CIIAI'TAI'QUA MI'.I'.TINO. llcvcridge and I,andis are Indi ana's twin stars, one scintillates in tlie senate ni'd the other in the lionsc of lenresentativcs in the present session of congress. The Maich ii'imber of Success says, "Charles 15.

Every sentence was n pointed shaft, every period a cannon ball. The vast concourse hurst into thunderous applause. His magnificent tribute to Ameri can womanhood was a fiery clastic. It was one of the greatest pilippics delivered in the house of repre ssntatives since the days of the Civil War." Congressman I.andis lias b-cu secured to open the great Chaatau'i 1a season of irpo at Glad stone Park. W.nt S im Jo is was last year, that will Congressman Lanlis lie this year on the memorial nth aul 1 2th of July in the great pa vilion at Gladstone. Without doubt I.audis is the greatest orator the Chautauqua has ever brought to this coast. SENSATIONAL. A sensational affair occurred in this city last Tuesday night. A couple of young Indies one of them is said to be under age by appointment met a couple of "sport ing" gentlemen in a certain publu resort in this city and proceeded to fill up on beer and "sich." It re sulted in making the drink come and one of the girls had to haven doctor and then be carried home while the other whose mother is away from home, was pretty full. In the morning when one of the girls was accused of acting in a manner unbecoming a lady, she made a break from the house and jumped headfirst into the river. Some boys were washing ahorse in the river, and quickly rescued the wayward girl. Out of respect to the parent not the participants cither men or women the names of the parties are with held.

Men and boys of all nges and climes have been and arc lovers of run and practical joking, but when such practice degenerates into low down cunning and pure etissedness it savors very much of the practices of the genuine hoodlum. J.nst Sunday evening a number of young men assembled on Main fjtrccl at a prominent hotel coiner and put in operation a diabolic trap to catch tlie unsuspecting weary ones who might happen to occupy one of the several vacant seats judiciously disposed in front of that hotelry. Under one of these vacant chairs was affixed beneath the .sidewalk the nozzle of a sprinkling hose which was connected with the water mains. When a victim seated himself in one of these in viting chairs the water was turned on by a small boy stationed for that purpose and prompted by the 011- lookers, and presto, change, the victim s iK'tlicr garments wae in- " '" week. stautly saturated by the chilling J Attorney John S.

Quite probable the land lord of the hotel was not cognizant - 1. r ,1 . 1. 1 ui ine liiiscmci ciiucieu aims uuur, but in any event the like should not happen again. NARROW ESC.U'E. Win. Landcss had a narrow escape last week. "Hill" was tak ing a ride on the upper deck of a cnyuse pony when the animal stumbled and commenced to fall. It took the inny a distance of several rods to fall but finally it and Hill made it, all heels up. When Mr. I.andess made his toikt that morning he absutmindedly stuck one leg of his panta loons in his boot top, nnd that p.iiticular boot top caught the sad He horn as the pony got up. There was a hot time around there for a few moments but finally Mr. I.andess managed to free himself from the perilous position and escaped with nothing more serious than a badly smashed toe. It is said that Mr. Lawless is authority for the statement thgt hereafter when he rides a horseback, he won't ride he'll walk. SATISFACTORY SKTTl.KMKNT. Through Messrs. dimming & Iluwley's attorneys Messrs. Kby and Johnson, a settlement satis factory to the creditors of the firm was arranged this week nnd the stock turned over to W. P. Schuller, recently from Jefferson. The stock invoiced $1350.00 and an indebted ness of $2250.00 was against the film. To avoid going through bankruptcy the attorneys for the firm finally arranged a settlement with the creditors at 55 cents on the dollar. KKW FIRM. The general merchandise stock of dimming and Ilawley, was pur chased Monday by W. P. Schuller a former successful business man of Jefferson, who opened the doors of the store to the public last 1 ties day. Mr. Schuller will carry an up-to-date stock in every particular, and will appreciate calls from the old patrons of the house, nnd as many new ones who will favor him with a call. GOOD AVI'OINTMHNT.
