A JOKE THAT FAILED.

Edward Windust kept most popular res

lar man in many respects, and in mono
SO much as sticking for absolute purity
in everything he put upon the tables for
his guests, among whom were most of tho
celebrities Of tho day. Windust was al
ways atfable and good natured and dearly
loved any kind of an innocent joke
Every morning he took big basket on
his arm and trOtted down to Washington
or Fulton market to order supplies for tho
day, some of the choicest Of which he car
ried back in his basket. The dealers in
both markets knew him and were anxious
to sell to him, because they knew that no
would pay good prices for the best of stuff.
One old woman in Fulton market sup
piled him with horse radish for many years
and for q short timo after he sprung what
he thought was joke on her. He said to
her one morning: "Aunty, it seems to mo
that your horse radish is not as strong as
it used to be. Are you sure you are not
adulterating it with something?"
"1ndeed am not. What would use to
adulterate horse radish I'd like to know?"
II don't know, but began to suspect
that you were mixing ground turnips
with it" said Windust.
"Sure, never thought Of such q
thing" the woman answered.
Windust said many times afterward that
he devoutly wished that he had never joked
with the woman about the matter, for he
was never able to get pure horse radish
from her again and had to give up trad

THE CONTEST in OHIO.
Mr.. Kurtz May Be the Candidate of
the Auti-Hanna Men.

Mr.. Kurtz May BE the Candidate of
the Autl-Hanna Men.
Columbus, O., Jan. S.-While Senator
Hannas managers are apparently more
cheerful, the cause for it it not ar-
parent. They have adopted quite a
different policy in their canvass from
that followed at the beginning of the
contest. They are now following the
tactics of Mr.. Kurtz, leader of the OPP
position, whose strong suit has been to
conceal everything possible from the
Hanna people.
The efforts of the steering committee
to whip the Democratic members of
the legislature into line to vote for
Republican for senator have not been
so successful as they expected. AS a
result 1t is stated authoritatively that
there will be caucus of the Demo-
cratic members next Monday night.
The most reliable information today
Is that Mr.. Kurtz will be proposed as
the candidate of the opposition, both
for the long and short term. 1t is now
believed by the Democratic leaders that
Mr.. Kurtz will be more acceptable to
the majority of the Democratic mem
bers Of the legislature than any other
man.
Speculation on the vote for senator
has not changed. It is generally be-
lieved now that the vote on the first
ballot will show Mr.. Hanna's strength
to be about the same as in the organi-
cation of the legislature.
