cowboys; sheeprlaughtered, re

outright in the mad struggle for pos

JOLLIED THE WRONG MAN.
Jim Corbett Thrashed Three Soldiers
Who. Were Impudent.
New 'York, August 6. When
three Willett Point soldiers came
to their senses on the roadway near
Bay Side' and found the card of
James J. Corbett pinned on each of
their coats they realized that they
had been 'up against the real
thing."
Corbett lives in retirement on a
small farm in Bay Side and spends
much of his time in his garden.
Yesterday lie was coming from the
further end of the farm and was
driving along the road clad in blue
jeans overalls and an old fanner's
hat. He noticed three soldiers com
ing toward him but paid no atten
tion to thp. When the soldier
came up toho supposed farmer
they made insiing remarks about
him. Corbett overheard the re
marks, tied his horse to a tree on
the roadside and went up the road
after the soldiers. He overtook
them before they had gone far and
asked .them Avhy thoy had used such
language to him. For answer, one
of them struck Corbett in the face.
Corbett squared oft". The fight as
brief. . Corbett knocked the soldier
down with one blow, then the otl .er.
started in to "do" the pugilist. He
struck but with his l-fcht and a
second and then t4ee Aird soldier
measured his length Jk the road-
5 way. Then Gorbett
binned one of
his cards on each otheir coats and
went away. Post.
STORM RAISED BY KAISER.
New Yee-k. Aug. 16. A perfect
storm has been laised in (strniany
by the pssfek'cation of the Emperor's
telegraai the Prince Regent of
IkvarisLc3iticising the conduct of
the Reiohsrath andofteringto make
a gift o)f t he money which the
Ktachsrath refused to vote for art
puzpose cables the Tribune's Lon
don arnespondent. There is a dis-
posifaGHa to regard tJie incident as
am unwarrantable interference in
the dames tic affairs of the federated
States. The radical press disclaims
isr the most part the idea that the
Empawjr acted soleh in the inter
ests f art.
PTE&'S PENCE COLLECTION
Rome, Aug. 16. Assumption
Day collection of Peter's Pence in
all the churches of Rome aggregat
ed, only $5000 much less than ex
pected.
THE FATHER'S REMEDY.
An English popular journal is
responsible for the following gem:
"Inrthe public schools of some cities
measures are taken, by presumably
competent olhcials, to test the
children's eyesight upon the assnmp-
ition often too well founded that
the parents are not sufficiently
watchful in that important partic
ular. A little boy came home one
da, soon after the term had com
menced, with the following note
signed by the principal: "Mr.
Green Dear Sir: It becomes mv
duty to inform you that our son
shows decided indications of astig
matism, and his case is one that
should be attended to without
delaj'." The father sent his answer
the next day: Mr. KershawDear
Sir: Whip it out of him. Youra
truly John Green.' n

Local Issues May Give Next House
to the Democrats.
New York, August 16. Senator
N. B. Scott of West' Virginia was a
caller todaj at republican congres
sional headquarters, where he held
a consultation with Chairman Bab--'
cock and Secretary Overstreer. .
Their conference related to the gen
eral condition of the congressional
campaign and in particular to th&
outlook in -West Virginia.
Afterward Senator Scott said tua:
Mail and Express reporter: '"I am
not one of those who regard the i&t
publican prospect of retaining con
trol of the next house of represen
tatives as certain. I am inclined to?
be a pessimist on the subject lo
calise there is a prevalent spkit of
over-confidence. Unless we ran
shake off this apathy, the party'
will be in danger of losing its ma
jority in the lower branch of con
gress. " If thd campaign should be fought
on National issues alone we would ''
have the democratic part' beatem
to a standstill They can not give
us battle onlfthe tariff or on, the 4
trusts, or on the Philippine., OF.po--
any other issue that has Vesi sugu

"For example, iii iviay own State

Every one of them sliouldbe repub

three of them 1 ceanuof thc eoa?

Wheal he is threatened with bcdaJLr
harm he will move over into Ohio "
where he can findu work wit!bini
danger of physical aasasiM- m-U
has happened already m eonsid
able numbers. If the strike-scold
be settled promptly, then these col
ored exiles would return to! their:
homes in West Virginia, wifheufc
having been absent long enough to
lose, their votes. There are other
local troubles in Pennsylvania, ia
Wisconsin, in 3Iichigai. and . elsewhere."

OUR BILLION-DOLLAR
GOVERNMENT! .
Onlooker.
One billion a year! A fat, and!
rotund figure when one reflects that
with a population of 9,000,000 Mr.
Monroe ran the Government for
eight and a half annual millions. .
The stark Jackson, with a census
! of 13,000,000, conducted affairs with
an outlay of thirteen early mil
lions of moneys. We were a world's
menace; and forced France to pay
over sundry reluctant bags of gold .
and acknowledge her fault in the
claim of "Once a subject, always at
subject," at the muzzle of the gnn
Mr. Van Buren transacted the peo-
ple's business at an aggregate an
nual cost of $15,000,000 about a-
dollarahead for population. In.
Mr. Buchanan's last year, the yeat-
of 1860, the whole figure of Govern
ment expenditures fell heW zzz
000,000. As late as 1890, it was half
a billion a year, and a Rpnnhlir,
House was swept down with fh
warcryof "A billion-dollar Con
gress!" Now it is a two-billion dollan
congress; yet folk seem calm..
