May Never See Aqain.

Passaic, N. J. Aug. 22.-William Tense. thirteen years old, is in danger of losing his sight as result of an experiment in fishing The lad con- ceived the idea of blowing fish out of the water with lime and catching them with a net. His plan was to half fill the bottle with lime, put in a little water and put in cork and drop the bottle where the fish were likely to be. The boy fixed his bottle near his home. He did not consider that the lime and water would cause so quick an explosion. After pouring a little water in the lime the boy corked the bottle but when he removed his hand the cork shot back striking him in the face and the lime gushed out and burn ed his face and eyes so badly that he may never see again.

ocratic party from the time, in 1893, of its last national administration.
 During this administration, he said, 'it repealed the Mckinley tariff bill, passed in 1890, and enacted the Gorman-Wilson tariff bill of 1893 With the prospect of Democratic tariff for revenue and under the operation of the IGorman-Wilson tariff bill, subse- quently, passed, a period of industrial depression set in. which continued through the next presidential cam. paign of 1896. The remedy for this depression as proposed by Democratic party under its leadership of change from the gold standard of currency and value, which was the measure of all pecuniary obligations, to the silver standard--was change which would have sealed the debts of all by quite 50 per cent and would have produced a financial crash in which business disaster would only have been exceed. ed by injury to our national financial honor."
 As soon as the Republican party came into power in 1897, he said, it re- pealed the Gorman-Wilson tariff bill. and enacted the present Dingley tariff law. and with the assurance of an honest money standard of confidence was restored and period of business expansion and prosperity followed to an extent never before known in the history of the world.
 Judge Taft said the dishonesty of some prominent men entrusted to transact the business of others and greed of financial power on the part of others developed bad situation. He praised President Roosevelt for efforts to curb the growing evil

OUR DEVILS"
BASEBALL PROVERB

Our office "devil," who is a
philosophic baseball enthusiast,
hands in the following list Of
what he calls baseball proverbs:
He who hcsitates is out.
A closed glove catches no flies
Strike while the pitcher is
hot.
A fool and his base are soon
parted.
It's a short game that has no
kicking.
Never look a gilt pitcher in
the mouth.
o! the making errors there is
no end.
Two strikes is company,
three is a roast.
It's a poor bat that won't
work both ways.
If at first you don't succeed
try the outfeld.
There are no good umpires
except dead umpires.
If wishes were home runs,
beggars would root.
Don't catch your catches be-
fore theysare catched.
It's a wise child that knows
how to keep a score card.
Money makes the mauager 20
land exchange players,
He who hits and runs away
will live to hit another day.
Make FIRST base while the sun
shines in the pitchers eyes.
Outfelders, like inhelders,
come home to roost-on the UNI
pies neck.
Where ignorance is bliss
'twere folly to attract the um.
pres attention.
