Mr.. Grigsby came on the first train and
informed the governor that be was
ready and willing to prosecute the cases
with the utmost vigor whenever the
governor or anybody else was ready to
swear out utcomplaints, although hecould
not advise it as political measure and
could not guarantee conviction.
Mr.. Grigsby remained here several
days, ready for action but the governor
suddenly disappeared without notice and
was gone week. He then returned,
employed private counsel, commenced
proceedings and requested that the at
torney general be ignored. Those who
are on the inside profess to think that
the governor was anxious to score a
point against Mr.. Grigsby by demand
ing his assistance and getting refusal,
and that when he failed in that ne de-
termined to cast odium on Mr.. Grigsby
by shutting him out of the cases on the
ground that he could not trust him

There is very tender solicitude on
the part of the populists to unite the
silver forces. That is they are anxious
unite when the other fellows don't want
anything. But let them ask for q
crumb and the populists lose no time in
denying them the pittance. This was
aptly demonstrated at the recent dem
ocratic and populist convention. By
the assistance of the democrats last
fall the populist were successful in
electing several officers, whereas with
out it they wouldn't have elected one
Then the democrats asked for q union
on their candidate for judge and even
the two conventions went so far as to
endorse the democrat by a joint con-
ference. The populists wouldn't have
it that it that way and named Mr..
Goodykoontz. If principle was involv-
ed Mr.. Fellows would have been salts
factory, but as an Office was in sight
the matter of principle was cast to the
winds. Perhaps they have come to
realize, that the matter of silver is fast
losing ground and they have to fight
for everything they can get in the fu-
ture.

Evening Dress In a Street Car.

He swung aboard Walnut Hills
night car at Fifth street and was evi-
IDENTIFY angry at having had long wait,
for he complained in audible tones about
tired men having to stand on street cor
ners. When he stepped inside and saw
every seat taken, disappointed look
came over his face, and he grabbed for
a strap with a deep growl Luck was
coming his way, however, for at Eighth
street a man near the door got out, and
the tired man sank into his place with
b sigh Of relief The car then proceeded
to the opposite side of the street and
Ltopped to take on man and woman.
The passengers looked up curiously at
seeing a couple in full dress climb
aboard. A pale blue silk dress, low cut,
and with short sleeves, adorned the
woman, and her escort was got up in
immaculate dress togs. The man was
very gallant and looked about for seat
for the woman, even trying to get some
ladies to sit closer and make room.
When this failed, he approached the
tired man who had got on at Fifth
street and asked him if he would have
any objection to giving up his seat The
other looked up i'll amazement and said
in decided way that he did object.
The man then said:
Il think it is very mean in you to al
low lady to stand in car
Quick as fash the tired man burst
out:
Il think it's mean in you to
make her ride in a street car in that
dress -
Roars Of laughter from the passengers
followed. The couple alighted at the
next street, and the tired man once
more sank into repose. En-
quirer.

That the silver cause is fast waning

by William e. Curtis in the Chicago
Record. Writing of the campaign in
Ohio he says:

"Silver is dead duck" in Ohio this
year because of the improvement in
prices. The money question has GER
tainly lost its interest among the far
mers, who were very generally favor
able to free coinage at the last presi-
dental election. The same may be
said of the miners, although the change
of sentiment is not SO noticeable among
them. 1t is also true among the labor
ing population generally, and until
now the democrats have not been talk
ing OF the l6 to issue as freely as
they did last year. The revival OF
business has robbed them of their best
argument and is of itself a refutiation
Of their theories. Those who have
plenty of employment and good wages
are not SO easily convinced of the nee
essity of change in the monetary sys.

from their hearers. On the contrary
they are interrupted with EN- harrassine 9
inquiries and often with jeers. Las,

attend political meetings wanted &c
hear discussed, and it was the subject
OF heated controversy at every post.
office, every corner grocery and every
market place. Now the revival of in.
dustry and business is the favorite
theme. Instead of estimating the in
creased value of farm products, coal

free coinage of silver, people delight in
telling now much more this man OF

A GAME OF POLITICS.

Pierre Capital: Governor Lees priv
ate secretary is continually sending out
dispatches to the effect that the govern
or has shut Attorney General Grigsby
out of the cases now pending and has
hired private counsel at his own expense
because he has lost confidence in the at
torney generals desire to secure convic-
tion. The idea seems to be to convey
the impression that Mr.. Grigsby is not
willing to do his duty. But those who
know the inside workings of the popu-
list camp are aware of desire on the
part OF the governor to discredit Mr..
Grigsby on all possible occasions with
view to lowering his standing in the
party The governor is as anxious to
sidetrack Mr.. Grigsby as he is to con-
vict the parties under arrest The
whole affair is mainly game of poll
tics. If the governor can convict some
one of crime it is supposed that the
populist party will derive political
advantage, but MIR. Grigsby at the same
time. must be disposed of as candidate
for governor. 1t is q fact not generally
known that the governor served writ

gcientists Declare That Both Are Highly
Beneficial.
1t is not SO very long ago since for
eign scientist discoursed on the benefits
of yawning. This act, which is gener-
ally regarded as partaking of the nature
of tired colsdition, or symptom OF
such condition, of the respiration ana
of the need for fresh air, is said to be
of great service in clearing the eusta-
chan tubes of the ears. These tubes
lead from the back of the mouth to the
inner side of the ear drum, and yawn-
ing is looked upon in this light as a
hygienic exercise which benefits the
structures in question.
Another scientist has no difficulty in
showing that when we laugh we in
crease the play OF tension in our lungs.
One result of this increased tension is
to arrest the blood flow in the lungs
and to induce the taking of deep in
spirations These latter are healthful
things, for many parts of our lungs are
not called into active use i'll ordinary
breathing. The apex, or top of the lung,
is notably part which does not active
ly participate in the movements of
breathing, and as this is the special
seat of consumption attack we may
reasonably hold that the law of disuse
explains the greater liability Of this
portion of the organ to the onset of dis
ease The free and active use~ks part,
strengthening and toning it, as it were,
is an essential condition for health
hence laughter, by bringing into play
the whole of the lungs, or at least by
favoring an increase of lung work, is to
be reckoned an admirable exercise.
Besides this physical effect of laugh
ter we have also to take into account its
mental side. There is certain brain
stimulus to be noted, a psychic result
in addition to the physical effect, and
it is pretty certain the mental phase Of
a good, hearty laugh is in it's way, as
healthful as is it's physical aspect
Singing is also praised as an excellent
lung exercise, and public speaking is as
effective lung tonic as one may wish
for. The only drawback to the work of
the speaker is the foul condition of the
atmosphere in which he has often to do
his work Exchange
