sArURDAY,s SHOOTING.
What Paimesville's NimrOds did on
Decoration Day.

9
Decoration Day.
There are eight men in Painesville
who ought to be denounced as traitors,
for the reason that they lack all reverence
for the ssNa Nation's Dead" and prefer to go
trap shooting at harmless pigeons to dec
Grating soldiers graves. And, mirabile
dictu, the majority of them are Republi-
cans.
On Saturday last these eight men with
rebelllous instincts engaged in pigeon
shoot on the grounds near Pratt's tooth :
pick factory. The day was bright and
despite the apparent desecration, the
scores show that the shooters did some
good work. The birds were old and in
good condition, most of them flying very
strong. 1t is said that some of the Cleve-
land and Norwalk sportsmen are soon to
arrange for tourname ent here. In view
| of this an effort is being made to secure
the Driving Park and to erect upon il q
club house for the accommodation o.
| those taking part. 1t is to be hoped that
| the scheme will be successful. Below
we present the score of Saturdays

ABOUT THE BAND.

On Decoration Day every one was
pleased with the fine Music OF the Lane
Cornet Band, who came at the invitation
Of the Committee to furnish music. But
in the interest of our home talent we have
"a word to say. AS is usually the case
our home ba nd was asked to play gratis
They agreed to play providing the Com
mittee would agree to hire them on the
Fourth the price being $50. In reply they
were told that this could not be done by
anyone at that time. The band then ask.
ed $40 for Decoration Day and $40 on the
Fourth. This was refused because the
Decoration Day Committee could n OF af-
ford to pay band. In confirm alton of
this fact they engaged the Lane Band at
u cost of from fifteen to twenty dollars.
Our band is hard working and obliging
and it is no more than just that they
should have their share of home engage
ments when any money is dispensed.
AS the money paid for the Lane Band
was more than that asked by the Paines-
will Band the arrange ment made seemed
rather the result of a desire to slight our
band than of impecuniosity.

The Mexican and His Lasso.

A South Texas correspondent writes
as follows: An accomplishment of the
cowboy. and one in which, TO be sue
cessfut he must invariably be an adept,
10 roping" cattle, or horses for that
matter, with lasso. 1t is an ordinary
half inch hempen rope, usually sixty
feet long, and provided with what farm
ers call "slip-knot." The Mexicans
often use lariat," which is even
stronger. and by hand made OF rawhide
tnongs' The cowboy, when about to use
ms lasso, secures one end TO the strong
and substantial horn of his saddle,
which Is itself secured TO the animal he
rides by two strong broad girths of hair
from The cows tail. With the bride
reins in his left hand and the rope coiled
up in his right, the cowboy gallons off
into the prairies and directs his course
toward some horse or COW he desires to
catch. At sight of him they likewise
set of at gallop, and the race continues
until the pursurer has gained sufficiently
upon them to use his rope. The coil is
mt length suddenly thrown into the air,
and so accurately has the rider calcu-
lated time and distance that, although
bis own animal and the one he is pur-
suing are dashing along like locomo-
tive, the moose descends On the head or
around the horns of the fleeing cow. So
well trained is the cowboys horse that
the latter instantly stops in his career
and pulls back. The cow has also been
halted and secured, the rider and his
morse experiencing a profound Jolt to
which, however, they are not bv any
means strangers. A horse is caught in
the same manner ms a COW, only that
the cowboy throws the rope around the
neck instead of the horns, as in the case
OF the cow.
But cattle and hsrses are not the only
subjects OF the lasso, which is and has
long been used by Mexican bandits and
highwaymen in assaulting and killing
or robbing unwary travellers on the Rio
Grande. For this PURPOSE the stealthy
mug generally conceals himself in a
thicket of chapparel or behind n grove
OF cactus (prickly pear. which here
grows higher than mans head) near
by the roadside. In this position, he,
panther Ii Ike, awaits the approach of his
victim, who comes riding along totally
unapprehensive of danger. All at once
away goes the lasso high in the air, nor
does the wayfarer have time to recover
from his surprise before the fatal moose
has been SO tightly drawn around his
throat that his breathing is suddenly
stopped, he is dragged from his horse in
the death agonies and soon all is over.
The thug first secures the horse, il val
liable enough, then waits till the last
struggles are past, then quickly rifles
his pockets, drags the corpse into the
chapparel, and rides away on the dead
mans horse.

Queen Christine.

The Queen of Spain's apartments at
the Castle of Pardo are thus described !:
The rooms are eight in number. The
first we enter is hung in white satin,
with hand embroidered blue flowers; /;
the furniture, of Louis XIV. style, is
upholstered in rich blue satin; in a
corner is remarkable fine cabinet of
rosewood, ornamented with old Sevres
panels OF great beauty. This room
leads into a smaller boudoir, style of
the first French empire, hung in yellow
satin, with furniture of the same. In n
recess of n widow is a small equestrian
statue OF the king when he was only four
years old. The small mite, looking very
frightened, is holding the bride in one
hand and is saluting with the other.
The third room is the queens music
room. The hangings are red and gold,
two grand pianos occupy two corners,
and curves and knick-knacks abound.
The queens study or workroom, comes
next. IL opens upon large terrace,
which, in summer. is arranged as
garden. 1t is white and gold. the furni-
ture being old Dutch, with inlaying col
ored flowers. Then comes the bedroom,
which is n very marvel of splendor and
luxury. 1t required no less than eight
HunuTtu yaTuS Oh stun lot lNe nanglngs,
which are of ecru Lyons silk, broche,

The furniture is Louis xvi; in a
corner is n table in old Sevres; in the
middle of the room is the bed. in black
wood, with embossed black ornaments;
at the head two reclining nude figures
support n shield. upon which is em-
blazoned the queens monogram in red
upon blue ground; n canopy, in en-
bossed brass, supports the curtains.
which are thick silk, of the same design
as the hangings. The bathroom, which
is close by, also opens into room
specially reserved for the queens attend
ants, and near the bedroom also is the
dressing room, the furniture of which
is silver pine, the walls being hung with
ecru silk. with blue flowers.

An Old Stage Drivers "reminiscences.

driver, from which we take the follow

wives, husbands, daughters or sous
were sick nign unto death. and they
fussing and fretting because the cattle
didn't get over the road faster, and
blaming me because there was so many
hills to climb. / remember one man
who had a sick wife at house on the
road. and he heard just afore | started
from Boston that she was dying. We
had light cargo that trip, and the man
kept urging me TO go faster, he was so
anxious. / wac driving as fast as /
dared to send the cattle. cause il was
pretty hot day. and told him so. He
asked me how much my horses were
worth. / said about seventy dollars
apiece. Horses were cheap in those
days. lie Just pulled his wallet right
out and counted out two hundred and
eighty dollars. handed il 10 me, and
said he wanted to buy them. but that he
must drive. Well, as / could get as
good ones for the money. and seeing as
how worked up he was, just put the
money in my pocket and handed the
lines to him, telling him to 90 ahead if
he wanted TO, and didn't he go? He
just kept the long whip-lash tickling
the TANKS OF the leaders, all the tim
we was on level ground, and the only
breathers they got was when they
climbed hill. We finally reached the
house his wife was stopping at about
three hours ahead of time; he found her
alive, and rushing from the house made
me n present of the team. | refused

fellow was urging me to drive faster
and see that he and the girl was kinder

herself coaxed me, with tears in her
eyes, that began 10 drive faster. Then
they told me they were running away to

The Value OF Worn Gold Coins.

Inquiries are daily made at the
United States mint as TO the least cur

vided THAT gold coins reduced in weight

Z Dog Crazed by Grief.

A family who formerly lived near
Providence emigrated to Kansas about
n year ago. leaving behind them an old
dog named Dash. Dash had been
brought up in the family from puppy
hood; he had kept faithful watch every
night In winter and summer weather,
and he was deeply attached TO his mas
ter. Dash was not ugly In disposition,
and he Disseminated instinetively be.
tween the wandering reprobate, whose
presence in the neigbborbood was dis
agreeable, ifnot dangerous, and the SUBJ
stantial citizen out for walk or drive.
Whether indifference or lack of means
caused the proprietor of Dash 10 go
away without him Is not known. After
his masters departure Dash seemed TO
be changed dog. Although kindly
treated bya relative OF his former owner,
he grew moping and despondent. lie
would sometimes run down the road 10
meet an approaching team, and look up
anxiously nc those in It, as IL expecting
TO see n well-known face. When spoken
70 in a plying tone, or patted and ca
ressed. he would turn up his mild eyes
with mute and appealing glance. and
his tail would wag in hopeless, forlorn
way. Al length 1t became evident that
the dogs brain was affected. Was he
cr.szed by grief, or was he In the imbe-
