A good many Of the stories that

vicar Of Moulton, Lincolnshire, that.
having a quarrel with parishicner

How Tie Got Even.

You find practical jokes and q
good deal of humor in some Of the
testamentary beauests about Lon
don. A bachelor who lived in tho
early part or this century was con-
tinually annoyed for years by tho
attentions and toadyism Of six rela-
tives, nephews and nieces, who were
engaged in a jealous rivalry for his
money lie must have often chuc-
killed. over the way he got even with
them after his death, for he left six
wills, which were identical. They
all bore the same date, even to the
hour ard minute Of signature, and
the same witnesses, and did not
vary in word or punctuation mark,
except IN the name Of the legatee.
By each of these wills he bequeathea
his entire estate to each one Of his
six heirs and then died and left them
to fight it out.-Chicago Record.

at the opera house this evening

an expert in these mysteries.
The Browns S Valley Tribune
says OF him:
Prof. Pull, the hypnotist and
mind reader, gave exhibitions
in Brown S Valley on Monday
and Tuesday nights. The at
tendance was not large, but all
who We're present were fully
satisfied that the professor was
all that he claimed to be. He
gave satisfactory tests IN mind
reading and hypnotism. From
a scientific point Of view the
entertainment given by Prof
Pull is well worth four times thf

element with which il aus fused

L. Loucks the populist leader
has also come outstronglya against
fusion, which he declares is de
stroying the populist party by
compelling it to surrender it's
principles for the personal ag-
grandisement of some late arriy-

it is that both Of the principal e!-

The settlers association Of the

received a letter from Hon. Rob
ert J. Gam bic, i'll which he says
he will visit Washington during
the winter, and while there will
do ell in his power to further the
the chances of the free home
stead bill Mr.. Gamble very
ably handled the matter in the
last congress, and his fl amiiiarity
with it and his acquaintance with
all the prominent ngfessmen
will ena5lc him to do some very
effective work for the settlers.
With Mr.. Gamble and Land Com
missioner Iocl1hart ia Washing
ton, and both Of these gentlemen
pleading the cause Of the settlers
and il their actual interest, the
free homestead bill should GER
tainly secure the consideration
which it deserves. Certainly
any settler who should throw his
money away on a paid lobbyist
when such influential men as
these take up the cause without
pay does not deserve much sym
pathy.
