~.,,.a K,n5. of British Colonies.

Great Britain has three generai classes of colonies. Those controliec entirely by the home government arc crown colonies, and their funds anu laws are managed by the admlnlstra- tiou. which does as it pleases. A sec ond class has what is called represen- tatiye government. In such the crown retains the veto power and controls the public officers. Those of the th1fo class have responsible government. ID such colonies the crown has no con troI over any public officer except that 1t appoints the governor and retains its veto on legislation

The Fortified Man,


 According to Billings, Mont, dis patch in the St. Louis Globe-Demoerat, John Johnson, known throughout the west as "Liver-Eating Johnson" :" a gov- ernment scout and spy, and who is be- lieyed to have killed more Indians than any other man, either living or dead. that ever rode the arid wastes of the west, reached this city recently en route to the soldiers home at Los An geles. He recognized the ossifed man found in the Missouri river, near Fort Banton about year ago, as being the petrifcation of a man he knew at Fort Benton. The petrification looks as nat ural as life. It will go east from here. and then to the Paris exposition.

Marshall 0. Waggoner of Toledo, Ohio, the infdel whose conversion to Christianity was recently announced, has burned his magnificent library, consisting of writings of inidels. The ashes of the books are in the bottom of the furnace of the Memorial United Brethren church of Toledo, to which he privately consigned them.

 The girdRr's t|harIn.

The story goes that the Sidar pos- sesses a charm which comes from 1n- dia, and which brings him luck wher- ever he tours. That be is one of the luckiest men in Europe goes without saying. Lord Kitchener received a telegram of congratulation from the queen on the fact that Mahdism has now been given it's final blow. The sidar replied, Your most gracious majesty, the man who does not accomplish his aim is failure. I have lived to overthrow Mahdism, and The nineteen years have struggled fos its abolition have now been crowned with success. My mission is accom- nlished.'

Mans LawIsss Ingenuity Is Giving ths
 Courts Added Trouble.

Courts Added Trouble.
 Under the laws of the land as they exist at present the theft of lamp is larceny; 1t may be a Roman lamp or Greek lamp, an oil lamp or an electric lamp. Whether it constitutes grand larceny or petit larceny will in certain states of the union depend not upon it's age or newness, but upon its mar ket value. On the other hand there are great number of modern crimes which could not have been committed in ancient days because the instru- ments for their perpetration did not exist. They are the outcome of mod ern civilization and they require new legislation. The tapping of a tele- graph wire is a modern form of high- way robbery. In the old days the method was to waylay the courier on the roaG and to rob him of his purse or of his message. The formula of the modern highwayman is not Stand and deliver" but simply Deliver" And he may get a message from the light ming courier which may be wortA more to him than well-flled purse. But there is nothing to be gained by indis- criminate tapping. It is some special message or information that the thief Is looking for, possibly for its effect on the stock market or on other buSi. ness ventures, but the use of ciphey codes renders the tapping of telegraph uirnc Of 1itfIn avail even in time of war, unless the code as well as the message has been stolen. For the tap- ping of power or light lines the mod ern highwayman comes in out of the rain. He can do his business better indoors by attacking the electric me- ter, confusing it's calculations and thus getting more current than he pays for. Such at least seems to be the impiica- tian of recent statutes.

An International Compl,cat,on,

From Pagny-sur- -Moselle comes news of an international complication which was happily resolved without the spilling Of blood. When the train which was bound for Metz drew into the station whence it should pass into German control, 1t was found that ont of the carriages contained, conspieu, ously pasted, caricAture of the Kaiser, painted with an insulting le. gend. The German guard refused to have anything to do with such a train. Now you cannot find a train, and to immure it in fortress is poor satis- faction. But you can cut off it's en- zine. And that the German guard threatened to do If the insult were not wiped out. It was wiped out, not by blood, but by hot water applied by q earriage-e!eaner.

The frosser Record, which is published
at the home OF Mr.. Rich, the republican
nominee for the legislature, makes an is.
sue which local papers hoped to avoid.
Mr.. Rich is an old and respected citizen
of the county but the Record mentions
his connections in various ways with the
Northern Pacific railroad. This Is un.
kind, for in this campaign the fusion
forces will endeavor to avoid as far as
possible all personalities. 1t lie nothing
against Mr.. Rich that he has been con-
tractor, and successful one. on the
Northern Pacific, and it would be nothing
against him If he had been conductor on
the road; and it would not be to his per.
sonal discredit if he tried to divide the
county, for his interests naturally tend
that way. But why his home paper, and
one to which Mr.. Rich has been liberal
contributor, should bring these matters
into discussion is past all understanding.
Some one has said "Deliver US from our
fool friends"

able fruit and vegetable exhibit at the
coming state fair. This appeal should
not go unheeded. Every grower in the
county as a matter of pride should pre-.
pare to fill some space in the ex-
hibition hall with products from his

enough to more than compensate for loss
OF time and trouble. The reputation Of
the county is also at stake. We, who
live here, know what our county can
produce, but the hundreds of strangers

son to mistrust US. Farmers, give the

The Washington Post an independent
republican paper in comparing the demo-
cratic and republican nominees for vice
president says: The democrats have
made an eminently respectable nomina-
ton for the vice-presidency. Mr.. Steven
son filled that high office with credit dur.
ing Claveland's second term. He was
an exceptionally able presiding officer OF
the senate. Possessing tact and dignity,
he won and held the admiration OF the
members Of that body. who, upon his re-
tirement, united in testimonial of thei r
appreciation OF his honorable services.
His qualifications for the office, therefore
are established. In this respect the dem.
ocrats are more fortunate than the repub-
Leans, for Mr. Roosevelt's most ardent
champions do not profess a belief in his
fitness for this particular Office, and he
himself prior to the Philadelphia conven
ton, frankly avowed that he was insult.

often remarked that ''the mantle of
his predecessor" had fallen upon the
right shoulders.
Those who watched his incessant
labors closely were not surprised that
Rome transferred him to a higher sta
ton seven years ago. But crisis hav-
ing occurred in the affairs of the Arch
diocese of St. Louis, Mo-, whose ven
cradle metropolitan was forced to re-
sign after fifty years incumbency,
Pope Leo XIII. looked around for some
efficient pastor to take charge of that
jurisdiction, and the choice fell upon
Wheeling's bishop, who was transfer
red to st. Louis June Is, 1898. Thus
the diocese lost it's second prelate, al
though not, as before, by the cold hand
of death. The regret over his de-
parture was tempered by the knowl-
edge that he had been promoted-and
justly soto the second oldest metro
politan province of the country, which
he still rules with wisdom and zeal.

on eac., recurring anniversary of his
death, a commemorative mass is ceI-
ebrated.
At the time of Bishop Whelan's
death in 1874, he was the senior bish-
op of the Baltimore province, and as
such he presided at the funeral obse-
quies of his friend, Archbishop
Spalding, of Baltimore, February II,
1872. Having been identified, in a
great measure, with its history from
early manhood. it was but natural
that when an insidious disease pros
trated him, twenty-four years after
his arrival in Wheeling. his dying
eyes should turn towards Baltimore,
where the seal of baptism, the oil of
confirmation, and the episcopal mitre,
had been placed upon his brow. There
at an abode of charity, st. Agnes
Hospital, where the poor and the des-
titute surrounded him, Bishop Whelan
yielded forth his soul on July It'll,
1874, and passed to his reward.

During the comparatively brief space
