An old and feeble man stood on one of

the rude winds of fall blew his scanty
locks Of gray across his withered cheek
and chilled his STOPPING frame.

his thoughts came struggling back from a

flight, Il can remember. too, when key

reminiscent youth in his eyes, the octo-
genarian Strengthened himself up, and
walked half a block without the aid of his

things in regard to the mountain haunt,
and criminal deeds of himself and his
band. He said that the band had num-
bered as high as ten men. Their held
was a strongly built log house in the cen.
ter of a morass in Jackson's hole, which
could be held against almost anything but
artillery. They obtained their supplies
from two men resident of the hole,
named Holland and Carmcs. These men
were married to squaws, and had hay
ranches. these men made annual fall
trips to Green River City for winter SUD-
pies for themselves and the robber band.
Both Holland. and Carmes have a bunch
of good blooded horses. The n%euclus of
these herds was stolen some years ago
from the anges OF Mr.. darkness in Bing-

for its breeding throughout the entire Sec

While Hosford was absent in johnson

from Blackfoot for Jackson's hole. They
got there and encountered a portion of
"Teton's'' band under the efficient con-
duct OF Bill Thompson, ''Teton's'' lieu
tenant, a fearless desperate, and the best
rifle shot OF the border. After a sharp
fight in the open ground, the robbers re-
treated to their log castle in the morass,
and the posse let them stay there. They
recovered, however, seven head of the
Hines X Stout horses, making the entire
number stolen, with the exception of
those killed on the trail by the robbers.
a short time after the posse had re-
turned to Blackfoot a letter was received
from Thompson, saying that he was still
there and would like to see them again"

4 Cheap Dinner.

Detroit Free Press.
A colored man walked into a cheap
restaurant in the eastern part Of the city
the other day and inquired how cheap he
could get dinner.
''Can't you do better dan dat? ''
''How cheap do you want meal?'
Two cents"
The restauranter looked at him for a
minute and then said:
"All right. Sit down minute and
vel fix you two-sent meal"
When the negro was invited into the
dining room he found only a glass of
water and bottle of horse-radish on the
table. He did not make single COM
plant, but emptied the contents Of the
bottle on his plate and scooped it up
with his knife inside of two minutes and
that without making wry face. Then
he drank off the water, pushed back his
chair and walked off picking his teeth.
''How much are you ahead?" asked a
party who had witnessed the transac.
ton.
'Say,' replied the restauranter, 'that
bottle of horse-r adish cost me just 10
cents"

He Didn't Know His Strength.
iWaukee Sentinel

-iI OcAtAAcl.
There is an old soldier employed in
the government Office of this city who
has had some queer experiences with an
artificial limb, his having been taken oil
at the knee. Among the most amusing
was one with sleeping-car porter. On
one train he struck an uppish sort of
porter who stood around with languid
dignity that would make street-corner
dude sick at heart. This man with the
wooden leg made up his mind that he
would wake that niger up before he
Clipped in his quarter He told a cou-
pie OF men in the Car of his purpose, and
they joined in with him. He wears bis
shoe firmly fastened to the wooden leg,
having no need to remove it, and having
fallen once from loose shoe.
After his berth had been made I'D he
went to the dressing room and unstrap
ped his leg, keeping hold of the strap,
and then got into his berth. Then be
called the porter. '.I've got rheumatism
and can't bend over" be said, "and I
wish you'd pull off that shoe" The
porter united the shoe and tried to pull
it off, but it wouldn't come. '.Pull hard"
said the passenger. The darby gave an
other pull. "Oh, brace against the
berth and pull" said the passenger. The
porter had blood in his eye. He put his
foot against the berth and pulled like a
dentist. The passenger let go the
strap and the darkey fell back with the
shoe and the leg. "My GodI you've
pulled off my legp' shrieked the passen-
ger. The porter dropped it, and with
his eyes bullying out and his teeth chat
tering, he broke from the car. He con-
cealed himself in a corner of the baggage
car, and pretty soon the two other con
spiraton came in, pretended they didn't
know where he was, sat down on trunk,
and talked over the awful condition of
the man whose leg had been pulled off,
and about the penalty the darkey would
have to suffer, if caught. The porter
was of no service to anybody that night.

First Heat the Water.

Toronto World.
The member for West Algona tells a
good story about species of sturgeon
from forty to sixty pounds in weight,
which is peculiar to Rainy river and lake.
On visit which he paid to settlement
on the river he had occasion to visit a
young bachelor, who, with true back
woods hospitality, insisted that he should
stay for dinner. Mr.. CONNIE seated him.
self and watched the preparations of his
entertainer. First, he set down his home
made bread on the table, with tin mugs
for the tea, and then he put a big pot
full of water over the fire. When the
water came to the boiling point he in
fused the tea and set it aside. Then. he
stized gait about six feet long, stepped
outside to the rivers edge, which was
not over ten PAGES distant, and returned
in three minutes with a sturgeon kicking
on the end of his gait, part of which was
soon cut off and transferred to the pot Of
boiling water to be cooked for dinner.
This is the usual thing up there. They
always have the water boiling before
they 60 to catch the fish, and they use
only common gait.

A Fourth Alpine Tunnel.
London Iron,

London Iron,
The Alps are at the present time
pierced by three long tunnels, two enter
ing Italy from France and Switzerland
respectively and the third connecting the
latter with the Tyrol, and called, accord
ing to the mountain chains that are
trayersed, the Mont Cents, st. Gotthard
and Ariberg tunnels. OF these the Mont
Gents tunnel is seven and three-fourths
miles in length. It's cost was s3,O00,-
900. The st. Gotthard tunnel is nine
and one-fourth miles in length, and cost
e3,500,00O, the diminution in expense
being owing principally to the more
rapid progress of the work by improve
ments in the drilling machines. The Arr
berg tunnel is shorter than either that of
Mont Gems or st. Gotthard, being only
six and one-haH miles. Its cost with
the railway, was 93,48O,OO0. A fourth
tunnel, and most formidable rival to
the Mont Gents and st. Gotthard tun-
nels, will be the Simplon tunnel, by
which the existing line from Geneva to
Martigny Brieg will be carried through
the mountains to Ducmo d'Ossola, and
SO on to Pailanza or Streza, on the Lago
Maggiore. As this tunnel will be COM
menced at much lower level than any
of the others, it will necessarily be long
er, the rough estimate being twelve and
one-half miles, and the probable cost
about G4,00O,000.
