Judge q. W. Clark, a pioneer resident
Of Rapid City, made an attempt to take
his W life on Sunday last, by cutting
his throat with a pocket knife, which
being too dull to be dangerous, failed to
do its deadly work, and the result was
a failure SO far as suicide was concerned.
The Judge had been brooding over his
troubles for some time, which it is be-
lieved resulted in the slipping Of a cog
in his mental balance wheel, and caus.
ed him to make the futile attempt to
sever the frail tread of life.

Elegant weather, yes elegant, but
really, w have had so much of it of late
that we are beginning to feel restless,
and desirious of a change. 1t may
appear anomalous, but it is true just the
same, that people do sometimes wax
weary under the most favorable condi.
tons. 1t will be remembered how OBJ
noxious the good times of the early
nineties became to the masses, and how
eagerly they worked for a change. How
peculiar us poor mortals be "man never
is, but always to be blest."

A SURGEONS DISCOVERY.
He Found That Erishmen Had Cal Ioused Spots on Their
 Shoulders.

\ young physician, some years ago appointed as interne at one of the hos pitals in this city, at one time made a discovery that nearly made him fac nous. While in attendance at this hos pital seaffolding erected for conven- fence of workmen at a building in course of erection i'll this city broke down, injuring seven lrishmen.
 The young disciple of Esculapius was in the receiving room when the patrol wagons brought in the men. In ex- amining one of the men for injuries he discovered calloused spot on the right shoulder He thought nothing of this, until looking over the second man, on whom he discovered the same spot. He then went over the entire batch of in- iured men, and found the same mark on each shoulder. Coneealing his discov- cry from his superiors, the young man went about all day with visions of fame floating through his brain. In every conceivable way he managed to obtain a glance during the day at each mans shoulder, to be sure the calloused marks were still there. That night he locked himself securely in his bed chamber and prepared paper in which, at great length, he dilated upon the discovery he had made. He wrote pages upon the pe- culiar structural formation of the Irish- mems bodies, and stated that, although in descending generations possibly the spot would be nearly obliterated, so as to become almost unnotieeable, yet he had no doubt that if each and every Irishman in the world was examined traces of the ealloused spot could be found on the shoulder. In the morning, bursting with his newly ac- qured information, he took one of ths physicians of the institution into his confidence. The physician listened te the young man with an air of interest and then asked: On what shoulder does this calloused spot occur?"
 "The right one! The right!" ex claimed the young man, "and am sure it can be found on all Irishman's shouL 1 ders!"

TO THE DEAD IN CUBA.

 Now rest ye safe, and sleep ye fair,
 My wearled soldiers in the South; No more the brazen trumpets blare Nor cannon below at the mouth. No more the angry flags are tossed Where trench and sullen fort defy; Where Death Is bred and Life is lost So sleep ye, sleep ye tenderly The nations wonder at your deeds, The Poets sing them-crown you great The Kings cry Wait" to him who needs, And stand like beggars at my gate. No more the yellow flag is flown
 Like sickly fester on the sky, The crop of grape and shell is sown- So rest ye rest ye tenderly. Now rest ye safe. and sleep ye fair,
 My wearied soldiers done with war Those strange hills hold our glory there So sleep ye, and forget the scar. Gods peace is where the swords were
 crossed
 And white stars swing above the sea. And rest Is found where life was lost So sleep ye, sleep ye tenderly. Theodore Roberts, in N Y. Independent

WHAT SQUARED
 TOM,S ACCOUNT
TaM- sat hy+he library tahle work-
By GRACE DuFrIELD GOODWIN.

YE0M sat by the library table work
 ing over his arithmetic lesson. He was trying to find out how much seven yards of calico would cost if one yard cost Il cents, and his paper was covered with figures. Finally he took new piece and began again:
 To 7 yds. calico at Il cts. ...... $ TT And as he finished the last seven his father looked over his shoulder.
 Bills, Tom?" he asked That's right. only hope you will nerer get as many as 1 have" And he dropped into the armchair by the fire, tired with the days work and glad to be at home again.
 Tom came over and leaned against his fathers knee for a few minutes talk before dinner that they always had to- gether.
 Papa, he asked, "when a man does any work, oughtn't he to be paid for it?''
 Certainly was papa's reply, if he asks fair price"
 Then they began to talk of something else, and papa forgot the question and his own reply long before dinner was ready.
 The next day was Saturday, but Tom stayed in the house, working busily at his arithmetic. Mamma told Kate that she was afraid Tom was not well, and she really looked relieved to see him flying down the hill in the afternoon. Wonder of wonders he was not late to dinner, but came in early, and slipped into the dining-room before anyone else had come down. He looked little conscious when note dropped out of each napkin, and waited impatiently to see them unfolded. Kate opened hers first and glanced through it, break ing out into a merry laughter Tom looked cross. Kate always laughed at him. He wished he was 16 and she was 12, he would laugh at her all the time.
 ''Why, Tom" she was saying, what
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1898-11-13

"She didn't say anything about mak- ing candy for the fellows yesterday, or coming to school with my slate when l forgot it, or showing me how to do that ninth example"
 Very quietly Tom sat for a little while, and as he sat there he thought it all over; he remembered ever so many things that papa and mamma hadn't put in their bills. Then he took his slate and pencil to count up all he owed
 It was not vey hard to do, and soon the answer-$t.6 t.60-stared in his face. Slowly he got mp from his chair, slow ly went over to the closet, and brought out his red bank in which he kept the money he was saving for his share in the oig sbob' that the boys were hay ing made There wasn't any way out of it. If papa and mamma and Kate asked a fair price for what they had done for him, he surely ought to pay their bills as they had paid his.
 He wouldn't have cried for the world, but his throat felt very lumpy when the bank was opened, and all the pre- cl0uS dimes ana l1ekels anu penules were in his hand-S2.03.
 Then he took his slate again and did an example in subtraetion-$1.60 from $2. .o3 leaves 43 cents. Back in the bank went 43 cents, and then. dividing the rest according to the bills, he took the money and went upstairs and paid his debts Kate was going to say: Keep it, Tom. dear; don't want your money" but look at mammals face warned her. She receipted her bill mamma and papa signed theirs, and Tom, with very sober face, kissed the family all good night.
 But the little mothers heart went out after the boy, and when he was safely in bed she came in and llnelt down with her arms around him.
 Tom" she whispered in his ear, '.nothers and little boys don't ever do things for each other for money, or fathers or sisters, either, Tom. What do they do them for, dear?"
 And Tom replied steadily and slowly: "Never for anything but love, mother dear" "-S. s. Times.

 The first thing he did when he came home from school in the afternoon was to run 10 mamma and show her the four blades--two big ones and two lit tie ones and she WAS almost as much pleased as he. Al dinner time he was quite surprised to find in his napkin, this time, three little notes just like the ones he had sent to papa and mann ma and Kate the night before. He didn't open them until after dinner, because the little doubtful feeling had come back and he thought he would rather be by himself When, finally, he did look at them, this is what he found: Tom Ellis.

Cervern Obeved Cruel Orders.

New York July IA World dispatch
from Madrid says:
When the Madrid government heard
the results Of the battling before San
tiagO July /, ii cabled to General LII
mares, General Blanco and Admiral Ger
vera for the real state Of affairs.
Then, Immediately on asCertaining
that reinforcemeRts could not possibly
arrive in time to relieve the Spanish for
tunes Of war on land or save Santiago
and the feet, the government cabled
Saturday asking the advice Of Admiral
Cervera.
He demanded carte blanche to follow
his judgment and destroy his vessels
In the bay Of Santiago rather than let
them fall into the hands Of the enemy.
The council Of ministers thereupon in
structed the ministers Of marine and
war to cable to make sortie at any
cost, even at the risk of the destruction
of his fleet, because it was necessary to
prevent a disaster in the bay Of San
tiago for political and dynastic reasons.
Admiral Cervera cabled in reply: II
will obey and go to my doom Sunday
morning."
When the news Of the sortie Of the
feet reached Madrid the minister of
foreign affairs told several Of the am
bassadors that the government had Or
dered CerVera to go out.
