Tim secretary announced a comiiiuiilcn

A communication from tho "Corn Cobb
School of Philosophy," located r Indian

sotus had a theory rewarding eclipses, and
If so would It ho asking too much to ask
that it bo kIvoii to tho public.
"So fur as I know, ills club has no theory

pllod Brother Gardner. "Of eo'so wo now

presold has u theory I should like to hear
from him."
Eldor Penstock aroso and replied that
ho had ono, ami ho was about to state It
when an accident occurred to prevent.
Tho eldor used to own a parrot when ho
lived In Detroit. Ono day he was running
Ids tongtto out at tho bird when ho re
ceived a "peck" which almost disabled that
organ. Slnco then, whouovor ho gets ready
to speak' 1 11 public, he slips a vest bucklo
Into his mouth, Ho had Justdono so on
this occasion whon Satnuol Shin gavo him
a kick as a hint that two big watermelons
wore In tho anteroom waiting for adjourn
ment. The eldor was startled, and tho
bucklo was sucked back luto Ids throat, and
two members had to rush him out. When
tho door had closed behind him Brother
Gardner said
"Do secretary will tnako do record dat
4ls club has no theory an' don't want oue."
How In ItnUn the llody itfn llrimnnl I'rrann
A French-Canadian proceeded In this
fashion! Ho supplied himself with soino
glass gallon jam and a quantity of tin
tdacked lime and went In n lont to tho
place whoro tho man was seen to go
down. Ono of tho jars was half filled
with lltno and then tilled with water
anil tlrjhtly corked. It was then tlropiieil
overboard, and noon after exploded at

up for action,
"If I remember right," replied Brother
Gardner, "It was a resolushuu to do effect
dat do windmill Is of greater public bcucilt
dan do railroad."
"Yes, uah."
"Bruddor Taylor, did you eber own a

"No, nab."

"N no, sah, but I'so seen 'em."

A Few Hid Iteinnrks by lite Kill tor of
the Great Journal.
Pr.lisoNAU We never speak of ourself
In tlio columns of our own paper when we
can possibly avoid It, It Is not In good
taste for any editor of a great Journal to do
so. We shouldn't do so on this occasion If
not forced to In order to set certain rumors
at rest.
About a year ago Major A. Iloyt Dudley
struck this town with his family. Ho sub
scribed for Tho Kleker and all went well
for n tlmo. He was made assistant county
clerk, nnd It was not until ho began to get
drunk and light his cigars with deeds and
mortgages that we had anything to say.
Ho felt revengeful for our remarks, and In
order to get even with us gave a grand
party one night last wcok and cut us dead.
Not only that, hut he bragged of It, and so
did his wife. The Idea was to !ollttto and
degrade us In asocial way, but wo don't
think any oue will try It ou ngaln, We tele-
? implied up to Jollet that the major was
lore, and day before yesterday ho was
taken back to servo out the other two
years of his service. Wo understand that
his wife Is furious Ijccnuso we also learned
that she Hied to perform In n beer hall con
cert In Philadelphia, but we can't help It.
They set out to slay and got stayed, and
must make the best of It. Wo never at
tack any one, but If stepped on wo always
seek to make It hot for the stepplst.
A Fkw Plain Wonns. Being on this
subject, and uot wishing to refer to It
again, wo wish to say a few words to our
home readers. The question Is often asked:
"Who Is tho leader of society In this
town?" We deslroto settle thnt question
right here and now. Wo are. There Isn't
the slightest doubt thnt wo are the only
inon in this town using perfumed soap, a
toothbrush and having a white shirt
which buttons behind. Wo nro tho only
one, so far as wo can learn, who has reg
ular summer socks, eats with a fork or
knows to what use to put a table napkin.
Wo don't brag of theso things. We were
brought up that way, and It's perfectly
natural. We aro getitlonud refined. No
ono over saw us expectorate on the floor
while dancing, and we don't want a brick
layer's trowel to eat Ico cream with. Wo
trust this will settle the question at once
and forever.
TiieOtiiehSidk.-Wo uuderstMid thnt
Hank Curtis Is telling everybody In town
thnt wo tried to murder him the other day
because ho refused to renew his subscrip
tion to The Kicker. Thero may bo a few
people In town who don't know that Hank
Is tho greatest liar In Arizona, and for
their benefit wo will give our side of tho
story.
Wo met Hank on Apache avenue and
told him that his subscription had expired.
Ho claimed to bo so hard up that he could
not renew. Wo advised him to take lew
whisky and moru Kicker, nnd ho received
It lu n laughing, good unturcd way. We
havoahablt when talking with a man on
tho street of putting our hand on his
shoulders nnd pushing him backward. It
simply arises from our earnestness, and 13
generally understood that way. Hank,
however, pretended thnt ho thought wo
were going to assault him nnd he reached
for his gun. Before ho could get it wo lrid
him covered, and he gavo us n dollar to re
new his subscription and begged our par
don for lelng so hasty. That's all thero
was to it, and he is very silly to go around
lying nbotit tho matter.
Wk Shall Skk. Wo understand thnt
tho court house ring, which has vainly
tried to use tills paper as an organ, has de
claret! that we shall never hold an otllce in
this town. It may be proper for us, In
view of this declaration, to dellne our pol
tlon. We are fitted by nature and cdiict
tlou to make the best mayor this town
ever had or will have if wo don't get It.

How to Clean Marble.
A strong preparation for cleaning mar
ble is fine pumice stone, newly slnked
limo and verdigris, mixed thick with
soft soap. Dip a woolen rag in this
compound, and rub the stains ono way.
Then wash off with soap and water. An
other excellent preparation is mndo of
two parts of common soda, one part of
pumice stone nnd ono of finely powdered
chalk, which should lie sifted through a
fine sievo and mixed witli wnter. It is
used in the same manner. Iron rust
can be usually removed by rubbing with
lemon juico.
How to llemler Fabrics Incombustible.
Many deaths would bo prevented it
ladles engaged in household work would
wear incombustible or noil-inflammable
garments. Tho process of so treatiug
linons and cottons is very simple. Steep
tho goods in a 7 er cent, solution of sul
phate of ammonia, or a SO per cent, solu
tion of tuugstato of soda and then dry
them. If they nro now held in tho ilamo
of a candle or gas lamp they will not take
fire. That portion of the fabric which
was in contact with tho light will bo
como charred, but it will not inflame,
and hence tho burning stato will not
spread to tho rest of the garment. Steep
iug in borax nnd hot wnter will have a
similar effect
More Thau Ills Head Was In Ills Hat.
It was gusty on the North river yester
day morning, and most of the passengers
who stood on the decks of the ferryboats
held their fingers on the brims of their
lints. One mnu on nn Erie railroad boat
clutched a last season's white hat flimly
with both hands. The tile was so evidently
a relic of tho past that his extreme caution
to prevent It being blown away aroused
some ridicule, and as tho refrain of "Where
did you get that hntf" grew more marked
and personal the owner angrily withdrew
his hands, ns though ho might need them
presently for another purpose. Tho next
momcut tho old hat was In the river.
A burst of heartless laughter followed It
as it floated away.
"Never mmd, old man," cried a truck
driver consolingly. "It was called In long
ago."
"Mebbo 60," snld the bareheaded man
savagely. "But tho three months' com

called In until Oct. ll"-Now York Sun.

How to ltettore Faded Writing,
Often tho writing upon letters nnd
other documents becomes faded and al
most illegible. If thoy aro of importance
tho writing can bo easily restored by
first covering it with 11 solution of prus
slate of potash, nnd then adding, over
tho prusslate, some diluted muriatio
acid. By this means tho faded letters
will assume n permanent and beautiful
dark blue color.
