May Soon Settle the Strike.

Buffalo, N. Y, May 1O-While the
strike situation remains unchanged
there is still hope for a speedy settle
ment Of the trouble. The grain SHOW
elers are obdurate, in that they still
persist that nothing will satisfy them
except the abolition of contractors and
middlemen. They assert that they can
furnish sufficient bonds to guarantee
that they themselves can handle all the
grain which is transported by the
Lake Carriers association.
It is learned that the Lake Carriers
association and Contractor Corners
are willing to make concessions of a
radical kind to the scoopers-even
more liberal than any yet announced.

A syndicate Of stockholders have pur-

nonball river, and will start three
ranches and stock each one with $500
sheep. The stockmen through the

price ranged from so cents to $1.06, it
was a wonderfully remunerative crop.

THE SACK TRICK.
How Professional Entertainers Per.
form This Clever Illusion.

form This Clever Illusion.
Those who find interest in performing
clever tricks at drawing room entertain
ments will find the sack trick simple to
perform, yet very effective.
You propose to tic q lady or gentleman
in q sack with q piece of ribbon round the
neck, so that it would be impossible for
the person to got gut.
Furthermore, you say that you will seal
the ribbon, lock tho lady in u box and
give the key to a gentleman in the audi.
encc.
Tho trick is to make another person,
who sits on the box previous to q curtain
being drawn over, change places precisely
with the one sealed up in the sack without
breaking the seal or damaging the sack.
10 do this you must first obtain ~ long
sack (about 8 feet 6 inches long,, with Il
somewhat deep hem ut the top. Twenty
six inches of ribbon should be procured
and, cutting it in half, sew each piece to
the ends of a piece of elastic tho same width
as tho ribbon, but only six inches long.
Having done this, insert the ribbon and
elastic into the hem of the sack, having
the elastic exactly opposite tho slit in the
hem.
Upon II Of the performers getting into
the sack, pull the mouth of the sack level
with the neck and, drawing tho ribbon in
the hem tight to tho neck, tie a few knots
and have them sealed. 1t seems impossi-
bic for the person in tho sack to get out
without either breaking the ribbon or
damaging the sack, but, owing to the
elastic stretching, tho person in tho sack
simply has to use alittle caro- in stretching
the elastic in the hem and SO opening tho
mouth Of the sack is quickly able to step
out.
Tho one sitting on the box has a dupli-
cate key, so that directly tho curtain is
pulled over the box is unlocked and tho
sack trick performed. The new occupant
Of the sack takes his place in tho box,
which is again locked. The trick is equal
ly effective without the use of the box.

The Child's Questions.

Born with every child is q disposition to
ask questions, which, If allowed to be fully
gratified, makes the youngster a perfect
nuisance. The scolding or impatient par
Ont never succeeds in putting down the
questioning. A wise and patient one may
do SO by answering in a judicious man
per. 1t is not wise to answer the same
question over and over again, for that
tends to stunt tho, growth of a child's
memory. Questions from q child should
never be allowed to intrude upon q con-
yersation of it's elders.

FIRST VOYAGE ROUND THE WORLD.

Magellan's Triumplal Progress and
It's Fatal Termination.
With an expedition %splcndidly furnished
by Emperor Charles V, Magellcn set sail
on Aug 10, 1919. He crossed tho Atlantic,
touched at the bay of Rio de Janeiro,
made his way southwark, rcprcssed sav.
agely a dangerous mutiny, and on Oct. 81
entered the strait which bears his name.
On Nov. 90 he passed out of it with only
three of his five vessels left and found
himself and his rejoicing crews in tho
Pacific. He felt that he had succeeded,
but no had miscalulated the vast extent Of
the new ocean and, sailing on for days
and days, in some fashion missed the
countless islands Of the Pacific and did
not see land until he reached tho little
group which he called tho Ladrones be-
cause the inhabitants stole n boat from
him. There he fingered a short time, CT
Their at ROta or in tho curious harbor Of
Guahan.
From the Ladrones, which were discov-
cred March 8, 1881, the weary voyage was
continued until a new archipelago was
reached, on the fifth Sunday of Lent.
Gradually tho magnitude Of this new dis
covery became apparent, and Magellan
named the new group in honor of st. Lag
arus, on whose day it was discovered.
They landed on Mindanao, made their
way TO Cebu, flattercd themselves that
they had converted and subdued the in
habitants, and then, becoming involved
in Il tribal war, Magellan was killed, and
his chosen successor, Serrano, was left be-
hind to death and torture.
Two ships escaped, mi going east, and
one, the Victoria, under Elcano, which
left Timor oil Feb. II, sailing still to the
westward. On Sept. 6, 1922, after many
hardships and perils, tho Victoria reached
Spain, and q great voyage, the first which
circled the globe, second only to that of
Columbus in conception and beyond all in
the daring displayed and the distance tray
ersed, came to IN end.-Harper's Maya

BE Square In Politics.

This is the way the editor OF the
Harrisonyille Democrat goes for
some of the small caliber politicians
in his bailiwick:
We know man who believes lie
is warm thing in politics. But he
isn't. The trouble with some men
who wish TO be real smooth politi
clans, they conceive that success is
attained by insincerity and misrepre-
sentation. It pays to be honest. 1t
pays to be straightforward. It pay
to have q standard of morals in poll
tics It pays to appreciate your real
friends. 1t don't pay to go back on
your friends. It don't pay to lie
about them Some day he may learn
that in politics as in everything else
it pays to be square and honest. The
day for the sleek political plotter has
passed. His occupation is gone.
Common sense is the best key to
political success, and there is no
common sence which gives counte.
nance to double dealing
The men who swell up and whis-
per in each others ears and talk
mysteriously and look as though
they had large secrets on their
minds often over estimate the width
aud length and breadth of the
swath they cut. The best politician
10 the man who acts natural; who 10
frank and honest enough to trust
his friends. We have ne use for O
political trickster. We love to speak
and mention the good qualities of
the real man. Ysu can play the DR..
Jeksll and Mr.. Hyde act in politics
short time, but your csarseness
will soon be discovered. Be honest
in politics.

MKINLEY:HAs a CUBAN POLICY.
The Island to BE Annexed Without
Coercion. -

Coercion.
Washington, D. c., March 30
It has cropped out here that Presi-
dent Mckinley has decided TO annex
Cuba.
This statement is made upon the
best authority. While the pretense
is made that no force will be used
to put this policy in execution, the
plan outlined is a most ingenious
one and will have precisely the same
effect as wouIdEthe use of men and
guns to bring the island under the
folds Of stars and stripes.
The presidents plan is to win the
co lsent of the Cubans to annexation
and 10 co this his scheme is to put
into operation at once. The first
step in this matter Of Cuban con-
sent is in the organization OF the
Cuban police. Gomez, who has been
won over to the idea of annexation,
is to assist in this organization, and
will be made Commander of the
Island Constabulary, or Civil Guard.
This guard will have control Of
the election machinery when the
people come to vote on annexation,
and will be relied upon to assist in
fba dosirfd rasTIk
The other important step will be
enrolment of natives who are to
vote on the question. This registra
ton list will be made up by native
Cubans who are known to be annex
ationists.
a property and educational quail
fcation will be established as a
basis of suffrage.
In brief, the whole government of
the island is to be SO organized that
when the day TO vote on annexation
comes there will not be the slight
est chance of the failure of annexa-
ton.
This plan, the presidents sup
porters claim, is not coercion, but
merely the introduction of Amerl-
can political methods into the set
Element of the Cuban problem.
