Those not registering within 80 days,
Captain General Weyler says, will lose

Many Indiana Democrats are Very
Sore.

Indianapolis, July 15.-The act of the
Democratic convention in refusing to
indorse the president caused much re-
sentiment among the Democrats.
In Mayors store there are q Demo-
Gratis who will vote for Mckinley, ali

eePOOH" SAYS CHARoWHAs.
Does Not Believe IN Sixteen to One or
Anything of the Sort
outs Charowhas is a gold bug.


Louis Charowhas is a gold bug.
He has given out a semi-official in
terview that settles the question and
he may now be run for congress to beat
Charley Curtis without fear that he
will betray his constituency.
A Journal reporter took an armfuI OF
blank paper and a half dozen pencils
with him last evening and called on
Louis to get his views on the monetary
situation.
Mr.. Charowhas,' said the reporter,
would you mind telling me for the
readers of the Journal, what your
views are on silver and gold?"
Mr.. Charowhas was standing in the
doorway with his hands clasped behind
him looking at the fly specks on some
oranges.
Mr.. Charowhas was very cautious
about answering, and pondered for sew
eraI minutes before committing him
self.
This gave the reporter time to spread
out his paper.
Mr.. Charowhas spoke concisely and
Me know noting he said and turn
ed his attention to the parrot
"Cholly, Cholly, Cholly," he SAID >
and the parrot ''cholIied' back.
This lasted several moments and
gave the reporter time to start the in
terview verbatim
What then asked the reporter, do
you prefer, Mr.. Charowhas, silver or
gold?'
Me lika gold best said Mr.: Char
owhas. "ChoIly, ChOlly, Cholly."
At this there was loud and prolonged
applause from the parrot.
You do not believe then, in the free
coinage of silver at 16 to -"
What I do said Mr.. CharOwhas,
facing about, what I do with doIla
sixteen TINA bigger dis one, huh?'' Mr..
Charowhas held a silver dollar in his
hand, use him for platter"
1T is not your firm conviction then,
that the reconciliation of silver should
ensue Immediately after the next ses-
sion of congress, and that it should be
maintained on a satisfactory and juGic-
ious parity with the yellow metal?'
Mr. Charowhas looked at the repOr-
ter for several minutes before express
ing himself.
''Disa no firm" he said, ct run him
myself, and me had no conviction for
long time now. Me got no pear Got
good oranges and banana"
Further than this Mr.. Charowhas de-
cIined to state whether or not he would
support the ticket.

THEY SAWED THE GAS" "
How a Women's Society Managed to
 Economic.

The women, heaven bless 'em, ever are on the alert to show the men that they are as well adapted as is mas culinity to bear the burden of govern ment and to that end are beginning to join societies, which though fra ternal in nature, are often devoted mainly to discussions of women's rights.
 It was one of these Phoenician so- cieties that made an appeal to the man. ager of the local gas company for a low rating on the meter of the hall in which they held their sessions. "We will only use a few of the gas jets,' D said the spokeswoman. It matters not how the dispute wasdecided or whether the! naughty gas man did as he was desired, but the next day after the first meeting a committee of indig- nant ladies waited on him with empha- sized information that his horrid old gas leaked so that it was impossible to hold other than the shortest of ses- sions the night before.
 That's odd,"' observed Jensen. sIt never did so before" and so up to the hall he sent his plumber. Every con- nection and joint was tested and no leaky place was found, but the trou- 'ble was soon located. The ladies bless their business-like souls, had, as they had said they would, lighted only few of the jets, leaving all the others full on, as they were ever left being controlled usually from the meter turncock. And so, of course all through the meeting a dozen or more jets under pressure poured un- consumed gas into the hall.

Chief Engineer Drake of the s.

Rain has been general all through the country north of Prescott.

It was supposed to be as fine as Hun vadi water. 1t tasted like Hunyadi water. We took some of it away and an analysis showed it to be of the same properties as Hnnya dfwater, and we were about to close the trade when the chemist began making inquiries, the result being that he assured us such spring in such a place was i'm possible. We took him with us, and an investigation showed that the spring consisted of a buried barrel of genuine Hunyadi water, a pipe from the bottom of the Spring carrying the water into another barrel so it would not be lost, and force pump, hidden in a cave conveniently located for the purpose. It was shrewdly arranged, and had not the chemist been a ge- ologist, too, we would have paid a good price for the spring. Several have already been sold by similar methods"
