THE STRUGGLING FOREIGNER
How Ho Gets Things Twisted When
Ho First Comes to This
Country.

Boys and girls who are born in this
country and lmbibe knowledge OF its in
stltutions and Its geography with their
everyday compensation have difficulty in
passing examinations on them in school.
1t is little wonder, then, that the immi-
grants described in the New York Tribune
have trouble with their examinations when
they apply for naturalization papers
How is the president elected" one of
them was asked recently.
The applicant squirmed as if his memory
was about to collapse. Then a gleam OF
intelligence came into his eyes and he said:
by big-a machority."
A native of Denmark, ig-boned and
haxen haired, was asked how many state,
there are in the union.
New York, New Chicago, New Boston,
New Jersey and lot more" he replied
On further questioning it was found that
he had gathered that the name of the state
was that OF the town with New" pre-
fixed.

DIGNITY TOOK A TUMBLE.
An Illustrative Instance of the Inad-
visibility of Carrying Ones
Nose Too High.

The crude humor that makes the small
boy want to throw stone at silk hat
on a man bristling with dignity is not to
be disposed of as a mere ill-conceited
prank of youth. There is deep in most
people spring of irrepressible humor
that bubbles up when conscious dignity
gets fair tumble, says London Tit-Bits
That is why, for all the solemnity of the
place, the soberest charity and the best
bred propriety in the world could not
prevent litter at little farce that hap
pened once in certain church.
A gentleman and his wife, who were
offended at something the preacher said,
gravely rose and stalked toward the
door, with their heads held high in as
sertive disdain. The wife followed the
husband. Unfortunately, when they
were halfway down the aisle, the hus-
band dropped his glove, and stopped to
pick it up.
Fate, the humorist, determined that
the wife should keep her head so high
that she did not see her husband stoop
She went sailing on, and tumbled over
him in dire confusion. The congregation
held it's breath and kept it's composure.
The two recovered themselves and went
on.
Hoping to escape quickly, they turned
to what looked like side door. The
husband pulled it open with an impress
sive swing Before he could close it out
tumbled a window pole, long duster,
and a step-ladder. The congregation
could contain it's mirth no longer, and
man and wife fled to the real exit in un-
dignified haste, amid general and un-
controllable litter.

SLAUGHTER of Rabbits in Oregon.

,"It is worth the trip to see a rabbit
drive in eastern Oregon" said J. F. Nc
Naught, of Seattle, 'The farmers drove
10000 rabbits into space no larger
than that lawn at one l saw few days
ago." pointing to the circular lawn in
the court in front of the Portland hotel.
''The cannery people pick out the best,
cut off their heads with a cleaver and
take them away. They do not can more
but they kill the rest of them, and the
farmers haul them away ard feed them
to the hogs."-Portland Oregonian.

People Talked About.

The two young ladies who gave
their excellent entertainment at
Reeds opera house last evening
have strong claims on the people Of
Grant county. AS is well known,
Miss MacCawley is a Platteville
girl, a niece Of the well known
veteran lawyer, W. H. Beebe, and
Mrs. Sam Greene Of this city. Miss
Kellogg, though not a Grant county
girl, is a niece of one of our most
illustrious citizens, the late John
III. Sarles of Boscobel.is Besides,
she is granddaughter of the late
Bob Rice, a brilliant and attrac-
tive character, who started a Demo-
cratic paper here in Lancaster in
1872 to help Horace Greeley try
for the presidency. Many Of the
old line Republicans voted for
Greeley, but not enough to beat
Gen. Grant.

soon after. Smith and his wire had not
been living together for a year. OF the
entire family only a 3-year-old child
survives.
Joseph Smith, Pollock salt litter,
employed at Butterville, made a fierce
and unexpected assault upon Jay
Bacon, fellow workman and Grip
pie. The latter was rendered uncon-
scious by several terrific blows over
the head with a heavy club. The two
men had quarreled previously. Smith
ran away after the assault, but was
pursued. Fearing capture, he plunged
into the lake and started to swim to
Ludington, nearly mile distant. Men
followed in boat, however, and capt

The Worlds Champion.

The Ebensburg, Pa, Mountaineer
has the following to say regarding
the rifle shooting of Mr.. T. H. Ford:
Zone of the most entertaining and
skillful exhibitions was the fancy
rifle shooting of Mr.. T. H. Ford.
Articles thrown in the air such as
pennies, small bullets, and even
half bullets were hit with the great
est ease by Mr. Ford while holding
his gun in various positions, left
and right handed. Cards were shot
through edgewlse, pins picked off
from a stick, and the ashes shot
from cigar held in a mans mouth.
Among the positions of the gun
were upside down, resting on the
head; and the positions taken by
the shooter were, among others,
lying on his back, standing on his
head and on his head and feet. It
was truly the most wonderful ex-
hibition Of shooting that we have
ever seen, and we believe that Mr..
Ford is within doubt the champion
shot Of the world, as there does not
seem to be anything that can be
done with the gun that he cannot
do"
Mr.. Ford will positively appear

Texas Bill Wild West which comes
