TOLD BY A LIAR.
There Is "wine that is mingled "with
tears. Wine, the rosy wine, it is sood
eomotimes; sood for the weary brain, the
aching1 head and exhausted muscle. It
refreshes and invigorates, and the quick
ened pulses responding to its electric
.thrill teU that uw life has entered where
svas before palsied energy and lifeless zeal.
But omimngled with this fiery draught
from Odin's -bowl may be the bitterest
rail of wormwood .and despair. There arc
lears melted with the crushed fruit and
yelling fiends scream into the ears which
Ore confused with the din of earthly woe.
and troubled disappointment. Hope and
despair; elevated ideas tr.nd vulgar failure;
achievemont and vanquished efforts; con
quest and defeat; all merge and dovetail
Dne into the other like the sutures of the
bony cage which protects the mystic
brain.
Seven years ago last week a. wedding
hurriedly took place in Wichita which
was ell that mockery can mean. All par
ties were strangers in the city, and the
ceremony took place in secret at the rec
tory of a then prominent divine, years ago
Soft the city. Four covered carriages
rove up to the parsonage soon after din
ii . r on that bright and sunshiny autumn
diy. All the ladles were richly dressed
"and heavily veiled. Two gentlemen, also
tvtyllshly attired, accompanied the party,
and all entered the private study of the
minister. The civil features had been com
pLd with and the law was satisfied.
Then followed the sickening tragedy. The
r ual which sounded the. knell of a prom
ising life and stomped as a hollow farce
i'ip solemn ceremony of marriage. The
t-Mc. was a lovely and lovable girl of
T nbaWy eighteen years. Her mother was
h'ttays close at her side, sometimes with
no arm around roe trembling, shaking
i irm of her daughter she who was to be
driven like a lamb to the slaughter, the ox
1 i th fattening shambles. Pale, terribly
iiervcus, and with the pallor of the grave,
i 10 stricken girl-wife approuohed the or-
il like the quarry slave to his doom.
bhe tried to appear very calm, and even
. aempted a smile. But it withered away
ntj the old. set stare of the madman
culled like winter's withered leaves. The
iro -t of a fearful woo bad forever blight
c i the youth and the elasticity of the child
martjr. The groom was a much older
man, wbote face, though intelligent and
extractive in expression, foore the cynical
FneeV of one who has accomplished some
t ung by subterfuge and duplicity which
never could have been done by honorable
me thods and logical sequence. The mock
heroic scene was enacted in all its horri
b'e details, the last benediction was pro
xiiunced as was required by law and the
regulations of the church, and the party
p3rted to retire. Just then the door open
ed and in walked a young man, grimy and
txld with long and hard travel. With
u fierce, hurried look over the room and
Into the faces of the party, he stalked de
E.bprately across the room. He gave a
bitter smilo of ironical disgust at the offi
ciating minister, another of undying hate
and satanic defianco toward the parents
of the now marble caste girl, and with a
bound like that of a cat at its helpless
victim he sprang deftly upon the mifera
Jble, quailing groom and with one fearful
tolow laid his senseless on tho floor. The
delicate form of tho girl now lay pros
trate on the floor toy the side of her just
anade husband. Tenderly and with eyes
dimmed with the mist of just that sub

the Immtmse system of paokeries known
as the Jascob Dold Packing company once
said that the secret of profitable abattoir
maijagement -was so!tf.y in the knowledge
of now to cut up a 'hog, that the most
vaXie and least -waste would result. There
are Almost numberless uts, special parts,
and regular portions of a hog, and they
neviar merge one into the other either,
but are as much separated and independ
ent as a. sheep from a hog. There are
stajfles .known to the trade all over the
provision, dealing world and they are as
much standard as any article of com
merce. J"or instance, these are a few of
the rgulur cuts differing in no manner
here from all slaughtering establishments
of the world: Loins, siioulders. neck
bones, tenderloins, trlmnwnjjs, hog brains,
chittvp-iiigs, raw leaf lard; pig( tails loin

department. Then in tho dry sale meats

butts, boneless backs, and other smaller
cuts. Jn toe smoked moars (dry salt cure)
are these regulation staple's: Bacon short
clear sides, foacon extra short clear sides
bacon backs, bacon bellitis, bacon plates
or "Foste- bncks," bacon fat backs. Then
come endless novelties, specialties, etc.,
such as boneless pigs feet, roulette,
luncheon ham, bam j;a.Tisage, pickled
goods. spiced' tongues, tripe, various
brands of lard. California or picnic hams,
many different brands of sausages, head
cheese and other. These are not Dold's
especially, but recognized cuts and sta
ples produced all ovetf. But the interest
ing feature Is that all these varying
pieces must be taken from their special
portion of the hog, and in cutting up a

A RAILROAD STORY,
j A very amusing Incident happened on
the mixed train from Wichita to Engle
j wood ono day last week that will not pass
oy unnoticed, at isnt in the order of
things that such trains should travel very
rapidly and sometimes there is consid
erable growling among the traffic. "Are
we most there, conductor?" asked a
nervous man for the hundredth time.
"Remember, my wife is sick and I am
anxious." "We'll get there on time," re
plied the conductor, stolidly. Half an
hour later the nervous man approached
him again. "I guess she's dead now,"
said he mournfully, "but I'd give you
something extra If you could manage to
catch up with the funeral. Maybe she
won't be so decomposed but what I could
recognize her." The conductor growled
at him and he subsided. "Conductor,"
said he, after an hour's silence, "if the
wind Isn't dead ahead I wish you would
put on some steam. I'd like to see where
my iwife is buried before the tombstone
crumbles to pieces. Put yourself in my
place for a moment." The conductor
shock him off and he relapsed into pro
found melancholy. "I say, yju conduc
tor," said he, after a long pause, "I've
ot a note coming due ln three months.
: run't von m it n n i oir.no-
little." "If you come near me again I'll
knock you down," snorted the conductor,
savagely. The nervous man regarded him
sadly and went to his seat Two hours
later tho conductor saw him chatting
gaily and laughing heartily with a brother
victim and approached him. "Don't feel
so badly about your wife's death?"
"Time heals all wounds," sighed the nerv
ous man. "And you are not so particular
about the note?" sneered the conductor.
"Not now. That's all right. I've been
figuring up and I find the note has been
outlawed since I spoke to you last."
NEW WICHITA INDUSTRY.
There has recently started in Wichita a
new and novel industry which will be
.suiting butter. It looks more like vase-
jllno in appearance than anything else.

(and taste is that entirely of the commer
cial peanut. It remains to be seen wheth
er this new table delicacy will becomo
popular enough to justify the putting in of
capital to any considerable extent.
HUMORS OF SMALL CHANGE
The motorneers and conductors on the
several lines of street tramways in the
city all concur in the statement that days
will run in remarkable evenness in regard
to the money denominations they receive.
For instance there will be several days
when they receive almost nothing else hut
quarters. Then will come a day or two
of half dollars, then dollars, and perhaps
there will follow a period of nothing but
dimes. All motorneers and conductors
are always provided with change up to
two dollars, and are ready at any time to
change any piece of coin, but as it aver
ages week in and week out, they say the
days rarely or never run mixed. It is
either one amount or another, but each
several days at a time for each.
