Queer Lady Salisbury.

1t is related Of the late Lady
Salisbury that she was bored by
the obligations of society and was
in the habit of turning away her
head when she extended her hand
in greeting, as if the person whom
she was welcoming was not worthy
of look. 1t was in recognition
of this popularity of hers that an
attache of one of the foreign en-
bassies accredited to the court of
st. James trained his poodle to sit
on his hind legs, and ON mention
of Lady Salisbury's name to turn
his head over his shoulder to the
side while it extended its paw.

The BOYS Are Mean.

From the following in the Guth-
rie Capitol. it seems that the young
men of that town are very parsl-
monious set and don't even give
the young ladies the benefit of the
free first nights, which great many
cheap shows offer to draw crowd:
Since the night of the queens
ball the young ladies of Guthrie
have become exceedingly mad and
propose to show the young
men of Guthrie that they must
have a change of heart or not be
entertained this winter. Last week
the cooking club held meeting at
the home of one of the members
and the charming young men were
not there to eat and be entertained.
The entire evening was spent in
consultation and resolutions were
adopted. The different members
of the club had their say.
One remarked:
Il am tired of entertaining the
boys at home and then stay at home
theatre nights"
Another said: 81 am tired of
having my pa buy coal and then
have to ask him to take me to the
theatre and come after me- !"
Another said: I'VE girls give
a party somewhere and the boys
have just enough energy to come
and go home alone, causing US to
return home by ourselves. | am
tired of such way we are treated. !"
Another CALCULATED: i move
we adopt resolutions and see if we
can't learn the boys something" !"
All right" echoed the others.
A committee was appointed and
the following resolutions were
adopted:
Whereas, The young ladies of
Guthrie have always entertained
the young men at home and at our
cooking clubs meets, and as it is a
fact that we have to stay home
from the theater AMI go alone to
dances, therefore be it.
Resolved, That we refuse to
entertain these gentlemen in the
future unless they show change
of heart and escort us to the thea
ter and other entertainments in the
future.

California's prestige as the banne,
gold-bearing state of the Union hn
been taken away. Its scepter as thu
queen of auriferous production ha,
passed into the hands of a rival com
monwcalth.
The contest between California
and Colorado has been officially de
cided by the figures of the director
of the mint. These credit the Cen
tennial state with one-third of tho
entire gold output of the United
States and so per cent more thar
California turned out in the las
twelve months.
In 1898 the gold product of Colo
rado was $23, 3,195, 300, while that OF
California was but ST., ,631 900. The
respective yields of the two states il
1897 were $40, ,1O4, 200 for Colorado
and only S14,61S,3OO for California
In the early days California yield.

but invention intensified and dcvel-
oped the methods of extracting min.
eral wealth of late years, and she
fell behind. Although many Cali
fornia mines are steadily maintain
ing their output, nearly all the new
strikes have been made in Colorado
From the newer mines are extracted
a vast quantity of low-grade ores
and these ores are being discovered
in greater abundance in Colorado
than on the Pacific coast.

The Next Population Center.

Census experts estimate that the
center of population will be found
next year to be in Indiana, close to
the Illinois line, at point not far
removed from the town of Vincen-
ncs. The last census showed the
center to be between Col
umbus, Ind, and Cincinnati. The
increase in the population of Geor-
gia, Texas, the Indian Territory, Ok
,lahoma, New Mexico and Arizona
during the last ten years has been
sufficient, it is thought, to offset any
increase in the Northwest and to
possibly pull the center somewhat to
the south of the 1890 parallel. The
wealth center is thought to be in the
neighborhood of Sandusky, Ohio.

SELMA
Negroes Looking for Buried Treasure
Cause Family Much Annoyance

Selma, May S.-(specal)-For the past
week nearly every night Mr.. T. B. Creagh's
family, who occupy the Smith house, on
Broad street, have thought they heard
somebody prowlng around their premises
and beating on the ground, but they have
been unable to catch any one.
Yesterday morning the mystery was
solved, or at least a plausible theory dis
covered. Out in the yard extending from
one of the outhouses to the other was
found where a trench had been dug about
two feet wide and fully that deep. the earth
having been carefully replaced. The the
DRY is that there exists an impression
among the negroes that Mr.. Smith. who
died several years ago, left some money
buried In the yard, and 1t was for the pur-
pose of discovering the hidden treasure
that the sounding and digging was done.
That. no money was found it is easy to
surmise, and 1t is hoped that the soundings
and diggings will now cease.
This morning fire broke out in the cot
tage belonging to Professor Purcell of the
Selma colored university, which is situated
outside the city limits, and completely de-
stroyed. There was no fire protection for
the house, It being more than a half mile
from any water plug. The loss will amount
to about $1,000

.RBICHCTAG DOES
NOT FAVOR BILL
Meat Inspection Not Taken Kind
Iy to by the Germans.
THE REPORT IS HOSTILE
To the Interests of the United States,
and for That Reason the Gov
eminent Will Probably Re-
fuse Its Sanction.

Berlin, May SIT is authoritatively stated
that the committee of the reichstag to
which was referred the meat inspection
bill, which was substantially agreed upon
between the imperial cabinet and the
United States ambassador here, Mr.. An
drew D. White, has reported against the
measure and in favor of bill SO hostile to
American interests that the government
will probably refuse to sanction 1t.
The most unfortunate circumstance as re-
CARDS American interests in the matter of
the meat inspection bill was the fact that
there were insistent declarations in the
United States that embamed and poisonous
meat had been supplied to the troops in
Cuba. Representatives of the German land
owning interests loudly declared that IL the
Americans sent poisonous meats to their
own soldiers, they would certainly send 1t
to the Germans.
A bad result is that the bill, as reported
back, provides for examination and inspee-
tion of American meats impossible to en-
