THE SPLIT IN CHICAGO.

The democratic party in the city of Chi
caso IS as badly divided as it is in Mon
tana. 1t is rent in twain by the Harrison
and Altgeld factions, and their respective
grievances will be carried into the ma
tional convention for final arbitration.
The Altgeld democrats belong to what
is termed the silver wing of the party,
while the Harrison men oppose the ratio
of is to 1, taking practically the same
ground on that question as the Anaconda
Standard, in maintaining that the ratio
should be regulated by the worlds ex-
changes.
An Overwhelming majority Of the demo-
Gratis in Chicago belong to the Harrison
wing, as was evidenced in the last CITY
election. Harrison was nominated for
. mayo and elected, though Altgeld, who
had been turned down by the party, ran
as an independent candidate. The Fol-
lowing Of the silver candidate was so
small as to excite apprehension as to the
ability of the Is to 1 men to hold the state
Of Illinois in Line, the Chicago democracy
being such a powerful factor in the poll
tics Of that state. There is apparently
no question as to the ability of the Harri-
son men to keep the Altgeld men out of
the national convention, and thereby
commit the democracy of the sucker state
to the proposed compromise platform
which will eliminate the free coinage
ratio. ta
More trouble has been brewing since
the city election and the Altgeld men are
manifestly uneasy over the situation. The
refusal of the Chicago democracy, under
the leadership of Harrison. to tender a
banquet to Bryan, if Altgeld was to be
seated at table, showed the depth of feel
ing so clearly that both sides have since
been preparing for war to the death. Alt
geld is the particular friend of Bryan.
Their views on public questions are sup-
posed to be in harmony from A to lizard,
The followers of the ex-governor count on
this. and are laying plans to get into the
national convention through the influence
of the Bryan men. They are protesting
against the right of the Harrison men to
sit in the national convention on the

A SHREWD LAWYERS TRICK,

New Orleans Times Democrat: THAT
reminds me- said a Chicago mar in a
reminiscent group last night, 'of an old
story that is good enough to repeat. Some
years ago three bookmakers put up at a
hotel at my home and handed a large
package of money to the chief clerk. They
told him that they would leave it with
MN every night, and were particular in
saying that 1t was to be delivered only in
the presence of all three. 1t was evident,
you see, that they didn't quite trust one
another. Well. a week or so rolled around
n one morning one of the trio came.
down rather early and called for the cash.
Without thinking of the conditions Of
delivery the clerk handed it over and the
bookmaker promptly skipped. His two
partners were furious and brought suit
against the hotel for $25, GOO, the amount
IN the bundle. A smart young lawyer
volunteered to take the defense, which
other attorneys regarded as hopeless.
When the trial came off he waited until
the ~bookmakers had submitted all their
evidence, and then arose with a large
bundle in his hand. we stand ready he
said, to fulfill the letter of agreement
YOU have just proved. This package con-
tains 1926. Geo in cash. AS soon as the three
owners apply for it together we are pre-
pared to turn it over OF course the
third man couldn't be produced, and the
case collapsed. The parcel really con-
tanned an old pair of pants.'

LIONS LOVE FOR MUSIC.

African News: While Rev. W. j. Davis
was living in Africa his little son John, a
boy of 4 years, eel too near to a chained
lion in a neighbours yard. 1t was called a
pet lion. but was SO wild n vicious that
no living thing was safe within the ra-
dius of its beat. The unsuspecting child
stumbled within it's reach. and the lion
instantly felled him to the ground and
set it's huge paw on his head. There was
great CONSERVATION among the bystand-
ers. but none We're able to deliver the
child. His governess, seeing the peril Of
the child. ran upstairs, seized an accor-
dion and hastened to a window which
looked upon the Ion. There, with a shout
to arrest it's attention, she began play
ing a tune. The lion at once released it's
prey. went the length of it's chain toward
it's charmer and stood in rapt atten-
ton. The boy, in the meantime, got
up and ran to his mother. He never
thought of crying till he entered the house
and saw how excited every one was:
then, quite out Of danger, he had a good
cry on his own account.

WOULD RATHER BE A PRESBY-

A Presbyterian father and mother who
are somewhat lax in their attendance
upon church services, sat in their sum-
mel cottage last Sunday afternoon and
overheard the following conversation be-
tween their 7-yea,-o!d SON, Hugh, and
his playmate, wao lives in the cottage
next door.
Il don't like Baptists," said Hugh.
The playmate's parents are BaDtists,
and he protested indignantly with:
"Ah, get out: You don't know what a
Baptist is"
II do SOY" retorted Hugh. "They stick
people under the water and pretend that
they are soaking their sins OUT
This was a poser, and seemed to admit
of no answer.
Gradually the conversation drifted to
two Irish maids whom Hugh's mother
employs.
"Ia Katie Rafferty, a Catholic asked
the playmate.

church every Sunday morning.

Chicago Journal: Opie cad some years

on the mechanical end of some paper, so
hard up was he, but in this. too, he failed.
There was nothing left for him but to
tramp He started on the road, as many
better and worse men have done before
him.
Tired and dust-stained he reached a
suburb of Cincinnati.s AS he was passing
a lumber yard he heard a man talking in
a loud and angry voice. Stopping, he
heard the individual deliver himself much
as follows:
"--. Rejected the whole car load
Of lumber because there was one Knot in
it! The =. l just wish I could write a
letter-one that would scorch the very
hair off his head the -"
Il can write; that is my business said
Read stepping up.
Good" said the lumberman. "You sit
right down and write a regular 'scorch-
err" And he explained more fully the
circumstance Of the case.
Read, although ne knew nothing of the
man to whom he was writing, dipped his
pen in gall" and wrote.
Then he read the letter, which was in
deed about as caustic a one as could have
been written.
The lumberman was delighted.
That's splendid" he exclaimed. "How
much Go you want?"
"In leave that to you," said Read. The
lumberman landed the author a SO bill
and Read was tided over his financial
difficulties.
