A late dispatch says: Among 100
American teachers who sailed on
the transport Thomas from San
Francisco to Manila, sixty Of them
on reaching Honolulu were mar
ried. The teachers had been
chosen from many of the normal
universities Of the country and
were all strangers to each other
Their acquaintanceship and court
ship extended over II period of less
than ten days.
The captain of the Thomas re

the arrival of the transport al

IT is the policy of nearly every
business man in Stafford to patron
ize his home paper for every bit o.
printing he uses, job work or ad
vertising, believing that the paper
that labors from one years end to
the other in the interest of the
town is entitled to his patronage
Those who assist in building NJ
outside institutions ut the expense
of their own town are very few
Through the efforts of newspapers
towns become cities and through
their persistent labor it is made
possible for men to establish busi.
ness and prosper. No wonder the
progressive business man believes
in supporting his home paper.

TAMPERING WITH TRIPLES.
MAUD MULLER.


Maud Muller, in her youths heyday,
Walked out with youth in puerile way.
For Maud in love, the youth was too,
And they Jared aboard for chance to
Maud's feet splay, and her hair spread
Like wisp of hay on her eggshaped head.
And the eyes through which Maud looked afar
Were as bias as ever Mongols are.
Her hands were large and her ample bust
Was size the cautious would take trust.
And freckles hid Maud's turned-up nose
And her smile wide like laugh half froze
And the youth askance sized up her fat
And whispered soft, "Now, look at that.
"From Indias strands to Norways frs
There's never girl with shape like her's!'
And the palm in which Maud's big fist lay
Was nearly as large bale of hay.
And the youth with whom Maud went to trek
Had great big lump in his long, lean neck;
And his Adams apple down would slide
For every sigh that the young sighed.
He was somewhat stopped, and his legs were bowed,
And his tracks in the dust looked pigeon-toed
And he never laughed or talked bit
But what he scattered a deal of spit.
But thr ough nights and days Maud thought Of him,
And he looked to her like seraphim.
And the sweetest fact in life you'll find,
Is the fact that Love created blind.

OHIO, SILVER AND COLORADO,

with Whatever cOntumely the
Ohio democracy treated Bryan and
free coinage, the Colorado demo-
cracy and cogn0te silver parties
stand firmly for Bryan and free
coinage. The necessity for keep
ing in mind bimetallism with
armor bright and lances couched
is as great as ever before. The
need is even greater now than be-
fore that the allied silver forces
stand on guard to repel attacks
upon what of the silver coinage
remains. They should be ready
to advance AMI become assailants
themselves when vantage may be
gained for tie cause.
If asked whether we see immedi-
ate hope Ior free coinage, we ans
wer No. If asked whether we ex-
pect the National convention of
either of the great parties to de-
clare for free coinage at l6 to /,
we say No But we also say that
Colorado stood for free coinage
long before either of the parties ac-
quired the courage to espouse it,
and Colorado will stand for free
coinage after all may seem to
abandon il. Colorado wrecked
both political parties because they
abandoned the constitutional cur
rency Of the Nation and cocrced
one Of the parties to return to the
ancient financial landmarks. Col.
orado may enjoy the proud dis
tinction of arresting the retreat of
parties and turning them back in
to the old financial channels.
Let us admit that free coinage
is not Of the fruit that will be
plucked in the coming four years.
Yet there is the silver coinage that
is to be defended. We can better
defend it from the most advanced
silver position than from the last
ditch-driven fr99nfa32 99nfa32 wRii wMlRiiCh all will
! be LOST. @
We know that the purpose of
the gold standard men is to de-
monetize the silver dollar. That
their plan is to retire them by pro-
viding for their exchange, or, as
the goldites express it, their re-
demption in gold. That their
place in the currency is to be fill
ed with bank paper, and ultimate
ly they are to be sold as bullion.
With this accomplished, silver will
be to the currency what copper
and nickle are. 1t will be utilized
as tokens only for small change
and will be legal tender for moth
ing at all.
If striking down free coinage
followed by closing the Indian
mints, more than cut the value of
silver in two and wrecked every
silver mine in the land until cheap
er treatment made new markets
for silver ores, what will be the
outcome when the silver dollars
are cast into the melting pot and
400, 100000 ounces of silver are
cast upon the market? The uses
of silver will then be practically
confined to the arts, and in the
solemn judgment of the NeloS it
Will go begging the world over for
purchasers at 25 cents an ounce.
Silver will, indeed, meet Garfield's
description, "Cheap and nasty"
and to the low price it will fall it
would now be considered absurd
to guess.
Colorado will stand for silver
and it will stand by Bryan. And
Colorado will fight for silver both
in conventions and out of them.
1t will make no difference what
conventions do-State or National.
1t will never suffer a second and
even more deadly attack than the
first upon its greats mining indus
try without resisting to its utmost.

FREE TRADE BREEDS

Ihsfe is no reason why the peo.
pie Of Canada and the people of
this country should not be good
customers to each other. Unfet.

have the same result that like trade
has between our own states. Take
the fetters from our intercourse

A SANDWICH.

Last week Frank Alley, editor of
the Globe Times, wrote the follow
ing concerning wedding in Globe.
As soon as the paper appeared he
got the Sheriff Thompson to lock
him IN Jail for "a hours for pro,
lection:
Mixed drinks may be success,
but mixed reporting is a failure.
Last Sunday the Tines man went to
turn in an account of wedding in
the suburbs Of Globe. He took
elaborate notes of the beautiful
ceremony, also some champagne.
Coming home, he fell in with the
ball game. He took liberal notes
on that, also couple of bottles of
Anheuser-Busch. The next morn
ing his copy intended for publica-
ton, read something like this:
"The room was daintily decorat-
ed with holly, pot plants, fancy
paper work and row of snot-
nosed kids crowding the
back stop, while Delaney called
for order. The groom advanced
modestly to the alter, then made a
run to first, where the minister
tripped him up with the holy
ritual in his right hand. The bride
was daintily attired in elaborate
chiffon yelling, while a heavily
quilted chest protector stopped a
cannon ball flash intended for third.
AS the ceremony proceeded with
profound solemnity, Harry Sui
tan went to the bat with a red-hot
daisy-cutter, which let him to third,
and the bride, with deep emotion
and becoming modesty, leaned her
cheek on the manly sb BOULDER of the
umpire, who declared Farmer Jones
out on second. Amid great ap-
plause the minister declared the
Stars winner with ascore of 10 to 3.

by the bride was a pair of flaming

AMERICAN POETS LoNe-LIvED.
With Some Exceptions, Our Bards Have
Reached the Allotted Age.

Reached the Allotted Age.
A most striking fact is the longevity
of our poets. The typical American
poet-when one thinks of It and no
tices the faces that look down from his
library walls-is found to be an aged,
hoary man, says Oscar Lowell Teiggs in
the Forum. OF the eight poets pic
tured on the frontispiece, six are gray
boards and incline to badness and Of
the black-haired heads, Lanier lived to
be 80 and Poe to be 40. No American
poet has had the advantage of John
Keats Of dying young with still enough
accomplished to be compared with
Shakespeare on the ground of his prom
ise. Many fair hopes centered in Cora
Fabri, Anne Aldrich and Winifred
Howells, the youngest of the sister,
hood to lay down their pens; but their
work was too incomplete to give
prophecy of their maturity. Joseph
Rodman Drake at 25, Stephen Crane
at 20, James Berry Bensel at 80 and
Francis Brooks at 81 had hardly begun
their true poetic career. Probably our
literaure sustained its greatest loss in
the death of Richard Hovey, who was
destined to accomplish great works and
to win high renown; at 36 he was Just
prepared for bold adventure. Timrod
and Emma Lazarus had fulfilled much
of their promise at 49, Edward Row
lands Sill and Bayard Taylor, whose
premature deaths were much lamented,
had yet time at 46 and SO to accom-
plish not little well-rounded and WELL
proportioned work. Longfellow, Low
ell, Whitman, Story and Halleck en-
tered the 10th; Emerson reached the
SOth mark: while Freneau, Whittier,
Holmes and Bryant passed it, Dana
lived on into the Goth.
Some few sensitive natures, like Poe
and Richard Realf, suffered pain and
travail, largely the fault of their pc
culiar temperament; ill-health affected
the output Of some; the Civil War cut
short the lives of several; accident
closed few careers; and four suffered
violent death at their own hands. But
for the great majority the currents of
life ran smoothly, and, save the or
binary incidents of change, they lived
in serenity of spirit

for by his democratic habit of making

port of deserving public charities. In
entering upon his reign he has the good

lessons the difficulty Of his position.
One Of the penalties Of royalty Is the
obliteration of private feeling. The
state demands of the new king the per-
formance of certain public ceremonies
with which his personal bereavement
must not be permitted to interfere. His
mourning for his mother must be oh
served in secret. Before his subjects
he must bear himself with cheerfulness
and dignity. 1t Is a situation identical

their hair completely. There have been
many instances of the most vicious
kinds of practices. Young men have
been thrown into rivers or lakes, head
ed up in barrels and rolled down hill,
etc. Occasionally freshmen have re-
sisted the perpetration of these out
RACES. Revolvers have been drawn by
both sides, but when the freshman who
was thus inclined to defend himself has
been caught unarmed he has often been
made to pay dearly for his self-defense.
With the progress of education and
civilization these practices have be-
come less common in many of the large
universities, but that they still exist to
some extent and in their worst form
is evident from the developments in the
West Point case. This fact led an old
college man to remark the other day:
'The time has come when the brutal
college hazer should be treated in ex-
actly the same way as any other GRIM
inal. No effort should be spared either
by the college or civil authorities to
catch the culprits and when appre-
hended they should be given the full
penalties allowed by the law. If few
of the young wretches, who are nothing
but brutes in human form, were sent to
the penitentiary as they should be for
five or ten years it would have a most
salutary effect upon college hazing."
