Senator Money uf Mississippi, one of the

rived yesterday TO attend the meeting Of
the Bimetallic League.

nominee for President" he said, $50 far us

man who has record which is cleanly and
unequivocally in favor of free silver,
Bland or Buies would suit Us very we'll.
Il am not in favor of Teller, because it
seems to me that it would be queer
thing for the Democratic party to ask
the suffriges Of the people and admit tacit-
ly, by the nomination OF Republican, that
we consider ourselves incompetent to
manage the nation. Our delegates are un-
instructed, and will support any free silver
man who may be nominated"

Miss Eliza Pope, 80 I Street S. E.:
''The affliction OF deafness was most un-
fortunate for me, for at tie time it came on
I bad learned typewriting. and my deaf
ness prevented me from securing q good
position.
THE right ear had been entirely useless
for eight years. My left ear also became
affected and the deafness gradually in
creased until 1 could not understand ordi-
nary conversation.
Doctors told me the drum of my ear was
ruptured. was distressed all the time With
Noises in My Head
that sounded like esca ping steam. ringing of
bells and the rumbling and rolling of thun-
der.
When went to DR.. Mccoy felt the
deafness had lasted SO long that II would
probably be impossible to cure it, al other
doctors had told me SO. Doctor McC oy said
my case was curabIe.
II Can Now Hear

longer have TO request people to repeat
what they say i can readily unde rstand
all conversation, and it is 10 longer neces-
sary for people to shout at me. Last Fri

for the first time in years. Now can hear

FAIR PLAY.
Ho Didn't Like Beans, but He Alto Thorn
All tho Same.

All tho Same.
Mark Twain lived some 40 years ago in
tho limits of worry wild, half crazy from
tior mining camp. This was divided into
two parties, tho so called Boston crowd, I"
which contained tho better clements,
though few Boston mon, and the "Mis-
souri, crowd" which was q pretty bad lot,
though not composed exclusively Of na-
tives of Missouri. Fights to tho death
were Of daily and nightly occurrence,
gambling outfits were In constant demand,
quarreling, bullying drunkards were ON
nipresent, and fow used water except to
wash now and then in tho little mountain
stream flowing through the diggings
Despite 1t all there was strlot camp eti-
quette, which was recognized and consid-
cred law by oil, and 1t was Of this etiquette
that Mark Twain told mo an example.
A Boston man" was eating breakfast
early ono morning at tablo near the open
door and tho half bar, half restaurant of
tho place. Ho WAS just finishing his plato
of pork and beans when two missouri
mon passed along and saw the "Boston"
man and his breakfast. Thoy stopped
within foot or two. "Look at that )" said
tho bigger of the Missouri" men CON
temptuously "Do you SEQ what that blank
blankcty blank Boston thing is eatingp
Why, down in Missouri whore oamo from
we food thom things to our horses. Only
the brutos cat that grub down thcro.''
Presently the bully stepped inside and
sat down opposite tho Boston" man Mt
tho Same table. When the plate of beans
had been eaten, tho Boston man called
out to tho bartender: "Pcto give mo an
othor platcful. Pile it up. 1 like 'em ="
When tho hoapcd up plate camo, tho "I3os-
ton" man, quick rs q flash, had pulled out
his revolver, had tho Missouri man COW
cred with it, and then pushing tho full
plateful of beans across tho table told tho
Missouri man to ''oat it and like it,, or
he'd shoot him like tho dog That no was.
Tho bully had his choice between beans
or death, and he knew it. When he had
eaten every bean, he was made to say that
no liked beans, and then and not till then
did the Boston man put up his pistol
pay for both orders of beans and leave tho
saloon.
Now" said Mark, "the reason the
Missouri man didn't whip out his gun
and shoot rs soon rs tho bean eaters back
was turned was because of camp etiquette.
Each man had his fun with the other, and
they were oven. If the Boston man had
been shot, the Missouri man, MS quick rs
news could fly, would have had his body
filled with lead from the revolver of every
man in camp regardless of party. You
see, wo were quite sticklers for fair play in
those days. Now York Journal.

Climbing Elephants.

Elephants are able to mako their way
up and down mountains and through a
country Of steep cliffs, where mules would
not dare to venture and oven where mon
find passage difficult. Their tracks have
been found upon the very summit of
mountains over Z, 900 feet high. In these
journeys All elephant is often compelled to
descend hills and mountain sides which
arc almost precipitous This is tho way
In which it is done: Tho elephants first
maneuyor is to knecl down close to the de-
clivity. One fore leg is then cautiously
passed over tho edge and n short way down
the slope, and if he finds there is no good
spot for u firm foothold he speedily forms
ono by stamping into the soil if it is moist
or kicking out a footing ii 1t is dry. When
he is sure of u good foothold, tho other
fore leg is brought down in tho saine way
Then he performs tho same work over
again with his foot, bringing both fore legs
little in advance of tho first foothold
This leaves good places all ready made for
tho hind feet. Now, bracing himself up by
his huge, strong fore legs, no draws his
hind legs, first ono and then tho other,
carefully over the edge, where they occupy
the first places made by the fore fcot. This
is the way tho huge animal proceeds all
tho way down, zigzag, kneeling every time
with tho two hind legs while no makes
footholds with his fore feet. Thus tho con-
ter Of gravity is preserved and the huge
beast prevented from topping over on his
nose.-Public Opinion.

A Teashop In China,

The tea shop Is an important institution
IN China. 1t serves rs n news depot, where
tho people gather to hear tho news of tho

got into quarrel on tho street, oLo is apt
to drag tho other to tea shop and drink
