a GRAND OLD FRAUD.

linois calls Palmer a grand
old democrat"
There is no question about
the grandeur Of the gentle
mans gall; that is, if the term
can be applied in such a way
as to mean mastodonic, great
and superintendent.
Palmer has been turning all
kinds of backward and for
ward literary hand-springs in a
vain endeavor to explain his
free coinage of silver editorials.
The probabilities are that the
old gentleman has served a
term in a Kelley institute and
absorbed so much chloride Of
gold that a good deal of the
metal has stuck fast. 1t will
be in perfect keeping for his
old associates in the republi
can party to hail him as a
grand old republican," then
the pops and the greenbacE

THOUGHT THE
POPE WAS DEAD

Chicago Times-IIerald.
The bell Of the Roman
Catholic church of the Sacred
Heart which is the largest
Catholic church in Trenton, n.
J., had ben ringing loud and
vigorously during the day. 1t
was such an unusual proceed
ing that the Catholic of Tren-
ton became alarmed. The
reason given for the contin-
uous clamor was that the pope
was dead. Even /. on-Catho-
lies repeated the rumor, and it
became very generally believ-
ed.
The excitement was caused
by the testing Of the bell.
The rod which held the bel
snapped in two last Sunday
The next day it was found
that the bel! only hung in place
by the support of a bolt, anc
the slightest jar would cause
it to go to the ground. Faith
er McMenamin, who was form
erly a machinist, discovered
this, and at once prepared tc
avert such an accident.
He called in a foIndrymar
and gave directions for the
casting OF the parts needed II
the work. In order to raise
the bell from the position tc
which it had failed the mecllan
ical priest inserted a threaded
iron rod from the supper
overhead, and by the use o
nuts screwed on to the thread
gradually lifted the bell to it
proper position. 1t became
necessary while making test
to ring the bell frequently, anc
this had the effect of, alarming
the Catholics through tn
city.

GREAT SALES prove the grea

Hoods Sarsaparilla sells because it
s9complishes GREAT CURES.
OF WOMAN'S LOVE.

The one thing constant, the
one peak that rises above all
clouds, the one window in
which the light forever burns,
the one star that darkness car
not quench, is woman's love.
This one fact justifies the eXis-
tence and the perpetuation of
the human race. Again | say
that women are better than
men; their hearts are more un-
reservedly given; in the web of
their lives sorrow is inextrica-
bly, woven with the greatest
joys; sclfsacrihce is a part of
their nature, and at the behest
of love and maternity they
walk willingly and joyously
down to the very gates of death
Is there nothing in this to
create the admiration, the ador-
alton Of a modern reformer?

strictly select social club, pa

to hush the matter up and sup

general comment in political

the AZiola club have been very
much strained of late by what
the club members regard as an
objectionable indignity on the
part Of Mr.. Hawley in introduc

The membership Of the

elusive in its social make up,

to attempt to introduce a negro

Sir Richard Mortmain showed no sign
of his being tired Of Helston. He was,
to be sure, often guest beneath the
grander roof Of Thorsdale, but that was
at his sisters request; nor, since Violet
had ccased to be visitor there, had the
baronet been quite as compliant with the
countess wish that he should "make

visitors and her valetudinarian husband,

Contempt for Death.


A bulky locomotive was putting and
blowing and tearing up and down the
neutral ground on the river front, con.
veying cars to and from the big trans.
fer vessel.
On account of the steep grade on the
incline the engine is compelled to put
on full head of steam, and conse.
qucntly travels very rapidly for short
distance While this was going on
observed one of the switchmen with
lantern on his arm step Immediately in
front of the locomotive. The big ami
mated piece of mechanism came rolling
along, anu just as it seemed that the
man would be overwhelmed he nom
chalantly raised one leg, inclined his
body at an angle of As degrees, and the
next instant was on the fender and out
of danger.
The slightest slip would have meant
the switchman's death. for had he miss
ed his footing he would have gone un-
der the wheels. and yet have no doubt
but that he has been doing the act for
some years, and will continue to do it
until he is finally crushed to atoms.
Thousands of other railroad employees,
like him, literally carry their lives in
their hands, and really do not appreci-
ate their danger. Constant Intercourse
with their occupation has rendered
them hardened, and they step on and
off moving trains with as little fear of
the result as when an ordinary man
