A Pretty Old Horse.
Is Americas Greatest Medicine

Rev. Frank Gunsaulus at one time be.
lieved that his parish work would be made
much easier for him if he possessed horse
on which to ride from place to place, SO he
determined to purchase one. Now what
Rev. Mr. Gunsauus didn't know about
horse would fill large volume, and as might
have been expected he fell into the hands Of
the philistines. He saw nothing wrong with
the horse, however. He had told the man Of
whom he bought it that he was not used to
riding, and so wanted quiet animal, and in
this respect, at least, the horse fully came
up to the requirements. One day Rev. Mr.
Gunsaulus' father came to visit him, and
the, horse was proudly shown to him. Gun
sauus pere looked the horse over carefully.

MUCH on looks, is he?"
No. answered Frank, "but then, you
know, father, the Saviour rode horse that
was anything but handsome"

you've got a treasure. III bet this is the

T<HE farther the season advances

<HE farther the season advances
i the stronger grows the demand
for new clothes. Much as the
mowers come forth in the springtime
comes this annual desire for the latest
and most fashionable in the way of
feminine garments-and doubt not
but that the masculine gender have
much the same desire. We are ever
ready to follow the beautiful example
of Nature when she breaks out in all
the Bplendor Of her green freshness.
It is this freshness of nature that seems
to bring discredit upon our winter
garments, and causes the feminine
heart to wish for the lovely toilettes of
the spring season.
Consequently the quest for the new
gown, the new hat, the new jacket and

ugh to give you Y. fair idea Of Just
few of the hats that are being worn
and shown in the shops of Paris during
these early exposition days.
The great fair was not completed on
the opening day; the carpenters were
still busy about the unfinished build
sngs; exhibitors were hurrying here
and there in an effort to place their
displays in tie best possible condition
at the earliest possible moment, but
to the feminine visitor Paris need lose
none of its interest because Of this
lack of completion of the exposition. If
they will only do as l have to do
and assure you it is a very pleasant
occupation for any woman-and accept
the sights offered by the great shops
in lieu of those which are not yet
ready at the exposition grounds, they
will be we'll repaid for their time. As
for the men folks-well, they should
take delight in the enjoyment of the
ladies.

MINED As TO FACTS.

Washington is laughing over state
ment given out by the treasury bureau
of statistictss which innocently but
fatty gives the lie to a recent state
ment of the war department. Some
time ago r. P. Porter was employed
to revise the Cuban tariff, and among
other changes reduced the duty on
railway materials Is per cent. At the
moment when he was preparing this
reduction Mr. Porter was making ar
ranoements to resign from the gov
eminent service and enter the employ
OF the Van Horn syndicate, which had
obtained control Of all the railways in
Cuba. Soon after, he did so. At the
same time the war department made a
statement eXcusing the reduction for
the following reasons sit has been
apparent to all acquainted with the
working Of the Cuban tariff That the
rate of duty upon the schedule for ma
chinery and railway materials and
supplies, nancy, AZ pe' cenI au
valorem, is too high. The effect OF this
has been to stop all importation OF
such articles, and the revenue from
these schedules has been extremely
small" Now the bureau of statistics
issues statement OF Cuban imports
for the past ten months, which shows
that in that time there was imported
into Cuba $727,062 worth OF specified
railway articles and $4,lG8,0Oo Of ma
chinery, about one fourth of which was
for use on the railways. The duty on
the total railway supplies was about
100000. Next year it will be only
100000 on the same quantity. Mean
while Mr.. Porter is receiving a fancy
salary from the syndicates he served
so well.

NEWS NOTES.

AS a result of a quarrel over some
chickens which refused to lay eggs
residents of Cotfeyville, KAN, have
become involved in a remarkable law
suit. Jason Brophy, the plaintiff, AYERS
that his neighbor, 'Needham Weeks,
presented him ten hens and two rOOs-
tiers in February last last, and assured
him that the hens would lay upward
of sixty eggs a week. Br0phy fed and
cared for the chickens for ten weeks,
"devoting most of his time to them, to
the detriment of other interests" but
the hens failed to lay any eggs. The
plaintiff alleges that he was unlaWfully
deceived by the defendant, and seeks
to recover 500 damages for his wasted
labor and for his expenditures fer
chick 1 feed.
William Kerr of Hastings, Neb,, is a
man of mature years and banker. He
is, indeed, the Oldest banker in the
state, and has been accounted one of
the shrewdest. He has made money,
and people have taken in the habit of
saving that whenever he turned loose
a dollar he knew that it would bring
another dollar back with it. Never
theless, the other day a.sleek stranger
struck Hastings with gold brick
one of the old-fashioned sort made of
brass with bits of gold inserted to be
Clipped off for analysis-and after an
hours clever talk sold it to Banker
Kerr for Sl3, 600 in cold cash. The very
mention of gold now-gold standard,
gold cure, or gold brick--is sufficient
to make Mr.. Kerr hopping mad.

From hundreds Of feathered threats.

Are kissed by the red tinted rays.
And one rose up from his couch Of sleep
And looked nj the rising sun.

To him was days work begun.

And his heart with Joy did swell,
And he went out with glad, light heart

X-RAY BURNED HIM.
#, Gaines Citizen Carried to Savannah for
Treatment.
W. i. L.

Fl. Gaines Citizen Carried 10 Savannah 1oF
Treatment.
The Atlanta Journal prints the fol-
lowing special:
Savannah physicians are very much
interested in a case being now treated
at the St. Joseph infrmary by Dr. H.
r. baltimore. The patient is Mr.. Luke
Cohen resident OF Fort Gaines, Ga,
who vas injured some months ago al
his home. He was shot by q c0mpanion
and suffered so greatly from the effects
of the bullet, which could not be To-
Gated or removed by ordinary methods,
that he was carried to Atlanta TO be
treated.
There it was dacided to locate the
bullet with the aid of the X-raY ma
chine. This modern method of treat
inc such cases was used with rather
disastrous effect Through careless
ness or from some other cause the ma
chine was allowed TO get too close to
the young mans skin and the result
was a deep burn in his back.
The injury was very painful and pen
etrated to great depth. The patient
did not get any better and IL was de-
cided to bring him to Savannah. He
arrived here two or three weeks AGO
and DR.. baltimore has been attending
him since his arrival.
The burn has proven very hard tc
cure. The cuticle was burned away
over large space, and it was decided
bv Dr. baltimore to try and graft il
back. That process is now under way
The inner skin of eggs are used in this
treatment. and it is said to be going
ahead very successfully. This adds
new danger to the use OF A-ray ma
chimes.

The Farmers We're at Work All Day Sunday

The farmers Of Oklahoma have been
IN the midst OF tremendous wheat
harvest during the past week, says
dispatch from Perry. The self-binders
have been running almost day and
night and Sunday hundreds of ma
chimes were running, reapiug the gold
en- grain. While the preachers, women
and small children were attending the
churches the men and boys were rush
ing the binders, cutting the heavy
wheat while the sun was shining,
Wheat men say that no such crop
was ever before raised in the west as
is being harvested in Oklahoma,
southern Kansas and the Indian Terri
tory and Texas. The acreage sown was
unprecedented, and the quality Of the
grain was never better. Oklahoma
alone will harvest more than 10000
600 bushels. The recent upward ten
dency in the price of wheat has given
new hope to the wheat growers. Be-
sides wheat the Oat, corn, cotton and
Vegetable crops were never mor@FDrom-

COST OF CUBAN GOVERNMENT.
Senator Bacon Makes Some Interesting and
Suggestive Remarks.

Senator Bacon made some very in
teresting and suggestive remarks in
the senate a few days ago when he re-
ferred to the cost OF carrying on the
Cuban government, says the Columbus
Enquirer Sun.
In round numbers, he says, the Gu
ban receipts for 1899 amounted to SIG,
100000 and the expenditures to S14,-
100000. Deducting the cost of the mu-
inequalities, 81, $50, 900, and treating the
items of expenditures for justice and
public instruction, which a'e Jumped
$4,000, as for education alone, and
deducting this also and the postal eX-
penses, Mir. Bacon makes the eXpen-
diture for the current cost of govern
ing the island about Il,000,0 900
He compares this with expenditures
OF several Of the states. These states,
all but one or two, are much larger in
much more highly organized govern
ments. The result OF the comparison is
shown in the following table OF the
current duuGdl expenditures IOf CuDd
and the states named:
Cuba $Il,OOO,000; Georgia 1900;
Missouri $1,767, l37; Massachusetts
So, 500, 000; Indiana 81 $50, 700; Arkan-
saS $550000; Minnesota $780, 00 !;
Mississippi S749, 900; Kentucky 81. 49,
600; Tennessee -, $4,000; Michigan
$685. 900.
The government of each one of these
states ought seemingly to cost more
than our temporary and incomplete
government OF Cuba. And yet Cuba
costs from four to twenty times as
much as states having larger pOpula-
tons and more complete governments.
Commenting upon the senator's re-
marks, the New York World has the
following:
"Deducting also $l,270,00O expended
in Cuba for barracks and quarters,
which Mr.. Bacon should have done,
and S3,8l0,030 for sanitation and Gus
toms service, the annual current eX-
penses Of Cuba amount to about Sc, 000,-
600. If we add to the table the cost OF
education the expenditures OF Cuba eX-
coed by from 81 900, 900 to about 81 CO.,,
600 those Of any of the state govern
ments mentioned except that of Mas
sachussetts, which eXpends &5,50O,O00
year for education.

THE SANE OLD STORY.
No Accommodations for Negroes Attending

The New York correspondent Of the
Atlanta Journal, writing Of the repub-

1.-THE southern negro has no friends
in the north, even among his party
leaders. The color line is arou8ing the
greatest feeling at Philadelphia, and
several Of the republican leaders who
came in from the city last night were
talking over the situation at the Fifth

any signs leading that way.
