or.tory in Southwest Missouri.

Down in southwest Missouri four or five
years ago town had all arrangements made
10 uhoop er up on the glorious Fourth The
citizens had contributed in liberal spirit,
the day was fine, and the crowd large and
enthusiastic. The orator of the day was a
slim, cadaverous looking man from st. Joe.
To stand of and look him over, you'd have
bet your last dollar that an old gander could
have run him all around a ten acre field.
There were some lofty spirits in town that
day, and one of them was Jim Bucks, mix
ture of patriotism, high jump, and rough and
tumble. Jim szed the orator up, determined
to have some fun with him, and took q seat
directly in front of him as he stood on the
platform to speak The orator hadn't spoken
hundred words before Jim interrupted him.
He did this twice more and was warned to go
slow. He didn't go much on dreams or warn
ings, however, and watched for another OPP
portunity. Pretty soon the orator said:
"And SO this little band of pilgrim fathers
set out with stout hearts and unwavering
faith in search Off
"In search Of skunksi" interrupted Jim.
The orator made long jump, lighted down
on Jim Bucks, and inside Of two minutes he
had him licked so thoroughly that Mrs Buc1
would have passed him by fer splatter u
pumpkin jelly which had dropped from
dinner basket When satisfied that his work
was thoroughly done, the orator returned to
the platform and continued in the same calm
and unruffled tones:
liberty of speech and freedom Of con-
science, and they found them at Plymouth
Rock"
He went on and delivered really eloquent
speech, lasting nearly an hour, and ne was
just concluding when Jim Buck crawied out
from under a wagon half mile away, where
he had been laid, and queried Of those around
him:
''Sayl Is that Teller still speakin' or fghtin'f
Durn me, but didn't 'spose oratory included
jumpin Jim Bucks liver out Of his bodyl"-

THE FOURTH FIRE.

At $50 this morning the fire boys were
called out for the fourth time for a bona
fine fire on the corner of Wichita and
Douglas. The alarm was a little late and
the livery barn on the corner was in
Iull blaze when the department was
first notified. They did some rustling,
however, and saved about fifty horses, all
that were in the barn. In order to get to
the horses in the rear end the hose had to
play over them to keep their clothing from
catching. The roof was completely
burned off but no one was injured. The
stable was conducted by Arnold g. Neal,
and the origin of the fire is unknown.

THREE Small FIRES.

Yesterday was fire day, and i'll the after
noon the boys made three runs. The first
was small blaze that originated in some
unaccountable way in an unoccupied room
over Cot:er Bros. restaurant Mr.. Cot
ter managed to get the fire out and the
bows started for the hose house. In few
minutes they got Ia summons from 1852
North Fourth, which proved to be a barn
owned by Assistant City Clerk Smith. A
horse barely escaped injury. The barn
was beyond the water district and was a
total loss. Origin of the fire unknown.
The next call was at S:3Qp. m to 1l5 South
Ida avenue, which proved to be livery
stable The cause of this fire was the eX-
plosion of a lamp but the flames were
eXtinguished without throwing water.

HINTS ABOUT SHAVING.

The moment you leave your bed (ol

Never use warm water, which makes
the face (of shavers) tender,
A piece OF soft plate leather should
always be kept with razors to wipe them
with.
In cold weather place your razor
closed OF coursel in your pocket or un'
der your arm to warm it.
Always wipe your razor clean and
strop It before putting II away; always
put your shaving brush away with the
lather on it,
Il you only once spnt your razor away
without stropping 1t, or otherwise per
lectly cleaning the edge, you must no
longer expect TO shaye well and easy,the
soap and damp 80 soon rust the the fine
teeth and edge,
The razor, being only fine saw,
should be moved in sloping or saving
direction, and held nearly flat to the
face, care being taken to draw the skin
as tight as possible with the left hand,
so as to present an even surface and
throw out tho beard,
The practice OF pressing on the edge
Of the razor soon rounds It the pressure
should be directed to the back, which
should never be raised from the strop,
II you shave from heel to point Of razor,
strop 1t from point to heel; but II you
begin with the point in shaving, then
strop 1t from heel to point.
