If the WORLDS investigation of
Saum 8 preparation for the law was not
correct as published will he or any of
the Omnicrat's friends give us the facts.
The only preparation the Omnicrat
claims for him before coming to Wa
Keeney is that he was farmer. A man
may be ever so good farmer and be all
that goes to make up a good citizen in
the point of integrity and yet be wholly
untitled for position as judicial Off
Ger. Law and farming requires quite
different training. We have never at
tackled Mr.. Saum as a citizen, but we
still insist that his preparation for
judgship has been inadequate and that
his inexperience as an advocate renders
his aspiration to the judicial ermine of
this district but little short of farce.

throne, surrounded by the princes and
potentates of the earth. 1t is very APP
propriate that the governor should talk
of the tomb, since his party is so near
he is doing on earth rather than what
his epitaph shall be. Since he has been
Crowned" Governor, this man from
Iowa has let no opportunity slip to sur
round himself with the princes, poten-
tates and past masters of Doodle, nor has
he ever refused to accept the brides of
the joint keepers, the gamblers and the
lottery men. If Lewelling will square
himself on this score, many volunteers
will cheerfully enlist to see that he gets
the right kind of an epitaph.-Miami

decline in corn of nearly IS point:
since July 1, the average for the entire
breadth being 69.1 against 81 for July
The condition for August, 1898, was 81
The great decline is due almost wholly
to the extensive and unprecedently
severe drouth that set in since the las
report, and to the hot, dry winds tina
swept over the states of Nebraska, Kan
sas, Iowa and parts of other western
states. In some localities the crop hal

ECCENTRIC AND INDEPENDENT.
Hans Won Bulow's Peculiar Frankness-
An Awful ReYcnge

Hans Won BuIow's Peculiar Frankness-
An Awful Revenge.
DR.. Hans Won Bulow has the credit OF hav-
ing been perhaps the most eccentric musician
that ever lived. His frankness was some
thing terrible. Music says of him that he was
accustomed TO meet q large class twice year
in Germany, at which many members were
listeners. while those who wished 70 play
might send in their names TO him.
Sometimes he chose those whom he pre-
ferred and sent ont for them, while the rest
waited in terror for their turn TO come. This
nervousness Of anticipation was not without
cause.
An awkward English girl one day went to
the piano, and. frightened almost out of her
wits, managed to play her piece after fash
ion.
Zach" he roared. "You play the easy
passengers with a difficulty that is simply
enormous
Once in playing at q concert he stopped
abruptly and ordered the ushers 70 turn the
piano around. His reason was asked and he
replied that a lady in the audience annoyed
him unspeakably by tanning herself out Of
time. 1t was suggested that it might be
simpler TO ask her 10 stop, but he replied that
he could not think OF such thing. So the
piano was turned.
So far as the audience was concerned, he
always made point Of doing exactly as he
pleased. On one occasion the orchestra which
he was conducting had just given a very long
Brahms symphony, which was quite beyond
the comprehension of any but the musicians
among the listeners.
When the audience failed to give him the
applause he expected he turned upon them
furiously:
What You do not like It? will teach
you to like it!'' and he had the entire compo-
sition played through again from beginning
to end. Brahms was always applauded after
that, if only in self-defense.
But when Leipzig audience insisted on re-
calling him. in spite of his repeated refusal 10
play again, he came forward and said
IF you do not stop this applause I will
play all Bach's forty-eight preludes and fugues
from beginning 10 end.'

TIE TrsEEs publishes to-day the history of
two OF the interesting churches Of the city.
One. the Oldest and wealthiest in its denomi-
nation-one OF the leading bodies Of the
northwest; the other young, but active
church Of the northeast; not very rich in this
worlds goods, but full of determination to
erect some day soon one Of the finest church
buildings in the city.
The Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church,
the mother OF all Methodist churches Of this
oitv, is known ali over the country. The
Metropolitan Baptist Church, the second of
that denomination built in the eastern part
OF the city, is almost as well known from its
struggles TO raise funds with which 10 erect q

Many OF the churches are still being nlled
with supplies. The families of many Of the
ministers are still away, the pastor himself
coming to the city Saturday evening, filling
his pulpit on Sunday, and leaving Monday
morning. After next Sunday the ministers
are ali expected TO be home, the vacation will

TRICKS OF PHILATELISTS.
Stamp. Collectors Become Bulls and Bears
and the Market is Lively

Stamp Collectors Become Bulls and Bears
and the Market is Lively
Philately has often been the arena Of
''bulls,'' and bears and in dealing III
stamps it is as necessary for one to be wide
awake as in specializing in the shares of re-
motely situated silver and other mines
which a ubiquitous gang of swiudlers peri
odically bring forward for the philanthropic
purpose of hlling their own pockets, says the
Fortnightly Review. An attempt at q cor
ner'' is said to have bee made in regard 10
the United States Columbian issue but it was
unsuccessful.
A similar move was made when the United
States government was about to cease the IS
sue OF l0-cent stamped envelopes. A certain
dealer bought 10 600 examples for which he
paid 81 900 and was sufficiently previous TO
issue circular to the effect that collectors
would be able TO buy examples after p certain
date at fancy figure. The postal depart
ment was inundated with protests from those
who had not taken time by the forelOck. The
department was furious at the trick and the
decision 10 suspend the issue was revoked
and $50. 900 more were printed Of The dealer
has learned by this tire that It is possible
to be too smart.
Another illustration may suffice to ''point
moral in this direction. certain Don
Juan Cardilas. Montevideo. collected over
100 900 examples of the Uruguay hve-cent
blue of 1888. with the figure of Gen. Santos.
But very large number Of this issue had
been struck of, and the unfortunate speeu-
lator would not have realized a profit on his
transaction until he had reached the age of
Methuselah, so, not content to wait. and,
finding il impossible 10 make this stamp rare
by fair or other means Don Cardillas set fire
TO the lot.
