Even Up.
During the summer of 1896 a handsome
New Engla woman paid visit to one Of
the North side society queens of Wichita.
In due time swell lawn party was
given by the hostess at her home, to
make the visitors acquainted with her
western friends. Among those invited
was Will Beatty. He was presented to
the eastern lady, and it happened to be his
good fortune a little later in the evening to
have her on his arm promenading over the
velvety lawn. In the course. of the con.
yersation Miss Blank asked Mr.. Beatty what
business he followed, and he replied: I'm
q commercial traveller" The visitor, pos.
nbly in a moment of mental alteration,
made this remark: "In the east commercial
travellers do not go in the best society"
Before the last word had hardly left her
lips Mr.. Beatty replied: "They don't here,
either" Conversation was carried on after
that in entirely different channels.-Wichita

with the top of the stock and the scion
should lean little outward on the side
of the stock in which it was inserted, So
the growing layer between the bark and
wood comes opposite to the growing
layer in stock, and nearly parallel with
it, the slanting outward making it sure
that the two growing layers cross, and
thus certainly secure contact. If the
stock is small, one graft will do, but if
one and one-half inch or more in diane
ter, then two-one on either side
should be inserted. Sometimes three
or four scions are inserted in a very
large stock, by making cross clefts.
The cleft in stock is held open with the
narrow blunt chisel as lever inserted
in the cleft in the center of the stock.
After the scions are accurately and
firmly set, press clean, damp soil care-r
fully and firmly with the hands, all
around and over the junction of the
scions with the stock, so as to exclude
the air / never tie or wax my grating
of this kind, and succeed with about 90
per cent. The wax is not nearly so con-
genial to the vine as is the damp soil,
and much less liable to start decay.
Finally heap up the loose soil about the
scions until only the top eye of each is
left at the top of the mound of soil, as
in cut. This grating in place should be
done just as buds begin to push in stock
in spring and when bleeding has about
stopped. The scions should have been
taken earlier, before bleeding began,
and kept dormant in cold soil.-T. V.

RAILWAY employees.
Propose Making Their Votes Tell
on Election Day.

The railway employees held another
enthusiastic meeting last night at
Pythian Castle. A very large number
attended. All matters that came up
were warmly discussed.
]. NJ. Brown, an employe of the Sac
ramento shops for the last twenty-five
years, a boilermaker by trade, was
mentioned by some of the members as
candidate for Tax Collector The
name of w. r. Renfro, an employe OF
the paint shop was also mentioned in
that connection. Both candidates had
very earnest supporters, but as their
friends were urging their candidacy
principally for the general support OF
the club it was apparent that should
both remain in the contest a division
of the railroad employees vote would
be the result
Mr.. Renfro, realizing this, and being
anxious to see a railroad man get the
office, he set aside his personal ambi-
tion and generously resigned in favor
of Mr. Brown, whereupon the club
passed a resolution that j. M. Brown
receive the unanimous moral support
of the club.
Great applause followed the action OF
the cluD, ana nearly every melnDeI
present arose and expressed himself
as a hearty worker in Mr.. Brown S
behalf.
This action of the club, the members
believe is equivalent to Mr.. Browns
election, and they say they are going
to make their strength forcibly left in
this particular fight.
1t was deemed necessary, owing to
the close approach of election day, to
hold a special meeting next Sunday
afternoon, at which the report of the
Endorsement Committee will be read
and methods adopted for carrying out
the Endorsement of candidates.

presented the name of J. T. McGregor

A communication was received from
James Touhey to the effect that If the
county desired the further use Of the
vacant lot in the rear of the County
Jail, on which to store cobblestones, he
would consider a proposition from the
county to purchase it.
Chairman Morrison said the county
used to pay $40 per month for the use
of the lot. but at his motion the rent
| was reduced to $50. Mr.. Touhey has
not been satisfied with that sum and
either wants a higher rental or to sell
the lot to the county.

Father Yorke's Lambasting Of Ma
guire and Phe1an.

The chief topic in local political cir
cles yesterday was Father Yorke's
roastings of Mcguire and Phelan, the
fusion candidates, respectively, for
Governor and Mayor of San Francisco.
Father Yorke's arraignment of these
political counterfeits," said a we'll
posted citizen, will cost them many
thousands of votes, not only in San
Francisco but all through the State. He
has striped the pair of their masks,
and it amounts almost to a case of in
decent exposure. It will cost Mcguire
a thousand votes right in this county,

Said another: ST don't know much
about the country outside the CITY, but
from what I hear I believe that at
least 500 voters right here in town
have abandoned Mcguire in the last
two days"
That is the kind of talk one hears
wherever he goes.

and ascertain on what terms the prop
