UNLOADING ROTTEN BEEF.

Cleveland. o., Feb. 24.-Prof. S. F. wes-

cerning embalmed beef were abzo uteiy

members of his Cabinet. He paid his re-

had been retained in the C,sbinet despite
his incompetency on account of his contri-
buttons TO the campaign fund in 1896.
Secretary Long also came in for his share
of irony. He had the audacity. Mr.. John
son said, to repeat the Infamous charge
that those opposed to the ratification of
the Treaty with Spain were responsible
for the blood in the Philippines.
Secretary Bliss did not escape having,
said Mr.. johnson. made a speech there Sc
iiattering to the President that it was
nauseating.
The Presidents Boston Speech.
The Presidents speech at the Boston
banquet, Mr.. Johnson declared, was the
most disingenuous that ever fell from the
lips Of an Executive.
Apart from its piatitudes and profess
sions of virtue it was" he said, "a care
fully devised and studious misstatement of
facts"
He likened the President to Pecksniff,
asking why he did not call an extra session
and let Congress deal with the islands, if
he really intended SO to do. Mr.. Johnson
asserted that the Presidents claim that
at first he had no policy in the Philip
pines was false. He had acted from the
beginning along the lines of expansion
Imperialism, and greed He had listened
not to the dictates of his conscience but
TO his corrupt political creditors. He sur
rendered wholly to the selfish capitalists

election. and who l have no doubt" ="
cried Mr.. Johnson, have pledged them
selves to give him another"
These capitalists wish to seize parts of
China and anything else they can get in
the Orient. The President attempted TO
justify his change of front by saying that
Admiral Dewey wanted us to take tn .
Philippines. He cannot hide behind the
admiral's gold lace" said Johnson.
After Mr.. Johnson's half hour was up. a
fiery engagement took place between him
and several other Republicans. Mr.. Ham
ilton of Michigan leaped to his feet TO ask
that portion of the Presidents speech be
read.
Mr.. johnson demanded that it all be in
serted in the Record.
oh, the public has read it all before
this. :. replied Hamilton.
Yes, and damned him for it, vociferated
the Indianan.

Slow Trains,

Slow railroad trains are probably not
peculiar to any locality. The story of
the conductor who waited for the hen
to complete the dozen Of eggs for the
market is part Of the folklore of
widely diverse regions.
There used to run over a Vermont
road-and also, it may be remarked,
over Wisconsin road-what was
known as the 'huckleberry train," the
jest being that it was so slow that
passengers could jump off at the front
end Of the train and pick huckleberries
for awhile and then get on at the rear
end as it came up.

THE MYSTERY OF DREAMS
A Case In Which the Condolences
Were Remarkable.

On an occasion during the civil war
dreamed that I was standing beside
road when there came marching
along it strong column of prisoners,
with guards at intervals on the
tanks. I asked one of these guards
who the prisoners were and where
they had been captured. He informed
me that they had been taken in an en-
gagement with the enemy on the
day before and that there were 1900 of
them. I then asked some bystander
what day Of the month it was and was
told that it was such a day of certain
month"; some six weeks later than the
date of the dream. The whole dream
was extremely distinct, and it made a
to number Of my comrades within
the next few days and then thought Of
it no more.
Six weeks later, on the morning Of
the very day that had been mentioned
in the dream as the date when the
column Of prisoners had passed before
me, was on picket two miles distant
from the point where I had seemed to
be when saw them. 1t was soon aft
er breakfast, and I was standing by
the side Of the road at the fire talking
to the officer of the picket when an
aid to the commanding general came
riding down the road. He had been a
schoolfellow of our officers at West
Point and refined up when he recog-
nized his friend. He told us that he
had good news, that there had been a
sharp engagement with the enemy the
day before and that our people had
captured 1900 prisoners, who had
just passed the headquarters that
morning on their way to the rear.-St
Louis GlObe-DemOcrat.

They Brought Woe to France and
/ Changed the Map OF Europe.
The Princess Bismarck changed the
political history Of France unwit tingly,
and but for her the Franco-Prussian
war might never have been waged.
Bismarck was unfriendly to France,
but the Empress Eugene hoped with
her beauty to influence him so that the
little trouble with France and Ger
many might be smoothed over. She
therefore invited the German prince
and his wife to visit the court OF
France, and the Prince and Princess
Bismarck arrived in great state at the
Tuileries.
& That evening there was a grand re-
ception, and Eugene received the
guests in gown which made her SO
ravishingly lovely that even Prince
Bismarck, German, stolid and in love
with his wife, stood and gazed upon
her with admiration. And Eugene
was not slow to observe the effect of
her beauty upon him. She called him
to her side, and Bismarck came with
his wife upon his arm.
Now, the Princess Bismarck was tall
and gaunt and ugly. and her feet were
generous. AS she walked she showed
a great deal Of sole.
= While Bismarck stood talking with
Eugene an audible litter was heard
along the line of ladies. Bismarck,
who was quick as flash, followed the
glance of their eyes and saw them rest
upon the feet Of his wife. -
That settled the matter. The politi-
cal history Of France was altered from
that moment. +-s: r.

A TRAGEDY IN "A PICTURE,

His Snap Shot of a Drink That Killed
Two Men.
'aThe most remarkable snap shot pic
ture in the world is owned by friend
of mine in a town in Georgia. said an
enthusiastic amateur photographer.
tits story is extremely curious. 1t
seems that he went one day to a black
smith shop to get a shot at the men at
the forge. The smith was engaged on
a difficult piece Of ironwork and had
two helpers. Just behind them on a
shelf was a pint flask full of yellowish
white liquor, evidently the. corn wh;s-
ky for which the native Georgian has
a peculiar liking. 49,. ~ H.. -
las my friend was preparing to take
his picture one Of the helpers caught
sight Of the bottle and communicated
his discovery by dumb show TO his
companion. The smiths back was
turned at the moment, and the first
man reached stealthily for the prize.
while my friend, unnoticed in the COZ
ner, quickly aimed his camera. 1t was
a comical scene, and in his mind he
had already named the photo The
Stolen Drink
"The helper uncorked the flask and
took swift gulp, and his comrade
snatched it and did likewise. Then for
a brief, GREATNESS instant they looked
at each other, and as they did so their
foolish grin gave way to such a stare
Of questioning horror as 1 never saw
before upon a human face. l know
because it was then that the camera
clicked, and the picture is as clear as
crystal. The flask contained carbolic
acid. Within an hour both men were
dead.
when my friend took one print, he
broke the negative so as to make the
photograph absolutely unique. It
shows the forward end of the shop.
In the foreground is the anvil, with
the smith bending over his work. Be-
hind him are the two helpers, one still
holding the flask, looking at each 9TH
er. You can see tragedy in their eyes
as plain as print. 1t is a frightful and
dramatic tableau that could not be
duplicated by any sort of art."-New
