stripes and much jet or other glittering

contrasts in materials, trimming or

that however well a costume may APP

POLITICAL DEMONSTRATIONS.
The "WOuld-Be's" Arc Getting in Their
Work Early.

The "Would-Be's" Arc Getting in Their
Work Early.
The political prophet or son of a
prophet is everlastingly getting in
his work already. Among the many
schemes that are developing, Deacon
Shannon of the Huronite, says that he
is going to have Judge Edgerton die.
The old man out of the way, and
there will be a long line Of promotions.
Judge Fuller is to succeed Edgerton,
Gaffey is to take Fuller's place on the
supreme bench and Boucher, of Eu-
reka, is to have Gatfey's place on the
circuit. This is the first move on the
checker board. Now, after all this
has been done, there IS left a va
cancy on the board Of regents,
caused by Boucher's promotion. The
deacon says it will be filled by Major
Moore - but this is doubtful. No
money in it for Moore. But even if
the Major accepts, it is not said who
will fill the Moore place made vacant
in Mitchell, or the Mitchell place
made vacant in Moore.
The sage of Deuel., Gary county,
adds chapter to the deacon's prayer
by citing Sheldon to Kyle's place in
the U. S. senate, and the great and
only Nyrum Phillips to Sheldon's job
as chief mogul of the state, Coe [.
Crawford to Pickler's job in congress.
This program lets Herried and Ster-
ling out. 1t also does up good many
other states, and yet there are no Sc
rious objections to letting them all
soar this year, but next?

Wish They Were Men

Rev. Charles II. Parkhurst has the
following in the April Young Ladies'
Home Journal on THE New Woman"
"All the female congresses in the
world might combine in colossal mass
meeting and vote with passionate
show of hands that woman's sphere is
coincident with the spherity of the
globe or even of all the heavens; but
the idiosyncrasy of her physical build
and the limitations essentially bound
up in it will sponge out her mass
meeting resolutions as fast as she can
pass them. 1t is well enough for her
to say that she wishes to be a man;
but she is not, and till she is, she
might as well succumb to the fact
that God and Nature had very different
intentions for her from what He had
for her brothers, and that He recorded
his intentions in way that He has
taken some pains to prevent her being
able to forget. am really sorry for
those women that wish they were
men; | wish they were, it would be
such relief to the rest Of US, as well
as to them"

deal. The general public has been
invited to be present and the church
will no doubt be crowded.
