The old middle-of-the-road popu lists of this state have washed their hands of Brvan. About sixty dele gates met at Hastings Thursday and organized the "union reform party. and. althoueh a few democrats were present, Bryan's name was not men tioned. This is an unkind cut. "Inert, lethargic, doing nothing. waiting for something to turn up, pop ulists have not availed themselves of their opportunity," 6ays the Philadel phia American, the most prominent populist paper in the United States. Just on the eve of chooeinsr dates for nation! conventions this sort of talk is significant and creates an impres sion that thincs look blue at the pop headquarters. The showing made by the house of representative on the roney question is not encouracine to Bryanite. The house pat-sed the gold -tandard meas ur by a vot of t90 to 150, very re publican membir and eleven demo crats voting aye. The vote for this bill repreEens two-thirds of lie peo pie f the United States, and the next presidential campaign will uid unt edly start with the gold standard as the law ot the land. Has Mr. Bryan noted the recent ac tion of theSiuthern Hosiery Spin ners' association of Charlotte, N.

This is only an instance of the attitude of the entire textile in dustries in the south. Governor John R.

It is not my desire that a democrat should succeed my bid friend Selby McCullom.

In 1834-5 the total beet sugar crop of the world was but 182,000 tons; by 1864-5 it had reached 536.000 tons; in 1874-5 it was 1,219,000 tons; io 1884 5, 2,545,000 tons; in. 1894 5, 4,792,793 tons, and in 1899-1900, 6,510,000 tons. In 1854 5 beet sugar formed 13 percent of the world's total eugar crop, and io 1899 1900 it formed 66 per cent. Thus the eugar producing area of the world has in less than a half centurX been bifted from the tropics northward. and the farmer of the temperate zone has shown his ability not only to com pete with the low-priced labor oi tne tropics; but In doing bo to reduce by one-half the cost of the article pro duced. .... People who assume that the trusts were going to control prices by hoi d- ngathe production of given articles exclusively in their own bands, will be interested in the following para- eraDh from Dun's Review for Decem ber 16: "While business continues re markablv lar?e for the season, there is a large decrease in many lines and n several the prospect of new and sharp competition begins to affect cal culation. The rising of a new steel company and the separation between Carne?ie and P. iclt are widely dis cussed. The rupture between a leaa lng director and the Sugar company s supposed to forec;i-t fresh rivalry; th Tin Piate com nan v nas to meet fnmnntlLion from a half dozen new works In progress; the Window Glas icompaay proposes to reduce its prices a third in order to put down the inde pendents, and there are similar signs in other quarters." This is too big a country and there is too much capital awaiting investment to mke it p ac ticable for any one concern to long control the production of an article in whose manufacture there is any con siderable profit. Competition is t-ure to arise whenever the price is put up to a point where there is any consid erable profit. The recent financial disasters. which are largely the result of injudi clous loans upon watered stock, are liable to throw the trust "promoters out of employment and permanently check these speculative prices, which have brought reproach upon many legitimate business consolidations re quired for the economical production of articles of consumption. Legitimate consolidation of interest to reduce the cost of production, and so reduce the price to consumers, is quite a different thing from the indiscriminate organ ization of enormous concerns with in flated stock for speculation purposes only, and the public will quickly dis criminate between the two system?.

' story of a Slave. To be bound hand and foct for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D "Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He 9ays: "My wife has been 6o helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully improved and able to do her own work."

A London bookseher te.ls tnis story: "One time Sarah Bernhardt visited my shop. I showed her every attention, and she seemed pleased. As she was going out she took hold of my pencil and asked me something in French which I did not understand. Seeing that I had failed to catch her meaning, she looked about on the counters, then, quick as a flash, she took up a volume of one of the very best sets of Scott, bound in tree calf, opened it at the very center, wrote something quickly, calmly tore out the leaf, handed it to me, smiled and went out." The as tounded bookseller looked at the leaf and discovered that Sarah had written a pass for two to her performances that evening. ' Shinn keeps a full supply of eaadies, fiuits and outs.

"It looks a little like snow." said the weather man the other day as he looked first out of the window and then let his eye wander over the great glass map in the senate lobby. There was a fine beating snow outside Just whitening the ground in places and piling up in drifts several Inches deep against the terrace, says the Washing ton Star. Both west and south and east on the map were great white ar rows pointing toward Washington and two great "highs" were racing from different quarters for the capital. From Chicago was reported a record of 10 degrees below zero and from Colorado was reported snow deep enough to cover up small towns. The weatner man was figuring on the depth of the snow at Como and Apex and calculat ing the velocity of the wind, and from this and the general atmospheric con ditions outside, concluded that Wash ington was threatened with snow. "It is no plaything," the weather man sa!d, 'when they have snow like this in the Rockies. I had an experience in going from Helena, Mont., over the divide some years ago. It was a beau tiful day when my companion and my self left Helena. There was deep snow on the ground and in the mountains there were some immense drifts. But the snow was packed and the sun was bright. Before we got on the top of the divide it began to snow, and it is snowing now, fine drifting snow, and the wind got up to about fifty miles an hour. Within two hours there was no sign of the trail anywhere. We were In a beating blizzard and couldn't tell which way we were going. We strugg;ed along blindly until we got on top of the divide. All we could tell was that we were going down on the other side, and we had no idea where we would wind up. The horses were afraid and did not want to face the drifts, and we were half dead with cold. In floundering through one drift we got tangled In a w'r"', and that was our salvation. It was tv3 sin gle wire on the government telegraph line. The drift was clear up to the top of the telegraph pole at that point, but it was for the most part within three or four feet of the wire. We knew we must follow this line to find our way. We could not do so by sight. One of us had to book his arm around the wire and hold on to it while the other took care of the horses. He would just slide the wire along in the bend of the elbow, letting go only to pass each pole, and in this way we got into Deer Lodge. It seems strange here to talk about walking on about the level of the tops of tele graph poles, but that's what we did from the top of the divide to Deer Lodge." Remarkable Rescue. Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield.IU., makes the statement, that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of con sumption and that no remedy could cure her. Her dreggist staggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump tion; she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself benefitted from first dose. She continued its use and after taking 6ix bottles, fouud herself sound and well; now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at F. G. Fricke & Co drug store.

As soon as the injury is noticed the fracture must be care fully cleaned and washed with warm water, and then wrapped with a bit of antiseptic cotton. Splints are then prepared for the fractured limb, preferably of split elderwood, the pith of which is taken out. These splints are fastened to the cotton with a drop of glue, and held tightly in place by being wound with linen thread. The bandage and dressing are left undis turbed for from three to four weel-:s; then the leg Is soaked in tepid writer until the bandage comes off easily. The fracture will have completely hea ed In that time. Canaries anc other pet birds can be similarly treated in case of a fracture of a leg, only the elder splints are substituted by pieces of cardboard, and the bandage is left but tw oweelcs on the little winged pa tients.

Mastodons la Beaver Iams, The discovery of the remains of a mastodon near Newburgh, New York, last summer, recalls the fact that the best preserved skeleton of one of these huge animals now to be found in our" museums was also 'discovered in a marsh near Newburgh. That part of the Hudson Valley appears to have been a favorite haunt for these Ameri can elephants. Inspection of the place where the latest discovery was made emphasizes the fact that beavers were contemporaries of the mastodons, and that beaver-dams were as perilous as quicksands for the massive beasts who ventured to set foot in them.

Bow tho Filipinos Bory Their Dead. , A Manila correspondent of an Amer ican newspaper says that the Filipinos do not bury their dead under ground, but in tiers of masonry. In Manila, , Paco cemetery is the most important place of burial. The high walls of masonry in which are the long aulta, each the size for one body, are built in circles, one within the other, witn a walk between. As the coffin is thrust in the vault the mourners rend the air with their wails, but they stand by quietly while it is sealed with bricks and mortar; when the final crevice had been filled they quietly disperse. These vaults are hired, not bought, of the church, and when the rent is not forthcoming the body is torn out, no matter In what state of preservation, and the vault rented to some one else who can afford to pay. The bones thus desecrated are thrown in a heap in a place prepared for the purpose, where there is a large and gruesome collec tion. EVIL DOERS TRAPPED. Tby Art AU Aoxiooa to Hear from th Woman They Lots. From the Indianapolis News: "It is queer what risks some men will take to get a letter from a woman they love," said John Edmunds of the gen eral delivery department of the pot office. "Criminals who can be found in no other way are often arrested when they call for mail at the general de livery window. Generally, the men call for letters written by some wom an. Along close to the holidays last year a Pinkerton detective came to the office and waited for three days ana nights for a man wanted in the East, who was supposed to be in this city. The detective knew that before the murder he was accused of committing the man had corresponded with a wom an In the East. The detective had been waiting three days, when he received word to go to Columbus. Ohio, as there was a letter at that office for the man. He went, and had not been there long when the man made hia appearance. Th rletective arrested him at once and proceeded to Cleveland, where the prisoner was tried and sentencea u rieath. Another Instance was where not long ago the authorities were look ing for a man accused of committing some big crime and had no clew at all as to where he was; so every office in the country was sent word to look out for a letter for that man. Some time after one came to our office and we at once notified the authorities. A detec tive came on immediately, and when the man asked for his mall he was at once arrested."

Money Orders Tht Fll to Reach, In the course of the last year nearly 50,000 money orders failed to reach the payees. The number of such cases in creases from year to year, correspond ing with the aggregate business. In many cases remitters hold the orders as receipts; in other cases failure to deliver is due to defective address; but the bulk of the loss occurs through the stealing of letters by persons In the employ of the payees or remitters Whenever loss Is reported, whether actual or alleged, a duplicate is drawn promptly, the issue of which makes the original void. In the last year the number of duplicates Issued was 46,263, being an increase over the preceding year of 1,908. Couldn't Stand Prosperity. Little Turkey "Mamma, where has papa gone?

It digests what you eat and cures indi gestion, heartburn and all ferms of dyspepsia. A Mobla Uarat We have Just heard of a narrow es cape that Mrs. Ham Twombly had a little while back. It seems she was boiling a kettle of soft soap out In the back yard when her gingham apron caught fire. If she hadn't had the presence of mind to scream it might have been our pamrui duty to chronl cle a dreadful holocaust. But Bill Sloane. who happened to be going down the alley at the time, jumped the back fence and let her down by the nape of the neck In the cistern. We understand Ham Twombly, when he heard of it, offered Bill $5 as a reward for his heroic conduct, but Bill nobly refused It. While the fire was being put out In the cistern the kettle boiled over, and Mrs. Twombly lost three or four gallons of good soap. She has the heartfelt sympathy of the entire com munity.

The American child is usually cred ited with keen powers of observation, says the New York Commercial Ad vertiser. Just what he thinks of some of his elaborate toys would make In teresting reading. His cable cars and bis Brooklyn bridge, his Niagara falls and his Grand Central depot are all "made in Germany." No wonder the wonders of America are wonders in deed to the child who has learned all about them in the nursery. The Ger man idea of a fountain is not the Mad ison square nor the Central park idea at all. It includes tritons and dol- phlns and mermaids and Germanla In a steel corset in the cente.- of the basin. A signal-tower toy made in Germany would bewilder a railroad president. It looks like a filigree windmill and Is painted every shade from pale rose to deep green. The fire engin?s and "hook and ladder companies" must grieve the small boy who has seen and waxed ecstatic over "the real thing." German toymakers cater to the American mar kets, which accounts for the startling reproductions of our naMonal institu tions. Every spring the toy fair at Lelpsic blossoms forth in ocean steam ers, brownstone dollhonses, railway trestles, trains of cars, yachts, ware houses and other American luxuries and necessities in miniature. But the resemblance is only near enough to the original to satisfy the artless man ufacturers. It exercises the American child's Imagination and taxes his mem ory to recall where he hns s;en some thing that this or that toy reminds him of. If he is energetic and patriotic he reralnts his cable car or fire engine and tears down the German flags from the towers of the Brooklyn bridge. A great effort to be truly American was made by one toymaker this season. He made a railway station and painted its two gothlc towers pale green and pale blue respectively; then he fitted up one tower as a "waiting room" and the other- as the station master s office. The names of these departments were printed In English over the door or each. The arch, which Joined the two towers and beneath which passengers had to pass to bay tickets before rush ing out on the tracks beyond, bore a dock, flanked by the German coat-of-arms. Above this, in big black letters. "Central station. Bahnhof." U printed. and from the flagstaff floats a Swiss flag. But the funniest feature is the waiting room." It is furnished with small round tables, on each of which is a glass of beer. Shades of American lunch-counter pies and sandwiches! In biliousness.

Fricke & Co. AlMkka Cirow ln IVurmcir, Prospective visitors and gold-seekers in the Klondike region may extract some comfort from the discovery, made by the Harriman Alaska expedition, that most of the glaciers which abound in that territory are receding. The fact is au indication that the average weather there Is growing warmer. If it were growing colder the glacers would be advancing, while if It were about the same one year with another they would maintain the same general position, neither creeping nearrr to the sea nor melting away from their ter minal moraines. The rate of glacial recession Is so slow, however, that fur overcoats and warm sleeping-bags are likely to remain as a part of the neces sary equipment of Alaskan travel for some years to come. Nothing, it may be added, is slower than the move ment of a glacier, except the settle ment of the Alaskan boundary dis pute. L'Jwis Dennis.

Fricke & Co Hair Rises on End. An eminent medical man, whose treatises on human hair have attracted much notice, among many other strik ing statements as to woman's chief beauty, remarked that "bristling." when used in speaking of the human hair. Is not a figure. The hair is subject to and innuenced by almost every pas sion of the human mind, and emotion al hair, of which he has treated es pecially, he claims is quite common. Hair looks, feels and falls differently when a person is In sorrow, Joy, sur prise or dejection. After a day or two of deep mental study or violent bod ily exercise, a most visible difference may be detected by a practiced ob server. The day is fated to come, he maintains, when this coloring in the hair will be a valuable aid In idenUI- catlon. Bismarck's Iron Nerve Was the result of his splendid health.
