There is considerable speculation as TO
the Mayoralty Endorsement to be taken by
the liquor men at their meeting next
Thursday evening. The impression pre-
walls that neither candidate will be in
dorsed. Wells and Tobin do not expect
the honor, and Schmitzs friends say he
has the field all to himself. The more
conservative liquor men say that an In

Ii is likely that the meeting will be an
exciting one, and the outcome will be
watched with interest by all party men.

rams of the Civil War at its meeting Sat

Mrs. Thorpe Travels From North Da-
kota Only to Be Disap-
nointed

Mrs. Thorpe, middle-aged woman, and
her two children, aged respectively and
years, arrived here last night from
North Dakota and being penniless were
given lodgings in the City Prison. About
Two wears ago Mrs. Thorpe was divorced
from her husband, who conducts a bar
ber shop in Fresno. Recently, she claims,
he wrote to her asking her to join him in
this city and remarry him. Thinking that
he meant it, Mrs. Thorpe at once packed
her trunk and taking her two children
with her started for this city To her sur
prise her former husband failed to meet
her at the ferry as he promised. She is
half inclined to believe that he purpose
ly failed to keep his promise.

president, he has shown himself worthy
not only of our highest regards but has
won the esteem of the nation and of
the civilized world. And
Whereas, We mourn the loss of be-

MRS. GARFIELD
IS FRUSTRATED.
Assassination of President Nc
kinIey Recalls Death Of Her
Martyred Husband.

While the eyes of the nation are
turned towards the heart-broken widow
OF the murdered president, another sor-
rowing widow, whose fate it has been
to pass through the same heart-break-
ing grief, is lying at her home, prostrat-
ed by the thought of the sorrow that
mas come upon Mrs. Mckinley. The
widow of President James A. Garfield,
at her beautiful home in Mentor, has
been prostrated ever since the news
that President Mckinley was assassin
ated. The dark days which preceded
Ter own widowhood have been vividly
recalled to her by the news of the re-
cent national tragedy.
Since the death of her husband, Mrs.
Garfield has lived at the home in Men
tor. which she built on the site of the
o'd home which they left when General
Garfield became president. The home
of her son, Hon. James r. Garfield, is
situated on the same grounds. OF late
years Mrs. Garfield has spent her win
tors in the south or in California, being
unable because of feeble health to stand
the rigorous climate of Ohio. Her
daughter, Mrs. Stanley Brown, the Mol
lie Garfield of the white house, now
grown to mature womanhood, is with
her, and her sons are almost daily Wis
itors.
On account of her illness it is i'm
possible for Mrs. Garfield to attend the
funeral of President Mckinley. Her
sons, Harry and James. represent her.

Best Butter In the world.

The butter of Denmark Is consideret
superior to that Of oil other countries,
1t brings the highest price in fancy
markets and can be found all over the
world In shops where luxuries are
sold. In South America, South Africa
in the East and West Indies, in India,
Egypt and in tropical countries gener.'
ally It is used by epicures. who pay 81
n pound for It In tins of one, two and
three pounds weight No other coun-i
try has been able to produce butter
that will stand changes Of climate so
well.
Refrigerator ships are now found on
nearly all the big steamship routes,
and they can carry perlshables as long
and as far as necessary, but butter
shipped by the ordinary cargo steamer
usually melts and remains In liquid
state as long as 1t is exposed to the
tropic heat. When It passes into the
temperate zone again, 1t hardens, and
the change usually spoils II for the
taste, entirely destroying the favor and
leaving 1t Hike ordinary grease or oil.
The Danes, however, produce butter
which will endure this ordeal without
affecting its flavor or sweetness, and
they are the only people Of whom thiR
may be said.--Chicago Herald.
