COY. 0'FERRELL'S POSITION

Governor c. T. O'Ferrell of Vir- ginia, who is a candidate to succeed United States Senator John w. Dan- iels, defined his views the other day on the silver question, and in an in- terview voiced the sentiments of the great majority of bimetallists of this country. Gov. O'Ferrell said:
 "I am not welded to any partic- ular metal. am a silverite and a goldite. l want an abundant circu- lating medium of both metals, which are equally recognized in the Con- stitution as the lawful money of ex- change. Nor am I welded to any particular ratio between gold and silver, if they can only preserve a parity in the commerce and exchange of the world. But this parity ought to be preserved. The trouble, in my mind, is upon the question of this country undertaking alone to de- termine a fixed ratio of values with out the cooperation of the other leading commercial countries. With out this l do not think that it can be done. l believe that we cannot safely enter upon a free coinage of silver at fixed ratio without an international agreement. I am, in short, bimetallist, if there can be concurrent understanding and agreement among the leading nations of the world.
 T am for good dollar, whether gold, silver or paper. l want the silver dollar, which has been termed the poor mans dollar, to be deter mined as everywhere equal to the gold dollar, which has been termed the rich mans dollar. I want 8 dol lar, too, that can be laid away, if the holder sees proper, with the abso- lute certainly that it will be worth as much twenty years hence as now. I do not believe that this can be ac- complished by this country alone.

A LARGE number of negro colonists who recently went to Mexico are working their way back to the United States. From every quarter comes the story of starvation and suffering, and in many places they are being fed and cared for by the railroads and the United States con suls. At Torreon, Mexico, there are about 200, sick and suffering, await ing transportation to the United States. The negro will soon learn that he can do better in this country than any other.

The Two Little skeezncks.

There were two little slSeezuclzs who lived in the isle
 Of Boo in southern sea. They clambered and rolliclxed in heathenish style
 In the boughs of their cocoanut tree They didn' t fret much about clothing and such, And they rocked not whit of the ills
 That sometimes accrue
 From having to do With tailor and laundry bills. The two little skeezucBs once heard of fair Far off from their native isle. And they asked King Fan if they mightn't go there
 To take in the sights for awhile.
 Now, old King Fan
 Was a good natured man, As good natured monarohs go, And how be it he swore that all fairs Were a bore
 He hadn't the heart to say no. So the two little skeezucks sailed off to the fair
 In great big gum canoe. And fancy they had a good time there, For they tarried year or two. And old King Fan at last began To reckon they'd come to grief,
 When, glory! one day
 They sailed into the bay To the tune of atHail to the Chief. 7 The two little skeezucks fell down on the sand, Embracing his majesty's toes, Till his majesty graciously bade them stand And salute him nose to nose
 And then quoth he,
 tDivulge unto me What happenings have hapt to you, And how did they dare to indulge in fair So far from the island of Boo2' The two little skeezucks assured their king That what he surmised was true; That the fair would have been a different thing Had it only been held in Boo. tThe folk over there in no wise compare With the folk of the southern seas.
 Why, they comb out their heads,
 And they sleep in beds Instead of in caverns and treesl The two little skeezucks went on to say That children, so far as they knew, Had much harder time in that land far away Than here in the island of Boo.
 They have to wear clo'es,
 Which, as every one knows, Are irksome to primitive laddies, While with forks and with spoons they Ire de
 nied the sweet boons That accrue from free use of ones paddles. oAnd now that you're speaking of things to
 eat
 Interrupted the monarch of Boo, I've beg to inquire if you happened to meet With nice missionary or two2" "No, that did we not In that curious spot Where were gathered the fruits of the earth
 Of that special kind
 Which your nibs has in mind There appeared deplorable dearth Then loud laughed that monarch in heathenish mirth,
 And lond laughed his courtiers too. And they cried sThere is elsewhere no land upon earth So good as our island of Boo.'
 And the skeezucks, though glad
 Of the journey they d had. Climbed up in their cocoanut trees, Where they still may be seen, with no shirts to keep clean, Or trousers that bag at the knees. Eugene Field in Chicago Record.

JOURNALISM UP TO DATE.
Some Changes That Will Take Place In
 Newspaper Offices Very Soon.


 Within year or two there will be important changes in the mode and means of newspaper making.
 The reporter will send both descrip- tion and picture by telautograph, and the reporter of the future is going to draw as well as to write.
 The editor, whether in his office or temporarily residing at distant point, will telautograph his orders and ideas, and by an improvement now being per fected he will receive telautographio proofs in return.
 Writers on newspapers will become users of machine in process of con struction by which the present type writer keyboard will not only set their ideas into print, but will also instan- taneously put them into type, elimi- mating the machine typesetter as the machine itself has eliminated the hand eompositor and as the steam press eliminated the hand press.
 These are only few of the changes in the near future of journalism These and others bound to come will not in- jure any one, but will divert to other profitable fields labor now occupied in- termediately between the writer and the press, By cheapening the cost of producing a newspaper these changes will improve the business and make it more beneficial to mankind.

cident happened on the Carnegie branch

The accident happened to car No. 80

on its way to Pittsburg. just as tho car
started down the heavy grade the brake
broke and It was soon beyond the control
of the motorman, the speed became ter
rife and when q sharp curve near the foot

wonderful leap, landing trucks uppermost

was beyond control, no lay down on the
floor and advised the Others to follow his
example The killed were found wodged
under the roof of the car, which had been
smashed in upon them. The escape of any

quire cars to como to "a full stop at the top
