How Scotchmen Marry.
In Scotland the path to matrimony
THREE PRESIDENTS VICTIMS OF ASSASSINS'
is broader and smoother than In Eng
land. The great holiday time In Glas
gow is tho fair week. All the ship
yards are closed and man has time to
marry. But many shirk the tollgates
of the high road. Seventy Irregular
marriages took place this fair in Glas
gaw. The method is simple and inex
pensive. The couple take each other
for man and wife before witnesses, and
then they go to the sheriff and ask for
warrant to register. There is an ab
sence of fuss and wedding cake which
appeal to the modest and economical
mind. Besides miners, laborers, engi
neers and shipyard workers generally,
the seventy numbered a ventriloquist,
a physician, a valet, a school board
officer, a hotel-keeper, a coachman, a
soldier, a sea captain, a lapidary and
a motor car driver. London Chronicle.
Hulls In Parliament.
If It were not for the Irish members
of parliament half of the fun of par
liamentary proceedings would be lost.
"Sir," said an Irish A. P., "if I have
any partiality for the honorable mem
ber, it is against hlra!" "Sir," said
another, "I answer boldly In the af
firmative, No!" "The silence of the
Irish members of the house," said an
other, "shall be heard no longer!"
Sir John Parnell declared that "Every
man ought to be ready to give his last
penny to save the remainder of his for
tune!" while another spoke of "Re
deeming a character Irretrievably
lost!" Another member declared that
he was not going to reiterate what he
was going to say, but that "the time
has come Indeed is rapidly arriving
when the population of Ireland will be
decimated by two-thirds!" London
Tit-Bits.
Good Manners.
Good manners are the result of
training and example. Nature makes
a child selfish, and It Is hard for a
child to do the things he does not like
to do. Society has long since agreed
upon certain formal rules of politeness.
Not one of these but teaches deference
to others and unselfishness. Patient
perseverance In repeating what must
bo obeyed and the order that must be
observed will at last effect the well
bred child a satisfaction to his friends
and a pride unto himself all his life
time. Politeness and a self-respecting
bearing Is bo much capital to the boy
and girl who must work their way In
the world.
ltarterla of Fatigue.
Professor Gautler, a member of the
Institut de France, says that In Isolat
ing tho bacteria of physical fatigue he
has found that they are a poison
strongly resembling ptomaine poison
lh nature. From this he argues that
fatigue can, by the use of disinfectants,
be avoided like any other poison, and
consequently nan need not weaken or
age.
By the Attempt to Kill President
McKinley,
ARE MURDERED BY MANIACS.
Two Previous Attempts Have Item
Miule by Fanatics I'pon the Life of
McKlnley Jackson Was Once Shot at
by u SI nd man.
Two presidents of the United States
Abraham Lincoln and James A. Gar
field have fallen before the assassin's
bullet prior to the crime at Buffalo. An
attempt was made to assassinate An
drew Jackson, but was thwarted. Pres
ident McKlnley's life has been threat
ened twice before this last event.
The murder of President Lincoln
came at the close of the costly and
bloody civil war; at a moment when
all the man from Illinois had strug
gled for seemed about to be realized;
In the hour when the triumph of the
republic seemed the greatest. The as
sassin was John Wilkes Booth, an ac
tor, a brother of the afterward famous
tragedian, Edwin Booth, and a mis
anthropist of the most pronounced
type.
Almost at the moment that Presi
dent Lincoln .was assassinated Lewis
Payne Powell, son of a Florida clergy
man, broke Into the residence of Sec
retary Seward, where the latter was
lying 111, and whom he stabbed In sev
eral places. He also fractured the
skull of Mr. Seward's son. stabbed n
soldier on duty and two other persons
and made his escape.
Booth was shot by his pursuers and
Payne was hanged.
BULLETS.
Shooting of CiarfleM.
On the 2d of July, 1881, all over the
United States, at 9:38 in tho morning,
the telegraph instruments suddenly
opened with the Washington call.
Operators who wondered at the sudden
Interruption sprang, to their keys and
listened to the slow delivery of this
message:
"President Garfield was shot this
morning at the Baltimore and Ohio de
pot by Charles Gulteau."
Thks was the second presidential as
sassination to be spread on the pages
of American history. That morning
President Garfield, accompanied by
Secretary of State Blaine, had gone to
the Baltimore and Ohio depot In Wash
ington to take a train to Williams Col
lege, Ohio. It was his old college and
he was to be the guest of honor at the
commenceent exercises. He was In
unusually happy mood and chatted
gayly with Mr. Blaine. They entered
the station waiting room together. As
they passed the door Charles J. Gul
teau, the assassin, stepped up behind
Mr. Garfield and shot him. The presi
dent sank to the floor, officers seized
Gulteau and the dread news was flash
ed to all parts of the country.
Suffered Intense Agony.
As soon as possible the president was
removed to the White House, and
later, by advice of his physicians, was
removed to a cottago at Elberon, N.
J., where he died Sept. 19, 1881.
The entire country lived with him
during his hours of agony and mourn
ed when he passed away. He was a
man of superb constitution and his bat
tle for recovery is one of the saddest
stories to be recorded. Gulteau was a
blind partisan whose mind had been
worked upon by the stories of the bit
ter political fight then raging be
tween the president and Senators
Conkllng and Piatt of New York. The
man had been a crank all his life, a
monomaniac, and had gone deliberate
ly to Washington to kill the president,
believing that by so doing he would
save the country and advance himself.
He had sought office and been disap
pointed and he brooded upon this until
he determined on his bloody deed.
During Andrew Jackson's adminis
tration a maniac attempted to shoot
him, but was overcome and Incarcer
ated In an asylum for life.
Wedding King Lore.
It Is deemed unlucky when the wed
ding ring comes off ihe finger, whether
from forgetfulncss or accident. It l.-t
a common superstition that when the
wedding ring has worn so thin as to
break It Is a sure Indication that the
married life of one will shortly end
In death. It 13 suggested that this
solves the cause of ladles wearing
heavy wedding rings. Should a wife
be so unfortunate as to break her wed
ding ring It is belicved'that death will
soon rob her of her husband. London
Church Family Newspaper.
Dlscournirlntf to the Striker.
It was believed that Pittsburg's
creditable labor demonstration would
give Impetus to the steel strikers'
cause and strengthen them In their
great fight, but the developments In
the strike situation Tuesday were all
favorable to the masters. From near
ly every point in this district the re
ports were of a discouraging nature
to the strikers. Thirty-two new work
men, all said to be skilled, entered
the Star tin plate plant without moles
tation; 125 machinists returned to
work In the Pennsylvania ' and Conti
nental tube plants and 12 imported
men went to work at the $teel hoop
mill In Monessen. At Duquesne no
further efforts were made to get the
men out and the works were In full
operation. Painters' and Lindsay &
McCutcheon's mills are again running
with increased forces, while the con
ditions at McKeesport were without
material change.
Advocates n Hunk I'nnlc.
At a Labor Day picnic in Pittsburg
Monday, W. J. Brennan, counsel for
the Amalgamated Association, said:
"Of tho 6,107,000 depositors In the
banks, one-third of them, at least,
must bo union men and friends of
labor. When labor commences a run
on the banks, Morgan will know that
there Is something' to arbitrate. Six
billions of dollars cannot be paid with
$1,000,000,000 of gold; 12.500.000.000 of
deposits cannot be paid with $1,000,
000.000 of gold; $2,300,000,000 of loans
cannot be paid with $1,000,000,000 of
gold.. Demand your money. Have
every friend of labor demand his. De
prive the trust of its life money. Be
united to a man. and the trust will
cry for quarter within a week."

CARNEGIE PAYS OLD DEBT.
Gives Generous Interest on a Small I.onn
of Long Ago.
Who would not be a creditor of Mr.
Andrew Carnegie? An American firm
doing business in London recently ask
ed Its patrons to suggest Ideas for the
distribution of Mr. Andrew Carnegie's
wealth. .Mr. Henry D. Lennox of Glas
gow advised that the millionaire repay
a loan of 11 shillings made by his aunt
to aid the Carnegiea to emigrate from
Dunfermline In 1S47. Mr. Lennox com
puted that at compound , interest 1)
was due. Mr. Carnegie has investi
gated the matter and found that Mr.
Lennox wa3 quite- right in his claim.
The debt will not only be paid, but the
children of Mrs. Lennox will be en
dowed with a sum sufficient to keep
them In comfort ast long as they live.
Mr. Lennox said In hl3 letter: "When
the Carneglcs left Dunfermline they
were bo poor that the mother had to
borrow money to take them to the
United States. My aunt, though a
poor woman herself, helped them out
to the extent of 11 shillings, but the
promise to return the loan evidently
escaped the memory of the benefici
aries, because they never repaid the
sum borrowed. My aunt Is dead, but
Bhe left two daughters, one of whom
is the wife of a humble Joiner In Dun
fermline, while the other is a maiden
lady engaged In a small drapery busi
ness In Edinburgh. Don't you think
that if Mr. Carnegie knew this he
would be willing to do handsomely by
his mother's friends?" Mr. Carnegie
called in person on the children of hi3
benefactor, and thanked them for the
generosity of their mother. From
minus 11 shillings to plu3 70,000.000
is a financial transformation that
would have stagered the good genie of
Aladdin's lamp, but Mr. Carnegie
found It not overhard. London Ex
press. "Mission Style" Furniture.
The very newest thing In the way of
furniture Is called the "mission style,"
and was first suggested to tho inventor
by seeing an old Spanish mission chair
brought from California in 1894. Its
quaint outlines and Interesting con
struction indicate the possibility of a
Echeme of handmade furniture built
on the old early English architectural
lines. Its name, "mission furniture,"
is aptly applied.. There Is a restful
ness to the eye and hand In the dif
ferent pieces, and, though generally
straight in line, there 13 nothing angu
lar in effect. Persons accustomed to
lavishly carved framework might not
approve of its unconventional and sim
ple structure. Built of native ash,
6tained in browns, grays and greens, it
is guiltless of ornament, and no carv
ing, not even a molding, diverts at
tention from the severely straight
lines. There are solid-looking chairs
for the dining-room with rush and
leather bottoms, quaintly shaped writ
ing tables for the library, cabinets for
china, and all sorts of comfortable
rockers in which to indulge in an af
ternoon siesta.

Writes His Recommendation
for the Famous Catarrh
Remedy, Pe-ru-na.
The day was when men of promi
nence hesitated to give their testimon
ials to proprietary medicines for pub
lication. This remains true today of
most proprietary medicines. But Pe
runa has become so Justly famous, its
merlt3 are known to so many people of
high and low station that none hesi
tates to see his name in print recom
mending Peruna.
The following letters from pastors
who use Peruna speak for themselves:
Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Pres
byterian Church, of Greensboro, Ga.,
writes:
"My littlo boy had been suffering for
soma time with catarrh of the lower
bowels. Other remedies had failed, but
after taking two bottles of Peruna the
troublealmostentlrely disappeared. For
this special malady I consider it well
nigh a specific." Rev. E. G. Smith.
Rev. A. S. Vaughn, Eureka Springs,
Ark., says: "I had been prostrated by
congestive chills and was almost dead;
as soon as able to be about, I com
menced the use of Peruna. I took five
bottles; my strength returned rapidly
and I am now enjoying my usual
health." Rev. A. S. Vauhgn.
If you do not derive prompt and sat

WOMEN AS READERS.
r.tanons W hy They Do Not "Read Tp'
oit I'oll lion.
The criticism often has been made
that in railroad trains, waiting rooms,
dining rooms, street cars, everywhere,
men are absorbed In tho dally papers
while women either do not read them
or merely skim tho fashion and society
columns. Women, It U said, take no
Interest in current events, and hence
are not fitted to participate in public
affairs. A philosophical explanation
may be found in the old adage, 'They
have no need of keys who have no doors
to unlock." Men of all classes scan tho
dally paper to learn the litest develop
ment In politics with as much avidity
as the average school girl seizes upon
the next chapter in the serial story.
They observe tho political situation in
other countries, because, In a measure,
it is interwoven with their own. They
feel the keen interest because they
themselves can help in tho making of
this history. It is natural that men
should be deeply Interested in matters
which they themselves have power to
shape and control. Why should women
give that close attention to public af
fairs? Who cares for their opinion
after it Is formed? For how much
does It count In Influencing govern
ment? It is said that the next year
after the women of 'Colorado were en
franchised more' works on political eco
nomy were sold than In all Its previous
history. The women of that state are
today as careful readors of the newspa
pers as are the men. Give women
everywhere the same incentive and
they will become as well informed. It
id true that the masses of women do
not keep so closely In touch with cur
rent events as do the masses of men,
and yet thousands of this generation
have an intelligent understanding of
them where ten of the past had no
knowledge whatever. There is not one
of tho vital questions crowding upon us
so closely and rapidly at the present
time which affects women as deeply as
It does men. Susan B. Anthony in
Chicago Chronicle.
The Canning: of Fruit.
In the early work of excavation at
Pompeii, In the pantry of one of the
old and mostly destroyed palaces, an
earthen vessel was found, which, when
opened, showed a quantity of well pre
served figs. Examination proved that
they had been cooked and put Into the
vessel while hot. The cover had a
small aperture through which the
steam escaped and drove out the air
also. The aperture was then securely
closed with wax, and the fruit re
mained sweet for twenty centuries.
From this arose the modern practice of
canning fruits, vegetables and meats.

Hoarding up wealth is like building

Some people shed too many political
tears over oppressed humanity, and
shed too little truth in regard to the
process of oppression.

will divulge their secrets to each
