APPEAL OF A TOPEKA GIRL,


Asks Others to Stop Offering Liquor to
Young Men.
Lead them not into temptation" is
the cry of Miss Olivia Van Tassel, a
leader in Topeka society, who has Gre
ated a sensation by declaring that the
young society women of the town are
Turing young men to ruin by offering
them drink when they come into their
homes. Miss Van Tassel charges the
downfall of one young man to this
custom, and she has made an appeal
to the society women of Topeka to put
away their wine decanters and assist
in saving the young men from drunk
ards graves. She says: II think
it is just awful the way wine is served
to young men by some Of the society
women of Topeka. One young man
has been ruined by this practice, and
society young women are responsible
for their downfall. 1t is amazing that
so many of the young women of this
town do not object to the young men
drinking liquor, and it is still more
shocking to know that many of the
young women drink liquor them
selves" Miss Van Tassel will carry her
war into the churches and will appeal
to the parents to throw the nasty stuff
into the cutters.

CURIOSITY OF MONKEYS.
One Who Was Inquisitive In Regard to
Home BreWed Ale.


Home Brewed Ale.
Curiosity seems to be the great fail
ure, or virtue, of monkeys. A story is
told of an Englishman who had. a
South African monkey which had
travelled with him around the world.
When his bachelor days were over he
took his young wife to lovely old
manor house in the south of England,
and, Englishmanlike, kept several ba~-
rels of good ".home-brewed" ale in the
cellar. On returning from church IN
Sunday morning he noticed that the
cellar door was open, and started on
tour of investigation. AS he went down
the steps Jenny, the monkey, rushed
up, and he found that she had set all
the spigots running. The door had
been inadvertently left open. and Jen-
ny, doubtless, went prying into the
semi-lighted place. Turning one spigo.
on produced such a rushing stream
that she tried the others also, much to
the waste of the liquor. It may ,e
added that when the Englishman's
first-born appeared and monopolizei
attention, Jenny got such a fit of jeal-
ousy that she was at once sent to the
secluded but more congenial society 10
be found in the monkey house of -ha
London Geological Gardens.

TalIest Of All Trees.

In New South Wales, Victoria and
Tasmania grows species of gum tree
eucalyptus amygdalina is it's scien-
tif1c name-which Sir F. Won Mueller
says probably represents "the tallesu
of all trees of the GLOBE" The Hottest
specimen of this tree yet measured
towers to the height Of All feet. A
PROSTATE tree, measured in Victoria,
was 420 feet long, and the distance
from the roots to the lowest branch
was 295 feet. At that point the trunk
was feet in diameter, and $50 feet
from the butt the diameter was still
8 feet. The wood Of this tree is hard
and of good quality; it grows quick
~. and yields great quantity of VIOLA
tile oil from it's leaves. which are very
abundant.

Gov. Clough again last week de-
monstrated that he was governor,
and communicating chief of the
state forces, when a delegation OF
the guard officers waited on him
and said they did not think it fair
their places should be filled with
new companies while they were
away. He promptly told them if
they did not want to fulfill their
offer as volunteers to go home
again.

Worthington now has an oppor-
tunity Of filling a place in the
National Guard and it is safe to
say it will be taken advantage of.
It can be done if the citizens will
bestir themselves in that direction
as there is no question but what
a sufficient number of able bodied
men can be secured readily, es-
pecially when it is realized that
the company will be permanent
organization.

The bill declareing a state of
war to have existed between the
U. S. and Spain since and includ-
ing April 81, was signed with the
same pen by Speaker Reed, Vice
President Hobart, President Me-
Kinley, and the pen is now IN the
possession of Representative Will
liam Alden Smith, of Michigan,
who could not be persuaded, brib-
ed or bulldozed in allowing it's
ownership to pass to another.
Secretary Charles Dick, of tho
Republican National committee,
has closed the Washington head
quarters of that committee and
gone to join his regiment-he is
Lieutenant Colonel of the Eighth
Ohio-wh1ch has volunteered in a
BODY for the war. The headQuart

some time, as the National COM
mittee will take no part in the

Visitors to the government de-
partments other than the State,
War and Navy, see not the slight
est signs of war. Business is NOV
ing along with it's usual clock-like
regularity in the Treasury, the de-
partment of Justice, OF Agricul-
ture, the Post Office, and tho In
terror, which includes the Patent,
Pension, and Land Offices. About
the only difference notice in any
of these Offices on account of the
war is in tho Patent office, where
the applications for prtents show
that much of the inventive genius
of the country is working upon
war-like ideas. Nobody having
or expecting to have business with
any government department need
feel the slightest uneasiness on &C.
count of the war. 1t will not
have any effect upon such bust
ness.
The two changes in the cabinet,
Charles Emory Smith, for some
years editor of the Philadelphia
Press, made Postmaster General

Washington Letter.
(From Onr Regular Correspondents
WASHINGTON. Apr. %. 1898.

WASHINGTON. Apr. 20. 1898.
The House after a three days de
bate passed the war revenue bill,
which will add about $l0O,00O,000
a year to the government revenues
by internal revenue taxation, in
Guiding increases in the taxes on
beer and manufactured tobacco
and a system of stamps similar to
that used during the civil war,
and provides for the issuing Of
$500,000,000 in bonds; also Treas
ury certificates Of indebtedness for
temporary exigences. It remains
to be ascertained whether Sena.
tors Jones, of Ark; Teller, and
the populists can succeed in their
threat of Gripping the fighting
power of the government by str K
ing out of the bill in the Senate the
authority of issue bonds, or rather
whether they will dare to arouse
the indignation of the country by
seriously making the attempt.
From utterances of members of
the Senate Finance committee,
which is dominated by radical
silver men, it is thought to be al
most certain that the committee
will strike the bond clause out Of
the bill before reporting to the
senate, but it is equally certain
that a majority Of the senate, COM
posed of all the republicans and a
few democrats, will vote to put it
back.
President MsKinley is directing
the conduct of the war upon bet
ter advice and knowledge than
that of editors of irresponsible
yellow journals and loud -mouthed
corner .lcafers. He knows what
he is doing and that it will be full
ly approved by the country when
results shall make it's policy ap-
parent. The war news so far has
been satisfactory; the blockade Of
Cuba is successful, and the cap
turing of number of prizes pleas
ing. In good time we shall hoist
Old Glory in Cuba, and our war
ships shall meet those Of Spain.
Capt. Leonard Wood, U. S. A.,
captured the honor of being the
first person authorized by the war
department to raise one of the
regiments at large provided for
in the act authorizing the forma-
tion of a volunteer army, and he
will be it's Colonel and Hon. Theo-
dore Roosevelt has resigned the
position of Assistant Secretary of
the Navy to be its Lieutenant
Colonel. Capt. Wood left Wash

ally accepted the offer of John
Jacob Astor, the New York multi
millionaire, to raise, equip and
MAINTAIN throughout the war at
his own expense regiment of ar
tillery, and to personally lead it.
The equipment Of this regiment,
including its batteries, will be the
very best that money can buy.
Previous to this Mr.. Aston had

The Lakefeld Standard was rob
bed of money a couple of weeks
ago, and during the winter an
editor lost a sum of money. If
the boys don't look out and take
better car of what money they get,
people will think editors do really
have money and want pay for their
goods and refuse to advertise or
even take paper to get their pay,
and then there will be a close up
of some of the print shops and
an increase in the floating popula-
ton.

The defeat of McCleary at the
convention or polls, it is said,
would be victory for the popu-
lists. Notwithstanding the IN
desired candidacy Of McCleery by
the people he will undoubtedly be
nominated and probably by &C
clamation, as it is a we'll known
fact that the delegates to the con-
vention will be chosen by a CON-
paratively few voters,they invari-
ably are the result of the scheming
of few party leaders and to a
minute extent reflect or represent
the peoplet, therefore a person
cannot be termed a poor republi-
can if he refuses to indorse the
word of manufactured delegates,
and they fullyaware a certain con-
didate is not the choice Of the
people. If McCleary is nominal
ed the opposing candidate will re-
ceive the largest vote candidate
of that faith ever did and the
chances for his election will be
very aattering. The people are
getting tired Of ''grand stand
politicians.

The Devils Lake Inter- Ocean tells this story as coming from little Hi nois girl who had prepared it for commencement, under directions to write an essay on the wise man.
 King Solomon was a man who lived ever so many years ago. In the coun- try that he governed he was the whole push. He was an awful wise man and one day two women came to see him, each holding on to the leg of a baby and both claiming it. And King Solo mon wasn't feeling right. "Why could not that brat have been twins and stopped all this bother?" And he called for his sword and was goino to cut the little baby in two and gi>e each of them piece of it, when the one who was the mother of the baby said. Solomon, stay thy hand. Let that old hag have it. If can't have a whole baby I don't want any" Then King Solomon told her to take the baby and go home and wash it's face for he knew it was hers. He told the other woman to chase herself.
 King Solomon built King Solomon's temple, and was the father of all Masons. He had 700 wives and 300 lady friends. My papa says King Solomon was a warm member of the Masons, and I think he was the hot self. That's all know about King stuff, my Solomon.
