Inaugural ceremonies in connection

Admission to Jackson park on dedi

Those invited are national, state and
municipal officers throughout the coun

purchase exposition stock, which is
sold at 110 a share. A purchaser is
entitled to an invitation. Arrange

Offspring of a Hoodoo 'Old Sen.
A prosperous old farmer in Lone Tree
•alley has a hen that has set the
tongues of all the old women gossips
wagging. It is a common barnyard hen
but it has, nevertheless, created a sen
sation. Some months ago a mule
stepped on the hen's leg and broke it.
The farmer was in the barn at the time
and heard the hen squawk, and, upon
examination, found the mule standing
upon its leg. He took his knife, cut
the broken leg off and turned her loose
and in due time she recovered and was
the liveliest kind of a one-legged hen.
After this accident, however, the hen
would not go near the barn, and, in
fact, had a habit of wandering off by
herself. Some time ago it was discov
ered that she had a nest full of eggs in
a fence corner and was setting on them.
The eggs were coffee-colored and mot
tled, looking a good deal like turkey
eggs except that they were small. The
other day seven of the eggs hatched
and they were the .funniest-looking
chickens that were ever hatched. In
stead of having feathers they were cov
ered with a woolly covering that re
sembled fur, a sort of cross between
feathers and hair. Four of 'the little
chickens had wattles that stood straight
up above the head, giving them a very
mulish look. All the women are sure
that it is a case of marked chicken.—

SOUTHERN FRANKNESS.
Some Sample Sayings by People Who
Speak for the Democrats.
I am for the brave Buffalo man who
slapped the dirty pensioners, who are
for the most part beggars, in the face.
They were dirty and lousy rascals who
came into this country, and who abused
women, who burned homes, who stole
all that was in sight, and today, with
out an honorable scar, are bleeding this
country, and 1 am helping to pay for it.
Let the hired Yankees howl! 1 am of
the south and for the south. The pen
sion fraud is a theft, and we repeat that
no man can honestly defend it. The
south has been taxed to death to pay
this Grand Army of rascals—those bottle
scarred bums who reach in the empty
palm—and when Cleveland struck the
beggars in the face he did a good busi
ness job. We hope to God that he may
have a chance to hit 'em again. Va
grants and mendicants should be both
vigorously slapped and kicked.—Dur
ham (N. C.) Globe.
i
persons, whose tickets will indicate
the portions of the hall where good.
All other ticketliolders, excepting 2,500
distinguished guests, will occupy seats
iu the order of first come first served.
Cleveland vetoed over 250* pension
bills and allowed a large number to die
by what is known as the "pocket veto."
Because of this work Cleveland was de
feated four years ago, when he should
have been re-elected.—Raleigh News
Observer.
This drain of $40,000,000 is exhaust
ing the energies of the south, and, in
connection with the tariff taxes, has re
duced the southern farmer to a condi
tion of actual want. The continuation
of Benjamin Harrison in the presiden
tial chair opens the way for a still fur
ther looting of the treasury. A service
pension bill will be passed before long
unless the people drive off the looters.—

The Bird That Thrives on Calamity.
The resolntiou of the conTentlon In fa
vor of bimetalliftui declares, I think, the
true and necessary conditions of a move
ment that lias, upon these lines, my cor-
Co.
dial aunerence ana support. I am thor
oughly convinced tliat the free coinage of
silver at such a ratio to gold as will maia
tain tlie equality in their commercial
unm
of the two coined dollars would conduM
to the prosperity of all the great produc
ing and commercial nations.—Harrison's
Letter of Acceptance.
Another "Congratulation" on Maine.
Chairman Manley, of the Maine Re
publicans, evidently believes in the old
adage that "he laughs best who laughs
last." Anyway, he is now having his
"laugh." Chairman Harrity, of the
Democratic committee, sent out a con
gratulatory address to the Democrats on
the result of the Maine election without
waiting for full returns. Now that the
votes are all counted Mr. Manley has
his turn. He says:
"The Republican state committee de
sire to congratulate the Republicans of
Maine upon the full and complete vic
tory achieved on Monday last. The
Democratic party, with the best organi
zation it has had for years, failed to poll
as many votes by 6.000 as it gave to its
candidate for governor in 1888, and did
not cast as many votes as it gave its
candidate for governor in 1884, in 1880
or in 1876. Complete returns show that
the Republicans have elected Henry B.

Effect of Reciprocity with Brazil.

agreement wiih Brazil had been in ex
istence fifteen
