we must go out. Our laws have invited

home and Mrs Ckills, who was at the
country place at Wooton, was summoned.
DIR. Da Costa called in Doctors Leidy
and Morris, and these three issued
statement that Mr.. Chds' illness was
nothing more than an attack of vertigo,
arising from indigestion, from which he
would soon recover. The news of his
illness brought hosts of inquiring fxends
from the city to the door and hundreds
of anxious inquiries by mail and tele-
graph from those abroad. To all was
given the assurance that Mr.. Childs was
not seriously i'll. On the following Sun-
day night, however, the physicians reluct-
antly admitted that paralysis of the lower
limbs accompanied the attack which, as
the Associated Press had previously an
nounced, was in reality second attack
of apoplexy. From that time on there
have been alternating periods of hope
and fear, as the semi-daily bulletins an.

Topeka Breeze: When Steve Osborn
was making his last race for Judge, up
in the northwest, his opponents began
to circulate the story that he was a
poker player. Steve at once wrote a
number of letters to such exemplary
Christians as Dick Walker, George Fin
ley and Jim Hallowell, for vindication.
Their replies came thick and fast. They
replied with great earnestness that any
one who had seen him try to open jack
pot with pair of tens would know not
only that he was not poker player, but
absolutely did not understand the first
rudiments of the game. Steve at once
called meeting of the citizens, and,
after referring to the charge which had
been made against him, he took out and
read, one by one, the letters he had re-
ceived. ''Now ladies and gentlemen,
there are my proofs. Are you satisfied"
asked Steve. 1--WE are" said deacon
