THE PRICE REDUCED.
By reference to another column
of the Gazette it will be Been that
the subscription price of the paper
has been reduced to $2 00 per year,
subscription strictly in advance.
This reduction is made possible
from the fact that our subscription
list has largely increased on the
cash basis at the old rate and we
believe that our patrons should
now get the benefit of a reduction.
And not only this, but we believe
that we can by this maeus further
extend our subscription list, there.
by giving the Gazette great pres
tige as an advertising medium,
which will more than compensate
us for what little we lose in the
price of the paper per year.
It .is the intention to improve
the paper and make it more a&
ceptable to the public as a medium
of home news. We shall take no
backward step, and ask that the
public may show an appreciation
of our efforts to give them a good
paper at a reasonable price, by a
continuance of their liberal patron-
plates can be prepared, will be
welcomed by the handlers of
money in banks and business es
tablishments to whom the pictorial
silver certificates now in use are a
source of much worry.
Now is the time to advertise;
Now is the time to subscribe for
the Gazette.

THE ELECTION.
The reports from Eastern elec
tions do not present any special
surprises. This is what is termed
the "off year," and it has been the
fate of the party in power to be
turned down on those occasions.
That this rule is still in vogue, is
plain enough even this year. True,
there wore no decisive victories
for the opposition to the victors of
last year, yet the big majorities
were reduced in most cases, and
here and there the fusion forces
carried the day. But there was
no tidal wave. There seems to
have beon no special objection to
the administration, but a lack of
interest was manifest almost every
where, with the exception of
Greater New York.
With Henry George, sr., laid
low by the icy hand of death,
Van VVyck easily triumphed. The
substitution of young George for
hia father, as a candidate for
mayor of , Mia aooond greatest mu
nicipality in thfl world, did not re

Col. J. V. Redinoton, one of
the brightest newspaper men of
the West, and who possesses an
originality in all things that is en
tertaining, has sold his Puyallup
paper to a man who has no "Cher-
sey cows or setter dogs to spend
his time on," and who, he thinkB,
therefore, will have more time to
devote to the paper business.
"Red" may have said some very
cutting things about those people
who did not treat him with decent
consideration. In this, as a mat
ter between man and man, he was
usually right. He has the mental
gauge with which to measure a
sneak and he usually gives him
his proper dose. But withal,
God never made a bigger-hearted
man or a nobler friend. The Ga
zette hopes him Buccess wherever
he goes.
could not rally the free Bilver-sin-gle
tax-reform forces. Most of
the votos went to Vau Wyck, al
though he was the candidate'of
Tammany and the opponent of the
l.ryan forces. While Bryanism
cannot gut any consolation out of
this victory, yet it can congratu
late itself that a democrat has
been elected. The baud of Tom
Piatt made this possible. Low
should havo beon eudorsod by tho
republicans. With he and Tracy
in the field tho olection of either
was impossible. In the state tho
great republican landslide of two
years ago has boon roversod, but
the HHHombly will still remain re
publican.
In Iowa, South Dakota and Ohio
the republicans havo won, though
tho logislaturo in Ohio will be very
close. Maryland democracy, which
ftdoptmj an anti-Bryan platform
on the "straddle" order, has un
doubtedly gone democratic by
small plurality. This will insure
Gorman's return. Massachusetts
has given an itmurnso republican
plurality.

There are queer people in this world.
Among' the queerest are some of the
inventors who flood the patent office
with their severely queer designs.
"Yes," said an official recently, "we
see multitudes of 'cranks' at this build
ing, and our chief amusement is to
read the specifications of ambitious
but erratic inventors, who clamor for
a grant of patent. There is the air
ship 'crank,' with a quiet notion in his
head that he is to be some day a pub
lic benefactor, but who really knows
as much about aerostation as a jack
rabbit. Next to him in oddities of
thought is tho fire-escape dreamer,
with his ladders, pulleys and cables."
Upon investigation in the record
room I discovered drawings of the lat
est patents piled on a low shelf. Upon
perusal the first device of a peculiar
nature was discovered. The invention
in question was an improved method
of exterminating mosquitoes, for which
a Texan was given letters patent. The
winged messengers of bliss probably
made themselves obnoxious to the
patentee and he determined to anni
hilate the whole species. His inven
tion is a queer and complicated inter
mixture of screens, gauze and whirring
mechanism, into which the little buzz
ing songsters are drawn and effectual
ly annihilated.
Another inventive genius from the
west solicited a patent for a fruit
picker. This instrument is a very
inodest-1 ooking affair, resembling1
somewhat one-half of a pair of shears.
A Bmall ring fits over the fore-finger of
tho operator, and brings at right angles
a cutting edge or blade. The fruit to
be cut is held in tho left hand, and by
grasping tho stem in a certain manner
with the right hand and giving a quick
twist either the aforesaid fruit or the
thumb will bo severed. Tho inventor
in this case seemed to overlook the
fact that the greatest varieties of
American fruits do not grow on bushes
or within reach of the hand, and last,
but not least, the welfare of the per
son handling his useful little imple
ment has to be respected.
A little way down m the file is a pe
culiar looking machine, patented by a
Michigander and used by said gentle
man in lifting pans from Btoves. The
apparatus embodies such a complicated
mass of levers, screws and other similar
devices of mechanism that it is safe to
say hispanlifter will never find popular
favor in the American kitchen.
For the past six months a car-coup
ling epidemic has rpread itself and
permeated every t;tate in tho union.
The epidemic is a mania for all elusses
to invent car-couplers and get patent
grants therefor.
Tho larger portion of these couplers
are so complicated and useless that the
anxious patentees will never receive
an iota of good from their inventions.
A certain individual from the Um
pire state named Collins applied for a
grant on a wickleua lamp. The latter
was tested and an explosion followed.
The lamp and application went to
pieces together.
!ut the queerest of queer departures
in thisenlightuned ngc isthat taken by
an eccentric resident of Ohio, who in
vented an equally eccentric bout on
eccentric ideas. The boat was to be
so constructed as to roll over the wa
ters in tho fashion of a log or wheel.
This strange craft was to be propelled
by the wind striking on suitable
bludes standing out from the radii
of the hull. The Oliioan failed to
state in his hpeeifliatioim how the
crew of the bout would dispose of
themselves during the revolutions of
the body on the t.urfaee of the deep,
and the examiners sent his application
higher than a balloon.
Then comes along a certain man
named Knox, n bona tide citizen of a
southern stn.', who lias not apparently
protited by the example of the Ameri
can who tneil to eaten sunshine hiiuit
years ago. This modern mortal has
constructed a conundrum which he
alleges will effectually capture the
heat from old Sol. and retain the same
for later use. This philosophical won
der is in the hands of the originator's
attorney, and has nut as yet mude
it appearance in the interior depart
ment, where it will be practically
tested, uiid then, in all probability, it
will Hilda deep grave under the de
partment foundation.
Another Into application Is that of
JaniesCienrv, whoelaium he enncapture
and store atmospheric electricity dur
ing a thunder Monti for home eon-
sumption.

A discovery of probably great ar
shisological value, as regards the pre
historic people of the United States,
vas recently made on the farm of II.
Richwalls, twenty-five miles southwest
of Decatur, in Wise county, Tex. It
eonsists of a pavement of petrified
wood covering the summit of a mound
one and a half acres in area. Samples
of the pavement were brought to the
Dallas News by D. M. Garvin, of Cleve
land, O., who made the following
statement regarding the discovery:
"The mound is sixty feet high, square
shaped and with sloping sides. It was
looked upon as an ordinary clay struc
ture until a short time ago, when, in
digging the soil on the summit, which
is level and measures an acre and a
half, a petrified pavement was struck
nnder what appeared to be a shallow
4eposit of drift. Further explorations
showed that the entire summit of the
mound was paved. The petrified blocks
were laid on ends as compactly as a
Nicholson pavement. In places the
pavement is perfectly smooth, while in
other places, owing to the depression
that the soil has undergone during the
ages, it is irregular. The mound,
which was constructed with mathemati
cal precision, also contains some
olocks of stone that seem to have been
used in a building." The samples of
the pavement are four inches long, and
undoubtedly are petrified wood. Three
inches of their length is silica and the
remaining inch, measuring to the
wearing surface, is carbonate of lime.
This combination, which is not uncom
mon in petrifications, shows that the
pavement was probably set in silicioua
sand and that the upper part was sub
jected to the action of water contain
ing lime in solution. The blocks give
evidence of having been split by a
sharp instrument and sawed at the up
per surface. While thousands of
mounds have been discovered on this
continent this is the only one in which,
through the agency of petrification,
natwre has embalmed an evidence of a
place in civilization occupied by the
mound builders far in advance of what
had been accorded them by anti
quarians. That this mysterious race practiced
the arts of agriculture is proved by the
fact that mounds are so close together
in some districts as to have rendered it
impossible for their occupants to have
subsisted by fishing and hunting; and
that those inhabitants engaged in min
ing and commerce is proved by the dis
lovery in Peruvian mounds of Lake
Superior copper. Hut although copper
jhisels, rimmers and indented knives
that might have been used as saws)
nave been found in mounds, there
never was any proof that the mound
builders were wood workers until this
liscovery in Wise county. Wood being
article that time destroys, all its ev
idences of the home life of the mound
builders must necessarily have long
dnce been obliterated, except where
preserved by the agency of petrifica
tion. While this agency in the Wise
jounty mound has only preserved a
beautiful pavement, it may bo inferred
that a people sufficiently advanced to
execute a work that in recent years
has immortalized icholson In the an
nals of street engineering were capa
ble of raising handsome wooden tem
ples and other structures. That they
were not of. the same race as the Indi
ans appears from the fact that the lat
ter have no tradition concerning the
origin of mounds, nnd were they the
original mound builders, though their
civilization subsequently perished
they could not have lost track of such
an important part of the history of
tbeir race.
Certain it is now that the mound
builders who once thickly inhabite
this country were agriculturists, me
chanics and trailers, but to find whence
came they and whither they went one
gropes in the darkness of the past.
Dhl their occupation extend back to
that period between the dawn of mnn
creation and the Xoachnn deluge? He
mains of man have Wen found in this
country that point to antediluvian an
tiquity. A piece of basket matting
was found in an Island in Vermillion
bay ,Iouisiana, In-low the remains of
an elephant; the remains of a maato
don, partly wasted, were found In Mis
souri, and in excavating for ga works
in New Orlenna a human skeleton
was found below the remains of four
rypres forests, the accumulation. In
the opinion of scientists, requiring
fourteen thousand years to form. The
?eolof ical age in which the puvement
on tlw mound in Wis county petrified
is a live subject nf inquiry and doubt
less will be disputed. Was it during
the period in which a great chain of
lakes extended from the liulf of Mex
ico northward, or when was It? It
was Horace (ireeley who undertook to
write up a mound for his paper, but
ifter all he could tell about It was eon
'ained in the words: "It Is here." He

Turned Over Only Vive Times After Be
Jumped.
Bill Haw was an awkward, ungainly
young man, whose life was spent on a
Kansas farm, says the New York World.
He lived near the little station of Hack:
ney and on one occasion came from a
near-by town on the train. It dashed
up toward the platform at a high rate of
speed. The engineer tried to apply the
air-brakes to stop the train, but they
refused to work. He whistled for the
hand brakes and the brakemen and the
conductor began twisting them as if
their lives depended upon stopping the
train.
Bill saw that something was the mat
ter and concluded that he was the cause
of it. The train was oast the station.
and he feared he would be taken past
is home, btanding on the lower plat
form he ga ve a wild leap off the train.
In describing Bill's descent after
ward the postmaster at Hackney, who
had seen Bill's flight through the air,
said: "I thought some one had thrown
saddle oft" the train. Bill rolled off
11 in a bunch. When the dust settled
own Bill emerged from the confusion
with his clothes nearly torn off him,
is face and hands skinned and an ap
pearance of terror on his face. He
actually turned over eight times after
he jumped before he stopped."
J. hat is a lie!" exclaimed Bill, who
had listened to the narration. "I never
turned over eight times. I turned over
five times. I reckon I ought to know,
counted 'em."

THE LATEST FAD.
Autograph Hats Mow the Rage with Col
lege Students and Summer Girls.
One of the new fads that started with
the Cornell university boys? is the fash
ion of wearing autograph hats. One
sees them everywhere, for college men
in other colleges have taken it up, and
have scattered themselves here and
there nmong the summer girls. The
hats are made of white, canvas, with
stitched brims. Names can be written
in ink anywhere on the Burface. One
of these had several names of well'
known men written upon it, among
them the man who pulled stroke for
the Cornell eight that won such a glori
ous victory over Pennsylvania, Harvard
and Columbia in that memorable boat
rnce at Poughkeepsie.
bentimental young men collect the
names of their sweethearts, though
this has its drawback, because there is
always the chance that the last girl will
want to know all about the other girls
whose names she finds written on the
hat before hers. The words are usual
ly printed, though script makes a liret-
tici hat and looks less like an advertis
ing device. To see stalwart young col'
lege men stalking along w ith these hat
on gives one the impression of one of
those impecunious individuals who
uiareu up ano aown upon the business
streets with a printed placard nn their
backs to the effect that "a regulur din
ner can be had at the Blank dairy lunch
lor 21) cents."
However, the fad is growing, and bv
fall the white hats will be black.
