THRo' KENTUCKY.

I1ro the grand state of Kentucky,
nv, where the odd Home" got its name,
Where the fields are OVERLOOKING
with the yellow ripening grain.
Here tobacco plants are growing.
In the helds not sown with corn.
Tobacco plants-big as cactus
just as sure as you are born.
Yes they're large as good-sized cactus
Larger in our home-like view.
But It's of a fine grade as
Is that old Kentucky Dew"
Here all people reap a harvest,
Money in bank from year to year,
All the green calamity howlers,
Lose their jobs when they land here.
Here the dry" ways are the highways,
Built high and dry from rains and flood,
mere the good roads delegation"
Swear the roads are suit My good.
But OF pixies and highways finest,
mere road" that suits my tastel
i IS the line of Solid Comfort,
And the trains let no time waste.
From Kentucky to ST. Louis,
Operates this road of class.
Across the famous old "Green River
On IFS roadbed smooth as glass.
Would you know the road l speak Off
Listen then to my advice,
For you Il need it in your business,
On your trip TO Paradise.
In your travels to St. Louis
Hustle; beat them under the wire,
Oet the Henderson Route habit
lis a good one to acquire.

Kenosha, Wis, April 2S.-The trus-
tees of the missionary society of the
Methodist Episcopal church have re.
fused to accept the bequest of the late

whose will the church would probably

and it is thought that this is the rea-
son for their declinatiOn.

Senator Stewart, of Nevada, will not be a candidate this time, and Senator Quarle's chances were all re- moved by tho victory of the La Fol- lette faction In Wisconsin. Death took away in Mark Hanna and Matthew Stanley Quay two of the greatest Sem ator- politicians of the times. General Charles Dick is filling the Hanna place. and Philander Knox. late Attor- ney General of the United States is by appointment in the Quay seat and is booked for a full term beginning next March.
 Dietrich, of Nebraska. on account of personal troubles, is out of the run ming from that State, and 1t is said that his successor will very probably be E. J. Burkett. now representing the Lincoln district. Burkett suc- ceeded William Jennings Bryan in the Fifty-s sixth Congress. He is a young CT man than Colonel Bryan, having been born in 1867. He Is regarded as one of the strongest of the younger men of the House and as assured Of a distinguished career. L.. Heisler Ball from Delaware. after a brief part of term will retire next March. He was elected by a compromise which all lowed himself an anti-Addicks man, ana J. Frank Alice. pro-Addicks, to come in afer a long deadlock. The famous Addicks who again strove to buy his way Into the Senate Is again to be disappointed, the result of the Delaware election having blasted his hopes on account of the desertion of his cause by former supporters.

 ferer from them for eight years; but had not been; troubled with them since, until last September, when gave birth to a baby girl and after that l had a severe case of protruding piles. which trained nurse said was the worst case she ever saw. and my doctor told me to did and was completely cured in three days. have not had piles of any kind since, and it is all owing to this won derful remedy. My nurse took box which was glad to be able to give her, for know she will be able to help lots of suffering people whom could never see or know.
 T recommend Pyramids wherever I know of any one suffering as did. It gives me great pleasure to be able to say I am entirely cured, which my doctor says is true. I say God bless Pyramid Pile Cure" From former great sufferer, Mrs. F. s. Ancott. 1206 Unity St., Frankford, Philadelphia. Pa.

CHANGES IN SENATE.
CAUGHT IN THE RE-
 PUBLICAN LANDSLIDE.
Thomas H. Garter May Succeed Paris Gibson of Montana - Other Changes i'm The Upper Body
 of Congress.

Washington. Nov. 14.-(Speciai. J. One of the most surprising of all the amazing incidents of the continental landslide of last Tuesday was the capture of the Missouri leg isiature by so decisive a major ity as to mean the certain retire ment when his term expires on the 4th of March next, of Senator Francis Ma rion Cockrell. He had been long re- garded as one of the invincibles. Ger tainly within his own party he never had opposition since he entered the Senate more than a quarter of cen tury ago. No man commanded greater respect from the opposition party than he. and none in public life in the State had a more decided reputation for popularity in Missouri.
 Cnly a few months ago his thous- ands of friends and neighbors were ardenly supporting him for the Demo- cratic nomination for President and In the St. Louis convention gave vent to their admiration and endorsement in a great tumuIt of enthusiastic acclaim for Cockrell. But while he has soon to step down and out for another man, his elimination from the Senate Is in no sense to be regarded as a personal defeat. It was simply case of a be- ing caught in an avalanche which in lhS eGhGldA nt6nCtCA o"NRS 8"oJ strong and weak alike.
 Senator Cockrelrs retirement will be widely and sincerely regretted. He has always been one of the most dili- gent, conscientious and useful of Sem ators. He was one of the most valu- able committee workers in the Senate and as long a conspicuous member of the Senate Appropriations Committee his counsel and information were in- variably sought by his colleagues of both sides of the chamber.
 In point of continuous service only Senator Allison has a longer time to his credit, the Iowa Senator having entered the Senate March {, 1873, and Senator Cockrell was sworn fin just two years later. so that when his term expires next March he will have served thirty years continuously
 The death of Senator Hoar removed another veteran Senator, his service beginning March. 1871. Senator Nor gan is next in point of continuous ser vice. having entered at the same time. Senator Platt. of Connecticut is the only Senator who came in the 1879 class. There are six other Senators who have served continuously as much as twenty years or more. They are in the order named Messrs. Hale. Haw- ley Frye. Aldrich. Cullom and Teller. Senator Hawley is in extremely poor health and will not again be a candi- date.
 The Senators of the class whose terms expire next March will show no political change. The loss of Mo- Comas, Republican. for Rayner, Dem ocrat from Maryland. is offset by the gain of a Republican for Senator Cock rell, from Missouri. Two Republicans
