Mix, good naturedly; "but do you
know that there were some remarkable
freaks Of luck In the FL Reno drawing.
One morning. AZ men left Carthage TO

But there were the two Elting boys and
two Haizlip boys, who went down to-
gether, and all but Melvin Haizlip we're
lucky. The Alumbaughs, OF Reeds,
however, beat that record. The old
gentleman stayed home and registered
as soldier through one Of his two sons
who went to FL Reno and all three OF
them drew claims"
The large number OF Jasperians who
registered are wondering like Mr.. Mix
at the freakish results lof the drawing.
There must have been upwards of thirty

mott single one Of them drew a lucky

A Jasper man who had hauled load OF
apples to Webb City, had a runaway a
mile or two west OF town on the Oak

seven o'clock. He vas returning home
and met someone with a lantern in a
buggy. His team became frightened and
got beyond his control, finally running
into telegraph pole and tearing loose
from the wagon. They we're after
wards caught quarter Of mile away
and ,re taken back. Things were patch

A TALK ON ADVERTISING.
A Good RuIe to Follow u You Want
0ood Results.

1t il a first-rate rule never 10 do any
advertising from which it would be
impossible to trace any results.
There is great deal OF talk about the
mystery Of advertisem ents and its
uncertainty, but there really isn't any
more mystery or any more uncertainty
about it than!there is about any other
business undertaking.
A grocer may buy box Of soap and
shove it under tho counter, and leave it
there until it gets 80 hard as TO be utter
ly vslueless. This same man can buy
advertising space and so use it that lac
will derive no benefit from it. There is
no need Of his wasting the soap or the
advertising.
Run your advertising with the same
common sense that you do tho rest Of
your business, and there will be no guess
work about it, 1t will pay every time
aud always, but do not buy syace on
bill boards; do not buy little tin signs
to tack up on back fences; do not hire
some perambulatinng painter TO dist CUR
the farmers fences with your name aud
address. There is not one time in ten
thouand that you can tell absolutely
whether this.kind OF advertising pays OF
not. The chances are one huadred to
that it does not. Put your hopes in the
newspal ers. Talk about some certain
thing and then get ready for the custo-
mers. II it is IA good thing at the right
price, and you have told about it
plainly aud forcibliy, you will soil it.

O'Clock. Grand Marshal Greene and
staff were al the head of the line.
Veterans in Line.
The staff was very numerous and
made a splendid appearance in full
dress uniforms. representing every
branch of the military service. After
quite breach in the line, came the old
veterans of the civil war, headed by Gen.
Daniel E. Sickles, sitting his charger in
magnificent style Notwithstanding the
absence of the leg he left on the field of
Gettysburg.
Continuous Roar of Applause.
The progress of the carriage was
marked by continuous roar of ap-
plause, men cheering and women
waving their handkerchiefs and clap
ping their hands as the magnificent
equipage with it's sable coursiers
rode down the avenue at a foot pace
The president was in high spirits and
bowed from right to left to the
cheering crowds as he journeyed to
the capitol and was hatless most of
the time. Senator Hanna attracted
much attention as he sat beside the
president.
Following this came the carriages
containing the members of the cab
met and the committees of the two
houses of congress. Then came Ad-
miral Dewey and Gen. Miles with
their aides in full uniform.
Splendid Appearance Of Porto Ricans.
Now came one of the most notable
and impressive features of the whole

the word of command, the Porto

of march. They had been resting on
Pennsylvania avenue near Eleventh
street, and as the relocated artil-
1erymen passed them they wheeled
with beautiful precision into their
place without causing a seconds de-
lay in the marching line. The crowd
sent up a mighty cheer as these SOL

States army, stepped briskly along,
showing their pride and pleasure by
smiling faces.
It was 11:40 when the president,
his cabinet and the escort reached
the capitol. Mr.. Mckinley was con-

Verdict OF '96 Executed.
1.-THE national verdict of 1896 has for the
most part been executed. Whatever re-
mains unfulfilled is continuing obligation
resting with undiminished force upon the
executive and congress. But fortunate as
our condition Is, its permanence can only
be assured by sound business methods and
strict economy in national administration
and legislation. We should not permit
our great prosperity to lead us to reck-
less ventures in business or proligacy in
public expenditures. While the congress
determines the objects and the sum of ap-
preparations, the officials of the executive
| departments are responsible for honest
and faithful disbursement, and it should

dustry are nowhere more indispensable

be fundamental requisites to original ap-
| pointment and the surest guarantees

Washington, March 5.-President

on a handsomely decorated stand at
the east front of the capitol in the
pre- sence of a surging multitude. 1t
was sudden transformation from
the impressive solemnity of the sem

clamor of an outdoor spectacle Of
ma mmoth proportions. From early
in the day the whole city had emp

and there by narrow defiles for the

thoroughly democratic yet, in its
very simplicity, profoundly impress

The setting of the scekc would lend
inspiration to the artists brush. The
historic senate chamber, in it's white
and gold beauty, was without decora-

and stripes were displayed officially,
although, as the last words of the
oath of office fell from the lips of
the stern-visaged, silver-haired SEN
ator from Maine, and Vice President
Roosevelt fervently clasped his hand,

Brilliant Asselnblag

The president of the United States
was there. Senators and represent
atives, members of the supreme court
of the United States, governors of
many states, members of the diplo-
matte corps, army and navy officers,
and men distinguished in all the
walks of life, were passive partici-
pants in the ceremony. The galleries
presented spectacle of marvellous
beauty, the hundreds of brilliantly
attired women, gay in handsome
toilets, lending color scene to the
almost too somber surroundings.
An Absent Face.
Four years ago, the venerable mother
of the president, then over so years old.
was of the presidential party in the ex-
ecutive gallery, but to-day she was no
more.
Almost simultaneously with the pres
idential party, Mrs. Roosevelt and her
friends, principally relatives entered.
Accompanied by her children she was
escorted to front seats in the gallery
reserved for them just opposite those
occupied by Mrs. Mckinley.
An Exchange of Greetings.
The exchange of greetings between
Mrs. Mckinley and Mrs. Roosevelt was
noted by all. The children of Mr.. and
Mrs. Roosevelt, who, with eager eyes,
drank in every detail of the historic oc-
casion, gazed with. -wide-eyed wonder
upon the scene, not missing a single in
cident or detail.
Upon the floor Of the senate the pro-
ceedings were in accordance with
definite programme, from which there
was no deviation.
As the assemblage again was seated,
the new vice president assembled to his
desk to deliver his inaugural address.
Before the delivery of the speech the
venerable chaplain of the senate, Rev.
DR.. William H. Milburn, INVOKED the Di-
vine blessing upon the assemblage and
the ceremonies.
