1889. Town lots were staked off in Outhrie, Oklahoma, April 22. A week tha town had organized botli a city government and a baftehall club. HOME RUN ON THREE STRIKES. i A San Francisco paper says that men go Into tho garden of life and pluck the owect, ripe peach, while women must ttay back and take the canned goods.

About this time tho husband whosa tiervea cannot stand house cleaning, and who had to leave home or board at a hotel for hia health, will be stealing gently back to hifl residence. An English firm lias brought oat a now "seanl- tfra flame burner," BO called, which It said can to extinguished entirely by a loud noise. burner will bo a boon to people who are prone I read after going to bed. When they get sleepy they can "holler" the light York Tribune. A good many people need not take eren that trouble.

They could Bnore it out. Attendants and officers in poor houses and lunatic asylums need to be careful how they treat those committed to their care. They can never be sure that it is not a newspaper reporter they are maltreating, who will record their deeds in cold black and white, 1 and who had himself.locked up for that very purpose. Franco Stands Alone. A strange thing happened at the opening of the Paris exposition.

There was not present at the ceremonies an nmbas- eador or delegate from a single one of the great powers of Europe. They stayed away on principle. Tho Paris exposition the centenary of the downfall of monarchy in France and the beginning of "government -o'f tho peoplo, by tliu iwopju-jHidJoiv tho people," in fhelminortal words of our own Lincoln. Therefore, the represenatives of monarchies and empires studiously remained away from that opening. Cord Lytton, the English minister, eaid in so many words: "We spent eight hundred million pounds sterling in making war against the principle and policy which France how commemorates." The curtain la here lifted for a moment upon some of tho difficulties our brave sister republic over the water fights against.

Besides, this soap brings to the till More profit than the IVORY will." A Pretty Fight. Newspaper young men who were sigh- tog for something to break the dullness of events after May 1 have had their wishes gratified. Juat as tho last echoes of the centennial celebration died away along comes Gen. Benjamin F. Butler and says that at tho taking of New Orleans, twenty-seven years ago last April, Porter showed the white feather and ran away down tho river with his mortar boats, while, Farragut passed up under tbe forts, April 24, with the rest of the fleet and did the work that resulted in the fall of New Orleans.

Gen. Butler says in substance that he wished to put this statement on record while Porter was alivo, because he didn't wish to be guilty of saying anything bad about him after he was dead. In this respect Benjamin F. showed a consideration that is unusual in mankind. The admiral of the navy lives in dignity and repose at Washington.

But he has a and of hia own. Gen. Butler's statement naturally waked all the lingering instincts of war in Admiral Porter's brave heart. Both tongue and pen wag hot and lively. Porter Bays that Butler lies in his foul throat, or words to that effect, and that he never would have said it if ho had been sober.

"I came near thrashing him when he was military governor of. New Orleans, and I wish now I had done it. He sent me an impertinent message once and he had to apologize." "Says I was drunk, does hei 1 retorts Gen. Butler. "Why I hadn't even started in when I made that statement.

He can't tell the truth anyhow. This matter is going to be settled once for all, and I'm going to settle it. If Porter says ho came near thrashing me he must have been dreaming. If he says I ever made an abject apology to liim ho lies." Of these two hot blooded young fellows Butler is 70 and Porter 75 years old. combinwhiaval- and military force of the States appeared below New Orleans, in the Mississippi river.

Porter then held the rank of commander. Farragut was a captain in the navy, and had immediate yvfpmnnil of tho attacking fleet. FJghty- three miles below New Orleans were the Confederate forts, Jackson and St. Philip, on opposite aides of the river. Above the forta was a considerable Confederate fleet, including the ironclad Louisiana.

There waa a difference of opinion as to whether the fleet should first attempt to (he forts named or should quietly run by them in tbe night or in a fog, and destroy the Confederate fleet above. Porter was inclined to tho opinion that the forts should be first attacked. Fanragut did not do thto, however, but ntn the batteries, as already mentioned, destroyed the fleet and pushed on to Orleans. Butler Landed his troops in rear of Fort 8t Philip and made fttteck. It is a fact, meantime, that mortar fleet at the satua tfaeUtng Fort Jockaon, opposite.

Bishop and a friend, Francis Bacon, an attorney of Oregon, are in Washington to induce the president not to appoint Neff, but to give the office to Mr, Bishop. Congressman Hitt haa recommended Bishop and he has written endorsements from oil the State Senators of hia district and many others; the leading men of Bockford; the republican county committees of Ogle, Carroll and Winnebago counties and a host of others. The programme announced by these men Is that as a Congressman's backing settled the Springfield collectorship, regardless of Senatorial championship la another direction, so the same will be accomplished for Northern Illinois district. It la thought there will not be any appointment made until July. Mr.

Bacon Ocean correspondent and gave the above facts, as well as the following: "It la well known that Neff was agreed upon for District Attorney in the event of that appointment coming -our way; but General Henderson got his law partner, Mllchristy slated for that, and now we dialiKe to have Neff pose ona minute au a candidate for District Attorney and the next for Internal Bevenue Collector. If the latter office la to come to our region Bishop is the undoubted choice of the district, and tha elections to the State Legislature which will make our next Utes Senator will demonstrate that fact. Neff has held no office that I ever heard of except that he is a member of the State Board of Equalization. He is a railroad attorney and a director of tbe new branch of the Illinois Central road from Freeport to Chicago. James Neff is not the choice of the Congressman of our district, Mr.

Hitt, nor ifl he the choice of the blxth District of Illinois, the working Republicans, I mean, not referring now to the acquiescent Republicans who accept everything.
