On certain occasion Sam Jones occupied a
pulpit in strange town, and in his sermon in
weighed with his usual vehemence against human
"meanness.' This sad trait of mankind he Illus
trated in many different ways. At length, COM
ing to refer to the parsmony with which many
Christian congregations treat their preachers, to
give the local application to this point. he sud-
denly turned to the pastor of the church, who
sat upon the platform near him, and asked:
Brother, bout how much do these folks pay
you per year?' -Four hundred dollars, - was the
reply. And bout how many of 'em are there
in the cong 'gatiOn?" Five or six hundred.
''Well, WE'LL" exclaimed Sam, turning reproach-
fully toward his audience. six hundred of em
and they give less'n dollar year each! Do
you know what would do if L had as mean a
crowd as that to deal with?"-and he turned
once more to the pastor of the flock. I'D GO
out and get some little stray yaller dog and sic
him on to 'em!'' That's just what hare done. .
replied the preacher, motioning as if to clap his
hands-"Sic 'em, Sam, sic 'em. Massey s Mag

paid. For the Campaign, Till Dec.
LIST, Only IS Cents.
Published Every Thursday.

During the past year the conductors of the
POst-Dispatch have been many times urged to
publish Weekly edition. The requests have
come chiefly from farmers, laborers and others,
who are not SO situated that they can take or
read Daily newspaper. Similar requests have
come from postmasters news agents and others
who are in close touch with the people.
In compliance with these requests. which seem
to indicate widespread popular demand. the

almost entirely of reading matter-carrying little
or no advertising.
1t will be issued once week (on Thursdays
at the extremely low price of so cents year. AS
the object of the publishers is to furnish weekly
newspaper for the masses of the people, it was
deemed preferable to publish regular once-a.
week weekly at half the regular price, rather
than twice-a-week issue at the usual price of 81
year.
1t will, like the Daily Post-Dispatch, be a
Newspaper for the People, championing West
ern Men and Measures, and standing for those
Policies the success of which is essential to the
prosperity of the masses of the people in the
West and South. and in the country at large.
ropoltan newspaper that uncOmpromisingly adj
vOcates the free coinage of silver at the ratio OF

The late Bill Nye said of spring: Spring is
here. 1t has been here before, but not so much
as it is now. This is the season of the year when
the robins nest again and the wild goose wends
his weary way north. 1t is now that the husband
and father goes up into the attic to get the screen
doors and windows to fool the annual fly when
he makes his spring debut. He finds them in
the gloom and cobwebs. He also finds the rafter
with his head. and language to express his feel
ings with. When he comes down again he has
two new intellectual faculties sticking out on his
brow like buttons on barn door,"

A Newspaper MANS Experiences.

An interesting story is told of Port
land newspaper man who. lately took a
few days off to visit the Hub. The
story goes that the gentleman has rela-
tive attached to the Charlestown navy
yard. 1he newspaper man went out to
the yard in pouring rain. He got to a
gaee, but found it closed. He pounded
away on it anxious ito get in out Of the
wet. Now it happened that boys had
been very annoying at that gate thump-
ing on it and giving cat calls and the
guard had been instructed to pull In
any one who disturbed the place there
after. So, when the guard heard the
humping and shaking Of the gate he
promptly came forward with another
marine and the first the newspaper man
knew he was. ulder the guard of the two
marines and marched to the guard house.
Frotestation was in vain until the Off
Ger Of the guard came around, about half
an hour later and the newspaper man
succeeded in explaining and was released.
By that time be also ascsrtained that
his relative was not at the yard and left
rather disguised with his experience.

FIRE IN KELLEY'S FOUNDRY,
Damaged Lot of Valuable Patterns-Was
Caused by Sparks from Furnace.

The alarm from box 412 at O'Clock
last evening was for fire in the two
story wooden buildings on Cross street,
owned and occupied by Daniel T. Kelley
as an iron foundry. The fire started from
a spark which few from furnace, and
1t had been underway some time when
it was discovered by John Moe uire, the
foreman of the shop. He was just about
to leave the building for the night when
he discovered the FIRE and gave the alarm.
The fire department. made quick run
and the new chemical horses acted very
we'll considering the fact that this was
cir first opportunity to display their
ability. The blaze was chiefly confined
to the room on the second story of the
building known as the pattern shop. 1t
took considerable water to subdue 1t,
but the all out signal was sounded at 6. 40
O'Clock
The loss will be somewhere in the
neigh borhood of $4,000. This was caused
mostly by the damage done so the pat
erns from water and smoke There was
an insurance Of 5000 on the patterns and
considerable more than this on the build
ing which was also damaged.
While trying to break in second story
window to get OF the fire, Il. R. Davis Of

the hand. He went to the DOCTORS to
have the wound dressed. The hydrant
at the corner of Fore and Cross streets
