THE REPUBLICAN
OUTLOOK IN KENTUCKY
H.ouisville Post

OUTLOOh IN MEN MUM l.
louisville Post.)
We find in the GEORGETOWN Sentin'
ell, Republican newspaper, an article
on the probable state ticket. Discuss
ing the situation in Louisville, the
Sentinel says:
Although Louisville has two can
didates for governor, there are ele-
ments of unsvailability in both that
do not reflect upon their ability or
character. The Hon. A. K. Wilson
would be entirely satisfactory to Re-
publioans Of the state, but in Louis
Vile ne will be resolutely opposed by
strong wing of the party whose
nominations he defeated at the polls a
few years ago This opposition will
undoubtedly be carried to the polls in
November, and would render the
Louisville district doubtful when 1t
ought, with harmony and satisfaction,
to furnish q Republican majority Of
from 1900 to 1000. Col. Morris
Belknap, the other Louisville candi-
date, is one Of the best known busi-
ness men OF that city, but is compare
lively unknown in state politics, Is
nothing of campaigner and his NOM
ination will be wholly an experiment
The strength he will develop in Louis
Vile will be due TO the opposition tC
Nh. Wilson IN the absence of any
other candidates satisfactory to thu
rank and file. Col. Belknap's strength
is all negative. which may or may no
be an advantage"
What is here said personally of Mr.
Wilson and Col Belknap is well said
, Indeed, it can be amplified in boil
: instances. Col. Belknap has higl
position in the business community
He was long identified with the Louis
I Vile Legion. He has for years bee
member of the psrk commission
Whom the call came for soldiers :

The people of Servia seem to be re-

sassination of the royal family, or as
much of it as was deemed necessary,
smacks strongly of the middle ages.
It is a little too far away, however,
to apply the Monroe doctrine.

Since New Decatur, Ala. has come
INTO the league much speculation as
to the strength Of her team has been
made. New Decatur is not quite large
enough to support team in the Cot
ton States leaguc but has excellent
players. Several OF the fastest games
ever recorded have been played in
Alabama and it Is thought that this
new town will come in with team
that will discount all others.

YANKEE INVENTIONS.
Chfneac Newspaper in the Philip pines Describes an Ingenious
 American Contrtvance.

Admiral Dewey was prominent figure at the Saratoga races. Uusually he occupied box. One afternoon little party of farmers came up to shake hands with him, and there after, naturally, the talk turned to agricul- ture, says the Boston Post
 When l was in the Philippines, said Ad- miral Dewey, am American resident brought me, one day, Chinese paper He said this paper would interest me because it con tained an account of an American invention. Then, with a smile, he translated para graph that ran something like this
 :" The ingenuity of the Yankee is typifed well in hen's nest that he has recently in. vented and patented. This nest increases the laying capacity of the hens to an nn- limited degree. In the bottom of it there is 3 trap door, governed by delicate spring. The hen lays an egg, the weight of which causes the trap door to open, whereupon the egg drops down into subterranean com partment, and the door closes very swiftly and silently again. The hen gets up, turns to look at the egg, but sees none there. So she decides that she must be mistaken in thinking she had laid, and she sits down again and deposits another egg, which, like its predecessor, disappears. The process continues indefinitely :"

Where His MuIeshfp Thriyes.

The mule is more generally distrib- uted over South America than any oth- CT of the continents, being found there everywhere excepting along part of the hot, damp coast between Pernam- buco and Rio Janeiro; and he is also practically unknown in tho Guanas. the Amazon basin and Terra del Fue- go. His home covers perhaps fifth as much area as that of the horse. There are few mules around our great lakes, excepting along their southern shores, but from the lakes the animal extends southward to the straits of Magellan. His home in all temperate and hot countries is practically co-ex- tensive with that of the horse, but it does not extend nearly as far north as the horses range, and he is not found in the deserts.

ACTING THE PAR T.
The Bride Did Not Want People to
 Know They Were Newly Married Couple.

Now, Henry" said the bride, accord ing to London Tit-Bits, "I want you to understand distinctly that do not wish to be taken for bride. I am going to act exactly as if were an old married woman. So, dearest, do not think me cold and unloving if I treat you very practically when there is anybody by"
 T don't believe I can pass for an old married man." said Henry. ''I am so fond of you that am bound to show it. I am sure to betray myself"
 No, you mustn't. It's easy enough. And insist that you behave just like all old married men do. Do you hear?"
 Well, darling, I'll try. but know I shall not succeed"
 On the first evening of their arrival at their hotel the bride retired, and the groom fell in with a whist party, with whom he sat playing cards until four o'clock in the morning. His wife spent the weary hours in weeping. At last he turned up, and met his grief-stricken bride with the hilarious question: "Well, ain't doing the old married man like daisy?"
 She never referred to the subject again, and everybody in future knew that they had just been married

TO THE PORT OF DREAMS.

NOW, where will we go W hen the sun is low And sending its dying gleams? Ahoy! and hail For the spreading sail!
 Ana now for the Port of Dreams. Ano m where is the Port of Dreams? you say. lts there in the sleepy sea, Anu lar from the Land of Workaday it peckons to you and me ire Fort we may see if we close our eyes II rests meath the silent moon Anu preezes are whispering lullabies mat float from it in a croon. So where will we go when the sun is low
 Ana purple with fading beams? Ahoy for the ship And the peaceful trip
 Afar to the Port of Dreams, But who is to guide us? you ask That's
 true
 There's no one but you and l. And We are the captain, and mate. and
 crew;
 So steer by the sunset sky To where drowsy poppies have closed the
 way,
 And then as we sail along A voice from the Land of the End of Day Will chant us a sleepy song ., where will we go When the sun is low
 And lazy the whole world seems? Our course we will run By the westering sun
 And into the Port of Dreams. Chicago Daily Tribune

UNDULY CAUTIOUS.
Infinite Precaution as Exemplified by the Trained Newspaper
 Reporter.

An American contemporary, having been cast Tn heavy damages for incautious report ing, declares that it will be more reserved in it's statements in future, relates London Tit Bits, and asks it's readers how they like the following specimen:
 An alleged mad dog, said to be the proper ty of an alleged butcher in Atlantic avenue, is said to have broken his chain yesterday afternoon and attacked the alleged daughter of Herman Jost, who claims to be cigar maker in that street. It will be remembered whose name could not be learned, was arr rested some l6 months ago for an alleged as- sault on his alleged wife with an alleged brick, and he was sent to the penitentiary for, 1t is stated, the alleged term of two years, but was pardoned at the expiration of a term of months by the alleged governor of the state."
