Warts and Helpless Doctors.

The doctors excuse their incompetence
by declaring that these nuisances disap-
pear as n child grows older. profess to
believe them. No one in tho household
remembers the historic case of Cromwell,
fortunately. His warts did not vanish.
You see them as plain as his nose on the
mask taken after death preserved at War
wick castle.
And there is Cicero. Not that he him
self had warts to speak Of, though have
seen that statement in u schoolbook re-
Gently 1t was an ancestor of his who won
distinction that way, astonishing the Ro-
man public with an excrescence on the tip
of his nose of trefoil shape. Wherefore
they called him Cicero (yetch), and the
nickname clung to the family.
1t is rather comforting than otherwise to
learn that the heroes and sages of old were
afflicted with warts. Even the "godlike
Creeks had them, as Lucian tells us in
passing, and their mothers applied to old
women for charms. The doctors were rs
helpless then as now, of course with more
excuse.-Pall Mall Gazette.

CUluIUdy, anu IN tlic IOtIt4II ||||
tion yesterday. The insurgents made
vain effort to get their forces into
line for another assault upon the lead
ers of the regular Republican organiZa-
ton. The stern rebuke administered
to the party wreckers last summer
seems to have had lasting effect upon
them. After beating the brush thor
oughly the kickers were unable to get
two representatives to stand as then
candidates, so that delegates TO the
state convention, w. S. Steele and ].
L. Allison. backed by the supporters OF
Senator Quay, had practically walk
over. The course of Senator James G,
Mitchell and Representative w. l.
Wilson in voting for Senator Quay's
reelection was warmly endorsed.
Senator Mitchell said: The prima-
ries resulted in a practically unani-
nous victory for the stalwart element
of the Republican party. The dele
gates supported by the people, who be-
lieve in majority rule and the uphold
ing of the Republican organization,
were elected by a practically unani-
nous vote. The insurgent element, al
ter securing the country for several
months for candidates, failed to ind
any one able to stem the tide. They
also endeavored to elect enough return
Judges to control the county commit
tee and reinstruct the delegates, but
this. too, proved a dismal failure. The
new county committee is comprised al
most entirely of organization Republic
cans. The election in this county Is
n severe rebuke to the kickers and
great victory for stalwart Republican
ism"
The Quay Republicans gained a vic
tory on Saturday at the organization Of
the new Republican committee of Leb-
anon county.
When the retiring secretary, w. ].
Noll, of Myerstown, called the new
committee to order the excitement
around the court house, where the
meeting was held, was intense, both
factions claiming the control of the
committee.
Harry d. Wise and William F. Rapp,
both supporters of Senator Quay, were
made temporary chairman and secre-
tary, respectively For permanent
chairman the Quay people named
Charles S. Havard, of the First ward,
and the anti-Quay people nominated
Charles z. Weiss, of Avon, nephew
of the insurgent state senator DR.. Sam
uel Weiss. The vote was; Havard. "a;
Weiss, 29. For secretary, ]. M. Shin
del, ex-district attorney, defeated the
anti-Quay candidate, C. Bert Funk, by
like vote, and when it came to treas
urer, H. a. Bowman, the Quay candi-
date, was named by acclamation.

The MisernbIe MOOrs.

The lives lived by the Moors are without
perhaps any exception the most precarious
and miserable that can be imagined. The
poor man is thrown into prison for sums
he never possessed and can never pay, the
rich TO be squeezed Of all he possesses,
while those only can hope to escape who
are members of families sufficiently pow
erful to arouse the fears of the local gov
ernor should he attempt extortion and not
sufficiently powerful to stir up the jealousy
and avarice of the sultan.
Even the governors of the provinces suf-
fer themselves as they make Others suffer,
for just as they squeeze the agriculturist
and the peasant so are they in turn squccz-
ed by the sultan and his yiziers, and,
should they fail by constant presents to
maintain good opinion at the court, they
can expect only imprisonment and often
death. .-Blackwood's Magazine.

MAKING BRASS INSTRUMENTS.
How Some of the Principal Parts Arc
Brought Into shape.


The bell of brass band instrument,
which is the big end, extending back TO
the bow or first bend, is made of a single
piece of metal which was originally fiat,
The pattern by which the metal is cut is
of the shape that bell would have If it
were slit straight down the side from end
TO end and then flattened out When the
fiat piece of metal from which a bell is to
be formed has been cut out by such a pat
tern, it is bent by hand over rod until
the edges meet. The seam Is brazed, and
the piece of metal now has its trumpet
shaped form, but with many little more or
less uneven places in the thin metal.
The bell is then placed upon a wooden
mandrel, form which fills the interior of
the bell from end to end and is of the size
and shape to which the bell is to be con-
formed. The inequalities in the surface
of the metal are then worked out of it by
hand with wooden hammers, the bell be-
ing repeatedly driven down upon the man
drel. When the bell has at last been
brought in this manner substantially to
its true form, it is finished and brought to
its perfect smoothness of surface in q spin
ming machine.
The bow of the instrument is made
sometimes in two pieces, sometimes in
one. All of the very largest instruments
have the bow in two pieces, which are cut
from fiat metal, like the bell piece. These
fiat pieces, whose outlines conform to the
curve of the bow, are struck into their
rounded form with dies, and the two
halves thus made are then joined. Many
instruments of all sizes are made with the
bow thus formed, but the costlier instru-
ments of sizes other than the very largest
are made with the bow of q single piece,
bent.
The bow has some taper, being larger at
the end where the bell is joined TO it than
at the other Tine bent bow in its original
form, as cut by the patterns, is a straight,
fiat strip of brass, a little narrower at one
end than ut the other in shape like that
of the face of long, slender keystone, so
that when it is rounded up into tube shape
it will have the required taper. This
piece is brought into tube shape and braz-
ed and wrought into form and finish, all
except the bending of it into bow shape,
in substantially the same manner as the
bell The slightly tapering but yet per
fectly wrought section of pipe is then filled
with molten lead. When the lead ha:
cooled, the section of pipe thus filled i:
laid across n wooden form shaped like the
lower part Of the letter u, into which it i:
gradually bent. As the pipe is bent dowr
more and more little wrinkles appear along
across the inner side. These wrinkles, a.
they appear, are beaten out by hand witt
very small light hammers, and when tho
bow has finally been brought down to it!
form the surface of the inner curve is al
smooth as that of the outer curve. Their
the lead is melted out of it, and the bow
is put through the processes of finishing

burned to the waters edge early to-
day while lying at the foot of Main
street. All the passengers escaped.
but several hundred bales of cotton
and considerable freight and baggage
was destroyed. The total loss is es-
timated at $4,000.
The fire started in the front cabin
about / a. M, when all the passengers
and most of the crew were asleep. They
were quickly awakened, and all gained
the shore in safety just in time to es-
cape the flames. Some Of them had
been awakened so suddenly that they
had not time to dress They wore
nothing but their. night dresses, and
were shoeless and hatless. A num-
Der of passengers on the opposite side
of the boat jumped into the water to
escape the flames. Fortunately the
water was not deep, and they waded
ashore.
The wind was blowing strong from
off shore, and for a time threatened
the buildings along the water front
with destruction from the flying en-
bers.
J. E. Massenagle, manager of the ST.
Louis and Tennessee River Packet
Company, said the steamer State of
Kansas belonged to the Memphis and
Cincinnati steamship line.

ger list was light; River men here
