it appears to us that “in all farity,”

by the governor instead.

Tax Luetgert trial is again on in
the 'windy and wicked city of
Chicago, but is attracting little at
tention from either the press or the
publio. The morbid and curious
crowd that stormed the portals of
the court-house during the first trial
has subsided like a tidal wave and is
Qow seeking new sensations in other
fields, indifferent alike to the fate of
Luetgert or his wife. A murder
trial in an American city in these
degenerate days is what the circus
was to Home when the government
was proprietor of a bakery.
Gsxi Moose has been sentenced
to sight years in the penitentiary for
embezzling publio funds during his
terms as auditor of publio aooounts.
Poor Moore! Poor Bartley! We
feel sorry for them. Not sorry that
..they have been found out and sen
. tenoed, but sorry they are guilty.
But their defalcations are sur
rounded by no extenuating circum
stances and cannot be condoned.
They boldly and fearlessly defied
the Divine and human injunction,
“thou shalt not steal,” and are now
. paying the penalty. Theirs are
oases lor regret, not sympathy.
it may be that in the distant
{store some man of the Bryan type
will be elected president, and that
he will be supported by a congress
of his own character, for times come
when voters, even in the thick of
prosperity, clamor for a change.
They can never be so prosperous
that they can’t find a few grievances;
and the orators are always ready to
find new ones for them. And if
sooh a day ever does come, the
chastening that those voters will
receive will last them until they die.
The new democracy stands for all
that is worst in the old democracy,
and in populism; and if it got con
trol of the national government there
would be a panic suoh as no man
living has ever seen. It would be a
blow that would make the country
stagger, and . it would bring about
years of suffering and misery for the
poor; the poor are the ones who are
most' sorely stricken by panics and
•vil times,—Beatrice Express.

Ths New York Commercial Adver
tiser says: The general business
condition, as described in statements
of the mercantile agencies, continues
to improve, especially in that quar
ter from which improvement is
naturally expected—the retail mer
chandise trade. Colder weather in
the west and the decline of the yel
low fever epidemic in the south has
swelled the volume of business to a
degree which is highly favorable for
future railroad traffic returns. The
shipments of wheat from both coasts
last week were $0,653,792, which,
With one exception, is the largest
■ amount for a single week in the his
tory of the country, and is 47 per
cent greater than in 1890, and 56
pw cent greater than in 1895. The
considerable addition to the inter
national trade balance in our favor
;: is enhanced by the immense re
daetson in the import of dry goods
nod merchandise at the port of New
York, which for the week ending
November 20, were $5,009,351,
against $11,183,455 in the oooree
fmiing weak last year.

DON'T HURRY.
A. Timely Word of Warning* to .**••»
ft tinhorn.
Many sudden deaths occur every
year as a consequence of running W
railway trains and ferry boats. The
victims are mostly persons, middio
aged or older, who without knowing
it, bare some disease of the heart.
This kind of over-exertion, how
ever, does less harm than* the com
mon habit of being continually In n
hurry. A habit that keeps the nervous
system at a perpetual tension leads to
excessive vital waste, undue suscepti
bility to disease, and in extreme cases
to nervous exhaustion. Under its in
fluences persons naturally amiable are
transformed into petulant and noisy
scolds.
The woman who is a wife and
mother is peculiarly liable to this
habit; she has so much to do and so
little time in which to do it. in these
days when so many outside things
crowd upon her domestic duties.
There is no doubt that hurry claims
ten victims where hard work kills
one.
ftlhe man of business suffers in much
the same manner. The hurried break
fast and the hurried skimming of the
morning paper are but the beginning
of a hurried day. Yet it is unsafe for
him to aet in a hurry, or in the spirit
generated by it The uncertainties of
his calling make entire self-control or
prime importance.
School children are victims of the
same evil. They must be at school
exactly on time. But in thousands of
cases the family arrangements are not
such as to favor punctuality. The
child is allowed to sit up late, and so
is late at breakfast; or the breakfast
Itself is late, and the child must hurry
through it and then hurry oft half
fed and fully fretted, dreading tardi
ness and the teacher’s displeasure.
Robust children may work off the
effect amid the sports of the day, but
many others are injured for life.
Occasional hurry is hardly to be
avoided, society being what it is; but
the habit of hurry should be guarded
against as one of the surest promoters ‘
of 111-temper and ill-health.
if necessary, less work should be
done; but in many cases nothing is
needed but a wiser economy of time.
Some of the Worst victims of hurry
ure men who dally with their worn
until time presses them, and then
crowd themselves into a fever; pitying
themselves meanwhile because they
are so sadly driven.—Youth’s Com
panion.
TOO MUCH HAT.
A Granger Winds Out That It Doesn’t Do
to Trust a Barber.
A old granger dropped into the
Sherman house barber shop recently,
says the Chioago Tribune, who would
have proved a gold mine if Denman
Thompson could have captured him
for his rural drama. His hair lookod
as if it had not been out since the last
Blaine oampaign. and after he had
passed through the hands of a barber
it is doubtful if his own family would
have recognized him. He paid the
check and the porter brushed the hay
seed from his ooat and handed him
his hat. The old man put on his head
covering and it immediately sunk to
the level of his eara practically snuf
fing out its wearer like a candle..
•■Here! See here! Tarnation.that
ain’t my hat!" he cried, throwing it
down and glaring around the room,
every bit of indignation in his giant
frnmn npnnaarl
"Beg pardon, sab; but dat’s yo bat.
sab, gbore’a yo la bohn." laid the
highly amused darky.
••Don’t ye ■’pose I don't know my
own hatP” snorted the rural visitor.
••I’ve worn it every day for the last
two years. Guess I oughter know it
purty well by this time.
The porter made no reply, but stood
holding out the *hat and laughing at
tbo old man's earnestness. Suddenly
tho latter 'turned loose" like a tornu
do, and the language he used would
have made his own oattle gee in ter
ror. The foreman of the shop hastened
forward.
••I don’t want any of you fellers ter
think that I aeouse you of takln’ It"
exclaimed the irate, customer. * But
I kin llek the lowdown sneak who
orcpt in here and stole it while I wuz
havin’ my head shingled. And I shall
hold this shop responsible fer It too,
Cost $1.6% and 1 kin prove it."
••But Mr. Butler, are you quite
sure that—%" began the foreman, bal
ancing the hat in his handa
•ButlerI How in thunder did you
find out that my name's Butler?"
••It is written on your hat band
hero, 'See? Abner Butler. Piper
City, III’"
The old man hastily snatched up
his hat jammed it upon his head and
rushed out into a cold and cruel world
again, saying several things which
can not be put into cold type,
Hibias for mermen.
One of the old stories is that in the
year 1619 two councilors of Ckrletiun
IV. of Denmark, while sailing between
Norway and Sweden, discovered a
merman swimming about with a bunch
of grass on his head. They threw
out a hook and line, with a slice of
bacon, which the merman seised.
Being caught he threatened vengeance
so loudly that he waa thrown back into
the sea. _
