Ye cods I Is there no manhood, no sense of honor, left in the republican party? Read the accounts of how the Philadelphia office holders' ratification meeting cheered that vile wretch, Tay lor, of Kentucky, whom a jury of his fellow citizens bad charged with murder 1 No one who has followed the Kentucky contest as reported in the papers of that state can for a moment doubt that Tay lor is more Kuilty of the blood of gov ernor Goebel than is tbe poor, ignorant fanatic who fired the fatal shot. A po litical, social or fraternal association of men that will harbor a cowardly mur derer who dare not show his Cain- marked face in bis own state, and even applaud him, should be buried in obliv ion's darkest pit so deeply that no future historian would dive amongBt its moul dering b ones for even an epitaphic whif of its unholy stench." Edd. A Convincing Aniirer, There are many people who do not care for libraries who pride themselves on having "only the books they read" about them, but the answer made by . a distinguished scholar to one of those persons very well illustrates how valu able is this Idea as to what a library should be. The scholar was connected with an Institution of learning which had been greatly helped by a liberal man of the neighborhood, but the liber al man was not much of a sympathizer with the idea of Increasing the library. When appealed to In tbe matter, he re plied: "More books? Dear me, it seems to me you've got more than you can read now. Have you read all you have al ready?' "No," returned the scholar, "and I never expect to read them all." "Then why do you want more?" "Let me ask you," said the scholar, "did you ever read the dictionary through?" "Certainly not," was the reply. "Well, sir," Bald the scholar, "a libra ry Is my dictionary." The answer Was convincing, and the merchant provided the professor with the funds he wished for. Pittsburg Dispatch. It Can't Be Done Now. "An Increase of salary!" exclaimed tbe pompous manager of a small omni bus company to a clerk who had just made that request. "I am afraid, sir, that you are too extravagant!" lie toyed with his heavy watch chain and looked severely at the young man, who returned his stare boldly. It was the set phrase on such occasions, and the applicant had heard It all before. He meant to have that rise or go somewhere else. "Excuse me, sir," he replied respect fully, "I haven't any chance to be ex travagant on what I earn." "Young man," continued the pom pous gentleman, "I have risen from the monkey board. How? By being careful. When I was young I made money by saving 'bus fares." "Ah, that was In the old days," said the young man, with a knowing wink. "But with the bell punches and the present system of Inspection, you would And you couldn't save sixpence without being collared, however care ful you were." The manager nearly fainted, nnd the young man had to seek other employ mentLondon Standard. Quickaanda Hidden Tinder Clay. Curious but dangerous freaks of na ture frequently found in the deserts of Arizona are called sumlderos by the Mexicans and Indians. They are mask ed pitfalls of quicksand that occur In the dry plains and are covered with a treacherous crust of clay that has been ipread over them in fine particles by the wind and baked dry by the sun. The peculiar properties of the soil retain all the moisture drained Into them after the infrequent rains and al low It to be filtered to unknown depths, 10 that a man or a horse or a cow or a Bheep that once steps upon that de ceptive crust Instantly sinks out of light beyond hope of rescue. The sumlderos are on a level with the sur face of the desert. There Is no dan ger signal to mark them, and their lurface cannot be distinguished by the srdlnary eye from the hard clay that surrounds them.- They occur most fre quently in the alkali covered flats and are often 15 or 20 feet in diameter. Sometimes they are only little pockets or wells that a man can leap across, but the longest pole has never found their bottom. A stone thrown through the crust sinks to unknown depths, and no man who ever fell Into one of them was rescued. They account for the mysterious disappearance of many men and cattle. Chicago Hecord. Getting Rope Sense. A peculiarity about roping horses or steers with a lasso Is that after getting a hard fall a few times they quickly get "rope sense." I have often seen them, in a corral, stand stock 6till when the rope falls across their backs even when, as a matter of fact, they are not caught. If any reader has ever encountered a clothesline while run ning at full speed In the dark, the line stretched at about the level of the throat, he will notice that he doesn't run across that lawn any more after nightfall, lie's got "ropo sense," In fact Wide World Magazine. First aid Taylor Streets, PORTLAND. OREGON Why She Enjoyed It. On Sunday, as a certain Scottish min ister was returning homewards, he was accosted by an old woman, who said: "Oh, sir, well do I like the day when you preach." Tbe minister was aware that he was not very popular and answered: "My good woman, I am glad to hear It There are too few like you. And why do you like it when I preach?" "Oh, sir," she replied, "when you preach I always get a good seat!" Scottish Nights. Queer Lot. Stranger I have heard that you have a good many queer people In this town. CItlxcD As odd a lot as you'd find In a year's travel. They are a queer set, the whole of 'em, outside my family. And my wife is almost as bad as the others. But then, you know, she wasn't originally of my family.

Submarine volcanoes are constantir belnj discovered, and are at times, owing to their sudden appearance, a great danger to navigation. Four Courtship Sundays. The four Sundays of November are observed as fete days in Holland. They are known by the curious names Re view, Decision, Purchase and Posses sion and all refer to matrimonial af fairs, November in Holland being the month par excellence devoted to court ship and marriage, probably because the agricultural occupations of the year are over and possibly because the lords of creation from quite remote antiquity have recognized the pleas antness of having wives to cook and cater for them during the long winter. On Review Sunday everybody goes to church, and after service there is a church parade In every village, when the youths and maidens gaze upon each other, but forbear to speak. .. On Decision Sunday each bachelor who is seeking a wife approaches the maiden of his choice with a ceremoni ous bow and from her manner of re sponding judges whether his advances are acceptable. Purchase Sunday the consent of the parents Is sought if the suit has prospered during the week. Not until Possession Sunday, howev er, do the twain appear before the world as actual or prospective brides and grooiaa. Denver News. SHERIFF'S SALE.
