recently made: Two Kansas men have
drawn up the following agreement:
"W. Glasscock and C. Burnett make an
agreement this day that if Mckinley is
defeated Glasscock is to eat large,
warty toad, but if he is elected Burnett
is to eat the toad" Two young men of
Philadelphia have been paying marked
attention to the same young lady.
They have decided to let the election
settle matters for them. If the demo-
crat wins the republican is to stop call
ing on the young lady for six months,
and vice versa. Another novel bet has
been made in Philadelphia. The loser
is to resign his present position and for
n year take up one in an entirely differ
ent branch OF industry.

United States ind the British colonies

pose of the convention was to recon-

with only partial success. The other
incident is the publication of the report

posed mainly of Englishmen, which has
been for three years Investigating the
subject of Irish taxation. The oonolu-
sion reached by ten of the 1s members
is that for so years England has been
