Never did the “Am erican Hog”
receive so grand a tribute as in the
quarterly report of the Kansas
Board of Agriculture. The Secre
tary says that the Hog is a “debt
payer,” a “mortgage lifter” and a
“buttress of prosperity.” More
over, “high class swine are un
known aad impossible among low
classpeople. Kansas swine, coin
age of Kansas grain and brain,
met at Chicago in 1893 the world
beaters, and beat them.” Marked
v pies of the report containing thia
eulogy as the American pig should
b» sent to every editor in Madrid.

Gold Bible Hill, the mound
where Joseph Smith, the founder
of the Mormon faith, claims to
have dug up, under celestial direc
tion, the golden plates on which
were inscribed the Mormon Bible,
is situated on the farm of Admiral
Sampson, near Palmyra, N. Y'
The Mormons tried to buy the
mound in ISpB to er r ct upon it a
memorial chapel, but the admiral
refused to sell, fearing, it is said,
that it would increase Mormonism.

Queen Victoria is the •wner of
oneot the most remarkable articled
ever made in prison. The Super*
intendeut of Agra Gaol, in India,
two years ago received an order to
weave a carpet of special design
for Her Majesty. Twenty-eight of
the deftest convicts of the estab
lishment were put to work on it.
The carpet measures 77 feet by 40
teet, and it is estimsted to contain
n j fewer than fifty million stitches,

John Ferguson, who works a
farm near palhoun, Ga , is 50
years old, just over eight feet tall,
and weighs 816 pounds. Up to the
age of 20 he w«s an invalid, but al
ter that time he increased in brawn
and muscle with miraculous rap
idity, until at the age of 30 he was,
as he is now, a veritable giant. He
is forty-eight inches around the
chest and forty-four around the
waist.

It is a good thing for some of the
newly-elected congr ssmen and

pictures of them were not required

that case many of the voters would

A universal war is believed by
the Paris Gau’ois l n be a brewing’
England, says clairvoyant of that
newspaper, will induce the
United States to make no
concessions tp Spain, and not
to cede coaling stations in the
Philippines to any ( f the Euro*
ptan Powers--Ruesih'and Germany
for instance. A conflict will ensue,
England by taking sides with
America will compel other nations
having interests in Asia to rush
into the melee—and there you are !
But the premises of the Gaulois
are all wrong. England is not urg
ing nor is it to her interest to urge,
the United States or anybody else
to a commerce destroying conflict.
The uriversal war predicted by the
Gaulois will, therefore not ma*
teralize. Let the clairvoyant editor
brew another!

At a recent meeting of the pro

it was decided to forward to Pres

their amusement. The gladiators
will state that General Lee during
his residence in Cuba never missed
an opertunity to witness a fight
They also declare that all Ameri
