ADVICE TO A BRIDE,
Given by a Tired Passenger In Pullman
Car.

A drummer joined the crowd Of
jokers in one Of the hotel lobbies last
night, with good-natured smile and
waited patiently until the laugh
caused by the last story had died
away. The joke had been some
thing about bride catching the
measles on her wedding trip and the
drummer had only caught the last
words, "They had only been married
eight days." but he was prepared to
follow up the subject with one bet
ter. -
"These newly married people are
nuisance, anyway" he said cone
night last week | boarded sleeper
after a hard days work and was
kept awake for two or three hours
by silly couple on their honeymoon.
Would never have gotten to sleep ut
all that night, guess, if it hadn't
been for an old gentleman who very
unccremoniously, broke up the COO
ing"
Following is the story he told
The couple had for some time been
very audibly calling each other
"toots," "darling," s'lovey-dovey,"
and other fclicitous names, recorded
only in the lexicon of love and every
body in the car except the happy
pair were bored to death.
The feminine voice at last an
nonnred that she was going to sleep
and all heaved thankful sigh. But
their pleasure was short-lived, for
her better, or rather, other half, after
few moments, murmured: "Kiss
me, Mary; kiss me just once more
before you so to sleep"
ooh, John, am SO tired let me
alone," was the drowsy answer.
"No kiss me again, Mary" in
sisted John. But Mary didn't reply
and John, evidently fearing she
would get to sleep without any fur
thur oscnlatory demonstrations of
her undying alteration for her licge
lord became impatient and repeated
frantically: "Itiss me, Mary, kiss
me, just once, dear Mary won't
you kiss me? Plc-c-casc kiss me,
Mary"
At this juncturc, the old gentleman
at the furtherend of the car, put his
head out of his berth and yelled at
the top of his voice "Iiiss him,
Mary, kiss him. For Gods sake
kiss him and let us all go to sleep"
a murmur of appreciation went
from one end Of the car to the other
and not another sound was heard
from the berth occupied by the newly
married pair.

The Horses Remembered Him.

YoNKERs, N. Y.-Jason Gillespie,
of Wilson Valley, who was in this
city yesterday, told an interesting
incident of the power Vi memory of
horses. "Scven years ago." he said,
81 sold team of young horses that
| had raised. l had broken them
myself, had always been very kind
and gentle to them, and they gave
every evidence of affection for me,
whinnying when approached their
stalls and rubbing their noses against
me and nipping at me lovingly when
| went near them. was fond of
the animals myself, and hated to
part with them, but times were hard
and couldn't afford to keep them.
| sold them to an ovcr-the mountain
man, and had forgotten all about
their existence.
'The horses had not, however, for
gotten me, for on Thursday l was in
a little town outside of Albany and
was tying my horse under an ad-
joining shed when | heard familiar
whnny, and felt horses head rub
against mine. Looking around
saw the team had sold seven years
ago, a little the worse for wear, but
still easily recognizable. Both of
them were giving little whnnies of
pleasure, and tugging at their haltcrs
as if anxious to give further proof of
their delight at seeing me.
"Thcrc was no mistake about their
recognition Of me, and when | rubbed
their noses and patted them they
became, if anything, too demonstra-
tive. rewarded them for their
memories by n few bites of annles
and other dainLies that they used to
relish, and when | started to leave
them it seemed as if they would
break away from their haltcrs, so
demonstrative did they become.
"lf | had been rich man would
have bought those horses back then
and there, just because of their
memories Of me and the old times"

NO INJUNCTION.
Judge Gary Sustains Florence County School

tion prayed for in The case of w. B.
Rowell and others against County
Treasurer McLcndon and the Flor
ence Graded School Board.
lie says if the citizens should de-
eide to levy no special tax whatever
he is at u loss to see by what force
or reasoning it could be held that
the school could also be deprived Of
the poll and constitutional tax. The
same may be said of the supple
mentary fee if it should be shown
that the management Of the school
were doing illegal acts in collecting
fees or otherwise it would furnish
no foundation for an injunction to
shut off the funds of the school. If
the school is being run illegally let
the school be regulated, but this is
no reason why the arm of the court
of equity should be invoked to de-
stroy the school itself
There is no grounds for an iniunc-
ton for collecting the 50 supplement
tary tuition fee.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale of any medicine in tho civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
indigestion and biliousness. Doctors
were scarce, and they seldom heard of
appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigcsted food, rcgu-
late the action OF the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of tho
system and that is all they took whom

other aches. You only need few doses
of Green's August Flower, in liquid
form, to make you satisfied there is
nothing serious the matter with you.

mittcc, and then, with the questions and
nsinuations, go down in defeat?
1t is the same way all along the line
and the question now is, whether the
tendency is not for good business men,
successful men, to keep ont of the polti-
cal mess that seems to be so perennial in
this State, when it ought to be so differ
ent.
There were about twenty candi-
dates this time for the various Offices
be more, unless the opposing interests
hold conventions and nominate full
State tickets, as has been indicated in
Senator Fillman's interview.
The general expectation is that there
will be a full line of candidates for pretty
much every Office in the State House, as
all OF the incumbents, with the cxccp
ton Of Capt. Jennings, will have served
two terms, and that generally means u
full line OF opposition, and with that
condition there is every reason to expect
twice the number of candidates that
were in the field this year. And this
does not include the array Of candidates
that arc sure to bc after the Senatorial
toga Of Senator McI.aurin,
Then, of course, there are the stock
candidates, such as Mr.. Whitman, whose
chief virtue is that he can make pretty
good speech He can never get over Il
thousand votes, yet he can, and does,
consume over half an hour at every cam
paign meeting, and would like very much
for the time limit to be entirely removed,
as he has superb lungs and can never
melt his ccllulod collar.
One thing the State Convention will
nave to do is to restrict the campaign to
candidates for such Offices as Will cntitlc
them if elected to have some influence on
the policy Of the State, and who ought
to discuss issues, and not allow q dozen
candidates to consume time and "cussn
each other. when the law prcscribcs their
duties and they have nothing to do with
making or executing the laws.

An Advertising Farmer.

a Wisconsin farmer has adopted a

me at less expense, and those who
have what want manage to let me

The Rock Island surveyors Start
ed out yesterday afternoon to work
on the proposed extension from
Liberal to Captain, New Mexico.
Chief engineer w. B. Worral came
in Tuesday evening to join the sur
veyors who have been here for the
past three days, preparing for the
trip. Mr.. Worral informs us that
he will begin his work at the end of
the old survey 100 miles west of
this city and will further the survey
to Clayton, New Mexico. He ex-
poets to receive orders when he
reaches Clayton to continue the sur
vey through to Captain. New Mexi-
CO. He thinks he will stay in the
southwest about ten months, making
the preliminary survey and setting
grade stakes from the Liberal ter
minus to the Captain terminus.
The road extension question from
this date ceases to be joke. The
road will be extended and will con-
meet with the Ell Paso & Northeast

Gently predicted that trains will be
running into the new country of the

fitted materially.
