After running for nearly thirty-two
years, the Lake County Patriot pub

appears the announcement of its editor
and publisher, Samuel a. Bradbury,

Mr. Bradbury was seen by Sun
reporter this afternoon, who was ap-
prised of what would appear in this
weeks issue.
Mr.. Bradbury said: 81 az :

Athletics Are Good.

The Milwaukee Sentinel. of Sunday,
in summing up the indoor base ball
teams of the state names the Athletics
of this city as the probable champions
of the state
The Sentinel undoubtedly drew its
conclusions from the fact that the Ke-
nosha team gave the Milwaukee Cen
trails such a terrible drubbing week
ago. The boys are making arrange
ments to defend the title given them
by the Sentinel and Kenosha is sure to
have some more games during the pres
ent season.

Prices viii Be Cheap.

All indications point to big bicycle
trade in 1898. Not the least important
reason for such a prediction is the fact
that prices will. be more attractive than
ever before. Many of the old riders
will gladly buy new mounts next
spring, who otherwise would have been
content with their old ones for another
season. With road wheels and racers
of reliable manufacture retailing at $50
and up-to- date tandems as low as $75,
there need be no more complaints of
exorbitant profits for the makers.

THE WAREsBORO BURGLARY.
A Man on Watch Comes Near Shoot
ing His Nephew.

Waycross, Ca, Nov. 1.-Lawyer James
Thomas came near shooting his brothers
son Saturday night at Waresboro. The
youth, Luke Thomas, was in the gang that
entered DR.. Spence's store at midnight. He
was getting out the window, and as he fell
outside his uncle fired, striking the window
sill. The boy screamed and his uncle
recognized his voice.
Dr.. Spence and Lawyer Thomas staid
in the store that night TO watch for bur-
glars. They heard the window sash raised
at midnight and were surprised to find
four young white men in the store down
stairs. Luke Thomas was one of the in
truders. He and the others were badly
frightened when DR.. Spence and Lawyer
Thomas came down stairs and began fir
ing at them. The boys jumped out the
window and intended to run for their
lives. They were halted and taken in
charge by their captors. The boys were
brought here and Jailed and are still in
prison. One of the boys, Hardly Herring
ton, was shot twice, the balls taking effect
in the calves of his legs. He is not dan
gerously hurt, though the wounds are very
painful,

There is spirit of hard unsentimental
investigation that would see In the dia-
mond tear, trembling on the eye of beauty,
only so much chloride of sodium and other
chemical constituents. 1t seems to take a
special delight in smashing to unrecogniz-
able fragments the dearest traditions of
the past Fendish pleasure is a mild
classification for the emotion that appears
to inspire II when it has succeeded In de-
fnltely RELOCATING to the realms of pure
fiction some particularly cherished story.
Only because these Vandals in the world
of poetry pretend to a seriousness they
must be far from feeling they would have
shouted "Shoot the hat" when they
showed the William Tell business a myth.
Likewise it secretly tlckled them half to
death when Washlngton's cherry tree was
proved to be really a chestnut, and now
one of these iconoclasts is tumbiing all
over himself in gratified excitement be-
cause of the facts of the case show that
Casabianca wasn't blown up, but that me
and his father were drowned in trying to
swim to the boats. At this rate the future
child and youth to be made armor-proof

to be brought up on nothing less safe than
quadratic operations and the dlfferential

PosrMEN TO WEAR STRIPES.
A New System of Designating Time
of Service.

New system OF Designating llme
of Service.
Uncle Sans letter carriers will here
after be designated with service stripes
on their coast sleeves, according to the
length of time they have been in service.
The system is precisely the same as that
which has been in vogue in the Savannah
police department for a number of years.
Carriers who have served five years will
wear half chevrons of black cloth, half
an inch wide, on both sleeves of their
uniform coats. the first stripe being three
quarters of an inch above the braid on
the cuff and sleeves. All the stripes will
be edged with white stitching. Each ad
ditional five years will entitle the wearer
of the grey postmans coat to another
stripe.
A carrier who has served less than five
years will wear only plain sleeves. Sub
stitute carriers, however, will be desig-
mated by letter s of black cloth on both
sleeves. Service as a substitute, how
ever does not count in gaining the stripes
after promotion to a carriers place.
The new designation went into effect
yesterday, and the result was to bring out
that Savannah has probably the most ex-
perienced as well as expert force of car
Out Of the twenty carriers in the employ
of the office eighteen get
the chevron, there being only
two members of the force, who
have served less than five years. OF the
eighteen, two will get four stripes, having
served more than twenty years, three will
get three stripes. six will get two stripes,
and seven one stripe.
The two Oldest carriers in the service are
j. d. Boughes and G. G. Deveaux, each
of whom has served twenty-four years
in the department, and now engaged in
serving his twenty-fifth year. They will
receive fifth stripe each next summer.
Carriers Donegal, Jones and Lafayette
get three stripes each; Cooper, Campbell,
Hewlett, Lord, O'Donovan and Tyson, two
each, and Branham, Burke, Curley, Mi
rault, O'Driscoll, oPollard and Peasants,
one EACH 1t would seem that the mail
carriers have not found Uncle Sans ten
ure of service so insecure only two out
of the twenty being appointees of the pres
ent postmaster
There is not a more expert set of car
riers anywhere" said Assistant Postmas-
ter Waring in speaking of this matter
They handle 10000 pieces of mail a day,
and 1t is rarely that a mistake is made.
They do not average a mistake apiece in
six months. There has not been a regis
tered letter lost by a carrier in the last
ten years. Not one of these carriers has
ever been charged with any act of moral
turpitude or any serious irregularity of
any kind Boughes, who has served TWEEN
ty-two years, has never been suspended.
and Deveaux, who has served the same
length of time, has been suspended only
one day in that time. / doubt If there is

A BARBAROUS SURGICAL
OPERATION

Is not only intensely painful, dangerous
to life and very expensive, but In the light
of modern medical research and since the
discovery of the Pyramid Pile Cure a sur
gical operation Is wholly unnecessary If
you have any doubt on this point kindly
read the following letters from people who
know that our claims regarding the merits
of the Pyramid Pile Cure are borne out by
the facts.
From N. A. Stall. Ridge Road, Niagara
Co., ". Y: / received your Pyramid Pile
Cure and tested it last night 1t did me
more good than anything l have ever
found yet, and remember this was the re-
suit of one nights treatment only.
From Penn W. Arnett, Batesville, Ark. /.
Gentlemen-Your Pyramid Pile Cure has
done me so much good in 50 short a time
that my son-in-law, Capt. I. ]. Klein, of
Fort Smith, Ark, has written me for your
address, as he wishes to try it also.
From A. e. Townsend, Benville, Ind:
have been so much benefited by the Py-
ramid Pile Cure that enclose 81 for which
please send a package, which | wish to
give to a friend Of mine who suffers very
much from piles.
From John II. Wright Clinton, Dewitt
Co, Ills: 1 am so well pleased with the
Pyramid Pile Cure that j think II but
right TO drop you a few lines to inform
you its effects have been all that could
ask or WISH.
From p. A. Bruton, Llano, Tex: Cen
tlemen-The Pyramid Pile Cure has done
so much good for me that l Will say for
the benefit Of others that after using only
two days l am better than L have been
for months
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
The Pyramid Drug Co. OF Albion, Mich,
and II Is truly wonderful remedy for all
forms Of piles. SO great has been the num-
Der of testimonial letters received by them
from all parts OF the country that they
have decided to publish each week a num-
Der Of such letters and never use the same
letter twice, but only fresh letters will be
published.
All druggists recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure, as they know from what their
customers say that no remedy gives such
general satisfaction.

An thousand VIII notice the extra finger.
Then the drummer places the palms of his
hands together with the hand bearing the
false finger farthesr away from the crowd
The hands, held together, are passed up
and down In the air and at the same time
Ihe false finger is removed and the silk
taken out. The finger is deXterously con-
cealed and the silk drawn slowly out be-
fore the astonished spectators.
The professor says that one of the great
coming tricks for drummers is the button
pulling trick" II has been performed but
little and few have even heard OF 1t. The
drummer goes up to man, appears to jerk
button loose from his coat and the next
instant, with ore slap, he replaces It the
same as 1t was before. The trick is very
simple, as nearly all good tricks are.
me drummer carries in his pocket a
great many small pieces of cloth on which
buttons have been sewed. He has about
as many kinds of goods and buttons as
are worn by men in general. He selects
victim who has a coat made of material
exactly like a piece he has in his pocket
or so nearly like it that no difference
could be told at a glance. The drummer
also takes care that the buttons on the
coat and on his patch very nearly match
Then he sails up to his man and slaps the
small piece of goods over q button on the
coat so that the button on the piece is in
thS StAho pace, ne BTdSpS II IN Sucn a
way that his hand covers the edges of his
patch and the button protrudes through
the. circle made by his thumb and fore
finger. Pressing hard against the breast
of his victim he seizes the button with the
other hand and gives 1t yank that pulls
it off The victim thinks the drummer
has pulled a button off his coat and he be-
comes angry. Then the drummer slaps
back the button and skillfully takes 1t
away with the patch of goods and the vic
tim looks down astonished to see his but
ton back again.
II have had scores and scores of stu
dents among the drummers," said Mr.
Roterberger. '"rhey pick up tricks very
quickly. Sometimes l can teach one three
yor four things in an hour. 1 guess It must
help them in their business for they keep
coming at a great rate"
