Jay Gouid's Wardrobe,

Mr.. Gould considers his time more
valuable than money, and it is his
habit to visit his tailor and tell him to
make so many suits of clothes II
guess you d better make me about four
suits of clothes this time,' Mr.. Gould
would say. Then he will stroke his
whiskers, look thoughtful and add:
POSSIBLY you'd better make me half a
dozen suits this time; have them done
as soon as you cam and if they don't
prove what | like | will give them to
my brother" Mr.. Gould leaves every
thing to his tailor's Judgment; that per-
son also selects Mr. Gould's neckties
and underwear. The millionaire says
himself that he hasn't time to bother
with such small details. His tailor ex-
planned to me that Mr.. Gould's brother,
whom he had referred to, is rather an
erratic individual. He is the opposite
Of his brother Jay, for he cares nothing
Tor money, neither does he know how to
make it. The millionaire seldom trusts
him with very much money, but he has
carte blanche to go to any of his broth
er's tradespeople and get whatever he
may need. He's exactly the same size
as his brother, and a suit of clothes
that fits one is equally suitable for the
other. Sometimes when Mr.. Gould Or
ders half dozen suits of clothes, and
they are sent home to him, there may
not be one suit that he likes, and he
Immediately gives an order for another
half dozen suits He does not even
think to ask the price, and finds no
fault with his tailor. His tailor says
there are few men in New York that
dress better than Mr.. Gould = WASHING.

KINDNESS THAT PAYS.
The Proper Way of Getting Horses rom
the Pasture Field.

The Proper way OF Getting Horses from
the Pasture Field.
1t would no doubt be very amusing
scene were it possible to take birds
eye view of some OF the busiest farming
districts one of these fine mornings
about daylight, and see the different
ways Of getting horses up out of the
pasture and into the stables ready for
work. The pleading echoes of the
..hoap! hoap! ho-apr' from one farm
would be answered by the savage bark
OF the dog on another farm as he chased
the poor animals as if they were so
out of the neighborhood Getting up
the horses on some farms is regarded as
one of the hardest tasks of the day, and
it is frequently made one of the most
wearisome performances both for the
horses and those who attend to it. 1t
comes al time when neither man nor
beast can afford to get excited or wor-
ried, for the whole days work is still
before them, and with bad start there
is liable to be trouble and worry all the
day. This may seem to be q matter OF
little Importance but there is more in il
than is generally supposed. Horses
which are brought quietly from the
field will eat their morning feed of grain
with better relish and
get more food from it than if chased
around at full speed for half-hour
before he can be captured. The excite
ment caused by this chasing is more ex-
hausting than the hardest kind of labor,
to say nothing about the time lost in do
ing it. If trested properly horses will
not be hard to get up in the morning or
any other time. Treat them kindly
when they come in, and they will soon
learn to come without coaxing or driv-
ing. Have treat in the shape of a
good feed of grain or chop that they
will relish when the get into the stable,
and all you will have to do is to open
the gates and doors and let them to it.
If they have acquired the habit of run
ming, and are hard to drive, it will take
some more tempting than usual to
break off this habit. Have their feed in
the trough for them when they enter
the stable, and they will learn to hurry
to it instead of running in the opposite
direction. 1t may take little time and
some patience to break old offenders,
but it can be done, and when once ac-
complished the pleasure it will afford
and the time saved will more than repay
for the trouble. If you treat and train
your horses right they will be awaiting
your appearance at the accustomed
time instead of skulking away and try
ing to avoid you.-Nationdl !Stockman.

BEES VERSUS INDIANS.
A Touching story Told by a veraclt
California Pioneer.

Touching story Told by Veracious
California Pioneer.
Many readers are familiar with
Wallis extraordinary feat, in 1919, in
driving, according to his statement,
swarm of bees across the plains. A
day or two since, as one of our business
men was coming down town, he hap
pened to discover large bee quietly
resting on Walls shoulder, as prepare
tions were being made for sprinkling
the courthouse lawn. ''Say, Wall,
what are you doing with that bee on
your shoulder" Wall was startled
for a moment. but, recovering his
usual composure, spoke with grav-
ity, carrying conviction of unfair
nishable truth. "I'll tell you, and
it's the solemn truth. if ever l
spoke it in my life. That bee is the
queen of the swarm l drove across the
plains. She has been hunting me for
years, and knew me the moment l
called her name. You see, she is get
ting little gray, but knew her on
sight. She piloted the swarm, and l
used to feed her from my own molasses
can. That bee is the last of her race,
and shall take care of her in her old
age. l tell you, John, that bee brings
up many "reminiscences of that memora-
BILE trip. Several times that swarm stood
by me in an hour of peril. They could
scent an Indian several miles away,
and they got to really enjoy an Indian
attack. The fact is they understood
tactics as well as the best-trained
soldiers. When the queen sounded an
alarm, every bee was uVler arms ready
for fight. First a skirmish line was
thrown out, and you could see more or
less uneasiness among the redskins as
one and another would claw at his ears,
eyes or nose, but when the order to
charge was sounded, and the bee bat
tallions began to move in double
quick, route and stampede always
followed. 1t is fact, John, if ever I
told the truth in my life. What l. am
saying is true. Those bees fought all
my battles across the plains, and this
is my old queen.

Big Duck Shooting.
From the Wnshfngton Post.


The ordinary shotgun, however perfect
it may lie, is altogether too tame and in
effective a weapon for the professional Po-
tomac duck hunter. He must have some
thing that mows down the game like a
machine. He generally uses what he calls q
"big gum" the barrel of which is from ten
to fifteen feet long, and which carries a
pound and half of shot and a half pound
of powder. This engine of de tructon is
placed on a sort IF pivot or rest in the bow
of boat or skiif with the muzzle extend
ing overheard and the butt resting against
a packing of rags or something similar in
the bottom of the craft The man who
uses it lies down fiat in the bottom, and APP
proacnes the ducks on the water by means
of what is called a Creeping paddle
which is very short, and which is
worked by one hand stretched over
the side of the boat. When a point
has been reached sufficiently near the ducks,
some movement is made to frighten Thorn,
and as they rise in great fluttering black
clouds to "big gun" is fired into their
midst, sometimes killing many dozen. The
rebound of these guns is so great that they
sometimes throw the skiff back 40 feet, and
even sometimes sink it, The force of the
rebound is caught by the packing III the
bottom of the boat, ana as may be imagined,
not against the SHOULDER of the man who
fires it. Another device Of similar charac-
ter, practiced by Potomac market hunters,
is 10 arrange from seven TO ten old musket
barrels on the edge of "a boat and have the
triggers of all of them connected by a
string, which when pulled explodes the en-
tire set. II this way as many 200 ducks
have been killed at one fire, many of them

Bonanza Floods Estate.

Floods estate is valued by good judges at

excitement, when shares on the leading
mines brought 5000 and paid $50 month
dividend, Floods wealth was rated at $40,

fortune of all the mining millionaires fully
one-half, aud Floods loss by the Nevada
bank wheat deal was fully $5,0O0,000. The
property will probably be equally divided
