Mark Twain in His Old Manner

and illustrated by A. B. Frost and
Peter Newell, is promise that maya.
zine readers do not have held out to

Der number of McClure's Magazine
that this rare feast of humor is to be
served. One might expect much more
than ordinary entertainment from anv
one of the three items of pictures by
Frost, pictures by Fewell, and an "In.
nocents Abroad" article by Mark
Twain; but the editors of McClure's, in
their profusion, engage to serve all
three at once. The Mark Twain arti-
Gle will consist of chapters from the
forthcoming book on his recent Jour.
ney around the world, and is the only
part that will be published in advance
of the book itself. 1t follows, those
who have read il say, the arlier Mark
Twain manner, which is undoubtedly
the most popular; on thread of pleas
ant travel are strung no end of wise
and witty reflections, quaint and quiz.

A Fresh Financial Idea.

Say, boys, s'posen you change the
deck. That free silver pack seems to be
about played out. Why not Try wheat
issue. If we can raise the value of lG
ounces of silver to that of about 40
ounces of silver, without the aid or
consent of any other nation on earth
why can't we raise the price of wheat
10 two dollars bushel without the aid
or consent of any other nation an earth,
without consulting the foreign market
quotations, and without bothering
about silver. And if we can thus raise
the price OF wheat, why not of corn and
potatoes, and eggs, and everything else
we want raised. All we have to do is TO
set in our stack and make the raise.
What have we to do with abroad -

Five Corpses Stolen From the Morgue at
Dunning, Near Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct 25.-Five dead bodies
four men and one woman-were stolen
Sunday night from the morgue at Dun
ming. The corpses were removed by
men who forced open the doors of the
morgue.
The bodies were those of paupers at
the county asylum. The robbery, from
all indications, had been carefully
planned and done in most deliberate
way. The Yale lock on the door had
been broken and the windows covered
with strawboard to conceal those
who were working inside. Superin-
tendent Lang is confident that
some or all of those concerned in the
affair, were familiar with their sur
roundings. The bodies were I'M

the time, only those were taken in
which consumption had been the caus e

silver Drives Out Mexico,s Gold.

Mexico is supposed to be bimetallic
country. Silver and gold are coined at
the mint and are both legal tender. But
silver has driven gold completely out Of
circulation, and in practice Mexico is
really monometallic nation. The gold
coins are at premium in silver when
they circulate at all. The American
gold which travellers bring in also COM
mands apremium at the money brokers'.
All this confirms in actual practice
the assertion that the free coinage of
silver in the United States would drive
gold out of circulation and thus entail
on our country the loss, Inconvenience
and commercial degradation which the
silver standard implies.

AMBUSHED
And Shot In The Back By An
Assassin.
ArChimedeS Calvert previously Wounded
BY A Rifle Ball.
waylaid by Coward While Dipping
Water From Run and Shot
Through the Shouldcr.-A
Crime That Should be
vigorously Hunt
ed Down.

Mr. Archimedes Calvert, the well
known truck farmer, who lives about
three miles west of Marietta on Mile
Run, lies at his home with a heavy
rifle ball in his chest rs the result of
one the most dastardy attempts at
murder ever committed in Washington
county.
About four o'clock Monday after
noon Mr.. Calvert took his team and a
sled and went about half a mile up the
run to secure barrel of water. While
STOPPING oyer the pool dipping water
he heard the crack of rife behind
him and at the same instant felt the
shock of bullet in his back.
Mr.. Calvert fell to the ground but
managed to roll onto the sled close by
and calling to the horses he started
them towards home. Being uncon-
trolled they broke into a run and
soon stopped at Mr.. Calvert's door.
The injured man was carried into the
house by his wife and daughter. Doc
tors Romayne and Sam Hart of this
city, were hastily summoned. Upon
examination they found Mr.. Calvert to
be suffering from a horrible wound.
The leaden missile had struck him in
the right shoulder blade, crashing
through the bone, piercing the right
lung and lodging in the chest. Mr..
Calvert did not entirely lose conscious
ness, but breathed with difficulty and
spit up blood at intervals. The bullet
was not probed for on account of the
objection of Mrs. Calvert, who feared
that he might succumb to the shock
The person who fred the shot evil
dently did so with murderous intent.
1t is believed that he lay in clump of
bushes about fifty yards from Mr.. Cal
vert and took deadly aim at the stoop-
ing man. His identity is uncertain,
but the authorities believe they will
be able to locate him without delay.
He was not seen by the wounded man,
but the latter thinks he knows his
woud-be assassin and it is sincerely to
be hoped that he will be brought |
promptly to justice. The crime was
one of the most cowardly eyer commit |
ted in this county and may result in a
first degree murder case.
Most of our readers will remember
Mr.. Calvert's recent troubles with his
enemies and their attempt to have him
committed to the Athens Insane Asy-
lum. Quarrels between him and his
enemies have been frequent and it is
no doubt due to this i'll feeling that
the attempt on his life was made.
At late hour Monday night the
injured man was still living, but with
the chances of recovery against him.
The surgeons state that his wound is
exceedingly dangerous, but its exact
extent cannot be told until the bullet
is located.
