The farmer over iu Kansas that drew his money out of the bank seal- ed it up in a glass jar and hid the jar in a hay stack and waked up the uext morning to find the bank open aud the stack burned by lightning was out ot luck.

The democratic ship which sailed so majestically out of port last Nov- ember, amid the plaudits of the multitude and with colors flying,has struck a great vig snag in the shape of the financial question, while the tariff fiend smiles serenely just across the breakers of the turbulent sea of political economy.—Rich Hill Tribune. That is true. the democratic ship did strike a huge snag placed in the middle of the stream by the republi- can party.

L Ludwick 2nd lieutenant The company first came into prominence at the state en- campment at St. Joseph iu 1890, where the record they made for 4rill and discipline was not excelled by any organization there.

Perhaps the most noted characteristic is this company is their splendid discipline.
