LITTLE THINGS FOR LITTLE ONES.

II you have two children, one robust
and strong and the other delicate and
sickly, never let them sleep together.
The stronger child will draw from the
strength of the more delicate, and the
effect would be disastrous. Neither
should young child sleep with one who
is very much older.
II the baby is not strong and does not
digest well the little food that it takes,
try bathing ii in cod liver oil. The stuff
smells horribly, but it will generally
strengthen weak person after few
applications. Rub the child's body all
over with it, just as you would grease
il for cold, but use more Of the oil and
rub it il well, then wrap it In clean
linen. This treatment has proven quite
afficacious for adults who could not take
the oil inwardly.

Bicycling has suddenly come into
good repIte with sWeldom. For a long
time IL was only common folk that sped
noiselessly along the graveled roads
and country lands. Now it is whispered,
and rather loudly, that if one freQuents

1t was as difficult to adopt the new
costume as it was to adopt the wheel.
And it needed the few brave spirits
again to bring the innovation into the
light And no wonder most OF the sex
shrank from the new patterns, for they
were so ugly in the beginning-the
greater part OF them-and the girls
seemed to have lost all their charm.
But pretty soon few notifications
and softenings made more womanish
suit: and then the skirt was gradually
abandoned. Now the skirt is the ex-
ception among bicycle riders.
The material used is generally, al
though not Invariably, a heavy one.
Serge, flannel and the rough plaid
tweed, in neutral gray or brown tints,
are the favorites. For dark suits the
fine serges are used, and for very warm
weather there is nothing prettier than
black China silk or mohsir. The trouser
must be made very full, so that when

NOT A POPULIST.
Kelly Says he is Not Electi0neering
for the Fanatics-scheflifer' Com
mand Under Arrest

Green River, Nyo., May 1.-two hun
dred Scheffieir Industrials reached here
in stolen train last night, and camped
near the railroad yards. The provisi ons
of the army are exhausted and many of
the men are drinking and all are in an
ugly mood. They want Marshal Rankin
to arrest them 80 that the government
will feed and take them to Cheyenne.
Rankin has no authority to arrest them
and has asked instructions from Judge
Riner to discourage the Industrials.
The railroad company wants the party
here taken back to Idaho and turned over
to officers of the United States court
there. If this is done part of the
regular troops will be necessary to en-
force the order, as the industrials will fight
against going westward. The citizens Of
Green River will not contribute any
provisions to the army here and speedy
action will have to be taken by the rail
road company or officers of the United
States court to prevent them from seiz-
ing another train.
scHEFFLIER IN JAIL.
Cheyenne. Eight of Marshal Rankin's
deputies arrived here to-day with "Gen."
Schetfiier and eighteen other Industrials
arrested at Cakeville, and they were lodged
in Jail. Schefliier says that he was not in
command of the army and is on his way
to Topeka where he lives. The railroad
officials are anxiously awaiting orders
from Washington to move troops and Il
special train is kept ready for that pur-
pose.

Cleveland, May 15.-Delegates to the

house at II O'Clock. The Illinois opera
tors and part of the Pittsburg district

whatever terms, if any, may be agreed
upon they must be ratified by the absen-
tees before they become effective.
FAMILIES BEGIN TO SUFFER.
Frostburg, Mo.-The miners strike has
already had depressing effect upon
Frostburg. Fully 1900 men in this and
surrounding towns, are idle and large
number of families are on the verge of
suffering. The miners claim they can
control the situation, in face of some of
the mines continuing work. They hold
that the coal famine will raise the price
of coal in the market, but that this will
only restore the so per cent rate. The
strikers are doing their work very quietly.
