A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
in Institution for W hieti Wiihlnfton
Left Voney nnrt Selected t Mire.
s-, The idea of founding a great uai
varsity at the seat of government ol
the United States is as old as the con
stitution. The subject was considered
by the makers of that instrument, and
it may fairly be inferred from the de
bates that it was dropped only be
cause, under* the clause relating to
the District of Columbia, congress
had amplfe power to found a univers
ity. Washington took such interest
in the project that he bequeathed to
the nation in aid of it a sum which at
that time seemed munificent, and
.which would have insured its success
ful foundation had the fund been se
curely and profitably invested.
It is even said that he se
lected on the banks of the
Potomac as a site for the institution
a hill which was afterward occupied
by the old naval observatory, says
Professor Simon Newcomb in the
North American Review. Presidents
have formally recommended the
measure, and philosophers and states
men have shown its expediency. Yet
we have entered upon the second
century of our national existence
without its having advanced beyond
the preliminary stage of a'bill before
congress. A national university at
Washington seem* to me one of -the
most pressing of our public needs,
and one which would long since have
been supplied had not strong reasons
1 in favor of doing so been very gener
i ally overlooked.

AN EXPRESSION

Famous Preacher, Author of “Shots
From the Pulpit,” and Other
Books; Also Founder of the
People’s Chnrch, Omaha.
, Omaha. Neb., March 15, 1897.—I take
pleasure in commending Dr. B. J. Kay and
his work. Dr. Kay is well known in this
' and many other states in the union. I be
lieve him to be an honest and honorable
man, one thoroughly worthy of the confi
dence of the people. Those sending money
to Dr. Kay may rest assured that they will
(receive the medicine ordered. He is a pro
f’emed Christian, and I believe a true one.
h He has been justly noted for his philan
* thropic and Christian work. His gifts at
different times through his life have been
almost princely. I have good reason to
believe that the Dr. Kay's Renovator and
Dr. Kay’s Lung Balm, which he makes and
sells, are valuable to those who need them,
as I nave seen them used with excellent re
sults. Mr. George W. Hervey. editor of
the Omaha Weekly World-Herald, and
quite a number of other Omaha people
have been cnred by these great remedial.

believe that it is deserved.
Sincerely,

Smoking Meat Without Fire.
It may sound absurd to make a state
ment about “smoking meat without a fire,”
for it is a well known saying that “where
there is smoke there must be fire.” The
advance of ^cience, however, has made
this idea obsolete, and today with the use
of Krausers’ Liquid Extract of Smoke it is
possible to quickly, economically and suc
cessfully smoke moat without a fire. This
liquid extract is made by distilling the
smoke from hickory wood and is absolute
ly harmless. In fact, meat smoked by this
method has a genuine smoke flavor, re
mains moist and soft, and is not infested
t with insects. Every objection of the old
method is overcome, every trouble ended
, and the unsightly and dangerous smoke
house is a thing of the past. Krausers’
Liquid Extract of Smoke long ago passed
the age of experiment, and thousands are
using it today with profit and satisfaction.

charge instructive printed matter about
methods,of curing and smoking all kinds
of meats; • e y

FATTY’S FAVOKITE.
HOSE of us who go
mcing (either for
a living or to be
lively) hear a large
nun her of good
stories during our
travels, and laugh
at them in -propor
tion to their merit
and piquancy. Few
can he retold in
discriminately. As
a rule, they are libelous or demoralis
ing—or both. It is not prudent to re
tail them in the family circle before
viators of more or less strong re
ligious convictions.
Happily, the story of "Fatty’s” fa
vorite may be told without fear of
bringing a blush to the cheek of the
youngest or most foolish person.
“Who is he?” was the question peo
ple asked in wonder, as they and he
went on the course probably with a
common purpose (to “get a bit,” as the
mission is called by those who fol
low it); and the reply was invariably
the same, “Fatty,”
That was was all. "Fatty,” pure and
simple; this seemed to satisfy public
curiosity. Further interrogation was
considered adventurous, in view of the
startling facts it might reveal. To
look at him was enough, especially
when he was backing losers.
iruiy, "Fatty was a remarkable
character, unconventional in his life
and customs, also in bis ideas as to
the rights of Individuals, so far as per
sonal property was concerned. What
he wished to have he thought he was
entitled to take, if the'owner's atten
tion was diverted: and no man was
cleverer than he in diverting owners’
attention when there was anything to
be taken by doing so.
Not a person of high principle, he
could afford to purchase the luxuries
of the season in sufficient abundance
to gratify his appetite, which was im
mense. To many persona of the high
est principle such luxuries are un
known.
When in his best form “Fatty” ac
complished notable feats. His favorite
maneuvers were executed on the race
course. He was quite at home there,
and moved about, both in the ring and
paddock, with immunity from assault.
A friend told me this story about
“Fatty” in confidence—hence I pass it
on in the same spirit. We were return
ing from Camptown steeplechases after
a bad day, and were bemoaning our
anaemic condition.
“This is no game,” I remarked, “for
honest, well-meaning men;” and I
vainly hunted for the remnants of a
cheap cigaret which I hoped had not
been thrown away in better times.
“Yes, It’s a poor game,” said my
companion,“when one loses one’s mon
ey In order to maintain one’s rectitude
of purpose. Now look at ‘Fatty,’ ” he
added, after s pause, rather inconse
quentially; “you never hear him com
plain of his bad luck. It is those who
have been playing with him who lift
up their voices.. He knows very well
that luck wouldn’t keep him in grease
for his moustache and boots.”
“But some of us are afraid of prison,”
I murmured regretfully.
• “Well, just listen to a short account
of what ‘Fatty’ did the other day, and
then talk about prisons if you like. Of
course, you know that at one time he
kept a small coffee shop in the east
end of London, and now bets in thou
sands. That denotes the master mind.
He is called ‘Fatty’ because of his
stomachic protuberance, not in refer
ence to any other personal distention.
RODE A FINISH.
He looks at you, as it were, from be
hind a flour-b^g, especially when wear
ing a white waistcoat, and he talks to
you as though he would fall backwards
if you pushed against it. O, yes! he’s
very hot, is ‘Fatty.’ He’s had his ups
and downs, and has always faced the
music bravely, whether he’d a shirt on
his back or a scarf round his neck.
He’s made money, too, by backing ’em
on the course.’’
From personal experience I knew
that was true, and I could not help re
flecting that a man must be clever to
make money at a sport by which most
of us lose our little all and what we are
able to borrow. Yet such a man is, no
doubt, more than clever; he does not
mind what he does.
My idea Is that the wealthy punters
are those who, if they cannot find win
ners, find something else of value, and
do not necessarily wait until it is lost.
But the last paragraph may be treat
ed as a philosophical digression, hav
ing no relation to the story, which was
continued by my friend as follows:
“Then ‘Fatty,’ after a brilliant coup,
got some racehorses of his own. He
was tired of backing other people's
gee-gees, and wished to try how he
could work them under his own pro
prietorship and supervision. He had
no desire to own high-class horses. He
knew that money could be made out of
little races sb well as out of big, only
with greater certainty. He had not a
soul above platers; his argument was
that you can win as much with a bad
horse as with a good one if you can
back him with confidence to beat
worse."
“Incontrovertible," I remarked, in
terrupting the story for a moment;
“but I never could find worse than
mine. Nobody ever had such bad ones
aa those which I collected with great
care at a small expense.”
"No one ever accused you of knott
ing the game,” said my friend, severe
ly. “You should only go out with a
barrel organ and a monkey, being tied
to.lts tall. You might be clever enough
to take the pennies if the donors placed
them in your hand, closed it over them
tenderly, and swore you to secrecy.
But ‘Fatty’ was a perfect tradesman.
He was after the nimble nlnepence
every time. He used to back his
platers when it was good enough to dtf
so; when not, he used to let other peo-'
pie back them, and Invest his money
on something else. It is, a beautiful'
game so long as you can, play it with
out danger from the mob or froq^the
stewards.” ‘
"Who was ‘Fatty’s’ trainer?” I asked,”
feeling confident that position was not
M ''OlUvuUI Vi
"Why, surely you know," retorted the
historian. “ ‘Fatty’ would, ot course^
only have one sort of trainer—a man
who.wpulddo as he was told without,
asking questions. Old Jerry Smlgginrf:
of Ripston, realized his ideal ot that
character. You remember Jerry—he
always seemed to be trying to ‘best’
somebody, and was generally in debt.
Talk about the very ‘warm’ members,
he could give most of them a start ovei*
what is called ‘a rogue’s course,’ andj
make hacks of ’em when it came to
pure thieving. I should not like to bd
a dying man engaged in cuddling my
money-bags for the last time if Jerry
were in the sick chamber watching my
struggles. He would accelerate my
doom to obtain the treasure.”
“And how did his employer trust
him?” I Inquired, for I had a little
knowledge of the Ripston trainer, and
recognized that the elegant simile as
to the peril o'! the moribund person
toying with his cash deposits was not
an exaggeration. Indeed, Jerry would
no doubt have also removed any false
teeth that might have been in the un
fortunate person’s jaws, so as to get
the gold to bet with.
“Trust him,” replied my informant;
“well, you know how far such men
trust each other. Like one hungry dog
trusts a hungrier one in sight of an
odorous bone. So long as both could
get a bite they do not worry each other
as to which secured the most pestifer
ous portion. They went on well for a
time, and ‘Fatty’s’ nose reflected his
prosperity to a marked extent; It
beamed upon us in the paddock and as
sumed more colossal proportions and
brighter tints as its owner put on
flesh and added to his balance at the
bank. Then came the picturesque in
cident at Camptown Park previously
hinted at.”
Here the orator took breath and ex
panded his chest before embarking on
the more exciting part of his recital.
Refreshed by the rest, he continued:
“ ‘Fatty’ had one of his platers in a
selling race at Camptown, and on the
book it had a great chance. According
ly, the public made his horse favorite,
and backed it down to even money in
a large field of runners. ‘Fatty’ could
not stand that; he did not care for
even money chances. So, after confer
ring with his trainer, he gave him in
structions to the effect that the favor
ite need not exert himself unduly in
the race, and that precautionary meas
ures might wisely be adopted with that
end (the wrong end) in view. Having
arranged matters to his satisfaction,
the astute owner of the favorite went
into the png and backed a horse which
he believed was a certainty while his
candidate enacted the part of spectator.
A Jockey who would listen to reason
when it took the form of ready money
was riding the favorite. Therefore it
was that when the horse cantered to
the post ‘Fatty’ felt slightly above him
self—his usual sensation when he con
sidered that he was backing one cer
tainty in a race, and laying against
another certain not to'win.
“The result of the race, however, wsb
not what he desired. The favorite had
more in hand than his owner or train
er thought. His Jockey could not quite
hold him; thus he found himself near
home in view of the public before he
was able to get a pull. It was then too
late, pull as hard as he could. People
would see him; he might be warned
off. Naturally fearing that disaster,
he sat down and rode a finish ot con
siderable merit, making a dead heat
of it. You may imagine his employ
er’s awful sensations. He had backed
one of the dead-heaters to win a large
stake; he, had laid against the other
to lose a lot of money!
“Then Jerry Smiggins appeared in
the paddock, and held conference with
his patron. The result seemed satis
factory to the latter; he whispered a
few words to his trainer, and Jerry
hurried away again as though on a
mission of Importance. It was so, for
that dead heat was never run off!”
“They agreed to divide?" I asked; In
nocently, having no idea at that time
what bad men will do to get money.
“Agreed to divide!” repeated my
friend, with scornful emphasis. “Fancy
‘Fatty’ dividing anything with any
body when he had a chance of collaring
the lot! When the time arrived for
running*bff the dead heat the favorite
could not be found. Jerry had been
to the stables surreptitiously and lost
him!”
This, like other things, is, I am in
formed, easily done when you know
how to do it. “Fatty” still goes racing,
and is far fatter 'than ever, especially
underneath his white waistcoat. But
the public do not rush after his hot
favorites now; and some of the punt
ers—those who bet for a living and live
well at times—-declare that they can
afford to lose when “Fatty” wins.—In
