The Oldest Scout in the West.

In a humble home on Snake River,
near the boundary line between
Colorado and Wyoming, lives Jim
Baker. He is familiarly known AZ
the Old Man OF tho Mountains For
over fifty years he has been a hsn-
ter, trapper scout and guide, on the
frontier After half a century of
thrilling adventure, both ON the
plains and in the mountains, his al
most iron nstilalion refuses to
yield it's strength to changing time
He is now over eighty years of oge,
aud many say older, but be laughs
at his years aud says he is still
young. His eye is keen and quick
as an eagles, even thi ough the bur-
don Of four score years is resting
upon him. His hair is long and
silken aud white as the mountain oil
snow. The locks are curly, aud
flowing far down his shoulders, make
him look verify the patriarch of the
Rocky mountain country that he IT,
His is tho most Characteristic face il
all the frontier. 1t is as rough as
the unhewn aud rugged rocks, an 4
the sharp, rongh features show the
strength and nerve that have always
characterized him.

rifle for companion, left Ipdepen.

MAKING UP WITH HER "
We old fellows have allbssa thess

end Ve can remember all aboot u
We loved ber-g1ess NO didl--and
we knew that ehe loved in return
But one day she gave Snm Tomp'
kins n smile, and she let Tom Wat
kins walk home with her under her
umbrella, or abe did some other
simple thing, and we goi huffy. We
loved her oil the time, but We sat
down and wrote her letter, datiug
it midnight, saying we wanted all
those letters aud that ring, and that
photograph back. We hoped she
wouldn't return EN-, but We felt a
malicious pleasure in puuishing her.
The letter was sent, or handed to her
personally, aud we met her with a
cold good morning" as che came to
school, but bestowed our best smile
on Laviua Wedge, the b,mliest girl
/ in school.
Our heart ached when we looked
ucross the desks and saw her slyly
readipg tho letter aud trying to
keep back the tears; but We went
over to the girl in trout 10 borrow a
geography, aud to the eecoud girl in
front t. borrow grammar and we
were entirely uncopscigus Of the
presence OF The girl we loved.
We stood beside her in sho class as
straight ~ n pole, never letting on
We saw her, and the uatural agree
mcpt that il one missed tho other
should do the same, in order to keep
together was broken. We tried to
feel maliciously glad when we went
to the head Of the class aud left her
near the foot, but we couldn't do it.
We went on this way for three oil
four days. Once in a while we caught

boy by the hand, elbowed his way

Well sit here Jimmie, where we

went to a circus one day, dears,
Aud the name Of the circus was Life
And Elte took the cash at the door,
dears,
For she was the managers wife;
She gave me very good seat, .dears,
Where could see all Of the show,
Aud she said that her husband nam
ed Death, dears,
Would cay when the time was to go.
The wrestlers and tumblers came out,
dears.
And o, they were splendidly drest--
In purple aud scarlet and green, ,dears,
And spangles and tinsele the best
They smiled and they bowed and they
waved, dears,
With the lordliest, easiest grace,
And unless you looked hard you could
not, dears,
See the powder and paint on each
face.
Then there was the funniest clown,
dears,
And o, how we laughed ut each
joke;-
If back Of the scenes he have wept,
dears,
Pray what does 1t matter good folk'
That tumber high up in the mir, dears,
Flying out in that terrible leap
You would dine just the same IL he
FELL, dears,
And lose not single nights sleep.
When we've been ut this circus some
time, dsars,
(Some moments or years-all the
same
The tinsel grows tarnished and dull,
dears,
The clowns jokes grow silly and
We are all OF us secretly bored, dears
Still we might as well stay till the
end,
Wemus at the poorest of shows, ,dear'
Get the most for the money We
spend.
Beside, what's outside Of the tent
dears
Death will soon enough tell us to go
And Just what comes after the show
dears,
All, that is the thing we don't know
So presistently laugh at the clown
dears,
And pretend to your neighbor your,
gay.
Depend OF it-back OIL smiles, ,dears
He is feeling the very same way.
And applaud when the girl walks tn,
rope, dears,
know its small pleasure to you
But its less of II pleasure to her. .dears
See her strain every sinew and u'eU
And whatever you say or you do,
dears,
Insist that the tinsel is gold,
You've more chance to keep n good
seat, uears,
II you're partially blind, l am told.
Then hey! for the circus Of life Life
dears,
And no | for tho funniest clown
Were eyer such wonderful feats, dears
So little to jeer at or frownP
We wouldn't go out il we could, dears
(Though we couldn't go out If W,
would,)
The circus was cheap at the price
dears,
We would come hear again IL W,
could.

A Cincinnati man, whose favorite
driving mare fell sick, turned her out
to pasture among a lot of mules
While she lay, too feeble to care
what was going on, they ate her
name and tail off as thoroughly as Il
barber could have cut them. The
mare can still trot in 2:30, but she
looks queer.

WOODWARD & LOTHROP

Reductions are the order
of the day, and here we
wish to say a word about re-
ductions. We never reduce
the price of merchandise
except for good business
reasons, and those reasons
are two. We buy many
kinds of goods, and often.
times make a mistake and
buy the wrong goods, or
styles, or too many Of the
same kind Of goods. We
know we are wrong when
the goods don't sell rapidly,
hence we reduce their price
to move them faster. The
second reason is, manufac-
turers find they are over
stocked and offer us the bal
ance Of their production at
much less than regular
price.
The old plan used to bc TO maintain the
regular retail price, no matter II they did cost
less. We have always found IL paid us bet
ter to reduce the price on all goods whenever
we could buy at low figure, and as we can
and have bought goods at less than irst-of.
the.season prices we offer you the opportu-
nifty to buy them less from us.
| Both of the above contingencies constantly
| occurring In the marts OF trade, give oppOrtu-
| nifty to advertise reduced prices, but II also

misunderstandngs, and for that reason, IN

PEOPLE,.

A London tallor's dictum was that
he could take meal sack and make
a suit OF clothes worthy Of gentle
mans wearing II the fit was right.
Gentlemen have fancies in dressing.
One goes for something showy, an
other expressly calls for special
weave, and so on. But the particular
points Of suit are fit and style Ma
terial and making may be ever so
good, but condemnation will be swift
If there be failure in 6t and style.
In these two points our stock of suits
for business and everyday wear full
fills the highest ideals of dress; with
due attention given to propriety Of
fabrics and perfectness of making,
and, above all, with the. wit of the
elothier-his Misunderstanding at
its brightest, in the tone of fashion
reigning in them, impalpably, dis
tinctly stamping them as stylish and
faultless in fit. We extol these less
highly than q gentleman would in ex-
amining them. They are ready
| made, and at prices OF ready-made.

YELLOW FkvER SPREADING.

The news from the Trans Mississippi
in this issue is not a. al reassuring. In
deed, it looks like tie dreadful scenes OF
1878 in the valley there might be re-
enacted before John Frost, the conquering
king of yellow fever, appears upon the
stage. The outbreak at Gainesville, il
central Florida, was chronicIed yesterday
To-day We have intelligence of the com
mencement OF the disease at the capital OF
Mississippi. This makes the situation
doubly dangerous. With northern Ala.
bama infected and so important a railroad
center as Jackson inoculated with the
deadly microbe, Memphis, New Orleans and
the whole region on the lower Mississippi
are now threatened as they have never yet
been since the initial cases in an obscure
Florida village, above Tampa.
And it is now that the state health Off
Ger of Texas, as we'll as the municipal
authorities and the people of towns and
cities in the coast section of our state,
should be on the alert. Refugees from
panic-stricken towls the other side of the
Mississippi, scattering in all directions
NAV lodge the disease on this side, and
before We are aware of it. Every health
officer of the state should now be minute
