All of Europe, excepting Russia,
can raise a war footing of l3,6OO, =
600 troops. With all OF this avail
able militia Uncle Sam might put
over 5000, 900 in the field. Adding
the total war footing of Russia
over 10, 600, ,OOO-we would have al
together over 5000, 600 men. Eng
land alone can muster $780, 900
against our 1000, 900. 1t would ap-
pear that we have nothing to tear

many iaunt on a "serenade bent

They have passed many sweet

We publish the last clause OF this

A PRETTY THOUGHT,

AS ships meet at sea a moment
together, when words of greeting
must be spoken, and then away
upon the deep, so men meet in this
world, and ] think we should cross
no mans path without hailng him,
and if he needs, giving him sup.
plies. -Beecher,
This is pretty sentiment, but
there are too many Coxeys' in this
country for our supplies to hold out.
Should we adopt this plan the
''human boots without stretched
and bare arms would be so thick on
the high and by-ways that it would
be impossible to make a passage.

Human Arm Kneading.

Where the kneading of dough is
performed by hand it is impossible
even under the most favorable cir
cumstances to prevent the exuding
of the sweat of the brow and more
particularly of the powerful arms
that are dived up to the armpits
into the pillows of -four and water
which they are to knead. Added
to this is the putting and blowing of
all kinds of breath, charged with
tobacco, drink, or the germs of an
impaired health, or merely the in
firmly of sneezing during the pass
ing indisposition called bad cold.
And what concourse OF bacllli,
bacteria and their aunts and cous-
ms must be congregated there with
open jaws ready to seize upon their
victims. For the consolation of
those bakers who are still obliged to
resort to this means of kneading
dough be it stated that there are
many people who do not mind it all,
A lady, scrupulously clean in every
thing else, expressed the conviction
that all of the above named favor
ings disappeared in the heat to
which the bread was exposed in the
process of baking. Faith is half
the cure and such customers are
quite likely to live long enough to
see out the last pair of human arm
kneaders. There must of course be
exceptions to prove rule, and the
rule is that the more the public
sees and hears of the manual pro-
cess of making bread, the more
they shrink from eating it, and the
more they patronize those bakeries
where machininery is used, and
bread is made almost untouched by
hand.
A hint to the wise is sufficient

himself in the head with a 80 calibre
revolver. The porter at the Hotel
the hotel about 5 O'Clock and saw a
man lying, or reclining against the
rear of E. L. Woods harness shop.
He went over to see who it was, sup,
posing the man was drunk, but when
he got near enough, saw that it was
grim and CHASTITY DEATH. The women
at the hotel heard shot about 4:30,
but paid no attention to it. Deceased
purchased the revolver and box of
cartridges from o. S. Bailey about
O'Clock, and although being in town
most all afternoon exhibited no signs
of being mentally unbalanced. No
papers. or any evidence was found to
show why the rash deed was done.
Deceased was unmarried. having
lived with his brother. Arthur, south
of the river for the last five or six years.
Another brother ]. G. Gould, lives in
town, and the funeral occurred from
his home Friday afternoon. Mrs.
Gould, mother of Guardy, lives with
her daughter Mrs. Oss Wood, north of
town. The sudden death and the man
ner of it was terrible shock to the
relatives aud friends, and no one is
able to determine cause for it, other
than rather poor health for the past
few years.
