A remarkable example OF cunning has
been unearthed in one of our large pris-

was making silver dollars, and distribut-

very much surprised at the discovery,
but no more SO than the person who re-
ceives a counterfeit article in place OF
the genuine. 1t is therefore very i'm
portant when you ask for Hostetter's

The announcement that Mckinney had accepted
the democratic nomination for congress in this district
seems to have been somewhat premature, advices

that he still has the nomination under consideration.
This would indicate that he does not look with favor
on the proposition and every day Of delay is an en-
barrassment to his party. The habit Of nominating
candidates whose acceptance is in doubt is democrat
izng on the party that INDUCES itself that way and de-

Ordinary musical tones. the notes of the

many simple clements. There are In them
seven or eight constituent or partial
tones. quite distinctly audible to the trained

suitable instruments and these partial
tones produced by vibrations in the sound
emitting body whose rates are regularly re-

For long while the metrical forms that

We cannot grasp a group OF seven. and We
perceive larger groups than three only as

TREATY WITH DENMARK.
To Extend Time for Ratifying Cession
of Islands.

The treaty with Denmark for the sale of
the West India Islands belonging to that
country to the United States was under con-
sideration by the Senate committee on for
eign relations today. The question came
up In connection with treaty between the
two countries to extend for a year the
time for the ratifica ton of the cession
agreement, which was rendered necessary
by the rejection Of that treaty by the
Danish parliament The members of the
committee exchanged opinions at some
length upon the advisability of the pro-
posed extension, but an agreement was ar
rived at to postpone consideration of the
supplementary convention for the present.
The opinion quite general that in view
of the rejection of the original treaty that
matter could be we'll allowed to rest here
for a time.
