A Scene on the BOulevards.

At the last New Years fair in Paris,
one Of the stockholders, who, despite the
good weather and the multitude of
paissers-by, had done very little busi-
ness, had recourse to an original
method of clearing out his stock. While
delivering his usual speech on the ex-
cellence of his fify-centime articles,
a gentleman, in a state of the greatest
excitement, pushed his way through
the crowd and exclaimed:
There You are, You rascal! No Won
der you can sell these things at ten sous
when you still owe me a franc and a
half apiece for them. But the matter
shall be looked into. / am going
straight to fetch the police
The excited gentleman disappeared.
Our salesman trembled in his shoes and
entreated the bystanders to relieve him
OF his wares. This they were ready
enough to do in the belief that they
We're about to get all sorts of nice bar
gains at third of their real value.
And the trick was done, for the pre-
tended wholesale merchant was merely
an accomplice of the "cheap-jack. lie

The World Has Waited a
Thousand Years for This.

So writes happy man fresh from the
Slough of Despond.
Well, the discovery has been proclaimed
but men are slow to believe.
The way is open to inquire, to investigate.
Why will not every man do so?
There is a simple way to cure at home all
those baneful effects of the sins of youth and
the excesses of later years which blast the
lives of multitudes of men.
There is a way to regain strength lost by
disease, overwork and worry.
A way to secure and retain the abilities
sacrificed to dissipation-to =" be glad again
after suffering an atonement."
A way to repair drains on the system that
sap the vitality.
way to replace nervousness, dread and
dependency with courage and self-respect.
n way to give full strength, development
and tone to every portion of the body.
A way to remove every obstacle to happy
and fruitful married life.
All this is clearly shown in little medical
work recently published 1t is not book

and scientific and for men on,y who need ad-
rice and aid.

WHAT SHALL ONE CALL IT?
"WheeI' Sounds Better Than "Bike -
Which is Declared Not Elegant.

The boys call it a bike" and are
happy; the dictionary makers call it
a bicycle" and rest content, though
heaven knows the pathological sin
ought to lie heavily on their literary
consciences; and we who ride and are
happy and independent, call it
Wheel" in spite of the finicky protest
of sundry would-be pedants who fill
space in the daily and weekly papers:
Pray, why not wheel? Do you
know Of better name? Surely not obi
cycle" for bicycle" beside being an
awkward word does not describe the
instrument of delight we know, as
doubtless the originator of the word
fully dreamed it did. Bicycle has an
affected, strained sound that ill ac-
cords with the best elements Of the Ian
guage we love, the language whose
strength lies in its short, crisp words,
pulsating with life and meaning. 1t is
not unusual to designate a specific
thing by generic term, and we do no
violence to the language when we say
we ride wheel. The term came into
general use when men did literally ride
upon wheel, in the days of the old
"ordinaries,'' before the advent of
SaIeEeS. III was a wheel they rode,
the second member of the machine
trailing behind in almost unnoticed in
significance. 1t was then that a thou
sand tongues at once named the wheel;
this democratic term Of spontaneous
birth has had a tenacious life, and will
still live, for 1t is always the people who
make the language-not pedants nor
dictionary compilers. -
The editor of ''Womankind" rides a
wheel You may call it a bike" if
you have no regard for the elegancies
of language; safety" If you are old
fashioned enough to remember that
name; bicycle" If you must; but no.
tice is given, here and now, that the
good, expressive term wheel will have
right of way in these columns.-Wom-

TURNING TO CHICAGO.
THE FIRST SKIRMISH FOR SILVER
TAKES PLACE TO-
DAY.
When the Subcommittee Began Their
Work-Silver Men Afraid That
They Will be Defeated for a Ma
jority by Trickery-They Will
Have q Merry Time.

Chicago. June 3O.-The sub-commit-
tee Of the democratic committee will
meet at the Palmer house in this city
tomorrow for the purpose of arranging
some of the minor details of the con-
vention. The subcommittee consists
of Chairman Harrity of PENNSYLVANIA,
Secretary Sheerin of Indiana, and
Messrs. u. T. Gable. 'Illinoi j. G. Prath-
er, Missouri. c. c. Wall of Wisconsin,
H. c. Wallace of Washington and T. II.
Sherley OF Kentucky. The committee
will hear the reports from the sub-com-
mittees on music. press and decoration
Of the hall.
Col Sheerin said today that the min
or committees having these matters in
charge would be able to report that
everything was in readiness for the
convention and he had no doubt that
the subcommittee in charge would find
the work in all respects satisfactory.
The national committee has departed
from the usual rule Of having a COM
mittee composed Of residents to look
after these matters. They placed the
work in the hands of members of their
own organization, and they feel that
the innovation has proved a success.
The full national committee will not
meet until noon next Monday. the day
before the convention. No one appears
to have a definite idea as to what bust
ness it will have before it. There have
been reports Of contests from various
states, notably Michigan, Texas, Ne
braska, Nevada and Colorado, but he
says that so far he has received official
notice of none except that from Ne
braska.
The democratic party has in the past
been so free from contests that there
are few presidents to guide them.
The national committee has never
heretofore granted hearings as the re-
publican committee does, and has not
attempted to arrange them, so far as
to decide what set of delegates. where
there are contests, shall have their
names placed upon the temporary roll.
The practice has been rather to de-
prive both parties to a contest from
participating in the temporary organi-
cation, thus referring the entire mat
ter to the convention. 1t is believed
that this plan will be pursued this year.
though the silver men have been some
what a~pprehensive that the national
committee may attempt to override
these presidents and seat gold con-
t%estants, believing a majority OF the
committee to be opposed to silver.
Hence the subcommittee which will
meet tomorrow will be asked by the
silverites to give them some assurance
on this point. The national committee
will. at its meeting next Monday. desig-
nate the temporary officers of the con-
v%ention, including the temporary chair
man.

A NOT AFRAID.
Only Wants to be Ready to Fight the
United States.

New York. June 3O.-A special to the
Herald from Madrid says: The state
ment contained in the Daily Mail teIe-
gram to the effect that the platform
adopted by the St. Louis convention
causes uneasiness in Spain and that it
is feared a conflict with the United
States has now almost a fixed date, is
misleading. While there does exist a
feeling of unrest on ccou of the
declaration of the convention touch
ing the Cuban question. it must not be
imagined that it is dictated by fear, but
rather springs from n very natural de-
sire to know the worst at once. There
can be no question that Spain is max
ing preparations for eventualities, but
she is certainly not doing so with any
intention of making war. but in order
to be in as good a position as possible
to defend herself if attacked. The pur-
chase of iron clads can hardly be said
to be the outcome of any immediate
scare, as this step has been in contem-
plation for some time. but there is no
doubt that the action Of the govern
ment has been fastened by recent
events. The chief idea in strengthen
ing the navy is to be able to put a stop
to filibustering and p~rivateering. There
is not any great apprehension that Mr..
Mckinley will, if elected. act very diff
ferently in that capacity han Mr..
Cleveland has done.

Well-to-Do kansans Building Homes
at Cooper Hill.

The mining interests at Cooper Hill
are looking more favorable every day
as work progresses and the population
is being augmented by new arrivals ev-
cry few days. Three or four days ago
several families of Kansans reached the
camp and word comes in that they have
laid out town lots and started to build
homes in Morganvi,le. They Assert that
they have come here TO stay. They ap-
pear to be men of considerable means
and say that they will remain for two
years at the least.
Mr.. West of the Carbon County Gold
Mining company of Cooper Hill stated
today that he expects from ~ to 10
men of means from Kansas City il a
few days to look up desirable invest
ments in mining properties in this sec
ton. If the outlook warrants it they
will put in considerable money.

Trinity safe at the end, leading by
about a quarter of a boats length. AL.
though very early in the day, the squirt

Two important members of Yale's

slight ailments, which will necessitate
their remaining quiet for a day or two.
THE new English oars ordered a
week or more ago were used for the
first time today. Although they have
only been tried nee. they seem to be
an improvement over the American
bars brought over by the crew. They
catch the water better and have a SUI
perior sweep.
THE work today was particularly
satisfactory to me, not alone on ac-
count Of the good showing made by the
Yale crew against the second Trinity
Hall. which is significant, as that crew
beat the Trinity Hall in a short squirt
a few days ago, but also because Yale
went over half the course today with a
SO stroke in 3 minutes IS seconds"
