Slits tei oR EN I I eee A Statue of Solid Silver. Chicago, Hl., September 20.—A/} statue of Justice in solid silyer, 8 feet high. costing $50,000, and standing upon $250,000 worth of | gold compressed into a pedestal, will be one of the exhibits at the world’s fair from Montana. ‘The ped- estal will represent the largest lump of gold ever seen, and Sculptor R. H. Park will receive $10,000 for the model. The casting will probably be made in this city. The scales of justice are to be weighted with gold and silver cvin, and the casting made by April 20, 1893, by the most expert locksmiths in the country. Miss Ada Renan, leading lady of Daly’s company, who has just return ed from Europe, has consented to be the model for Mr. Park’s statue. | The Rev, G. H, Thayer, otf Bouron,b Ind., says. Both utyselt and wife owe our lives to Shiloh’s constm ption cure I by H.L. Tucker. “The prettiest battle I ever wit- nessed was between a Cuban and a} couple of sharks,” said Thos. C. Ridgeway, now at the Laclede. “We had reached Havana from New York and were lying perhaps half a mile from the docks awaiting the signal to get in. Several fruit peddlers had boarded us and them a swarthy, bare-legged young fellow who looked like a pirate. The pur- ser was standing by the rail, hold- ing his 5 year-old son in his arias, watching a couple of monster sharks that were hangipg about the vessel, when the child slipped from his grasp and fell into the water. The father plunged overboard and seized him, and the sharks at once made for the pair. The bare-legged young buceaneer dropped the fruit basket and went over the rail like a flasb. As the first shark turned on its back, the invariable prelude to biting, the Cuban rose and with a long, keen knife fairly disemboweled it. The other was not to be disposed of so easily. He seemed to realize that in the Cuban he. had a dangerous foe, and, in the language of the ring, sparred for,au opening . Seyeral of us began to blaze away at him with .our reyolvers, but the Cuban appeared, to, fear our bad marksmanship auore than the shark and begged us to desist... The pur ser and his child had been pulled on deck, and the combatants had a fair field. The Cuban dived but the shark did not wait for him to come up and changed his location. Fi- nally the latter advanced straight upon his antagonist, his ugly fin cutting through the water like a knife, turned quickly upon his back, and the huge jaws came together with a vicious snap; but the Cuban was not between them. He had sunk just in time to avoid the shark and as the latter passed shot the steele into it. The old sea wolf made the water boil, and strove desperate- ly to strike his antagonist with his tail, but the latter kept well amid- ships and literally cut him to pieces We made up a purse for him, and the next day the brave ragamuflin could have given Solomon pointers in the matter of gorgeous apparel.” —Globe Democrat. among Why will cure will give you Price 10c, §oc and $1.

The battle in Missouri between the democratic and repub- lican parties, aud the people’s party is not a factor in the case, except as | it may draw democrats away from their past affiliation und thereby weaken the democratic patty in its opposition to the republicans. Mr. Leonard has no possible hope for election nor has Gen. Weaver the slightest chance for securiug Mis- souri’s electoral vote. Their candi- dacy is hopeles of any other result than to harass and weaken the dem ocratic party by obtaining votes from that organization. Ihave no contest with the peo ple’s party of Missouri, unless it is to persuade the democrats who have joined it to resume their political connection with the party which can alone prevent republican misrule. More than this, I understand the people’s party to favor and bimetalism and bly opposed to the force bill. Upon these vital issues we were agreed and, while I cannot fayor the subtreasury nation up have named. great tariff reform scheme nor the pur- chase of the railroads by the gov- ernment, and other tenets of your party, I am anxious to avoid antag- onism with those who are friendly to the essential objects sought by all true democrats. Nothing could give wore unalloyed pleasure to the republicaus of Missouri than joint debate between speakers of the dem ocratic and people’s parties, and I do not propose to contribute in any degree to their enjoyment. My fight is with them. Very truly, G. G. Vest. There's a good deal of guarantee business in the store keeping of to day. It’s too excessive. Or too re- luctant. Half the time it means nothing.
