A Sad Experience'
It was during the progress of the pic
nic'in Jurnigan's grove by the Method
ist Sabbath school in Hawville, Okala
homa. Alkali Ike, who sings bass in the
choir, " and Miss Lillie Cusack, the
soprano, had wandered a short distance
from the scene of the festivities and
seated themselves on a moss-covered
log, which lay at the foot of a tall tree.
The gallant's arm had strayed around
the maiden's slender waist and lingered
there, apparently to the profound satis
faction of both persons, and Isaac had
asked, for the sixteenth time :
"Does oo love me Lillie?"
"Course I do!" replied the maid,
snugging closer to him. "I love gooder
than any Oh, mercy, I do believe there
is some kind of horrid animal up in this
tree!"
"We'll soon see," remarked Ike,
grimly, at the same time drawing his
revolver and firing a few shots into the
ifoilage above. "I'll stir the varmint up
little, anyhow."
At 'that instant a reproachful voice
was heard proceeding from the canopy
of leaves above their heads :
"How long, oh Lord? How long?"
"What the dev . That is, who are
you?" demanded Ike.
"All that remains of Hercules P,
mith,', was the reply. "I was swim-
in g before the picknickers came, and a
cow ate up the most of my clothes be
fore I noticed her. I chased her through
blackberry tangle and then a stray
og, that appeared to be mad, chased
me back again. Then the coming of the
Sabbath school drove me rip this tree,
and here I have been ever Bince, with
a hornets' nest on one bough and a
snake on another.' And now you are
trying to finish the job by assassinating
me."
"Why didn't you come come down
before?"
"Well, you see, I happen to be en
gaged to Miss Cusack, whom you are
hugging." -

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington, Nov. 2, 1894.
The key to Mr. Cleveland's rather
queer actions has, thanks to the wagging
tongue of a Cleveland worshipper, been
found. Instead of his being engaged in
going through a period of old-fashioned
sulks with his party, he actually thinks
himself to be playing a. deep political
game that will result in making his own
the only name that will be seriously
mentioned for the democratic nomina
tion in "96. He believed for a long time
before the adjournment of congress that
democratic defeat, was probable this
year, and after adjournment and the
summing' up of the blunders made by
his party be became certain that the
republicans would control the next
house, but it was not until his 'most
hated personal enemy, Senator Hill,
was nominated for governor 'of New
York that he fully made up his mind
that neither himself nor any member of
hia cabinet would take any part in the
campaign, it was then also ;that the
possibilities of the game which had
been floating through his mind for some
time began to look to him like proba
bilities. His idea is that the democratic
defeat will impress it on the democratic
party that it ia only when Grover Cleve
land is intei ested or is a candidate that
it can win. His game is in short a re
vival of the "man of destiny" racket.
He will point out that it was the failure
of the democrats in congress to follow
his advice that made the party unpopu
lar, ignoring the fact that following of
his advice on' the tariff question would
have made it stiil more unpopular, and
will bend .all his energies for the rest of
his term to posing as the only democrat
who will have even a fighting chance to
win two years hence, not forgetting to
work the patronage at his disposal in
the interest of the Cleveland party. All
of which is decidedly amusing to repub
licans. Chairman Babcock, of the republican
congressional campaign committee, re
turned to Washington this week from a
ten days' stay in Wisconsin. When
asked whether he cared to revise hia
estimate made more than two weeks ago,
that the republicans would elect 190
members of the next house, he said : "I
can see no teason to change my state
ment in one particular, with this possi
ble exception : The latest returns show
that districts that -were considered aB
hopelessly democratic when I left Wash
ington are now felt to be probably re
publican, and districts where we felt we
felt we had & fighting chance are now
almost certain republican. There has
been no diminution in the trend towards
our success, and the republican wave,
instead of receding, ia growing higher
every day." Speaking of the claim of
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the dem
ocratic campaign committee, that the
democrats would carry "Wisconsin, Mr.
Babcock said: "It is a novelty to come
away from home to get news from there.
That is news indeed, "that the democrats
are going to carry the state ticket and a
majority of the congressional delegation.
If Mr. Faulkner's information on gen
eral matters ie no better than that from
Wisconsin, upon which he based his
claim, then his campaign must indeed
be wholly hopeless. If I were not cer
tain that this claim is a great bluff, I
should think It a huge joke, directed at
me. ' I cannot understand' how Mr,
Faulkner should have been so badly
misled in his estimate about the ticket

There ia no confidence among the demo

man of the democratic state committee,
Boss Wall,' who owns the democratic
party of Wisconsin, has practically given
up the fight. Just before I left I heard
that the best he could do towards keep
ing up a bold front was to offer to bet
$1,000 that the republican state ticket
would not be elected by more than 20,
000 majority. It is certain that we shall
elect more than a majority of the con
gressmen." Cas.

Putting Them in Stont.
The Winans' Bros, are hauling an
immense amount of timber to their
wheels across the river, or rather to
where the wheels were, for the purpose
of rebuilding them. From the size of
the timbers we judge the boys are de
termined to put the wheels in this time
so they will stay. They jave certainly
had experience enough with the high
water, to know what the Columbia can
do, and just what they have to contend
with. Knowing the Winans boys we
will make a small wager that no more
wheels will be carried away by high
water, unless it is higher than June 6,
1894, and that was pretty good for high.
