Tbe “Shamrock” is out on tbe briney deep coming to America to verify tbe oft repeated lesson that the fast yachts are only built in A liter ica.

The republican papers thi* week will contain a repott made bv tbe I’rout In vestigating Committee. The report was submitted to and revised by tbe republi can campaign committee. Tho charges made against tbe populist officials are not substantiated by the evidence. Said charges are made at random, re gnrdless of truth in hopes of deceiving the voters. There will be a times when the investigating committee? Will he an boomerang to the republcan parly.— Times Independent. The above was written in the Name spirit by which tho democratic party accumulated the warp and woof from which they wove the populist party i. e. deception. If the report of the Front committee was first submitted to the Republi can campaign committee for revision bow did the editor of the Times find it out? If he will explain to bis readers how he got his information, they will be in shape to the better judge as to its reliability. If such is the facts the people should know it. Rut if this important bit of knowledge only exists in the mind of the writer of the above, then they should catch on also. Ah to the charges, well, they are all made un der oath and some of them by Hitch widely known men as (), F. liedlund, and others by York county men whose names are attached, and who are ready to accept the consequence of their affidavits if any one wishes to tiring suit against them for libel As for the man Simon, every as seriion lie swore to has been verified by an examination cf the ballots themselves and other corroborative evidence, but then the populist slate officers aught to know him best he was one of them when the crime was committed, and turning states evi dence should not save a man when he is striking at the instrument of our civil rights which w« must pro tect or antler the consequences. Ret all who accept the above statements of the Times as facts, go get the evi dence as taken under oath and judge fur themselves whither the charges are suhstunciatcd by the evidence or not, and ascertain from the sworn statements of men whose veracity is not questioned at home whither they believe the committee has re ported “regardless of truth” or whither the evidence is there under oath just as claimed and therefore the fact staring them in the face that it is they who “hope to deceive the voters,” lor a knowledge by the voters of the disgraceful acts of their '97 recount committee, will relegate them to deserved oblivion hence forth and forever. The time for that “Boomerang” arrived when Simon first “peached” on your cherubs at the state house. It then began to return to the fel lows who manufactured it and the longer it keeps coming the more force it gathers until now the sworn statements of houest men fasten a crime upon your party that is more heinous than that of Bartley, and yet you endeavor to shield them by half hearted attempts to ridicule the honest work of a committee as lion estly appointed and clothed with the same authority as your committee of '97, they were created by the same power that created yours. The only difference beiog that your party placed at their disposal $10,1)00 to defray expenses of which they used it all (if there was any left we are willing to be corrected) but when the Front committee was allowed I'J.OoO to ascertain if the charges of fraud made against your parly was true, the governor, (the same fellow who said the First Nebraska boy a were uol entitled to any thanks) vetoed the b|l| and the I'rout committee hail to root hog or die.

Professor Comstock of Cornell In speaking to his class on the trials of scientists told this anthentic tale of the experience of a professor of invertebrate zoology in a sister institution, which had better be left nameless. Trichime in pork, the cause of the frightful disease trichinosis in human consumers, give a peculiar appearance to meat, which is studded with little j cysts, it is then known to the trade as “measly pork.” The learned scientist, wishing some for study, went to the butcher and asked if he ever got any measly pork. “•Sometimes,’’ said the hatcher cau tiously, “but I always throw it away.” “Well,” said the professor, “the next time you have any I wish you’d send me up some,” meaning, of course, to his laboratory. The batcher stared at him, but said he would. Three weeks passed, when the professor, growing impatient, again dropped in. “Haven’t yon found any measly pork yett” “Why, yes,” said the butcher. “1 sent up two pounds a week ago." A sickly grin broke over the pro fessor's face. “Where did you send it?” said he. “Why, to your house, of course,” said the butcher.—Kansas City TiuioH. Jerry’* Version of It, A prominent Detroit woman with a great interest in juvenile mission work has this excellent anecdote to tell: One of her classes in u certain mis sion is composed of little street children to the number of 20 or more whose ages range from 3 to 3. Most of the scholars are boys, though now and then one notices the pinched face of a little daughter of poverty in the ranks. The other day the lesson wus on the peculiarities of English. Words that ure pronounced alike and spelled differ ently and words that are pronounced differently but spelled nlike were dis cussed at length. She explained the dif ference between lead the metal and lead the verb, and the children grasped the point instantly. Then she took the two words “week” and “weak.” Hhe explained the difference in the meaning and use to the tots, and then called up a little fallow, aged 0, to use the word “weak” in a phrase. The little fellow thought a moment, then answered, “A weak old woman.” The teacher nodded her approval, and smiled Into the eyes upturned to hers. “Now, Jerry Ryan,” she said, turn ing to another little lioy, “you take the word ‘week’ and use it in a phrase.” Jerry thought a minute, and then, he, too, replied, “A week old baby.”— Detroit Free Press. Ilia Final Ilrqoeat, A Scotch farmer, celebrated in liia neighborhood for his immense strength and skill in athletic exercises, very fre quently had the pleasure of contending with people who came to try their strength against him. Lord D., a great pugilistic amateur, went from London on purpose to fight the athletic Scot. The latter was working in an inclosure at a littledistunce from his house when the noble lord arrived. His lordship tied his horse to a tree and addressed the farmer. “Friend, I have heard marvel ous reports of your skill and have come a long way to sfie which of us two is the better wrestler.” The Scotchman, without answering, seized the nobleman, pitched him over the hedge and then set about working again. Whon Lord D. got up, “Well,” said the farmer, “have you anything to say to me?” “No,” replied his lordship, “but per haps you’d be good enough to throw me my horse.”—Public Opinion. Fouled the ratiengfrii. A man sitting in an electric car the other day pulled out of his pocket his handkerchief, when out sprang what seemed to be n snake. It wriggled and jumped around on the floor at a great rate. The ladies screamed and huddled together, the men made for it, and one stumped his foot on it, but upon exami nation it proved to be a copper wound bass piano wire, which the man with the handkerchief had coiled up in his pocket and, having become uncoiled, jumped to the floor. How the women looked daggers at him after they be came quieted down was a caution. He Boon got off, we premium to put it in the piano that needed it, not because of the looks of the women.—Kalem Ga zette. Once Waa Enongh.
