ASSISTANT REPUBLIcANs.

Ex-senator James X. Jones, who
managed the Democratic campaign in
1896 and 1900. says the Populists are
simply Assistant Republicans. He also
says that they are spending consid-
cradle money, and intimates that the
Republicans are furnishing it. 1t is
evident that the Populists are not fur
nishing it, They know very well that
their party has no chance of winning,
and, hence, they wouldn't spend any
thing upon the campaign.
The Republicans, however, are inter-
ested in having the Populists get as
many votes as possible in the doubt

votes gained by the Populists will be

Democrats TO follow him. OF course
he knew no Democrats would follow
him. but he also knew that he could,
in all probability, get a good many
who had been Populists to vote the
Populist ticket. He said plainly in that
speech that he preferred Roosevelt to
Parker, and he is saying that now in
the speeches he is making. Therefore,

TALKED POLITICS TO PARROT.

From the Philadelphia Record.
New York, Sept 1.-THE first SER
ious political row of the campaign took
place early this morning at Eight ave-
nue. and One Hundred and Twenty
fourth street, and resulted in both dis
putants being locked up. The Demo-
cratic defendant said he was John
Mangin, of No. 464 West One Hun
dred and Thirty-fifth street. The Re
publican "scrapper'' refused to give his
name or address. He could talk, but,
being a parrot, of course, refused to
do so when he was expected to.
Mangin has just purchased the par
rot from a Republican and was trying
to convince him to the virtues of Judge
Parker when Policeman Taylor inter-
fered because of the commotion. But
I'm tellin' the brute said Mangin,
that Parker is tn best mon the Dim
micrats have nominated in four years"
mot on yer life" yelled the parrot.
GO somewhere else and fight it out, "
commanded Taylor.
mot on yer life," said man and par
rot together
I'm going to choke the Raypubli-
can ideas out of his gizzard," declared
the Democrat.
Not on yer life," yelled the Roose-
welt bird.
Policeman Taylor took man and bird
to the police station where they were
locked up for creating a disturbance.

She was Too Cantiou..

A Minnesota wonan-a teacher in
college circles-came to Chicago to visit
a prominent public institution and learn
something of its methods of instruction,
says the Chicago Record Herald. She
had been informed that some of the
faculty would meet her at the depot.
When the day came for her visit the
president of the institution informed
the faculty that he would meet Miss
+. with his own carriage and bring
her safely to them. He was chaffed
not a little by the others, he being
bachelor and quite an admirer of Miss
3. educational'work, although he had
never met her.
On her part the Minnesota woman
had read luTid reports of Chicago, and
she could not have been more on the
defensive if she had fallen into den
of thieves. Therefore, when a rotund
man rather caTelessly dressed, ap-
preached her. whip in hand, she turned
her back on him.
Are you going to the - institute ?"
he asked, forgetting the distinguished
woman's name in his surprise at his
reception.
Yes. But I shall not need your
services" and she stalked past him.
Il beg your pardon, 1 am"
Yes, 1 know. You are one of those
Chicago hackmen, and 1 haven't any
use for you. I don't want to see where
the tunnel caved in nor buy the Mason
ic building"
But, madam
Don't you madam me. I'm a re-
spectacle single woman, and I'll call
the police if you speak to me again"
He went back to the waiting educa-
tors and told them the woman from
Minnesota had missed her train. He
had just finished relating his expert
ences when she drove up in a dilapi-
dated hack. and, pointing to him with
her umbrella, said:
That's the very same hackman that
/ saw at the depot. I dare say he
would have brought me up cheaper, but
you can't be too careful in a place like
Chicago"

CnINA,s COTTON CROP.

What is the size OF Chinas cotton
crop? The popular impression is that
it isn't very large. but here we have
the American Cotton Manufacturer of
Charlotte, n. C., asking whether Chi
mas crop isn't about as large as that
of this country, if in fact, it isn't
larger
The. way the American Cotton Man
ufacturer argues is that there are 400
100000 people in China and that they
depend almost wholly on cotton for
their clothing. Where does it come
from? They get some cotton and
some cotton cloth from this country
and some cotton from India. But
what they import isn't anywhere near
enough to supply their demand
The conclusion is that they grow it.
Tho American Cotton Manufacturer
says it is not improbable that China's
cotton crop is larger than that of this
country-that it is as much as 12,000,-
900 bales. 1t is pointed out that China's
cotton never reaches her ports, nor her
A'"4 - 4AiNNA ~ iiAeeA tNNN'3 iioA even tiAC
towns. It is grown on little patches of
less than an acre, and is manufactured
in the homes of the people by hand.
If q farmer has a surplus of a few
pounds he disposes of it to his neigh
Dor and gets some article he wants in
exchange. Thus. the American Manu-
facturer suggests, great crop of
cotton is consumed each year, crop
of which the world knows nothing.
If the result of the war between
Russia and Japan should be to open up
China. wouldn't this great cotton crop
Of THAI country assuming there is
such a crop, have to be manufactured
in mills? The cotton cloth could be
manufactured att so much less cost in
mills than in homes that all the cot
ton would be forced to the mills
However, there is a strong probable
ity that the American Cotton Manufac-
turer is wrong in supposing China's
cotton crop is so large. Such a crop
could hardly fail to attract the atten-
ton of travellers and missionaries.
There is very little of China that is
unknown land

Tsi Ans Grim Humor.

While the disposition of the empress
dowager seems to have been remark
ably softened since the Boxer troubles,
occasionally we hear a story of the
grim humor with which she treats some
of her officials. says the Washington
Star. Ii Lien Ying was attacked with
fever not long ago, and her majesty
summoned a half dozen of the most
eminent native physicians to attend
him.
After a diagnosis of his case and a
consultation they furnished the venera-
BILE despot a written certificate that their
patient was suffering from only tri-
fling indispesition and was in no danger
whatever. Her majesty returned her
thanks for the gratifying assuranc and
instructed her Secretary to require
from them a written guarantee that they
would restore Ii to complete health.
AS Ii is a man of advanced age and
is beginning to show the ordinary in
firmities of his years, the unfortunate
physicians found themselves in a very
bad box, and if he should die their
lives would be the forfeit.

FAIRY HEEL wEDGED IN SLOT.

from the New 4ork Press.
Those French heels were as tiny as
any that ever twinkled in the lights
of Broadway, and as the daintily
gowned young woman started to cross
that thoroughfare at Thirty-fourth
street last night men were moved by
a sense of the purely artistic to stop
and watch her.
They were amazed when they saw
her halt suddenly between the rails
of the westerly track. Traffic was at
its hight. A couple of cab horses had
to be jerked back sharply, almost on
their launches, to avoid striking the
girl. Down Broadway bowled car at
high speed.
Get out of the way!" howled the
motOrman.
The young woman only waved her
left hand at him.
Don't stop there!" shouted Pa
trolman Walsh. But she did stop
there. So he ran out and demanded
she tell what she meant by tying up
traffic in that wav.

Oh, I never was in such a fix"
She lifted her skirts just enough to
display those French heels, and-well
Walsh got down on one knee and saw
why she had halted. One tapering
heel had become wedged in the slot
There's one of two things to be
DONE" said Walsh. cut off the heel
and spoil the shoe or unlace it,
"UnIace it," said she. He obeyed,
and she withdrew her foot. Then
Walsh wriggled the shoe free. She
slipped it on again, thanked Walsh
profusely and scurried toward Fifth
avenue.

if wore such heels at that I'd use a
