no woman about their establishment.
They do their own cooking washing and
mending, They spend most of their
time in the mountains looking for veins
of silver and gold When the weather
is good they are off among the hills
In bad weather they remain indoors
and attend to household affairs
Chloride" tells how old Bedrock"
played quite an amusing joke on him
self the other day. He had two pairs
of pantaloons made off the same mate
rial. Both were good deal dilapidated
but Bedrock, y after viewing the situa-
ton, thought that out of the two he
might make one pair of tolerably SER
viceable pantaloong His plan was to cut
the legs off one pair for use In patching
the seat of the other.
He sat down flat upon the floor with
old pantaloons, scissors, needles, thread
and bees-wax, all lying about where he
could put his hands upon them without
moving
Old Chloride" was writing letter to
the folks at home back yander in Pike
and nothing was said for over an hour.
At last Bedrock cried out; There,
by the holy potter! there is as neat job
as could have been made by any woman
on the Comstock range
Got EN- mended p asked Chloride
looking up from his literary labors.
"At last thank heaven and a bully
good Job I've made of il, too Look
here ?" and Bedrock" held up to view
the repaired breeches in order than his
partner might see them. -.
"Ha ha! hal" laughed old Chloride.

Look for yourself, said Chloride
Bedrock" turned the newly mended
pantaloons this way and that to see what

down along the legs. He turned red

Bluford Wilson Testifies Again,
WASHINGTON, August

ASHlNGTON, August =.
Ex-Solicitor of the Treasury B!uford
Wilson again testified before the committee
on the st. Louis whisky frauds to-day.
His testimony was mostly in explanation of
the circumstances connected with the pack
ing of his private papers and their subae-
quent examination by the treasury officials.
His statement is substantiated by allidavis
of Messrs. Winslow and Dixon, private
secretaries of the witness, VINO packed the
papers. The substance of Wilson's state
ment has been pub ished aud in it lie en-
phatically denied that he has been 10 any
compromise by any Developments OF the
case. He explained his action from begin
ming TO end, and claims to have acted in q
perfectly honorable manner throughout.
Wilson stated that he had always been
opposed to the abandonment of the prose-
cution against Ward and Wadsworth. He
directly contradicted Revenue Agent Cav
lit who testified that he (Vllson) had ill.,
structed HIM to go for Bristow for the
presidency, and read letter accusing
Gavitt of indiscreet and disreputable con-
duct while in Illinois, on accom-, of which
he was withdrawn from the service. Var
yam, however, had admitted having told
Gsvtt that this damned Blaine business
must stop becsuse Gavit, devoted more
time to politics than to hn-ness while it
was contrary to the order OF both Var
yam and the commission for special agents
to interfere with politics either directly or
indirectly.
Q. by Mr.. Plaisted-How many special
agents were at Cincinnati in the interest Of
Bristow?
A.-Not one that can name now.
Q.-Was not Matthews there?
A.-Matthews was there; he was super
visor.
Q,-Were not all of the supervisors Of
the south there?
A. cannot recall any except as they
were there as delegates. Chamberlain OF
Georgia, believe, was there rs a delegate.
Those are the only gentlemen that / can
now recall as being there in the interest
of Bristow, while there were hundreds
of revenue agents there in the interests Of
other candidates. | believe there were from
80 to 100 there from the New York custom
house in the interest of Conklng, O. very
large number in the interest of Morton
