There will bo a meeting this afternoon of the township trustees to elect a justice of the peace and const s successors to W. F. Patton and J. L. The place of the meeting has not been made public, as J. F. Lutz, township clerk, says he doasn't care to have his office filled with a crowd of loafers and hangers-on, as it certainly will be if there is any suspicion that that is to be the place of mecting, but at all events the meeting is to be held, and the hearts of several men will be cither sadder or zladder before twenty-four hours have rolled around, T here are quite a number of applicants for the positions. Itis stated that A. T. Whittlesey, L. gen, J. M. Shea, churz and C. Wesley are willing to lay down their constitutional opposition to ofiice-holding and _accept_the position of justice of the peace. D. K. Dod- son is also a ca..didate for the ofice and as he is & member of the board of trustees he has something of an_advantage over the other candidates, but it is said he will not use his ad- Vantage uniess he thinks he caunot be elected without voting_for hunself. Barnett, who held the ofiice last year, is also a_candi date, but the fact_that he is a_republic while all the members of the board are demo- crats detracts considerably from his chances, although the trustees are all personal friends of his. A. L. Hendricks is mentioned as a possible candidate, but he will not say y- thing as to his aspirations. He refuses to tell his friends cither that he is a candidate or that he is not. His friends are working for him, however. There is not so much of a rush for the office of constable, as there is neither the money nor the glory connected with it that is wit the other. C. Wesley, C. O. Despaine, Charles Nicholson and Frank Covalt are in the field, however, and it 15 said t are other applicants, whose names will be submitted to the board this afterncon.

THE LARGEST CLOTHING HOUSE WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPL SINGULARITIES, A New York barber relates among other freaks of nature he has notived that of a man whose beard, as soon as it attwined a two days' growth, seemed to curl up at the ends nd tried to grow in. Two young Frenchmen, brother irjimailo by name, habe just returo the ancient kingdom of L s bring home with them some horses, which are not the de: domesticated specimens, like the v of the South American Pampas, but the real primitive wild type and the progenitor of the domesticated breed, Three of these were shot in the Dzungarian desert, just north of Guchen, after a long and difficuit chase, A queer specimen is exhibited at the San Francisco mining bureau, It is known as the man-faced crab and has a body not quite an inch long. It bearsa perfect impression of the face of a Chinese coolie; taissing link, with eyes and nose and mouth all clearly defined. “There are immense num- bers of these crawlinig imps in the inland sea of Japan, From out of the ‘‘chin” of the crab grow two arms on either side, while it has two legs about two inches and a half long on either side of the face, seemingly growing out of the back of the head. San Francisco has an ordinary-sized gray horse, with a most amiable castof counte- nance and with notting remarkable about him except the possession of a large and well shaped mustache. The latter is kept carefully trimmed and brushed by the owner of the hiorse. He is six years old and was born in Mexico, but so far as can be learned he is the only member of his family that has ever been blessed with either mustache whiskers. On the contrary, his father's lip was without suspicion of hair and his mother, of course, was a stranger to such & thing. He is simply a freak. A monkey-faced owl, which attracted much attention at the La Grange (Ga.) Zoo for the past year, now hasamate. Forsome time the cries of a wild bird were, heard about the court house at night and the boys set a trap 10 cateh him. About 9 o'clock one night cries of distress were heard coming from the neighborhood of the trap, and an investiga- tion showed that it had its steel jaws firmly fastened to the foot of the wild bird. It was immediately placed in the cage with the old favorite, and they are now as loving as cooing doves. They are a strange and uncanny pair of birds, aud are the only specimens of the kind ever seen here. The question is: How did the wild bird find out where the captive one wasi Gram- from b, in eastern Turki- vild ndauts of 1d_horses i Ko S o “That tired feeling” is entirely overcomo by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which gives a feeling of buoyancy and strength to the whole system. kil dihn g EOB ON AT WILL. ) The Fiying Flamingo of Hell Gate on the Swan of Avon. In his_panegyric upon Shakespeare, Colonel Ingersoll suid many pithy th ngs. Here are some of them: Most great men have had great mothers. Most great women have had great fathers. Most of the great are like mounta with the valley of ancestors on one si and the ‘I"L"'c sion of posterity on the other. Shakespeare knew little of Kings. He makes them say great things, talk as they should, not as they do. That is L‘roul sufficient to me that he did not now them. When men are prosperous they are in love with life. Famine and faith go to- gether. In disaster and want the eye of man is fixed upon another world. The real sustains to the ideal the same relation that a stone does to a statue. According to the realist, the wax that takes the impression is an artist. It is possible that Bacon left the best children of his brain on Shakespeare’s doorstep and kept the deformed ones at home? The fact that Bacon did not claim to be the author of the plays proves that he was not. Suppose a man .»1[& this epitaph for his tombstone in his will: Jere lies John Smith, inventor of the dog churn.” Is it po nventor of both the dog churn and ocomotive? Shakespeare’s best rises above Bacon’s ll\mal as a palace rises above a beggar’s hut. All art is of the same parentage. It is not enough tosay great things; amatic things must be done. The greatest compliment man ever paid to woman—**Eyes that do mislead the morn,” There is the same difference between ent and genius as between a stone mason and a seulptor, There i and characters that there is between springs and water, works.

Joke Played on a Man Who a College President. I heard a story the other day about the former assistant rector of one of the largest E 18 Now JTscopal churches in the city, r in Brooklyn Life. The gentleman in question isnow the pres dent of a college so far away that he can- not mind if I relate the incident. He was a jolly good fellow when he lived in a boarding house here and in his off hours was accustomed to join in with the other good fellows of the house ina friendly game of whist or a smoke. One evening whee he was out at ser vice two of the wags of the establish- ment remembered that it was an invari- able habit upon returning home to doff his roundabout vest and clerical coat, ible that he could have been’ the différence between types | puton an old smoking-jacket and en- case his feet in a pair of morocco slip- pers, which latter always occupied the same position on his bed-room floor pre- paratory to his coming. Accordingly they firmly nailed these slippers to the floor and awaited results in the next room. Presently the dominie returned. They heard him® moving about; they heard the thud of his shoes as th were taken off and thrown down, and then all was silence. They peeked cautiously in, and there beheld the young elérgyman standing in his slip- pers, his fuce white as a sheet, and a look of horror upon it, his eyes staring straight ahead. The sight was too much for them, but they managed to suppress their laughter and ask in a tone of amazement what the matter was. “*Matter,” he gasped, “‘thel matter enough boys; I'm paralyzed and can’t move hand or foot. For merey’s sake, help me.” The man did actually, such is the force of imagination, beliéve he was para- 1 for a moment or two, but he finally set 'em up 1n a manner appro- priate to his calling by buying cigars for the crowd. e L They Got it of Course.

A Peculiar Business That is Interest- ing and Said to Be Profitable. C. J. Jones of Garden City, Kan., known as “Buffalo Jones” because he owns a buffalo ranch in Kansas, is at the Casey hotel. Mr. Jones will remain in Omaha a few days until the attachment suit over the possession of six head of buffalo, now in Sheriff Boyd's possession settled. Speaking of the difficulty last night. Mr, Jones said to a reporter for Tue Bei his fellow Glassman, at Garfield Beach, Utah, had no right whatever to sell those buffalo. He had not paid for them, and in fact we never sold them to him; but the arrangement was a sort of partnership business in which we were to run 8 summer resort attraction with the buffalo and start a breeding ranch. These animall were shipped to him from our ranch in Kansas and we never intended that they should be sold to anybody. I think I will get the buffalo back and if I do I think I shall take them to Cul- bertson, Neb., and open a buffalo ranch. “I have been at Columbus for some time constructing an irrigation ditch. We shall open it pretty soon with a great blow- out. That is a great ditch. It will water about oue hundred thousana acres of land, and will be ready for use this yoor. Speaking of buffalo breeding, N Jones said: “The buffalois nota difticult animal 10 handle, They eat hay freely and can | very comfortably on it through the winter time. 1 have made some very inter- esting experiments with the buffalo. I have about half a dozen new and distinct breeds of cattle all coming from crossing the buffalo with the Galloway the Durham, the Poled Augus and the Texas, cattle. The breed that I get from a cross be- tween the Galloway and the buffalo is a splendid animal. 1" have Galloway-buffalo calves only one year old that weigh 900 pounds. The half-breed has a much more even coat of har and the skins make splendid rugs and robes. For beef they are excellent. Iu crossing the buf- falo with the Texas cattle the half-breed has long slim horns, almost transparent and very beautiful.” finely Made: fully Wé{réh‘ <.
