Circus Day Yesterday.

Yesterday morning, the inhabitants OF
the outlying districts began to pour into
the village at an early hour and the viii
layers themselves paid more than the us.
ual amount OF attention to the fortissimo
selections rendered by their alarm clocks;
for the circus was due to appear and every
body felt called upon to pose for once as
an early riser.
But nothing was seen OF John H Spar KS
Colossal Show until after nine O'Clock,
when 1t was discovered that a car backed
on to a sidetrack was being relieved OF
thinos that might possibly belong to a
colossal show. An adjournment to the
region round about that car was moved
and carried, and the crowd quickly melt
ed and solicited again in new spot.
A few planks had been let down
from the floor OF the car to the ground,
and with suppressed excitement the crowd
watched for long time the unloading OF
long tent poles, trunks and all sorts of
baggage, expecting every moment to see
hippopotamus at least come skipping over
that improvised roadway.
AT length some enterprising individual
allowed his eyes to roam over the multi
tude and straightway espied Mr.. George
Moulton sitting in mis- carriage. "Well
fellers," he exclaimed with sigh of re-
lief, 1--WE can see the TAT boy at any rate"

Talk Of Recognizing Both OIj
Parties.
ON THE BlMETAlLIC ISSUES
senator Carter Asserts That Western
Republicans VIII stand by the
Party OF Lincoln.

Chicago. Feb. pa special to the
Record from Washington says:
The remarkable speech OF Senator
Carter in the senate, taken in connec-
ton with that of Secretary Carlisle at
the Manhattan Club in New York a
few days ago. has started a good deal
of talk about a reorganization of the
old political parties and division of
the people upon new lines. Both the
republicans and the democrats seem
almost hopelessly divided upon the
same issue, and that the most import
ant before the American people today
The parties are united upon every other
issue. More than half the democrats in
congress declare that they will not sup
port the candidate to be nominated at
Chicago unless he pledges himself to
free coinage. A considerable portion
Of the republicans say the same CON
cerning the candidate to be nominated
at St Louis. Then why, II is asked,
can not those in both parties who think
alike get together and name men who
agree with them? a great many peo-
pie believe that IL discussion and d.
vision continue much longer that viii
happen
Senator Carter says: We are going
to get together before the st, Louis
convention. The silver men in the west
are not going to bolt the republican
party. There are many other issues
upon which we all agree, and they
would hold us together, ne matter how
much we might differ on the money
| question. Nevertheless, we western fell
| lows intend to have something to say
| about the management and the policy
| of the party. We don't propose to lei

TO CONTROL SLEEPING CARS
Bill in Congress for Regulation Of Prices
by Law.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-Congressman
Corliss of Michigan has introduced
bin to extend the jurisdiction OF the
interstate laws to sleeping and parlor
cars and to reduce the price Of berths
and seats about 20 per cent. In addi-
ton, his bill provides that it shall be un-
lawful for any porter OF other servant
OF the sleeping car companies to receive
tips from passengers, and the bill also
contains the usual provisions to prevent
the making up of upper berths before
they are sold. This bill is meeting with
vigorous opposition on the part Of par
lor car manufacturers, and particularly
the Pullman people. The house commit
tee which has the bill under considera-
ton is today giving the representatives
of these companies an audience. and
viii probably make its final report inn
mediately following the conference.
This bill is the result of the refusal of
the companies to make a difference In
favor of their patrons between the price
Of upper and lower berths

PERU AND THE PRoTEsTANTs
Governor Has Prepared a Resolution OF
Moderation.


Lima, Peru, Feb IS, via Galveston
Texas. The governor has ordered the
preparation of a resolution which will
be submitted to congress providing for
the registration of Protestant mar
riages This is the result Of lengthy
diplomatic action in which the United
States government and the government
Of Great Britain have taken part Rev.
Mr. Wood, head Of the mission in Peru,
some of whose missionaries belong to
the East London institute and others to
the American Bible Society, has had
trouble with the Peruvian officials for
a long time, The expulsion of some Of
his missionaries from CuZoo brought
about an exchange of notes on the sub
ject between Great Britain and Peru
The refusal of the registra tion of mar
riage of Miss Wood with Mr.. Hazeltine
was the basis of diplomatic action upon
the part of the United States. The mis-
sionary question was involved and the
marriage question thus brought to the
front are regarded as of great import
ance by all Protestants of Peru and il
has been indicated for some time that
they might possibly lead to a change
of the Peruvian constitution, but the
government appears willing to meet the
issue in a friendly spirit as indicated
by the resolution previously referred
to. Wood at one time went among the
savages in Peru at the peril of his life.

WANT INDEPENDENT DELEGATE

yet they manage to hold control of the

minority counties in the state, succeed
in controlling the national delegation.
