to know that Turkey Foot rock, which
was taken from the resting place where

where the celebrated Indian breathed
his last, Whether this rock is any
thing more than an ordinary rock,
makes little difference, because around
II has been woven legend which is
pretty and pleasing whether true or
false, and the old rock should be per-
mitted to retain its place SO long as
time lasts. 1t arrived in Maumee last
week on its return from visit to The

Mr.. Bryan says "lhe Republicans
will declare against trusts but will not
harm them" Such talk given at a
public meeting where no one is given
chance to refute the charge, may fill

correspond with the facts, when it is
known that the only national statute
against trusts was the work of the Re
publican party.

Whnt the Prisoner Snid.

A celebrated judge was once trying a
case where the accused could only I'M
derstand Irish, and an interpreter was
accordingly sworn. The prisoner said
something to the interpreter, and the
latter replied.
"What does he say?" demanded the
judge.
Nothing, my lord"
Elbow dare you say that when we all
heard him? Come, sir what was it?''
"My lord" said the interpreter, be-
ginning to tremble, sit had nothing to
do with the case. !"
eff you don't answer, I'll commit
you, sir. Now. what did he say?"
"Well, my lord, you'll IL excuse me,
but he said, Who's that ould woman
with the red bed curtain round her sit
ting up there?' .
At which everybody present roared.
"And what did you say?'' said the
judge, looking little uncomfortable
II said: Whist, ye spalpeen! That s

Indian Territory Triples.

Anything which has basis of alcohol
Is IN demand in the Indian Territory.
Intoxication ia craved. and the stomach
Of the Indian Territory drinker does not
quarrel with the form in which it comes.
Wood alcohol. accounted poison In most
parts of the country, is consumed in
considerable quantities. The peddlers
buy it in Oklahoma, dilute it with wa
ter and sell 1t by the pint on this side
of the line.
One way Of bringing whisky into the
Indian Territory is to have a barrel
with false bottom. Freighting across
the border is common. There are in
terror stores which draw their stocks Of
goods from cities and railroad points
outside. A barrel with false bottom
is device by which storekeeper may
ship in a considerable quantity Of
whisky, while the contents, to all or
binary examination, seem to be coal oil
or some other Legitimate article.
Ingenuity in evasion of the territorial
prohibition probably reached its high
est form of development when one Of
the dealers got up good imitation Of
an egg. Each egg was filled with
whisky. The eggs were shipped here
openly in cases. They were sold for %
cents each to those who knew the se-
oret. The purchaser Clipped a hole in
the artificial she'll and found in each
egg what was enough for a moderate
drink. The eggshell was of plaster of
paris in a fair :. itation. st Louis

In this country for a large amount Of
our product. A few years ago there was
comparatively little general demand for
imported cocoa, but during 1888 We sold
largely in this country, and our Ameri-
can orders this year promise to exceed
the total business of last year. It Is
the working people, we believe, who
are buying the largest share Of our pro-

and when times are good in the United

somewhat from the wage earners of
Holland. Here it seems that very few
save their money, but in Holland this
condition is just the reverse. Our peo-

the income there IS always something
laid by for rainy day. However, the
Americans are good customers and there
is only the best of feeling existing be-
tween the people Of Holland and the
United States.
'Oh, yes, indeed, we were glad to see the
Spaniards whipped. 1 think no country
