Col. HookeR's AWFUL DREAM.

Here is story on Col. George w.
Hooker, which, to my positive know
ledge, has never before appeared ia
print. Col Hooker dreamed that he
died and that he wended his way to the
gates of heaven and Knocked for admis-
sion. st. Peter pulled the gates aiar and
asked who was there, wheIeupon the
applicant for admission responded;
"COl. George w. Hooker, late of Brat
tleboru, VI"
Are YOU the Col. Hooker who tired
to talk agricultare 70 farmers, and who
advised young men not to 60 into p@li-
tics until they could pay their way, If
necessary?'
"I suppose I'm the mao was the
somewhat reluctant reply.
"Well, thea you cannot come in" said
st. Peter.
'Rut he had an unusually good wife,
suggested some one on the inside.
THAT makes a difference, replied st.
Peter. "Iou can come ia, then, Col.
Hooker. but you ran a tremendous rsk
in putting all of your religion in g0ur
wife's name. = Free Press

The latest quotations show that 1t
costs $50 to get ton of wool from an
Australian port to London and that the
freight from London to New York or
Boston is $3.50 to 81 a ton, making the
total expense of freighting wool from
Australia here less than two cents a
pound. 1t is no wonder that wool is
cheap under these circumstances. But
if our wool-growers have cause TO com
plain, merchants and manufacturers can
sympathize with them. The average val
ue of wooden goods is 20 to 80 per cent
below what it was last June, and dealers
predict that the bottom has not yet been
reached. A fight is on between foreign aud
American manufacturers for possession of
the American market. Each cut of one
party to the war is met by the other, and
the public profits thereby. 1t is believed
that woolens will be cheaper during the
next few months, till this controversy is
ended, than they ever were. When one
or the other party wins prices are likely
to advance. Up to date American manu-
facturers appear to have held their own.

Ashline slept Ia the store, having a
room Gpstairs. Charles Cook, whose
home is near the store, remembers hear
ing an unusual noise between 8 and 10
O'Clock Saturday night. At any rate,
sometime during the night Ashline shot
himself with 32-caEbre revolver as above
stated. Two of the bullets struck the
forehead. but did not penetrate the skUll
one of them went in below the right ear,
and the other into the chest. A large
pool of olOod on the bed indicated that

ThE REAL TROUBLE.

The fact of most Importance with re-
gard to the existing financial troubles of
the government is that they are prma-
rally and principally attributable to Dem
ocratic incapacity in the management of
public affairs. 1t is easy to give techni-
cal reasons why this or that particular
thing comes to pass in the current opera.
tions of the treasury. but such explana-
tiors should not be allowed to obscure
the original cause of the misfortune or
to modify the responsibility of the party
in power. The simple truth is that Dem
ocratic rule is not conducive to the pros
perity of the country. 1t creates dis
trust, and embarrasses business, and de-
presses all kinds of industries This is
not a matter of conjecture or speculation,
but of practical experience.-TS st. Louis
