Lots of Them, Also Diary, Discovered
 In Pennsylvania.
 Farmer John Tapping, whose plow recently uncovered the graves Of several pygmies who inhabited Waynesburg, Pa, thousands of years ago, spent an- other day looking for more graves.
 By dusk he had uncovered 20 of them in field that is rich ill archaeological treasures They formed circle and faced the east The circuit was nearly 400 feet i'll diameter
 The graves were simply elliptical holes that had been dug i'll the earth and covered by smooth slabs of sand stone, one of which was 29 inches in length, 2S inches in width and 3 inches in thickness The others varied q few inches from these figures, the largest being feet long and ? feet wide. The cavities under the slabs were 9 or 10 inches deep. The slabs were found uni formly 0 inches below the surface.
 The skeletons had been placed in the graves unprotected by masonry and were i'll cramped positions The head had been bent forward over the breast, and the limbs had been drawn up.
 MT. Tapping found 8 diary bound in deerskin It had belonged to his grand father, and the latter, on Oct IT, 1f96, noted the discovery of the skeleton Of a person not more than feet iii height. He had reburied the diary near the trunk of an apple tree, where it was dis covered. New York Recorder.

TRUE HUMANITY.
King Menelek Proves Himself Capable of
 Mercy.

Mercy.
 King Menelek of Abyssinia has not only proved his ability as warrior. but in his latest act proves he has the characteristic quality of all good fight CTS of being magnanimous to fallen foe. He has ordered the liberation of the Italian soldiers he has captured and is willing to let them go home
 From the beginning of the conflict with Italy this reputed savage has given evidence of intelligence and humane motives He has been defending his own and has defended it to good pur- pose. His discharge of his prisoners of war puts an end to the pretense that Italian aggression against his territory is in the interest of humanity or ciyili- zati0n
 Abyssinia might be better governed than it is, but it is not likely there would be any improvement if the gov erning power were transferred to the in- vaders, whose only object is the aggran- dizement of q foreign nation and the plunder of Abyssinian resources. Pitts burg Dispatch.

KENTUCKY

The Kentucky County Conven- tions, held Saturday, resulted in an overwhelming triumph for the free silver forces, and the silver wing of the Eemocratie party of that State will have complete mastery of the State Convention 10 select delegates to the National Democratic Convention. The re- suit is no doubt bitter disappoint- ment to the administration forces and will effectually eliminate Sec retary Carlisle, the candidate of the administration, as presidential possibility The action of Kentucky will also prove a strong leverage for the silverites in the neighbor- ing States of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, and free silver delegations to the National Convention from
 these States are now to be expected.
 Of course this means that the National Democratic Convention will be in the control of the silver men, and that they will write the plat form and nominate the candidate.
 The administration forces and op- ponents of free silver at the ratio of l6 to l seem thoroughly disorgani- zed throughout the country and are offering no serious opposition to their opponents. In Illinois, (outside of Cook County, Indiana and Ohio the sound money forces are offering no serious opposition to the on- ward march of the triumphant and shouting silverites. Here and there we witness q sporadic effort for sound money in the States above mentioned, but these efforts are confined almost entirely to large cities and commercial organizations.

BICYCLES FREE
To Boys and Girls Who Will Get Subscribers to the Daily and
 Semi Weekly Graphic.

The school season has about closed, and books will soon be dis placed in the mind of every boy and girl by sports and amusements. There Is nothing so popular at the present day as bicycles. and nothing so coveted by the young of both sexes. Most children, however, cannot afford the luxury of wheel owing to their great cost. In order, therefore, to give everyone an oppor- tunity of securing a good bicycle the GRAPHIC has decided to make the following offers:
 To every boy or girl who secures fifty subscribers to the Daily GRAPHIC for q period of two months or fifty subscribers to the Semi Weekly GRAPHIC for a period of one year each, will be given d S40 De fianee bicycle.
 To every person securing sixty two-month subscribers to the Daily or sixty yearly subscribers to the Semi Weekly GRAPHIC will be given a $50 Defiance bicycle.
 To every person. securing seventy two-month subscribers to the Daily or seventy yearly subscribers to the Semi-Weekly GRAPHIC win be given S60 Defiance bicycle.
 To every person securing eighty five two-month subscribers to the Daily or eighty-ive yearly subscrib- CTS to the Semi=Weekly GRAPHIC will be given q $75 Defiance bicycle.
 It is not necessary that the whole number be made up of subscribers to the same paper, but it may be com posed of part Daily and part Semi Weekly subscriptions.
 The above offers apply only to new subscribers or to parties taking neither the Daily nor Semi-Weekly GRAPHIC at the present time-May q. The subscription price-65 cents month for the Daily and $150 a year for the mi-Weekly-must accompany every name, else credit will not be given the solicitor. In the event three or foar month subscriptions to the Daily are secured, a corresponding decrease in the number required will he allowed. but no person will he permitted to subscribe fer q longer period than four months to the Daily or one year to the Semi-WeeklY. One .canvasser can transfer his list to the credit If another should he fail to get the required number to get a bicycle.
 Defiance bicycles are manufactured and guaranteed by the Monarch Cycle Mfg Co, of Chicago, and are made of the same material used in $100 wheels. They are, therefore, far superior to most cheap bicycles. The $40 and $50 wheels are for boys and girls and the $60 and $70 wheels for adults. Catalogues containing a detailed description of each machine and blanks for canvassing may be had free at the GRAPHIC office.
 Now is the chance for industrious boys and girls to get bicycles for little effort, and the sooner they get to work the easier will it be to secure the required number of sub scribers. Who will be the first one to get q wheel?

A PUzZLlNG QUESTION.
Mayor Schott Wants to Know if Fire
 crackers Are Musical Instruments?

Mayor Schott Wants to Know If Fire
 crackers Are Musical Instruments?
 Mayor Schott of Massillon, O., is struggling to determine whether or not q firecrackef is a musical instrument. This problem arises from the giving of an open air concert in the park. The musicians concluded their evening" per formance with the national hymn America, and, in order to give the SC lection according to the score, detailed two of their number to shoot off fire crackers.
 Now, there Is city ordinance au- thorizing band concerts to be given in the park and also one forbidding the exploding of firecrackers. No sooner had the f1recrackers gone off than bold po- liceman formed hollow square about the musicians and arrested them. They have pleaded not guilty and have de manded jury trial, that will take place next week In the meantime a public subscription is being undertaken to defend them, and popular sentiment seems to be with the band
 The defense will be that the use of frecrackers was required to play the selection, and that for the time being they must be considered as musical in- struments and not fireworks. Chicago Tribune
