with the unmistakaole emphasis of man who is in earnest. It was while he was Governor of New York and during the cholera scare Of 1892. The details of the story it is unneces- sary 10 recount, but it is sufficient to say, that in speaking of certain class of law breakers, Mir Flower exclaimed; q don't care dam for the votes. I will put down those misereants. The incident made for him a national reputation and well illustrated his political principles.
 Roswell Pettibone Flower was born at Theresa, little village in Jefferson county, N, Y, in 1895. As a boy he elerked in a country store, worked in . brickyard and on a farm. He taught school for while and then opened a iewelry store in Watertewn, N. Y. His business thrift and enterprise soon made him a successful merchant and in 1869 he branehed out in New York city, in which larger field of action he ac- cumulated millions by shrewd oberss ations in stocks, bonds and railroad property.
 Not until he had become a rich man did he find time to enter poli- tics. In 1881 he was sent to Con gress and was reelected the next term. In 1882 he was favored as candidate for Governor, but the nomination went to Grover CleVe- land. In 1889 he was again returned to Congress by a big majority, Two years later he was elected Gov ernor of New York, his success be- ing due to the confidence he in spired in business men of all politi- cal faiths. He has been mentioned as acandidate for President before. MT. Flower is still actively engaged in business in New York, but spends much of his time in his comfortable home in Watertown.
 MT. Flower is one of the delegates to the National Democratic Con vention from New York.

A Pernicious Practice

A very hazardous and prrnicious practice among the delivery wagons of the town is the very rapid rate at which they travel through the alleys. Pedestrians are unable to know of the approach of a vehicle from such d place and serious injury and loss of life are rendered probable by careless ness in this matter Wouldn't if be a good idea for the city council to take some steps to regulate the speed while passing through an alley. In fact in such places any speed greater than walk is very hazardous. Several cases of very narrow escapes have already been reported.

Yesterday afternoon about 3 o'clock Mir. John k. Omara, Of Chi eago, representing the "Gordon" wheel, "astonished the natives" ill front of the Hotel Truloek by some of his antics while astride the legit- innate successor of the horse. A great many of the feats performed were extemely difficult and required the skill of a professional of the highest order The best thing about it all was that what Mir. Omara did, he did gracefully and without appar- ent effort.
 Coasting on bicycles promises to grow in popularity everywhere as q means of diversion. Club contests are now all the rage in the Empire State, prizes being offered as in q race. The fat man has a chance with his lean friend in this sort of a contest which accounts in partfor it's measure of success. 1t is often the case that a coasting competition forms the feature of a club run. A long hill is chosen, the straighter the better, and the entrant that goes the truest without removing his feet from the coasters, or sculling (mov- ing the forward wheel to the right and left) wins first prize. Probably the biggest coasting event ever held will he that now being promoted by the Metropolitan Association of Cycling Clubs of New York City. 1t will take place August l5, on one of the hills on the IrvingtOn-Milburn Course in Jersey, made famous by the great handicap held there annually on Decoration Day.

Dance at sherrill.

The progressive little town of Sherril has always been widely known for it's hospitality as well as it's pluck and vim. A number of young people from Pine Bluff know ing that cordial welcome awaited them. went to the Catholic ball and supper at that place Thursday night. The church realized about $l00 net, and everyone present realized that a more delightful entertainment would be hard to imagine.
 Among the interesting features of the occasion were the prizes award ed. Miss Sallie Lephiew was thought to be the prettiest lady pre- sent. and in that ease her face was her fortune, for they gave her cake for being pretty.
 Miss Sallie Vaugine had so many friends present that they awarded her n beautiful tea set as the most popular young lady i'll the room.
 Mir. r. Dolton "took the cake" as the most popular young man.
 If maidenly grace and delicacy are woman's chiefest charms, ugliness and strength should be the ends at which man should aim.
 Mir. T. W, Paine was successful in those aims, so his friends thought, and he got q cake for his ugliness. Mir. Paine is generous too, and he wanted to give his friends a slice oi his good luck. They got it. The cake was corn bread.
 "An ali round good time was the virdict of the visitors who will look forward with no small degree O ulpasure to the next Sherrill dance.
