WHAT NERO PLAYED.

New York Sun: 1t was noon iii Rome
high noon. and Nero had sent his ennis
saries forth to various parts of the city
prepared to carry out his incendiary or
dens.
When he had seen the last one depar,
h adjourned to the lofty summit of his
favorite tower, taking with him his
S~tradivarius and a numerous collection
Of old bottles and hot birds, for at this
time Nero had resigned from the w. c.
T. t.. and was even opposed to 1t in his
mild way.
AT > o'clock. standard time. the EN-
peror went out upon the barbican and
cast his eagle eye rou the horizon.
Nothing save the blue hills beyond the
Campagna marked the sky line, and the
blue Italian armament rested like a
great arc of fiawless sapphire above the
capital. A frown rested beneath the
golden crown that the emperor had put
on, but he said nothing to those about
him.
a short retirement for drinks he
returned to the barbican and once more
swept that eagle eye around he horizon.
Finally here and there arose little clouds
of smoke, as if the Roman populace il
their humble homes We're beginning to
prepare for their evening meal. But
Nero knew what those lines of smoke
meant. and he smiled with the seraphiC
sweetness that had for the past ten years
been so characteristic of his smiles.
He retired from the barbican. and in a
moment was again upon it, this time
with his fiddle in his hand-his we'll be
loved fiddle. the fiddle that Nero has
made famous. Seating himself and be.
ginning to tune the instrument, he called
fer his music, for Nero had never been
able to learn to play without his notes.
What shall l bring to you, Sire?' ask
ed a waiting vassal.
"Cm-er-er.' replied Nero. as he rubbed
his chin unctuously and closed his eye
with a smile. Il guess 'There'll Be a Hot
Time in the Old Town Tonight will be
an appropriate selection"
And Nero fddled.

THE "CORPSE' SAT UP.

John Tapscott of Dallas county, Texas,
tells the following story of the death of a
woman who was a cousin of his mother,
then living in 1lfracomb, England, which
occurred many years ago. Mr.. Tapscott
said: "When the lady in question was
buried there was upon her finger a valu-
able diamond ring. The sexton who Of
ficlated at her funeral was aware of this
fact, and it excited his cupidity. He rea-
sGned that he was poor, the lady was
dead, and the valuable jewel could be of
no possible use to her down in the cold,
dark tomb. but could he possess it the
cash it would bring would buy many
comforts for his wife and little ones. He
resolved to disinter the body and steal
the ring. About the hour of midnight
following the burial he stealthily ex-
humcd the lady, opened her coffin by the
pale glimmer Of the waning moon, and,
lifting the white, dainty hand, attempted
to take off the beautiful ring. 1t fitted
so tight. however, that he could not re-
move it, and, desiring to get through
with his grewsome task as quickly as
possible, he took out his pocket knife,
intending to amputate the finger which
refused to give up it's Jewel.
mo sooner had he made an incision
than the supposed dead woman suddenly
sat BOLT upright in her co n. The start

fled with the speed of a cannon-ball
train.
"You see the woman was in a catalep-
tic state, and supposed to be dead. The
moment the sections knife entered the
flesh her nervous system responded with
the rapidity of biography, the circula-
ton started up and she began to breathe.
The cool night air revived her enough
for her to get out of the coffin and walk
to her home. a mile or more away. Ring
ing the door bell. her husband looked
down from a second-story window, and
was startled at seeing a ghostly, white
robed figure standing On the porch be-
low. He was too frightened to come
down. but, after repeatedly ringing the
door bell the door was opened by the SER
want. After the CONSERVATION Of the mo-
ment was over a most happy reunion fol-
lowed between the woman and hel
household. The poor sexton was not only
not prosecuted for grave robbing, but the
grateful m presented him with the
coveted ring, while her husband gave
him a large sum Of money. His greedy
desire for the ring had been the Means
of her rescue. She lived several vars and
bore several children before she died in
fact."-Fort Worth, Tex, Correspond
ence of st. Louis Globe Democrat.

JUDGE McHAT7OW ON THE ISSUES.

Hon. John j. Mediation. democratic
national committeeman for Montana, has
placed his party in this state in line with
the policy of the st. Louis conference.
which places silver in the background
and makes opposition to the trusts the
leading issue for 1900. In a conlmunica-
ton to the Chicago Times-Herald he
says:
A declaration against trusts will be one
of the main planks, if not the main plank,
in the next democratic platform.
In conceding the possibility that a
declaration. against trusts may be the
| main plank, Judge Mediation admits that
the free coinage of silver may not be he
| main plank. The main plank will, of
course. define the paramount issue, and
it necessarily follows-in the opinion OF
the national committeeman for Montana
that silver may not be the paramount
issue. as it was in 1896. The judge bears
siderable ability and force. devoting
most Of his well written letter to that
question. He says:
The democrats of Montana will at the
next national election be more ardent, if
anything. in their opposition to trusts
than they We're in their support OF free
coinage at the last election.
If this be true, and their ardor is not
based wholly or their appetite for Office
as it was last fall. the democrats of this
state will make it mighty interesting for
the A~malgamated Copper trust. Just i'm
agine the Anaconda Standard urging the
dominant wing of the democracy in this
city to turn out at the polls and crush
the trusts. Just imagine the democratic
state convention passing a resolution
for passing a law that permitted the
trusts to invade our state, Just imagine
the democratic party in Montana making
a campaign without money furnished by
members of that organization who be-
long to the trusts and who are high ir
their councils. The reader is advised tc
imagine these things, for he will never
witness them in real life. Referring t.
Montana Judge Mediation again says:
It has suffered much by the decline O
silver. and yet with all it has Offered
great opportunity for happy homes ant
the enjoyment of the rights of manhood
and American citizenship. Recently tn,
trust octopus has stake in, and thes
are now threatened.
While happy homes, and other de
sirable things which are largely depend
ent upon the prosperity of the country
are possible without free coinage, evel
these are threatened by the trust octo
pus-according to the leading spokesman
OF the Montana democracy. He candid,
acknowledges that the trust has talke
in, and is doing business in Montana
Notwithstanding the elegant opportunit,
afforded the late democratic legislator
to keep it out.
It will indeed be a pleasant diversion
to see the democratic party in Montan;
in 1900 pointing with pride to it's anti
trust 90 record in the legislature, AND re
fusing to accept either votes or lone
from the prominent democrats who ar
identified with the trusts which they pro
pose to condemn.

DORA BROCK Has A BABY.
General Clay Has Asked Her to Name
the Boy After Him.

Lexington, KY, Oct. ga boy was
born to Dora Clay Brock at Pinckard,
in Woodford county, today. After be
ing divorced by the famous abolition
ist-duelist, Gen. Cassius Marcellus
Clay, the girl married Riley Brock, a
soldier, and now lives with him in the
little home the old general gave her at
Pinckard, and the child is the result
of this latter union.
Gen. Clay still loves the girl, and has
requested that the child be named after
him, and the request Will most likely
be granted.
1t will be remembered that Gen. Clay
married the girl when she was a do
nestle employed in his mansion, White
hail." at the age of 13, and that fncom-
paubifity caused a separation. The
general, however, retained a childlike
affection for her, and frequently sent
for her to visit him after they had been
separated She strongly sympathizes
