HISTORIC SADDLE IN MUSEUM
japanese Enperor's Gift to General
Grant Now in San Francisco
Presented by Son.

San Francisco.-One of the most
notable donations recently received at
the Memorial museum in Golden Gate
park was presented to the museum
the other day by U. S. Grant, Jr. It
is an ancient Japanese lacquered sad
die, the gift of the Emperor Of Japan
to General U. S. Grant when the lat
ter was making his tour of the world
The saddle, according to Curator
Barron, is about four hundred years
old, and was used by one of the
famous Samurai warriors of four CEN
turtles ago. 1t will be given a con-
spicuous place at the museum, next to
cabinet of Japanese curios which
was presented by the same Japanese
emperor to President Lincoln.
The gift of the saddle is regarded
by Curator Barron as a striking evil
dence Of the interest which is being
taken in the Park Memorial museum.

T0 HE Metropolitan hotel, for more
than century southern headquar-
ters at the national capital, with a
history almost as long as that of the
city itself, has closed it's doors for
want of new tenant. The last pro
prietors did not ask for a renewal of
their lease because of the loss in
traffic caused by the demolition Of the
old Pennsylvania railroad station,
and the diversion Of transients to
points nearer the new Union terminal
AS the Indian Queen Tavern, the
traffic center of the old stage-coach
days, the hotel began it's career at the
time of the administration of Thomas
Jefferson. From the courtyard in
front of the old building the Baltimore
and Philadelphia coaches started each
morning, and thrice 9. week a coach
left for the old National road line to
Frederick, Cumberland and Pittsburg.
In ante-bellum days the servants
were all slaves and one of the pecu-
liar customs was the method of sum-
moning guests to dinner. A negro
boy was sent forth at mealtimes with
a huge gong which he pounded for
ten minutes as he paraded.

CHAMP CLARK ON THIN ICE.

Champ Clark, the Missouri CON
gresham who hopes to be the next
speaker OF the National house OF
representatives, in case there should
be democratic majority IL that
body, has placed himself in a
rather cheap and ridiculous position.
Speaker Cannon recently declared
that Clark had favored free wool in
a speech in Congress, to which
Champ retorted that for proof of
this statement he wonld pay $1,000
to any charity the speaker might
name, Mr. Cannon simply turned
TO the pages OF the Congressional
Record and found that on the 21st
of March last in a speech in the
House, denounced the wool tariff as
q burden and an imposition. In
the progress of his speech he was
asked by Congressman Longworth
it he meant all of the wool schedule.
Answering Mr.. Longworth, Mr.
Clark said: II think it would be a
blessing to the American people if it
was all wiped out of that schedule. ="
Mr.. Longworth then said that he
understood the gentleman from
Missouri to mean that he would ia
vor Ohe wiping out of all wool tariffs,
and Mr.. Clark let the subject go at
that.
Now when confronted by Mr..
Cannon with the record the would
DE speaker says his language on that
occasion did not mean a promise to
vote for free wool, but just an opin-
ion that free wool would be a good
thing if we could get it, which we
can't, so long as we need tariffs to
raise revenues And of course he
declines to pay the $1,000 to charity

Editors--An Essay.

thing to say about them and editors
in the Bible. I think the editor is
one of the missing links you read of,
and stayed in the bushes until after
the flood; and then came out and
wrote the thing up, and has been
here ever since. | don't think he
ever dies. / never saw dead one

ed. Onr paper is mighty good
one; but the editor goes without
undercloths all winter and don't
wear any SOCKS and paw amt paid
his subscription since the paper
started. asst paw if that was why
the editor had to suck the juse out of
snow balls in winter and 90 to bed
when he had his shirt washed in
summer. And then paw took me
out into the woodshed and he licked
me awful hard. If the editor makes
a mistake folks say he ought to be
hung; but if doctor makes any
mistakes he buries them and people
dassent say nothing because doctors
can read and write latin. When
the editor makes a mistake there
is lawsuits, and swearing and a big
fuss; but If a doctor makes one
there is a funeral, cut flowers and
perfek silence. A doctor can use
word yard long without him or
anybody else knowing what 1t
means; but If the editor uses one he
has to spell it. IF the doctor goes to

for the visit; but if the editor goes
he get charge of buckshot Rapid

THE SURRENDER OF DIETz.

The elimination Of the DietZ
affair in Sawyer county in the sur.
render of John Dietz last Saturday
afternoon to the officers who we're
besleging his ca bin at Cameron dam
was a satisfactory and the only
sensible ending of the hOstllities
that have existed for number OF
days past, but unfortunately he
delayed his surrender until after
one of the deputy sheriffs had been
killed, presumably by a rifle shot
from the cabin. and a charge for
murder may be what Deitz viii now
have to face. There is no question
but that the sympathies of a large
number of people were with Dietz,
the common belief being that he
had been abused and prosecuted by
the big lumber company whose
plans he had thwarted by his stub
born determination and his bravad }
in driving off all opponents at the
point of his rifle.
Pubic sympathy nearly always
goes out to 1.-The under dog in the
fight" and Dietz has been magnifed
into quite hero, seeming very de
sirous of notOriety and to pose as a
martyr driven to desperation, but
regardless of whether or not he got
fair treatment in his business
trouble or civil trials, the indis-
putable fact remains that his resist

mitted to defy the courts, which are
esta 1lished for the benefit and pro

to become a law unto himself, the

WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC :?

Chiropractic is the only method
that removes the cause of disease,
without drugs or knife.
Pressure on the nerves is the cause
of disease. Each nerve trunk that
emanates from the spinal cord sup
plies life and vitality to some specific
organ or tissue of the body and as
long as this life giving channel is
preserved in perfect working order
and kept free from distractions in
every way, the inevitable result is,
that the organs or tissues which those
nerves control, or supply, will be
normal.
With interrupted nerve force health
is impossible, therefore good health
can be obtained by taking the pres
sure off from the nerves that are i'm
paired.
l can remove the pressure by a
scientific process of spinal adjustments.
Examination and consultation free.
I will cheerfully give you further
particulars and information you NAV
desire.
