TARANTULA TOO COLD TO BITE.
Insect Caught Among Chicken Feed
in n SOuth Dakota HOusc.

Chamberlain, S. D., Sept. 1.-Receiv-
er Graybill of the United States land
office ordered some chicken feed at To-
cal store yesterday. A clerk in getting to
the feed. removed some rubbish which
had accumulated from the unpacking
of bananas. When the hired girl went
TO the chicken feed to get some she dis
covered what she believed to be an
enormous spider.
Taking a tin pan, she poked the sup
posed spider into it, covered it with her
apron and carried it to her mistress,
who, upon the pan being uncovered
discovered that the spider wasa taran-
tula. After some delay the insect was
imprisoned in glass. That no one was
bitten can be explained only by the
supposition that the tarantula was be-
numbed by he cold weather which pre-
vailed at the time.

DANGEROUS THIRD TICKET.

The third ticket idea presents more
formidable obstacles to Bryan's man
ayers every day. Three weeks ago they
intimated that third ticket would get
about $4,000 votes. Today some of them
admit they are afraid it might poll 400,-
900 or 500, 900 votes.
Several prominent politicians of the
free silver type who are aspiring to the
speakership are saying softly to them
selves these days:
"Green suits my complexion and green
it shall be-" forgetting that the girl who
first said these ominous words let her
eggs fall, or was it. the milk can, and
got no green dress at all. The latest
open aspirant for the speakership. who
is counting noses before the heads are
out of water, is Bland. While here last
week he dropped some very decided
hints as to what he hoped for in the
next congress. Mr.. Bland declined the
nomination for governor with no other
idea in view than that he should pre-
side over the next House and appoint
the committees that would enact a free
silver law. His friends at home sympa-
thized with his ambition and nominated
him for congress by acclamation.
BANDS friends say that he and Bryan
are in perfect sympathy and accord, and

'clones do not flourish in Arkansas,
yet there are people living an the

strictly speaking, is not a hemp

are afraid to come here for fear
they might accidentally get their

In accordance with THE TINES

For the benefit OF the uninitia-
