Thy glad peal OF thanksgiving that went ting

When TO the proud young Lord OF Lisle a

Tho Buffalo Express says that Mr..
Theodore Roosevelt is rich, but not
lazy, and gives this explanation for his
disappearance from political activity:
"Mr. Roosevelt is not in politics simply
because the opposite party, having
fear of him, have 'dlstricted him out.
He has not by any means lost his in
terest in politics, nor his ability to serve
his country and his party whenever the
conditions become favorable to his re-
turn to public life. In the meantime he
is not idle. His book on ranch-life and
the game of the Rocky Mountains is one
of great merit and value. He lis en-
gagged on history of the Mexican War,
which promises to be. like his naval
history of the War of 1872, the standard
authority. He has been diligcnt and
successful hunter, and an account of
one Of his plucky exploits in catching
horse-thieycs has gone the rounds of the
press

A Struggle for Principle.

A rainy day had housed Us up Ia
the cabin ofa Tennesseean, and about
nine o'clock in the morning q man,
who was addressed by our host as
Uncle Billy, came riding up through
the steady pour on mule. The
animal was placed in the stable, and
as the two men entered the house,
our host observed:
Well, Uncle Billy, how'll you trade
mules?"
"Ob, bout three dollars tew boot"
was the answer:
They returned to the stable and
talked until noon. Then we had
dinner. and they talked until four
o'clock. The rain let up a bit, then
we went out to see cave, leaving
them talking mule. We returned at
six and they were still at IL. We
bad supper and the interrupted con
versation was resumed aud kept up
until Dine O'Clock. We went OF to
bed With Uncle Billy saying:
TELL ye what I'll dew. I'll trade
fur three dollars tew boot.n
1t thundered about midnight and
woke up and heard that mulc-talk
still going. At six o'clock | got up.
Uncle Billy was just riding away.

JOhn Brown as a Prophet.

Old "0ssa watomin Brown, not
withstanding his fanaticism, is credit
ed with being something ofa prophet.
Descended from Peter Brown who
landed from the Mayfower in 1920,
John was born in Connecticut ia
1900, and was hanged in Charlestown,
Va, Dec. 2 1859. While be was
organizing the memorable Harpers
Ferry raid, with which we are all
familiar. he said be would settle in
South Mountaiu, aud search for preci-
Gus metals. He declared the rocks In
that section abounded in the raw
material which would bring the Rnd.
er untold weath. His prophecies
were regarded as little more than an
idle tale, though sometimes quartz Of
various quality had been found just
as he predicted. But with all his
foresight in depicting the doom of
slavery and the troubles that would
fall upon, Harpers. he never dreamed
that he would come to his death by
the hangman's rope. But now when
there comes news of silver ore being
discovered along the Potomac's banks
it is possible that John Brown was q
true prophet. And if this untold
wealth be brought to light to any
great extent, no doubt those who re-
joiced in old "Ossawatomi'sn fate,
and who often sung" John Browns
body lies mouldering in the grave,
bis souls a maching onn-will be
compelled to admit that old John
Brown was something of q prophet,
Notwithstanding his fanaticism.

johnson, "what struck the most forci-
bly, was the mosquitoes. Why. sir. they

that mosquito could kill a bear, but
this is the way it is done: The bears

soon as they get comfortably to work
the mosquitoes attack them and go for
their eyes. The bears get up on their
hind legs TO fight them of, and sink into

they have them completely at their
