VaiIing Efforts to Save Him.
In the employ of Hon. NJ. E. Post
there has been for some time a colored
cowboy by the name of Jake Tabor, who
is quite well known in this city and who is
well spoken of by all who knew him.
During the past few days a party of POST
men have been at or near Rock Creek,
forty miles west of Laramie City, engaged
in looking after some cattle and horses be-
longing to Mr.. Post. On Saturday after
noon this party of men, of whom Jake"
was one, undertook the task of swimming
a number of horses across Rock Creek,
about n hundred and fifty yards from
the station. The men, inclu1 ling Tabor,
were all mounted and prepared for the
terrible encounter with the raging waters
which they were destined to meet with.
The river was very high and flowed with
great rapidity, which, taken in connection
with the fact that it was very deep, was a
dangerous task,
Nearly all of the horses that were in
tended to be taken across were driven into
the stream and being followed closely by
the men who were mounted were for the
most part made to win the
stream without much difficulty.
A few, however, gave the party some diff
hcultY, but at length they were all safely
across. together with the men who were
engaged In the work described. For some
reason Jake labor fingered behind after
the balance OF the party had safely reached
the opposite side. At length, however,
he o his horse into the stream and
commenced to swim across the swift roll
ing river. His conduct IN lingering, in
the way he did, had attracted the atten-
ton OF the party, and they all wondered
at ms slowness IN entering the stream.
lie was closely observed on this account,
Tor 1t appeared to some OF them that
there must be something the matter with
him. When he had reached the deepest
part OF the stream, and at a point
where the waters rolled very swift,
IL was with great astonlshment
that the members OF the party saw hlm
begin to dlsengage his feet from the stir
rups, out they were still further surprised
ana horrihed When they saw him, appar-
emily with deloeratlon, slide IRON the sad
Ole INTO the rlVer beside his horse. They
shouted at nm at once to get back upon
MS morse, but instead OF so dong he per-
mltted the horse to pass beyond his reach.
without even making an effort to regain
ms saddle Desperate efforts were at once
made to rescue him and get him out of
the river Dlsengaged from his horse he
was carried rapidly down the stream, and
there was but n thing that could be re-
sorted to IN order to effect his rescue and
that was to larlat HIM n drag HIM to the
shore. lie was a good swimmer but made
not the slightest attempt to reach the
shore nor to SWIM toward 1t, All he did
was TO simply paddle a little with his
hands, apparently Tor the purpose OF
keeping his head above the water. AS
soon as the men discovered that the only
thing to do was to rope him. a larlat was
thrown out to nm, which came very near
going over his head. The establishment

SAVANNAH, GA, Oct. 13-We visited
Yesterday the Baptist District Associa-
ton. now being held at the little town Of
Oliver in Scriven county. Reaching the
place about u m. we found few from
the city. and hundreds from the country,
who thronged the church and village to
overlooking. A sumptuOus table was
spread and a thousand hearts made glad.
Happy groups. social parties and strOlling
couples showed cOntentment to be the
order Of the day. Refreshments were
plentiful and the otherwise unpleasant
ness was driven away. In the afternoon
an able discourse was delivered by Rev.
Mr.. McAu, assisted in the services
by Revs. Edenfeld and Lanier. Some
business was transacted, but the
most ENJOYABLE feature of all was the num-
Der as well as the quality of fair maidens
who adorned the grounds with their pres
ence. Oliver has long been noted for her
pretty girls, but on this occasion she
seemed to OverdO herself. We were Just
looking about for place to lay our head,
as the night was coming on. when Messrs.
r. H. and ". g. Brewer, the thrifty mer-
chants Of HalcyOndale, took us to their
elegant home, about four miles in the
country. Our wants were cared for as
they We're never before. A pleasant ride
and an excellent view Of the country en-
ables US TO tell you something of the farm
ers, who seem TO be well up with their
work and in a prosperous condition. At
early dawn our host awakened us and
took US TO the station, where hasty shak-
ing Of hands and a general farewell was
taken. ARGUS.

THE DARKEY AND THE "FEsTTvE
MULE

The darkey stood in the cotton patch,
whence all but him had fed;
The while trees and traces flew
In circles round his head.
Yet greasy, sleek and black he stood,
As born to rule the storm
a darkey Of the blacklist blood,
A rough. ungaInly form.
The mule kicked-be would not go
Without his masters word;
The master in the grass laid low,
His voice no longer heard.
He called aloud: "Say, masss, say
Nus / let dis mule gOs"
The master trembled as he Law.
And the darkey hollo'ed, Nv hoa"
Speak. massa," once again he cried,
''If may yet be gone"
Naurht but the WhIstlng hOOfs replied.
As fast the mule kicked on.
Upon his brow he felt their breath,
And IN his kinky hair;
He looked from that lone post Of death
In still, yet brave despair.
He shouted but once more aloud,
..AIv g0lly. mus ] stayfn
While Ger him fast dusty cloud.
In pillows made its way.
It hid the darkey from all view.
And filed his shining eye:
And rose above the cotton, too,
Like clouds across the sky.
There came at last one mOnstrous kick
The darkey-where was he
Ask Of those heels that flew so quick,
For, alas! 10 one could see.
The work hands all returned az last,
The mule could not be found;
Death held that darkey in his grasp,
Half buried in the ground
