9vORv OF A WEDDING.
And . Present That Turned Out to BE .
White Elephant.

know a man named Jack Barnes,
who w..- married one Thanksgiving
day, writes Howard Fielding in the
Boston Herald. His wife had quite
number of rich relations One of them
was in the furniture business. His pres
ent was undoubtedly the handsomest Of
all. 1t was a mahogany bedstead big
enough for Mormon elder and carved
in the highest style of the art. The
happy couple We're enraptured when
they saw il. The exhibition occurred in
the store of the furniture man, for of
course such thing couldn't be sent t.
the brides fathers house like sugar
spoon in a box. An exprossman who
subsequently moved the bedstead toll
me that il weighed nine tons, but |
think he exaggerated. Moreover, it was
certainly a. massive apiece of furniture
as ever l saw. On this account perhaps
the generous donor had been unable 70
sell it and had had it numbering up his
salesroom until he had grown sick of
the sight of it.
The bridegroom gave directions for
its removal To the Harlem fiat He then
thanked his wife's uncle for this mag
nificent gift with tears in his eyes.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Barnes returned
from their wedding journey, they found
the mahogany bed already established
in their Hat They knew it was there
because they Were unable TO open the
parlor door The bed was inside, and
there was an alley foot wide all the
way around it between il and the wall.
This may seem improbable 10 person
who does not know much about New
York flats of the $40 month grade,
but the sophisticated will only wonder
that the bed got in there at all. | am
told that the men who set il up had to
climb out of window afterward but
/ think-this Is an exaggeration, because
the tall, carved bedboard entirely COW
cred the two windows and thus cast
gloom over the otherwise happy home.
They found the furniture which had
previously been in the parlor divided
betweeA two bedrooms and completely
filling them.
Housekeeping under these circum-
stances was not what this young woman
had been led to expect. In "a hours she
had demanded larger fiat. Mr.. Barnes
went fat hunting The adventures Of
the Wandering Jew are mere stroll
compared 10 those of the fiat hunter in
New York. Jack was looking for bed
room big enough to hold the mahogany
bedstead. lie tells me that this piece of
furniture was so big that he could hard
ly carry a memorandum of its dimen-
sions in his largest overcoat pocket

Against Admission.

The Washington bureau of the Globe Democrat, which Is one Of the most reliable at the national capital, sends out special to that paper in which it is stated that the president is making his opposition to the sd- mission oi any more territories felt among Democratic senators. He has caused il to be known by them that he is emphaticaIly against :he admis- sions of Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma.
 No exceptions are made. The ban in the presidents mInd applies to one and all. This opposition is not of a negative sort.
 With tine same kind of oveImaster- ing tactics which has enabled him 10 dictate on other questions Of policy, lhe president proposes 10 stop the admission fever ii Ee can without waiting for the time to veto.
 The idea of adding eight more to the already large collection Of western silver senators seems to the president preposterous. He thinks 1t is putting g the populous east with great interests at the mercy of the only partially de- veloped west.

Muscle and yigOr--a Difference

Many muscular men succumb to iatigues borne with ease by persons far their interiors in physical strength. Muscle does not ipply vigor. In ia q. Il is not difficult of proof that athls tes do not live as long nor enjoy as good health as the average individual who Is visoGous--ihat Is to say, whose digestion and sleep are unimpaired, whose nerves are tranquil, and who has no organic tendeu,y to disease. These requisites of vigor are conferred upon those inherently weak. no less than upon those debilitated through wasting d cease, by a thorough, per
 sisten; course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the leading national tonic, endorsed and recommended by phys icians oi eminence. IL will not endow
 you with the muscle of Corbett, but it will iniuse energy into your system and renew the active and heslthful performance of it's functions. It averts and cures malarial, rheumatic and kidney complaints and overcomes dyspepsia, constipation, liver trouble and nervousness. r

In Good Hands.

The services of MT. Peter Moore of White River near old Fort Fucker have been secured by the owners of the Company Farm at Wilcox and he will move onto it in few days. A contract has been signed for five years service.
 MT. Moore has made a study of irri- gation in new countries and will bring years of experience to assist him in making a success of this latest venture.
 He located the first ranch on the Boise river near Boise City, Idaho, in 1863 and remained there till 1875, when he moved to St. Johns, Arizona, where he opened the Mineral Springs ranch.
 In 1876 he opened the Moore ranch near Fort Thomas.
 In 1886 he went to Hereford in this county, and the Green and Pack ard ranches show what water aud iu- dustry can do for soil.
 We predict that he will make success of the Wilcox farm as he did with the others above mentioned.
 The company will place a new gasoline plant on the ground and con tidently promise to furnish two hun dred and fifty miners inches oi water as soon as it gets to running.

The Dollar of our Daddies.

The silver dollar, which IS sgain 8 disturbing element in tbe financial pros- perity of the country, seems to nave q lot Of trouble in its day and generatl n and IS now getting back at the United States treasury with alarming persis tency. Some of the facts concerning # are of immediate interest and will beer summing up. Here IS the chronological history of the silver dollar.
 Authorized to be coined, act of April ?. l792; weight 4l6 grains; tineness, S924.
 Weight changed, act of January IS, 1887, to 4l2115 grains.

 The first siver dollar was put in circu- latiou in 1794.
 Ut was crude design" says histor- ian. "On the obverse or face of th 8 coin was imprinted the head of young lady facing to the right. Her hair was flowing to such an extent that she looked as if taken in gale of wind.
 Ia 1796 Congress stepped in to the aid of the typical damsel and tied her halr up with b of ribbon.
 The fifteen stars were after this re- duced to th orignal thirteen in recog- sitiOn of the number of states.
 In 1886 the design was again changed ard the silver dollar bore.the full figure of neatly dressed woman in a flowing garment. The designer forgot, how ever, to put in the thirteen stars and the coin was soon called in. Any person now in possession of one of these dollars has valuable souvenir.
 The new deign had the lady surroun- ded by the stars. It was an improve ment on its predecessor. but the air of the female figure was defiant and stiff.
 The dollar of 1898 vas the frs: artis- tic piece of silver coired by the United States mint
 On April g, 1894, the first dollar having the legand, "Iu God we trust," was coined.
 In 1873 the era of the trade dollar of 900 finess began, That troublesome dollar ran its cratic course in just five years.
 In 1878 the liberty dollar made its ap- pqararce. Miss Anna w. Williams, teacher in the Girls Normal School at Philadelphia. sat for the portrait, her profile being then considered the most perfect obtainable. Her classic features still 6acorata the eilyer dollar
