German Lovemaking.

She is a pretty American girl,
spending the winter in Berlin and
wrestling with "that awful German
language" which Mark Twain has so
delightfully."- described; but if her
German is painful to her neighbors
it cannot be more astonishing than
the English to which she is compell-
ed TO listen. She has written back
to her friends in America the record
Of her exploits in belleship and as
modestly as is becoming in one with
long line OF social successes.
II must write you an extract" she
says, from a note one of the Ger
man officers wrote me. He is sta.
toned at Bremen, but came up here
for his holidays and took me to a
dance. The spirits bear witness I
shall never go to another German
dance. But this is the extract:
al am glad l made you: assccia-
ton on my holidays, and that I could
be about you on the last hours of my
presence at Berlin on the ball, which
shall be by you the most agreeable
dancing,
"As if that were not sufficient in
the way of elegant English phrase
ology for me to think over the win
ter" she continues, "he sent me a
photograph of himself and has witt
ten:
"'May it be an remaining remem-
brauce of some wonderfully fine to-
gether spent fortunately days.
"Heigho! His mother has been
here 10 negotiate with my mother in
true German style-but nay! I fear
that after we were married our days
would not be 30 wonderfully fine to-
gether spent fortunately"

An Unfortunate Statement.

An Oxford professor was giving
his pupils lecture on Scotland and
the Scots
"These hardy men, he said, "think
nothing about swimming across the
Tay three times every morning before
breakfast"
Suddenly loud burst of laughter
came from the centre eff the hall, and
the professor amazed at the idea of
any one daring to interrupt him in
the middle of his lecture, angrily ask
ed the offender what he meant by
such conduct.
II was just thinking, Sir" replied
that individual, "that the poor Scotch
chaps would find themselves on the
wrong side of their clothes when they
landed!'

Think Germans Were Beaten.

London, May 3-A news agency
dispatch from Pekin says the Ger
man military operations on the
borders of the province of Shansi
are considered to have had bad
effect. According to Chinese gossip
the Germans were driven back after
suffering heavy losses, and this is
implicitly believed by the majority
of the people.

THE POT OF GOLD.

He used to think o pot
Of gold was buried where
The radiant rainbow touched the ground,
And oft helped him hunt around
To find the treasure there.
But that was long ago,
In childhood's careless days.
'Tis dead. that fond belief of old;
We seek no bur:e pots of gold
And walk in worldly ways.
Yet where the people surged
saw him push his way
To bet his money on the race.
I saw him with an ashen face
Trudge home that luckiess day.
At rainbows' ends We sought
In vain for hidden fold;
An. he and were children then,
Now he and l are both men
And wiser than of old

eating this poison, and destroying the.
craving for intoxicants. Sufferers may

many years of close study and treat
ment of inebriates. The faithful use

Grover Hashman, a poultry raiser of
Titiin, Ohio, claims to have made a
discovery which may reyolntienize the
present inconvenient method of ship
ping eggs. He has invented an egg
shell which is elastic and unbreakable.
He has done away with lime as diet
for hens, and instead he feeds them on
pulverized rubber mixed with corn
meal. This forms a rubber film around
each egg, and tho sulphur contained
in the egg vulcanizes the soft rubber
into hardness. The children can use
them for play balls either before or
after boiling.

II the Constitution followed the Pres
ident would have no objections to
the adulations bestowed upon him.
But I fear the Constitution follows
neither the President or the flag, and
is mo longer an active agency in the
government of the people, by the
people and for the people. San Fran
cisco outdid herself in her reception,
and her sorrow over the sickness of
his wife can only be exceeded by the
loss of trade she suffered owing to his
early departure, and his inability to
show himself few minutes before

Carson Letter.

EDITOR COURIER: President Nc
Kin1ey has been guarded by a force of
detectives and police on his trip to the
Pacific Ocean, just the same as any
other potentate would be. On his re-
turn trip, leaders of the Republican
party in Nevada telegraphed the Pres
ident, asking if he would not stop for
half an hour at Reno, and he tele.
graphed back that he would, and
large number of Carson Republicans
went down to see him. To the amaze
nnent of the assembled crowd the train
which carried him shot through the
town at tiss@ rate of 80 miles an hour.
The reason has just been learned
through a cologeaa porter on the train,
who claims to have overheard the con-
versation, which was something like
this:
Mckinley, to his Secretary: Say,
Corteleyou, what did | ever do for
Nevada?
Corteleyou: Your Majesty never did
a thing for Nevada.
Mex: Well, | guess Nevada won't
do thing to me If stop. Go tell the
conductor no stops in Nevada.

PHYSICIANS Big BILL.
Claim of $1eo,ooo Presented
to Magee Estate for Med
ical Advices.

Pittsburg, April 22.---The estate Of
the late Senator Chris l.. Magee has re-
ceived a bill froIu DIR. Walter c. Brown.
ing, of Philadelphia, for 100000 for
professional services during the illness
of the senator. DR.. Browning was In
attendance OH Senator Magec for u
months previous to his death, and ac-
companied him to several places for the
recovery of his health.
The fee is believed to be one of the
largest of its kind ever charged In
Pennsylvania or elsewhere. and has
produced widespread comment In pro.
fessional circles. The bill is understood
to be itemized. covers Fl months treat.
ment and Is charged at the rate of $50
per treatment hour. One charge is
$17 900 for last summers treatment at
Atlantic City. and another $4,000 for
accompanying the deceased to Hot
Springs, Va.
The executors Of the Magce estatt
refused to discuss DIR. Browning's bill,
except to acknowledge that the charge
of $l900O0 has been made. 1t Is learn-
ed, however. that the bill will be con.
tested. The work of the executors Of
the estate is reviewed by the county
courts, and it may be there that the
physicians charge will be taken up.

STAUB IS
AT LISBON
Arraigned Before Squire
Lodge Riddle.
BOND ONE THOUSAND
Pleaded Not Guilty, but Was
Held for the Grand
Jury April

Curtis Staub, the man who was ar.
rested and charged with shoting An.
drew Miller near Minerva, was taken
to Lisbon and arraigned before Squire
Lodge Riddle, Friday. Staub pleaded
not guilty, and enough testimony was
taken to warrant the justice in binding
the prisoner over to the grand jury.
Bond was fixed at $1,000. There is
general surprise that the amount Is SO
prisoner would be held without bond to
await the result of Miller's injuries
Should some friend come forward and
furnish the bail asked, Staub would
have an excellent chance to escape the
penalty of his crime cheaply It is al
together probable, however, that should
there be an attempt made to bail him
out the bond would be raised by the
authorities.
The more the situation Is studied
and inquired into, the more certain the
authorities are the right man has been
arrested. His own actions and con
flicting stories are enough to convict
him, even II there were not the posi-
tive Identification by the parties who
saw him running away from the Miller
place.
The next term of court will begin II
Columbiana county on April 29th. ant
the grand jury will assemble on the
first day of the term. 1t Is altogether
probable that Staub's case will be the
first one considered by that body. HI
will undoubtedly be indicted.

feared that the record Of 1884 might
be broken, but now 1t is generally be.
lieved that the river will not exceed
the floods of February, 1897, and of
March, 1898. when 1t reached 81 feet
at Cincinnati. The present food is
the worst that has ever been known

WASHINGTON, April 22. - The
river situation at PIttsburs was some-
what relieved last night. At 10 a. m.,
after reaching a maximum stage Of
27.5 feet, or SIS feet above the danger
line, the MonongaheIa river began to
fall, and about 8 p. m. the stage was
25.9 feet, a fall Of 1.6 feet since morn.
ing. The maximum stage reached in
the Allegheny river was 2s.6 feet.
Below Pittsburg the river was still
rising. At Wheeling, w. Va, about
noon, the river was 1.6 feet above the
danger line Of 80 feet and rising, and
an extreme high water stage Of at
least 4.3 feet was indicated during
Monday.
At Parkersburg the stage about ,
p. m. was 40 feet, four feet above the
danger line, and a rise of three feet
since a. m. A further rise to prob.
ably about 48 feet was expected dur.
ing the "a hours following.
Below Parkersburg the knanwha
Big Sandy and scioto were sending
out their flood volumes and at noon
the Ohio between Point Pleasant, w
Va, and Cincinnati was rising one
half to one foot an hour, and rapid,
approaching or passing the danger
line at all points. At Cincinnati, abou,
p. m, the stage Of the river wat
42.4 feet, with every indication thai
the danger line Of so feet would be
reached or exceeded by about Monda,
noon.
It was still raining or showing ovel
the upper Ohio valley, and therefor.
impossible to accurately predict tn,
time or the height of the flood crest,
below Parkersburg, however, It wa;
expected, the danger lines would b,
passed at all stations above Cincin
natl during last night, and still highe
stages prevail during Monday. Poin
Pleasant, w. Va, at p. M, alread,
reported stage Of AZ feet, or eiah

Cincinnati the Ohio will also rise rap
idly during the next few days, and al
