SILVER CONFERENCE.

United States Senator j. P. Jones
is strongly of the opinion that there
will be separate silver party in
the campaign of next year. The
formation of such party is to
grow out of the coming silver con-
ference at Chicago he thinks.
The Chicago conference is to
take place some time near the
Christmas holidays, in the hope
that it may have an effect on con-
gress. A call is now being prepar-
cd by the executive committee
which grew out of the Memphis
conference of last summer. Mr..
Jones is particularly anxious for
the conference to be held and ex-
pressed himself as follows on the
outcome of the elections:
81 think that the elections just
held have demonstrated beyond
the possibility of any doubt what,
ever that the issue in the campaign
of 1896 will be fatty between the
champions of gold and silver; that
finance and not tariff is to be the
only question, and that it can no
longer be settled within party
lines.
"The gold and silver men knitted
each other in these elections re-
gardless of party. 1t is an object
lesson to silver men all over the
nation. If the battle between mot
ais be not forced now on a straight
issue and along unmistakable lines
the gold brokers of London and
New York will dominate the gov.
ernment of tho country for the
next four years.
"The best thing for the silver
men to do is to get together al
Chicago and outline a plan of or
ganization. The people have been
pretty we'll educated and they
know quite well what free and un
limited coinage of silver means tc
their business interests. In my
opinion a distinctively silver party
could win"

NEWS OF PEN AND PENCIL,

Mr.. RICHARD LIE GALLIENEE, the de-
cadent Yellow Book poet, has been en-
gagged to lecture in America next fall.
ANTHONY TRoLLoPE was in the habit
of writing three hours day, and COM
posed one thousand words an hour.
THE fact that sixty-two literary
women sat down to dinner together in
London recently is viewed by leader
writer for an English daily as ominous
and portentous to the future of man in
literature.
PAUL POTTER has gone to the Adiron-
dacks to study the scene of the play he
is writing with Bill Nye. The play
will deal with the adventures of a
hunting party who spent the summer
in the Adirondacks and met with mis-
haps.
AMONG the many autograph letters
of authors preserved by the Tauchnitz
house in Leipsic is one from Thackeray,
in which he says: Don't be afraid of
your English, my dear man. A letter
containing s. d. is always in pretty
style"

JUDGE ZANE.

The Denver NeUS says: The
election of Judge Zane as the first
chief justice of the new State of
Utah is a notable incident in Amer
ican politics. Judge Zane was for
many years chief justice of the ter
ritory, and had the enforcement of
the anti-polygamy, anti-church
laws in his court. He was stern
and unyielding but just judge.
Although bitterly assailed, al
most hated by the Mormons, his
personal or judicial integrity was
never called in question. He sat
on the bench as the representative
of the majesty of the federal law,
which he vigorously inforced. He
is now elected chief justice by the
same people who once abused and
feared him.
1t is tribute to judicial ability
and integrity seldom witnessed,
and coming from the people it is a
demonstration of magnanlmity on
their part worthy of marked COM
mendation, and an evidence of
good faith at which the whole
country can well rejoice.

Costly Chicken Diet.

Recently ]. E. Thurmond, a wealthy
farmer, who lives between Louisiana
and Bowling Green, Mo-, on removing
the "sparkler" from his shirt bosom
placed it in safe keeping on the mantle,
but on seeking it a little while after
ward the costly jewel had taken fight.
No person had seen it, and diligent in
quiry failed to connect anyone with its
sudden disappearance; but it finally
occurred to Mr.. Thurmond that per-
haps a pet chicken which had the en-
tree to the house was the thief, but
how to connect it with the robbery
other than by resorting to the AK blade
was beyond his reach. His decision
was soon made up that the chicken
should pay the penalty, and like many
others that have taken the same route
to the fowls paradise, off went the
head. After a careful post mortem, to
the astonishment of those present, on
splitting open the gizzard the gem was
found firmly encysted in that organ.

EATING MEAT RAW.
A Curious Habit Said to Be Increasing In
London.

N Sbtu 10 DC AuCESsasihh III
London.
The well-known favor with which
Englishmen regard undordone beef
brings to notice curious habit which
is said by the New York Advertiser
to be on the increase in London, that
of eating meat raw, or nearly so. The
habit started from belief that it was
conducive to health.
Of late years there has been q great
run on the gravy or juice expressed
from raw beef by the latter being
squeezed into pulp; but, quite apart
from this, many regular customers buy
the finest cuts with special view to
eating the latter raw, each customer
having an earnest belief that he bene-
fits in health from the practice. In
most cases it is more than matter Of
health than of actual taste. There are
two remarkable points about raw meat
eating, one of them being that great
many butchers themselves constantly
cut prime bits off and chew them.
The other point is that great many
people, who do not at home eat in raw
state the meat that they buy, judge the
quality when buying by chewing bit
of raw meat, just as they might taste of
butter or cheese. A celebrated London
barrister eats quantities Of the best
steak finely minced with salad, and in a
great many other cases the meat is cut
into very slim shreds and made
into sandwiches, with seasoning added.
Restaurant-keepers say that the chief
call is for meat very much underdone,
but there are great numbers of faddy
people who eat meat absolutely raw.

HE READ THE MESSAGE.
But the Drug Clerks Translation of IL
Telegram Was Not Correct.

But the Drug Clerks Translation of the
Telegram Was Not Correct.
They were standing on the corner of
Seventh and Vine streets not many
nights ago. One of them had received
telegram, says the Cincinnati Tribune,
and he was making a great effort to
read it. He tried it for several minutes,
and then handed it to his friend with
an air of disgust.
The second individual gave it up after
struggling with 1t a quarter of an hour.
Il never saw anything to beat that,
he remarked, as he handed the message
back, and I've seen some pretty bad
writing in my time, too"
swell, can't read it, and I'd like to
know what it says badly"
'Let me see. All, have it. Drug
clerks can read most any kind of writ
ing. Let US go and see."
They went to the nearest pharmacy
and handed the message to the pre-,
scription clerk. Before an explanation
could be made, he darted in the rear OF
the shop and disappeared behind a
screen.
After an absence of fifteen minutes
during which time both men had grown
very restless, the clerk appeared, and
as he handed the bottle to one Of the
men, he said:
"SiXty cents, please"
Rather stunned for awhile, the man
opened the package and read on the
label:
zone teaspoonful, to be taken three
times every hour"
When an explanation was made the
clerk set up the soda water.

IT is evident the goldbug press
favors short campaign-the short
er the better for them. They fear
education upon the silver question;
they fear the serious calm consid-
Grafton of the people and they fear
their dispassionate judgment.
They would rush the issue through
to the polls surrounded by ignor-
ance and let the tariff lose itself in
the grand shuttle. The next cam
paign will be struggle between
goldbugs and the people. Let the
battle be fought In the light of
facts and experience, and let the
81 lver question be settled purely
upon its merits. An extended dis
cussion of the whole matter will
consume time, and that means
campaign measured by the impor-
tance of the issues involved.

Now that Corbett has retired
from the prize ring and surrender
ed the belt to Peter Maher, Mar
tin Julian Fitzsimmon's back
er is wrathful and says Cor
bett should wait until he wins the
belt before he attempts to give it
away. Corbett won the belt when
he defeated Sullivan and at his
retirement has the privilege of
awarding the belt to whom he
chooses. Fitzsimmons never held
the heavy weight championship
and consequently cannot have any
claim to the belt. Maher challenges
Fitz and says he is prepared to de-
fend it from either him OF Joe
Goddard at any time, an early date
preferred. If Fitz wants the belt
Peter Maher stands ready for the
contest.

Painted Skulls In Austria.

A strange custom, dating back to the
dark ages, has survived in some OF the
mountain districts in Austria-the
painting of skulls. The small size OF
most cemeteries in those regions makes
it necessary to regularly remove the
skeletons of the buried who have lain
there eight or ten years, to make room
for newcomers. The relatives of the
dead thus to be exhumed are generally
notified before the removal, SO that
they can attend to the cleaning Of the
skeleton and be present at its deposit
in the so-called "bone-house" or "char-
nel-house." On such occasions the skull
is often ornamented with paintings,
representing rosaries, wreaths, snakes.

In the east end of Graham
county are located some of the
richest copper mines in the known
world. The Arizona and Detroit
Copper Companies employ hun
dreds of men the whole year round
and run day and night shifts, and
the ore taken out cannot be sur
passed in richness and the quantity
seems lnexhaustable, while there
are numerous other mines in that
locality which will prove equally
as rich and productive when prop.
erly developed. The mineral is
not alone confined to copper, but
consists of gold, silver and lead
in large quantities.

EIGHT men are now employed in
the Graham County Mining and
Smelling company's mines. Several
carloads of ore from these mines
will shortly be shipped to the
east. Active preparations are be-
ing made to erect a smelter on the
ella river in close proximity to
Stafford. The mining industry in
Graham county has been continued
actively for the past year and the
1eturns of the ore which will be
shipped east will be anxiously
awaited.

The Poor LoYe Art.

Those persons who profess to believe
that among the poorer and more ig-
norant classes art is not appreciated
should note the fact that when some
years ago Toynbee hall, London, held
an exhibition of paintings for the
dwellers in Whitechapel no less than
$4,000 visited in five weeks. The ex-
pertinent was tried in New York in
1890, and in forty-one days the exhibi-
ton was visited by over $4,000 persons.
The next year $4,000 came in six weeks,
and this year the attendance for thirty.
three days was 105,606.

The crater of Popocatepetl contains
thousands of tons of the purest sulphur
ever mined. The natives who gather
the sulphur secure small packages of
it, which they fasten to their backs.
Then they slide down the snow on the
