1t is the oil in whisky that causes
men to drink it,
Americans are the most risky peo-
pie on earth, because they eat the
most hog meat
When Christ fed the multitude he
gave them fish and bread. When the
Lord fed the children of Israel in the
desert he gave them oil cakes and
quail on toast; and when He went to
punish King Northumberland he turn
ed him out to eat green things, like
sheep or a billy goat.
The eagle that scars, the lion that
roars, the hooking bird that sings,
live on meat. Patti eats half pound
of Frankfurter dab sausage at break
fast; Grant ate bacon and fried his
bareback in the grease when he had a
big fight on,
Shakespeare ate mutton chops and
drank Scotch whisky. Byron wrote
best on ham and Holland gin, while
Mckinley and Tom Reed eat meat or
fish three times a day. Ingalls, would
have gone back to the Senate had he
not lived on oat meal, baked apples
and blind robbins.

EAT GREASE.
A Kansas plan to Promote Health and
Danish the Undertaken.

BdnISu the OUNCi tuNOl'
Meat and grease are the things to
eat. Nobody amounts to anything
who lives on fruits and vegetables.
There is not enough energy in a
wagon load Of fruit or vegetables to
give one an idea above gooseberry.
People who live on fruit and garden
truck get but little out of life, says
the Emporia Republican, and they
always look clamfshy and watery in
coffin.
Life is too short for one to tax his
stomach with the work of extracting
what little grease there is in vege-
table diet. Feed the truck to the hogs
and eat the hogs Hogs and cattle
have nothing else to do but convert
corn, grass and other farm products
into grease.
Take a car load Of green truck,
squeeze the water out Of it and you
have nothing left but mess OF hDrous
stuff that would kill dog
Fruit is not fit to eat anyway until
it begins to decay, or get ripe, as they
call it.
Eat meat that is fat if you want to
enjoy life.
If the baby is puny and scrawny,
and has pains or aches, give 1t fat
meat. Hog meat, if you please. If
you are going to the North Pole, take
grease and tea along. If you are
going to live under the equator,
ahiure fruits and vegetables.as you
would a diet of acknowledged
worms.
The fatter the meat the less oft you
have to eat and the less load you have
to carry.
Milk is not fit to drink when the
grease is SKINNED from it.
Fish are good because they are full
of oil.
No man who lives on meat was ever
known to lick his wife or ask for di
vorce. Adam got into row right off
because he had not hog meat, butter
or black bass. Napoleon lost Water
loo because the allied forces had
bacon for break fast the morning of
the fight The French had vegetable
sour. The South had to give in at
Appomattox because they we're out OF
meat. No war can be successfully
waged without hog meat If the
Mikado OF Japan wants his people to
grow bigger, all he has to do is to
feed them grease. and lots of it.
Steamboats,, railways or bicycles
cannot be run without grease, moth
ing goes without grease.
Doctors tell us to eat fruit and keep
quiet during the dog days. Our no
ton is to eat beef, mutton, poultry,
fish and hog meat, and get around
lively. If you follow the doctor you
will be dead before cold weather. If
you eat meat, spread the butter on
thick, and drink cream you will live
to plant the doctors.

They have right to get into his busi-
ness office and do business with him.
The employees today did their best to
help people get to him, There is no
formality in his greetings. He receives
men just as he received callers when
he was a member of. congress. Wher-
ever his memory serves him well, he
calls men by their names and he today
shook hands with George" with
jake" with Billy" and other old
friends, in a most gratifying manner.
Was he busy? Well, 1 should say so.
There were senators and representa-
tives galore, with candidates for office
to be introduced. He received them all.
But what will the president do with
the officeseekers? This is the question.
and it can be easily answered. He
will simply let them take their turns.
They can see him now, and they can
see him at any time. But he is not
going to make any appointments for
some time to come. They may as Well
go home, and quit bothering him. He
told them all. today to file their papers
in the various executive departments.
In due time he will consider them.
But not now. He has many grave
and important national and interna-
tional affairs to engross his attention.
From those matters he will not turn
aside. In brief, it may be said thar
the Officeseekers are spending their
time and money In Washington about
six months too early, and the sooner
they go home the betterfor all of them.

WANT BONDS EXTENDED.
Court Asked to Pass Upon the B. &
o. s. Debt.

CINCINNATI, O., March 21. - The
Farmers Loan and Trust company, of
New York has sued the Baltimore &
Ohio Southern Railway company, the
Baltimore & Ohio company and other
holders of the consolidated mortgage
bonds Of the Baltimore & Ohio South
western company. The trust company
as trustee of the property conveyed to
it by the Baltimore & Ohio South
western company at the time of its
consolidation under that name with
the Ohio & Mississippi railway has
certified bonds amounting to $4,000,
OOO issued to take up outstanding bonds
Of the Ohio & Mississippi Railway COM
pany, which were a first lien on the
property of that company.
The Baltimore & Ohio Railway COM
pany guaranteed that these bonds
would be taken up by the consOlida-
ton, but the Baltimore & Ohio COM
pany went into the hands of a re-
ceiver in February, 1896, and was un-
that the bonds of the consolidation
company, by that reason and because
of the hard times, have largely de-
clined in market value. The Baltimore
& Ohio Southwestern company, the
mOrtgagor, has notified the trust COM
pany that it will not be able to pay
the Ohio & Mississippi bonds on ma
turity, as it contemplated, even by the
sale of the consolidation bonds. 1t
proposes an extension of the bonds for
fifty years at per cent and the plain
tiff asks the advice of the court in the
interests of the holders of the bonds,
payment of which will default unless
such an extension is obtained.

PINGREE is CALLED OFF.
He VIII Not Attempt to Be Re-eIect-
ed Mayor of Detroit.

DETROIT, Mich, March q - Gov.
Pingree will not resign the governor
ship and will not be a candidate for
mayor of Detroit at the special cleo
ton April 5. This negative programme
was decided upon at a meeting of the
governor and several of his advisers,
which lasted nearly the whole of last
night.
The ''old man." as his excellency is
familiarly called by his followers want
ed to Vindicate himself as against the
supreme court decision in Ousting him
by permitting the Republicans to NOM
mate him for mayor, believing he
would be triumphantly reelected. Most
Of his advisers at the meeting, how
ever, especially those from other parts
Of the state, insisted that it was his
first duty to remain governor to the
end of the term, and not to permit
Lieut.. Gov. DunStan to succeed him.
After hours of discussion the CHIEF
gradually came around to this view.
The meeting finally decided to recon-
mend that the city convention nominate
Capt Albert E. Stewart. a Detroit
vessel owner and member of the legis-
lature, to succeed Pingree as mayor.
The Republican convention had au-
jOurned until tomorrow to await Pin
gree's wishes, and the Democratic city
convention Saturday adjourned until
Tuesday in order to learn what the
Republicans are doing.

AFTER THE GUILTY ONE NOW.
Friends of jackson and WnIling
VIII Prosecute Wood.

CINCINNATI, O., March 21.-There
is to be another chapter in the murder
of Pearl Bryan Since the execution
Of Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling
the friends of these men have deter
mined to prosecute William Wood,
cousin of Pearl Bryan, who was
charged by Jackson with her trouble
and getting Jackson and Walling TO
help him. Among the effects Of the
dead men are letters from Wood. These
letters have been turned over to Postal
Inspector Salmon, who will present
them to the district attorney at In
dianapolis for use before the federal
grand jury for the purpose of indictins
and trying Wood for improper use OF
the mails. The Bryan family are also
wanting Wood prosecuted.
The ashes of Scott Jackson were tax
en- from the Cincinnati crematOry to-
ashes with her to Green Castle, Ind,
today. AS Pearl Bryan is buried in the
Green Castle cemetery, the people Of
that place had refused burial for jack
sons body, and his mother was unable
to take it to their old home in
Maine. The remains of Walling were
placed in a vault last night at Hamil-
ton, and may be brought back here for
cremation, but it is thought that he
will be buried in the family lot at
Mount Carmel, Ind, where his father
and other members of the family are
buried.
Large crowds visited the Newport
jail today, but there were no incidents
other than those of curiosity seekers.

interests. and am sure to get there"
But, after all, they are whispering the
word of promise to his ear, and will
break it on his heart. The broken
promises now made in Washington will
break many hearts.
There is a man here from Maine with
splendid Endorsements. He was a good
soldier He has always been a good
Republican. He has always published
a Republican newspaper. But, one year
ago, he raised the name of William
Mckinley in his newspaper, in Tom
Reeds own state. And now, he is here
believing that Mckinley will give him
an appointment to a prominent posi-
ton. Poor fool! Nobody knows better
than Mckinley that the man was re-
calcitrant to every duty, when he de-
serted Tom Reed. He cannot get the
Endorsement of the Maine delegation.
Hence, he cannot get an appointment.
Strange, isn't it, that educated men
OF superior intelligence, should know
so little of public affairs. No man can
get an office of prominence and opu
lence, without the backing of his COM
mOnwealth. 1t would have been bet
ter for that Maine man, if ne had
kept the name of Tom Reed at the
head of his editorial column, and gone
down in defeat with Reed. He would
have had the greater respect of Nc
kinley, for his loyalty to his friend.
AT all of the executive departments
the scene today was mnemonic of for
mer scenes. At the department Of
state the venerable Secretary Sherman
was early at his desk. and, the Office
seekers were there before him. FOrtu-
nately for Sherman, he was called to
the White house at 10 O'Clock, and was
relieved of the pressure of calling as
pirants for foreign positions. His pri-
Vate secretary was left in charge. He
is old in public official life, and hand
LED the crowds like a veteran.
At the postoffice department, and at
the interior department the crowds
were incessant and insistent Every
caller was received with kindness, and
hopeful indications of future prefer
ment-
Senators and representatives accomp-
anied their aspiring constituents, and
Postmaster General Gary spoke with
suave regard to every man who wants
a postoffice, and Secretary Bliss spoke
to the men who want land offices and
Indian agencies, with equal urbanity.
The poor fools went away in each in,
stance, apparently satisfied with their
prospects.
At the treasury department. Secre-
tary Gage went through with the ardu-
Gus and fatiguing duty of receiving
the multitude of place seekers, ane
gave each anxious caller to

BRADLEY WILL RESIGN.
A Piece of Gossip That Is Meant to
Help His Senatorial Chances

CINCINNATI, O., March 21-The
EnQuirer's special from Frankfort, KY,
says: Gov. Bradley told two friends
in his office day before yesterday that
no matter What was the result of the
present senatorial fight, he would re-
sign the office of governor Immediately
after the expiration of the present
extra session. He tonight declined 10
discuss the matter, but told another
friend the same thing in his Office this
afternoon. That such is his intention
has been known to the Associated Press
representative for several weeks. but
that he did not want 10 authorize the
statement as yet is emphasized by his
evident annoyance that what he con-
fided to friends has become public
However, the few politicians who have
heard the story say the governors IN
tention having become public now may
result in making more probable his
election over Hunter on Tuesday or
Wednesday. They argue that the chief
reason why some gold Democrats re-
fuse to go into coalition to elect Brad
ley is that it would fence the guberna-
torial election this fall, which they
have their own reasons for not wanting
done.
Prominent politicians from all over
the state are arriving here tonight to
take part in the fight for and against
Hunter, the nominee, and Bradley, who
refuses to be deposed by even the in
fiuence of the national administration.
