HOnpareIl Too Delicate.

During the early days of. the Nine. teenth Legislature" remarked man from Tucson who was attending court here this week, "the Council had under consideration H. B. No, I9. c. D. Reppy's newspaper bill. The bill had been passed by the House and was up for debate in the Council.
 Fred Hughes had the floor and in the course of the argument he sent an amendment to the Presidents desk providing that the delinquent tax list should be set in nohpareil type and thereby make saving to the county in the cost O; publishing the same.
 "John Dunbar, of the Gazette, was in the committee room at the time and some member of that learned body had him called in to give expert testimony.
 "Dunbar was asked what was the smallest type that could be used in printing the delinquent tax list. 'Well' replied John, my opinion is that small pica or long primer is the smallest type that could be used.' You see, gentlemen, nonpareil is s very delicate type and could hardly stand the strain of four publications without the face breaking off You can see, gentlemen, what great ex- pens this would be to the newspapers throughout the Territory
 "Just then Lake moved to adjourn and Dunbar slipped down the back stairs.-SolomonCile BulIetin.

Hhizl such music! It reminds me oi d steam caliope I heard on the Missis- sippi when was 8 kid. A female be hind me remarked that it was the low-and grin wedding march. But it wasn't very low and I didn't feel much like grinning, for here comes the bridal party down the middle trail. And dog gone my buttons! # Bill didn't have one of them swallow tail coats on himselfi We'll, that lets me out on Bill. But the bride, she was shore party, and did'ent blame Bill so much. The outfit lined up before the padre, and somebody whisped, Who's going to give away the bride?' It was then jumped to my feet and reached for my gun. Fortunate for the gent who asked the question, I wasn't needed; for if there is any one thing despise whole lot it is in- situations of his kind. My actions and the few choice remarks 1 let loose came close onto causing a stampede, but the critters got to milling and soon they wa' quieted down.
 "When the padre finished the job 1 walked up the front, shook Bill by the hand and made bluff to kiss the bride; but Bill whispered in my ear, That won't do, old hoss; I'll see you later This riled me considerable 1; but concluded to wait and hear his explanation.

They wouldn't even let him get away on his wedding tower without harryiny him to death. He wanted to give 'em the slip and I was the Indian to help him out.

 Returning to the hotel 1 found the crowd had increased whole lot and they were shore noisy. They had got onto my little game and accused me of getting away with Bill and his bride. "Gents said I, you are toe many for me; l am guilty, most guilty. It is I who have slain Navajo William.

TIE returns received by the inn migration bureau during the last several months show a marked falling off in the number of inn migrant arrivals in this country. The number of arrivals during the nlne months ending March 31, 1897 , was 142.94l as compared with 2O9- 63O for the same period in the first year 1896. This is a decrease of 66,689. During April the decrease at New York alone was II ,439, and during the first eleven days in the present month the falling off at New York was 10,800. Commis- sioner General Stumps estimates that the decrease for the entire country during the first year ending June 30 next will not be less than 93,00O, of which New York prob ably will show 10000.

CONSTIPATION

SHOULD not be regarded as a triHing ailment-in fact, nature demands the utmosr regularity of the bowels, and any deviation from this demand paves the way often to serious danger. It is quite as necessary to remove impure accumulations from the bowels as it is to eat or sleep, and no health can be expected where a costive habit of body prevails.

Barrel hubs still persist and the rear
hub is one single steel forging. The ball
cases are hardened and a movable re-
tanning cap prevents the escape of balls
from the crank-shaft bearing. There
is no longer an oil hole in any part of
the running gear, but the oil is adj
mitted from the side of the bearings
through a felt washer, which acts as a
sieve.
Hartford Single Tube Tires are en-
ployed. The complete tread and inner
tube are vulcanized together, with fab
ric between, making a single com
pound tube with mutually supporting
parts. These tires present no problem
of part friction, are light and buoyant,
wear only on the exterior, and require,
therefore, no repairs unless directly
punctured. Their ready adaptability
to repair is proverbial.
The spokes are held at the hub by the
Columbia new separate spoke stud,
which prevents all bending or twisting
of the spoke.

NEW COLUMBIA CONSTRUCTION

With the major part OF humanity, the
term perfection" is merely relative.
One example is sufficient to be cited in
support of this statement. AS regards
bicycle construction, thousands of
enthusiastic cycling deyotees declared
that the '96 Columbia models were per-
feet, that improvement could hardly be
imagined, much less conceived and that
there would be nothing new in 1897.
The Pope Manufacturing Company,
on the contrary, have never sought
fame inconsistent with the deserts of
their product. They have never, there
fore, claimed that the Columbia bicycle
was perfect. They have rightly called
it peerless and the Standard of the
World, but have asserted that it is only
as near ultimate perfection as contem-
porary science, skill and intelligence
will permit That is to say, the Co.
lumbia is the best wheel known or
possible to be known at any particular
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-04-08

period. AS soon as the new and better
idea appears, it is embodied in Co.
lumbia construction after adequate eX
pertinent and complete proof of su-
periority.
Now, it is remarkable in the face Of
what we have just been saying concern
ing the hasty use of so absolute term
as perfection" that the new Columbia
bicycle models for 1897 embody more
improvements than have ever previous
ly been adopted at any one time. The
frames are made of five per cent. nickel
steel tubing. This tubing is the prod
uct of one mill only, and the entire
output is reserved for exclusive use in
Columbia bicycles. The tremendous
strength of this material ensures the
utmost degree of rigidity to the frame.
\ system of flush joints has also been
introduced, so that no juncture of one
tube with another shows anywhere on
the frame of the machirN. Within the
tubes are thimbles and long reinforce
ments all brazed together in one indis-
soluble whole.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-04-08

gives great strength. The bar is held,
firmly in position at any desired angle,
without the help of a key, and the
slightest variation is possible. 1t is
made Of 20-gauge nickel steel tubing,
light, rigid and gracefully curved.
An added distinction to Columbia
dignity is found in the new fork crown
device. The double crown is employed,
and the whole is covered and sur
mounted by handsome nickeled es-
cutcheon, bestowing a peculiar charm
and beauty upon the whole machine.
The rear forks have been greatly
changed and improved. The front por-
ton of the tubing in the lower rear fork
is "a inch round; at the other end it is
"a inch. A d shape is effected inter-
mediately, and the utmost possible
strength maintained.

out of the front carriage"
Dear me-" said Mrs. Purvey, hurry
ing downstairs. What can at all
mean?"
And she FASTENED into the presence
of Mr. Marlowe, who stood in the best
parlor, with Mrs. Hyde leaning on his
arm.
You're too late to witness the cere-
mony," chuckled the quondam old
bachelor. We're married"
"Who are married." shrieked Mrs.
Purvey, growing palIid under her rouge.
Bessie Hyde, ma'am, and your hum
bic servant. Why, whom did you sup
pose?" demanded Mr.. Marlowe, open
ing his eyes very wide.
''Lawll-a-massy!" cried Jemima,
rushing forward to support the widows

was goin' to marry her."
'Then she was fool:" said Mr.. Mar
lowe, briskly Come, Bessie, my dear,
we have no time to lose if we are to
catch the three o'clock train"
Mrs. Purvey came out of her swoon
and into her senses with commendable
alacrity. If she had lost bridegroom,
that vas no reason why she should
also lose IL first-class pair of boarders.
She ted an apron over her dun-colored
silk, and hurried to help serve the
breakfast.

The Columbia crankshaft mechanism
this year is quite beyond criticism. The
interlocking arrangement Of the shalt
has been reversed, bringing the wedge
end on the gear crank, and the slot on
the other end has been made Y-shape
The forged crank sleeve is thickened,
giving more than double the resistance
against internal pressure. The sprocket
screws to the hub of the right crank,
with a right hand thread and is secured
by check nut.
The driving gear is now so arranged
that the ball-bearing sprocket end is
outside the chain line, the chain thus
drawing between the two rows of balls
The famous Columbia Self-Oilipg
chain is used, and both sprocket wheels
are detachable, to allow of change of
gear.
