THE SUSPENSE IS TERRIBLE

To enthusiastic Americans wh0 have been closely following the devel opments of the army and navy maneu vers along the Atlantic seaboard the mimic war has now reached stage which leaves them guessing" to a nerve-racking degree.
 This is because there is a weird mystery as to whether the New Eng land coast is now in the possession Of a fleet and army of invasion or whether that fleet and army have been annihilated by the doughty forts which lay between them and the rich prize of New York City.
 Following the fleets attack on the land batteries defending Newport harbor the division commander at Fort Adams, speaking of the bonn barding ships that had then become silent, said: We have sunk them sunk them so thoroughly that the hand of resurrection will never reach them"
 But Captain Zalinski of the United States army contends that on that same night the fleet was victorious proving itself indestructible and gain ing a position from which the bonn bardment and capture of New YorF City itself was easily made possible This suspense is terrible. What has really happened on the Atlantic sea board? Have we met the enemy ant are they ours, or are we theirs? It uncomfortable, this not knowing whether Old Glory still floats over ths eastern seawalls of our native land Oh. say can you see, by the dawn early light. what so fondly we hailet at the twilight's last gleaming? If so i do tell-St. Louis Republic.

The editor of the Miner still has an idea that w. P. Miller should run in dependent and receive the endorse ment of the republican party. Why not take him right into the fold and make him the regular republican nom- inee? We believe he would stand for it. Then get on the ticket yourself, Bill. That would make two sure shots for the democrats.

Supt. S. w. Clawson has declined the nomination of the republican party of Cochise county for the coun- cil. He has done so for the reason that MT Clawson is a firm believer in the principle that the office of min ing superintendent and politics do not go hand in hand. During all the years MT. Clawson has held the superinten- dency of the Copper Queen mine, he has never used the influence of his position to further interests of any political party. Would that all min ing superintendents were built on the same plan.

Advocates of a separate organiza- tion for the anthracite coal miners should remember that without the ald of President Mitchell and the bituml- nous coal miners the anthracite dis trict would not have been organized at all.

Tails of Comets.

In memoir ON the origin Of the
rora borealls Professor Arrhenius git
a theory of the formation of the tai
of comets. 4 comet revolves arout
the sun under the influence of the |:
traction of gravitation. The comett
tail usually points directly away froii
the sun as If repealed by that body
The force of repulsion can be calculate
ed. The cause Of the repulsion has 81
far been unexplained. The electrd
magnetic theory of light CLERK Maxi
,well's) involves the consequence that
a pressure is produced in the direction
Of the propagation of any wave Of
light, and this pressure can be calcu-
lated.
The radiant energy of the sun can
also be computed. 1t follows that the
pressure away from the sun on body
of unit density and cubic centimeter
In dimension is such as to make 1t lose
about one ten-thousandth part Of its
weight. Spectrum analysis shows that
the tails of comets are made up Of gas
eous hydrocarbon compounds. Rea-
sonable assumptions as to the sizes,
etc, of the molecules Of such gases
give q basis for calculation. The gen.
eral result is that as comet approach
es the sun the solid or liquid hydrocar-
bons of its head'are vaporized by heat.
The larger particles fall toward the
sun. The very smallest are repealed
to form the tail. If the head of the
comet is homogeneous, only one tail
will be formed; II heterogeneous, null
tiple tail.

An Unfortun.te An.wer.

OF an official who died as the head Of
one of the Great Northern systems and
who was one of the fathers Of modern
railroading the following story is told:
Once, when master mechanic, he was
staying in the country. An afternoon
walk brought him to the edge Of cut
ting through which ran his line. On
side track lay a waiting engine. The
fireman and engineer were smoking
placidly, while the safety valve was
giving open evidence Of the size Of the
fire within. As the engine was doing
nothing in particular, this waste of
coal reused the ire of the man on the
bank. "Who is your master mechanic"
he inquired of the loafing fireman.
"Oh, some gray bearded, baldheaded
old blankety blank blank fool down in
Boston," was the cheerful answer.
"Well," returned the other as not a
muscle Of his face changed, I'm that
gray bearded, baldheaded old blankety
blank blank fool from Boston, and you
want to bank those fires, and bank
them p. d. or
The fireman, it is needless to say,
did as he was bid.-New York Tribune.

You will observe that the next lecture
will not be on the date stamped on the
season tickets, but will be six days ear
lier, next Tuesday evening, Jan. IA, at
the Presbyterian church. On account
OF there having been no entertainments
in town for some time, everyone will be
eager to listen to something good; this
is promised us by DR.. Fox's lecture,
SLOW made Fortune" The subject
certainly will excite interest, and is said
to be bright, interesting, and capable of
gaining the sympathy of its hearers. DR..
ID. F. Fox is prominent Chicago cler-
gyman and is a very popular lecturer,
having received as high as six return en-
gagements in some places. We shall
quote recommendations of him merely
from two of the deepest thinkers in our
country. DR.. Gunsaulus says, Broadly
intellectual and deeply convinced Of
great truths, he un;tes rare gifts OF ex-
preston with such self.mastery as gives
him mastery over an audience. pre-
dict great career for DIR. Fox on the
lecture platform" DIR. Hills says, "Dr.
Fox's lectures are of the highest grade
of excellence, clear, instructive, stimula-
ting, and inspiring" Since we are as
sured of fine lecture and may feel con-
I fident that the evening will be profitably
and pleasantly spent, it is hoped that a
large audience will be present.

District Court.

Court has been sitting the past week.
The case of State VS.. Tom Egan charg-
ing him with adultery occupied its
time up to Tuesday at about 3 p, m.
The jury at about 8 p. m. returned a
verdict of not guilty. The case was
watched with considerable interest.
County Attorney Blume prosecuted
with vigor, ability and skill, and the
impression seemed prevalent that con-
viction would follow. Funk & Graham
made a strong defense. The defendant
came SO near conviction that the effect
will surely be salutary for society.
Other evil doors in that particular may
take warming.
The case of Leet, Boysen & Beason
VS.. L. J. Elwood was for a note and
interest, $4,000 said note purporting
to have been signed by John Conway
and L. j. Elwood, given in 1892 to
Ella b. Conway. The note was sold to
plaintiffs. Defendant denies his sigma
ture. The jury decided for the de-
PENDANT. W. c. Elliott represented
plaintiffs and Cosson & Ross and Nash,
Phelps & Phelps the defendants.
The case on trial new is Mrs. Sadie
Nj. Erickson VS.. Cass County brought
here on change of venue. Plaintiff asks
for $40, 900 for personal injuries receiv-
ed by falling through damaged bridge
in that county. 1t commenced yester-
day morning and will likely take most
of the week. Several doctors are here
and other witnesses. Attorney Good

bishop whipple ms a Dentist.

On one Of the first of his journeys to
the west one Of the Indians came to
Bishop Whipple and said, "Wi-bid-
akosi'' (Ly tooth is siclS), and asked
for relief. Bishop Whipple was unable
TO give it and was greatly distressed.
Accordingly, upon his first visit to Chi
cage. he went to friend who was a
dentist and asked to be shown how to
extract teeth. He was told to separate
the igaments around the tooth, to take
a firm grip and then to pull.
Equipped with an old pair Of den
lists forceps, he went back to his work,
and when, after the service at White
fish lake, an Indian came to him with
his hand to lis face and asked for re-
lief the good bishop produced his
forceps and started upon his career as
an unregistered dentist.
The "sick tooth was a large upper
molar, but the bishop never blanched.
Neither did the Indian. With stolid in-
difference TO the pain the red man sub
mitted to the operation, which, Bishop
Whipple confessed, must have been n
bungling one at best and the Il otli
was finally twisted out and the bishop
had the satisfaction of hearing the old
chief afterward telling his people,

lar fiavoring for sweets and CONNECTION
cry known as 'ratafia," contains in its
strongest form sufficient percentage
Of hydrocyanic acid to make 1t highly
dangerous. A young man who was ex-
ecuting an order by pouring 1t from a
large bottle to a smaller one noticed
that he had not put the label quite
straight on the smaller bottle and took
It Off again. Before replacing the label
he licked it to make sure Of Its sticking
properly. But while pouring he had
inadvertently let drop or two trickle
on the outside of the bottle where he
had affixed the label. Then when he
touched the label with his tongue he
felt as If something shot along that
member and also jump Of his heart.
So he rushed to n tap, which was for
tunately close at hand, and put his
tongue under the running water. Never
as long as he lived, he said, would he
forget that poisoning sensation.-Cham-

rLe ADVICE came nomc 10 noo.t.

The Advice Came Home to Roost.
The president of one of the promi-
nent railway corporations in America
was making a stirring address to an
audience of young men and dwelt
with particular emphasis on the neces-
sity of making good appearance.
"When you are looking for work"
he said, "be careful that ysu are pre-
sentable. If you have only S24 in
the world, spend $50 for suit Of
clothes, $3.50 for a pair of shoes, 80
cents for hair cut and shave. Then
walk up to the job wherever it is and
ask for it like man."
This advice was greeted with great
applause, and the railway president
sat down amid storm of cheers.
The very next morning dapper look
ing young fellow walked into the outer
office of the orator and, handing note
to the clerk, said, "Please give this to
the president" The note read as fol-
lows:
81 have paid $50 for this suit Of
clothes, $3.50 for a pair of shoes and
80 cents for hair cut and shave. l
have walked from Harlem, and would
like job as conductor on your road"
He got the job.

Democracy In Switzerland.

The Swiss girl is taught to be hum
Bile and practical from the moment
when, ut four. she enters the infants
school until, Mt eighteen, she returns
finished from the pension. There is
absolutely no difference between the
treatment of the masses and the
classes. They sit together at school,
are taught the same subjects by the
same masters, receive the same punish
ments and the same praises. Little
cares the daughter of the millionaire If
her bosom friend is the daughter Of her
own fathers coachman. They have
been brought up together and remain
together without let or hindrance. The
Swiss girl is never ashamed of being
seen at her work, be that work Of the
most humble description.

Union Gospel Meetings.

The sermon by Rev. Vollmar last
Sabbath night at the Presbyterian
church was an able one and was listen
ed to by large congregation and good
must result from its delivery. Rev.
Holmes will preach at the M. E. church
the coming Sabbath night. 1t is hop
ed that the capacity of the church may
be taxed by people to hear him. The
week day services have been largely
attended and the interest seems to be
growing. The services will be held as
announced last week except that the
meeting of this afternoon will be held
at the Evangelical church. The exact
date of Mr.. Sundays coming can not
be announced at this time but we hope
TO be able to give date in next weeks

The Cat and the Tail.

Once upon time cat who prided
herself on her wit and wisdom was
prowling about the barn in search of
food and saw tail protruding from n
hole.
''There is the conclusion Of a rat"
she said.
Then she crept stealthily toward u
until within striking distance, when
she made jump and reached 1t with
her claws. Alas, it was not the ap-
pendage Of rat, but the tail Of a
snake, who Immediately turned and
gave her a mortal bite.
Moral.-It is dangerous to jump at
conclusions.

When you meet man who describes
himself as mere man." You would
always do well to ask what he wants,
for since man first swung himself from
the bough in the forest primeval and
stood upon his two legs he has never
assumed that position for nothing. My
own private opinion, which confide to
you, knowing it will go no further, Is
that he assumes that tone, as a rule, to
overawe sovereign woman. - Sarah

our Eirat Horsea.

The first horses imported into Amer
lea. says a London journal, were taken
over by Columbus on his second voy-
age in 1893. Thirty years later forty
two horses were landed in Florida, but
they all died soon after their arrival.
De Soto, who made an expedition to
the new world in 1540-41, left a number
of fine Spanish horses behind him when
obliged TO quit the country after his
conquest of Louisiana, and this stock
is thought to have formed the founda-
ton of the wild horse of the southwest
ern states. In 1904 a French immi-
grant brought to Acadia n number OF
animals from which the modern Cana
dian pony is thought to be descended.
Horses from Flanders were imported
into New York in 1926.

AUDUBON TWENTY YEARS AGO.
A View of the Town Then and
Changes Since.

Changes Since.
Time has worked many changes in
Audubon within the last twenty years,
few then engaged in business still re-
main, the large majority have gone
elsewhere, engaged in other business
or answered to the roll call of time.
Many of the incidents and events of
the early history of our town are almost
forgotten, our memory dimmed, OBJ
scure and imperfect of matters impor-
tant to the people who then composed
this wide awake village. With the
object of calling the attention of those
who then and now are residents, to
inform the more recent citizens, the
new generation that have gone upon
the stage of action in the last two de-
cades, that others may take up this
matter, and by that means secure a
full and complete history of our town
is this article written.
The first Mayor of the town of Au-
dubon was L. j. Freeman, J. l.. Stotts,
recorder; and trustees or councilmen,
j. d. Holmes, A. II. Roberts, p Nc
Kinley, Noah Keller, w. II. Scott and
Wilson Burnside. The first meeting
was held on the 9th day of January,
1881, at which time they passed seven
ordinances and elected Fl. G. Paul
as marshal, these persons having been
elected at special election held their
offices until the first Monday in March,
the time fixed by law for holding the
annual municipal elections. At the
election held on that date j. d. Holmes
was elected Mayor, A. f. Armstrong,
recorder; d. W. Matthias, treasurer;
and the following as councilmen, Evan
Davis, Peter Mckinley, W. II. Scott,
W. G.. Stuart, Noah Keller, and s. II.
Schryver. This council at its first
meeting elected G. A. Spriggs, marshal.
OF the first council we have Freeman,
Roberts and Burnside still residents Of
our town and of the second, or those
connected with it, only d. w. Matthias
is at this time citizen of Audubon,
Holmes and Stuart are dead, Davis in
California, Mckinley and Keller in
South Dakota, Schryver in Chicago and
Scott at South Glenn Falls, New
York. In the grain business were

son Burnside; lumber, A. A, Hubbard
