" The statement has been widely circulated , probably by parties who wished it might be true , that John B. Alden , Publisher , of New York , Chicago , and Atlanta , had joined the "Book Trust , " which is trying to monopolize the publication of standard books , and to in crease prices from 25 to 100 per cent. Mr. Alden sends us word that be has NOT joined the trust , and there is not and never has been any probability of his joining it. The "Liter ary Revolution" which has accomplished such wonderful results within the past ten years , in popularizing literature of the highest character ( no "trash" ever finds place on his list ) still goes on. Instead of increasing prices , large reduction in prices has recently been made particularly on copyright books by American authors. A catalogue of 96 pages is sent free to any applicant. One of the latest issues from his press is "Stanley's Emin Pasha Ex pedition , " by Wauters , a very handsome , large type , illustrated volume , reduced in price from f 2.00 to 50 cents. This work tells a most interesting and complete story , begin ning with the conquest of Soudan , and con tinuing through years of African exploration , the revolt of the Mahdi , the siege of Khar toum , with the death of Gordon , the return of Dr. Junker , besides the story of Stanley's own adventures , including his successful Be lief Expedition. It is one of the best and most complete works IsBued upon the subject. Send Alden your address , and you will re ceive bis 96-page catalogue , and from time to time specimen pages of his new publications. John B.

Two traveling men named Waterman and Anderson , respectively , while here on Tues day took occasion to go bathing , and because another traveling man named Mosier wouldn't be persuaded into accompanying them they took one of his shoes and "hungit up. " They then went swimming , and Mosier , oh , where was he ? He was making a sneak on Water man's pants , and he got 'em , too , and ran up town with them , much to the discomfort of "Waterman , who was obliged to pluck aflg leaf to cover his nakedness in order to make proper connection with bis pants , which were quietlv reposing up town. He reached them at last , and putting them on , Mosier kept the files off his lower extremities by sprinkling : generously with ice water a service greatly appreciated by Waterman , judging by the muscular effort he put forth in hurling shoes and other missies at his benefactor. When he went down into his jeans for his cash Mosier told him to "never mind , " he'd pay for the cigars for the crowd , as he had taken charge of that pocket book himself. The joke was taken all in good part by Waterman , who , we'll guarantee , will get even , if ho has not done so 'ere this. Wauneta Breeze.

The long expected rain has filled the hearts of many with joy and gladness. True the wheat crop is a failure , but outside of that , the crops are more promising. The silk worms of the Bev. E. J. Hall are do ing well so far. In about three weeks , they will begin to spin their cocoons. In allowing Mr. Hall to pick leaves oil your mulberry hedges , yon are enabling him to promote a most valuable industry. Persons who have nothing else to employ the Hying minutes of their life but to spread false reports with tho determined purpose of breaking up a church and overthrowing the work of God , aro unworthy of any respect and consideration in the community in which they live , whether they engage in their sly and low work under the impulse of their own mind , or whether they are the rational tools of other still baser minds. The farmer certainly has the hardest time of any other class of business men. He wears out his strength to raise some crops that will put him in shape to meet his debts and keep his family from starvation. If his crops fail , he then becomes the easy prey of his creditors and money loaners who , void of any human feelings , crush him under the weight of their unreasonable demands , with the prospect of robbing him of his home and , by way of adver tising our western country , drivo him back east in a broken down ana starving condition.
