eroncl,o Sam.

Speaking about cowboys, Sam
Stewart, known from Montana to Old
Mexico as 'Broncho SAM" was tho
chief. His special delight was to
break tho warlike heart of the vicious
wild pony Of the plains and make him
Tho servant Of mnn.
There may be joy in Il wild gallop
across tho boundlcss plains, in the
crisp morning, on the back OF Il feet
brorcho; but when you return with
your ribs sticking through your vest,
and find that your noble steed has re-
turned to town two hours ahead OF
You, there is tingc Of sadness about il
all. Broncho Sam, however made Il
specially Of doing all the riding him
self lie wouldn't enter into any com
promise and allow the horse to ride
him. in Il reckless, moment he offered
to bet 80 that he could mount and
ride wild Texas steer. The money
was put up. That settled it. Sam
never took water. This was true in II
double sense. We'll, he climbed the
croBs-bar of the corral gate, and asked
the boys 10 turn out their best steer
Marquis OF bloomsbury rules. As
the steer passed out, Sam slid down
and wrapped those paronthetical legs
of his around that high h-hcadod broad-
horned brute, and rode him until tina
feet animal fell down on the
buffalo grass, ran his hot, red tongue
ont acros the blue horison, shook his
tail conynlsiye!y, swcllcd up sadly aud
died. 1t took Sam four days to walk
back. A $40 bill looks rs large to
me as the starspanglcl banner, some
times, but that avenue Of wealth
had not occurred 10 me, I'd rather
ride a buzz saw at ~ day and found.

When Il man OF prominence, with
the expectation of bcttering himself
in the possession Of worldly goods,
makes n change in location for pursu-
ing his avocation, he generally expects
u kind and beneficial recommendation
from his home newspaper, and gets it.
When the brightest sunshine OF social
light radicates ut the home of Mr. this
or that one, the newspaper man is cx-
pocted to shiuc forth with personal
mention ofthe affair, and he complies.
When the shadows of grief or trouble
darken every window Of Mr.. That one
or This, the editor is expected to put
on mourning. and say good and tender
words appropriate for the occasion, and
no journalist of merit will do other
wise. The newspaper man has to be
being who can laugh, cry, whistle,
sing, dance. and be pious, nil at the
same time, and il he fails in any one
particular he's unfit for the position
he tries to fill No newspaper nan
should ever get mnd no matter what
names he is called, or how innocent of
charge made against him. Tho local
editor needs only ono thing (f born
with good senso) and that is mind Of
his own, and he should. exercise the
right Of using it at all times. No jour
nalist will carry personal difficulty in
to print, any further than justice
would demand, any one who takes OK
ception to q fair newspaper article, and
undertakes to squclch the truth by
n Withdrawal Of patronage loses his
purpose, for what displcascs one tick
les another. The gap made in pa.
per by one is never noticed it is filled
with business Of another. But the
business man never allows the '.othcr'
man to fill his gap he keeps it filled

BAD FOR BUTLERITES,

ernOr, Ineligible to the Omce-An
 ElectOr of New York State.
 It now appears that James L. Curtiss, the nominee of the Greenback Labor party of the State of Connecticut for Governor, is 8 citi- zen of the State of New York. In New York his voting had been done for years and the voters list of Stratford does not now and never has borne the name of James L. Cur tiss. The constitution of the State respect ing the office of Governor provides that ''no person who is not ar elector of this State and who has not arrived at the age of thirty years shall be eligible, etc." MT. Curtiss not being elector of the State of Connecticut is therefore ineligible to the off.e. But it really don't make much difference

Last evening about 10:45 o'clock fire was discovered in haystack belonging to Charles Nichols, resident on Cherry Ann street, and an alarm was sounded from box 521. Engine No. 6 responded. The neighbors carried pitchers and pails of water and tried to check the flames, but the hay burned rapidly and was entirely consumed The main efforts of the engine company were directed towards saving MT. Nichols barn. which was near the haystaek. They were successful, as the barn was not damaged. The barn is on one side of the Hamden line and the house on the other It is supposed that the fire was incendiary.

Horse Notes,

At Fleetwood on Wednesday Frank Work k's crack team, Edward and Dick SwiveIler, were driven an exhibition mile by John Mur- phy. They were in good trim and, as usual, kept their wonderful pace without break. The first quarter was done in 0:332, the half in 1:0714, the three quarters in 1:4234, and the mile in 2:18. It would be an interesting event to have Messrs. Work and Rockefeller give their teams another joint trial at Char ter Oak Park.
 w. c. Daly has purchased the well-bred black Ally Eulogy for $1, ,25O. The purchase was made after the Ally had won the selling race of one and one-eighth miles at Sheeps- head Bay against a strong field of twelve horses.
 Daly's recent purchase, Preciana, won the two-year-old selling race on the 9th, at Sheepshead bay. She was entered at $1, 100, and MT. Daly had to pay $1 ,605 to retain her, which was $5 more than the purse came to. this instance to swallow the same kind of medicine that he is so fond of administering to others. Bills contortions while swallow ing the dose are painful to behold'' Which means that Da1y is in the habit of bidding winners in selling races up to high figure, so that the owners have to pay most of the purse to retain the horse, if they care to re- tain it. Plunger Walton won $6 900 on the lilly in this race.
 Jim McGowan, under his new name Boarke Cochran-won the only three events for which he has appeared at Sheepshead bay since his change of name and ownership.

Found FIoatIng Among the Lilies.


 A little girl, naIaed Nellie BrothweH, went out hunting for lilies in Sillimans pond, Old Mill, near Bridgeport yesterday morning, when she discovered the body of man float ino in the water a short distance ahead of the boat. She at once put back and called to a domestic who was standing on the bank to inform her fatherof the discovery. The remains were taken in charge by Medical Examiner Downs and were not identified. The body had apparently been in the water several days Deceased was about five feet in height, forty years of age and the left leg was deformed. He was dressed in drab plaid shirt, dark pants and heavy boots, and had light hair and moustache In the pockets were found two cents in cash, seven apples and peach pits. It is believed that he was tramp.
