ORIGIN OP THE HOT TOMALE
Hlcky Explain to Snag Flnnerty tht
Genesis of tha Name.
Snag Flnnerty was a lad with a philo
sophlcal mind and a broken tooth, sayi
New Tork World. It was this "busted
toot," as he called It, that gave hint
this pretty little pet name of "Snag.
They were standing on a corner one daj
when a hot tomale man passed. "
wonder," said Snag, "whatever mad
'em call dem tings tomales?" "Don't
you know?" asked Micky. "Naw! Not
you don't needer." "Yes, I does, and
I'll tell yer if yer wants to know. D'yt
know Cully Flynn?" "Yep!" "Well
Cully was er goln' up der Bowery on
night wid his gal and she said she wai
hungry. Cull had der price, so be getf
gay and says 'come on,' and drags hei
Inter a restaurant and sits her down tei
table. Up comes der waiter and says
'What d'youse want?' Der gal's nami
was Mollis and she says she wants ei
nice hot sausage an' er cup er coffee
Cull says he wants a cold sausage an' ei
bottle of beer. Der mug wants to gll
dat order straight so he says: 'Jist sa
that agin.' So Cull says: 'Der hot tc
Mollle and der cold to Cully see!' Well
he goes away saying to hiaself: 'Hoi
ter Mollle cold ter Cully' so 'at he'll git
it right. When he comes back with it
he says: 'Here's yer hot ter Mollle.' "
"Sure? Aw go on."
"Dat's right; so ever since dat timt
they calls 'em hot ter mollies."
"Say," said Snag, "I'd like ter Jist
carve my initials into one o' dem hot
ter mollies right now talkln' about
eatln' alius make's me hungry." And
the pair disappeared around the cornel
in search of something to eat.
BICYCLE ETIQUTTE.
What 1 Regarded a Good Form by
Export on the Wheel.,
An authority on bicycle etiquette lays
down the following rules: "In mount
ing, the gentleman who is accompanyng
a lady holds her wheel; she stands on
the left side of the machine and puts hei
right foot across the frame on the right
pedal, which at the time must be up;
pushing the right pedal causes the ma
chine to start and then, with the left
foot In place, the rider starts ahead
slowly at first, in order to give her
cavalier time to mount his wheel,
which he will do In the briefest time
possible. When the end of the ride is
reached the man quickly dismounts and
Is at his companion's side to assist her,
she, in the meantime, assisting her
self as much as possible. This is done
that is, dismounting In the most ap
proved style by riding slowly and when
the left pedal is on the rise the weight
of the body Is thrown on it, the right
foot is crossed over the frame of the
machine and with an assisting hand
the rider can easfly step to the ground.
In meeting a party of cyclists who are
known to each other and desire to stop
for a parley, it is considered the proper
thing for the men of the party to dis
mount while in conversation witlh the
ladies. As to the furnishings of the
bicycle, to be really swagger it must
be fitted out with a clock and a bell,
luggage carrier and a cyclometer, the
latter being an absolute sine qua non
to the woman who cares for records."

America Mill Ahead.
A couple of Englishmen en route fof
Rome were joined by an American,
whose blatant patriotism amused, then
bored them. No matter what was ad
mirable, rich or rare, there was al
ways something in America to eclipse
it, according to our countryman. The
Britishers determined to teach the
Yankee a lesson, and taking advantage
of the chronic thirst of their companion
they plied him with all the liquor that
he could be induced to absorb, and then
proposed a visit to the catacombs. Be
fore they reached their destination they
were obliged to guide his errant steps
between them, and at length, overcome
by drowsiness, the American begged to
be left alone to lie down at his ease.
When sounds as of discharge of
musketry issued at regular intervals
from the nose of the prostrate patriot,
his companions concluded that he was
dreaming of the Fourth of July, and
would therefore be oblivious of any
thing nearer at hand. Producing a
sheet, purloined from their hotel, and
until now carefully concealed, they
wrapped the sleeper like a mummy in
Its folds, and then left him to "do" the
catacombs on their own account. Re
turning an hour later they found him
Btlll sleeping. One of them then drew
from under his coat a tin fish born and
blew from It a blast that only elicited a
grunt and produced a fluttering of the
eyelids of the sleeper. A second blast,
however, longer and louder, brought
him to a sitting posture, with eyes wide
open and senses alert A moment of
bewilderment and then he exclaimed,
Joyously: "Gabriel's trump! Resurrec
tion day! First man up! Hurray! Ameri
ca still ahead!" Editor's Drawer in

An Imperial Decree Read Before Thou
and of Chinese Students.
London, Sept. 2 . A paper here
prints a dispatch from Hong Kong
which says that at the annual examin
ations in Canton thousands of stu
dents were given copies of an imperial
decree in which the doctrines of Chris
tianity were fiercely condemned. The
decreo uses the following language:
"A stupid, black-haired race is es
tablishing sundry sects and they
regard not their own lives, but pre
tend to rise again as immortal men and
women. They congregate and, aban
doning chastity, behave like obscene
birds and beasts. Faithful Confucians
must shoot and stone and behead them
without mercy. I, the emperor, com
mand the authorities to eradicate
these weeds and vermin. Kill the ser
pents Throw them to the wolves and
tigers, because there is no salvation
for them, either against heaven-sent
calamities or misfortunes caused by
human agencies." .

WORK OF BOND SYNDICATE
They Desire to Avoid Any Action Which
Would Have the Effect of Cheeking
the Steadily Increasing Business
Prosperity That I Now In
Ail Section of tha
Country.
Washington, Sept. 23. The easy as
surance and confidence of the treasury
officials that there will not be a bond
issue and that the treasury gold re
serve will not again be seriously de
pleted is explained by a prominent of
ficial, who says that through the good
offices of the bond syndicate, promises
have been secured from bankers in the
principal cities of the country that in
case of necessity they can be called
upon to place up to $.10,000,000 pf gold
in the treasury in exchange for legal
tender. This important matter has
been quietly negotiated by Messrs.
Belmont and Morgan during the last
fifteen days.
The reasons which have led to the
action are varied, but all tend to the
same end. On the part of the admin
istration it is recognized as good poli
tics to avoid another bond issue and
throw the responsibility and necessity
for remedial financial legislation upon
the incoming congress. It was deter
mined by the president several months
ago that there would be no bond issue
until after the elections, as an issue
previous thereto would have the effect
of strengthening the hands of the free
silver men and the Populists.
On the other side the syndicate
wishes to avoid any action which
would have the effect of checking the
steadily increasing busines prosperity.
The parties to the present voluntary
combination for the protection of the
treasury gold reserve are almost en
tirely within the list of banks that
were allowed to participate in the
handling of the last bond issue.
LAND FRAUDS CHARGED.
A Wyoming State Senator Warn Secre
tary Smith to Investigate.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. 23. Robert
Foote, state senator of Johnson
county, has written an open letter
to Secretary Smith of the in
terior 'department, exposing what he
characterizes as "one of the most
gigantic and glaring frauds of the
age" which is about to be com
mitted, he says, in Wyoming, under
the Carey arid land law. He says
that all the waters of the streams
in the Big Horn basin were parceled
out to members of the "state land
ring" by the state engineer and com
panies have been formed which pro
pose to charge to settlers for water
rights 910 per acre which are not
worth over $10. The lands which the
state authorities have asked to have
set apart under the Carey law are not
desert lands as contemplated in the act
of congress, Mr. Foote asserts. In
conclusion the Senator says the design
Is to cieate a system of peonage or ten-
antry-at-will in our rich valleys where

should be found.

Colonel Ross' Explanation of Where
75,000 of Indian Fund Went.
Washington, Sept 23. Colonel D.
M. Ross, of Guthrie, Ok., spent five
hours on the witness stand ' trying to
tell what he did with the $-5,000 he
received from the secretary of the
treasury on the well known $3,000,000

been a member of the state legislature
and voted for Gorman, and who is gen
erally believed to be the fine financial
manipulator of Senator Gorman in
certain western legislative matters.
This $10,000 he paid Parsons was for
Parson himself, as Colonol Ross
stated. Then Colonel Ross says he set
apart $10,000 for himself, and then he
gave Sam Donaldson of Kentucky,
wno was supposed to nave a financial
lobby pull in the treasury, $5,000, and
tne remaining 50,000 he paid to
Colonel Parsons in cash, and it is his
understanding that Parsons paid it out
to certain persons, but not knowing
who they were, he can not explain fur

THE PRINCE OF WALES.
EE COMES TO THE FRONT IN A

HIS NAG WAS FAVORED.
Aa Extraordinary Light Handicap In.
poed Colonel North Preparing to
Rival Monte Carlo at Ostend,
Belgium Lord Dunraven
Loae In EnglUh Sport
ing Favor.
London, Sept 23. Something ap
proaching a turf scandal has arisen on
account of the extraordinary lightness
of the handicap placed upon Florizel, .
owned by the prince of Wales. Im
mediately after the acceptance for the
czarewitch stakes were published, 6 to
1 was freely taken on Florizel. One
writer says that the only possible so
lution was a desire on the part of the
bandicapper to treat the prince of
Wales leniently and that the horse
would not have been thus favored if it
belonged to any one else.
King Leopold of Belgium has sold to
Colonel North, the English "nitrate
king," a mile of the sea front of Ostend
for $1,500,000. It is said that Colonel
North intends to found there an inter
national sporting club, which will be
the center for horse racing, glove
fighting and athletics generally, with
a theater, gambling rooms and publio
gardens.
It is said that Max Lebaudick, who
inherited a fortune of $15,000,000 from
his father, a sugar refiner, which he
has been industriously trying to dissi
pate for some time, has fallen into the
bands of the same English gang who
preyed upon the late Squire Abington,
the famous English sportsman.
With the publication of the full cor
respondence between the Earl of Dun
raven and the America's cup commit
tee of the New York Yachting club
and Mr. Iselin, a decided change of
sen timent has come over the English
yachtsmen. While it is impossible
to alter the opinion which prevails
among Englishmen in general that
Valkyrie was beaten out of the
America's cup by unfair means, there
is reason to believe that authorities on
yachting are not all disposed to in
dorse the course that has been pur
sued by Lord Dunraven. The most
significant indication of this is Admir
al Fitzgerald's letter to the Times
condemning Lord Dunraven and prais
ing Mr. Iselin for his offer to resail
the races.
It now seems likely that the plan of
giving to Lord Dunraven a publio re
ception at Cardiff upon his return
from New York, as well as the ar
rangements for an elaborate welcome
of Valkyrie's owner, will be aban
doned.

Epilepsy 20 Years.
Cured by Dr. Wiles' Nervine.
A few yours ago, Mr. L. "W. Gallaher, was
an extensive, successful expert manu
facturer of lumber products. Attacked with
epilepsy, he was obliged to give up his busi
ness. The attacks came upon him most in
opportunely. One time falling from a carri
age, at another down stairs, and often in the
street. Once he fell down a shaft in the
mill, his Injuries nearly proving fatal. Mr.
Gallaher writes from Milwaukee, Feb. 16, '95.
"There are none more miserable than epi
leptics. For 20 years I suffered with epilep
tic fits, having as high as five in one night. I
tried any number of physicians, paying to
one alone, a foe of 1500.00 and have done
little for years but search for something to
help me, and have taken all, the leading
remedies, but received no benefit. A year ago
my son, Chas. 8. Gallaher, druggist at 191
Reed St., Milwaukee, gave me Dr. Miles'
Restorative Nervine, and I tried It with
gratifying results. Have had but two fits
since I began taking It. I am better now in
every way than I have been in 20 years."
