Prominent speakers will address the civic improvement meetings at the World's fair, in St. Louis this week. Circulation managers of metropolitan newspapers are holding a three days' session at the World's fair in St. Louis. William H. Stupy and son, just arrived at St. Louis traveled from Pittsburg, Pa., in an open boat to see the World's fair. Five thousand dollars has been given anonymously for worthy students at Columbia university to enable them to visit the World's fair. President Roosevelt gave a luncheon to the honorary Filipino commission to the St. Louis World's fair, which is now touring the country. World's fair officials believe that M. Lagrave, commissioner-general from France to the World's fair, has been removed or suspended. A silken balloon, believed to have traveled nearly 1,000 miles from the St. Louis fair, descended upon the steps of the Fifth street entrance to the Philadelphia bourse Monday morning. The Southwest Missouri Press association will be in session on the World's fair grounds, St. Louis, on Monday and Tuesday, June 20 and 21. Brief sessions will be held in the Missouri building on the days named. For the first time in the history of universal expositions, the leading universities of the United States are to officially recognize the Louisiana Purchase exposition as an educational institution by the establishment of field schools.

LOUIS, MO., SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1904. Chickens Will Come Home to Roost. When Julius Lehmann rests his weary head on the prison bed, will he ever think of the republican party? Will he think of the time when W. H. Fields had him almost beaten? When Julius Lehmann called for Wheeler to go out into his ward and save him, which he did? Does he now think of the way he treated Mr. G. H. Martin, secretary of the house of delegates; Chas. Gundlach, assistant secretary, and J. W. Wheeler, sergeant-at-arms of the house of delegates? He led the host that killed the republican party in St. Louis with the $47,000. We are indeed sorry for Emile Hartmann, a young man who ought to have kept better company than that of our friend and brother, and old college chum, Julius Lehmann. Mrs. Smith of 4216, St. Louis Avenue, Passes to the Land of Rest. Last Sunday Mrs. Smith died, after an illness of four weeks. Surrounded by many relatives, she passed into the land of rest. She was a member of Antioch church for 24 years, and a Christian for 40 years. She was a most faithful and zealous Christian. Her neighbors loved and respected her. She leaves four daughters, one son, one sister, one son-in-law and 15 grandchildren to mourn her loss. She was a member of Mt. Carmel Temple of the Brothers and Sisters of Purity. She was buried from Antioch Baptist church. We have known Sister Smith for a number of years, and we never met a more conscientiously good mother Christian in all our walk of life. It is as the Bible says: As one star differs from another in glory, so shall Sister Smith's crown differ from others in glory. As she approached the Jordan, she seemed to realize that she was passing from this world to a more congenial clime, where out God dwells. May she rest in peace. True Reformers' Boat Excursion. The boat bearing excursionists to Montesano last Monday was well filled. They spent a pleasant time. Many summer girls slowly strolled away from the levee as the boat pulled out. Mothers doubtless thought they were at school, but many of the girls sadly turned away as the steamer left the shore. However, the Orphans' Home excursion, next Monday, will very likely carry many of them. The True Reformers' excursion was a success in general. St. Paul's Barbecue. Quite a large number of those who attended the excursion of True Reformers arrived home, only to start to Hoehn's grove to attend the barbecue given by St. Paul's chapel. The band played "Home.Sweet Home," about one o'clock, but the great number arriving steadily openly showed that closing the evening's pleasure at 11 would only result in loss in many ways. Everyone enjoyed himself at the barbecue, and St. Paul's name, for being a successful entertainer has not been marred in the least. Stop that cough. Pickett's Cough Syrup. THE CATHEDRAL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KATHALA Lyrics of Love Rev. Charles R. Dinkins, the author of "Lyrics of Love," is undoubtedly an excellent writer. His sacred poems are most enthusiastic. They display the pureheartedness which eminates from a religious soul. His secular poems, in which he depicts the Negro of the southern states, and also gives the opinion of the persecuted race upon their condition in general, arouses in one a kindly feeling toward Rev. Dinkins. The following stanza is but an introduction to many others of its kind: "What's the boasted creed of color? 'Tis no standard for a race; Justice's mansion has no cellar, Justice's mansion has no cellar, All must fill an even place. We must share the rights of others, Dwelling here as kin with kin; We are black, but we are brothers; We are black, but we are men." Notice to Subscribers.

WEST VIRGINIA WORLD'S FAIR. Miss Victoria S. Clay and Mr. James L. Haley were quietly married last Wednesday evening at 5:30 o'clock, Dr. Roberts, of St. Paul's chapel, performing the ceremony. The wedding had been planned for Wednesday, June 22, and a few friends, together with the relatives, had been invited to witness the ceremony at the church, but at the last moment the young couple decided they could wait no longer, and concluded to marry immediately. Miss Clay was a prominent teacher of Wheatey school, and a well-know elocutionist of marked ability. Mr. Haley is one of the oldest and most efficient clerks in the St. Louis post office. Mr. and Mrs. Haley are temporarily stopping at the Douglass hotel, where they will be pleased to receive their many friends. Samuel Parker, Revene, N. Y.; E. Pondexter, Detroit; E. F.

BE NOT DECEIVED TO THE COLORED PEOPLE OF AMERICA. King of all Hair Tonics, "OZONO" BEFORE. AFTER. Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are frauds pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair Tonics.

We have advertised for several years under this guarantee, and we are glad to say that every one who has used Ozone has been satisfied in every respect. 20,000 people are to-day using our preparations, and every purchaser recommends Ozone as the King of all Hair Tonics.

Nothing but Ozone is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application.

TWO BOODLERS MUST GO TO PEN Sentences of Julius Lehman and Emil Hartmann Affirmed. THE SNYDER CASE REVERSED The First Out of Nineteen Boodle Convictions at St. Louis to Be Affirmed By the Missouri Supreme Court. Jefferson City, Mo., June 15.—The supreme court has affirmed the boodle cases of former Councilmen Emil Hartmann and Julius Lehmann, of St. Louis, and reversed and remanded the case of Robert M. Snyder, of Kansas City, convicted of boodling in St. Louis. The court then formally sentenced Lehmann and Hartmann to serve seven and six years respectively in the penitentiary for bribery in St. Louis. The opinion, written by Judge Fox, in which the other judges, Burgess and Gantt concurred, affirmed the sentences passed by the St. Louis criminal court, and the convicted men must now serve time in the penitentiary. The Lehmann case was before the court some time ago and was reversed and remanded because of errors of the trial court. This time no error was found. Robert M. Snyder, of Kansas City, a promoter, convicted of bribery in St. Louis, and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary, will have another trial. The supreme court, in an opinion written by Judge Gantt, in which the other judges concurred, reversed and remanded the case on a question of residence. Snyder pleaded the statute of limitations of three years as a resident of Missouri. He claimed Kansas City as his home, while the state attempted to prove that he lived in New York and could not plead such a statute. The court, however, sustained the defendant on that point and granted him another trial. Robert M. Snyder, capitalist and franchise promoter of New York and Kansas City, was convicted of bribery in concession with the passage of the Central Traction bill, and sentenced to the penitentiary October 5, 1903, for a term of five years. The Central Traction steal, which was exposed in 1898, involved the distribution of $250,000 among the members of the municipal assembly. In the house of delegates 25 out of 28 members received bribes ranging from $1,060 to $3,000 apiece. Snyder "steered" the legislation, which turned over to the Central Traction Co. 80 miles of St. Louis streets. Subsequently Snyder disposed of the franchise to the Central Traction Co. for $1,250,000. The specific charge upon which Snyder was tried was that he agreed to pay to Councilman Frederick Uthoff $50,000 for his vote and influence on the bill. At the time of the passage of the bill Snyder was president of a bank in Kansas City, where he lived in a palatial home. Soon after the passage of the Central Traction bill he went to New York and took up quarters at the Waldorf-Astoria. It was this change of residence which brought about his indictment. The statute of limitations, while precluding the prosecution of bribery within three years from the time the offense is committed, does not apply to non-residents. Such Snyder was considered. Witnesses were brought from New York to prove that Snyder had a regular office in the metropolis and considered New York his home. The principal point on which the Snyder case was remanded was on erroneous instructions of the trial court regarding the finding on the residence of the defendant. The supreme court holds that the jury should have been instructed to determine the residence from the evidence, instead of being limited by the court. SHE PLEADED NOT GUILTY Nan Patterson Plenaded Not Guilty to the Charge of Murdering "Caesar" Young. New York, June 15.—Mrs. Nan Patterson, the former actress, against whom an indictment for murder in the first degree in connection with the death of Bookmaker "Caesar" Young was returned by the grand jury, entered a plea of not guilty before Judge Newburger in the court of general sessions. The plea was made with leave to withdraw by next Friday, and in the meantime her counsel will serve notice on the district attorney that he will move to inspect the minutes of the grand jury.

It is not unlikely that Insurance Superintendent R. G. Yates will be called upon to investigate a number of so-called wildcat insurance companies which are said to be operating extensively on The Pike at the World's fair. For some weeks numerous inquiries have been made at the offices of various insurance companies in St. Louis for information about alleged fire risk concerns. Upon investigation it is said, these concerns were found to have no standing in insurance circles. That a large number of these companies are operating on The Pike is evident from the lack of demand for legitimate insurance. It was anticipated before the opening of the fair that the demand for insurance would be greater than could be supplied. That demand has never materialized. The reason given was that the rate demanded by the responsible companies was too high. Then, too, an objectionable feature seemed to be the diminishing clause. The wild-cat companies, or their underground brokers, as they are popularly called, have been successful in their operations, it is said, because in their contracts both these objectionable features have been eliminated. The problem presented is by no means an easy one to solve. The underground brokers, if their operations are conducted through the mails, are safe from the insurance commissioner. The only remedy appears to be a prosecution for fraudulent use of the mails. If, however, the broker personally obtains the policies, he is within the jurisdiction of the commissioner under the law prohibiting the selling of insurance without a license. The investigation is hampered by reason of the fact that the concessionaires in many instances refuse to reveal in what companies they are carrying insurance. The result in the event of a disastrous conflagration is obvious. The wild-cat companies would resort to the simple expedient of disappearing. So long as no fire breaks out the concessionaire is happy in his apparent security, and the underground broker reaps the profits. A FATAL MISTAKE. Grocer Filled Jug With Gasoline Instead of Vinegar, With Disastrous Results. A mistake of a grocer in filling a customer's jug with gasoline when vinegar was asked for resulted in an explosion at the home of Anton Schoen, in Kansas City, which caused the death of one person and injury to three others. The dead: Mrs. Barbara Schoen, aged 62 years. Injured; Helen Schoen, aged four years, burned on right side; condition serious. Anton Schoen and Charles Schoen, hands severely burned. Mrs. Schoen bought what she believed to be a jug of vinegar at a grocery store, and in preparing dinner she poured a portion of the jug's contents into a hot skillet. Instantly there was an explosion, which enveloped her in flames and set fire to the house. Rosa Schoen, who was in the room, was badly burned before her brothers rescued her. Anton and Charles Schoen were burned in their efforts to save Mrs. Schoen and the little girl. Mrs. Schoen died at the hospital several hours after the accident. The grocer of whom Mrs. Schoen said she purchased the gasoline denied that she had been in his store. The St. Joseph police commissioners have ordered all saloons closed on Sundays. This does not mean that the front doors are to be locked and the rear doors left open, but the places must be closed tight as jugs. An unsuccessful attempt was made several years ago to close saloons on Sunday in St. Louis. State Guard Encampment.

Despite Cool Nights, Weather Has Been Generally Favorable—Wheat Doing Well. Columbia, Mo., June 14.—The United States department of agriculture, climate and crop bulletin of the weather bureau, Missouri section, for the week ending June 13, 1904, says: The weather was very favorable during the past week. The temperature was below the normal, which was due to the low night temperature, but the days were warm and pleasant, with an abundance of sunshine. Practically no rainfall during the week within the state. Crops of all kinds improved, and farm work progressed most favorably, except in the overflowed bottoms, where the land continues too wet. Wheat continues to improve; some reports state that it is heading short, but, on the whole, the crop is filling and heading well. Some rust is noted in the counties along the Missouri river, and the Hessian fly has appeared in scattered localities in Saline, Osage and Gasconade counties, but the damage so far is slight. The crop is well advanced in the southeast section, and harvest will become general in the extreme southeast by the 15th. The oat crop is doing fairly well, but is heading short. Corn planting made rapid progress, and is practically completed, with the exception of the wet bottom lands, recently overflowed. Much replanting was done during the week. Cultivation progressed finely in all sections; in the southern sections the fields have been worked over two to four times. While the days were warm, the nights were cool for rapid growth, especially in the northern half of the state; a good stand has been secured in most places. The cotton stand is good; the fields are clean and have been worked over twice, but the growth of the plant has been retarded somewhat, due to cool nights. Pastures continue in excellent condition. Clover is very good; some complaint of old clover being weedy, but as a whole the crop promises well and full. Some clover has already been cut in the extreme southeast portion of the state, and cutting will become quite general over the southern half of the state during the week. Gardens are in good condition; new potatoes are now on the market; melons improved slightly. Apples continue to drop in all sections, and the outlook for that crop has not improved. The peach crop bids fair, and it is evident that the prospects for this crop are better than at first reported; in many counties over half crop is promised, and in some nearly a full crop. All other fruits are doing well; berries of all kinds are excellent, and promise an abundance. ROBBERS PUT TO FLIGHT. Two Were Captured by a Citizens' Posse, While the Third Was Wounded. Two burglars were dangerously wounded in a fight with Postmaster John McVey and a posse at the High Prairie post office, eight miles east of Marshfield. A third robber escaped, and it is believed he was slightly wounded during the fight. The wounded men give their names as John Requa and Barry Reeves Frenchman. The latter says his home is in Birmingham, Ala., while the former asserts that he came from Little Rock, Ark Requa is 25 years old and Frenchman is 28. The men refuse to give the names of their accomplice. The post office at Hartville was robbed on the 10th by a gang of men. This was followed on the 11th by the robbing of a store at Owen. Postmaster McVey had been notified that he would probably be the next victim and was in the vicinity of the post office building with a posse of neighbors, all armed with shotguns, waiting for the possible arrival of the burglar. It was a trifle after three o'clock in the morning, and the little crowd of citizens was almost ready to give up the watch for that night, when three men rode into the village. The men went direct to the post office building, dismounted and prepared to force the outer door of the building. The crowd of citizens crept nearer and surrounded the building. Postmaster McVey called out for the burglar to surrender. The answer was a volley from the pistols of the burglar. The citizens fired in return, and a fight began. It was of short duration, however, for Requa and Frenchman soon fell, their bodies filled with shot. Under cover of the darkness the other man made his escape. New Thayer Fruit Company. A fruit company with a capital of $150,000 has been organized at Thayer. It will buy 1,000 acres of land in which to plant peach trees (and its money). Alleged Counterfeiter Arrested.

St. Louis.—Early visitors to the Louisiana Purchase exposition have found at St. Louis an exposition so nearly complete that they have in no way missed the few minor details that were unfinished on the opening day, and which have since been completed. In fact in an exposition of such proportions as this it would be impossible to discover a thousand little details that might lack completion. Weather conditions were against the exposition management for a few days preceding the opening. Now everything is favorable, and the great fair is entirely complete, a completeness, we must repeat, that is so enormous that it is all but impossible to comprehend what it has meant to the builders. The last vestige of scaffolding that for a few days surrounded some of the less important buildings has been torn away; the last wagon load of refuse hauled from the grounds; every flower and shrub the landscape gardeners included in their scheme of decoration growing under the benign influence of a spring sun, and the exposition stands forth a completed giant, beautiful in conception, wonderful in execution, stupendous in size, by far the masterpiece of the world's expositions. Stupendous size does not half express it. This world's fair has many surprises for the visitor, but its immense size is the greatest astonister of all. Amazement at the extent of the fair is heard from every visitor. It has been interesting to watch the visitors these first days of the fair. Interesting to see what would appeal to then strongest, but after one has studied the mass of humanity in their quest for the wonders it is hard to select any one feature that could be designated as a general favorite with all. Of course all visitors are enthusiastic over the general picture, the grand ensemble, which has O THE FONTAINE. FESTIVAL HALL AND THE CASCADES. been created, and for the first hour or more of their stay inside the grounds but few get further than the point from which they catch their first view of this grand picture. "It almost takes my breath away," exclaimed one woman near whom I was standing as she caught her first glimpse of the beauty of the cascades and the magnificence of the grand exposition palaces. Such is the general verdict. Fe-beauty, for magnificence, for extent, St. Louis has beat the world. plant. Never before has there been ev power developed as various prime move Machinery. In a l standing west of the filled, filled with the l ductions of skilled b steam is generated horse-power to the Machinery built to this about 10,000 celed by electric car There is another feature, or rather collection of features, which seemingly appeals to every visitor, and with good reason, and that is "The Pike." The fair management do not wish to appeal to the public with a side-show. They built an exposition which should stand forth to the world on its merits as an educator, as a monument to the world's progress, but realizing that an amusement feature was necessary they set to work to provide the biggest and best in this line that has ever been known. That they have succeeded in this is evident to every visitor who travels "The Pike." Nor is this great amusement feature lacking in educational interest. Here one may study the architectural facies of the world; here he may study the nations of the world, their methods of life, their surroundings, their customs. He sees realistic pictures of the Esquimaux in their snow and ice bound homes in one minute, and the next is transported to the jungles of tropical Africa. "The Pike" is not an aggregation of fat women and the skeleton men, in no sense a circus side-show, but a realistic picture of the world upon which five millions of dollars has been sport. Six thousand performers from foreign countries, and busy artisans from every remote corner of earth are engaged to reproduce the life of 25 different peoples. Fifteen hundred animals are required to lend reality to the varied scenes. Two shows in the list of 40 represent an outlay of $1,400,000. Twenty of them cost not less than $100,000 apiece, and hardly an attraction less than $50,000. Some idea of what there is to be seen of Pike features may be had from a list of the educational amusement features which this section of the fair contains: Alaska and Esquimaux Village; Ancient Rome and Hawaiian Volcano; Cliff Abbey; Bohemia; Crystal Palace; Cliff Dwellers; Chinese Village; Colorado Gold Mine; Creation; Coal Breaker; Cairo; Constantinople; Fire-Fighting Exhibition; Glass Weaving, Splinning; German Tyrolean Alps; Golden Charlot; Grant's Log Cabin; Galveston Flood; Haunted Castle; Hereafter; Hunting in the Ozarks; Infant Incubators; Indian Congress and Wild West; Irish Village; Japanese Village; Jerusalem; Jim Key (Educated Horse); Lincoln's Log Cabin; Moorish Palace; Model Playground; Miniature Railway; Magic Whirlpool; Morocco; Mysterious Asia; Naval Exhibition; Old Plantation; Old St. Louis, Mo.; Old Cahokia Court House; Old Virginia Homestead; Observation Wheel; Palais Du Costume; Pottery; Weller; Paris and France; Scenic Railway; South African Boer Exhibits; Streets of Seville; Statisticum; Submarine Diving; New York to the North Pole; Trained and Wild Animals; Under and Over the Sea; Upper Mississippi Views; Water Chutes; Wireless Telegraphy. What runs in all; what supplies the power that makes the countless wheels go round? The majority of visitors are intensely interested in the mechanical motive force of this greatest of expositions, and well they may be. One of the most striking features is the power I plant. Never before at an exposition has there been even half as much power developed as supplied from the various prime movers in the Palace of Machinery. In a large boiler house standing west of the Machinery building, filled with the latest and best productions of skilled boiler manufactures, steam is generated to supply 30,000 horse-power to the various engines in the Machinery building. In addition to this about 10,000 horse-power is received by electric cable from power stations in the city of St. Louis. But the greatest interest is in the engines themselves rather than in the large capacity of the exhibit, for among them is a giant turbine or rotary engine developing 8,000 horse-power, besides others of a similar type of smaller capacity. This is the first display of turbine engines at a large exposition, as its development is a very recent achievement of mechanical engineering and invention. At the Chicago Exposition the largest gas engine developed only ten horse-power; the visitor to St. Louis may see a gas engine with the capacity of 300 times larger than the Chicago engine. The 3,000 horse-power gas engine is the largest engine of its character ever built. Many other gas engines of various types developing from 1,000 to 1,750 horse-power complete this feature of the exhibit, and there are many of the more familiar reciprocating engines of the latest pattern and highest efficiency. Of the total number of prime movers in the Palace of Machinery about one-half are comprised in what is known as the Exposition power plant, the other half being exhibitors' engines. Nearly all these engines are connected with electrical generators and the power is --- transmitted by cable throughout the grounds to the electric railways, the machinery in operation in the exposition buildings, the pumps supplying water to the cascades and fountains, the refrigerating plant and for other purposes. The total horse-power used at Chicago did not exceed 12,000 and at the Pan-American not over 8,000, in comparison with the 40,000 to 50,000 here. Electricity had only five and one-half acres at Chicago, while at St. Louis nine acres are given to the same department, besides a large display of electrical generators in the Palace of Machinery. No one should be deterred from visiting the world's fair because of the fear that living expenses in St. Louis are too high. If anyone has this notion it is high time that it be dispelled. There is absolutely no doubt of the fact that one can find excellent living accommodations in St. Louis now at rates not exceeding the charges this same month in New York, Chicago or any other great American city. No one need pay more than one dollar a day for a good room. That is an average rate, though many accommodations of excellent character may be had for less. There are many unrented rooms at five dollars a week, advertised every day in the newspapers. Hundreds of restaurants serve meals or give short order service at the same rates that prevailed before the exposition opened. It is suggested that the stranger in St. Louis, who wishes to find reasonable boarding-house rates, make inquiry at a grocery store or meat market in the vicinity where he desires to stop. The grocers and butchers know nearly all the boarding houses in their neighborhoods, and they are quite willing to oblige the stranger by directing him to a place to suit his purse and his tastes. The "want" columns of the daily newspapers also contain columns of small advertisements for boarders or lodgers. WOMEN "BUCK THE TIGER." How the Dealers in a Montana Gambling Resort Get the Working Girl's Wages. In Butte, Mont, there is a gambling house where the patronage of ladies is the special feature of the management, and where all kinds of women play the good old game of faro, perfectly at home and without fear of interruption. The entrance is from an alley near Broadway, and the house is luxuriously furnished. Carpets are laid on the floors, softened lights shine over the players, courteous attendants deal and shuffle the cards and pay bets or take winnings without the slightest suggestion of the incongruity of the situation, says the Denver Republican. Here many fashionably gowned women of Butte's elite come in parties or in pairs with escorts, to quietly venture silver or goldpieces coined from copper by their husbands, who busy themselves in Butte's continuous political war. Women of the business world keep track of the game, and both dealer and player usually maintain a rigid silence. Money is passed out for chips with the simple word, "five" or "ten," and conversation is economized to a minimum. And there are schemes to invigile the unsuspecting that only the initiated understand. Many women of the middle classes are among the most regular patrons of the place. A waiter girl was recently observed playing her week's wages with phenomenal luck. With $15 she had won $60 and had cashed in her chips with charming coolness prepared to go home "winner." The dealer paid her without comment. He counted out the money—two twenty-dollar bills, one ten, one five, four dollars in silver, two half-dollars. She picked up the money, put the bills in her purse and laid a half-dollar on the ace. It lost. She laid down a dollar. It won. Another few moments and she had lost the silver. Reluctantly she drew out a five-dollar note and began to play again. In a few deals she was playing heavily again. In half an hour she was broke. It was a simple trick which has won the bank many millions of dollars after the player cashed in—the manner of payment. One is reluctant to break a bill, but silver is convenient to lay down on a car*, and most gamblers will do it. Before they know it they are again drawn in to the game. They sometimes win, it is true, for the games are on the square, but one cannot win always, and the chance on a second round is in favor of the "tiger." Perils of "Self-Doctoring." Large numbers of people in prosperous circumstances die as sexagevarians from maladies which are evidences of degeneration and of premature senility, while many who pass this period go on to enter upon an eighth or ninth decade of life. The former class comprise those who have lived without restraint of their appetites and who have sought to alley some of the consequences by self-medication, while the latter class comprise those who have lived reasonably, and who, if annoyed by imperfect digestion, have sought relief by abandoning the errors from which it sprang—London Lancet. She was a demure little woman with a baby. As the car was crowded she did not put the little one, who was old enough to sit up, on the seat beside her. She carried it on her lap, and made room for a fierce-looking, big man with a newspaper. The child kicked its tiny feet in delight at the strange things it saw while riding along, and its shoes rubbed against the big man's trousers. "Perkaps, madam," he exclaimed, "you imagine that this conveyance is your private carriage?" "Oh, no I don't," was the prompt reply. "If it were you wouldn't be riding in it."—Tit-Bits. "It's an Ill Wind—" William—Didn't that burglar's chloroform make you ill? Richard—Well, I didn't like it; but it cured my wife's neuralgia.—Detroit Free Press.
