HIS MOTHER WAS ION TO" HIM.

An old woman, plainly dressed, went into the mems hat department of 9 big store the other day and said to a salesman: Here is 8. My son will come here tomorrow, and you will please fit him out with 8 g hat. His name is so-and-So." The salesman asked why the purchase of the hat was to be made in this strange way, and the old woman answered.: If I should give my son the money he would spend it for rum and get no hat' Then she departed and the next day the son appeared. He was tough man Of 38 to 40. He gave his name. and then he said: Say, how much did de old lady give ye fer de sky piece?" Two dollars the salesman answered. "Chee. is dat all? Say, she's gettin' mean in her old age, ain't she? We'll. trot out a dollar sky-piece an gimme de change, seeg' The sales man would net do this, however and the promising son had to take S2 hat. The first one that was shown him suit ed. He did not appear to be partic- ular. He clapped the new hat down over his ears. and swaggered out with the remark: You kin keep de old one, cully."- Philadelphia Record.

MrTILATED COINS.

Persons who are in the habit of using standard silver dollars as tar gets in pistol practice will find that their amusement will cost them dear, for the government has decided not to redeem any coin which has in any way been mutiiated. Heretofore it has been customary to redeem almost any kind of mutilated money, but the line ms been drawn much closer, and United States Assistant Treasurer C. \. Rosworth has annoGuccd that he had received strict orders not to ac- sept mutilated coin of any kind. This means that banks and storekeepers generally. as well as any one else who expects to have Uncle Sam redeem 7lleir money. should be careful to ac eept only that which is in the best et
 ondition. Of course. exception is made where a coin has become worr from use.

 Connecticut's vote for Bryan i'll lS9o was 56,733, in 1890, 14,125. In the same years the vote for governor was 56, ,523 and S1 ,306 In 1896 Bryan and Sargent boiled substantially the same vote;- in 1900 Bronson led Bryan by more than 1000. Hartford Times.
 The reason for the difference be tween the vote for Bronson and Bryan is the fight that was made against Mclean by men in his own party, and also by the popularity of Bronson' many republicans who refused to vote for the republican candidate, casting their vote for Brown. Thisv was the case, particularly in New Haven county where Bronson was so well known. In Waterbury he secured a majority of 40. while Mckinley had a majority of nearly 400. In 1896 Me I[inley had q majority of more than f;,206, S6 t}lat the difference in the vote of Bryan and. Bronson shows no fall ing away from the former, but it does show the popularity of Bronson. as well as the feelings of number of republicans who couldn't conscen- tiously vote for Mclean.

Banker Clews Is much pleased at the outcome of election and he closes his weekly letter with the following: "We stand almost upon the threshold of q new century, with the most brilliant national prospect before US. Our cur rency basis is put beyond question, trade balances are immensely in OUT favor, and our manufacturers are commanding the markets of the world. The education Of our people in sound financial and business principles dur ing the last four years is bearing, we may say, it's natural fruit. This pOpu- lar acquaintance with elemental prIn- ciplcs will beyond doubt prevent any recurrence of dangerous theories i'll the conduct of public affaivs. It is not an experiment. to give AIr Mckinley 2 second term, because We have all had tue gratifying experience Of good times during his first term, whereas, it would have been a very grave experiment to have elected tie opposing candidate, as 1t would have destroyed all con-
 huence. which is the essential founda- ton Cf prosperity i'll this or any other nation. lIr MckinIeys second term will not bc unlike the voyage of one of cur magnificent ocean steamships with well tested engines and the rudder rIpably and wisely steerrd; whereas, if NIT Bryan had been elected, l fear the ship of state would have been like that same magnificent floating palace in mid-ocean, machinery brok- vn down, Withoet 2 ruGIer. and at the mercy of the waves, drifting Heaven knows where.

be SO absolutely devoid of partisan or

ROBERTS TO END WAR
By Cutting Off Communications
With DelagOa Bay.

New York. June 1S.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
The opinion prevails at Cape Town
that the Delagoa Bay communications
viii be cut off speedily and the war
be brought to a close. There have been
many untrustworthy rumors about
secret expeditions towards Komatipoort
but there has been no definite informa-
ton that any movement of this kind
is in progress through Swaziland
Lord Roberts own plan of campaign
seems to involve complete separation
of the Free State and the TransvaaI
forces by the occupation of the rail-
way between Johannesburg and Lafngs
Mex, which will probably be captured
this week.
Press dispatches indicate that no ad-
vance has been made from Volksrust
toward Er,nelo. and that there has
been no change in the situation in the
Free State. General Rundle's division
is skirTnishing with the commandoes,
but only insignificant outpost affairs
are reported with some artillery firing
near Ficksburg.
The ministerial crisis at Cape Town
is believed to be at an end, and Sir
John Gordon Sprigg is reported to have
received assurances from Mr.. Schrein-
er's group which will enable him to

from the old veterans, points to the in
evitable conclusion that President Nc
Kinley and Governor Stanley and the
remainder of the Republican ticket will
carry the state by majorities running
well up into the thousands.
"You may say that SO far as I am
personally concerned I am more than
satisfied. The result of legislative NOM
nations in the past two months has
verified careful estimates made as long
as five months ago. While 1 have lost
in two or three districts upon which
relied, I have gained in five that were
not originally counted on, and I think
you will discover when the legislature
meets that l will have a good, sub
stantial working majority of the Re
publican members.
''This is all I care to say excepting
that my friends have been earnestly
requested to work for the election Of
the party nominees in their respective
districts without regard to their sena-
torial preferences. The success of the
party generally, is above and beyond all
of my personal ambitions"

URGED BY GOVERNOR.
Gives Out Statement Concerning
Semi-Centennial.


Governor Stanley urges the people of
Kansas to united effort to make the
semi-centennial exposition a success
The governor had the following state
ment prepared for publication:
1t viii require a united effort upon
the part Of the people of all sections to
interest the different counties and cities
in the enterprise. 1t win need general
support to give it something more than
a local significance, TO get the necessary
appropriation from the legislature, and
1t win need the earnest and enthusiastic
cooperation of our senators and mem
bers of congress, backed by the hearty
Endorsement Of their constituents, to Sc
cure a reasonable appropriation from
congress. Before we can get an appro-
priation from congress we must have
reasonable appropriation from our own
legislature. Before we can get one from
our own legislature, we must have gen
erous contributions from our towns and
cities, and especially generous ones
from the localities entering into cOmpe-
titlon for this exposition, If there is to
be any competition, and before we can
ask the different localities to enter the
competition or give their donations, we
must have a reasonable subscription Of
stock, and the amount fixed in the char
Ter. $4,000, is not unreasonable. This
subscription, however. viii not be secur-
ed by promiscuous talk. but can only be
secured by close organization and rea-
sonable effort.
THE board Of directors ought to be
called together at an early day perfect
their organization, and the directors in
the several congressional districts or
other suitable persons selected. should
thoroughly organize their district in an
effort to secure stock, and give the
movement definite shape and character
THE very first step in this enterprise
should be the enlistment Of the press of
