A Kojal Gifs for ioxat YouDg Lady- If anyone has been lead to believe by false statements from envious in c.ividua!s, tnat tho bicycle nica we are to eive away is an inferior ma chibe, such an impression will bo dis pelied by a statement cf the facta. The wheel which we shall present to the most poputar young lady will bo the laditfc' special, 1834 pattern, made by the Kenwood Ck mpacy of Chicago, whose machines arc the highest grade and highest priced bicycles made today. Tea Kenwood is not so well known in this locality as soma of the older and raore extensively advertised bicycles, but by those who have examined them from a mechanical and practical standpoint they are pronounced unequaled in most essential nartieulars. At the World's Columbian Exposition where the best bicycles of the world were shown, tho Kenwood received the highest hocor3, receiving five gold medals and five diplomas for superior bicycle excellence. The gold medals (more than awarded any othjer were for the best tire, be i rim, best valve, be3t frame for ladies' wheel, best frame for road racer The mechanical experts, Thurston, of Cornell University, and Irving Miller, of Chicago, made the examination.

This wheel embraces all the more advanced ideas in bicycle constrnc-tion which have been adopted by the best makers both in thia country and Europe, together with special features such as the Kenwood patent pneumatic tire, of the well known clincher pattern, triple safe-guard valve, making it the most desirable, up-to-date wheel in the market. The only objection which has ever been offered to this wheel is its extreme lightness. We are authorized by the agent, Mr. Hayne, to offer $25.00 for satisfactory proof that any rider of any Kenwood Wheel in Douglas county in the past three years, ha3 sustained a puncture of his tire or has expended one penny in repairs which was due to imperfect material or poor workmanship. The New York Herald gives the following concerning Dr.

Otto Von Mul-ler: "A Noted German Surgeon acd Practitioner. Dr. V. Muiler of the government sanitary department at Wildungen, Germany, and formerly professor of the University of Mos-cow, Russia, has opened a medical dispensary at Kansas City, Kas. "Dr.

Muller was commissioned to the World's Fair by the German government and will remain hore a year on leave, possibly to subsequently locate here permanently with hi3 family. He carries letters of recommendation from the late Gen. Graut and from Patrick Collins, ambassador to England. "Dr. Muller speaks 16 languages most of them, including French and Italian, fluently.

For a number of years he has been at the head of the government hospital at Wildungen and in connection with this general practice has served his native country as an army surgeon." The doctor makes his weekly visits to Lawrence every Satubday. His headquarters are as the House and Leis' Drug Store Eldridge To The Public. I am in the real estate business.

LAWRENCE, MA EC II 15 Another te vote oa the teignor-age bill yesterday encourages the belief that it will pass the eenate. Senator HrLL ia a democrat on silver, but it looks as if he is getting away from democratic tariff reform. "Pure water find cheap gas" will not be tho platform of the republican city ticket, unless the convention desires to be humorous. The Kansas City democrats have split and nominated two candidates for mayor, but one of them will be elected over the republican nominee.

It did not require much time for the city council to introduce and pass a liquor ordinance, but it takes all the time there is for the consideration of a gas ordinance, which is of material importance to our citizens. The Kansas Immigration Company, just organized and chartered, has al ready worked the press of the state for several thousand dollars worth of free advertising. Kansas papers can scarcely resist booming their own state, even if ihey advertise some land agency in doiug eo. Ed Hoch is characterized as clean man, antrum ras'ed by the ma chine," aod for this reason lie will not be in the republican gubernatori al race, although H8 may imagine otherwise. He has been led into the trap by tho flattery of those who de sired to side-track h'B stit9 printer boon.

The distinguished linguist of the Topeka Journal says that "the boys and girls in the Girard High School have got just far enough along in their Latin to write notes ending 'con amore" Girard Latin must be strictly up to date if con amore is in its vocabulary. The Journal's scholar muse have been taught Latin by Dago. It is stated that six of the nine re publican congressional committee men are pledged to carry out Fun ston's instructions and call a conven tion under the Crawford county sys tem. Such a plan would secure the Failure a re-nomination, since he would, undoubtedly secure more votes than any other one candidate; but it would raise a terrible roar. How ever, Functon is accustomed to roars and does not mind them if he has sue ceeded in carrying his point.

In speaking right out against the convention fixers the Abilene Re flector says: "That republican who has the audacity to ran up and down Kansas asserting that he or any of his friends are as good as nominated or will be nominated by acclamation, is lifeely to get struck right, between the eyes on the day of the state convention." If thfere is danger of such a casualty wo would advise our evening, contemporary, the Journal, to wear a base ball mask, for it is continually shouting "acclamation." PERSONAL AND IMPERSONAL. Queen Christina, of Spain, is the only sovereign who has been up in a balloon, a feat she performed on the impulse some years ago, when she happened to drive near a tield. in which ballooning experiments were made. No crowned head has equaled her highness. One of the most valuable collections of autographs in this country is that owned by Mrs.

R. C. Watterson, of Massachusetts. These autographs were accumulated by Dowasfer Lady Byron. One of the MSS.

is a bit of verse supposed to be in the handwriting of Dean Swift. The baud of adventurous women have had a new recruit Mrs. Little-dale, accompanied hy her husband, started from Constantinople in January last for a trip across Asia, Kashgar, the Pamirs, Tibet and western China, at last arriving in China with safety. The marvel is that she is not going to write a book. Prince Bismarck's historical courier, Herr Leverstroen, known throughout Germany as the Black Horseman, died some time ago.

For miny years he delivered all the chancellor's dispatches, and his figure and occupation were known to every street gamin in Berlin. When Bismarck fell, Leverstroen also retired to private life. Laboucliere, the English radical, is a man of the world keen, unbelieving, hard as nails; a mocker at everything, including himself a "flaneur" of the "flaneurs," a boulevardier of the boule-vardiers with a sauntering gait, a slow, drawling and wearied voice, and an eternal cigarette. His laziness is purely physical and superficial; mentally he is the most active, persistent, tireless of men. President Peixoto, of the Brazilian republic, was for years a schoolmate of W.

C. Cronemeyer, president of a manufacturing concern in Demmler, Pa. Mr. Cronemeyer is a German by birth and was educated with Peixoto in the old German town of Detmold. The Brazilian was twelve years old, but exhibited even then traces of a born leader of men, while he was a youth of exceptional mental gifts.

The story is told of a parent who had become a recent convert to hypnotism. His small son, who had heard him discussing the subject, asked what hypnotism was. He did not answer, but with the imperative manner of a professional mesmerist, said: "Now, Jimmie, do you hear? That is not a clock, but a dickey-bird, chip, chip!" Jimmie turned and fled precipitately, crying: "Mamma! Mamma! Papa's got the jim-jams!" Argonaut a i auuiuuci ui laiujas A. D. Manning of Buck Creek, has mov ed to the Alfred farm.
