Captain H. L. Bailey is keeping close by the fire these days. A change from a tropical climate to ten degrees below zero is too much for most constitutions. Frank Lytle, of Hartford, was here last week.

It shoots 10 times, is sighted for 50 yards, but gauge gives range up to 500 yards. It is automatic; the recoil ejects the empty cartridges, reloads and recocks the hammer, and thus all that is necessary is to pull the trigger as fast as one wants to shoot. It is easily loaded, the cartridges being shoved into the chamber of the gun from a clip. The holster is arranged to use as a stock to convert the arm into a rifle. Money spent for Morton's Cigars is kept in circulation.

The Old Democracy. The Kansas City Journal does not feel that aversion to affiliation with democrats which it desires to see populists exhibit. With apparent pride the Journal recalls the fact that Mr. Cleveland's secretary of the treasury, Mr. John G.

Carlisle carried out the republican financial policy and did precisely that which no secretary of the treasury since him would have done in a crisis. The above admission contains the gist of the whole contention over the party business. Populism said, thetwo old parties are one, they said, goodby, old party, good-by. That meant good-by to the old party of Cleveland and Carlisle, which on our cardinal principle stands precisely with the republican party. Mr.

Bryan and ris followers at Chicago said good-by, old party, good-by, and the democracy of Hill and Cleveland went where it belonged, into the republican camp; true, the Hillites are nominally back in their old places. and just now it is a game of "Lady or Tiger" with the odds against the tiger.
