year.-Philadelphia Press.

AMBER Genuine amber is becoming
scarcer every year. and it will not be
long before a real amber cigar holder or
pipe stem will be rarity and a luxury.
The true amber is fossil gum, which
was produced in large quantities by
trees having a resinous sap, which
flowed down the trunks and gathered in
masses at the roots. 1t is found in the
ground of marshes and other places
where forests f1ourished in former times,
and is also secured by dredging. The
Baltic and Black Seas and the German
Ocean formerly produced it in consider
able quantities, but their supplies are
now pretty much exhausted. There is
a little satisfaction, however, in know
ing that the imitation amber is just as
good as the real. On this account we
will still be able to smoke pipes and use
cigar and cigarette holders that look
and taste just as good as genuine amber.
Save for these purposes little amber is
used in this country, but in India and
China large Jumps of the product are in
great demand. For some cause or other
an amber idol is far more highly priced
in these countries than even golden
gods, and as result the finest pieces of
amber go to the East to make deities
for the pagans.

GRAINS OF GOLD.

The meek enjoy almost perpetual
Sabbath.
When the judgment is weak the preju-
dice is strong.
False worship will kill the soul as
quick as no worship.
The greatest misfortunes men fall into
arise from themselves.
No man can be sound in his faith who
is unsound in his morals.
Every vicious act weakens right
Judgment, and defiIes the life.
The man who knows great deal nev-
er has to call attention to the fact.
He that worries himself with the
dread of possible contingencies will nev-
er be at rest.
The feeble tremble before opinion, the
foolish defy it. the wise judge it, the
skillful direct.
The man who loves his neighbor as
himself can put up with thousand
things no one else could stand.
There are some men who would rather
hear themselves preach than to listen to
an angel tuning MS narp.
Do well, but do not boast of it, for
that will lessen the commendation you
might otherwise have deserved.
The wisest man is he who doubts his
own Judgment with regard to the mo-
tiyes which actuate his fellow men.
If you would improve in wisdom, you
must be content to be thought foolish
for neglecting the things of the world.
You will find that the mere resolve
not to be useless, and the honest desire
to help other people, will also improve
yourself.

love is felt to be done for love.
There are infinite varieties not only
in mems mental powers, but in their NOR

The Medical Aspects of the Case Presented
to Those About to Marry.
The custom which obtains so general
" of taking a fatiguing journey as a
part of the nuptials is regarded by high
authority as one of the barbarisms OF
civilization. Let Us illustrate the inju-
rious physical tendencies by typical
case. During extremely cold weather
there occurs wedding, which, from
the standing of the parties. attracts
some attention. The happy couple, we
are told, are off for their wedding trip
to still more frigid section of country.
Though conscious of danger and dis
comfort. to some extent, which is great

travelling, they cheerfully assume the
risk and responsibility. as to all mar
ried couples a bridal tour seems to be
considered as absolutely essential TO give
the marital union an importance with
out which it would, in their opinion. be
unromantic and but partial marriage
The tour causes fatigue. exposure and
excitement, making regularity of life
impossible fact, the act involves the
reverse of all that the rules of health
and physiology require.
Again, it constantly happens in the
case of both sexes that slight indispo-
sition, which passed unnoticed in the
hurry of preparation. is aggravated to a
serious and even fatal extent by the ex-
citement, exposure and neglect on a
wedding tour. No man, for instance.
would think of postponing his marriage
on account of slight cold If he staid
at home afterward and took care OF him
self, it would pass away like other slight
colds, but often ON the bridal tour the
malady develops into chronic disease.
A prominent physician recently said:
Many cases of brides and bridegrooms

yer just after a wedding trip, which
had caused the early symptoms to be
