GLOBE SIGHTS.

LFrom the Atchison GIobe.I
If you are any mans rich kin, his
neighbors have heard all about you.
An Atchison woman rode out in a
fifty cent hack today to eat a twenty
cent dinner.
If any man hires a sleigh who owns a
lot of debts around town, the people are
quick to notice it.
When woman disappears, taking her
husbands horse and buggy with her,
we have noticed that he maks greater
efforts to ind her than if she had gone
alone.
When a woman with family to do
houseWOrk for, keeps up her interest IN
card parties and receptions, her friends
compliment her for keeping up her am
bitions.'
An Atchison woman has painted such
clever picture of an angel that it is
said that while looking at 1t, you can
hear the Swish of its silk petticoats,
as it flies through the sky.
Occasionally a woman wishes that
some Of the suffering nature has put on
the women could be divided with the
men. but when she remembers how a
man acts when he is sick, she decides
that the present arrangement is a wise
one.
An Atchison woman complains that
when any of her neighbors' children get
sick, they send for her to suggest a rem
edy, but that when they give a party.
they forget all about her, and invite
women who don't know whether a pOul-
tice is made of mustard or hOrseradish.
It has been discovered by the syrnpa-
thetic women of Atchison why a certain
old bachelor in town has such a sad
face" he ran away from home thirty
years ago, because he had a stepmOth-
er! When woman can find stepmoth-
er in any ones past life, that makes up
for all kinds Of blighted hopes.

DUE TO OUR TARIFF.
Great Falling Of in Export Business
of England.

London, Nov. 25-Right Hon. Charles
T. Richie, president of the Board Of
Trade, discussing the subject of British
trade before the Chamber of Commerce
last evening, said he regretted to have
to confess that the exports for the year
ended with October had decreased 2.6O0,-
600 pounds, chiefly through the altera-
ton of the United States tariff.
although" said Mr.. Richie, I'VE are
gradually making up the Ieeway, it is
impossible to help feeling of anxiety.
Although we ought not to be surprised
that we are being so rapidly overhauled
in exports by other nations, especially
by the United States and Germany, it
is a regrettable fact that while since
1891, the exports of the United States
have increased Is per cent, Great Brit
aims exports have decreased 5 per

DISLIKES COLORED TROOPS.
Mayor of Chattanooga Appeals to the
Secretary of War.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Nov. 25.-Mayor
Watkins has requested the secretary of
war to remove the Eighth immune regi-
ment from Chickamauga. In his request
Mayor Watkins says that on account OF
the conduct of the troops their presence
near the city is undesirable and prejudi-
cial to good order. He adds that the citi-
zens of Chattanooga would be pleased to
have white regiment stationed at the
park.
The mayors action is the result Of gen
eral sentiment here. The conflict with
the police, when a white man was killed,
the stoning of a train by the negro troops
because one of their number was elected
from a car reserved for ladies' and the
arrest of white recruits for failing to sa-
lutte a colored officer are among the OBJ
jectiOnable actions.
