Had AH She Vfanted of Planning
Ahead.
"There ia such a thing as planning too
far ahead," remarked Mrs. Hinman on
arriving at her brother's house after a
day's journey. "Now, here I am tired to
death. Had to wait over an hour at that
junction, where there wasn't even a box
to sit on, and my trunk nobody knows
where, just because I planned ahead so
far."
"Why, Aunt Martha, I don't see how
that can be! You always say"
"Yes, I know 1 do. But I never shall
again. A week ago yesterday I bought
my ticket, so's to be sure of it. I asked
carefully about every train and wrote
down all they told me—what time, what
towns I should pass through and all.
Then the day before I started I sent my
trunk to the station and got a check for
it, so's to l>e sure it wouldn't be left, and
this morning I got to the depot an hour
before it was time for the train to start.
"I felt as calm and composed as could
be. I only had a little package and my
satchel and umbrella and the box of
luncheon Mary fixed for me and my shawl,
so I didn't have nothing on my mind. My
ticket was in my pocketbook, and so was
the check for my trunk.
"Well, I saw the train standing there
with a ticket on it telling the names of
the places it was going to, and I read
them all over so's to be sure I was right,
and seeing Millville on it plain as print
I got right into the car and sat down.
"I hadn't set more'n 10 minutes before
the car filled up and started off. I thought
it was starting early, but I felt real
pleased to think I was in good season.
That train stopped more times an hour
than I should like to say, and 'bout noon
the conductor came into the car and
shouted out a great long tirade.
"I didn't pay any attention to it at the
time l>eeause I thought I hail found out
my whole course a week before, but as I
stood round there at that junction I re-
membered that he said something about
taking the back car for way stations.
"The whole story is that I took a train
that started 50 minutes before the one 1
ontfht to have taken, and by being so
well prepared for my journey I didn't
pay proper attention to things, and was
switched off on another road without
perceiving it.
"And by getting a chock for my trunk
it was sent on a (lay too soon, and I can't
get it till they've dug it out from under
a lot more baggage, and instead of com-
ing here in three hours it has taken me
6 hours and 40 minutes.
"Don't talk to me about planning
ahead again. It's been almost the death
of me this time."—Youth's Companion.

tives in congress. But these jour-
nals do not speak for the 20,000,-
000 of Americans who compose
the population of the northeastern
states. They are merely the or-
gans of a amall and selfish clique,
anti-American in word and act.
and Intent on advancing
the interests of Great
Britain and Grover Cleve-
land. The plain people of
the great industrial common-
wealths are sincerely anxious for}
the progress and advancement of ]
the whole nation and overwhelm-1
ingly in favor of the bimetallism
without which the west can not
achieve its normal and rightful j
prosperity. The most intelligent
and enterprising eastern men are
advocates of bimetallism, for they
understand that the east can not
prosper unless the western farmers
who are consumers of eastern
manufactured products are able to
purchase the goods they need for
themselves and their families.
Such talk as this supplemented
by the opposition of the eastern
democrats to an income tax or to
any material reduction of the tar-
iff may so anger many southern
and western men as to draw them
away from the democratic party.
It is an open secret that Mr.
Cleveland would prefer to have
the McKinley bill remain in force
j to making any concessions to the
silver men.

imposed on with cheap dollars.
But these silver and tariff reform
fellows will be dumb.
a sk h' daxoer.
Had Mr. Cleveland carried out
the platform in regard to stiver
coinage tlie greatest danger to tar-
iff reform would have l>een avoid-
ed. There is a probability now
that the protectionist republicans
w ill adopt silver coinage in order
to prevent tariff reduction.
Mr. Cameron and Mr. Quay,
both I'eimsylvanians, are talking
that way. Many other republi-
cans ;ire re.i ly to take up the
cause of silver in order to gain
votes for protection. The New
Y.ir» Press, which is considered
ex President Harrison's personal
organ, says:
A few eastern newspapers de-
voted equally to Biitish gold mono-
metallism and British free trade
have done their utmost to arouse
a sentiment of antagonism l»etween
the west and the east by continual
flings and taunts against the west-
ern people and their representa-
inconsis Tunc y.
Those cuckoo democrats who
are going around opposing the
coinage of silver because they
want "honest dollars'' are the
most inconsistent men in the
country. If the dollars proposed
to lie coined by the Bland bill
would not have been honest dol-
lars what about the silver we al-
ready havel They were to be ex-
actly like the dollars we now have.
If these men are honest about
their opposition they must favor
the destruction of the dollars now
-in circulation, for they are the
[ same that the Bland bill proposed
to coin.
Those papers who astonished
their readers with accounts of the
extermination of the Daltons don't
seem to give any of the after par-
ticulars.
Coxev will reach Washington
some of these days. We shall
anxiously watch to see what con-
gress will do. Grover no donbt
will tell them he has been busy
trying to keep them from l>eing
clark a no re ao an.
It is hard to tell which will suc-
ceed in doing the most injury to
the democratic party in Texas,
Judge Clark or Judge Reagan.
When that love feast was held at
Dallas it was thought that we
wonld have peace in the ranks.
But it seems that Reagan was not
satisfied with it and Clark looked
upon it as a Wall street victory.
The difference between these two
men is that Reagan is on one ex-
treme and Clark on the other.
Reagan has the advantage, how-
ever. of l»eing consistent, while
Clark has wobbled and changed on
it until nobody believes he has
any views on the subject.
In his opening speech in the
last campaign he was a great sil-
ver man. After the tight came he
was on the other side.
The only way for democrats to
succeed is to reject both him and
Reagan.
Old Dave ought to say plainly
whether he is a candidate or not.
The boys hate to dance uut into
the arena and then have to take it

" Dear Sirs: I wish to make a statement la

taken down with pains In my back and kidney

A Hole in the Ground 450 Miles
Around—Tne Grand Canon of
the Colorado Hiver in Arizona.
This titan of chasms is the
grandest and most sublime scene
in the known world. Nowhere in
human experience can the like be
found.
The beauties of this grand scene
have recently been portrayed by
America's greatest landscape
painter, Mr. Thomas Moran, in a
painting 6x12 feet, shown at the
World's fair and valued at £25,-
000. By special permission of the
owner to the Santa Fe route a
lithograph, size 29x42 inches, has
been made, which in all its details
is an exact reproduction of the
painting itself, and is worthy of
place and display on the walls of
any man's parlor.

HIGH—HAGKRMAN's l'ass IN'
the rocky mountains.
This is the point at which the
Colorado Midland division < f the
Santa Fe crosses the Continental
Divide in Colorado, and is 11,500
feet above the sea level. From
the summit one may look down
the mountain side and see five
parallel tracks, covering a distance
of fourteen miles, widening up the
mountain side. This, with the
spots of snow, furnishes a picture
hard to descril>e.
This scene of nature has l>een
painted by Mr. Charles Graham,
the renowned scenic artist, from
which a fine steel engraving has
l>een made, mounted on heavy
Bristol l>oard. size 29x54 inches.
This engraving is one of the most
attractive and natnre-true pictures
of mountain scenery ever executed.
These pictures are high-art ad-
vertisements of nature as it is, and
nothing shows that they are dis-
turbed by the Santa Fe route. A
limited number of these pictures,
unframed, may be secured at £1.50
for the lithograph and £3 for the
ngraving, and will be sent by ex-
press C. O. D. With either of
these will be sent an illustrated
pamplet on the Grand Canon of
the Colorado river, and an inter-
esting book on the subject of
a trip "To California and Back."
