THK stay-at-home Democrats did the
business in Kentucky. The Louisville
Courier-J0uraal points out that the
Democratic vote fell of in IS counties
out of l19 in the State, from l62,s0l in
1892 to l02, 900 in 1895. Probably in
the State the Democratic fallingoff will
be $4,000. So much for running free
coinage man on sound money platform.
The Republicans pol;ed about the same
vote they did in 1892. The Courier
Journal claims the Legislature will be
Democratic on joint ballot by from two
to five. If so this will save senator
from the wreck.

THR November number of The
Monthly illustrator and Home and
Country, is a wonderful piece of work,
1t more than justifies what was prom
ised when Home and Country and The
MoRthlg TiluStrat0r-twoa already popu-
lar magazines-were combined under
one management.
The initial was issued in October.
OF course, no new thing composed Of
two old things can be welded together
in a hurry and be beyond criticism
This was not to be expected
That rough lines would appear some-
where was quite natural. With time,
however, the desired results can be ac-
complished. We note with much pleas
ure the decided improvement which a
single moRth has wrought In this now
thoroughly excellent magazine. The
change is'delightiully apparent and
thoroughly enjoyable. 1t evidences the
up-to-date ideas of the new management
combining in this magazine-as in none
other published-the highest artistic
and literary merit, retaining at the
same time every feature likely to lie
popular with the plain people, the ordi-
nary magazine reader. Every subject
treated OF 10, even in the text-matter,
the work of the artist. No American
readers but viii lind something in The
Moathlg illustrator aud Home and
Country, for November. to interest
them personally. And we say this with
full knowledge of the value of language.

How n Snake Committed Suicide.

The following snake story is vouched
for by several persons whose yoracity is
beyond question, one Of them being
leading lawyer and another preacher:
On yesterday Arthur Elben and James
Woodoll, while in the mountains near
Addison. W. Va, caught largo black
snake. Tho reptile was IL big one, but
not remarkably large a string was
tied round it's neck, and it was brought
to Woodell's house, where it was hitch
ed to stake. Woodcll's children were
much interested in it and prodeied it
with sticks till the snake became wild
with rage. 1t being Il harmless variety,
1T was decided later to lot it go and see
what it would do.
The snake crawled off slowly till It
came to small apple troe, which it
climbed till the first limb was reached.
Out on this 1T crawlcd till it found 4
branch about twice rs large rs it's own
body. 1t stretched itself along the limb.
and doubling itself about the middle DO
gan to wind the rear half OF its body
round the front half till it was about
tho shape of two wires which lineman
has sphced. Tho winding process was
hopt up, the coils moving forward and
tightening till the middle and strongest
part of its body covered it's head. Then
the snake deliberately put on the pres
sure and squeezed its head till it burst
open and death relieved it, Whether the
snake was angcred by the abuse it re-
ceived or piqued at being captured, and
whether it had been reading Ingersoll's
theories on suicide, ARE questions which
the literary society will debate mt the
next weekly meeting. Louisville Cou-
rier- Journal.

STORIES OF THE DAY.
How SchuckcrS' joke Cost tho Railroad

How Sohuckcrs Jvke Cost tho Railroad
syndioates Nearly n Million Dollars
Samuel p. Shuokcrs died recently Mt
Wooster, o. He was brother of j. W.
Schuckers, private secretary Of Salmon
Z. Chase and brother-in law of John Fl.
Oberly, OK -oivil service commissioner.
An interesting incident is recalled by
Sohuckers' death which has never found
its way into the newspapers. Tho Incl
dent occurred number of years ago,
and during the timo of the sale of tho
Lake Shore railroad mt Cleveland it hap
poned that Schuckers and John McSwce-
ney, tho great criminal lawyer, met at
the snle. McSwconey had but short
time before made great hit by his po-
litical speeches ut Cleveland and Phila-
delphis and WAS attracting attention all
over tho country. At this particular
YOUNG Schuckers was III those days
yeritablo dude and very sprucy.
He went to Cleveland to have time,
as he always left Wooster to celebrate,
and was having good, glorious time
on this particular occasion He was
small and why i'll stature and always
carried q silk umbrella. 1t happened
that he met McSwceuey in the rotunda
just rs he had finished an argument
and whilc the sale Of the Lake Shore
railroad was going on. They stopped for
moment at the edge of the excited
crowd bidding in tho road There were
number of syndicates represented
foreign, Vanderbilt, Gould and others.
The bidding had reached So, 100, 900.
In Il spirit of devilishness young Schuck-
ers bid 1000, 600. In moment rush
was made toward the new bidder and
demand was made TO know what syndi-
cato no represented, His only reply was
with IL wave of his silk umbrella. 600
away from me. " The excited represent
atives of tho other syndicatcs asked for
recess, which was granted, and in go
minutes they came back, when the bid
was raised to a 900, 600 and sold.
Mr. Schuclsers' spruoy appearance and
being in company with the great Grim
inal lawyer had led them to believe he
represented some secret syndicate which
was trying 10 gain possession of the val
uable railroad property. Cincinnati

THE MECCA FOR divorce
Oklahoma Lawyers Doing Very
Rushing Business.
One Law Firm that Expects to Collect
$4,000 in Fees from Divorce
Clients This Year. Only Four
Weeks Necessary for the
Painless Operation.

A man with ticket to Arkansas
City, Kan, and cosmopolitan air
alighted from the train from the east
and after breakfast sauntered to the
office of the ticket seller and asked for
ticket TO Oklahoma. III reply to the
question what particular part Of the
land of the bandits and sandstorms no
desired to visit, he replied that it made
no particular difference to him and re-
marked to the ticket seller:
am from New York, seeking a di-
voroe, one Of the while you wait and
without-pain kind, 80 you will please
ticket me to some quiet point where the
divorce mill always grinds and never
tires, and l will try TO do the rest. -
The jouEneyings OF divorce seekers to
Oklahoma are simply astonishing. On
the through trains are to be found
numerous passengers who are silent and
indifferent to all local surroundings.
A member of a legal firm. having one
member in each of the thres largest
towns in the territory, informed the
correspondent that his firm would at the
present rate collect $50, 600 this year
from divorce clients alone. In Guthrie
there is largo hotel which makes IL
speciality Of this class of patrons, and
its guests are designated as tho divorce
colony. Special hotel rates nre secured
by the lawyers for their clients for the
four weeks necessary TO the quick and
painless operation of divorce Many Of
these visitors are registered under as
sumed names and are credited to almost
any other city than the one where they
reside.
The romances resulting from four
weeks sojourn i'll this colony are almost
as varied as they are numerous One of
the most exciting shooting incidents in
Oklahoma City in recent months WAS
between Buffalo sporting man and the
lawyer who had just assisted his wife to
procure divorce While attending some
of the early spring races the man from
Buffalo learned that his wife was visit
ing Oklahoma City. Thinking that it
was about time she returned home, no
suddenly landed in that wild and wooliy
town. He quickly lcisncd that not only
had his wife secured an absolute divorce
from him, but, further, that she and tho
lawyer We're to be married on the fol-
lowing day. The Buffalo man went gun
ming and is now III the hospital, whore
he is rapidly recovering from danger
ons bullet wound, while the newly mar
ricd couple are lowering about the Gold
ell Gate.
The law under which the territorial
courts are organized is both peculiar and
practical. The probate judge issues all
Licenses to marry and also superintends
the divorce mill, signing all DEGREES Of
divorce. In some counties, notably at
the territorial capital, the probate Judge
purchases his marriage license blanks by
the hundred and his blank divorces by
the Thousand. This particular judge has
several times made the mistake when
applied to for marriage permit of ask
ing tho applicant whether he had yet
consulted a lawyer rs to the specific
grounds on which he made his applica-
ton. York Sun
