Referring to the work of the Revenue
office, am reminded of the suspicious
all the country people have of every
stranger they see. Having business up
near the mountains the other day, /
went to the terminus of the railroad
and then set out on horseback About
noon i saw log-cabin, and called to
ask for some dinner. After calling,
"Halloo! halloo" half-dozen times, a
white woman appeared at the door.
'Can get snack to eat and some
feed for my horsePn asked.
Dunno" she answered through her
teeth, which were tightly gripping her
snutf-stick.
''But I'm hungry; and see how fag-
ged my horse is" said.
"Well, | reckon l dunno about it,"
was the only reply,
You must try to give me little
bite urged. 'rll pay you literally
for it,
"Well, | reckon" And she nodded
her head toward the corn feed.
The cabin was of the kind found all
through this country-log, with only
one room, no windows, and only one
door. The fire furnished the only
means of heating and cooking, and the
kitchen utensils consisted of coffee
pot, a frying-pan, and one large iron
pot, in which she baked me some hard
biscuits, which, with some sorghum,
fried pork, and coffee, made my dinner.
Had ] remained for week, the only
variation would have been hard corn
bread in place of biscuit.
Looking at me sharply as munched
the bread, she exclaimed: ~ reckon
you're one of them thar revenue fellers,
beant youp"
"Why, what makes you think SOP" I
asked. "Do you take every man that
comes along for revenue manpn
'Pcars like that's jist about what we
do" she replied fur ii don't STAN
ter mortal reason that any man but
revenuer would be travelin' round this
kentry in SIGH weather an over SIGH
roads as there be now. Soldiers might
a done 1t in the war, but the war is
done fit"
"Do you have many revenue men
aroundP" asked.
al calculate there's some Of en-
skitterin' round Almost every day.
There war two men as got their snacks
here yesterday, an | jess knowed they
were revenuers the minnit sot eye OH
'em but they wouldn't own 70 IT, mo
more do you" -. su.u,,
Laughing at her little, she finally
ooncl,,ded She was mistaken, and Civ
inc sigh of relief burst out;
SWeII, there's one thing l Jess di
know for sartin; IL you beant revenue
fellar and reckon you bcant, you're
one othem thar gospeller goin' on q
preachin' tower"

Through the dusk thy golden antlers
In the melted silver shine,
Nowild deer in all the forest
Dash so swift through wooded pine,
No wild steed upon the prairie
Hath step so feet as thine
Gay rover Enoe
Golden antlcrs brightly flashing
Through the dewy vale Of moss
Light feet by the streamlet glancing,
Where the silver wavelets toss
Tender bud aud bloom thou'rt crushing
Where thy steps of lightning
Swift rover Gnoe.
Fleet thou art, but haunted ever
BY "a hunter brave and grand,
And the arrows madly flying
From 'heproud strength ofhis hand.
Seek the shadow of the cavern,
BY the starlight never spanned-
Tired rover Gnoe,
Flee across the river Ladon-
Wcsried by the hunter schsse,
Dark eyes frightened into pleading
With expressions silent grace,
Bid they light feet bear thee onward
Or the hunter wins the race,

of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, with setting his vicious dog
ON to worry cat which he (Pierce) shook
out of o tree, where it had taken refuge.
A number of witnesses were examined, and
the weight of the evidence was that Pierce
did not set the dog upon the cat, but that
he kicked the dog OF while he was worry
ing the cat. The case was dismissed.
