A Man With tha Blo.es, We have become pessimist enough to believe that life itself is a humbug that the man who makes the best of it is the man who escapes being born. We know not whence we came nor whither we are going, but the most of us get more shadow than sunsliine, more cholera morbus than ice cream. The moment that a man hits the globe he starts for the grave, and his only visible reward for long days of labor and nights of pain Is an epitaph he cannot read and a tombstone he does not want Shelby News. Brother, if you actually feel thus, we are most sincerely sorry for you. Your language indicates that you are in the last stage of "ennui." This condition of the system is often caused by bil iousness or long-standing torpidity of the liver. This may be corrected by a change in your habits. Eat regularly and sparingly ; drink no intoxicants; eschew tea and coffee and all nar cotics ; go to bed early and get up.in the morning ; if necessary, take a little medicine to assist nature, and in a short time you will begin to look at things through different spectacles, and life will not seem to you the dis mal failure that you pre f ess to think. N. B. We make no charge for this advice. Tha Hat Problem. An Indiana preacher has solved the big bat question. He simply scats tl e women on one side of the church and the men on the other, so the women ran look at each other's hate in peace, while the men can have an unobstructed view of the preacher.

WASHINGTON LETTER, POLITICAL GOHsIP AT TUK NATION'S l i CAPITAL. . The President's Return to Washington Military Conrt of Inquiry Washington State Prnaperlty--OolI Hauls In Ecnadoi Comparisons of AdmlnlHtratlona. Washington, April 3, 1899 Presi dent McKinley has not locked for work since his return to Washington, but the statements sent out saying that he was engaged in formulating orders to send to Gen. Otis and that he had about determined to issue a call for the 35,000 volunteers authorized by the army act of the last congress were guesses wide of the mark. He has sent no orders to Gen. Otis and has no reason to do so. (ten. Otis is fighting his campaign successfully, as his suc cessive victories show, and there is no intention to hamper him with orders from Washington. As to calling for the volunteers, that has not been ser iously thought of. Representative Hull, chairman of the military com mittee of the last house,' who enjoys the president's confidence, and who is good authority, said: "What would be the use of calling for more volun teers? We could not send them to the Philippines in time for service there, as all th" advice indicates that the U. 3. forces are strong enough to crush the insurrection." Two representatives of the Cuban Assembly are in Washington seeking official recognition and the consent of this government to an issue of Cuban bonds, but they will get neither. The military court of inquiry has been taking testimony, in Washington, all this week. Among the witnesses was Gen. Eagan, who stated that he made a mistake when he first testified that the contracts required . beef to keep seventy-two hours after leaving the refrigerators, and that twenty-four hours was the time he had agreed to. Mr. W. R. Gay, U. S. District At torney, who is at present in Washing ton on bdsinuss, gives this pleasing picture of, the state of Washington: "With the acquisition of Hawaii, the growth of our oriental trade, the prob able retention of the Philippines, the heavy Alaskan business incident to the Klondyke boom, and the big wheat crops that have lately blessed us, the Hate of Washington is not only enjoy ing prosperity, but Is sanguine of a bright future. The McKinley adminis tration fe 'very'-popular In1 bur stat.. and the foreign policy of the president Is cordially indorsed. Washington, I think, has got back into the republican column to stay. Free silver with us is the deadest sort of an issue and it would toe impossible to interest the ,'eople in it again. The following is taken from an offi cial report of the U. 8. Consul-Gen-eral to Ecuador: "The change by the world to a gold basis has finally driven Ecuador to adopt the same course, and congress has Just enacted a law of coinage which within two years will place the mrnetary system on a gold basis. Ecuador is the fourth country of Latin-America to adopt this measure, Venezuela, Costa Rica, and Peru having already taken this step. Brazil, Uruguay and Chile, while nominally on a gold basis, are really subject to the disadvantage of paper money, because their internal financial condition precludes an easy conversion of the currency." The public debt of the U. S. I an in teresting study, presenting some valu able object lessons in politics and gov ernment administration. The total public debt, less cash on hand, was on March 1, the latest date for which offi cial figures are obtained, tl, 157,904,392. Of this $834,622,000 is chargeable to the civil war; $'262,815,400 to the four years of Cleveland s last administra tion, and $193,366,000 to the war with Spain. If each individual paid a pro rata Bhare of the money needed to pay the interest of the entire debt, the charge would be about 63 cents a year. Of this, 30 cents would go to pay the costs of the civil war ; IS cents to pay the cost of the last Cleveland adminis tration, and 8 cents to pay the cost or the war with Spain. No greater ob ject lesson on the financial methods of a democratic and of a republican ad ministration could be found than is furnished by the issues of bonds under the last Cleveland administration and under the present administration. The annual interest charge on the bonds issued by the last Cleveland ad ministration, when the country was peaceful and ought to have been pros perous, is $11,492,616, while the annual interest charged on the bonds issued by the McKinley administration to light a successful war amounts to only 5,800,r0. Yet, the amojnl of bonds issued by the democrats only exceeded he amount issued by tliH republican by To8,940,450. McKinley sold 8 pei ient bonds to the people ; Cleveland sold A per cent bonds to asyndieah of bankers. The total of our publii debt Is a mere bagatelle compared with our wealth and resources. The continuation of the republican party in power, which would mean continued prosperity, would enable the'govern ment to pay It ff in a few years. Correspondence Stationery.

Mr. John Loug-Hls Blrth-Marrlage Trip to California- Bet urn-Huns a Saw Mlll-Ilurles the Dead-Always Voted the Republican Ticket. The subject of this sketch is one of our oldest and best known citizens. He was born in Rowsburg, Wayne county Ohio, June 20, 1815. The fam ily soon moved to Jackson township In that county, where John .was reared from infancy to manhood. In 1840 at the age of twenty-five he came to Wellington, where he was married the same year to Adeline F. Couch, a twin sister to our well-known townsman, Albert F. Couch. The ceremony which united these two young people, was performed by Wm. Howk, Esq., justice of the peace. Mr. Long established a little home on East Main street near the Gannett property, now occupied by Mr. Fred Douglass, and then . commenced the business of house-keeping and married life. There they lived for the ensuing ten years, when In 1850, Mr. Lonj! was stricken with a fever, a con tagious disease in those days, I. e. the California fever. This resulted in forming a party to go to the gold diggings. This party consisted of the following persons: From AVellington, Rufua Herrick, Erastus Nickerson, John Hardy, (who died in California) and John Zent. From Huntington: John and Joseph Ferris, Henry Wells, Jesse Johnson, John and Mathias Whiton, and a man named Kingsley. This party reached the town of Placerville, Cal., that year, after an overland trip of about three months duration, and commenced the business " ' ' :' Mi UNCLE JOHN LONG. of seeking their fortune. The subject of our sketcli says he remained there about two years, and while he did not get rich he had considerable fun and a good deal of experience. On returning to Wellington in lfv2, he went to work in a saw-mill one and a half miles east of town, where he worked fifteen years. On selling his mill he moved to town, and located on the corner of Elm and Union streets, where he still lives, and where his wife died twenty-two years ago. Some time after this he was appoint ed sexton of the cemetery and contin ued in that position also fifteen years, and during that time he buried 530 people, many of them people who had been identified with the beginning and growth of Wellington, and helped to make it what it is today. He had a family of eight children, three only of whom are living: Mrs. D. J. Battle and Mrs. E. M. McKinney of Wellington, and Mrs. Helen Hoyt of Norwalk. Of late years, Mr. Long has given up active labor, and turned over his work to younger hands, and we know that his surviving children will do all in their power to smooth the pathway of his declining years. The accompanying cut was made from a photograph taken quite recently and represents the subject very much as he appears today. Mr. Long is not a member of any church, but attends all and contributes liberally according to his means for their support. He was the first man who paid his money for The Enterprise thirty-three years ago, and has voted the republi can ticket ever since that party was hborn, nearly 45 years. In disposition, Mr. Long is rather inclined to retire within himself, and permit others to make the ad vances, but when you know him, kind and genial, a good neighbor, and a firm friend. As such we are pleased to know him and we bespeak for him many years to go and come among us and a peaceful setting of his earthly sun. Cant See Over the Wall. Chicago Junction and New London represent the growth and stability of Huron county. Obliterate them, and the county would be a dreary waste, a verit able "white sepulcher." New London Record.

The Committee In Charge Express Their Thanks to All-Pine Floral Display -Ea-celleut Music Good Attendance Cold and Snow Ontaide-Waruith, Geniality and Iteauty Indoors Pleasant Time All Around. The April Circle under whose aus pices the Flower Festival was given desire to acknowledge their obligation to all who assisted in any way to help make it a fine floral display, an agree able social occasion, and a financial success. Soloists, quartettes, orches tral performers, piano players, flower girls, table-waiters and the faithful ones who supplied them ; the generous public without whose presence all else would have been almost in vain, and the un-named workers who, with the florists, "Townsend and Yale", were responsible for every detail, deserve and have the gratitude of their co workers. The floral display was beau tiful and ample. The music both day and evening, choice, and the mingling of the people from first to last, free, hearty and delightful. The comments on the entertainment were most kindly and gratifying. With cold in the air and snow on the ground, the fragrance of hyacinths, the brilliant coloring of azaliaa, cin erarias, carnations, rests, geraniums, petunias and primroses was finely set off by the luxuriance of ferns, palms and begonias. The national colors were in evidence draped from the gal lery, and altogether there was no pleasanter place in Wellington in which to spend the last evening of blustering March, or to welcome the first day of April in which everyone is longing to realize the traditional "ethereal mildness" of spring. MULE DENTISTRY. Aa Expert Deatlst Whs Operatea Twenty-Four of the Ani mals Every Day. A Mexican miuing company which owns 300 mules keeps a deutist on its staff simply to look after the mules' teeth. One of Mr. Mule's amiable weakness es is the habit of bolting his food, which frequently causes dyspepsia or other diseases. This boltitg of his food is not caused by a desire to hasten bis meal, but because his molars, or back teeth, having more work to perform than his front teeth, wear away in the course of a few years and become much shorter than the front ones, thus allowing the food to pass into the stom ach without being properly masticated. In cases of this kind the incisors, or front teeth, have to be filed down an eighth qc a quarter of an inch. The molars of a mole are 2Vi Inches in length, while the incisors measure 2 Inches, and judging from his Bigns cf pain, the nerves are as sensitive as those of human beings. An expert dentist operates on 24 mules a day. The extracting instruments are from two to three feet in length, and the entire case of instruments weighs fully 50 pounds. The teeth of every mine mule are examined and treated, if necessary, once or twice a year. Too Maoh of a Contraat. A writer in a recent number of the Scotsman has been gathering up tha traditions, literary and social, connect ed with ihe buildings displaced by the alterations consequent on the recent reconstruction of the North Bridge, Edinburgh. Among other - buildings now being swept away is the shop in which Adam Bluck, the founder of the well-known firm of publishers, A. & C. Black, for many years carried on busi ness as a bookseller and stationer, and where the reputation of the firm was made; and in this connection the amus ing story giving Mr. Black's reason for refusing the offer of knighthood made to him in recognition of his great civic services is recalled. "Na, na," said he, "it would never do to have the laddies comin' into the shop and sayin': 'Sir Adam, I'll tak' a pennyworth of pens!' " Advertlae High la the Air. The latest means of advertising thea ters and newspapers in London is to send up stationary balloons at night with large letters painted on the out side and electric lights within. The Search for Relief. Sufferers from Rheumatism often spend large amounts ot money and con sume much time In their eager attempts to find relief or cure. This search for health is a pathetic one, because it so often ends in disappointment. We would not it we could induce any patient to try Ath-lo-plio-nie, did we not know that this remedy Is an absolute cure for Rheumatism in all its forms. Behold this witness! Table Rock, Neb., April 4, 1898. Gentleman: I have been afflicted with Rheumatism for several years and tried several different kinds of medicine and could find none that would be ot any relief until I at last was told to try Ath-lo-pbo-ros, which I did and was immediately relieved, and In a short time cured. I am happy to say that it has not since returned. Yours truly, Mrs. Lulu Black. For sale at druggists. Send tor tree treatise to The Ath-lo-pho-ros Co., New Haven Conn. Rev. E.
