Among the new members of the
Sixty third congress none is likely 10
attract more interest than SAINT Kirk
patrick of Ottumwa, who will repre-
sent the Sixth Iowa district in the new
house. He is q Democrat and will sue
ceed to the seat now held by III. f..
Kendall, Republican. He Is nearly
seventy-one years Of age and since
1886 has been an internal revenue Off
Ger, working among the mOOnshiners
and counterfeiterS of the south. The
Hon. SAINT has faced death on many
occasions and bears many scars of bat
tie, but save for the partial loss of eye
sight he is still hale and hearty.
His career as internal revenue agent
has been one of the most remarkable
in the history of the service, both from
the point of accomplishment and mar
row escapes from death. The Hon.
SAINT has destroyed more Illicit diStil-
leries and placed more men in the
penitentiary than any other man in
the United States. In his body he car
ries over a hundred pieces of lead,
mementos Of his clashes with the
moonshiners during his various raids.
He has several times raided the no
torious Sidna Allen gang, which shot
up the court of Carroll county at Hills
Vile, Va, last spring.
Congressman Elect Kirkpatrick serv-
ed throughout the civil war as first
lieutenant OF Company X, Second Iowa
infantry, and is the only civil war
veteran representing Iowa in either
branch of congress.

This game requires at least thirteen
persons. Circles are formed by three
players joining hands. These ere the
holes. In each hole is another player
who is a gopher. One extra player Is
outside and has no hole. At a given
signal from the leader, who may be
any one of the players, all the gophers
have to change holes, aud the one who
is outside tries TO get hole. The one
who Is left out then becomes the home

one of the liver colored sort so COM

maturity when from some unknown
cause it died.-London Express.

Removing Iodine Stains.

A good way to chemically remove 10
dine stains from the hands or linen Is
to wash the stains in strong solution
Of hyposulphite Of sodium, known as
"hypo," which is procurable at any
photographic supply dealers or drug
store. There Is no danger Of using too
strong a solution. but the best results
are obtained with a mixture OF oEe
ounce of hypo to two ounces Of water
Parasols.
Parasols were used by the ancient
Egyptians. They became fashionable
