s.Vincent's NOncOn for MIST"

1t is genuine pleasure to us to inform our
readers that the American Nonconformist, at
indianapolis, Ind, is again owned and edited
bv one of the "Vincent boys that made it
such power for good in the campaigns of 1883
to 1903. In the latter year, in the panic, the
paper was bought by Mr.. Templeton, at one
time Populist candidate for governor of In
diana, and is now repurchased by Prof. c. Vim
cent. 1t has the old snap and vim that made
it so popular in every state in the union, and
in addition to being one of the very best papers
any Populist can have, either for home use or
for propaganda work, it has added most COM
nlete and we'll edited News and Family De-
partment, and it gives the latest and most conf
plete market reports by telegraph up to the
hour of going to press. These departments
will give it decided advantage in the race for
subscribers in every part of the country. We
most heartily recommend the New Noncon as
thoroughly up-to-date, vigorous, true-blue Pop
Mist national newspaper that hews to the line
Of the St. Louis platform and treats courteous
" those who may differ in opinion as to methods
to be employed. Its "People's Forum" and
stExchange' columns are alone worth twice
the cost Of the paper.
We want to double our subscription list and
we will make the specially favorable rate of
II .7s for both the Nonconformist and the AGI-
TATOR one year.

Mild Climate, Fertile Soil, Cheap
Lands.

The building of the Kansas City,
Pittsburg & Gulf Railroan--Port
Arthur route--has opened up a
country in western Missouri and
Arkansas that cannot be excelled as
an agricultural and fruit.growing
country. No other country in
America presents SO many "golden
opportunities" to the home.seeker,
manufacturer, or Spectator. 1t is
a land of sunshine and plenty,
where you can work out of doors IL
months in the year instead of g
months. No hot winds in summer,
no billiards. in winter. Lands are
cheap along this new line of road
because this country has heretofore
been remote from railroad. Climate
mild, pleasant and healthy.
You should also see the new d.
vision town of Mena, Polk Co.,
Ark. 1t is a good illustration of
what pluck and enterprise con do
build city of $500 people in 80
days. Mcna is surrounded by a
tributary country capable of sus'
tanning a city of 100000 people.
Homeseeker's tickets--one fare
for the round trip plus 81 Ocean

and eastern railroad points on Novs

{ AM PURDY'S HUSKIN' BEE.

Late years most all huskin' is done in the held
Or by huskn' machines, when markets and yleld
Will warrant expense. 1t amt often that we
Are asked to a regular old sort huskin' bee
And a tickelder man don't think could be found
Than was last week when Sam Purdy come round
And invited me down; for he'd made up his mind
That he'd have a bee of the old-fashioned kind
On next Wednesday night. OF course we all went
Old.fashionder evening never have spent.
The corn was all picked and piled on the barn floor
From the eanto on back to the big roln' door,
And seat had been fixed out of beehives and planks
At the edge of the pile, while beyond the big bank
Of corn had been rugged out Of boards large bin
That after we ID stripped EN- the were thrown in
Some forks handle first had been thrust in the hay
That walled up the barn at the side of the bay,
And the pumpkins that stuck on the forktines so
bright
Each held up a candle to furnish us light
It was eight wien the seat was we'll loaded with men,
But thew kept droppn' in till between nine and ten,
So the husks piled behind US, and, o what a din
The naked ears made as they fell in the bin
While we talked as we worked, of the weather and
crops,
Of the price of potatoes and apples and hops;
OF politics, too; of free silver and gold;
And Sam passed some "hardware" to keep out the
cold
Which practice, at BEES some condemn not right;
But most took little, and no one got tight
fn;o had nd arnd q viii
The number of bushels of ears in the pile
give hundred and ffty!" "six hundred" said some.
It wasn't decided when Purdy said "Come
The women are watin to give us bite"
Then we all follered him to the house. where light
Was placed in the woodshed, near by to a tub
of lukewarm soft water. wash and a rub
On a towel, and we marched with the willingest feet
To the long kitchen table, where all found seat,
And made like an army, valiant attack
Upon the good victuals piled up like a stack.
There we're apple pie, pumpkin pie, cookies and cake,
Cream cheese and corn bread of Mis- Purdys rare
make,
Baked beans, mashed potatoes and juicy boiled ham,
Hot biscuit and coffee and raspberry jam.
Did we make out meal? Well, we did, as we
ought,
Then adjourned to the woodshed, where Sam come
and brought
New pipes and tobacker for such as would smoke
There, many story and many joke
Were told ere we bid EVERYBODY goodnight.
And started away from the circle of light
Toward our homes. III allow it's not much of a

Judge Cherry yesterday delivered his
decision in the case of Melvina Beau
champ VS.. the Salt Lake Dramatic as
ISOLATION. in which the plaintiff sued
to recover $500 damages because the
defendant refused her admission TO the
theatre as a spectator at an entertain
ment given March IS. 1898.
The plaintiff relied solely for her
gress known as the civil rights act,
passed March l, 1875.
The opinion says that in the case it
is admitted that the plaintiff is white
woman. a citizen of the United States
and that she was a prostitute at the
time mentioned. that she had a ticket
to the entertainment purchased of de-
PENDANT by some person other than the
plaintiff and that the sole reason she
was refused admission was on account
of her disreputable character.
The spirit and letter of the law was to
prevent the abridgement of the civil
rights Of any person on account of race
or color, regardless of previous condi-
ton of servitude, in short to protect
the negro.
The court held that this law could
not be made applicable to a white
woman. She was not denied adms-
sion on account of her race or color.
but on account of her disreDutable vo-
cation and the defendant on that ac-
count had a right to exclude her His
honor therefore found the issues for
the defendant.
