Some Confusion.

1t was reported yesterday that the
name of Adolph Keppeler, first duty SER
of Company F. Sergeant Keppeler was
among the returning heroes and his
friends of course noted the omission,
which was no doubt caused by the fact
of name very similar, which appeared

AN AMUSING GAME
It In Douhly Intcresting Because the
Boys Can Make Each of Its
Various Parts.

Here is game that you can play in
:he house, out on the porch, or on the
ground.
Take piece of board or plank 10 by
IL inches. Plane it OH the sides and
edges and cut away the corners all
around one size, as shown in the draw
ing. Call that side the top and the
other side the bottom. See whether the
side which you choose for the bottom
is even so that the board will set we'll
on the floor. If the board is warped,
turn the hollow side down, so that the
edges and rot the middle will rest Gil
the floor. If the board seems twisted q
little, so that it will not set well, which
ever side is down, nail 4 block to one
side of the board at each corner. This
is good way. even when the side of the
board is straight, for then the board

part and make it nice and smooth inside
with the knife. Now you bore two
holes in the sides of the shell (you can
easily see the proper place and direc'
ton on the accompanying illustration)
and insert straw in each hole, the
straws to be about two and one-halt
inches long. Then take two hazelEuts
and make two holes in each, the holes
being in right angle with each other
and reaching the center of the kernel.
Now put the straws coming out of the
walnut in the top hole of the hazeinut,
and in the side hole YOU introduce a
short piece of straw. Use beeswax OF
sealing wax for stopping all leaks,
Now your sprinkler is ready for use
and all you have to do is to place the
walnut on its pointed end on the cork
Of an empty bottle and pour water in
the walnut basin. The water will then
run through the stravs and thereby
cause the little sprinkler to revolve

board. Make the lower end of the
standard fit closely and trim around
the upper end, as shown in the drawing

tom.
Next make the ring shown by the
drawing. The easiest way is to take
piece OF rope little longer than the
distance around the ring. Cut away
some of the strands at each end so that
you can overlap the ends and make the
same thickness as elsewhere. WraE
and tie these overlapping ends with
string. Then wrap the entire ring
with strips of cloth.
In playing, throw the ring over the
standard, as horse shoes or quoits are
thrown. If two people play, use twt
boards and several rings.
These soft rings make no noise ane
are not apt to do harm where they hit

NATURAL FLY TRAP.
The Dionen, u Little Carolina Plant
IL Far More Reliable Than
Sticky FIypaper.

Flvtraps are well known in the ami
mcl kingdom to everyone who has eyes
or. at least, who uses them.
The delicate web of the spider anc
the deeply cut and broad mouth of the
swallow at once suggest themselves.
But that vegetable should have an en-
ouisitely constructed and perfect appa.
ratus of this kind is very remarkable
when it is remembered that plants dit
fer markedly from animals in regard tt
their food. For, while animals live or
organic substances--that is, on plant:
or other aninals-yegetables live on in
organic substances.
1t is, then. unlikely that fly coult
supply a plant with food, and yet !
more perfect fly trap than the leaves
of the dionea cannot be imagined.
This little plant is a native OF the
sandy bogs in the pine barrens of Caro-
lima. 1t grows to a height OF from si'
to twelve inches, producing loose heac
of large whitish flowers, not unlike the
flower of the lady's smock.
The flower stalk rises from rosettt
of yeIlowish green leaves, spreading IN
the rround. Each leaf is divided by !:
deep incision into two portions, the
lower being broadly winged foo1
stalk, and the upper the blade or trns
leaf itself.
The upper portion is the hytrap-
the most curious part Of the plant
and demands careful description.
1t is roundish and divided into two
equalparts by strong mid-rib. The mar
gins are fringed with row OF strore
spiny bristles. so that it may be lillenet

bases. The leaf is Il little hollow or

G0LDITE BIMErALLIsrs
many advocates Of the Single stana.
ard Are Ashaned to Fight
Out In the Omen.

Many goldites are ashamed to come
out into the open and acknowledge
that they are gollites. These will tell
you that they are "bimetallists," but
are opposed to the Stree and unlimited
coinage of silver" and dwell on the
word UNLIMITED" as if they meant a
Hood of silver that would cover the
country three feet deep. They seem
to forget. perhaps never knew, that
all the silver in sight or that was ever
dug out of the ground during the ages
since silver was first discovered could
be put in room the cube of which is
66 feet. So that unlimited" means the
willingness Of the government to coin
all the silver that will be brought to
the mints for coinage. But it will be
observed that these ''goldite bimetal.
lists" do not object at all to the "un-
limited" coinage of gold. No matter
how much is produced, no matter what
quantity is in sight-the more the
merrier' is their doctrine. And it il
a good doctrine, too. But it should be
applied to silver equally with gold, in
order to secure genuine bimetallism
The person who favors the "unlimited''
coinage Of gold and the Limited" coin.
age of silver is not bimetallist. There
can be no true bimetallism with free
coinage Of one metal and a limited
coinage Of the other. The word bi.
nletallism as used by monetary writer's
means exactly the same as the double
standard. That is it means q money
standard consisting of two metals,
used ut a certain ratio to each other,
both freely coined, and each full legal
tender after it is coined. In his testi-
mony before the royal commission Of
England, gwen March 4, 1887, H. II.
Gibbs, then director and ex-governor
Of the Bank of England, defined bi.
metallism as follows: IAN open
mint to which every man may bring
either gold or silver to be coined. "a
fixed ratio which the gold and silver
coins are to each other. 3-The enact
ment that the money so coined shall
be legal tender to any amount, at the
option of the payer. When anyone
says he is a b.metallist, and doesn't
accept this definition, he can set him
self down as golditc; for that is just
what he is.-1llinois State Register.

GOLD AT A PREMIUM.
How the Case Would Stand II 4 Colo
lite COnte ntiOn Were
Allowed.

Suppose that gold should 60 to
premium in case of the restoration Of
silver to free coinage at the mints ut
the existing ratio. While this is not by
any means result that will be con-
ceded, it would simply mean a pre-
MUM over silver. Gold could be bought
with products more easily than now
by one who had gold debts to pay, for
it's command over these would, it is
conceded, be greatly lessened if this
great nation should shift it's money de-
mand from gold to silver. In fact,
this is what ails the whole goldbug
array. They realize the gold ring
would be broken when Uncle Sam
takes hand in smashing it. Remem-
Der that gold at a premium would
then mean it was really at a discount
with its present inflated value. 1t
would still form the bulk of our bank
reserves, liberating that much other
money. But the wisest heads every
where believe that country doing
one-fourth of the worlds business
could, by open mints, exercise the same
dominating, equalizing, steadying in
fluence on the relative value OF both
metals that France did for 70 years.
During all this time she coined
them at a ratio of fifteen and one-half to
one, kept both in circulation within her
borders, and at substantial parity the
world over. Sometimes one, and some
times the other, would dominate in her
currency. Up to the gold discoveries
she absorbed more silver than gold, and
gave off more gold. Later she took in
more gold, and gave off more silver to
India. But all the time she coined
both and kept both in her circulation.
This is admitted by every intelligent
man. What she did easily then we can
surely do now. For we can now fur.
nish a much greater relative demand
for money as compared with the rest
OF the world than she did then. Be-
sides. the world is only too willing to
follow our lead in maintaining the
party of the metals and stable prices

THE BOYS SUMMER SWIM.

Nov, of with your garments. boys; quick!

N" waiting about in fear on the bank:
A run, and a spring, and clean, clever

appear:
If managed Alright. you win no .splashing

A shake Of your head. and your eyes will
be free
From water, and now you start of for
your swim: .a.

one may agree
The best with your fancy, your style or
your whim.
You're blown? Then turn over and rest
while you float; -t
1t only wants pluck. and is easy to do.
That's right; you're as safe and secure as
boat,
You see. there's no need to get into q
stew.
Now make for the bank. Chamber out. and
prepare.
To try some new trick, such as diving for
eggs,
Or turning somersault c!everly ere
The water you reach or else swim with
tied legs.
When tired of all, and before you grow
chill,
Come out (you may easily stay In toe
long)
And rub yourself down with hearty good
will.
You can't scrub too hard. and you can't
scrub too strong.
Then jump in your Clothes and be Oft for q
run,
And do not pull up TIL you glow in each
limb:
Then, boys, believe me, when that run shall
be done,
You'll find yourself better by far for youl
