A Contrast of Methods.

An Exposition scandal.

Omaha, October 31.-A sensation
has developed in the department of
exhibits at the Mississippi ex-
position, growing out of the arrest OF
II. b. Hardt, assistant manager OF
that department., on two warrants
charging him with forgery. He will
be arraigned to-day. Hardt denies
the charges and in turn declares he
will make some counter charges that
will cause more of a sensation than
his arrest.
The warrants for Hardt's arrest
were sworn TO by II. S. Cochron, rep-
resenting Scofeld, Scfllmer & Tea
gle, and FL. A. Searle, of the Monarch
Manufacturing Company. Both COM
plainants allege that Hardt so
changed the awards of the judges
that the medals and certificates of
merit which should have gone TO the
firms mentioned went to some other
firm.

Wilheln1ina, who was seven at the

and the baroness hastened to send of

The Arkansav Razorbaek.

One thing that pleases US about the
report of Secretary Coburn is that he
seems to clearly prove that the Kan
saS hog is a creature of aesthe ticism
and refinement.
"A little reflection will show you
that the secretary is right. Show us
the kind of hogs they raise and we
will show you the kind of people
there are in any community.
In darkest Arl0anSaw the swine is n
true index of the state of civilization
In that Godforsaken por tion of the
terrestrial sphere.
There the hog is built after the
similitude of a saw-horse and ac-
quires no more fat than q scraped
bacon rind.
When he rams his nose its full
length into the ground, he brings up
specimens from three or four geo.
logical strata and triumphantly
yanks the grub worm from her lair.
The Arkansaw hog will accumulate
NO more flesh than a tanning mill,
but he Is sprinter who would make
Sumol hustle in a competitive test of
speed. With a tail like a whip lash
and hams like soda crackers he is
lean and sinewy and splits the at
mosphere as he travels.
There Dis as much difference be-
tween the Kansas hog and the Ar
kansaw hog as there is between the
typical. Arkansawer and the progress
Edve Kansas Republican.
Tho Kansas hog as shown in the
report, is thing of beauty and the
