Reduction in railroad Fares.

AS there will be numerous requests
for reduced rates on account of political
meetings during the coming contest, it
has been decided that IN order to treat
all parties alike, one fare rate will be
made by the 0. r. & n. Co. Tor various
meetings of this character.
This of course is intended only for oc-
casions where there is sufficient number
to Justify a reduction in rates. This is
done SO that there will, be no partiality
in favor of any one party.

Silver Speeches.
WASHINGTON, Aug. H. Some con-
sternation has been created at the treas
ury department through the discovery
that in some unexplained manner the
bureau officers had been guilty of circu-
lating come of Senator Stewards
speeches. To answer comprehensively
all the many questions relating to the
currency question that have been pour
ing in, Secretary Carlisle some time ago
caused to be prepared circular No. 113,
a pamphlet of fifty-three printed pages,
giving much information respecting
bond issues, paper currency and the
like. When an application for informa-
tion was received, the answer to which
could be found in this pamphlet, the
bureau chief receiving the letter would
applicant in place of writing out an an
swer.
This has been going on for at least
week, and there is no telling how many
circulars were sent out when letter
came to hand from one of the recipients
calling attention to the fact that the de-
partment had sent in answer to his
question, a copy of strong silver speech
delivered by Senator Stewart in the
senate September 5th last, when fiji
buster was going on.
An examination of the piles of circu-
lars lying in the department showed
that in some way the public printing
Office had bound up in the cover pur-
porting to state the contents of the
pamphlet number of the silver

was murdered by some unknown per-
sons. within the city limits, either Mon

This morning, when the Oregon Rail-

a mans body on the ground in the rear
of the cattle corral of Ennis & Co., near
the track in the northern portion of

here. Officers went to the place and
found Romans body lying fiat on his
back. The head was slightly raised
against post. By the left shoulder
was small pistol, and above the center
of the forehead was a wound made by
the fatal bullet. The mans face and
shirt were covered with blood and the
body lay in pool of blood.
The officers removed the body to an

the French ambassador, Count Monte

with the bearing of a gallant French

The Breakfast Table Toilet.

Somtimes even the most fastidious
woman forgets that the keynote of dain-
tiness is struck by the morning tOliet-a
model of all that she should De at other
times, her breakfast apparel gives every
outward evidence of haste and leaves
much to be desired.
The precious five minutes nap in which
one guilty INDUCES after the getting-up
hour has arrived is frequently the begin
ming Of domestic jar and fret, and causes
the first little rift within the lutte.
A woman who has made haSty morn
ing toilet is by no means thing of beau
ty, therefore she who is wise valiantly
foregoes the joy of the forbidden nap:
she rises betimes, supported by the
thought that of such stuff martyrs are
made, and after her matutinal dip, as
she arranges her hat as becomingly as
she would later in the day for lunch
con or a shopping expedition, she finds
herself at peace with all the world even
including the cook!
It's only a little thing in the days do
ings, but it tells. The woman who pre-
sides at the breakfast table, fresh and
rosy, is fulfilling part of her mission in
life-her lord is as much stimulated by
her presence as by the fragrant cup Of
Mocha which she dispenses, and though
seemingly absorbed in his newspaper as
he sips his fayorite beverage, in reality
he sees every detail of the dainty toilet
knowing that it was made for his eyes
alone. and, manlike, approaching it all
the more for that very reason!-Chicag go
