SENATOR CHANDELIERS JoKE.-A
Washington dispatch says that Senator
Chandler cannot get over his propen-
sity to joke. Some time ago he offer
cd reward of 81 20 for the discovery
of The author of the words in the Re-
publican platfCim of 1896 after the de-
claratlon in favor of international BIZ
metallism, (Which we pledge ourselves
to promote" Several persons sought
to establish their right to claim the
honor and the prize, but Senator Fora
ker, who knew something about the
financial resolutions that year, pro-
duced the original draft OF the resolu-
ton, with the records referred to IN
.hc handwritc of Senator Lodge.
Senator Chandler, when the proof
was forthcoming, sent his check to
cover the reward, and wrote as follows:
"All wise men know that Mckinley
and Hobart would not have been elect
ed if the platform had not, while de-
claring opposition to the free coinage
of silver, except as the result of an in
tcrnational agreement if it could be
secured. If Mckinley and Hobart had
not been elected in 1896, Mr.. McKin-
ley would not have been reelected in
1900. Therefore those SIX words were
of priceless value, and l trust that
when all the facts are known my hum.
BILE offering of 800 will be supple,
mcntcd by such generous donations,
not only from many members of the
Republican party, but as well from
Democrats who have so much trem-
blcd at every prospect of the election
OF Mr.. Bryan, as to adequately recog-
nize the sagacity which led you merely
not to conceive, but to actually insert
into the platform of 1896 concerning BIZ
mctallism the words, (which we pledge
ourselves to PROMOTE That immortal
declaration twice made Mr.. Kinley
president, and the fidelity with which
the pledge has been fulfilled the world
knows"

TIE GROWING TRUST. The growth
OF business consolidation during the
present wear eclipscs all previous re-
cords. Trusts have been organized so
swiftly that only those commanding
over $4,000, 900 are deemed worthy
of attention. The big steel strust, with
its capital of 81 100000, 900, stands
at the head of all business transactions
of the world, and even that colossal
aggregation may 10 eclipsed if thv
rumor OF cotton combine should ma
terlalize. The grand total of trusts
organized during the first five months
OF the year runs up to $1,000 100000
The New York Sun gives as the re-
cord of TIE past wccI the shovel trust,
with $lO,0OO,OO0 capital; the cotton
duck trust, with an authorized capital
of $50, 200, 900; a 100000 900 trust tc
utilize the waters of the Platte tol
power; a 800 100000 company to as
sumo charge of the street car system
of Pennsylvania; the complete knock
ing out of the opposition to the Stand
ard Oil trust in Ohio, and the organi
zation into one body of all the paper
makers of the Dominion of Canada
This list, according to The Indianapo
lis News, can be REINFORCED by com
binations in all lines of business, sucI
as fruit, papermakcrs, tin. can interests
carpet combinations, dry goods an
machinery trusts, shipbuilding CON
binations, locomotives and salmo
lisherics-nothing seems to be omitted
New combinations that are promise
are The + )lishcrs of popular music, I
form Tho american Music Publishin
Association, with capital of $4 900
0OO, and the combination of several
the big watch companies INTO watt
trust with capital of $75 200, 900.

Saturday was theirs. Mr.. Patterson
was happy. He believed he had solved
the problem of capital and labor. But
about three years ago labor union

POOR woman who did not belong To the
union, and they demanded of Mr.. Pat

comWittce ordered Il strike. Then he
declared that his men were not charged
for the baths nor the towels nor the
soap, and he would stop the whole
business, which he did Next they
ordered the discharge of his supcrin-
tcndcnt because he was not II unlon
man. This was refused and they struck
again. They also ordered that two
uhion men who had been discharged
for bad work should be rest torcd. ilc
restored them and paid them regularly

KIDNAPPED BY a Horse Frank
Ingram, negro, was tlicd in the
criminal court at Opellka, Ala, for
horsc-stcaling, says the Admission Hot
Blast. When placed on the stand he
told the following story, in an earnest
straightforward manner:
lie said he was passing the stable
where the horse in question was, and
seeing the open gate, he thought he
would shut it. He decided there was
no use to c.0sc the gate if there was no
stock inside, so he looked to see.
Seeing the horse there, he started off
totasten the gate, and stumbled against
bride lying on the ground He
plckcdit up, and discovered that the
horse was following him. lie threw
me bridlc at the horse To stop him and
the bride caught on the horses head.
and being one that closed with Il snap,
it fastened.
Realizing that no one would believe
that the bride would fastcn itself, he
decided he would fastcn the gate,
climb the fence and flee. This he did :,
and the horse jumped the clght-foot
fence and pursued him. He fled in
terror, and the horse ran him nearly a
quarter of mile. Seeing that The
hGrSc was gaining on him, he got to
one side of the road and suuated part
ly down, TO let the horse pass without
seeing him. The horse ran between
his legs and caught him up on its back
and carried him on, despite his efforts
to get off.
When seven or eight miles from the
stable, he says, the horse became CON
Jurcd, and told him that he was going
to throw him of, which was done.
That was the iest he saw of the horse.
lie told the story in dead earnest
ness, while the court officers stood
with batcd breath and gaping mouth
and listened with awe at the weird
story. The jury, having no case against
the horse for kidnapping the negro,
promptly convicted the negro Tor the
strange ride.
