His tobo hojH)d th fit Uio city papers will give President Cleveland's baby a rest As a piooo of news it was agreeable at tho time but to keep It up sis dujs in the week and twico on Kunday, it becomes obnoxious, nnd any way, why ebould Cleveland's baby bo toted n'round in tlio rpreB any moro tlmn uny other follows baby? The postmuBler ot HoGcinont bun been nu invalid for about ton yearn from ef fects of disease contracted in thu war. Recently lio made uiplieation for n pension which wan rejected on the grounds tbut ho wuh not incapacitated for labor and yet butt not dono a day's work in ten years. Ho was an old sold, ier that guvo his best days lo tho per petuation ot tho government, and now Hoke Smith and his crowd tarn him down. A few moro rejections liko this ono and Mr. Cleveland's administration will become odious lo old soldiers. "Which is tlio worst statement to be hcrsldod ovr tlio. country ? The tho truthful statement of the Journal correspondent in regard lo burning of a houso of ill fame and the previous notioo put up signed ''white caps," or tbo statement made by the Argus that our VI year old boys arc so tough that they visit theso places. Which state ment will do the most good or the most harm? lJ.lt. Tho Belt seems to bo giving 'ho Argus a lift handed li-k over tho broad shoulders of Tiik CaiKF. In reply however, to tho nbovo quotation wo shall statu without fear or favor, that both statements nro injurious to tho city, and wo bclicvo without a eh ado w of foundation.

Tub Chirp has never believed that a class of so called whito capB ever exist ed in lied Cloud, neither does it bo licvo that 12 year old bojB visit such dens of iniquity, and no believe that suoh statements made by the public press injures rnther than elevates the good name of our city.

Hail to The Chief. Superior Sun. For Farm Loans Antiquity of tho l'euch. The peach is an improved variety of tho almond. Tho almond hns u thin bhell around tho btono, which splits open and exposes tho htouu when ma ttlre. This outer hkin bus himply be come fleshy in tho peach, to that is all that gives it its s.piciilo character. It seems now clear from investigation in tho history of ancient llabylon that in their gardens, now-nearly four thou sand years ngo, tho peach wus cultivut cd then us it is now. It must have been many years buforo this that tlio punch was improved from tho almond, nnd this fnct goes to show tho great antiquity of tbo fruit. CHlulllUR lltlKd.

FORCING AN ENTRANCE AT FEZ. rimlnB Through the (Into of a Morocco Town nt Midnight. Whilo Mr. llonsal, tho author of "Morocco ns it is,"wus in Pez, he wont out rif tho city ono ovoning todino with the members of tho English mission and returned nt midnight with llonzzn, u servant. Mr. llonsal was on his horso llussiiu, while 1 ton zzn went before him on foot with ti lantern, the night being pitch-dark. When they reached tlio guto of tho city It was shut, though It was etlll nn hour beforo closing time. Thoy knocked for ten minutes, but no ono appenrcd. Then thoy rapped at tho guard houso iu tho palnco of tho bashaw, nbout fifty yurds from tlio gate. Hero tho keys wero usually kept. The guards came out, about a dozen lu number, and nfter examining tho faces of the two mon with lanterns, went back into the guard houso and slammod tho door. Mr. llonsal thua narrates what followed: "Wo knocked again and soon tho whole neighborhood was aroused nnd denounced us in unmeasured terms from tho windows. Finally the gunrds ngnln throw opon tho doors, and this time, as they camo up, I noticed that thoy wcro armed. Six of them at leust had rifles, three or four presented pis tols, and tho rest carried bludgeons. They told us if wo did not go away Ufoy would shoot. r "Uoazza, my muleteer, stood his ground manfully. At last, as tho men continued to gather around mo in a most threatening manner, I drew my pistols nnd covered th.n. It must have been amusing to look ut. but It wns not amusing to live through. For fully throo minutes not iv bound was heard. "I am afraid I lost my temper, and certainly tho provocation was great. I remembered riding up to tho cold of the guard and giving him a sound box on tho ears. 'Uoazza and I wcro shouting for tho key ull tho while and tho guards wero loud in tho expression of a wish to soo my grandmother burned. Suddenly they inado unanimously for tho door, as I thought, to get the key. Uoazza was qutck-wlttod, and ns they turned to closo the door in our faces he put his foot on tho threshold and got it well smashed for his pains. "Seeing that their idea wns to let us spend tho night in tho dirty street, I put my horso against the door, wliiuh Uoazza hud succeeded in hooping n few inches open. The noxt moment tho door gnve wny, and to the unspeakablo surprise of tho guards, my horso and I, closely followed by Uoazza, wero pa rading in tho most magnificent manner inside the guard house. "Hassan was ns much surprised ns his rider, which is saying n good deul, nnd prancing nud kicking about, con trived to do no littlo dnmage. Two beautiful tiled tables, upon which tho caid was taking bis midnight tea, wero kicked into smithereens. Cups and. saucers wero broken, and he pranced nbout on tbo Zlinmoor rugs us if, those iicnuliful carpets were his nightly ding. "Tlio gunrds, myself nnd Uoazza scntednrmsiigaiii for about five min utes, somewhat nftor tho menacing fashion of rival armies In Italian opera. I soon discovered that tho old cuhl In cbnrgo of the night guard was its weak est member, und so, catching him by the ear, Riving it n good tug, I placed my pistol close to his templo nnd ex plained that unless the keys of the guto wcro forthcoming Iu very short oidcr thero would bo bloodshed. "Tho cuhl wns much flustered. Ilo swore that no insult had been intended; that the keys wero under tbo bashnw's pillow and could not bo got. I re mained obdurate nnd finally ho sont tv soldier upstairs ufter them. Mennwhih; wo stood in statuesque pose, tbo Moor) covering me with their rltlcs, and T witli tho shining barrel of my revolver within six inches of the old caid's bald cranium. j "Then tho Roldlorrcturncd, and with him camo tbo most repulslvo looking old rcprobnto thnt I hnd ever seen. It wns thu bashaw himself. He bad beon disturbed In his sleep; his oyc3 wero bloodshot, and his tinder lip hung over liko u hound's. Ho carried a candle,' which he held up, nnd studied my face with an expression of concentrated hatred such as I hopo I may novcr ex cite ngnln. i "My uttitudo of murderous mennco wns growing wearisome, when tho ba shaw terminated tho trying situation ' by saying: 'Ilrlng tlio keys.' In a mo- J ment the guto was opened, nnd wo rode through timid the curses of the angry , crowds that hnd now nssembled," Chlcngo Times. i How Clftnrottoi Aro Made. Tho details of tho munufuclurn of cignrettes nro kept to n greater or less dofjreo a secret by the manufacturers; ench of whom hns his own particular combination of tobaccos. None of the brands on tho market Is composed of ono kind only. The recipe Is not di vulged outsldo of tho Hnn. Uut this Is not all. Tho original mixture Is mere ly u basis for artificial flavoring. To begin with, various essential oils are lidded. Tho list of these Includes rose, rose geranium, viinllUi boan, Tonka bean und lieorlco root. These ingredi ents uro added ufter tho tobacco hns been chopped into shreds in rendiness tobo rolled Into cigarettes. Pinully thu particular drug chosen, in tho shnpc of a liquid solution, is sprayed on thu material with nn atomizer, whilo tho tobacco is stirred nnd mixed. The quantity employed is very carefully judged, so many drops being allowed lor uauti cigarette. For obvious reasons 1 cannot mention all the drug that uro used in tho muiiufucturo of cigarettes, but thero is no doubt that opium, va lerian and cannabis ludlea uro utilized to the largest extent.
