WHAT'S THE ANTI-MEAD ANSWER?

PROGRESSED political enemies of Gov. Mead not

that the governor should not and cannot be renominaed
Naturally the ordinary citizen is prone to ask Why

expended more money under his administration than

and necessary public convenences to show for it. The
figures are public property and open to inspection.
Sfed down to the last analysis the fight against the
governor back to attacks on his appointments.
Trace these down and you reach the source somebody

TME KING AND TNuE G.AIp1uTWE

King Dorio, of Baldarland, sat
debating the most momentuous OF
questions. 1t was the matter of the
length of his new blue robe for the
feast of st. Michael. Bimbi, the
chamberlain, maintained that 60
inches was the proper length, while
the clown, Obalmo, held out for six
feet.
The king had fretted for an aw-
full hour, when suddenly he bawled
out:

OF sixteen regiments and a cheva-
lier of a mess of orders, should

choosing of a dish of meat for our
royal glutton-feasts. Give me one

The young king sank back into
his jewelstudded throne, mutter-
ing; but all the courtiers huddled
without, for their monarch had not
spoken so before.
Fetch in a wild boar of Pomer-
ania and we will scare him,
Obalmo, the fool, suggested; but
they drowned him with Mays"
''Then let him order our good

OLD VOLCANO
 GETS MOVE ON
St. Augustine, Long Extinct, Be- comes Active and Makes a
 Mighty Fire Display.

On the night of the 10th inst. as Captain z. Moore oi the steamer Dora was making his return trip from Una Iaska to Seward, he saw in the distance what seemed to be fireworks on a very extensive scale. Immediately taking his bearings the captain found he was sixty-three miles off Chonobora island and the fires which lighted the heavens above came from the previ- ously long extinit volcano St Angus tine. As the molten mass within the mountain was thrown up by internal forces of the earth, the outer crust was parted and the red glow of the melted mass cast it's lights far upward on the smoke and clouds above. This was followed by intervals of darkness caused by the subsistence of the vio- canic action. Then again the heaven above would glow with the reflection of the light from earth's mighty fur mace making as fine a display of na- ture's fireworks as has ever been seen in this part of the world.
