Our Butter Goes Abroaa.

Washington, Oct 11.-S'Americans
will have good butter. consequently
there is a better market here for first
class, gilt edge American creamery
butter than in any other country in
the world" said Secretary Wilson
when he was shown the criticism OF
Prof. Drummond, the Scotch agri-
culturist.
''At the same time the department
of agriculture has made al special
study OF how best to make shipments
of dairy products, as well a. other
information regarding the require
ments OF the American dairyman.
we have sent butter to France and
Germany, and last year, shipments
were successfully madeto many ports
of the China seas. This shows that
We have not been entirely asleep.
However, the American has learn
ed what tirst-class dairy products
are and he is willing to pay better
price for them than can be obt49iHet
i'll Europe. There Is no more good
| butter made in this country than i,
needed here

PREACHER QUELLED DISORDER
Rowdy Attempted to Break Up the Ser
vices and the Minister Shot Hin.

Lake Charles, La, Oct. 1.-THE
Rev. r. =. Howell OF this place is
lust now the hero of the men and the
admired of the ladies since he has
demonstrated the fact that even the
most rigorous training does not
teach a man that he must tamely
submit to being shot to death by
any casual shoOtist who may take it
into his head that he wants to shed
the blood of some one.
Sunday night, at the Methodist
church, near the Loxley and Martin
dam, Dr. Howell was conducting SER
vices at the camp meeting and was
in the midst of his discourse when a
rowdy attempted to break up the
services.
He fourished a revolver in the
church and frightened the worship
pers, particularly the women, almost
out of their wits.
DR.. Howell decended from the pull
pit and stepping outside the church
secured a shot gun which had been
brought along for protection by a
timid old man in the congregation.
With this in hand, but hidden be-
hind him, the minister returned to
the church and ordered the disorder
ly one to vacate.
Instead of doing so the latter rails
ed his gun to fire when DR.. Howell
let 90 the contents of a barrel of the
shotgun into the calf OF the mans
leg. The disorder ceased at once
and DR.. Howell resumed his discourse
where it had been broken off, while
the fainting women were resuscitated
outside.

GREAT DEMOCRATIC
GAIN IN CHICAGO
Estimate Based on Registration Gives
Bryan Forty Thousand Majority.

Bryan Forty Thousand Majority.
Chicago, Oct. 17.-Democrats are
50 elated over Chicago's magnificent
registration that they can hardly
get down to work. The figures-4O5,-
353, against II total OF $50, 245 in
1S96-means a big majority for Bry-
an.
Yesterday saw 116.913 names
added to the list. Two things stand
out clearly-the republicans must
have profited enormously by coloni-
zation III 1896, for the lodging house
wards show, if anything, a decrease
in registration, and certain republic
can wards shoWa marked increase in
registration because they are in the
most rapidly growing suburbs Of
Chicago, and have been filing up
with a democratic population.
yesterdays results show that the
country is alive to the issues of the
present campaign" said Robert r.
Burke, secretary of the county demo-
cratic committee, to-day.
at sounds success for Bryan and
democracy. At 4:3O o'clock in the
afternoon we received reports from
every precinct, which showed that a
total of A, 900 names had been reg
istered at that time. The remaining
~, II names were added between
that time and the closing of the
places of registry. These names are
those OF men who support Bryan
and democracy i'll this campaign.
We will meet the state outside OF
Cook county with majority of 40
900 for our ticket"
This is the first time Mr. Burke has
made definite statement as to the
outcome i'll Chicago and Cook coun-
ty. 1t was democratic registration

DEMOCRATS EAGER TO
CALL REPUBLICAN BLUFFS
Betting Men Inclined to Pick Mckinley
as Winner Find Plenty of
Bryan Money in Sight

Omaha, Neb., Oct. IA marked
feature OF the present campaign has
been the rapidity with which bets are
being offered and taken, but still
more marked is the steady fall in the
amount of odds offered against the
election of Bryan or against his car
rying certain of the doubtful states.
Two weeks ago pool sellers and
board of trade operators We're offer
ing three, three and one half and
even four to one that Mckinley
would be elected These odds have
steadily declined until two to one has
been reached and still plenty OF
Bryan money is in sight. catching up
every such offer made 1t is predict
ed by local betting men that i'll an
other week nothing but even money
will be offered and as Il consequence
of this feeling republican money is
not so prominent as formerly.
Recognizing the existing conditions
local republicans have been making
strenuous efforts to change the stu
alton and create larger offerings OF
Mckinley money TO accomplish
this end some wild offers have been
made. Tuesday, apparently through
giving a wild-haired story to the
victims, local republicans induced
several visiting Montana ranchmen
| to post an offer of 81 900 or any
part thereof that Bryan would not
carry Nebraska. The celebrity with
which the offer was grasped gave the
ranchmen a decidedly dizzy feeling.
Half of it was taken by a local mer-
chant and the other half by cOmbi-
nation purse made up among the
staff OF local oppositiOnpaper. The
Lincoln Journal also quoted an offer
of 81 900 even that Mckinley would
carry Nebraska 1t was quickly GOV
cred and within ten hours afterward,
when the paper reached other points
of the state, five offers TO accept were
wired. No other bets of this charac'
ter have been offered. although
money is ready to cover any present
ed. The Bryan club of Beatrice,
Neb., is ready to cover any amount
np to 5000. l. c. Roberts of Nell
son. Neb.. has 81 900 which he will
place on Nebraska. Joseph Burke
of WILDER, Neb., has a similar amount
as has James W. Hiles, proprietor oil
the Kokomo horse ranch at GOthen-
berg. Neb.
