Hanna Managers Believe They Can
BE Paid TO Abstain From Voting,
A greater insult to the agricuturists
of Ohio was never perpetrated than
the plan OF the Hanna managers to
carry the election of this year by pay
ing the farmers to stay away from the
polls.
The scheme to buy up the farmers
as II they we're 30 many hogs or sheep
was recently exposed in information
inadvertently impaired to an old anti
Hanna Republican by one OF the die
tator's lieutenants In Paulding county,
who was In Columbus receiving his in
structions in the matter from the state
committee. This henohman OF Hanna
declared that III was zSseless for. the,
Democrats to make sp1 lzaes. ameng
the farmers, as whatever Influence
they had would be quickly counteract-
ed with the use Of money. He assert
ed that 1t would be an easy thing to
induce the farmers to refrain from
going to the polls. Many Of them, he
said, could be purchased very cheaply.
This was especially true. he stated,
with regard to the large German pop
ulation In the great northwest, many
of whom, he said. could be bought up
as cheaply as so cents and 81 head.
The program from now on Of the
Hanna managers, he stated, would be
to hire the veters to stay away from
the polls. He stated that an enormous
fund would be devoted for the purpose,
and that legitimate campaign methods
would be useless In opposition to the
mode Of handling the people which
the Hanna managers had arranged

A bloodhound ut Bucharest Picks Up .
Bit of Evidence.
A certain well-known inhabitant OF
Bucharest is the director Of a manu-
factory which, being situated In the
outskirts Of the city. he goes to early
each morning returning late in the att
ernoon. The director was some few
years ago married to the daughter OF
a rich merchant. He also possesses a
splendid bloodhound, which had become
very clever in finding and bringing any
lost object of his master or mistress.
Little did the director, when teaching
his dog this trick, fancy to what pur-
pose he was doing 1t. Among his in
innate friends he reckoned a certain
banker, and visiting him one after
noon, accompanied by his dog, he no.
ticed 1t sniff around the. waste paper
basket, and then bring out from among
the scraps of paper a green silk hand
kerchief, which seemed strangely ia
miliar to him. He seized it and peck
eted it without the banker noticing.
and soon after took his leave. The
lady was packed of to her parents and
proceedings for a divorce commenced.
She ultimately confessed to having
given the handkerchief as a memento,
which the banker had thrown into his
waste paper basket to be found by the
intelligent bloodhound.

twenty years paying the penalty of his
folly in carrying stamps. Everybody
knows who he is. Years ago he re-
ceived an order from the department
which d%ispleased him very much. He
knew to whom he owed. it, and he sat
himself down that same night and ex-
pressed himself frankly on paper to
the man he blamed for the obnoxious
order. He had a stamp, and so he sent
the letter off in that nights mail. If
he hadn't had a stamp he would not
have mailed the letter till morning, and
if he had kept it till morning he'd never
have sent it at all, and he would not
have paid the penalty of 'sassing' the
department. Don't send the young
man a stamp box. The officer I've been
telling you about says that his expe-
rience taught him eve to carry
stamps, but the trouble about the wis
dom experience brings is that it usu-
ally comes too late to be Of any use.
Don't encourage the young man II

large room, the harem, brilliantly
lighted by electricity, with a number of
beautiful women. with penciled eye
;brows and red-stained finger nails,
lightly clad and unveiled, sitting on
richly covered divans. Their costumes
were of costly fabrics, and they were
covered with diamonds and pearls. In
the middle Of the room was a bower of
roses for the bride, and on all sides
were rare Oriental carpets and en-
broideries. After waiting an hour in
the harem the bride appeared, walked
to the bower and sat down in 1t. After
another long wait the bridegroom
came. He went directly to the bower,
raised the veil Of the bride, who was
beautiful and whom he saw for the
first time, placed a magnificent dia-
mond necklace yer her head and led
her away. After this ceremony a pro-
cession formed in the garden and
marched around it to the sound of mu-
sic. Then the bridegroom's best man
came out and made a speech on hi. be-
half, which was replied to by one
chosen for the purpose. After this the
crowd began to dispense, and all was
over."-Paris Herald.

negative electricity in the earth. Thus
lightning is generated. On the days
when our experiments We're conducted
the air in the neighborhood was over
charged with Observation-Disclosures Of
another kind than that pervading Bar
bara's system. Hence the violent con-
cussions when the two dissimilar
charges collided. The fact that objects
fly toward Barbara lis explained by the
principle that one electric body causes
others to be oppositely charged by
induction. That accomplished, the
positive and negative electric forces
attract each other and "go for each
other" But that does not explain why
these manifestations occur in a certain
locality and do not show in another.
1t puzzled me greatly, but an investi-
cation of the scene of action explained
all. I found that the Hoffman home
stead is built on, sandy ground, full Of
CLASSY ingredients, and therefore al
most a complete in~sulator, preventing
electric discharges from escaping.
