The Crow Was Loaded.

Dick Willoughby relates an amusing in- cideD6 that happened to him at Funter bay.
 Dick was driving a tunnel on ledge back of his cabin and was in tho habit of leaving stick of giant powder on a rock in a sunny place at the mouth of tho tun- Incl to thaw out. On several occasions when he went to get his powder it had mys- teriously disappeared, and Dick concluded to watch proceedings and wait for the thief.
 He laid the stick of powder in its usual place and had waited but a short time when he saw q raven sail out of tree and swoop down upon the explosive. The bird tore at the tough paper cover until it could get at the powder, then began to greedily deyour it. Giant powder is made up of nj troglycerin, sawdust and grease, and a whole stick of it makes a very hearty breakfast for a raven. The stick had nearly disappeared when Dick thought it time to avcnge his loss and was in tho act of raising his rife when tho raven gave defiant cav and arose in the air with the remainder of the stick of powder grasped in its claws. When up some dis tance, the powder slipped from the birds grasp and came tumbling to the ground. Dick saw the powder drop and dodgod be- hind bowlder, fearing it would explode when it struck the rocks. However, it did not. The raven perched in a tree, and Dick drew bead and let drive. Immedi- ately following the report of the gun Dick was not little startled at receiving quite a shock and hearing a second and louder report, while tho mir was filled with small bits of raven meat and feathers.
 After the smoke of battle had cleared away, all that Dick could find of that ra- ven wero the bill and claws and bunch of black feathers Tho shock of the bull let passing through the birds body Lad exploded tho powder it had deyo' sd- Juneau (Alaska) News.

Made Him Homesick.

When the first Turkish minister, Mele Mele, came to Washington, grand ball was planned in his honor. Hundreds of invitations were sent out, and nearly everybody who received ono came, for there was much curiosity to sec the impor- tant Turk in his native dress. Particular ly were persons anxious to examine tho splendid dress turban which had been de. scribcd and talked about made. as it was, of plaster of paris, yet looking like the finest muslin, When tho evening arrived, Mcle Molo seemed to be tho only ono who was not having a good time. He stood looking as if ho did not know that every body was admiring him and altogether very much bored till suddenly ho caught a glimpse of a big negro woman, who was assisting in serving the supper. Instant. ly ho rushed up to her. and throwing his arms about her neck gave her good kiss. explaining that he could not help it, she re- minded him so much of his best and most expensive wife, and while the company thought it n very odd thing to do every body could understand that he was home sick man. and nobody minded iG in tho least.

HE EARLY RISING t4AeIr.
It May Be All Right, but Let Your Neigh
 bors Rest.

bors Rest.
 The praises of early rising have been sung from time immemorial, and man. kind, in that indolcnt, unqaestioning spirit which is so ready and willing to ac- cept almost any theory or dictum without troubling itself to ascertain if the enco- miums bestowed upon it are merited, has taken it for granted that it is a cardinal virtue to leave ones bed at daybrealz. But that can hardly be a virtue which de- velops in the people who practice it dis position to render themselves obnoxious to their fellow mortals
 Now, it has been observed that the first impulse of a man. woman or child who is addicted to the early rising habit upon quitting his couch is to awaken and keep awake as many other people as possible. Sometimes this abnormal predileotion seeks the adventitious aid of lawn mower, sometimes it utilizes the chopping block or the wood saw, and sometimes ngain it brings to bear hammer and nails. and in extreme and violent cases it bangs upon the piano. Evidently tho object sought is to make of ones self an alarm clock to arouse the neighborhood and it matters little apparently what kind of a noise is made so long as 1t is a noise of some sort
 This tendency to noise on the part of the early riser is not confined to the human species It is found also among the early risers of the brute creation. The cock tho earliest of risers, is notable offender, with his shrill clarion. He sometimes carries the virtue of early rising to such excess that he apparently does not turn in at all, but keeps himself up, and by consequence his racket all night long. Tho calf assails the dawn with his exasperatinG blcat; tho COW is mp bright and early with her mournful lowing; tho horse neighs, and the tuneful mule awakens the echoes with his stentorian heehaw.
 In word, be it among man or the lower animals, it is always the same. The early riser is 0 pestilential nuisance, and instead of being praised for his vrtues which he has not, he deserves the disappro- bation and execration of all with con- sciences sufficiently tranquil to be ablc to sleep in the morning hours but for the malicious Interference of the early riser.
 The only humane person is he who sleeps until the early sun is high in tho heavens. and he gets his reward as he goes along, for he not only permits others to en- joy sleep when sleep is most enjoyable, but ho at the same time enjoys it himself.- Boston Transcript

A BAD WRECK
A Passenger Tratn Goes Down and Seven Deaths Reported as
 the Result.

TExARKsEA, Ark, July g The south bound passenger train from Dallas, over the Texas and Pacific road, due here at 7:l5 p. m. i, was wrecked near Queen City today shortly before o'clock. The train con- sisted of a baggage car, smoker and one passenger coach, and it is reported that seven people were killed as a result of the accident. Among those who met death were the engineer, Fireman Allen, Express Messenger Marshall and the night opera tor. Three passengers are also reported killed.
 The information received here was mea- ger, but was of such import that a special train was at once made up and started for Queen City, which is twenty miles from this city. Dr. J. A. Lightfoot, the com pany's physician, and a corps of assistants were hastily summoned and placed aboard the special train, which left about p. m. The Texas and Pacific is the southern con- necton of the Iron Mountain and the cannon ball train running between St. Louis and El Paso.

HIS ATTORNEYS CRY INsUFFlCIENCY OF
 EVIDENCE.
 CHICAGO, July 23.-A motion was made before Judges Woods and Grosscup in the United States court this morning to dismiss the charges of contempt of court against President Debs, Vice. President Howard |, Secretary Keliher and Director Rogers of the American Railway union. The case was argued at treat length, but not finished.
 The first move was made by Attorney Gregory for the defense, who asks that his client be released on account of an insuffi- ciency of evidence. The judge calls for the reading of information and answe rs thereto. The reading of these documents was loug and tedious. The informrtion charged that Debs and his associates con- tinued interfering with the employees of railroads and ordering strikes after he had been enjoined from so doing, and contained long array of tele- grams, purporting to be signed by E.. V. Debs, ordering out and encouraging strikers at a date subsequent to tine serving of the injunction.
 The defendants entered flat denial and disclaim all Knowledge of telegrams pro- duced. They averred that they had no power to order & strikes ut could only ad- wise, and if their advice was accepted it was voluntarily done.
 Upon these statements the arguments were based

AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
clEvELAND's CABINET OFFICERS DISC

CLEVELAND'S CABINET OFFICERS DISCUSS
 THE sITUATIoN-GoRMAN CALLS.
 WASHINGTON, July 23.-Secretaries Gres- ham, Lamont, Smith and Postmaster Gen. eral Bissell were in conference with tue president at the White House this evening. The tariff situation was reviewed, but 50 far as can be learned no conclusion was reached. Secretary Carlisle was at the White House late in the afternoon,
 Senator German visited the White House this forenoon by an invitation of the presi- dent, and while nothing official can be learned of what transpred; it is stated that the president endeavored to dissuade Cor man from his announced purpose to make a speech upon the presidents letter to Wilson and urged that the tariff bill be allowed to go back 10 the conferees without debate. MT. Gorman made his speech, however, and it is proba- bic that several other speeches will be made, probably by Messrs. Voorhees,, Mills and Brice and perhaps Hill. The ad- Visibility of holding caucus was discussed by several democratic senators this after noon, but no conclusion was reached and It IS probable none will be held.
 Judging from the statement of one of the managers of the bill as made tonight there appears to be no change in the situation ; 1t still remains fraught with danger to the bill. Much depends upon the persistence with which MT. Villas pushes his motion to strike out the differential duty on refined sugar, and the attitude of this senator led number of democrats today to make a statement that it looked as if the adminis- tration wanted to see this action taken.
 It Is known tonight, however, that if an effort IS made to push this motion, a mo- tion that will surely prevail, some of the democrats are prepared to take the respon- sibility of settling the fight at once and for all by accepting the Dernir resort, and making the motion to indefinitely postpone the conference report.
 The positive statement was made by a democratic leader tonight that this motion will only be made when all efforts have been made to get the bill back to the con- ference unchanged in any respect, and if made by democrat this senator said that 1t would prevail beyond any possible doubt.

There was no trouble at the works or yio- lence threatened against the few people who started to work. Only six of the laun- dry girls are paid for work this month

Men Who Try to Save Time by Jumping
 From Moving Cars.
 "It is an interesting thing to watch tho way people get off theso bridge cars, " said the confirmed Brooklynite, seating himself near the door and filling up tho adjoining seat with his bundles. There's enough energy wasted here every day to run the whole cable, and nobody gets any good out of it at that. You just watch the people as the train pulls in at the platform. There are always a dozen or moro men who crowd out to the gate, and long be- fore the train stops they open it and jump to the platform. One or two of 'em- usual ly tumble down, which give those follow ing a good chance to trip over them. Those that do keep their feet immediately began to hustle to keep up with the train. ''They never sec the fallacy of jumping off prematurely until after they have jumped Then it suddenly dawns upon them what idiots they were to get off the car when it is still going at q faster pace than they can walk with comfort. Being convinced of their own idiocy, the next thing is to keep other people from realia- ing it. They must keep up with the train at any cost, so they stride or trot accord ing as they arc long or short of limb, and
 
 with the platform that they would have stucl. to with profit and much saving of wear and tear
 'The queer thing about it is that ex- perience never teaches them anything bet ter. As soon as some paretic opens the gate all the other imbecilcs troop out aft CT him. Hello, here we are at the plat form
 And the confirmed Brooklynite gather ing up his bundles and packages, rushed for the car door, pushed through the gate, leaped from the moving train to the plat form along with dozen others to give tho car good race as far as the head of the stairway, where he suddenly slows up and walks leisurely down the stairs, thought fully mopping from his face the beads of perspiration brought out by his wasted energy New York Sun.
