Col. Watterson thinks that Pres
ident Cleveland will want to be
the candidate Of the democratic
party for the presidency in 1900
Col. Watterson is one Of the most
astute of the democratic editors oi
the country, and prouably guesses
very near to the mark as to what
MIR. Cleveland may desire, on the
line Of his own feeling on the sub.
ject, but he will find he is not
much of a prophet as far as the
democratic party is concerned Al
bany Herald.
Cleveland stands a better show
of being the republican nominee
in 1900, than he does Of being
nominated by the democrats. His
financial views are similar to those
Of the republicans, and it is prob
able that he could easily flop" to
a profession of belief in even as
high a tariff as the most ardent
republican could wish for, as he is
rich enough to buy everything he.
wants even if the the manufactur-
ers should demand an exorbitant
price-under cover Of the tariff. As
for the laboring people, it would
cut very little figure with him how
they would get along-and that
seems to be another principle Of
the republican leaders.

arrival Of the holidays, the close o.
the year, and the period Of annual
stockstaking have further checked
the volume Of wholesale trade.
Only filling in orders are being re-
ceived and trade is slow. Retail
demand for holiday goods has been
active, but it is for cheaper grades
than in previous years. In other
lines the distribution Of merchan-
disc has been smaller at number
Of distributing centers. Failures
Of important banking institutions
at Northwestern points tend to un-
settle confidence in commercial
and banking circles. Few sales
men remain on the road, but most
Of them are preparing to go out
within fortnight. The moderate
trade revival which followed the
last presidential election has heen
disappointing in that, aside from
Christmas demand, business has
been more unsatisfactory for a
month past than for a like period
in many years. There are 327
business failures reported in
the United States this week, 12I

The Jackson county Judge has
discovered something to the credit
Of the state railroad commission;
he says it cut down one bull pine
in that county. He does not state
whether the act was beneficial or
not, but it is to be presumed that
it was; also, that there are no other
bull pines that are a menace to the
public veal. Having, therefore, at
an expense OF some $4,000 during
the past ten years, gotten rid of
that tree, might it not be well to
relieve the state Of the expense of
the commission FOR the future?

NOVEL PHOTOGRAPHS.


A French photographer has pleased
Paris, always charmed with novelty
by producing extraordinary photo
graphic combinations through an in,
genious arrangements of mirrors. Tht
results he attains are novel, surprising
and sometimes sensational, as, for in.
stance, his bona tide photograph of d
well-known Partisan being ridden in
the street by his horse, Grotesque com.
bnations such as this are, of course,
familiar to us all, for photographers
have long been able 10 produce very
curious effects by embodying figures
from several negatives in one print,
The beauty of this last Photographic
novelty is, however, that the prints do
not "give away the process, as the old
fashioned built up photographs inyari-
ably do by the stilted postures and in
conglmous discords Of the composition,
but appear to be single, instantaneous
glimrses of real scenes Of an altogether
impossible nature. They are clever
enough TO deceive an expert, or to make
a asuperstitious person almost believe III
miracles.
All Paris is enthusiastic over one OF
his pictures in particular. 1t is pho
tograph Of gentleman in evening
dress, with the face of his fiancee
daintily poised on his immaculate shirt
front, The girls face seems to be as
much part of the mans figure as is his
head, and not merely picture stamped
on the white linen bosom.
This feat is accomplished by posing
the figures in such a way that they are
reflected from the maze Of mirrors di-
reetly into the eye OF the camera. Some
times the woman's face is reproduced
in smaller form, and in the shane of
heart, and is soarranged as to take the
place of the organ in which the god OF
love is popularly supposed to dwell.
Photographs taken by the mirror
process show people in every concciy.
able position. For instance, two broth
ers are photographed to appear as one
balanced upside down on the others

from patent leather pumps to crush
hats, 1t is difficult to decide when one
has the picture right side up. Pictures

He never could be made to understand
that poker was anything moro than .

laugh AMI played on. After while the

and took new pack ''for luck" Half

were looking Oh. but nobody objected;
IL was the custom. II came the col

to his own hand. dropped one OF them on
the floor. Without looking. he stopped
and gathered q card from under the
table. His face frightened. The cap

face went whittier than ever. The hand

With an almost child like laugh Of

his winnings, when the captain sprang
to his feet and brought his hand down
on the cards. Gentlemen, I denounce
this man as cheat" He lifted his
hand, and there was one blue back
among the red ones scattered over the
table.
In the turmoil that followed,
the colonel was almost drag

got away. or course there was nothing
for it but to fight. His friends. and
they were many, wsited for his orders.
But, after the tirst burst OF rage. he
seemed stupefied; he sat perfectly client,
staring straight in front Of him. Finally
his fellow officers spoke. He must do

roar Of indignation. Not only the col

army was at stake. He must
the man, since he would not
fight. There was nothing else for it. So
they talked and argued, excitedly,
sternly, and the colonel listened duly
and said yes, he must horsewhip him.
He stayed indoors that night. and the
post talked Of the morning. At ten o.
clock the next day the troops were
drawn up in line ready for parade. The
captain stood in front Of his company.
Every man and woman at the post was
there, to see "the chief" horsewhip the
who had dared to insult him.
The excitement was intense; there was
a death-like stiffness, and every eye was
as the colonel walked slowly
across the parade ground. His face
was white and stern and bis step firm
and deliberate; in his hand was twisted
leather whip such as teamsters use in
driving mules.
The captain saw him coming, and
stood like a rock, with his arms folded,
and a cold smile of unutterable con-
tempt and malignant hatred on his face.
When his adversary stopped in front Of
him, he raised his head, and, without
changing his position, looked him
straight in bus eyes, his black and evil
face set in an expression Of devilish
scorn. With a gesture of noble indig-
nation, the colonel raised his whip in
the air, held it poised moment, and
then the brave soldier, the superb
gentleman, shrank back weakly, drop
ped his whip to the ground. and
buried his face 10 his hands. Then he
went back to his quarters. and
