trash. IT'S mine, tits his, it's some
thing, tits nothing; but he who filches
from me my good name obs me OF
that which noe enriches him and makes
me poor, indeed"
The above is quoted from the i'm
mortal Shakespeare, and is respectfully
recommended for the consideration OF
the ..Brush Creek Farmer" and the
editor of the Higginsville Advance.
The lNTELLIGENCER heretofore has
found but little to complain of in the
policies used by the Advance to further
the cause Of the republican party. In
the main it has been honorable and has
handled public questions in a manner
that becomes an honorable high-minded
editor. But that paper for some reason
unknown to us has lately undertaken a
policy which reflects great discredii
upon its enierprising proprietor.
The Advance ought to and does
know that the county records are
public, and that any one has a right 10
examine them.
The Advance ought to know and
does know that the worst kind of 9
criminal Is the character assassin.
The Advance ought to know and
does know that charges of fraud made
against anyone must be based upor
facts or else it lays itself liable mo-
only to criminal prosecution, but also
to civil suit.
Now the INTELLIGENCER is not losing
any sleep over the charges made b!
that paper, nor is it worrying over thu
question of Mr.. Kleinschmidt's crimina
or civil liabilities. But knowing Mr.
Kleinschmidt to be j., nan who ha'
heretofore been reasonably fair, w
submit to him these questions.
Do you think that maligning th'
characters of honest officials will ado
to your republican voteP
Does your party in the county sane
ton your methods, and as chairman O
its committee are you acting for thai
partyP
Have you any evidence of FRAUD

There is now being built at the
Baldwin Locomotive Works in Phil
adelphia an ordinary locomotive with
driving wheels OF five feet diameter,
which the inventor says will, rs
soon rs completed, draw a train OF
cars from Philadelphia to New York
in one hour. The Balduins have
nothing to say. They are simply

tive is not to be set on the rails as en-
gines ordinarily are. 1t is to be plac-
ed on what are known as the Holman
fnc,ion geared trucks. which will
raise it thirty inches. The inventor

cep. that each Of its driving wheels
viii rest on and between two smaller
wheels, iii IN .,r.:
and between three other wheels that
finally resi- on the rails. The instant
the drivers of the locomotive begin to
turn they necessarily through friction
give an opposite rotary motion to the
small wheels on which they rest. The

one revolution OF the locomotives

LANDING ON AFoReloN SHORE.


Tho Traveller on Arriving wonders What
to DO First.
When our steamer lands US in a for
eign port-it matters little whether it
Is an English-spcaking port or not
the traveller who has not taken the trip
to Europe before wonders what to do
first, according to q writer in Harper's
Bazaar. Having donned our shore ar
mcnts, packed our steamer trunks aud
given It to the room steward, who
brings II to the custom house for US,
and having given our fees to this same
steward, our stewards, our table stew
ard and dcck-steward, we have moth
ing to do but wait with our hand bag
gage until the gangway is placed in po-
sition and we can 20 ashore.
With our fcllow-passengers we enter
n large room, where custom house offic-
crs abound on every side. They stand
behind long tables, upon which our
handbags and rolls are placed, and
which we should prepare at once to
unlock. a cheerful compliance with
the request to open all packages does
much To make Il passage through all
custom houses pleasant and easy, and n
person has no disagrccablc experiences
who obeys the requirement of the law
OF the country she is entering.
Travellers, as n rule. and American
travellers especially, are treated with
consideration. They will ask you,i in
French, German or Italian: "IIave
you anything dutiablc?" and us cigars
and brandy are what they seek. one
can truthfully answer in one word:
"Nothing'-a word easily learned in
all three languages. When our hand.
baggage has been examined, one of our
party usually stands guard Over il, in
some out-of-thc-way corner, while the
others, with trunk keys in hand, wal,
for the trunk to be brought from the
steamers hold. One claims them us
they appear, and they all must be
opened as n rule. AS the place for cx.
amining trunks is large, n distinctly
marked trunk is necessary.

trunk Is seen at n great distance, when
initials are not distinguishablc. Great
patience works wonders in a custom.
house, and when rough hands plunge
into every corner among our small
number of treasures, we arc supposed
to smilingly approve. The hat tray is
always attractive to these guardians of
the peace, and her q woman is allowed
to make known her feelings by Il gen
tie ""rencz gardc, sill vous plait!" or,
Bite, in acht nchmen!" or, again, the
soft Italian: "Badate, per piaccrc!"-
all OF which is simply: please, take
care" If n person preserves n calm in
difference, and does no. attempt to vio-
late their laws, there is nothing to
dread in these places of custom. But
no fee is ever offered n custom house
official.
After passing the customs, n porter
carries. our luggage TO n cab, or, if we
have too many trunks for n onc-horsc
carriage, we must take n larger one. A
onc-horsc cab can carry comfortably
two people with their hand baggage.
and two small trunks in front with the
driver. We direct the coachman to the
hotel previously decided upon, our de
cision having been reached by our red
bound Bacdeker.

One night rs he had dismounted.
leaving his horse in the charge OF his
orderly, and gong down into the an
giles of one OF those Virginia fences,
he overheard two soldiers talking,
which interested him considerably,
and, instead Of sleeping, he listened
to them. One soldier said to the
other: Il suppose it's all right that
we should march all night and fight
by day. or course, 1t is right that we
should do that, for the love OF country,
il nothing else. | suppose that we
should be poorly clothed MS we are for

dure it. suppose that to be poorly
