A man who will take every possible remark that is made as applying to him self must think there is no one else of Importance in this world. There is one bicycle agent in Law rence who works so hard duria the day to sell machines that in the night he can be heard repealing is little piece. The Salvation army is supposed to be organized to lead people to heaven, but nobody ever supposed its mission was also to put them in a condition to go there.

A prominent democrat was heard to remark yesterday that he didn't think there was much show for anybody but the republicans this fall even if the dem ocrats and people's party did fuse Merchants Lawrence report that their business this year has been nearly doubled, over that for the same period last year and they all anticipate a big fall trade. This is the strongest kind of evi dence of the prosperity of the farmers, LEAVER'S NEW 8 ATTRACTING 3iucn ATTENTION dollars Lawrence dry goods merchants captured the dry goods contract for the coming year at the Kansas state peni tentiary. Mr. Innes and Mr. Weaver were both bidders and each got a share of the goods to furnish.

Geo Innes got the big end of the con tract, his share amounting to over LINEN AND MUSLIN. Soma Pretty Effects Wrought by Wonin'l Dainty Finger. Corn napkins are an essential feature of summer napiery. They are about a half yard square, fringed on the edges and embroidered in designs of corn flowers or of corn blades and ears. Bed pockets are also made of linen or wash silk embroidered, edged with lace about the top and interlined with per fumed wadding.

They are particularly convenient for invalids, whose small belongings have a disagreeable knack of getting out of sight or reach just when most needed. Hanging pockets for the bureau and dressing table are also convenient as receptacles for the mussed handkerchiefs and laces which are too fine for out to the common laundry. A cozy idea is that of hanging cur tains of blue denim on the sunny side of unsheltered verandas, a pair of cur tains between each post. These are looped back with bands of crimson cloth and seem more picturesque, while af fording equal protection from the sun than awnings. Bags of scarlet cotton shirred up on drawstrings, overlaid with fish net and generous in size, are convenient receptacles for the fancy work and books, glasses and things needful for the morning on the veranda.

Plain book muslin makes the daintiest kind of bureau and toilet covers. If the room where it is used is pink or blue, the muslin is stamped with a bold con ventional design of wild roses, which are to be embroidered in the simple short and long stitch or with buttonholed edges in shades of pink. The leaves are outlined in dull green and the whole cover cobwebbed coarsely with fine silk in pink or blue, according to the lining, which may be of pink or blue silesia. The cover should be cut exactly the shape of the bureau itself and have a plaited frill to hangover the edge. When a woman will she will, and that was how the first book-case was made of a packing box and matting by a clever woman who couldn't afford a suitable place for her beloved books in any other way.

After getting the box fitted with shelves at small expense, she covered it herself with peacock blue matting, edging it everywhere with the split hair of an old fish rod, nailed in place with fancy brass-headed nails. From a brass rod at the front she hung a curtain of white cheese cloth, with a border of yellow daisies, "brown-eyed Susans" the children call them, which she worked herself in coarse, long stitches.

"Your suggestion sbout a bicvele tournament in last night's paper." said a prominent cyclis'. to a Journal reporter this morning, "is an excellent one, and I hope the wheelmen and women of the city will get together soon and make soma arrangement toward this end. Two years ago, I think it was. there was a small tournament at the driving park track just south of town, and lots of inteiest was taken in it and big crowds a tended it. Tbe merchants offered some smnll prizes and they had a number of different races, This year with the increased popularity of the wheel many new and novel features could be arranged.

and it would be a sight in itself to sea all the bicyclers of the city in one grnd parade on the grounds and going to and from them. I am confident such a tournament would result in a manner highly satisfactory to everybody." The Cj clones turned out in good numbers last night for drill. This was wit nessed by a large number of people and while not as good as the boys are capa bleof, showed marked improvement over previous appearances. At the business meeting seyeral new members were voted in and some other miscellaneous acli.m The club will be present at the grand opening of the campaign iu this district on September 1.

It is not generally known that the Consolidated Barb Wire company of Lawrence have the only factory of the kind in Kansas and one of the largest in the country. In fact, the new shops are said to be the most complete in tbe United States, For some time the company have had in contemplation a wire and wire nail mill and within a few days it has been decided to erect such a plant. Two immeuse turbine wheels will be put in giving 300 horse power. The new building will occupy all the space between eltctric light works and the barb vire plant. The rods will be purchased in tbe east but the wire will be drawn.

annealed and galvanized in the new mill which will have a capacity of 50 tons of wire and 200 kegs nails per day, giv ing employment to fifty men No more important and significant move in tbe manufactuiing district of Lawrence has been made for years.

Bowersock is now in correspond ence with eastern manufacturers with a yiew to the occupancy of the old barb wire building which was vacated because too small for the increasing business of the Consolidated company. The new industry is an extension of the business of the Consolidated Barb wire company whose officers are Henley, president; J. D. Bowersock, vice president; J. A.

Henley, secretary SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY. The Swiss National council has ap propriated 120,000 francs ($24,000) fox an exhibit at the world's fair of the Swiss watchmaking industry. It also approved subsidies for exhibits of other Industries, including female work in the manufacturing line. London manufacturers of musical instruments have discovered that the skill of their workmen has deteriorated since the abolition of the apprentice system, and recommend a return to it "with a view to raise the standard of British workmanship in tho trade" The deep sea explorations that have been conducted by the Austrian government in the eastern part of the Medi terranean show greater depths than any before recorded, and as a result, the great depression of this sea must be shifted considerably east from its for mer central position on the maps. Miss Ormerod, an English woman who is enjoying a high scientific reputation, bit the tail of a live triton some years ago in order to study the effects of the acrid secretion the animal gives out when angTy.

She was seized with spasms and convulsions that lasted sev eral hours, and a sore throat that lasted as many days. More shingles are being shipped to the east from Puget Sound than ever before. Twenty to twenty-five car loads go east every day from Tacoma alone. Last year the cut of shingles in western Washington was 500,000,060, and the sales about 435,000,000. This year the cut will reach 1,000, 000, 000, and the shipments 900,000,000.

N. Y. Post. The healthiest children are those whose mother has not reached 35 years. Those born of mothers between 35 and 40 years of age are 8 per cent.

weaker, and those of mothers of over 40 are ten per cent weaker. The children of aged fathers and younger mothers have, as a general thing, a strong con stitution, but if the parents are of the same age, the children are less robust. At the Royal gardens in Edinburgh Is a large Insectivorous plant, of the genus Roridula. The plant is a native of Tasmania. It is a branching bush, with filiform leaves, more slender than those of and, like the latter, furnished with glandular hairs, with which it captures flies.

The glandular hairs of the leaf of Drosera will not move on contact with inorganic matter, but will contract on a minute piece of fresh meat in the spacj of twenty sec onds. The insects most abundantly captured by Drosera are ants. It appears that what have been con sidered a "good," perfectly distinct species ox motns ana Duttertues, are ''wet season" and "dry season" forms of the same insect. Several so-called species, some described eyen by Linnaeus, have been shown by Mr. Jenner Weir to be such forms.

We thus have not only winter and summer forms, or seasonal varieties, but "wet season' and "dry season" varieties of forms. Thus "species" are more and more, as closer observations are made, becoming arbitrary, or artificial sets of individ uals. The lighthouse board has received information relating to a magnesium flash light, which, it is said, is going to prove far superior to anything which is yet known for lighthouse purposes. The light, which was devised by Prof. Dcnirm, oi uermsny, is pro duced by blowing a small quantity of magnesium powder with a current of air, which has previously passed through pumice stone saturated with benzine, into a benzine gas flame.

The flash produced is exceedingly intense. With the use of ten centigrams of magnesium powder a flash of 400,000 candle power can be produced, which can be seen on a clear sunshiny day at a distance of six miles, In Mindinac, the farthest southeastern island in the Philippine group, upon one of its mountains, the volcano Apo, a party of botanical and ethnographical explorers found recently, at the height of 2,500 feet above the sea level, a colossal flower. The discoverer, Dr. Alexander Schadenberg, could scarcely believe his eyes when he saw amid the low-growing bushes the immense buds of this flower growing like gigantic cabbage heads. But he was still more astonished when he found a specimen in full bloom, a five-petaled flower nearly a yard in diameter, as large as a carriage wheel, in fact.

Weighing these when opportunity served, it was round that a single flower weighed over 22 pounds. Pare aad Wholesome Commends to public approval the Cali fornia liquid laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs.

Got Drank and then Got Beatpn. Late yesterday a number of the inhab itants of the touehpart of east Lnwrenee got to drinking cider atd other iuch stuff. Of course along towards eyening some of the crowd got more than tbef could carry, or in other words were drunk. Among this number was an old man named Taylor.

Moore, chairman of the board of county commissioners, has, at the earnest solicitation of the republi cans of his district, consented to the use of his name as a candidate for re elect ion.
