Rebuked Harrison.

We were waiting for the beds to be
made up in the Santa Fe sleeper and
passed the time swapping yarns.
Il met recently" said the Secretary
of Columbus Ohio corporation, IAN
old professor of Miami University,
where eX-President Harrison grad
uated. He said that when Harrison
was q senior in college an elderly man,
whose name l have forgotten, came
there to make speech in favor Of
the abolition of slavery. It was, Of
course. the average abolition speech of
those days about slavery-its wrongs,
it's injustice and the final results Of it's
continuance. In those days of course
very few of the colleges or college
the abolitionists. The most progress
sive of them seldom went beyond the
Henry Clay or Daniel Webster ground
Of compromise. Harrison had already
a reputation as a college orator and
was called on to reply. He was I'M
prepared at a moments notice to pre-
sent very formal argument, and in
order to gain time to collect his
thoughts he began with glittering gen
eralities. The gentleman he said, is
conversant with his subject. He Is
an older man than am. He is a more
experienced man. He is taller. He
has more whiskers. He has longer
hair
"'And better manners interrupted
the stranger in a mild remonstrant
voice from the front seat he had taken
to hear the young orator. The youth
stopped, blushed, could not recover his
speech, and sat down without finish
ing."-Chicago Times-Herald.

High Officers Taken.

Eduardo Velasquez, chief of police of
City of Mexico; Lieut.. Cabreta, assistant
chief of detectives; and Commandant
Mauro Sanchez were arrested and taken
to prison and placed in solitary con6ne-
ment by order of the fifth criminal Judge,
to whom had also been turned over TWEEN
ty-one prisoners arrested for entering the
municipal building on the night of the re-
cent lynching of the man who attacked
President Diaz.
If the police authorities are proved
criminally negligent in guarding the pris-
oners they will undoubtedly be severely
punished, and whoever took part in kill
ing the prisoner will be held for MUIR
der, even if they were merely passively
acting as Investigators of the crime.

the disease. The best physicians were
called, put they could do nothing for the
young lady, and she got so bad and the
spasms became so fierce at times that ne -
often required three or four persons to
hold her. The contortions Of her face at
such times were fearful to behold. WhiIe
Miss Barber was thus suffering, with No
seeming prospect of relief. the distra ctad
father and mother heard of Dr.. WiIliamss
Pink Fills, and as a last resort thew deter

After taking less than one box of the
pills the spasms ceased and the twitching
Of the face became less and less y;oiants
Before four boxes had been used all signs
of st. Nitus' dance had gone, her health
was restored, and to-day she is one Of fhe

In shaking the dust of a clerical career
from his feet Mr.. Vrooman takes the op-

shattered in a tragic manner.
A dozen officers and scores of the rank

aim of the Afridis, Orakzais, Mahmonds
and ether wild jewellers of the frontier.
Many posts have been captured and de-
stroyed, and the fearful work is still

Crawfash Gives Away a Milkman.

Crawf1sh Gives Away q MiIkman.
81 have dead sure case against my
milkman," said prominent railroad
official day or two ago. HE waters
his milk and have, or rather my wife
has, caught him dead to rights. The
other day when we got our usual guam
tity of milk my wife was going to pour
some from the can into glass. She
heard something hit the glass with a
kind of dull thud and could see some
thing dark in the bottom of the glass.
Pouring it carefully out into another
vessel, what do you suppose she found ?
A live crawfsh, by Jove. A big, lusty
fellow, who seemed just as happy and
contented as though he were working
on an embryo crevasse in levee. Now,
do you mean to tell me that my milk
man did not pour water into the milk?
He put great deal in it, too. The fact
probably is that he dipped big bucket
of water up and put it in the milk. His
crawfshship got in the can that way"

GOV. MOUNT IN DEAD EARNEST.
Saws He Will Insist on the Indictment
of the OsgoOd Lynchers.

Gov. Mount announces that if the pres
ent Ripley County grand jury fails to in
dict the men who participated in the Yer
sailles lynching, he will send Attorney
General Ketcham to the county to con
duct an inquiry before a new jury. There
will be no relaxation of effort, he says,
until the lynchers have been punished.
The Governor says he still has confidence
in the present jury, but he wishes it I'M
derstood that he is deeply in earnest in
this effort to have the lynchers punished.
A dispatch from Osgood says several
persons have suddenly disappeared from
that place, and the impression prevails
that all the ringleaders in the lynching
will leave the State as soon as they find
that the grand jury is close after Them.

commissioners ACCEPT.
Several Plans Offered for Solution of
Financial Problem.

All of the appointees Of the sound
money commission have signi6ed their ac-
ceptarce. Several plans have -lready
been prepared for submission to the COM
mission. One of these looks to the retire
ment of the greenbacks, as suggested in
Secretary Carlisle's last report, while an
other is in effect to retire all bank notes
under S., substituting instead silver. Still
another proposition looks to a gradual ex-
tinguishment Of the national debt, which
necessarily will modify the present bank
ing system, and that the government au-
thorze the organization Of national
banks, the same to deposit a sum equal to
their capital stock in gold or silver.
Chairman Hanna is anxious that sug-
gestions be made to the commission, prom
ising to each careful consideration, as in
the preparation of the proposed new
financial system every means should be
employed to create something which will
commend itself to public confidence.

The recent shooting of the negro post
master at Hogansville, Ga, threatens to

England Irritated by the Bad Nam

Popular irritation increases in England
over the conduct of the campaign against
the tribesmen in India. There is a cry
for such another man as Lord Roberts Of
Kandahar to crush the growing revolt.
In government circles there prevails a
feeling of gratitude that parliament is
not in session. They know that erlbarass-
