Il VIII Be ever Thus.

Much truth is spoken in the following
from the st. Paul Globe: 1.-THE an
nouncement that Rutherford b. Hayes
declined TO speak at republican meet
ing in Ohio the other. day is about the
only reminder the country has had for
some time that this is the man who was
president Of the United States only eight
years ago. Presidents, like other men,
strut their brief hour and are no more.
Somehow after their terms have expired
they seem to sink into. obseurity from
which they are seldomraised. Only the
best informed can tell, without inyestiga-
ton, what became of AAdrew jackson
after he LEFT the white house; and Van

Buren,, and Fillmore, and Pierce, and
johnson. Thirty years ago the name OF
David r. Atchison, a senator from Mis-
souri,, was as frequently in the mouths of
people as that of James g. Blaine is to-
day. He was acting president Of the
United States for one day, and recog-
nized as one of the ablest members of
the senatecwiien Clay, Webster and Cal
houn sat init. And when he died, three
years ago, leading newspaper Of his
own state gravely, announced the death
of Samuel r. Atchison.. Every four
years the people run half distracted in
an effort to elect man to the presiden-
cy, and the successful candidate is the
recipient of as much attention for the
next four years as the Ruler of the Uni
verse. Then he falls almost into obliv--
ion, and is scarcely mentioned until he
dies. Then the worms eat him.. And
the years pass by"
There is something, however, about
the average Black Hills politician that
keeps his memory green. 1t may be his
gall.

Remembered with Horror.

Portland Oregonian: The ship gather
or, loaded with Black Diamond coal, will
sail for San Francisco today. The name
of this ship is linked with all that is
brutal and inhuman, in the minds Of
thousands of Pacific roasters. A few
years ago the Gatherer sailed from Car
diff to San Diego, CAL, with cargo OF
coal. She was differed by cruel and in
human men, and the outrages perpe-
trated on the members of the crew were
something terrible. Ono of the boys
fell from yard into the sea, and he was
allowed to drown without any effort be-
ing put forth to rescue him. Two mem
bers of the crew committed suicide rath-
or than longer suffer the outrages perpe-
trated upon them. One sailor, as pun
ishment for some trivial offense, was
placed in the hog pen with hogs and
kept there for weeks, until he finally
went crazy. When the ship reached
San Diego there was hardly sound
man on board, and the courts took the
matter in hand. The first officer got ten
years in San Quentin, but the captain
escaped.
Shortly after that the ships Challenge
and Harvest, belonging to the came com
pany. came into port with railroad iron
belonging to the Northern Pacific, and
the men on those ships had Jared but
little better than the crew of the Gather
er. Some had broken arms, some broken
jaws, some broken noses. One had
jumped overheard to escape torment, and
one or two had died from injuries re-
ceived. Tho officers were arrested and
the first and second officers OF both ships
were sent to the United States penitenti-
airy, but the masters escaped without
punishment.

That Remarkably Dry Year

a reminiscent citizen Of Macon, Ga,
says: That 1889 was very rcmarka-
bly, dry year. He was planter at that
time. He planted his crop and sue
ceeded in getting good stand Of every
thing. On the Sd day of July there
came fine season, the last Of the year,
the next falling sometime in January,
1910. He states that every blade Of
fodder, was pulled, bound and housed
from sun-down to sun-up. There was 3
neighbor of hiswho had sixty acre cot
ton field, and becoming so utterly hope
less of everything, he turned his cattle
on it, but by hard persuasion on the
part of his friends, he was prevailed
upon to take them out. He gathered
from those sixty acres twenty bales Of
cotton, which in those days was re-.
garded full average yield uIder fay-,
orable circumstances. There never had
fallen upon the field drop OF rain from
the forming to the marketing Of the
cotton. In speaking Of the Ocmulgee
river, he stated that one gentleman,
just for the novelty of the thing, raised
a crop ofturnips in the bed of the river,
and fine ones, too.

What 3 Vassar Girl Did.
boston Advertiser

\ Vassar girl tells, in the New York
Morning Journal, of the curious ways
in which girls in that institution earn
their pocket money. "Some Of
the girls who come up to Vas
sar," she says, "are as helpless
as babes. They are the daughters Of
millionaires, and never brushed their,
own hair, or sewed a button on their
boots in their lives. They are only too
glad to have some one do these thirgs
for them, and that is how the poorer
girls make pocket money. Last year 8
pretty, blue-eyed girl came to college,
and stated, during the first week, that
her tuition and board were paid by q
kind relative, but every penny for dress,
car fare and the thousand and one lit
tie incidentals, she must earn herself.
"Soon after her arrival the following
announcement appeared on her door:
"'Gloves and shoes neatly merded
for 10 cents each. Breakfast brought
up for 10 cents. Hair brushed each
night for 25 cents a week. Beds made
up at 10 cents week.
THAT little Freshman made just
$50 the first year," continues the ae-
count, land that paid all Of her ex-
nenses and a q good mart of her tuition
fees" -.
