ELI PERKINS AGAIN.
Gets stcange Admissions from .
Dyed-in-the-WooI Southern
Democrat.


Commercial, Eli Perkins was intro
duced to Judge Scott, an old dyetin-
the-wool Kentucky democrat. The
judge is we'll known In the Blue Grass
region, and the grand old Kentuckian
has always been looked up to as q
high priest Of "befo' the wah democ-
racy."
Perkins was introduced by an. old
democrat, and Judge Scott supposed
Eli was a democrat, too, and he be-
came confidential with him at once.
slow are we democrats getting
along, judge?" asked Eli, in conf
Dental tone.
The judge looked at Eli a moment,
to see il he really wanted information
about the party, and slowly re-
marked:
"Well, sir, we are getting on very
well, financially, but politically we
are running behind. Yes, I'm afraid
we are running behind"
"What causes this?" asked Eli.
"Well, sir" said the Judge, sadly,
81 am afraid our party has not been
altogether right. We have erred in
some things"
where have we erred, judge?"
"Well, sir, / hate to admit it, but
our Grover Cleveland policy hurt us
Kentuckians. l wouldn't say it to a
black republican, but we democrats
all admit it among ourselves. You
see" said the Judge, "we used to get
35 cents for WOOL and a Dig price for
hemp and tobacco, before Grover
came in, but that Wilson bill hurt us.
1t knocked wool down to IL cents.
Free jute, put in to help the cotton
fellows, ruined our hemp and it rotted
In the ground. Then we lowered the
tariff on tobacco and our tobacco
went down on us. We didn't complain.
but we democrats did good deal of
thinking. Cattle and hogs got lower
and lower and when Grover went out
we were pretty poor|yes, dog-on hard
up, sir!"
Are they still bad-the times?"
asked Eli.
NO, honestly, the times are good.
Wool and hemp and tobacco have dou-
bled in price and are still going up.
Cattle and hogs are high and our blue
grass farmers are getting rich"
swell, what is the matter, then"
why, these good times have knocked
out our dear old democratic party.
Our democratic farmers say they will
never vote for free trade or low tariff
again"
well, what can We democrats DOE"
asked Eli.
II hate to admit it," said the judge,
sadly, "but il we democrats want to
win in Kentucky again we've got to
keep the tariff right where it is. That
old Wilson bill and Bryan's free silver
will be scarecrow to every farmer in
Kentucky and Tennessee. We've tried
low tariff, and we know-I'm ashamed
to say so. but we know il hurt us! No,
sir, the people are prosperous, but our
democratic party is doing poorly. l
wouldn't say it to black republican,
but that il the way we democrats talk
among ourselves"
As the Judge got off the train at Lex
ington he remarked: "Ies, and there
was another mistake we democrats
made. Grover Cleveland wanted to
sink the republic Of Hawaii and put a
niger on the throne. We democrats
didn't complain, but it made us sick,
for, between you and me, we demo-

THEGITHER STILL.

It's you and thegither still,
We're left now a DOR lane,
To help ilk ither doom the hill:
But we mauna complain.
Old ages snaws are fallin' fast,
Dor bairnies scattered far;
What sud we care for storm and blast.
Syne We thegither are?
1t seems, guild wife. but just yestreen
When we forcgathered hame,
What annals change FIJI lie between,
But we are still the same.
All. then you were my bonnie bride,
WI hair a auburn-brown;
We didna care for things o pride
That crazed the neebrin' town.
Dor household altar we set up.
Ill-furnished but an ben;
Aft drinkin frae the self-same cup,
What mattered poortith then?
Without, the daisied glebe pleughed,
You piled hand at the loom;
Let blast come doom. we closer stood
And gi'ed the stranger room.
For twa-score years we've held DOR ain,
Haze had DOR ups an doons,
To cleek thegither still flu fain
Through fortunes smiles and frowns.
And now llfe's tale Is well-nigh tauld,
Dor sands are almost run;
The twilight's trenholm star o. gold,
After the settin' sun!

Wages Higher Than Ever.

An advance of 10 per cent. in wages
TO more than 10000 employees of the
National Tube company took effect on
April I. This was the second increase
granted by the same company within
six months, and 1t makes the wages OF

Mckinley said: open the mills" This

BIBLICAL HISTORY CARVED IN STONE FOUND AT

London. May 2-Professor George r. NJ. Murray,
keeper of the department of botany in the British
Museum said to-day regarding the reported
discovery. after being lost for more than nine
hundred years of letters alleged 10 have passed
between Christ and King Agrtppa, and 70 have
been carved in stone over the gateway or the
palace OF the kings Of Ephesus:
There is no doubt that the Inscription found at
Ephesus is genuine production OF the NTH CEN

except that II is in the nature Of q confederation

charge of excavations there on behalf OF the Aus

work some time ago in Vienna.
The fact that these alleged letters between Christ
and AgTippa were used as charm by Christians in
the nth century their Intels Is established
bur this would not prove that any such CORE

The discovery of the stone tends TO relieve this
suspicion, and makes IL toleraby certain that
