JL It. is suidjto have boon Sjunior Haunn's
jr first defeat. It is perhaps the first time
p he has uttotuptod anything so contrary
, to the wishes of the pooplo.
Tloporta from Chicago are that the
cou.hmed heavy chipmouts of gouornl
morclumdite remains the chief feature
of the trufllo situation of the weat , indi
cating good times nud nn nbnudnuco of
money. The west is fairly prosperous ,
thank you , nud there is no sign of its
immediate cessation , as yet.
The Nebraska City Trlbuuo recently
advertised for olonn oottou rrvg.s and the
people Jumped at the conclusion that it
svrts buying thorn for shipment aud
brought in rags hy the wngou-load , un
til the pnper was compelled to retract ,
and explain that nil they wanted was a
ccitniu quantity of rags with which to
clean up the machinery of the plant.
All of which inivkos it appear possible
that the rag-buyer could bo doing a
profitable business in Nebraska towns
fl they have done further east.
The number of states thnt have
pledged their support to President
Bocsovelt for the republican nomination
gives nsEnranco thnt ho will bo the
nominee of the convention next year , if
the pledges hold , with votea to spare.
There nro u number of states , also , not
yet pledged , but that are as safe for
liini as though the pledge had been
glvon. It really BOOIUS hopeless for auy
attempt to bo niado for dissatisfied re
publicans to bring forward anyone else
\vho will stand the ghost of a show in
convention. The people have nlrendy
spoken nud the ropublicnn party is not
given to ignoring their wishes.
As President Roosevelt works his way
east Borne of the pApers are alleging thnt
Iio is passing out of the danger line , in
timating that his trip through the far
western part of the country was among
people who would as soon assassinate
the chief executive of the country as
oat. As a matter of fact , he was never
in a safer section of the country. The
rollicking cowboys of the plains are
sometimes demonstrative and use their
fibc-Ehooters with considerable flourish ,
but it is a safe guess that the worst of
them would not hurt a hair of the presi
dent's head if given full opportunity to
do eo. Many of them have killed theii
men , hut they have usually had some
provocation , and there are fewer public
man killed In the stutog wont of the
Hocklus than in Kentucky alouo , while
all of the immlorod presidents have
mot their fate in the onbt from sneaks
and cow < mlH guoh as the west cannot
ubldo. On the contrary the men of the
wojt are over ready to punish the pur-
son who will nuiko way with ij , puhllc
ofllulnl.
QUAINT LONDON LEGACIES ,
Iio I inof Tin-in Slumtlie Olil Time
llxtlmntt' of HoriuoiiH.
Some curious Kllmpws Into' the life
of old Lowljni are aft'onlcd liy the re
ports iiiaiU' In the charity commission
on the endowed charltleH In the county
of London. For Instance , In the re
ports dealing with the city parishes
we have an estimate of the value seton
on sermons by city men In olden times.
That estimate varied from " > shillings
to 1 10s. One Thomas lU-lnht had
left a bequest for 'i sermon to be preach
ed on the tith of November every time
It fell on n Sunday , the minister to get
loS.Id. . , the clerk ! ! s.Id. . and the sexton
la.Id. . But David Gittlu had a more
modest Idea of the value of a sermon
In the same parish. Iio required two
ecrmons for 10 shillings , one to bo
preached on the second Sunday In Ad
vent and the other on the second Sun
day In Lent. The reader got 2 shil
lings , the churchwarden 2s. Sd. nud
the poor sexton fourpence for each oc
casion. John Ireland thought 13s. 4d.
enough for two sermons.
In 10(50 ( John Wliui left n curious bequest -
quest to the parish of St. IScnnct , Paul's
Wharf. A pound was set apart for an
annual sermon , the text to bo tnkon
from the lU'tli chapter of St John nnd
the twenty-seventh verse. He also left
enough to buy twelve penny lonvcs for
twelve poor people of the parish who
attended n sermon every Friday In the
parish church. But ho expected more
for his pound than the annual sermon ,
for before or nftor the sermon the min
ister luul to spend nu hour examining
or Instructing the poor people In the
Christian doctrine.
The most generous donor of the
preacher was James Wood , who thought
a sermon In St NIcholns-Cole-Abbey
was worth 110s. every ulternntc year.
In lG2o ho bequeathed to the Company
of Bowyors n sum to enable them ,
among other tilings , to repair to the
parish church named , after they had
sworn in their wardens and master ev
ery second year , there to hear n ser
mon nnd pay the parson 1 10s. and
the clerk and eexton Is. 5d. each , Jin
the pariah of St. Michael Basslshaw
0110 Edward lleyliu In the eighteenth
century left money the interest on
which was to be applied to purchasing
two sixpenny loaves each Sunday for
two poor men or women who should at
tend dlylue service. Londou News ,
A Clever SIctliod of Stcnllnsr.
An ingenious nnd successful trick
was played at a London lint In broad
daylight. A gentleman rang the bell
at 3 o'clock nnd Inquired whether Mr.
Grey was at homo. ' "N'o , sir , " said the
Janitor. "Ho rarely If ever comes bnck
from the temple before 5 o'clock. "
"Thnt Is strange , " returned the other ,
"siuco 1 know he has an appointment
hero with a Mr. Johnson at 4 o'clock. "
Then he went his way.
At 4 o'clock to the minute Mr. John-
Bon willed nnd , giving his nnuio , was
of course allowed to wait In Mr.
Grey's npartments , which ho denuded
of everything of "portable value" In
ten minutes nnd then wnlked out , ob
serving ns he passed the porter that he
could wait no longer.
Followed the Uxuuiple of Cnto.
In the first year of the last century
Londou affected great admiration for
Cato's suicide , the feeling being arous
ed by Addlson'a play. A gentleman
named Budgell , nfter witnessing its
performance , throw himself Into the
Thames on his way homo. Ills body
\vas recovered , nnd on it was found i
icrap of , pnper with those words : "Who
Cnto did and Addlson approved mus
needs bo right. "

A IUfi Tlmt In Feared.
The clster ( Pica cnudatn ) la a bird
thnt Is respected nnd feared through
out south Germany. It belongs to the
raven tribe and la about the elzo of a
dove , with black nnd whlto fonthors
and long , pointed tall. It builds Us
nest In orchards , and Its life la sacred.
If It Is seen three times In succession
on the same house top In n place remote
from Its home It Is believed to bo a
euro sigu of death In that house. If 11
fllea over a house where nny one Is 111
nnd gives Its peculiar cry the sick per-
eon Is sure to die , but If It does not
Bcreaiu the patient may recover. It Is
better for the sick person If the bird
docs not come near.
No ono could bo hired to bother these
birds for fear they might seek revenge ,
nnd If by chance one of them should
die it la a sign of bad luck to the own
er of the property where It was found
The bird Is a valuable Insect destroyer
nnd In this wny probably more than
compensates for the 'fear It occasions
among the farmers.
GARLYLE AND EMERSON.
Ko Evidence Tliut Hither Bvor Serl-
oiiNly .Studied Chrlxt faulty.
The grave charge Is to be brought
against both Cnrlyle and Emerson that ,
while they were the product of Chris
tian civilization nml drew the sub
stance of their message1 from the re
ligious faith of their people , there is
no evidence that either ever seriously
studied Christianity. The greatest
phenomenon In human history engages
but lightly- the attention or the enthu
siasm of either , nor does either fathom
the need of the humanity that has
risen on the strength of the gospel of
Christ. It was the dim perception of
his fact that led Lord Jeffrey to re-
nark to Carlyle that ho went about
as If he were to found a new religion.
No one had done anything for man's
oul until he came. One can hardly
read the correspondence of Carlyle and
Emerson without the feeling of their
excessive eonsequentlnlncss "in the
> resence of the Immense historic
ichievement of spiritual genius ; In the
) rOsenco of the spirit , the teaching and
ho Inlluence of Jesus. Both were es
sentially modest men , and yet they
Ived In the sense of a uniqueness and
an Importance which they do not pos
sess. They are both frequently oracu-
ar when uttering with literary dlstlnc-
lon only the commonplace moral wis
dom of the Christian world. It Is n
valid criticism upon Carlyle and Emer
son that they failed to recognize the
rock whence they were hewn nnd thnt
hey did not exhaust the quarry ; thnt
they were oblivious of the pit whence
they were digged , nnd that the precious
netal remained after they were taken
out lu boundless abundance. Rev.
George A. Gordon , D. D. , In Atlantic.

Thunderstorms are more frequent In
Java than In any other part of the
world , there being an average of ulne-
ty-soven days In each year upon which
hey occur. Next to Java comes Suma-
ra , which never has leas than eighty-
six "thunder days" per year. Then
come Hindustan with 50 , Borneo with
54 , the African Gold Coast with 52 nnd
ho region around Rio de Janeiro , Bra
zil , with 51. The European list Is head
ed by Italy , with 38 thunder days out
of the 3G5 o'n an average. Austria hna
23 ; Baden , Wurtteniberg and Hungary
each average 22 ; Silesia , Bavaria nnd
Belgium have 21 ; Holland nnd Saxony
IS ; France , Austria and south Russia

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together , and until the last few
years was supposed to bo incurable.
For a great ninny years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies , and by constantly fail
ing to euro with local treatment , pro
nounced it incurable. Science lieu
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tion treatment. Hall's Catarrh Onre ,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co. , Toledo , Ohio , is the only constitu
tional euro on the market. It is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
tenspoonful. It acts directly ou the

tem. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
