CIeveland's Municipal Cuspi-
dors.

The process of expectorative re-
form has gone so far is Clevland that
an ordinance has been introduced in
the city council providing that in GER
tain central parts OF the town cuspi-
dors shall be placed along the side
walks at distances of 200 feet apart,
and that thereafter no public expec-
toration shall be allowed, except in
these designated and official salivary
repositories, under severe penalties
1t Is rather hard to understand why
the originator of this proposed legis-
lation should have confined the inno-
walton to particular portions Of the
town thus leaving the remainder GUS
pidorless and at the mercy cf the care
less and miscellaneous expectorator.
In analogy so that almost universal
constitutional provision that all taxes
should be uniform upon the same class
of subjects 1t would appear that the
distribution of cuspidors should also
be uniform, and that otherwise the
question of taxation without expec-
toratlon might be raised.
But supposing these difficulties to be
overcome it may be imagined that
Cleveland will have hard time in
training the expectorating class into
the regular and orderly use of these
receptacles Expectorating is otter
more an expression Of nervousness, ol
a sort of gesture rather than a neces
sity for relief from an accumulation O
the juice of the weed. At such times
the expectorator, when out of doors
is not apt to look for cuspldor. Thel
there is the case of halt between sta
tions coupled with the excitement o
the salivary glands caused by raplt
conversation. In this case many mel
the fine. Besides that there / sto b.
taken into account that inaccuracy o
aim may often cause an infraction
The hurrying pedestrian with a fresl
"chaw" would have to have a skill ap
proximating that which enables Buf
falo Bill to break glass balls with 4;
rife, while riding at full speed. Cleve
land may succeed, but it will have II
create lot of new officers to watcl
the expectorators, and the expectorat
ing department will be likely to prov,
an expensive one.-Pittsburg Times.

"What Happened To Jones'

A humorous play is a safer invest
ment than any other style of drama.
People will laugh first and think after
wards, and laughter being in a sense
tangible entity. there is no going
back on the verdict it renders. Again
the fate of farce is quickly determln-
ed. If there is no merriment the first
night, there is no money in the thing,
and no temptation to throw good mon

Artesian Well Under Ocean.

Captain John l.. Young is sinking an
artesian well that is one of the most
novel Of its kind in the world. The
well is being driven midway on the
ocean pier and has already reached a
depth of 74O feet. Ii is to go down
1000 feet, when it is expected large
flow CT crystal water will be tapped
beneath the salt water of the ocean
overhead. 1t will take until the latter
part Of next month to finish the box
ing.
One of the peculiar things observed
about this we'll is that the water now
in it rises and falls when the tides
on the beach. 1t has been ascertain
ed by measurements that the rise ct
water in the well at the depth of TAO
feet is bwo feet, while that on the
beach is more than double. This is
tine first fresh water well that has ever
been sunk in the ocean, and the water
that is being obtained from it is pure,
clear and sweet.-Philadelphi Times

l am the greatest man on earth.
My greatness is in three parts.
Gall, gall and gall.

And then it is.
My greatness is mysterious.
1t seems to be supernatural gift.
You cannot analyze it.
It's like the wind, of which it is ere

You hear the sound of it,
But you cannot tell
Where it comes from,
Nor where it goes to,
Nor where it's at.
Washington?
He was all right
For those early times,
But he couldn't make a speech.
Grant?
Grant made some good moves in
war,
But Grant was a silent man
And what's a silent man.
Webster?
Yes, he was an orator.
But he made only FIVE or six great
speeches in his whole life time.
I've made four thousand in five
years
What do you think of that?
Lincoln?
Yes, Lincoln did very we'll as a
starter.
He was a sort of John the Baptist
OF me.
He made one little talk at Gettys-
burg that was very good.
Lincoln was like me in one respect.
The common people loved him.
That is, you understand
They didn't dote on him
Like they do me,
But they liked him fairly we'll.
I've done a good deal for Lincoln,
I've helped his reputation out.

The following letter from Ed.
V. Price, of the Price-Draper
Clothing Company, of this city,
was recently published in the
Pasadena, (Cal.,) Star. 1t was
written by Mr.. Price to brother
residing in that city, who recog-

his home paper. The letter is as
follows:
w. c. Price of this city is in re-
ceipt OF letter from his brother,
L. V. Price, OF Chicago, which
ought to be adopted as a campaign
document by the Republican party
managers. At the solicitation of
friends, Mr.. Price has allowed a
portion Of it to be printed, as fol-
lows:
have made the statement many
times that | thought Bryan would
be elected, and have misquoted
the number of Democratic votes
in my house, but | will say to you
frankly that do not think for min
ute that the American people will
turn over the management of this
government to a man OF Bryan's
stamp, whom consider the worst
demagogue who ever blighted the
face of civilization; man who
would dig up the remains OF his
sainted mother if he thought he
could further his political interests;
man who has travelled from one
end OF rhe country 10 the other en-
dcavouring to incite class against
class and who ever pulls down,
but never builds up.
| am willing to leave the destiny
OF the Philippines to the party that
settled the destiny of the black
man in the United States. / am
willing to leave the question of ex-
pansion to the party that recon
structed the southern states,
bought Alaska and annexed the
Sandwich Islands. l am willing
to leave the question of militarism
with the party that pensioned the
soldiers of the civil war. l am
willing to leave the settlement OF
the trust question with the party
that enacted the wise tariff laws
that have brought to this country
such unprecedented prosperity.

"a Black Sheep"

If the Grand has ever held a
larger audience than that which
assembled last night, it wonld be
hard to tell the occasion. Every
inch OF standing room above and
below was occupied, and it is said
that the money results overlapped
anything in the previous history OF
the house. The attraction was
Hoyt's ga Black Sheep" which
has been done here so often IN the
past that it might have been doubt
ed as to whether it could secure
any sort of reception again. The
out of-town public, however, came
down in swarms, with many regular
patrons of the house, and the re-
suit was the crush described. The
piece went with the same whirl oi
merriment as before, Mr.. DeVere,
as usual, being the central figure
and being closely seconded by MIR.

State University Notes.

In his speech here several days
ago, Mr.. Frank c. Goudy, the re-
publican candidate for Governor
OF Colorado, said, "lf am elected,
the State University will not lack
funds for its support, 1t is need
less to say that the student vote,
as well as the majority of Boulder
county votes, will be republican.
"The University of Colorado is
to build 5000, 900, gymnasium.
The roof will be constructed so
that it can be opened in sections,
like doors and thus exercise can
be taken practically in open air."

public to the father OF our great
tariff laws, the captain OF the great
Commercial interests of this coun-
try, William Mckinley.
Mr.. Bryan recently made a
speech in ST Louis and chose for
his subject the Bible quotation,
"Absalom, son Absalom, where
art thou2" He attempted to draw
a pitiful picture OF the prospects
OF the young man of the rising
generation. He called on the
mothers of these young men to
witness their commercial bondage

which is constantly going on IN
this country. | will say to you,
| am willing to take my chances
in a land where dry goods clerk
can become the head OF great cor
poration like the Standard OIL
Company. | am willing to take my
chances in a country where a rail
splitter can become the Chief ex-
cutive of nation like the United
States, ! am willing to take my
chances in country where an OBJ
scure lawyer from an obscure town
| in an obscure state like Nebraska
can borrow enough money to come
to Chicago and by his personal
efforts receive the nomination tor
the President OF the United States

parties OF the country. ! pin my
faith on the ability OF the college
graduates that are being turned
out by the thousands annually IN
/ this country to so care Tor our IN
stitutions that they will never be

trampled on.
/ Where there is no longer an op-
portunity for the opposition to the
administration to find fault, when
every question, public and private,
