A Wild Man.
Tiro people of J0.ikdaie, Tenn. are
yery much excited over the coming and
going of a veritable wild man, a com-,
pound-of Sampson and Esau. A party
of men in the street were surprised by
the appearance of a tall, broad-shouldered
man, naked from the waist up,
with hair unusually long on his head,
breast and arms. They fysg.ui to gu v
him, when he threw one of them over
an embankment and in a pitched battle
which followed whipped six of his per
seen tors. A dozen railroad men" tin
ally overpowered him and locked him
lip i:i a fruit -car. Within an hour he
jvas free, having burst the rope with
.which he had been tied and crushed
the side of the car as if it had been pa-
S;r. He escaped to the mountains,
o anxiety to search for him is dis
played. - r ! ik ii i ir-cz ,

We believe that this impudent Tel-

hands of Southern editors. His rav-
inars and iguorence do not really real
ly require any notice or refutation
rte is so ignorant of history that he
thinks Gen. Charles Lee, of the war of
Independence, was an American and of
Virginia Lres. He was English, nrd
of no kin. He even calls him a cow
ard, which is false. He was not a man
o admire, but he was a dashing, gal
ant soldier. The Northern slanderer
refers as follows the the name of
Let:
"The wretched name of Lee has been
a gloomy, conceited, disloyal shadow
in our national history, wher
ever petted and courted nnd trusted,
and it la time to have it forever oblit
erated' The American says with truth:
"The 'wretched name of Lee' has
been borne hy men singularly brave,
gifted, "high souied an patriotic. 'No
where can one nnm having in his veins
a drop of Robert E. Lee's blood be
found who was not the soul of honor

ENGLISH IN PORTS AN D EXPORTS.
The returns issued by the Loudon
Board of Trade show that during the
Washington, D. C, April 30. Mr.
Ralph Beaumont, chairman oflhe na
tional legislative cuuaiitte oa the
Knights of labor, h is written M tj.
YVm. McKinley, Jr., a letter criticising
the pending silver bill. After sum
merizing the proaiiiient features of the
bill, Mr. Ueaumont ;.sks:
On what ground of equity and jus
tice does the caucus of your party de
cide to confer legal-tender powers to
these certificates for the purpose ot
which the national banks d.sire to me
them and refuse the farmers and busi
ness men of the country the same priv
ilege.' i.r, to be more plain, who does
the caucus of your party decide that
the bankers may use these notes as
money, while by farmers and business
men they can only be used as notes in
the face of the law ?
"Mr. Beaumont then recalls the fact
that during the time trade dollars were
in circulation, although they contained
420 grains of pure silver, they were
not received by banks geiierally'exeept
at a discount of ten per cent; while at
the same time standard dollars which
contained only grains, being a
legal tender were received, of necessity,
at par. He then asks:
Vhat is to hinder under t his bill if it
becomes a law, these same bankers dis
criminating against this note as it is
only a legal tender for the purposes
above described and on w hat grounds
of equity and justice does your party
caueus say that these silver certificates
shall be legal tender for the rise of our
national, banks, while it is denied to
the mortage debter to meet his in
Ur.vt and principal to these same bank .
This bill creates
money for bankers and notes for the
tanners, hir, I insist that it .is not
notes that those farmers are in need
of, they are already burdened down
with notes. It is money that they want
with which they may 'liquidate" their
indebtedness to their bondsmen, and
notes that the bondsman may refuse to
take when tendered to him. I insist, sir,
that if you, as leader of the House, let
his measure pass, creating these cer
tificates, w ithout conferring w ith them
full legal-tender power to enable those
overburdened farmers to meet their ol
ligatious, you are guilty of committing
a wrong, and mark it, it is one that
both you and their party will have to
atone for in the coining congressional
campaign. These overburdened tillers
of the soil are in no mood to be trifled
with. They are desperate.
A Boon ti Wivas,
Having used "Mothers Friend" 1
A great many tales have boen told
about raHroad. engineers and tho queer
notions they have, about their ''pets,"
as they call tbein. Som? of these stories
look all right in print, but in reality
they arc puro inventions. Tho Globe
Democrat correspondent resolved to in
terview a number of railroad engineers
in view of tecaring their experiences
v.-ith locomotives, and to find out, if
possible, whether engineers, as a rule,
aro superstitious.
Creston is quitoti railroad town, and
is the end of a division. It is no trick
at all to meet a half dozen railroad en
gineers, and as they arc all good
fellowo, an interview is choerfully
granted;
Tom II is one of tho oldest and
most reliable engineers on the C, B. &
Q. railroad. Being asked concerning lo
comotives and thoir engineers, he said:
"A locomotive engine is, jto my mind,
a3 near human as any inanimate object
can be. Sometimes I think that they
are mores than half hitman. Of course
that's all fancy, thcugh. I havo driven
thi3 engine, No. 4ss, for ten or fifteen
years, and I know every inch of hor, and
knew how to manage the old lady. Some
days she gets cross and doesn't seem to
care about working. Then I have got
to coax he:-. Other days she'll feel bad
andtako on at a dreadful rate: then I'vo
got to doctor her carefully. Wo fellows
have a way cf tending to theso little
matters. As a general rule my engine
is in good trim and goes like a bird.
Sho acts like a human, -trembling with
excitement if there is a prospect for fast
running.
'"Do I believe in presentiments? Wei1,
I'll have to say yes. The night wc went
into a ditch near Malvern, smashing up
things Ladly. I told Jim (the lireman) a
half hour before the accident happened
that something was coming, because I
never before knew the engine to act so
quecr7" She didn't want to go, and when
I crowded her she pounded badly, seem
ing to -drag like, along the rails. When
the poor girl toppl?d over on her back
in the ditch I thought sho groined aw
fully. I believe an engino smells dan
ger ahead, somehow, and then goes to
tromblin1 and pounding. Leastwise
mine always did."
"Ever see any ghosts?'
"Well, can't sl-.v that I ever did but
orce. -Wc were coming vest from Ot
tumwa alKut midnight. It was moon
light, and I could see ahead pretty well.
Wc v.-r-bo nearing a place whore a young
girl had been killed while crossing tho
track on a little pony. As. wo came up
rapidly I noticed something white on
the track in front, and presently, to my
horror and astonishment, I saw tho
shadov.-y outline of a young girl. Sho
was holdinrr a little pony by the bridle
rein, and the animal was prancing with
fright. Both were square on the track.
I blew the whistle and turned on tho
air. At this moment the girl turned
her Tace toward the engine. A long,
cruel red Lear extended from her feve
hcad to tho chin. Tier cyo3 had a piti
ful look. But we couldn't have stopped
tho train for our lives. We dashed upon
them and went through tho apparition
like it was a cloud of mist. 1 felt a
chilly sensation as we passed, and my
blouse was damp, as if dev.- had fallen
upon it. That was the only apparition
I ever saw. Poor W ran, over tho
girl, and has never ceased to grievo
about it."'
It is almost amusing to note tho
myriad of queer fancies that engineers
have about certain things, yet, as far
es known, these fancies do pot debar
them from being brave and trustworthy
men. While they may kav'. many a
superstitious focr that an accident is
impending, it does not unnerve them,
and is more likely to keep them on a
sharper lookout. Many an engineer be
lieves that hi.; fate is only a question of
time, while others believe themselves
to be insured against accidents.
It is said that the engineer on one of
tho express trains that telescoped be
tween Creston and Ottumwa somo years
ago, when so many passengers were
killed, had vague forebodings of im
pending disaster for several days. It
was a feeling that he could not shako
off. His intuition proved correct, and,
through the blunder of an operator, a
horrible accident happened.

A WEEK TOO LATE.
ilcvf One of tho Hoy Dropped Five Dol
lars c:i an Uncertainty.
A younfr man about twenty-three
years of ago. dressed lilec a farmer, had
his feet on the car seat in front of him
and was reading a novel, when, accord
ing to the New York Stm, one of tho
boys went over to him and observed:
44I"ve just made abet of five dollars on
you."
"On me? What is it?"
I've bet five dollars that you will
suicide within a week. I've been watch
ing1 you very closely for the last half
hour, and all signs indicate melancholy
and despondency. Have you selected
any particular line of killing yourself
poison, the rjpe, drowning or hanging?"
4-Did you actually bet five dollars?"
anxiouslv asked the young man.
'I did."
"Pay if you lose?"
"I ll have to."
'That's too bad. I wish I could have
scon you lah.t week."
"W'hy last week?"
"Uecaueo I thon had the ager every
day right along two cows were sick on
my hands r:iy girl had gone dead back
on me, and I expected a windmill man
was going to beat me out of four hundred
dollars. Ldid kinder think of suicide."
4 'But now ?"
"All is changed. Lo -vs got well ager

first. Over this i.j
1 then cornea a gar-
vest which goes o.'
worn tho corset, r.:
men's whih i 1 tho French conception of
the divided shirt. A yoke 1; fitted
smoothly over tho hips, and to thia i
cowed the divided skirt, c a -a half o"
which measurea f ar.? yard . in v. idth end
is made in almost, infkiitesinu.l ac
cordion plaits. Over this, also sewed to
the lower edge of the yoke, fails another
skirt, of tiny accordion plait.;, and the:
is ten yards wide. Each of these skirt-:
i3 edged with tho finest of real lace,
yards upon yards of ii being used, and
each suit contains 1C0 yards of silk. The
material is exquisite in texture, and yet
is at onco Very light and very firm.
The Uaronesa Blanc, who wouldn't
let tho Queen of Khcba herself outdo
her in finery if sho could find out just
what her Majesty had worn, has similar
sets of this silk underwear, all trimmed
with the most costly lace. Sho h v.: also
a night-dress to match each cult in color,
and somo of these havo SI 00 worth oflaco
upon them. Felix, of Paria, who made
this finery, is a dressmaker whom many
consider quito tho equal of Worth, but
he isn't above making petticoats, etc.,
for anybody who can pay hi1: price.:, and
he makes nearly every thing in this
line that irs. Langtry wears.
Mrs. raran Stevens' Underclothes il
lustrate a number of the very latest fads.
Gho is one of those who have gone in
for blackness, blackness unmitigated,
beneath tho brilliancy of h'-r outer gar
ments. First, she wears whit can only
be adequately designated black silk
tights, though they aro simply tho or
dinary silk underwear of such rseoplo as
can afford it. Then black stockings, a
black undervest, all of tho samo. skin
tightness; then a black corset that is
all, Except a petticoat that is placed be
neath tho gown. Mrs. Frank Leslie has
for several yctira dressed in precisely
the same style.
