The Watchman Clubbing List.

| To accommodate subscribers who desire
to obtain one or more periodicals through
one agency and at reduced rates, we will,
until further notice, receive subscriptions
for the WArcHMAN and any of the publica-
tions named below at the prices given in the
column headed With WATCHMAN." The
terms are cash in advance. The subscrip-
ton price of the WATcHMAN is $500 year
in advance, or $3.50 when not paid within
three months.
The premium business has been greatly
overdone, and is being quite generally dis
oarded by publishers of country papers, who
feel that they cannot longer afford to =" give
something for nothing lit having proved,
in most instances, a positive loss rather
than substantial gain to them. We will,
however, continue for the present our offer
of the WATcHMAN one year and set of
family scales for $500
Any person sending us $500 for four
strictly nelc subscribers will receive copy of
the WATcHMAN free for one year.
Subscribers who are in arrears on their
payments for the paper will confer favor
by sending an early remittance. Let no
one think his or her remittance of little ac-
count to us, as the aggregate of these over
due subscriptions is large and indispensable
to our business No paper discontinued
until all arrearages are paid, except at the
option of the publisher. In ordering paper
discontinued the amount of arrearages, if
any, should accompany the order, and thus
save annoyance to both subscriber and
publisher

Cowboy Pianist in New York

Blakely Hall in San Francisco Argonaut.
An effort is being made to work up en-
thusiasm here over long-haired, dropping
and not particularly active cowboy, who is
said to be phenomenal pianist. He has
an agent who is quite as picturesque and
blood-thirsty in appearance as himself, and
the pair are often seen about town together.
The man really plays well by ear, but he is
by no means to be compared to dozen New
York pianistS who wear short hair and
evening dress instead Of the conventional
trappings of the cowboy. His first appear
ance q few nights ago at the Amsterdam
Club before a lot of polite politicians was
instructive. The politicians glanced at his
boots, his leggings and his hair, heard him
play. said it was wonderful and applauded
calmly. The pianist rose after the per-
Torrance and took his seat, and then q
local burlesque comedian seated himself al
the piano and began to hammer out lot OF
popular music, and the politicians lost theil
heads at once. They had admired the
Texans tone, expression and memory, but
it was nothing to their enthusiasm when
they heard climbing up the Golden Stair

time on a single piano. by the popular
comedian. He succeeded In wrestling the

New YORK Letter.
About a week ago my attention was
called to the number of bouncing young
girls who moved along the streets In threes.

Sullivan's "Mikado" company, said at the
time: That is the most CONSPICUOUS re-
suit of the popularity Of The Mikado' in
America. The Three Little Maids from
School song is the most catchy one in the
opera. 1t is sung in every household in
New York, thumped out with unrelenting
enthusiasm on clearinghouse pianos from
one end of the town to the other, hummed
by the car drivers. and whstled by street
Arabs. Now the girls have taken TO travel
ing in trios as they did in London when
The Mikado' first caught the public there.
The idea amused me at first. but / have
taken the trouble to watch the groups OF
girls on Broadway and Fifth avenue since,
and pair is rare, while the trios swing
along everywhere, and they invariably
move as though humming the ditty about
the three little japanese maids.

And in pity, with a little alloy,
