Recently Gov. Hughes pardoned sew
eral convicts from the pcnitentiary at
Yuma. Their liberation was condi-
tional, they were not to violate any
laws nor drink nor gamble. They
were given a new suit of clothing and
a few dollars to start anew. They
celebrated Independence day in Yuma
by getting uproariously drunk, and as
a result were taken up again and
once more placed in stripes and
thrown into prison to serve their orig
inal sentences.

There is a politician in Venezuela
who can give the average American
politician points in the game. His
name is Guzman Blanco. When pres
ident of that country he contrived to
get himself elected senator from so
many states that he cast half the vote
of the senate without counting his
veto power. He was also governor Of
several states at the same time.

WITH THE RAIL ROADS,

Rumors concerning the Southern are rife, and. world of speculation is in progress. Some of the railroad men here still contend that the offices of the Southern and Alabama Great Southern will be consolidated, while others hold that such will not be done, but the latest rumor afloat is that IIaiden Miller will step into Mr. Fitzgerald's shoes. It has been given out that MT. Fitzgerald is go- ing with the Memphis and Charleston as general freight agent of that line. Mr. Haiden Miller, according to the rumor will go to Knoxville, and his place as division freight agent will be filled by Maj w. A. Moody, who is at present so- liciting freight agent of the Southern, with headquarters in this city.
 The rumor about the consolidation says that the superntendents office of the Alabama Great Southern will, upon consolidation, be moved to Chattanooga
 Excursion to Mexico.
 The Southern Pacific is taking advan- tage of the opportunity of sending many hundreds of people to the City of Mexico from Houston immediately after the re- union. An excursion will be run to the City of Mexico from Houston with a thirty-day limit ticket for $2790 for the round trip. This would make taking the tariff rate, the round trip from Brming- $4240.
 Going Back Home.
 MT. D. S. Washburn, traffic manager of the Kansas City, Memphis and Bir- :mingham, passed through the city last night en route home. He has been east with the directors of the road.
 Personal.
 MT. Robert W. Smith, traveling pas senger agent of the Southern, with head quarters in Selma, passed through the city yesterday morning en route to An niston.

The Illinois Democracy.

The address delivered by Senator Pal mer before the Wabaunsee club in Chi cago was as fearless and as outspoken as might have been expected from man who has had no sympathy with the war against honest money and who does not believe in resort to a crazy financial policy in the expectation that 1t will humbug the people and build up the waning fortunes of party in any com monwealth. From the moment that the silver convention was proposed as the tissue" by which the democrts of Illl- nois ewould allure votes, MT. Palmer has been vehement in his opposition. The senator is not seeking for new issues to attract public attention; he stands on the platform of his party as 1t appealed to the nation ins 1892 and carried the country. He characterizes the call for the June convention as a demagogic measure which will ''pervert the organ ization of the party" which implies the sacrifice of public and private faith, i" and which under no circumstances can carry Illinois for the democracy, as is the plot of the manipulators.-Kans City Star

The Workman's s Wages.

The wages of a workingman are really high or low. not in proportion to the number of dollars he receives but ac- cording to the amount of the necessa- ries of life that his earnings will pur- chase. This is a proposition that any man of ordinary intelligence can reason out forihimself, and it won't take long to do It. Now any mechanic, let us say, of thirty years experience knows that dur ing the period of imitation which the sil- veriees propose to have repeated every thing was higher than labor in compar- fson with ante bellum prices. In other words, he could not then buy with the proceeds of his work as much of the necessaries of life as he had bought be- fore. If his wages were 30 per cent higher he had to pay 50 or, 60 per cent more for rent, groceries and clothing
 Aside from personal experience, it~is well known fact that labor is always the last thing to rise in price in a perio I of imitation, and it never does rise as high in proportion as the things the laborer must buy.-Memphis Scimiter

Appeal for Help.

In a garret of the house No. 211 South Twentieth street lies William O. Stretz, desperately ill., absolutely helpless and almost frantic with the terrible pain which racks his body.
 Without a cent of money, without all medical aid. and even without the med icine so necessary for the alleyiation of his pains, his condition is a desperate one. A wife and five hungry children help to augment this misery.
 Fellow citizens, do not permit him to die helpless and forsaken! Help him as well as you can, and remember that in- mediate assistance is urgently needed Have pity on the unfortunate family and give or send what you can spare to relieve their distress.

THE DUKE AND THE TOAD.

a new ana Interesting Story of the Fa-
NOUS Wellington.
Napoleon was worshiped and feared.
but men loved and adcred the iron
duke. OF the former, how few are the
kindly human traits recorded. while of
the other, to this day fresh proofs keep
coming to light of simple sweetness
dwelling long in the minds of men.
The following anecdote concerning a
letter lately exhumed may serve as one
instance out of a thousand illustrating
the sympathetic nature of the great
commander. The letter, says recent
writer, was in some such terms as
these:
Field marshal the duke of Yelling
ton begs to inform William Harris that
his toad is alive and we'll"
1t seems that the duke, in the course
of country stroll, had come upon a
little boy weeping bitterly over toad.
A strange trio they must have been
the lean, keen-eyed old soldier, the
flushed, sobbing boy, and between
them the wrinkled reptile squatting.
with fearful eyes and throbbing sides.
The boy wept because ne was going to
school next day; he had come daily to
feed his toad; the little heart was
racked with grief because he feared his
darling would be neglected when he
was gone and might starve. The dukes
heart was as soft as the boys, for he
undertook to see that the toad was
looked after. and the letter above
quoted is one Of the subsequent bnlle-
tins.
