THE BEST FENCING.
Woven Steel \pire, Heavy Galvanized,
Stands Every Test.
The development of fencing,
from the stone walls of England
and the snake fence of Virginia,
through all the heart-breaking ex
periences of .farmers with barbed
wire and fence building machines,
has been such a slow process, that
many farmers began to‘lose faith
in the perfection of a good wire
fence, until the American Field
and Hog Fence appeared.
This highly satisfactory fence
has been improved and now is so
perfect that ail fencing shipped
from the factories of the makers
is guaranteed. It is made of heavy
Bessemer steel wife. This wire is
heavily galvanized and is then
woven in a costly machine of
such delicate adjustment, and the
weaving is done with such exact
ness that when the fence is sub
jected to a strain of’ ten or fifteen
tons, every wire receives exactly
the same amount of strain as
every other wire in proportion to
its breaking strain. The Ameri
can fencing is delivered in rolls
nil ready to streach and staple to
the posts. It comes in heights
from 20 inches to 58 inches. It
is so quickly adjusted that three
men can put up a mile of it in a
day after the posts are set.

Cleveland and Bryan.
New York’s Most Famous Wedding.
Perhaps the most sensational
ceremony of marriage that has ev
er been performed in New York
Birmingham News.
_Mr. Cleveland was 65 years old
March 18, and is reported to be
th^mei-irbon ^ f n !^ versaries > i was the oue known every where in
ed the mKl the United States as the “Dia-
ea, tne mind grows retrospective,
and Cleveland yesterday must
ha,ve found much upon which to
felicitate himself. He has lived
to see his statesmanship vindica
ted. Pie has lived to see a grdat
change in public sentiment to
ward himself. He is surrounded
by a loving and happy family.
He has attained the highest rung
of political distinction, and the
strifes and struggles are behind
him. The suggestion, a linger
ing relic of the freuzied mania
that pictured Clevlaud a few years
ago an ally of Wall street, has
been made that he will again as
pire to the Presidency. Those
who> have observed Mr. Cleve
land’s sturdy Amerioanship know
better. He lias ho aspiration to
be an officeholder nor a boss. He
is passing the evening of his life
as he would wish, and in follow
ing the dictates of his desires is
an exemplar also of the best type
of-American citizenship. Here’s
wishing him many happy returns
of the day.”
Of Mr. Bryan, The News says:
“William Jennings Bryan
March 19 celebrated his forty-
second anniversary. In the prime
of life, robust in health and
mind, he is a sjffenclid type of
manhood. Distinction came to
him early, at an age when the
great majority of able men are
still obscure. That one differs
from Mr. Bryan in some of his
political views does not interfere
with a recognition of his admira
ble personal qualities. The puri
ty of his private life, his integrity
and his sincerity of conviction
are bound to inspire esteem and
respect independent of any opin
ion of his political judgment. Mr.
Bryan is a young man still. He
will doubtless never again aspire
to the Presidency, but in the ab
sence of unforseen accident he is
destined to be a political factor
for many years to come/ Here’s
to a long life and a happy one.”
His System Failed.
Dr. Saxton was a very learned
man, with thin skin that redden
ed on the slightest provocation,
and very light—not to say white—
eyelashes. In the hard days im
mediately after the Civil War in
the absence of other employment,
the good Doctor took charge of
the village school, and was soon
nearly beside himself with what
seemed the impossible task of get
ting little Willie Brewer to learn
his abc’s. Finally Doctor Saxton
resorted to a system of mnemon
ics original with himself and be
gan with what he thought were
the easiest letters.
“Now, Willie,” he said, “when
you come to this long, straight
letter just think of your eye. Re
member, now, that is ‘I.’ ”
But when Willie came bafft to
the Doctor’s knee an hour later he
had forgotten.
“What is that my son?” inquir
ed the Doctor.
“I do’ know.”
“Ok, yes, you do. What is it?”
encouragingly.
“I do’ know,” with mournful
conviction.
• “What do you see here?” asked
the Doctor, pointing his .forefinger
close to his own eye and involun
tarily shutting and squinting up
that organ as he did so.
Willie looked earnestly and
much longer than seemed neces
sary, “I don’t see nothin’, ” he
at last whispered out, “but six
little white hair§.”—March Wo
man’s Home Companion.
mond Wedding.” It was the un
ion of a daughter of Lieutenant
Bartlett, of the United States
Navy, to a Cuban gentleman of,
great wealth,. Don Estaban Santa
Crflz de Oviedo. As generous as
he was opulent, Oviedo lavished
upon the bride more than one
hundred thousand dollars’ worth
of pearls and diamonds. The nup
tial rites were solemnized by Arch
bishop Hughes; Stedmau com
memorated the event in a poem,
and moralists pointed to it as an
extraordinary instance of the
evils of splendor and luxury that
were corrupting American society.
So great was the curiosity to
witness this wedding that proba
bly for the first time on such an
occasion cards of admission were
issued to the ohurqh. A squad of
policemen was required simply to
protect the bride and groom from
strangers who.rushed after them.
The magnificent nuptals,it may
be remarkedj had a melancholy
sequel: the bridegroom soon died;
his widow, under the Spanish
laws, was entitled only to the
right of dower, and all the gifts
which he had showered upon her
were taken away from her on the
ground that legally they were
heirlooms.—March Ladies’ Home
Journal,
It May be Gorman and Hanna.
Col. R. E. 'Lester, congressman
from the 1st district, has been in
congress many years, and is one
of the closest observers and ablest
men in that body from the south.
The Washington correspondent of
the Morning News quotes Qol-
Lester as predicting that Arthur
P. Gorman will be the nominee of
the democratic party for presi
dent. Gorman is, undoubtedly,
one of the ablest and shrewdest
men in the democratic party. The
south would take to him very
kindly. And Col. Lester does
not believe that Rroosevelt will
be nominated by the republicans.
He thinks Senator Hanna will
get the nomitation? On this
point he is quoted as saying:
“From what T can hear the re
publicans are rallying around
Hanna to bring the party into
accord once more. I consider Mr.
Hanna’s chances for the nomina
tion quite ahead of any other re
publican. The business men look
upon him as a safe business man,
and that element in the republi
can party, will, I believe, insist
upon his nomination.”
