The Unkindest Cut of All.

The great wheel at the Indian exhibi- tion stuck on Wednesday night little after g o'clock The unfortunate per sons who intrusted themselves to it had to remain suspended between heaven and earth for hours We do not pity them overmuch Those who can find pleasure in slowly revolving in air would look upon kaleidoscope as a form of art. The soullessness of these American amusements is appalling The switchback railway and the great wheel testify to depth of vulgar stu pidity that would have astonished the builders of the tower of Babel Lon don Saturday Review.

AND so THEY MARRIED.
Romance of a Wealthy Widow and He,
 Hired Man.


 Hired Man.
 When Miss Yount, 25 years ago. fell heir to 1000 acre ranch, the most fer. tile i'll Napa valley, California. she married Lewis Rutherford and had two sons by him. Several years later they disagreed and were divorced, but later on remarked and lived together until Rutherford's death, which occurred in 1887.
 The care of the ranch then devolyed on William Dalzell, an unlettered man of all work, but who was possessed of some brains. The widow placed implicit confidence in him. They were often te- gether and their actions caused her sons to make frequent protests and demand Dalzell's dismissal The mother and sons became gradually estranged, and Dalzell began to assume the airs of master of the place.
 Some days ago one of the boys went home intoxicated and quarreled with Dalzell. He is known US the best shot i'll the county, and when he threatened to kill the hired man if he did not leave Che place the latter started for the house and told Mrs. Rutherford, who immedi- ately started for the station and took the train for Napa, while Dalzell won't to neighbor's, and, procuring q horse and buggy, started in the same direction, closely followed by the woman's angry son.
 Dalzell and the widow met at Napa, and, procuring license, sought a min- ister and were married. To neighbor Dalzell said after their return to the ranch, that he and Mrs. Rutherford had signed a marriage contract two years ago and had secretly lived as husband and wife since then. lie is 49 years old, broad shonldered and fairly good look ing. His wife is 43 years old, still very beautiful and cultured Her fortune is estimated at $500, 900. = New York World.

ALL DEBTORS NOT DISHONEST.
Free Silver Means That Creditors Are te
 Lose 90 Per Cent.

Lose Ou Ter Cent.
 Is the proposition for free silver ait 16 to !" expedient and honest?
 Stripped of verbiage, the proposition Is for this government to embark ill the immediate and unlimited coinage of sil- yer dollars, each dollar to contain ap- proximately 60 cents worth of silver bullion; to discard all provisions for guaranteeing the concurrent circulation and parity of gold and silver, and to compel by law the acceptance of the new dollars in payment of all debts.
 The object is to reduce the value Of the dollar about one-half, and by fore ing creditors to take this dollar for debts to scale all existing obligations. The only exception will be where the shrewd creditor has stipulated for payment in gold. Such creditor will be paid in full, but the unsnspecting man or woman who has merely trusted to the honor of the nation is to be done up, just in proportion as the dollar is scaled.
 The Populists are solid for this scheme. It's i'll their line of business. They are opposed to a dollar having any intrinsic value, but if they must have dollar worth anything at all the less it is worth the better it suits them. Very few Republicans take any stock in the scheme, and the more it is studied the sooner it will be dropped by all think ing men.
 The agitators assume, because Kansas people are in debt, that every Kansas man ought to join in the elalnor for such dollars. deny that it is the duty of any man, because he lives ill Kansas and is in debt, to favor 8 scheme which his conscience tells him Is wrong
 am as much in debt as the average Kansan, but l cannot see why this fact should blind the conscience or destroy the ability of | man to reason on such questions believe ill bimetallism and in the use of the largest volume of sil- yer as standard money which can be maintained at parity with our gold and paper money, so that all of our dol lars will be equal for all purposes But the Harvey programme is merely a scheme to scale our standard do1lar-in WulS1l tttl =GOHtIftCls IiN6 EGGA uidU6-- for the purpose of robbing creditors.
 If these agitators simply wanted to cheapen the dollars for use i'll future business transactions, they would advo- cate a law making the new dollars legal tender for future debts only But that's not what they want. They insist that these new cheap dollars must be made legal tender for all debts.
 am opposed to that because it is dis honest. If anybody can prove that it is honest, I will be glad to be for it. But he must prove it by some better argu- ment than the threadbare assertion that John Sherman eonspired with the Rothsehilds to rob innocent people 20 years ago, for even if that idiotic state ment were true it would be no reason why you and I should eonspire to rob much larger number of equally innocent people today.-George L. Douglass in Kansas City Star,

The people of the kingdom of Greece suffer from many ills and disadvantages which do not beset nationalities less dis. tinguished than the descendants of the ancient Hellenes.
