he is not the man for the President of

tinued discussion of the platform has
shown the miserable falacies urged by
Mr.. Bryan and his party. He has been

Ations. He has made several serious

A Curious Coincidence.

The letters 20 NJ might be supposed
to possess mysterious charm. as they
form the termination of many of the
most distinguished names in history.
No other letters of the alphabet will
furnish so remarkable a coincidence as
may be found in the following list
made up from ancient and modern
names: Aaron, Solomon, AgameEnon,
SoIon, Bion, Phocion, Bacon, Newton,
Johnson, Addison, Crichton. PorsOn,
Button, MontfaucOn, Tillotson, Fene-
Ion, Massillon, Warburton, Leighton,
Iytton. Walton, Anacreon, Ben JON
son, Milton, Byron. Thomson, Tenny-
son, AnsOn, Washington, Napoleon,
Wellington. etc.
\ Greek scholar has called attention
TO a very curious coincidence about the
name of Napoleon. If you take away
the first letter of his name, you have
"apoleOn:" take away the first letter of
that word, and you have ''poleon;" do
this successfully down to the last syl-
liable, and you have '1eon," "eon" and
on" Put these several words togeth-
er in this order, Napoleon on oleon leon
con apoleOn poleon, and you have a
Greek phrase the literal translation OF
which is Napoleon, being the lion of
peoples, went about destroying cities"

"Years ago in California; said q
western man, ''an acquaintance Of
mine was on n Stagecoach that a pair
of bandits went through. The II pas
sengers were all made to get out and
stand in n row, with their hands high
over their heads. One burly ruffian
stood guard over them with a double
barrelcd shotgun, while the other en-
gagged in the pleasing task of relieving
them of their Valuables and spare
cash
MY friend was nearest the man
with the shotgun. While the ceremO-
nies were in progress his nose began to
itch, and instinctively he started to
lower one hand TO scratch it. Hands
up, therer came the stern order, and
his hand went automatically back into

again he essayed the relieveful

Chicago, Nov. 23.-In reversing the
ruling of the lower court in regard TO
the proper heirshlp to insurance money
when husband and wife die simultan-

passed on a unique point. The ruling is
made in a case of involving the dis

of Frederick H. Marty, who, with his
Wife, periShed in a fire which re-
stroyed their home in 1898.
Relatives on both the male and fe-
male side of the house claimed the
money. The circuit court directed that
the money be paid to the wife's rela-

nature the weaker of the two died

two died first and directs that the in
