CARVED HIS OWN COFFIN.
An English Craftsman Puts His Art to q
Strange Use.

A coffin yarn from England is this,
from a Nottingham paper: THE hobby
of an old gentleman, who has just de-
parted this life in Duddlestone, was
wood carving. Being of independent
means he was able to devote his time
to the craft and become very artistic
craftsman. After filling his house with
hand-carved furniture he turned his at
tenton to the carving Of an oaken
coffin, to contain his remains. Over
the richly-carved panels he spent much
loving care. In this coffin de luxe he
was buried recently, and in accordance
with minute instructions in his last will
and testament, was followed to the
grave by one mourner only-a young
man to whom he had left the bulk of
his property, ignoring all of his rela-
tives. The coffin was conveyed to the
churchyard in the old gentleman's pri-
vate vehicle, drawn by his favorite
pony"

The Republican committee is practcing a
guerilla policy in intimidating voters.
Chairman Honna is instructing business
men and others throughout the East to
teach their employees the necessities of a
gold standard by calling meetings at their
places of business, printing gold bug mot
toes on pay envelopes, audibly remarking
on pay days that the election of Bryan will
mean the ruin of their business, etc. This
is the character of political bulldozing which
is frequently followed, but Nevada will be
