Sc. Joseph, Mich, Women Want the Place
Run I'm Better shape.
ST JOSEPH, Mich, April 2S.-Forty
women. leading members of local clubs
and church societies have made a captive
OF Mayor John V. Sterr. They caught
him on the street, and, dragging him into
private residence, demanded that he CO.
operate with them In movement Of re-
form. The women cried that the laws
were not enforced: that the sale of cigar
cites was carried on with impunity; that
young girls were being enticed away, and
that the saloon regulations were loose,
and boys of all ages were given liquor on
asking.
For two hours the mayor was kept q
prisoner, and not until he promised to
submit the matter to the executive de-
partment of the city was he permitted to
escape. The women demadded the adop-
ton of a curfew bell, upon the ringing
of which children Of certain ages must
retire from the street. The city is consid-
erably torn up over the determined stand
taken by the women, and the effect of
their interview with the mayor Is freely
discussed

In the Dry Goods Emporium.

A midsummer quiet rested upon Mr..
Gerbers dry goods emporium in Sayville
yesterday, says the New York Sun. Mr.
Gerber and his half dozen clerks were
drowsily waiting for the arrival of closing
time Two young women were paving
tentatively an assortment of silks. Mr..
Gerber's big cat sat in the doorway feel
ing for a breeze with his whiskers. 1t
was calm and peaceful scene.
Enter a small mouse upon the peaceful
scene, mouse with a sad lack of judg-
ment. 1t scurried across the floor in full
view of the head clerk. Exit the two Gus
toners with whoops of chagrin.
"Hey, Tom. sic EN-" cried the head
clerk to the big cat not meaning the GUS
toners, but the mouse.
Tom the big cat, doesn't understand
dog language, but the squeak of alarm
which the mouse emitted woke him up
BY this time the mouse had bolted into
q molasses barrel and stuck fast in a
morass of molasses. In went Tom also
When he emerged, 1t was with laggard
feet, trailing sweetness. The mouse, COW
cred with molasses, was in his mouth.
His fur was shiny with molasses and his
whiskers reeked with it. Mr.. Gerber and
his clerks said 'iScaty simultaneously.
Tom misunderstood. He suspected they
wanted that mouse for themselves. So he
bolted, but not out the door. Instead he
went straight down the aisle The entire
store force started in pursuit. Dodging
basket which was hurled at his head
with evil intent. the cat assembled the
counter in one leap and proceeded to
prance disastrously upon the outspread
silks. Then he departed hastily through
an open window, leaving wrath and pro-
family behind him.
Mr. Gerber has on hand a stock of
watered silks of unique pattern.

Not So Confident.

1t is quite generally agreed that Illinois
Is the storm center of the political cam
paign. The republicans have been making
extravagant claims in respect to that
state. A few days ago Chairman Hanna
expressed the opinion that if registration
in Chicago reached 100000, Mr.. Mckinley
would have 100000 majority in that city,
and 1t was said that a republican poll of
the state by school districts, outside of
the city, showed a republican majority
of 5000, thus giving the state to Mckinley
by $4,000. 1t is worthy of notice that only
the most extreme of the republican pa
pers are making the claim that Mckinley
will carry the state by an overwhelming
majority. The more conservative ones are
10000 and $4,000 majority. The manager
of the Palmer Buckner campaign thinks
that Mr.. Bryan will have a plurality in
the state, outside of Chicago, and that
whatever majority Mr.. Mckinley has over
Mr.. Bryan in the state will have to be fur
nished by Chicago. He does not venture
an opinion as to what majority Mr.. Nc
Kinley will have in Chicago.
A curious feature of the Illinois situa-
ton is a steadily growing belief on the
part of many that even if Mckinley does
carry the state Gov. Altgeld will be re-
elected. 1t seems that the labormg men
and good many republicans, prefer him
to Mr.. Tanner, the republican gubernato-
rial candidate.
Gov. Altgeld Is a remarkable man in
some respects. He has succeeded in get
ting a firm hold upon the masses of Chi
cago, and he is besides an extraordinary
party organizer and manager. 1t seems
to be conceded that he is by far the most
forceful character that has taken part in
Illinois politics for years. Although his
attitude in the great railroad strike in 1894.
was very generally condemned throughout
the country, it strengthened him with the
laboring masses of his own state. They
regard him as their friend, and there is no
doubt that they are going to show their
friendship for him at the election. And
his popularity will give Mr.. Bryan many
votes. 1t is not at all improbable. there
fore, that there is disappointment in store
for the republicans in the matter of the
Illinois vote.
