SENATOR LAMAR,
A Story Regarding His Absent-NIind-
edness

A Washin gton special says: A good
story about Senator Lamar has leaked out
lately. AS Is well known the senator is
in a day dream half the time. He is the
most courteous OF men, but when he Is
wool-gathering he walks along saluting
his best friends with q stony stare and
answering questions at random. One
day some time ago as MI Ellis of Louis
lana was sitting In his committee room at
the capitol, Mr.. Lamar walked In. he
approached Mr.. Ell is, aid, seating him
self said In his grave and gentle way:
CELLS, l don't believe you like"
"No," said Ellie, 81 don't"
why not?' asked Mr.. Lamar.
"Well," said MIR. Els, "when l first
came here you led me to believe you were
my friend. You seemed to take an in.
terest in me as a new member, and I felt
honored by your regard. Lately you have
hardly spoken to me. l pass and you
don't look at me, and such conduct has
offended me. 1 dislike you very much
"But, Ellis" said the senator, "you
know it's my way"
81 don't care" said Mr.. Ellis. "Its a
- bad way"
MY dear fellow" said Mr.. Lamar,
throwing his arms around Mr.. Ellis neck,
'the next time you see me In that -
bad way just come up and punch me- In
the ribs. Now, promise me, and let's be
friends"
Mr.. Ellis promised him, and they are
friends.

THE PRIVATE SECRETARY.
Dol. Lamont and His Sauve Way OF
Doing Things-His Predeces-
SOFA Responsible Official
Who Is Poorly Paid.

In Its Washington correspondence re-
Gently the New YorkIWorld publishes the
following over the signature of T.. G..
Crawford: There has been no private
secretary who has come to the White
house for many years who has had the
wide political experience Of Colonel
idence to a remarkable degree. He has
been his close adviser and has for a long
time been taken into his confidence. At
Albany, however, the situation Is much
different from that at Washington. There
Lamont was practicl lilly Clevslsnd's oaly
adviser. Here Cleveland has seven coun-
sellers, who will see him every day of his
life, five of whom are very prominent,
influential men. In addition to these
counsellors, the democratic leaders of
both houses will have access to him, and
will insist upon giving him advice. No
president can escape this, unless he should
cut loose from his party. No president
would dream of doing that unless impelled
by very extraordinary circumstances.
| understand the the new private Sec
rotary is q very diplomatic and adrolt pol.
~iticiau, who has much more skill in Great
ing friends than the average man of his
age. He doe, not believe in making
needless enemies. His present position
is one that will try his ability. II he can
maintain his influence and close relations
with the president In the face of counter
influences that will sorround Cleveland
here 1t will show that he has very marked
ability as politician and diplomstiat.
The outgoing Private Secretary Phillips
was MI. Arihur's private secretary in the
custom house In New York. He was ap
pointed his private secretary when Arthur
became vics president. He followed the
latter to the White house. He Is a very
amisble, carefully-dreased young man
| who is ford of club life aud going out In
socisty. He knows nothing, however,
about politics, and has had no more t.
do with the politicians and no more In
fluence upon the White house policy than
If he had been q clerk In a department..
A number Of public men hold that the
position of private secretary to the pre- ST.
dent should be raised in Importance. The
present salary of the position Is SO, $50 a
year. Judge David Davis used to say
that the salary of this place ought to be
raised to $4,000 or $1,000 a year, so that
the president could securs the services OF
a man capable of taking nearly all of the
detail work of the administration off Of
his hands. 1t is possible that Colonel
Lamonts administration of the office will
result In the salary of the position being
raised, for 1t is generally conceded thai
his services would be cheap at double the
salary that Is now paid.

Some Original Proverbs.

Sent to London Truths Prize Competition.
A white lie often makes a black story.
1t q poor music'a an who can't blow his
own trumpet. He who would eat the
egg must first break the shell. Every
back has Its pack. Pens and ink out of
reach avoid many breach. Look after
your wife; never mind yourself, she'll
look after you. The present is the child
of the past and the parent of the future.
The want of money is the root of much
evil. Egotism Is an alphabet with one
letter. If you know a mans character
follow him home. Better a line of sense
than a page of nonsense. The sursst road
to honor is to deserve it. Only whisper
scandal and Its echo is heard by all. It's
not the clock with the loudest tick that
goes the best. Signs are poor things to
fly with. Home Is the rainbow of life.
Don't complain of the baker until you
have tasted his bread. They who live In
a worry invite death by hurry.

FIGHT WITH A MOUNTAIN LION
A Fifteen-Ycar.ol Old Boy Bags His
Game.

| Helena Herald.
On the 18th of February a mountain
lion Weighing over 200 pounds, and
the tip of the tail, was killed on the
range between here and the Miss ouri.
On the morning of the came date Mr..
Synnes and his son Ole, a boy fifteen
years old, were out In the mountains be-
tween Hilger's and McCloud's ranches,
taking out timber for fencing. The boy,
who had been sent ON a short errand,
came running back saying he had aeen
the track Of a large mountain lion
and was going out to follow the trail
Remon strances from the father were USE

boy ltarts id out with q 44.calibre Win.
chester rife to hunt one of the ~fiercest
wild beasts that infest Four mountains.
After following the trail for q mile and a
half the boy lost it at the entrance of q
wood. When about to give up the search
he cast his eyes upward and beheld the
beast crouched upon a limb of q large fir.
The head of the animal was hidden from
sight 80 the boy aimed at its fore shoulder
and fired. The animal upon receiving
the fire, sprang upward and climbed
still further up the tree
when, from his elevated perch he
sent forth a series of roars that made the
mountains resound with their echoes.
Not In the least deferred by such fierce
ex%postulations on the lions part the
boy fred again, and this time brought
the beast crashing down through the
branches. He lsy for a few minutes
partially stunned upon the ground, and
the dog, which had hitherto kept In the
background ''because he could not climb
a tree" now rushed forward to finish the
beast, but o powerful blow from one of
the lions paws sent that dog on an ex-
cursion through the atmosphere that had
q wonderful effect In calming his
enthusiasm. Indeed, the dog now
felt such an utter lack of confidence in
his own abilities that he could not be in
duced to return to he charge. The lion,
after this little by-play, reassumed his
role and consulted hts safety by taking to
another tree. This time the brute left
his head exposed, and, selling the oppor-
tunity, the boy lodged a bullet In his
brain. This terminated the battle, and
the plucsy boy returned home. The
young man Is known to many of our Hell
n sportsmen and is remarkable for his
skill with the rife, killing while on the
run, jack rabbits and larger game.
