Talk with MIR. Campbell of Ohio.


Bozeman Chronicle: A. o. Camp
bell OF the mineral land commission.
and son of Ex-Governor Campbell OF
Ohio. arrived from that state on Mon
day morning.
Mr.. Campbell remarked introductor-
lily that the weather Is not nearly as
cold here as 1t is in Ohio. Tuesday
and Wednesday last were particularly
cold and chilly and the democrats
made rush for their fur overcoats
and ear tabs.
Mr.. Campbell saws that 1T might have
been worse in Ohio. The democrats
succeeded in cutting down the repub-
lican majority some $4,000 and on the
day previous to the election the
republicans wanted odds on 10000
majority. The populists. Mr.. Camp
bell says. did the business. He
believes that on straight fight
between the democrats and repub-
licans. Ohio is democratic Coxey. he
says, is regarded in some quarters as
martyr. and democrats being dissat-
isfied threw their votes with the popu-
lists. Democracy is by no means dead
In Ohio. Tt is still a very lively corpse.

people of the West give 1T credit for.

They give good values and expect TO

WHY ENDLAND IS GREAT.
| A Theory Which Attributes 1t Large
~ to Appetite md Digestion.

FROM the New York World.
One ingenious theory which accounts for
the absorption by Engl;shmen of all the
available territory of the earth is based on
physiological reasons 1t is asserted that,
owing to the exceptional construction of the
English stomach, the Englishman requires
a larger amount of food than any other
race does, that the Englishman would
starve on an ordinary ration, and that con-
sequently he has to steal the land of all
other races in order to get enough to eat.
This theory sounds incredible, bu. it is
borne out by evidence furnished by the
menu of the recent Guildhall banquet. This
was the lord mayors feast at which Lord
Salisbury made his ministerial speech. AS
a preparation for listening to him the
guests were expected to eat turtle soup,
oyster patties, mayonnaise of lobster, filet
of sole, ana roast turkeys, pheasants and
ploverS. This was intended merely to whet
their appetites for the real dinner, called
the entrees" which were merely the fol-
lowing:
"Barons of beef. galantines of capoas,
veal and ham pies, York hams a la gelee
roast chickens, pigeon pies, tongues a la
acarlate, calves sweetbreads mutton cut
let's a la Portuguese, aspic de foe graS la
ancienne, turkeys stuffed with chestnuts."
A few salads, jellies. pud6ings, cakes and
other entrements and ices filled up any re-
naming chinks; and then the diners were
prepared to hear what Lord Salisbury had
to say about the Armenian victims.
Vivisection is undoubtedly "a cruel p-ac-
tice, but still there are reasons for desiring
an opportunity of vivisecting a London
alderman just after a lord mayors banquet
at Guildhall. 1t would not only throw light
or interesting problems of physiology, but
1t would also serve lesson in ethnology
and in International politics. 1t would go
far to confirm the theory that the suprem-
acy of the British colonist like the suprem-
acy of the British sparrow, is largely a
matter of appetite and digestion, and con-
sequently in accordance with the laws Of
nature.

PHONETIC NEW TESTAMENT,
A Device to Help Foreigners Become
Familiar With The English Language.
Fr,m the Chicago Infer OCEAN

A Device to Help Foreigners Become
Familiar With The English Language.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The arbitrary and unphonetic spelling of
many English words is one of the most
serious difficulties encountered by foreign
ers in learning English. In order to do
away with that difficulty in a measure and
at the same time encourage the reading of
the Scriptures. Robert W. Mason has pre-
pared an edition of the New Testament
having the authorized text with the or
binary spelling in one column and the same
text spelled Theoretically in a parallel COL
umn. He has evolved a phonetic alphabet,
consisting of the ordinary English letters
and combinations OF them, to express
sounds unrepresented by single letters; and
he believes that people whose knowledge of
English is imperfect Will be assisted by this
phonetic text in their mastery of the Ian
guage.
His system is not designed to supplement
The present method of spelling, but is in
tended rather to be convenient bridge to
help foreigners in learning the language.
The scheme has the approval of a number
of educators and Christian workers. The
Bible Society is in sympathy with it, and
Will probably publish it when the $1,000
needed to paw for the special type is raised.
1t is the intention OF Mr. Mason to place
one of the Testaments in the hands of every
foreigner arriving in this country, with the
placacd on the outside cover, in his own
language: Read English Quickly

SEVENTY-CENT GAS,
Philadelphia May Enjoy That In
estimablc Boon.

From the Philadelphia CITY and State"
The ordinance of the Delaware County
Gas Company, which asks for the privilege
of laying pipes and serving fuel gas in the
twenty-seventh ward, has come before the
highway committee of councils but has not
yet been acted upon. Its appearance, how
ever, has drawn forth the active opposition
of Director Thompson, who sees in this plan
an entering wedge for the extension of the
service throughout the city, in conflict with
the city works. There seems to be no reason
fer giving such privileges to any private
corporation. when the service can be equally
well rendered by the city's cwn gas works
Director Thompson informed the highway
committee the other day that he had a
plan soon to be submitted to councils which
would enable the city to sell good gas at 20
cents per LOCO feet and still yield the city a
profit All that is reeded is the necessary
appropriation from councils for the improve
ment of the city gas works. Inasmuch as
in many cities liberal discount is given to
those who use gas for fuel purposes, there
is no reason why such plan should not be
adopted here, except that councils prefer 10
sacrifice public interests in order that profit
able lighting contracts may be given to pri-
vate corporations.

A VICTIM OF REFORM.
The Old Clerk Was Used to Lack of
Ventilation and Dirt.

The Old Clerk Was Used to Lack of
Ventilation md Dirt.
From the San Francisco Post.
For twenty years old clerk in the ap-
praisers' building had worked in the same
little room. In all that time the single
window which was intended to light the
room had never been cleaned nor opened,
and was covered with cobwebs and dust.
For twenty years the old clerk had worked
by artificial light and the walls that We're
once white had turned black and grimy.
During all that twenty years the floor
was never swept and the door was never
opened except to let the cid clerk in or out.
For twenty years the old clerk worked
away at his desk smoking an old pipe al
most continuously, but he would never let
of the moldy and fetid air escape from the
room. For twenty years the old man work
ed In that room and was never sick day.
A short time ago Collector Wise ordered
the window cleaned, the place swept out
the walls Whitened, the old furniture re-
moved and new substituted, and gave the old
place a general oyerhauing. A ventilltor
was put in the window and the transom
was propped open, SO the room was well
aired and lighted.
The old clerk sneezed all day when he
went back and sat in the fresh air, and
the light hurt his eyes so that he had to
go over and buy a stronger pair of glasses.
On the third day he took to his bed, and it
was a week before he was out. Since then
he has not been well a day, and he Is beg
glng the collector to stop up the ventilator,
close the transom and put a shade over
the window.

From London Truth.
England has done many wrongs to Ire
land, but one of the worst of them has
only just come to light. 1t seems that we
have stolen frcm the Irish the ancient
name of O'Morchoe and substituted for it
a base English counterfeit in the shape of
Murphy" At last one of the family, the
Rev. Thomas Arthur MacMurrough Muir
ply, rector Of Kilternan. has determined
to h i've back the ancient family property.
He now advertises through the press he
has for and on behalf of himself, his chill
dren and descendants renowned, relin-
quished and abardoned my said newer or
Angicized but hitherto always by me
used. name of Murphy and that instead
thereof he reviVes his ancient and true
name Of O'Morchoe. Long may he live to
rejoice in the recovery of his lost property!
Probably when once they realize that they
are only Anglicized O'Morchoes we shall
have the whole Of the great Murphy fam
lily throughout the united kingdom, to say
nothing of the colonies and the United
States. following the lead of the Rev.

A FOOL AND HIS MONEY.

He Tore in Strips Bills of Various
Denominations and Kept the Pieces.
From the indianapolis Journal.
A well-dressed old gentleman of portly
bearing emerged from the Denison Hotel
Yesterday afternoon carrying a roll Of paper
money in his hand. He was slightly under
the influence Of liquor, and attracted con-
siderable attention by his actions. When he
reached the sidewalk he stopped for mo-
ment and contemplated the bills in his right
hand. With his left hand he slowly and de-
liberately tore the bills from end to end.
They were of denominations running from
s. to SO. There was apparently $3.50 or $500
in the lot. Folding the strips together. he
tore them crosswise. By this time quite
crowd had gathered about him and stood
watching him with considerable surprise,
and more than one eye glistened with silent
envy of man who could deliberately de-
Stroy so much wealth.
After tearing the bills across the second
time, he crunpled them up in his right
hand and raised his arm aloft, as though he
We're about to hurl them into the street. In
an instant the crowd separated, and every
man was ready to pounce upon the torn
fragments as as they should leave
his hand. He thrust his arm forward sud
denly. and there was wild scramble in the
crowd every man eager to capture the
torn bills. But they never left his hand.
Instead of throwing them away, he quietly
dropped the pieces in his overcoat pocket,
and, with loud laugh at the expense of
the discounted spectators. ambled up Penn
sylvania street. The spectators looked into
each others faces with silent chagrin, and
then. without uttering a word, skunk away.

HAWAIIAN CONSCIENCE.
Sacrifice of n PunahOu Man Durin
the Recent Cholera Scare.

Sacrifice of Punnhou Man During
the Recent Cholera Scare.
From the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser.
Among the incidents of the late cholera
visitation is one which reveals the energy
of conscience and its supreme power in the
disciplined soul. A conscientious citizen
living not far from PCnahou had been in the
habit for years Of consuming dried herring
for his Sunday morning. breakfast The
herring had been lawfully imported, or
struggled, into his hamlet of virtue and
revolutions, in order to tickle the appetites
of men who reside here for mercantile, mis-
sionary and multifarioUs purposes. and was
believed to be free from the cholera germs.
When the board of health forbid the use
of fresh fish, the sensitive conscience of this
awarding citizen put before him, in all it's
CHASTITY nakedness. the question whether or
rot the eating of the dried herring did not
come within the spirit, If not the letter. of
the law. Instead of seeking the advice of
lawyers he asked an affabie and learned
member of the board of health his opinion.
and was positively informed that the germs
OF the cholera could not be taken into the
system by simply smelling.
Thereupon he placed the dried and ancient
fish upon his table every Sunday morning
and smelt its pungent and delicious odor I'M
til the tabu was removed. On the happen
ing of that event he consumed it with evil
dences of the widest gluttony, and with the
deepest feelings of gratitude he sat down
and addressed a memorial to the executive
council asking that his name be placed on
the roll of the ever-fathful patriots and
that in distribution of the next periodical
series Of testimonials granted for eminent
services to the republic his name should not
be forgotten.
