San Salvador is built on a volcano.
It has been three times destroyed by
an earthquake, but the people are
becoming accustomed to such excite
ments now. the shocks come as fire.
quenuly as eighty times in an hour.
The effects are quite peculiar. In the
city of Salvador is a brick column,
nine feet high and three feet square,
that was moved one hundred feet
without losing its perpendicularity or
cracking the mortar.
The ground under the city of Saliva
dor is full Of caverns of unknown
dep tn. A man was digging we'll
there. The last stroke he gave with
his pick the bottom fell out, and he
and his pick fell through, nobody
knows where-to China, probably.

The best bed ticking made into nit
tens are cheap and comfortable, when
the weather is moderately cold, for
farmers chore mittens and prevent
the hands from chapping, as they are
apt to do if uncovered in the wind. It
is but few minutes work to make
pair. One yard will make four pairs.
Honey has great affinity for mois
ure, and if comb honey is stored in a
damp atmosphere it will absorb the
moisture through the slightly porous
cappings and become thin and watery.
The bulk of the honey will be SO in
creased that it will burst the cells and
ooze out. This honey may become SO
thinned that fermentation will set in.
Cold is also detrimental to comb hon
ey, causing it to candy in the cells.
When comb honey is first taken from
the hives, it should be stored in a hot,
dry atmosphere. A room in the
southwest corner of building where
it will become very hot in the after
noon is good place to store comb
honey, as a correspondent in the
Country Gentleman explains. The
heat continues the ripening process,
and if there are any unsealed cells of
honey the honey in them becomes
thicker and ripper instead of thinner.
Down cellar is where the ordinary
purchaser of comb honey is almost
sure to put it. No place can be more
undesirable. Dryness and warmth
are the requisites for keeping comb
honey. As ordinarily kept comb hon
ey will candy before spring, but by
keeping it in a warm atmosphere it
will not candy and will really improve
with time.

he learned the art of cooking beef

He selects his steaks five or six weeks
before they are cooked, and keeps
them in an ice box until they are want

they are cooked over hickory Goals.

SETTLING THE CONTESTS.

The national committee has undertaken
the settlement OF the contest cases at 81.
Louis in the right spirit. by giving all the
time that could be asked for the presenta-
ton OF each case there will he no reason
able ground for dissatisfaction on the part
Of any. The interests OF Major Mckinley
eannot he unfavor lily affected thereby
in any event. Tho contested delegations
are not needed for his nomination and the
committee Is wisely avoiding any appear
ance OF bias In their decisions.
Mr.. Plat may be disgruntlcd because his
plans for blocking a nomination on the
first ballot have miscarricd. but he will not
hnd 1t an easy matter to convince the con-
vention TINT the contcsting delegations
secured by the combine for that specific
purpose are entitled to an opcn right Of
way regardless OF the testimony that is
presented to the committee.
II became apparent early in the canvass
that a Mckinley boom had set In aud that
the only way to defeat the will Of the people
was by a resort to every possible form OF
political manouyering that could be en-
ployel with any show Of success. The
South was the most promising field TO en-
ter for the principal work in hand. These
contesting delegations are the result of
transplantiug Plattism there. They We're
manufactured for use In the temporary
organization OF the convention, in the hope
that tho committee might he found amena-
BILE TO Mr.. Platt's
The disappointment is unquestiorabiy n
severe one. but 1t has come to a pass where
the dissatisfaction Of the New York boss
Is Of very little consequence to the Repub-
l!can party In general. His threats or
pleadings will have very little influence
either with the committee or the conven-
tlon. Tho contests can be heard and set
tied on their merits, regardless OF any
other consideration whatever, and that is
what win unaombtehly be done.

A DIRTY PIECE OF BUSINESS.

Shortly after the nomination OF John Il
Tanner as the Republican candidate for
governor OF Illinois one Of the daily news
papers OF Chicago resurrectcd an old story
IN the life Of that gentleman. and by the
dcft manipulation Of facts and the assist
ance Of the treacherous memory OF person
al and political enemies constructed a tale
Well calculated. II uncontradirted, to srri-
ously erdanFer the chances Of his election.
1t was a work of "lndependrnt journalism"
and thus presumably entitled to more no.
tice than it would otherwise have had.
1t was set forth in statements at great
length that in his earlier years Mr.. Tanner
had committed an uniustinable murder.
The paper called 1t homicide, but murder is
the proper word to 1T the specific nature
Of the charges made, The story in itself
was an old one. II had been used on a
previous occasion for all that the political
opponents could get out OF it. In It's now
guise it was accepted as fresh evidence,
and was really accepted by many as very
damaging to the character OF the candl-
date.
1t was charged, in brief. that in an al
tercation with one Ersklne. shortly after
the war. the latter was killed by a shot
from a revolver in the hands OF Tanner.
This is a fact as admitted In the trials of
the case. the result of which was that Tan
ner was acquitted of the charge OF man
slaughter. The revival Of the story at this
time Was for the purpose of making It APP
pear that the shooting was uniustihable-
Ia short. a murder.
BY misleading insinuatIon and inuendo
bearing plain evidence of the existence
of a malicious intent upon the part OF some
of the authorities quoted. a case was made
out which on it's face had an extremely
bad look. a reply was clearly necessary.
and 1t soon came In such a shape as to
brand the whole charge as one OF the most
Indecent efforts OF character assassination
ever attempted In a political contest, No

The st. Louis platform should have no
appearance Of n sttaddic on the tarin
question. There Is nothing In the world
;ha, would please the Democrats more than
to have tho convention take water on the
subject The tarim plank should be as cin-
rhatic in its declaration for protection as
any that the party has ever adopted. The
plank should be made for Republicans. and
not with II view to catching Democratic
votes.
Tho elections held since tho disastrous
surrender to free ttude In 1872 have shown
that the people want protection. and that
they want tho kind Of protection that pro.
tects. They Will look for a declaration rc-
affirming the policy on which the parts was
defeated In the last contest.
1t was the awakening OF tho people to n
full realization OF the fact that a great
mistake was then made that swept tho
country for William Mckinley in the re-
cent canvass. and that has restored the itc-
publican party 10 power In n dozen states
1t then lost. Any evidence OF weakening
will be a disappointment that will cost the
party dearly.
\ number Of planks have been proposed,
which. II adopted. would court disaster at
the polls. IT Will not do TO atop half way.
The question is either the free trade Of
Clevclandism or the protection OF stalwurt
Repubiicanism. Tho tariff issue is one that
the people understand. They nave had an
education upon tho subject that is so COM
piete ms to admit Of no misconstruction.

form of 1855, the hopes of the people would
be realized. W are uncompromisingly in
favor OF the American system OF protcc-
ton that is the way It started out. I'VE
protest against Its destruction. as proposed
by the president and his party. They serve
the interests OF Europe; we will supper, the
interests of America"
That has the right sort of n ring. II Is
not susceptible OF any misunderstanding
whatever. Give the country an assurance
like that, and the returns in November
will show that It is what tho people want.
To be less emphatic would be Il mistake Of
the most serious kind.
There IL no question In the minds OF
thoughtful men but the party. when once
again In power. will proceed with the al.
fairs OF government directly on such lines.
That sort OF protection Is Just as sure to
come Hs the sun is to rise on the 18th day Of
March next. II no mistake is made In bid
ding FOR the popular vote--no matter what
may be tho terms used in the tariff plank
of the coming convention. The voters OF
all parties should be plainly Informed OF II

disguise whatever. and there would be no
