. j? WifitlilM ttttmmmiraft-rtrttMmfmtm A COLORADO CONUNDRUM. Ihe legl.lature a,By Have to Ioctde tlio Pronunciation ir "Sallda." There is probably no town in the state ffhMe na .no is pronouncea m as many Afferent ways as . Sallda .It is usually prononnceu 10.10 njr.mutw, mongn jtoOran.1 porters have a habit of ab- treriating iiffl iwo, suouung as 1110 train goes piunKiiijr inw mo Biaiion, 'Slj-dal" Once in awhilo there is a braieman so Indifferent to Salida etiquette that he mil open tho car door nnd in a voice that sounds indistinct nbovo tho roar of the wheels yell, "Slide, 20 minutes for dinner!" and bang the door shut again, virile the mystified passengers begin to "slide," expecting tho roof of tho car to be bcraped off. Stransprs usually uso the straight pro nunciation, "Sa-li-da,"but the ultra aris tocratic try to get a Midway plaisanco twist to it and pronounce it "Sa-lee-da.'' Somoof tho Salidaites rather like this wid go ono better by giving it a Feiria wheel turn nnd calling it "Sa-lea-day." The nppor crust, however, look proud, and assuming indifference tiptoe, blue ttockinglike, up to tho mnrkat "Saw-lee-da." Onco in awhile one is found who calls it "O-lee-dah." There aro so many different ways of pronouncing tho name thnt it causes mnch trouble to trainmen and often leads to serious disputes. To such a condition has it come that when a Eio Grande brakemnn gets his pay and struts around with his pocket full of money 110 is likely to say, "Saw lee-da," and when ho gets his board bill paid nnd his name mopped off tho slate up town nnd fands himself in a dilapidated rondition financially he flatly says, "Say- lye-day," without any compunctions of conscience. All this makes tho people of the 'own feel sore, for they have tho brakeman's money in their pockets, and "Say-lye-day" sounds very commonplace to them then. The name Salida has caused more an noyance than the pronunciation of Ar kansas did until the matter was settled by legislation. Colonel Hooper of the Rio Grande has been requested to take the Salida matter up and have it settled. It is likely that he will name a commit tee to whom will be intrusted the mat ter. Dr. O'Connor, the chief surgeon, will probably bo on the committee; also Hotel Manager Thayer and Chief Engi neer Rogers. It is said that the doctor favors the "Saw-lee-dah" twist, but Mr. Rogers thinks the best way is to strike a tangent and adopt tho pronunciation fdopted by tho porters, "Sly-da." It is likely that a compromise can be reached and the matter settled for all time to come. Denver Times. Will Not Always Saw Wood. Freeport has two young ladies who can saw wood, though it is doubtful whether they "said nothing" during the act. A smart young farmer offered to fnrnish a church in tho city all the wood that any two ladies of the congregation would reduce to proper proportions with saw and buck. Tho challenge was ac cepted by two of tho young ladies, and they sawed load after load until the farmer laid down his hand with the ex cnso that the weather was too cold for hauling. Tho local statement that both yonng ladies have already received of fers of marriage from eligible suitors may well be believed, but if tho suitors think to marry wood sawers they will find themselves mistaken. Tho girl who could beat tho farmer at that game can certainly mako a husband do the sawing in future. Milwaukee Journal. Delaware Made IHgger. The official report of Wayne Mac Veagh, R. E. Monnghan nnd William H. Miller, commissioners appointed to establish the boundary between Dela ware and Pennsylvania, has boen ap proved and filed with tho secretary of state. Tho sou 1st corner of Pennsyl vania, making a tract of U50 acres, has been given to Delaware, so that tho Bouthorn boundary might run in a straight lino and cut off tho irregular little corner as it formerly stood. This is tho first survey sinco 1701, and it cost tho state a large umount of money. The survey was made by W. C. ITodg kms, assistant United States coast and geodetic surveyor, and bis calculations on the subject fill somo dozens of books. Wilmington (Del.) News. A Prince 1'ut to Death. A great sensation was caused in tho Caucasus u few weeks ago by the execu tion of Prince Rikodzo in the market place of Tiflis. The princo entered the Btation at Tiflis recently In an intoxi cated condition and picked a quarrel with a police officer on duty in the building. In the course of tho quarrel tho pi ince drown dagger from his pock et nnd stabbed tho officer so severely that ho died a few hours later. A trial was held, nnd Prince Rikodze was con demned to death. An appeal was made to tho czar to pardon the aristocratic laurdeier, but ho declined to interfere. He belonged to a wealthy and influen tial family. St. Petersburg Correspond ent. The Governor'! Name. Tho governor was shown the median m of the typesetting machines and in vited to take a seat and set up his name. t is necessary in operating the keys to loach lightly and quickly. In the first feort the governor's touch was not deli eate eSuugh, and as the type poured flown the governor thought the machine waa coming to pieces. "What's the mat r with that blamed thing? inquired jty governor. Ho was told not to press t u1 8 lon8 and ue proceeded tofin n hU name, and here is what he set, Hnnted from the identical lino be made wn the machine; fJJJJ. . 8SS3. HHHHOO GGGG. WTeatoo News. I' 'lu Advanctoeot ot numen. "What shall wo do with our girls?" isn't such a hard question to answer as it used to bo, nnd now I think of it, "What shall wo do with our boys?" is growing to bo something of a problem. Girls aro branching out in a manner cal culated to striko terror to your heart, ! when you consider tho fact that they are , expected to inhabit that realm popularly referred to ns "sphero" and look up to a mun, uepenuing upon Him, believing in him, deferring to him, and the problem nbout the b fa hoW to make thorn to match her, Tho women have been made to match tho men for a lonffttmto , fact ver Blnco tbo -, .",,, Ma. tress Evo. It really looks ns though circumstances were hedging nbout us that rather com pel us to fashion tho boys after a better pattern in order to mako them a match for tho girls. It's rather a good sort of a scheme, and it leads up to a host of bet ter things, such as we havo been led to believe belonged to tho millennium. Tho advancement of women has regu larly been tho cause of sowing the seeds of socialism among the entire sex. They are gradually learning to demand more things justice, among others and to learn that they only obtain by demand ing. Haryot Holt Cahoon. Read at the Thirteen Club. Mr. Henry Furniss, tho caricaturist of Punch, has been compiling a list of the unlucky dates connected with Glad 1 tone's homo rule bill. Hero they are as he read them at the recent annual din ner of the Thirteen club: Home rule bill introduced on the 18th of February. Read first timo on a Friday. Passed third reading on a Friday.

"Totako the cake" had its origin in tho cake walk in which colored couples participate, the prize being a cake, During the Mexican war tho United States put 00,100 men in tho field, of whom 7,780 died of wounds or diseaso. A towel mado from flax and claimed to be half a century old is in tho posses sion of Mrs. John Worth of High Point, N.C. The highest court in Missouri has de cided that debts contracted in option deals are gambling debts and not col lectible at law. Gutta percha was first introduced into Europe from Malaga in 1852.

With tho exception of Belgium,! whoso debt has been incurred for Internal im provements, overy European national debt is in great part a war debt. Tho cost of the world's wars since tint Crimean war has been $13,205,000,000, ot enough to give a $10 gold piece to ever man, woman unu child on the globo. Tho very earliest carvings now extant aro tboso found in tho osvia of.Le Mous tier and La Madela'ne, -preserved' at Paris, bearing representations of animals as seen by the prehistoric nen.
