Lalt Lake ON the way TO join Sanders's
srmy, was in Topeka today seeking
assistancs from the local home guard.
He brought his men through by bar
gaining with the train crews of freight
divisions.
At home guard" meeting in the
Populist league rooms here, G. G. Glenn
ems said: 81 do not hesitate to state
that one of the objects had in view
when | advocated the raising of home
guards was to have force available so
that in case the troops or the National
guard are called out to stop Common
wesers anywhere west of the Missis-
sippi river, we can stop the troops or
National guard"
Ex-Adjutsnt General Artz spoke of O
collision between the citizens and Com
monwealers OF Leavenworth and thought
tie governor should call out the militia.
''If the governor intends not to do this, !"
he said, 81 believe the brave sons Of
Kansas have manhood enough in them
to rise in their might and
say to that little patch
up there, that the laboring men
will go through their city when they
please, aud ii they try to stop them, we
will wipe your city out of existence
Clemens then introduced the follow.
ing resolution, which was adopted:
Resolved, That Captain Hunter be
and is hereby instructed to tender the

Captain sampson Before tho Investigat-
ing Committee.
WAsHIEGToN, May 25.-Capt. w. T.
Sampson, chief of the bureau OF ord
nance of the navy department, appeared
today before the house committee in
vestigating the armor plate irregulari-
ties. He said ne did not consider the
blow-holes serious defect.
Captain Sampson related how suspi-
cion was arouted of the soundness Of the
plates furnished. They were subjected
to tests, and Captain Sampson found the
suspicious circumstance thst the plate
invariably improved on the second test.
The conclusion was irresistible that the
plates were being surreptitiously doc
tored between tests.
In answer to questions as to the mo-
tive for the fraud, Captain Sampson said
he believed the heads OF the company
knew nothing OF the operations. A Mr.
Schwab was general superintendent. He
had certain amount of stock in the
company, 80 his interests would be sd-
vaDced by the acceptance OF plates.
The investigation adjourned until
Monday at IL O'Clock, when Captain
Sampson will reappear.

ming with its many booths tastefully dec
Grated, its windmills whose fans were
studded with electric lights, its Ferris
wheel in miniature, and other interest

are of course used to display the pro.
ducts of manufacturers of all kinds of
foods. The attendance was large and
those present ate and drank to, their
hearts co intent at the exhibitors ex-
pense. The American Cadet band dis
coursed fine music all the evening.

American Theater Audiences.

Taken all in all, American audiences are
much more quiet and attentive than Eng
lish audiences, and the actors are nearly
always sure of a respectful hearing. Now
and then there is some annoyance occasion
ed by the chatting of theater parties in the
boxes, as was the case one evening this
week, when the occupants of some of the
boxes talked and laughed SO increasingly
and SO audibly that they not only failed
themselves to follow the play, in which
they probably were not interested, but pre-
vented those who came to the theater for
the sake of the play from hearing what
was going on on the stage, while the &C.
tors were equally disturbed and could not,

The following order was passed in re-

average rank of the several pupils in all
| the studies shall also be kept in the said

That the principal at the close of each
two months, by properly prepared

Would Adjourn Himself.

Mr.. Stone, the Portland piano tuner,
who does all of c. o. Millikin's work in
Saco, was employed the other afternoon
in screwing up to regulation pitch the
piano used by the kindergarten class on
the lower floor of the Saco City Hall.
After the piano was tuned to his salts
faction, Mr.. Stone sat down and INDUCED
in two OF three romanzas, couple OF
Hungarian fantasies, several interludes
in B fiat and that sort of thing. He was
just getting down to work in pretty good
shape when a deputy sheriff hove him
himself in through the door and asked
the piano player what he was up to. Mr..
Stone said he was just amusing himself
and the sheriff said it was all right, but
the court up stairs could not stand it,
Good heavens, are they holding court
upstairs said the astonished tuner.
Tell the judge he needn't adjourn, I'll
adjourn myself"

out. Iii all about two hundred young
men and women were in the great party.

nautical expression is, none of the young
people knowing where they were to be

A QUEER ENGLISH DAIRY.
Its Limited Supply of Milk Snapped Up at
Is Cents q Pint.

81 OcAtH u AAbs
In an important thoroughfare in the
west end, London, is the only dairy in
and about the city where asses milk can
be procured. This fluid, as is well known,
is a valuable remedy in certain complaints,
but only the rich can indulge in it very
freely, for it costs IS cents pint.
The reason for this, as London report
er found out on visiting the milking sta
bles, is it's STOW production. In the stud Of
milk asses nine animals were counted,
and though they are MIXED four times a
day each animal yields barely two pints
through the "a hours.
The milk is very thin and slightly sweet,
with quite the flavor of coacoanut milk.
Consumptive persons and delicate infants
are it's chief consumers. Tt is both nour-
ishing and very easily digested. A fea-
ture of its therapeutic use is that when pre-
scribed for adults it has to be done in an
underhand way, as natural repugnance
exists with most persons against it's use.
1t is told that one fashionable London
woman suffered an actual relapse when
told what medicine" she had been drink
ing in ignorance.
1.-THE winter is our busy season." the
manager of the stables is quoted as say
ing, especially during the foggy weather,
but unfortunately it is extremely difficult
to obtain the milk just then.
"Sold outright CD customer, any OF
the animals you see here would realize
over $50 and would probably be MIXED by
the patients own servants, who do not
like the job, in nine cases out Of ten.
Many consumers, however, prefer to hire
an ass at guinea q week and get all the
| milk they can, and I have sent several as
far as Colchester, Brighton, Exeter and
even Scotland, the customer paving all
the expenses.
"Persons put this costly fluid to curious
uses. One lady had two quarts day reg
ularly for nearly six years. and we could
never find out what she wanted it for I'M
| til after she went to America. when il
TRANSFERRED that the milk was used as
| face wash.
We also have military gentleman OF
our books who orders pint every morn
| ing, and this appears on his breakfast ia
BILE for ordinary use, while q, certain ia.
nous dandy has been known to instruct
his valet to mix the milk with backing,
SO as TO lmpart more than usually bril-
liant gloss to his shoes.
! The orders are always given in advance,
and after the first milking, at 6 O'Clock il
! the morning, the milk is put up as required
| INTO glass bottles, which in turn are placed
IN wooden cradles and carried by a strap
so That the risk Of breakage is very small
