Since Sir Walter Raleigh introduced

havoc with the finances Of her devotees,

plan scheme whereby investing money
in cigars becomes like putting it III a

daily invest so cents i'll cigars. This
means $3.50 per day, and it is argued
that if this number of smokers can be
induced to work on united plan of &C.

would be something like $40, 600. This
sum we'll invested would yield rev.

profits, would soon prove highly profit

producing azure haze OF good cigar,
the sanguine believers i'll the plan can
see not many years off a magnificent
skyscraper of all office building owned
by the members OF the smokers In

There is one strong point in favor 1T
the scheme, and that is the fact that
those W no 20 into it are not taking any
chances to lose, and they may win. If

END OF THE WORLD.

An Asbury Park Pastor Thinks 1t Will
Come Right After the Chinese War.
The Rev. Howard T. Widdemer, the
pastor of the First Presbyterian church
of Asbury Park, N. j., has expressed a
belief that the world will come to an
end in about ten years. Mr.. Widdemer
was teaching class of boys in the Sun
day school, and one of the boys made a
remark about getting married
'You should not begin so early to
think of marriage, "'said Mr.. Widde-
mer. "When you are 80 years of age,
you will be just about old enough
''But may be dead by that time, :"
said the boy.
eyes, think you will be 'ead,"
was Mr.. Widdemer's unexpected reply.
When asked to explain, the minister
said he thought all persons would be
dead before the boy reaches the age of
IS.
He bases his belief upon the Scrip
lures and particularly on that passage
which seems to prophesy the end of the
world when the gospel shall have been
preached unto all the nations. He says
that already missionaries have carried
the gospel into every nation save one
small country, which, in his opinion,
the present China japanese war will
open up.
'When that country shall be con-
quered for Christ" said Mr.. Widde-
mer, "the world will come to an end. !"

Is it Mr.. Rider Haggard s "She" who

South Africa sends to that paper an in
teresting account Of the capture of the
"Queen Majajie, or Great She, who
seems to have hatka wonderful history.
"A peculiar fact is that her own
tribe have never seen her. Only her in
dumas were allowed to see her. They
number 90. The commander in chief is
Jonas, an aged man. The rest are vir-
tually young men. Only three women
were ever allowed to see her. One is a
bearded female, with beard fully two
inches long from her chin. Around the
sacred kraal are wooden images, repre-.
senting every nation of Kafir, and all
sorts of animals beautifully carved out
of wood"
"She's" residence was an ordinary
round hut. we'll built, and when she
ate meat she had to be carried by her
indunas to another kraal, and even then
her nation was not allowed to see her.
'She had her great medicine tree in
a forest, and all sorts of signs and SYM
bols existed there sacred to the Kaffir
mind, and in kraal near the tree were
40 fine fat slaughter oxen inclosed.
The general had her carried by her
trusty indunas to the head lager and
allowed the Knobnosen friendly natives
to see this wonderful woman they had
so often heard of. Her own tribe also
gazed on her in some wonder"
The queen is of great age. fully ITO,
it is supposed, although her tribesmen
say 800.
''She is of light copper color, with a
frizzy sort of wool on her head and wears
a sort of hood of tiger skin. Only her
neck and face are bare. All her body is
covered with royal tiger skins. The
general would not allow the burghers
to interfere with the wooden images,
charms, etc. A missionary, the Rev.
Mr.. Ruiter, who has lived 3 years near
Majajie's and only seen her when cap
tured, asked her why she had not al

replied, That is my business. -

INDICTED FOR MANsLAuGHTER.

Game Wardens Who Killed Joe White
Are Held For Trial.
SHELL LAKE, Wis, Dec. 80 AT the
preliminary examination of Deputy
State Game Warden Horace Martin
and his assistant, s. M. Hicks, the de-
PENDANTS, who have been under exam
ination for the murder of Joe White,
the Indian chief, made a motion
through their attorneys that they be
held for manslaughter and that the
charge of murder be dismissed. After
considerable argument the court
granted the motion and bound
the defendants over to the Cir
cult court on that charge, placing the
bail at $4,000 in the two cases. The
state introduced evidence showing that
the shooting was not in self defense,
and the prosecuting attorney states
positively that the plea of justifiable
shooting cannot be introduced in court
after the evidence he has submitted.
This has been the line of defense the
prisoners have intended to introduce
all along.

possibilities. General Clarkson thinks
that if the convention was held this

choice, but two years are to intervene,
and, in the meantime, Mr.. Clarkson
thinks Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, will
come forward as a powerful candidate.
He thinks Mr.. Reed the strongest

would make great president. He
also spoke of General Harrison, Senator

He Thought It Was Opposition, but It
Was Only Literary.
In Laramie, wy, lived stationer
and feed store keeper who were deadly
enemies. Their places of business were
directly opposite each other on the main
street. A mutual friend of the enemies
was coming down town one morning
when he was hailed by the feed man,
who was ON the sidewalk in front of his
own store. The flushed face and glar-
ing eyes of the latter indicated that he
was mad-redhot-all through.
'Come here, Jake. want to show
you something's" yelled the feed man as
the mutual friend drew nigh.
Pointing across the way to the sta
toners place, he exclaimed: "Look over
there! Now, what do you think of that?
Didn't always tell you that fellow was
the meanest skunk that ever cucumber
ed the earth?''
The mutual friend looked, but failed
to see the object of the feed man.

Don't you see it?'' queried the feed
dealer. Don't you see that sign out in
front? See what that measly whelp's
gone and doneP'
This time the mutual friend saw a
large placard in front of the stationer's
window like this: ''Baled hay for sale
here. !"
"Runnin oppersition to my businessv
snorted the feed man. 'Feller told me
he heard him swear he'd bust me up
afore he got through with me. Amt

Il hardly think he's gone into the

quietly. "Come over with me, and
We'll find out.
After some persuasion the feed man
accompanied him to the stationery store.
''Do you keep baled hay here?" in
quired the mutual friend.
Eyes, SIR" answered the clerk.
The feed man looked as if he would
explode.
Gimme a bale,'' said the mutual
friend.
"A bale?" inquired the surprised
clerk. "Say. Jake, that's a horse on
you. The only 'Baled Hay we have

BOND ISSUES CEASE.
CARLISLE SAYS THERE MUST BE
FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.

No More Bonds win Be Issued, Even to
Avert Panic-Little Likelihood That
Congress win Yield to His Expressed
Wishes.
ST.. PAUL, Dec. 28-The Washington
correspondent of The Dispatch tele.
graphs his paper as follows regarding
financial legislation:
Immediately after congress convenes
next month there is to be decided. if
not desperate move all along the adj
ministration lines to pass the Carlisle
substitute currency bill. During the
holiday interim steering committees
from both house and senate have been
named, but whether all of those who
have been chosen will consent to act
remains to be learned after the return
of members from the holiday festivi-
ties at home.
Something Must Be Done.
Secretary Carlisle is determined that
there must be some financial leg .sla-
ton looking to the retirement of the
large volume of treasury notes, that
are now being used to whittle down
the gold reserve at the behest and die
tatiOn OF the money trust. Carlisle is
reported to have said at the last meet
ing of the cabinet, that he would not
issue another lot of bonds even to avert
a panic. While the exact words of the
secretary are not here given he is
known to have said something like
this:
Will Not Issue More Bonds.
Unless congress enacts some legisla-
ton to relieve the treasury depart
ment, shall let the country take the
consequences. Another issue of bonds
during this administration is what the
Republicans have predicted, and just
what they want. We have control of
congress until the 4th of March. And
we are directly responsible to the peo-
pie. l have urged, argued and pleaded
with congress to authorize a popular
loan with low interest bearing bonds
Of small denominations Can the DEM
ocratic party jeopardize its future for
many years ny allowing this session to
adjourn without having enacted leg
islation that will at least restore the
business Of the country to feeling OF
confidence in the ability Of the govern
ment to establish safe currency sys-
tenn and meet its obligations
But Notwithstanding these plain
words from the secretary of the treas
TRY, there is every reason to believe
that the session will close without any
financial legislation being enacted.
There is strong opposition to the Car
Isle plan in both houses. The party
lash will be efficacious enough to get
the bill through the house, but it will
land among shoals and breakers in the
senate sea.
With only two months left for the
garrulous Stewart, Allen, PETER and
Kyle, there is no hope for anything
this side Of the grave of the Fifty third
congress- The Populist takers who
want to see 81 200, 600. 600 issued at once
by the general government, will find it
an easy work talking the Carlisle bill
to it's death, as swearing off at New
Year. The prospects are that no finan-
cial legislation will run the senate
gauntlet this season.
