A Gentleman’s Joke.
At the time be whipped Sullivan the
outside public were particularly in
structed as to the extreme gentleman-
hood of the Hon. James J. Corbett. He
would never stoop to say or do a low
down thing, would Gentleman Jim.
His manners were Chesterfieldian; his
morals were immaculate. He could give
moral points to any respectable family
man in the End. The devotion of the
champion to his wife was dwelt on above
all his other virtues and graces, and
pictures of the felicity of this wedded
unit were put before newspaper readers
ad nauseam.
The first rude shock the public sus
tained in the contemplation of this an
gelic picture came when his devoted
and loving wife sued him for divorce
and got it in New York state. What,
this model family man!
And now a doting and credulous pub
lic weeps to learn that the “gentleman”
has been engaged in a low down bar
room row with Fitzsimmons, The low
est kind of a row it was. Gentleman
Jim himself explains it by saying that
he remarked toFitz “in a joking wo^
“Ob, yes, quite so. You don’t know
the way to write. You’d better get my
brother to write your name for you. ”
Then Gentleman Jim furthered his lit
tle pieasantryby spitting in tke Face of
the would be champion. Whr.t a high
toned gentleman this Chesterfield of
prizefighters is, to bo suto l
And now his friends fear that his
conduct will give the public a bad im
pression of prizefighters. Dear, dear,
this is quite too bad!
A Wrecked Home.
The editor of The Rnral New Yorker
has done not a little toward making the
country homes of this country beautiful
and the lives of those who live in them
easier and happier. These will learn
with deep regret of the disaster which
has overtaken the country home of that
editor. Ho himself is a farmer and hor
ticulturist, and his grounds were beauti
ful with many growths. Several acres
have been given up to experiment
grounds, reports from which reach the
editor’s readers. What befell this beau
tiful rural home is best told in the
words of Mr. Carman himself;
Wo wish that we might say to our readers
that the reports of the tornado that swept
over th© Rural Grounds wore “grossly exag
gerated.” No, indeed, they are worso than
reported. The stricken path of the tornado is
a wreck. Not only, as previously stated, are
tho crops ruined, many houses and outbuild
ings totally or partially destroyed, bnt the
beautiful groves and woods that so added to
the attractiveness of this wild and rolling
country are gone—no, not gone, tho wood is
all there, bnt --hanged from verdure to decay.
We walk over to Emwood, our experiment
field, and look about as ono in a dream. Wo
have our notebook as in previous seasons, but
thero aro no notes to take. They have all
been taken. The grove of oaks, chestnuts,
beeches, maples, birched 1 , tulips, with an un
dergrowth of thousands of natural flowers and
over 1,000 introduced shrnbs and hardy her-
bacoons plants so enjoyable nnd restful during
the heat of the day, is now a mass of broken
and splintered timber, kindling wood, huge
roots, sections of trees that could not have
been rendered more suggestive of bavoo and
ruin had they beenthrloe struck by lightning.
It is 23 years siueg xye bniR and laid out tho
Rural Grounds, and it Is out natural that wo
should fee^attfl'-lj^d totbo j»laS5 and tjje sur
rounding couii t ry by'all sorts of endearing as
sociations. But the tornado has so changed
all that it seems hard to realize that it is tho
same country and the same home.
KENTUCKY TOW.
Hfcrfy to > Koch Worn Next Yean
Cheap and Cool.
Kentucky man in town. Shook him
by tho hand and asked him, “Do you
feel as cool as you look?” and he an
swered. “Never was more comfortable
in summer in my life.” “What’s that
suit made of you have on?” said L
'‘Kentucky tow,” was his answer.
“Tho woof is hemp and tho web is cot
ton. Up north here we call it ‘grass
cloth, ’ and next season it will be all the
rage. I’m in the business of manu
facturing it, and today I took an order
for 20,000 yards of it. You can make
it coarse or fine, just as you want, and
call it ‘Russia crash,’ or any othep title
that is foreign or fetching, but after all
it’s just old Kentucky tow and nothing
else. What do you suppose this suit
stands just as I am wearing it?”
“Couldn’t guess for the life of me,”
I replied “I’m no judge of goods of
the kind. I suppose $18 or $20. ”
* ‘ Three dollars, “said my friend. ‘ ‘X)f
course that’s counting the material at
actual cost price and tho making at
manufacturers’ rates. A suit like this
can be sold by the retail trade at $8 and
yield a fine profit Next season the
ladies will be wearing it for outing
suits and skirts as well as the men.
Will it wash? Of course it will, but it
doesn’t show dust and doesn’t get dirty
any sooner than a light woolen suit, so
that It won’t require washing more
than once or twice in ii season. Believe
me. next season every weli dressed lady
and gentleman will have at least one
grass cloth suit in her or his wardrobe,
and the demand for it is going to make
the hemp trade of Kentucky mighty
lively. Evidently Kentucky tow is a
good thing, and 60 I push it along. ”—

WILL STUDY OUR CROPS,
Agricultural Attache* to He Sent by Eu
ropean Government*.
Several of tho European governments
have decided to send to their embassies
or legations in this country what they
term “agricultural attaches. ” Such an
attache will be expected to keep his
home government informed not only as
to crop conditions, prospects and prices
in the United States at regular intervals,
bnt also to keep his people posted as to
progress in all agricultural methods and
improvements from time tc time
Germany is the first to send an at
tache of this sort, who arrived in Wash
ington a few days ago. His name is
Beno Reinhardt Freiherr von Herrmnn.
He is a baron, although an agricultur
ist, so that he will no doubt be welcome
into official society this winter despite
his long name.
It is understood that both the Eng
lish and French governments will soon
follow the example of Germany and
send an agricultural attache to their
embassies here, and Secretary Morton
uow thinks that it might be wise on the
part of our government to return the
compliment by sending some of onr
most practical and successful farmers
abroad in place of the few military and
naval attaches wlio presumably adorn
the diplomatic service of the United
States.—Chicago Times-Herald.

Since tho days of * * Uncle Tom’s Cabin ’ ’
no book has had such n run as “Trilby. ”
Although time enough has elapsed and
fuss enough has been made for every
man, woman nnd child in this country
to have read the book, its popularity is
still unabated. At libraries all the copies
aro spoken for weeks ahead. At a libra
ry in Philadelphia sometimes as many
as GO names were on the waiting list,
although the collection held many copies
of Du Maurier’s masterpiece. And yet
in this volume there is not a murder, a
horror—unless it be the death of Sven-
gali—or any great sensation. Tho ele
ment of attraction in the story is un
doubtedly first of all the gentle, lova
ble, good tempered, genuine nature of
tho leading characters. This ought to
bo a lesson to novelists who strain them
selves to fill their stories with morbidi
ty and grewsome sensation.
This government ought to fit out a con
siderable number of small sized gunboats
to do service in foreign lands, particu
larly in Asia. For this purpose the Ohio
river flat bottomed stern wheel steam
boat furnishes a model that cannot be
excelled. Daring the civil war dozens
of little steamboats of this type were
taken and partially armored and put
into commission as gunboats among the
shallow rivers around Vicksburg and
throughout the Mississippi valley. They
did immense service too.
FOR SALE—Anjacre of property on Par
allel street, with four tenement houses. A
splendid residence lot, the cheapest property
now being offered in Way cross. Fays 20 per
cent on investment. This is a portion of the
Butler property and will not be on the
market long at the price we are offering it at
Call at once or you will miss a bargain.
FOR SALE—One bouse, two stories, store
on first floor, six or eight rooms on second
floor; kitchen and good garden. Near court
house on Albany avenue.
All property placed in our hands will re
ceive prompt attention. Rents collected, re
turns promptly made. Sales made, papers
•xoecuted. » Ail the trouble is ours.

BLOOD POISON
All men will agree that one of the at
tractions of the forthcoming Atlanta ex
position will be the calendar of portraits
of southern beauties in the Woman'
building. Mrs. Caroline C. Hovel1 paint
ed the portraits originally, and the cal
endar will contain reproductions ol
them. There will be portraits of bean-
tiful, high spirited women all over the
south from Texas to Kentucky.
The world’s national debts amount in
the aggregate to over $25,000,000,000,
and they are increasing: When most of
the present mass of debt, national and
individual was incurred, both silver and
gold were legal tender metals, and it
was expected that both would be avail
able for payment.
The nineteenth century will go down
in history as the one in which mankind
did business on a credit basis. The re
sult has been disaster unparalleled in
the history of the world’s finances.

FOR EACH DOLLAR INVESTED Can be made by our
Systematic Plan of Speculation
originated by us. All successful speculators operate on a regular system. .
It is a well known fact Iliat there are thousands of men in all parts of the United
States who. by systematic trading through Chicago brokers, make large amounts every
vear. Tanging from a few thousand dollars for the man who invessts :\ hundred or t\v«? •
hundred dollars up to $50,000 to $100,000 or more by those who invest a few thousand.
It is also a fact that those who make the largest profits from comparatively small .in-
vesfcnents on this plan are persons who live away from Chicago and invest through bro
ken who througly understand systematic trading. .
Our plan does not risk the whole amount invested on any trade, hut covers both sjde£<
so that whether the market rises or falls it brings asteady profit that piles up enormously
