EX-SECRETARY of State Price, now
OF Oregon, has the past week been
passing over his old haunts in this
State predicting large majorities for
the Republican ticket. He did so two
years ago and his forecast was noted
for its inaccuracy. "Jim" as Oily aflec.
tionately calls him, confines his
representations mainly to Pierce
county, this time, and says "There has
been revulsion of sentiment in that
county" The revulsion" is all in
your mind, Jimmy, rs you will again
be taught by the course of events.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7, 1898.
The covert threat to reopen the war
hy sending 4 strong fleet to the coast
of Spain, sent out from Washington
this week, was ostensibly intended to
scare the Spanish government into di-
recting the Peace Commissioners, at
Paris, to speedily accept the PROPOSE
ton made 10y the American Peace
Commissioners, but its real object is
to try to make votes for Republican
candidates for Congress by stirring up
the war spirit among the people, and
asking them to stand by the admins
tration because the war isn't over. 1t
is queer sort OF voter that this sort
of thing will influence. That the
Spanish Peace Commissioners will
bubble aud delay as long as possible
is the natural thing to expect from
Spaniards, but every fairly well-in-
formed person knows that Spain is Just

Ian and Canrht the Car.

A short man with fat, red face ran
out Of the Erie railroad depot at the
foot of West Twenty third street the
other forenoon and chased a crosstown
car which was midway between Eley-
onth avenue and the ferry. He was a
fast runner and held his has in his left
hand as he gained on the car. The pas
seugers on the rear platform, in a spirit
Of mirth, encouraged him:
Don't give up You'll make il.
Make q spurt, old boy. This is your
last chance to get car before two min
utcs, - one of them said.
At Eleventh avenue he caught up,
and, perspiring profusely, sprang upon
the rear platform. lie appeared happy,
and when he handed his fare to the con-
ductcr he said: ''These Bleecker street
cars that run down Ninth avenue do
not go often, SO l ran TO catch this one. &"
The conductor rang up the fare, and in
matter of fact way answered:
This car goes to Thirty fourth street
ferry. Get out and wait for a Blocker
street car.
The spTinter got off as some of the
passengers cried out
You can run anyway. 1t is better
to run and lose a car than never 10 per-
spire at all. New York Commercial

NUT TREES.
Plant the Nuts, and the Trees VIII Grow
After Awhile.

Plant the Nuts, and the Trees VIII Grow
After Awhile.
The age at which any nut trees come
into bearing depends on the care given
to the trees Some authorities state that
Is or 20 years are necessary TO bring
them into full bearing from the time
the nut is planted. This is a mistake,
as trees that have been well cared for
should hear bUshal Of nuts in ten years,
and the quantity viii increase rapidly
each year after that time.
Some persons may enjoy raising these
trees from seed. To be sure it is rather
a slow process, but it is interesting
work. When planting the nuts, if they
have thin shells be perfectly sure that
they have not dried out at all The best
plan is to get them as soon as they ripen
and plant them at once. When this Is
not possible, keep them in moist sand or
in sawdCst until they can be started.
BUtternuts, walnuts hickory nuts and
filberts, being hard shelled, viii keep in
growing condition much longer, but
should be planted in the fall, as they
germlnate better when allowed 70 freeze,
as that cracks the shell.
The fall planting is natures own
plan, and the nearer we follow her ways
the better results we may expect. An
other thing, DO not plant the nuts deep.
Nature drops them on the surface and
gives them & tLick covering of leaves in
which the dirt catches as it blows about,
then the snow covers al and helps the
leaves to decay and form covering Of
leaf mold for the tree to grow in.
1t is not practicable for any Of us to
try TO raise all these kinds of nuts, bat
select the ones most likely to succeed in
our climate, and by proper care and at
tention make a success of it. We may
not reap the benefit of our labors, bat
oGr children viii and theirs after them.

sirnIacanoe Of the Nose.

The nose, the form of which regulates
the beauty Of the other features, is by
no means inaccessible to higher culture,
for we have it on the authority of
German physician that it is beyond dis
pute that during half of an individual
human life the nose is capable of re-
ceiving q more noble form. The train
ing Of the individual, the culture of his
intellect and character, has . very con-
siderable influence not only on the ex-
preston Of the face in general, but also
on the bodily nature of the nose. The
characteristics Of the various shapes Of
nose, according TO physiognomy, are as
follows: The small, fiat nose found
among women and called the soubrette
nose, when occurring with an other
wise agreeable and fortunate build Of
features, indicates a certain gracious
and cheerful naivete combined with an
inconsiderate curiosity Such a nose
seldom is possessed by men, and when
it Is it den9tes an individuality char
acterized by weakness and deficient sa-
gacity. A nose thick and fiat is an un-
favorable feature with men as well as
with women, usually signifying that
the character is predominated by mate
rial and sensual instincts, while turn
ed Up nose, with wide nostrils, bespeaks
a vain, pulled up disposition. Especial
ly wide nostrils are signs of strength,
courage and pridei small nostrils, of
weakness and timidity. Noses large in
every respect are found mostly among
men and are masculine attributes.

the principal who made the rctort may
explain and then the original offender
tender his apology" when the Ii,

must either beg pardon in express terms,
exchange two shots previous TO apollo
