WANTED 20 BORROW HIM.
The Queer Request Two Women Made and
the Reason Therefor.
A genial Philadelphian, who for ob
vious reasons does not care to have his
pame printed on this occasion, secured
a parlor car seat on an express train for
Reading a few days ago, and as he was
abont to pass through the gates was sur
prised to hear himself accosted in femi
nine tones with the somewhat startling
question, ‘‘Please, mister, could I bor
row vou for awhile?”’
Looking around, he found two buxom
women, who hastily and hesitatingly
explained that they were riding on a
pass madse out in the name of a gentle
man and his wife, and, as the gentle
man was not present, they wanted the
genial leoking citizen to place his
bought ticket at the dizposalof one lady
and take the other one under his wing,
while he personated the absent owner
of the pass.
«“Whick is my wife?” he inguired,
with an inward qualm, lest his own ab
sent better half should ever hear the
story.
«You ecan take your choice, sir,*’ said |
the lady in search of an escort, and he '
promptly did so by tucking the arm of ]
the younger fair one under hisown and |
Jeading her into the car. The couple
proved to be right jolly traveling com
panions, and the citizen’s only regret in
the transaction”was due to a fear that
the story might sleak out and get home
abead of him. Butit didn’t.—Philadel

ACOLONEL MARCHBANKS TONIGHT,
The Famous Texan Will Lectude in Daw
son This Evening. \
Colonel Columbus Marchbanks, the
famous Texas lecturer, will fill an en
cagement in Dawson at the opera hiouse
this evening. The Memphis (Tenn.
Commercials Appeal says of him and his
lecture in that city:
- “For and bhour and a half the audience
edjoyed the versatile lecturer. First one
thing and then another would he take
for a topic, and each narrative would be
threaded up to a highly exciting climax
before the second was introduced. Col.
Marclibanks’s personal appearance
somewhat resembles ex-Governor Bob
Taylor, while in address, both in words
and manner, the colonel reminded the
audience thats he possessed some of the
characteristics of the ex-governor and
Sam Jones. Those present greatly en
joyed the evening, aud should Colonel
Marchbanks fill a return engagement an
other hearty reception will be accorded
him.”’

A LONG LOST WATCH.
General Shelby Has Hopes of Receiving It
After Many Years.
General Jo shelby received some wel
come news recently, which he made
known to friends. He is of the opinion
that the news will ultimately result in
his securing again the gold watch that
was once his father’s and was stolen in
1848 at Lexington, Ky.
In 1848 General Shelby, who was
then but a young man, was employed at
Lexington by Colonel Samuel Jackson.
He slept in a 100 om over the business
house and was the owner of a fine gold
watch that had been carried for many
years by his father. At the death of the
elder Shelby it was presented to General
Shelby by his mother. One morning it
was stolen from his room by a sneak
thief, and po trace of it was discovered,
and the watch was given up as lost.
That was in 1830, and from that time
emtil a few daysagonotidings had ever
come to him of the wateh. Some days
ago he received a letter from a gentle
man ai Peach Orchard, W. Va., in
which he said be was in possession of a
wateh, and bhad veen for some time,
whicl eontained General Shelby’sname,
and he had understood it was Lils prop
erty at one time, and he wrote to learn
if he was still alive, and, if so, whether
he cared tc have the timepiece returned.
The letter awakened emotions aund
memories that bad slumbered tor nearly
half a century, and General Shelby be
came possessed of a deep desire to ses
the watch again aud have it in his pos
session. He said he would see that word
was seut to the man to forward the
watch and name a suitable reward for
it when it arrived. The watch, as
watches were valued at that time, was
a superior one in every respect.—Kan

; THE MONEY POWER.
Depew Says Eifty Men Can Stop the Wheel
| of Commerce in Twenty-Fgur Hours,
, To substantiate his charge that a mon
| ey power exists, Congressman Howard,
| in his book, quotes Chaunncey Depew as
E follows: *‘Fifty men of these United
| States have it in their power, by reason
iof the wealth which they control, to
{ come together within twenty-four hours
l and arrive atfan understanding by which
every wheel of tradcand commerce may
be stopped from revolving, every ave
‘ nue of trade blocked and every electric
| key struck dumb. Those fifty men can
| paralyze the whole country, for they
i control the circunlation of the currency,
and create panic whenever they will.”’
i Offers to Do Marvelous Things.
Norman Wiard laid some rather re
| markable propositious before the army
! board of fortifications. He offered to
| convert an old Rodiman smooth bore cast
! iron gan by the Reading-Wiard process
' into a 12 inch rifle, which could be fired
one-third more rapidly and exhibit
greater endurance than the best of the
modern steel rifled guans.
! He also proposed to convert the 20
| inch smooth bore cast iron Rodman gun
just removed as obsolete from Fort
’ Lafayette, New York harbor, into a 20
' inch rifle by the same process.
| Fioally he offered to build an ail
| steel high power 16 ineh rifle which, by
' some peculiarity of construction not dis
' closed, would increase in tensile strength
. with every shot fired.
.~ Mr. Wiard asked an allotment of
' fands for the purpose of bringing to
completion and test his first vammed
- proposition. The board took the ques
tion nnder consideration.—Exehange.
