throughout the world had based

clouds. A veil of thin clouds

The total eclipse, it seems, was
little delayed-that is, it oc

time which had been calculated
for its beginning.
Also, it seems that the total
phase was a few seconds shorter
than SO seconds that had been

we found some lines in the flash

Rurnblings OF Dissatisfaction

When the Democratic county central committee met
shortly after the November election and endorsed various
persons for appontve positions for everything except the
Presidents cabinet sad) 1t started something
1t has been almost month since the night those
endorsements made and still hear rumbngs of
dissatisfaction particularly from who worked hard
curing the campaign who thought they slated for
jobs.
Naturally the committee could not endorse everybody
for the few jobs be filled and believe that it would
have been better had endorsements been made at all
The committee was elected at the September primary
to conduct the fall campaign It did good work and If
had no nedded the job of endorsing after the votes

Der g. there would have been grounds for criticism
The international is of the opinion that the candidates
elected the general election should have the entire as
whom they shall appoint deputies and whether they
follow recommendations Of the county committee is
their own business Office holders responsible for the
offices they hold and they better than else should
know whom teyR want for deputies and whether such
deputies are fully qualified for the jobs An office holder
and not any Of the committeeman will be held to answer
for conduct of his or her office.
Our advice to the next committee elected in 1884 is
to conduct the campaign and refrain from endorsing any
body Selection of deputies should be left entirely to
the successful candidates

 What little collecting he does now, is always with the left hand.

The Washing ton has been in my family for years and years and to sell or trade 1t would be little short of treason" The Washington was acquired by one of the Kansan's relatives at Valley Forge.
 Muckle explained he was in Chicago for one reason--he needs a genuine Ella Boole to round out his political collection. Every time he had encountered Mrs Boole, she was wearing gloves.
