A Lost King.

In olden times. when European kings
were as plentiful as Kentucky colonies
are today. it was not an exceptional
occurrence for king to disappear and
never been heard of again. In ancient
times. however, the people have been
more careful of their kings.
So when King Sebastian of Portugal
disappeared in battle July 20, 1913.
while fighting the Moors at Alcazar.
there was great comnaotion. The Moors
surrendered to the Portuguese body
said to be that of the king, but it was
rumored that the Moors had the king
alive in custody.
The surrendered body was buried
with royal honors at Belem, but the
faithful Portuguese persisted in wait
ing for the return of their king. Long
after he would have died in the course
of nature his countrymen. longingly
! awaited his coming.
Even up to this day the legend Of the
return of King Sebastian is believed by
many, and on stormy nights credulou'
Portuguese citizens will wrap thei
cloaks about them and go outside ant
watch the storm, thinking that thu
king may appear In a cloud Of fir
again to rule.

What Is n sleepers

Here is definition which is as diff
ficult to read rapidly as "Peter Piper
picked peck of picked peppers" and
yet is more sensible. In fact. it is an
actual statement of facts. as you will
find if you read it slowly:
A sleeper is one who sleeps. A Sleep
err is that in which sleeper sleeps. A
sleeper is that on which the sleeper
runs while the sleeper sleeps. There
fore while the sleeper sleeps in the
sleeper the sleeper carries the sleeper
over the sleeper under the sleeper until
the sleeper which carries the sleeper

TRAINING HORSES.
Preparing the New Animals For the
Circus Ring.

Circus Ring.
All through the winter circus men
are training the animals for new tricks
for the next summer. The winter is
by no means an idle time. Training
horses for the ring is interesting work.
The first thing done is to put the new
horses in the stables with the old cir
Gus horses to get them used to their
new company, and a queer thing no
ticed is that the old horses are jealous
of the newcomers.
A great deal of patience and time is
required to train the horses to run
around the ring. They are blindfolded
and taught to run around the ring in a
circle. The natural tendency of the
horse is to run straight, and it is a
hard thing for him to learn. A sys-
TEN of checks and lines makes the
training easier than formerly.
The horse is an observant animal
and apt to do what he sees another
, horse do, SO when the blindfold is re
moved he is placed alongside an old
trained horse, and the man who is to
| ride the new animal does tricks with
the old ones, then tries them on the
pupil. A good, intelligent horse soon
learns and actually helps his rider.
Horses are very sensitive to applause
and with that stimulus will do twice
as much work as without. They arc
/ just as likely to lose their heads as hui
man performers and have to be care
fully watched. A well trained rine
horse is easily worth $1,000, and rid
ers who are stars usually own theil
horses. The most careful attention !!
given these animals. Before each ac
their backs are rubbed with resin
which has to be washed off afterward

dressed by w, S. Dalton.
A meeting of the socialist labor
party was held in Westville last even
ing. The hall was well filed. The
principal speaker was w. S. Dalton OF
Seattle, Wash, who said in part: There
Is but one issue in this campaign, On
I that issue the republican and demo-
cratic parties stand alike. That issue
is: Shall the people of the United States
own the machinery of production, the
railroads, mills, mines. factories, and
trusts, or shall the capitalist class own
these things? The socialist labor party
ten years ago and to-day stands for
collective ownership of the machinery
of production" 1t is organizing the
working classes, the rs per cent. of the
population. into political party to
elect their own lawmakers and trans
fer the ownership of this machinery
from the capitalist class and vest 1t in
the government.
| All other issues are but shams The
capitalist class owns and controls all
political parties except the socialist la
/ Dor party, and aims to divide and
/ conquer the working class.
| Private ownership of capital spells
wage slavery for over 75 per cent. of
the people to-day, with a steady In
crease from the ranks from the small
business men whom the trust is bank
rupting every day. Poverty, prostitu-
ton, crime. and misery are the natural
| fruits of capitalism The working
class, which produces all wealth, pos
sesses to-day less than per cent. of
that wealth. The downfall of capital
ism is as necessary to the freedom and
happiness of the American people to-
day as was the downfall Of British rule
125 years ago. The socialist labor party
proclaims a revolution at the ballot
box in the interest of the producers of
wealth. 1t calls out the working class
to vote for Maloney and Renmel and
the collective ownership of the tools of
production.
Bryans Smashing the trust" theory
Is as silly as to advocate the destruc-
ton of the railroads and labor saving
machines. The republican party'S
plan of continuing the trusts In the
hands of the present owners proves that
1t is as much an enemy of the working
class as is the democratic party. The
political battles between the old parties
are only ouarrels over the division of
the wealth plundered from the wage
workers.
There Is but one place where the
wage worker can strike with effect;
that is at the ballot box. There is but
one working class party-the socialist
labor party.
