his head.
There, close to him, stretched out in
an attitude OF repose, lay full grown
panther! Carefully and silently the boy
drew his rifle forward little more.
What If the cap should not explodeY
What IL the rifle was not properly load
edY He raised right arm gradually un-
til the muzzle was within an inch of
the panther's ear. He pressed the trig-
ger, and at the instant OF discharge he
was on his feet with his hunting knife
in his hand ready to fight for his life.
But there was no need of the knife now.
The bullet had crashed through the
brain of the prostrate beast, killing him
on the spot. Jacks danger was over;
but even now, whenever he tells the sto-
ry, he says he can feel the cold sweet
gather on his flesh as 1t did that terrible
morning In the Adirondack woods,
when he lay in bed with the panther.

gyr One ofthe most cowardly acts q
man can do is to commit suicide. In
about two-thirds of the cases loss of
money or employment, or unrequited
affection, suggest, the rash act. Forth
with the poor deluded victim proceeds
to fill himself with whiskey to give him
nerve, and makes the fatal leap into
eternity. If men who are to-day labor
ing under encouragement for losses
have seen the hard earnings of years
swept awsy-will interview any twenty
of their prosperous neighbors, they will
find that such has been the history of
men through all the generations. The
darkest days will brighten, the heaviest
gloom will be lifted from the most de-
pressed soul if like man he will make
the contest.
Nay, even more often the trials and
disappointments of life, so grievous to
bear at that time, are the best perfecters
of character, and do more to develop
the true man that any amount of pros
perity. 1t pitiful that, in q land of
plenty, there shonld be found so many
who are unwilling to live their allotted
days, and pay the debt as best they can.

ONE of the dealers In pork of our
" city, is the butt Of the joke of the

The other day he visited his hog lot,
on the other side of Timber Greek, and
found that his porkers" had made a.
trail across the ice and were calling on
their neighbors u. b. Lynn's hogs), on
this side of the creek. M. w. drove his
property back across the ice, and as hs-
drove he pondered; and brilliant idea
crept into his ingenious head. He'd
stop that nonsense, he would ProeuT-
ing an AK he cut hole some six or eight
feet square right in the trail and then
retired to see what Mr.. Hog would do
when he reached the supposed barrier.
A large fat squealer," one of his best,
took the lead. The dealer smiled bland
ly until he saw the unsuspecting hog
disappear " a la model Baptist, through,
the hole. The smile suddenly changed
to look of despair, and, snatching his
hat from his head, rushed down the
bank and across the ice shouting C Hold
on there Hold on, you id Foolsl
hold on To cap the climax, he was
afraid to leave, fearing that the entire
stock would go down, and felt that il
was his christian duty to stand there
and wait until the hole should freeze
over; all of which he nobly did, and
now he says :" a hog amt got no sense
anyhow. y Winfield Telegram.

Common Sense in Driving.


Most men over drive. They attempt
too much, ana in 50 doing distract or
hamper the horse. Now and then. you
ind horse with such vicious gait
thst his speed is got from him by the
most artificial processes, but such horses
are fortunately rare, and hence the
style OF management required cannot
become general. The true way is to let
the horse drive himselt-the driver doing
little but directing him, and giving him
that confidence which horse alone gets
in himself when he feels that guide
and friend is back of him.
The most vicious and inexcusable style
of driving is that which so many drivers
adopt. viz, wrapping the lines around
either hand, and pulling the horse
backward with all their might and
main, SO that the morse, in psint OF fact,
pulls the weight back of him with is
mouth, and not with his breast and
shoulders. This they do under the i'm
preston that such dead pill is needed
to STEADY" the horse. This method of
driving we regard as radically and super
latively wrong. II would tax the in
genuity OF hundred tools TO invent
worse one. The fact is, with rare ex>
ceptions, there should never be any pull
put upon the horse st all.
A steady pressure is allowable, prob.
ably advisable, but anything beyond this
has no justification in nature or reason !;
for nature suggests the utmost possible
freedom of action OF head, body and
limbs, in order that the animal may at
tain the highest rate OF speed and rea-
son certainly forbids the supposition that
by the bits, and not the bresst-collar, the
horse is to draw the weight attached to
it. In speeding cur horses we seldom
grasp the lines with both hands when
the road is straight and free from OBJ
structions. The lires are rarely steadily
taut, but held in easy pliancy, and by
this motion communicate courage and
confidence to him. We find that by this
method our horses break less and go
much faster than when driven by men
who put the old-fsshione steady pull
upon them.

The s,omach Cannot be FrcIsh,cd

With greater trash than violent drastic pur>
gstive. True, such medicine relieves cOnsti-
patton for the time, but at the expense of
great injury to the intestinal canal, which it
both infames and weakens, thus uniting it
for the performance OF its proper functions.
Widely different is the action of HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters, tonic aperient which pro-
duces effects prompt, indeed, but never vio-
lent and cOnvulsing. The purity ofits botanic
ingredients, its unobjectionable flavor, its
genial influence upon the mind, and the
thoroughness Of its remedial action i'm cases
OF constipation, liver complaint and dyspep-
STA, combine to render it a most desirable
family specific. 1t increases both physical
vigor and substance, tranquilizes and invig>

of the whites. Where they have been
in contact with the best OF the whites
the relation has been pleasant sno profit
able. This is strikingly illustrated by
the result Of the actions of Secretary
SchuIz in August. 1877, based upon law
and treaties allowing the people OF Okla
homs 10 employ white skilled labor.
The consequence is that vast tracts have
been brought under cultivation, school
hou es Snd churches butt, and new
era vi progress inaugursted. We be-
Iieve thar the organisation OF the terri-
tory OF Oklahoma by congress is a neces-
sity, growing out of progressive civilizs.
ton, and an act OF mercy, owing to the
exposed snd unprot eted condition OF the
Indian. we therefore recommend that
members of the association strive in
every way lawful, henorsble and consist
ent with treaty slipulStions to effect this
end"

Electric Light at the Capitol.

The arrangements for lighting the
capitol building with a new electric
light are nearly completed. The ex-
pertinent has already been made in the
nall of the house of representatives, and
single light placed on the front row of
the reporters gallery and over the
speakers chair made the whole half so
light that print could be easily read at
the points furthest from the burner.
The plan is TO place four lights in the
hall, and it is now believed that they
will be very great Improvement upon
the present arrangement of gas burners.
The electric machines have been pur-
chased under the appropriations for light
ing the interior of the building, and it is
in contemplation to place another in po-
sitinn for the purpose Of supplying q
light OF vast power upon the top OF the
dome. 1t is claimed by the inventors
that burner can be constructed there
which shall have very sppreciable
effect upon large srea of the city. 1t
is claimed that, with the steam power of
the heating and yentilsting apparatus
in each wind of the building, q dynsm O.
electrict machine of $4,000. candle
power can be run. 81
