Broken Rib Stops Wrestling Match.

Broken Rib stops a Wrestling Match. ' The Graeco-Roman wrestling match, best three in five, between Ernest Roeber, worlds champion, and Herman Bernau, for the worlds championship and gate receipts, at Galveston Tuesday night, came to sudden termination by Bernau getting a rib fractured in the second bout and being unable to go on. The contest was decided draw.
 Roeber, after a desperate struggle, won the first fall in 19 minutes. Bernau won the second fall in minutes, but in doing so came with such force in contact with Roeber's elbow as to break a rib. The men wrestled at 175 pounds.

Nary a Nibble Do They Get.

Says the Huntsville Argus:
 "The anybody-to-beat ohnston fisher men are still throwing out their lines with the hope of catching a, fish to put up against this mountain trout. But nary nibble do they get. Having spent three weeks in their vain effort without a bite they have about despaired that they will accomplish anything before the dogwood blossoms come again. Mean while the people will make the landing with their much-esteemed mountain trout"

We suggest this for the politicians to discuss next year"
 No Experiment
 Says the Baldwin Times:
 "Bimetallism is not only fundamental principle of democracy, but or our gov ernment. It has ever been an issue be- tween the two parties. and with the set clement of the tariff 1t has become the paramount issue. The. statement that it is an experiment is dsproven by the fact that for about eighty years it con- stituted the financial system of the coun- try. It's results were beneficial. and it's dscontinuance was uncalled for and un- wise, and true democracy now calls for It's readoption and the restoration Of silver to its former place in our cur rency."
 This Solves the Question.
 The following from the ever watchful eye of the Russell County Register solves in a few words who should and who should not take part in our party primaries:
 Amy man who says that he will not support the democratic nominee, no mat ter who the nominee may be. nor for what office it may be, should not be all lowed to participate in the democratic primaries or beat meetings. The Regis ter does not question such mans de- mocracy as to principles of government, but his practice won't do. Now is the time when the party needs practical democrats-democrats who will vote for the success of the party"

The following taken from the Hen
nessey Clipper has some good ideas
on putting in an irrigation plant:
If were going to irrigate ten acres
Of level land, | would make my reser-
voir in the center extending from one
side to the other, excavating about
twenty feet wide, arising the embank-
ment four feet above the level. After
the excavation was completed / would
thoroughly pulverize the inside sur
face of the reservoir, then let in ;yater
sufficient to make stiff mortor, with
which l would puddle the bottom and
sides Of the part eXcavated. The en-
bankment will not need pudding as
it will be sufficiently solidified by the
process of placing it. l would then
situate 12-foot vaneless folding mill
at each end of the reservoir, with
4-inch cylinder and Pinch discharge
pipe, and would connect float to the
throw-out wire Of the mill, SO that
when the reservoir is full the mill will
60 out of the wind, and when the
water recedes it will commence opera
tions again. At intervals of two hun
dred feet / would locate at either side
of the reservoir, box outlets, not less
than four inches inside dimensions,
which should be six inches above the
level Of the land to be irrigated, and
connected with the elevated bitches.
The elevated bitches must be at right
angles with the reservoir and the crop
planted at right angle with the ditch.
The water should be permitted to run
to the end of the elevated ditch, then
open it between the rows to be irri-
gated; the flow from 4-inch stream
of water will carry force enough to
extend to the end of the rows. When
sufficiently watered dam up the ele-
voted ditch and open up the next two
rows, and so continue until that divi-
sion of the land is properly served, and
you will then know how to treat the
balance.

in all the prominent cities and towns
in this state. When collections are
received from eastern establishments
they will be assigned to the proper
local agent who will make the collec-
tion and report at once to the head
quarters.
Col. 7. G.. Orr needs no introduction
to our readers. He has had an extern
sive experience in collections during
the past six years and recently held
the responsible position of general
collection agent for the w. A. Wood
Harvester Machine Co., to which firm
he refers those who wish to employ
the services of collection bureau.
Mr.. Orr is strictly reliable and already
has over $4,000 worth of collections
in his hands. He will make speciality

Patents
Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time in the history OF
our country when the demand for Inventions
and improvements in the arts and sciences
generally was so great as now. The con-
veniences Of mankind IN the factory and
work shop, the household, on the farm, and
in Official life, require continual accessions
to the appurtenances and implements to each
in order TO save labor, time ard expense
The political change in the administration
of government does not affect the progress
OF the American inventor, who being ON the
alert, and ready to perceive the existing
deficiencies, does not permit the affairs Of
government to deter him from quickly con-
eeiylng the remedy to overcome existing
discrepancies. Too great care cannot be
exercised in choosing competent and skill

application for patent Valuable interests

tent counsel, and especially IS this advice

No Blanks in this Competition.

This is a competition of rather an unusual
nature 1t IS common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the competitors risklng the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling
his for the amount of the prize. But the
Press Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different Each person is asked
merely to help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewarded for doing it. The prize is only Il
stimulus to do something that would be well
worth doing It, The architect whose com.
peti:ive plan for club house on certain
corner is not accepted has spent his labor on
.)methng of very little use to him But the
.erson who patents simple and useful de
yce in the Press Claims Companps Compc-
tlton, need not worry if he fail to secure the
prize. He has substantial result to show
for his work-one that will command its val
de in the market at any time
The plain man who uses any article in his
daily work ought to know better how to I'M.
prove it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the Theoretical point of
view. Getrid ofthe rid of the idea that an
Improvement can be too simple to be worth
patenting TIE simber the better. The
person who best succeeds in combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the Press
