AT this crisis in the fate of the
nation all minor and internal diff
fcrences should be set. aside and
every citizen of the United States
should do his utmost to strengthen
President McKinley's hands. The
carping criticism that has nssailed
his statesmanlilse caution at this
trying period should be hushed.
A tremendous burden rests on his
shoulders No light thing is it to
precipitate a war. Had he rushed
into the fray with impetuous haste
and thus imperiled thousands of
lives that may yet be saved, and
millions Of money that may not be
required, he would have been de-
serving of severest blame. AS it is,
he seems to be acting with wise,
patriotic determination to do the
right. Neither jingoistic nor cow
ardiy peace-nt-anyprice polite
ians have swayed his hand. which
we should oil uphold in its guild
ance of tho helm of the nation at a
moment of thrilling uncertainty.

Spain may back down. In fact
that seems a not improbable con-
clusion to the Spanish-American
crisis which is now making history.
But the United States will stand
no nonsense and the men who
blew up the Maine must be ex-
posed and hanged in Havana har-
Dor, if Spain wants peace.

MAKING READY FOR A RUN
A Locomotive Is Almost as Carefully
 Groomed as Race Horse.

A Locomotive Is Almost Carefully Groomed as a Race Horse.
 Running the Fast Express" is the title of an article by George Ethelbert Walsh in St. Nicholas. Mir. Walsh says:
 The engineer comes down to his post of duty nearly ap hour before his train is scheduled to leave. All night long in the roundhouse the engine has been carefully watched; a wiper has spent the whole night rubbing down the pant ing, snorting iron horse until every rod and cylinder shines like gold or silver; the banked fire has been kept going, so that a little steam has been always in the boxes, and before he left at night the fireman put everything in perfect order inside the cab The fireman ap- pears first in the morning and inspects the work of the roundhouse men, and if any part is not satisfactory he makes it so. The engineer makes his inspection after the fireman and thoroughly and carefully examines every part. All the bearings are then oiled, and the oil cups are filled with oil. Next the engine is run out of the roundhouse and tested. Fifteen minutes before the time to start the engine is coupled to the train, and the steam and airbrakes are tested.
 No race horse was ever brought to his nost better fitted for running the course than is the locomotive of the fast ex- nress. In addition to the tests already made. a mechanic goes from wheel to wheel, and upon every one strikes 8 sharp. resounding blow to ascertain if the wheel and axle are sound. Nuts and bolts are examined. The engineer and fireman are held responsible for the per- fees condition of the engine and cars bs. fore the start is made.

flower is considered quite sufficient. White gloves of kid, not suede, are worn, and white silk stockings, the shoes of kid or satin having orange blossom buds instead of buckles.
 It is not now fashionable for the bride to carry in her hand big bouquet of orange flowers. The bridal bouquet is care fully preserved as a souvenir, few sprays from it being given to the brides most in- innate friends as keepsakes which will bring good fortune to the possessor.
 Women who are subject to neuralgia and colds should be careful about wetting the head or hair. Instead of washing the latter with water, it may be cleaned by thickly sprinkling it with finely powdered dry starch, which must be well shaken down among the roots. 1t is then brushed out of the hair with a rather stiff brush, no traces being allowed to remain.
 When the hair comes out in large quan- titles, it is an indication that some sort of tonic treatment is required for the scalp. A saturate solution of salt in rum usually has a most beneficial effect, arresting the fall of the hair and stimulating it to new growth. The salt and rum should be thor oughly rubbed in.
 The illustration given today shows a costume of dark red cloth. The skirt is ornamented at the sides with inlet fans of dark red velvet and three bands of fur are arranged obliquely below the hips. The blouse bodice of red cloth has a plaited yoke of red velvet traversed by bands of fur and opens over plastron of red velvet The sleeves of cloth are puffed at the shoulder, lengthwise plating of velvet extending from the puff to the elbows. The plating is eneircled by three bands of fur. The valois collar of fur is fastened by bow of black satin and gold buckle The belt is of yellow leather.

wild Animals In Chicago.

Seems funny to hear of hunting wild animals in Chicago doesn't it? And vet in the big grassy corners of the city there are still lurking denizens of the forests and prairies. A man in West Ridge has made good deal of money recently by trapping minks and selling their fur. And there are weasels that catch his chickens. In the same neigh borbood hunters have found prairie chickens. coons that nibble the growing corn and lots of rabbits and ground hogs. And it was only last summer that a Chicago farmer shot an African hyena in a corner of his cowyard; but he learned afterward that it had escaped from the zoo. And thus you see that Chicago has not yet lost ali of the flavor of the wild woods. Chicago Record.

AUDRAIN AT SPRINGFIELD.
Hon. W. q. Kennsn Says the Conven.
tion Was q Most Harmonious
One-Splendid Ticket
Nominated.

Hon. W. H. Kennan returned from
Springfield Friday and says the Con-
vention was most harmonious. He
says the ticket and platform both give
splendid satisfaction. Audrain coun-
ty had sixteen votes to cast on the
ballot for Supreme Judge-that 10,
eight for long term and eight for short
term. Judge Valiant got eight, Judge
Marshall two and six voted scattering.
Audrain county voted solid on two
ballots for Forgey for Railroad Com
missioner, after which his name was
withdrawn. On final ballot Audrain
voted tor McCully. On the first bal
lot Mr.. Forgey got eight from Au-
drain, two from Montgomery and i've
from Pike; on the second ballot he got
thirteen votes. Mr.. Kennan says har.
mony prevails In the party throughout
the entire State and he thinks the
ticket win be elected BY largely in.
creased vote this fall. Audrain coun-
ty delegates were delighted with
Springfield and seem to have had q
most pleasant time.

No Perdition For Good Democrats

From the st, Louis Star.


To-day the Missouri sachems, at the
head Of their respective camps, are
assembled at Springfield, the old home
of that late nestor Of Democracy, Jno.
8. Phelps. II 1t were possible that the
spirit Of the departed leader could be
present at the assemblage 1t would be
worth much to any Newspaper to be
the first to report his opinions touch
ing the relative merits OF the different
chiefs.
He would look upon Sam Cook and
Bob White, and while admitting that
the former has the advantage, being
In possession, he would probably think
the latter the stronger man and better
Democrat. In the end, possibly, both
of them will be consigned to ever
lasting perdition for not having recon-
ciled their personal differences be-
tween themselves.

THE MoBERLY FAIR.
Ike Wins the Big Saddle Stake-Billie
Carter Wins the 2:l7 Pace.

Eight or ten thousand people at
tended the Moberly fair Thursday and
everybody got the worth of their
money.
Ike, the property Of R. P. Moore, Of
this county, was awarded first prem
ium in the big saddle stake. He was
ridden by Luther Barnett, Of this city,
who made a great show with him.
Ella Madison, the California mare,
won the three year old trot in straight
heats. Best time, ,.2:24A. Geo. Lees
Merry Ego was close up second
every heat. This is the way these two
colts have been finishing all through
the circuit.
The 2I7 pace was won hands down
by Billie Garter with Lady Herod.
There was no mile in the four heats
that the mare could not have gone
from 2 to seconds faster and in two
of the heats she led the gang down
the stretch hundred yards. In the
second heat four watches in the stand
caught her IN 2:13 and a number out.
side in from 2:12k to 2:13. She lost
the first heat by break at the first
turn. Garter wisely laid her up and
drove her for position. He took the
next three heats easily. Fred F. was
second, Seneca See third and Redwood
Redmon fourth. Razzle Dazzle, Belle
@, Orpha Wilkes and P. J. also started.
For best saddle mare or gelding, any
age, Barnett and Hisey, of this city,
took second premium.
For best saddle horse, mare or geld
ing, under years, Barnett and Hisey
captured first.
Col. Alb. Dingle, formerly of this
city, is the president of the associa-
ton and has, with the aid of the citi-
zens of Moberly and the people of that
section generally, made the fair Q
grand success, notwithstanding the
feeble local opposition to the enter
prise from some quarters.
VIM. F. Reed, proprietor Of the
Merchants Hotel, the leading house in
