COWS of mine had straddled a cornstalk
duringlthe night, and it had grown so
fast they were unable to get off of the
perch, until it was so high they were
afraid to jump. Not until cyclone
came along and bent the stalk near
the earth could they slide off without
breaking any ribs. In the meantime
had to climb those stalks every day to
do the milking"
Farmer Silas Culberry Smith came
in just then and confirmed the story.

From the Savannah News
Our war in the Philippines is one
for humanity. it is said. An American
soldier was killed in Mindanao by ma
tives. In return a company of the
command to which the murdered SOL
der belonged raided the village and
killed eighty-five natives. Under
other circumstances this might be call
ed revenge, but since it is our own af-
fair it must be set down to the score of
humanity"

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, July 90
From ePd to end the streets of San
Juan we're q labyrinth of glittering
Spanish flags in honor of St. Jagers,
the patron saint of Spain. Banners
and bunting suspended from house to
house covered the thoroughfares, and
balconies were richly decorated. There
was no attempt whatever to displa 2

OF the fourth of July was totally eclips-
ed. Then the citizens were unable to
raise dollar for the purpose of demon

in carrying through a program which
must have cost 5000. Six native
houses displayed the stars and the
stripes. On the other hand
it is estimated that no fewer than
$500 Spanish flags were fiug to the
breeze.

COMEDIES NEW YORK.

According to the New YORK cores
pondent of the st. Louis Post-Dispatch
Lemuel Quigg, chairman OF the repuo-
lican county committee, has stated
that his party cannot carry Greater
New York for Mckinley. 1--WE did 1T
fopr wears ago." Mr.. Quigg said, ''but
we cannot repeat it. Tammany Hall
now has 10000 place holders and is
spending slOO,O0O,C00 of the public's
money annually. All this patronage
will null for Bryan. My impression Is
that the gold democrats will vote ion
BRYAN. But there are not so many OF
them as there were four years ago, In
New York most of them have been
pulled over and are either working
with Tammany or accepting the argu-
ments of Hill
And Mr.. Quigg is not the only one
who sees probable eclipse ahead OF
the republican party in New York.
Mr.. Elliott Danforth, one OF the best
informed politicians in that state, made
the statement on last Wednesday IN
New York city that Mr.. Mckinley and
Mr.. Roosevelt will be two greatly
surprised men the day after the cleo
ton. He says that she gold democrats
of New York are going to vote for Mr.
BRYAN. and that the Germans are 60

the democrats have an eXcellentI
chance of carrying the state one
thing is certain, and that is that the
republicans are not as confident OF CAR
