MIR. HANRAHAN KICKS.

Shortstop Hanrahan got up early .es-
terday and read the morning papers
with great interest. He CLEANED from
them that he, Freddy" Hanrahan, 1.-THE
greatest shortStop in the Western as
ISOLATION" had given away the game to
DeS MOines by rank errors. Freddy"
exchanged his saffron sweater for
white one and went down to the ball
park thinking so hard that his
cap stood up on the margins
of his hair. Before the game
was called he made an official visit to
the reporters box and entered solemn
protest against error number three
being charged to him. The official
scorer could not change his record,
though all the reporters, in the language
of President Harrison to Corporal Tan
ner, expressed their personal esteem Tor
Reddy ard hoped he would never do 1t
again. Hanrahan is a popular player,
and his i'll luck on Thursday was as
much a matter of regret to the specta-
tors as TO himself. He did better yes
terday, ami is going to do still better
from now on to the close of the season.

Lake Minnetonka. They took trip of
the lake on the steamer May Belle, en-
joyed famous dinner, and, after day
of enjoyment, arrived in Minneapolis at

The redoubtable H. L. Gordon yester-
day returned from California. 1t has
been intimated that his return is actu-5

its sensational reports concerning his
family troubles on the Pacific slopes
together with bitter attacks upon his
character. When seen last evening Mr.
Gordon was very much fatigued from
his journey, and did not care to express

4 BRA We CONGO 10Y.

There was a more touching
story of filial devotion than that told
by a Congo chief to Captain Coquil-
hot:
You know the big island near my
town, he said. Well, yesterday, soon
after the sun cameup one of my wOm-
en- and our little boy started for
the island in a canoe. The boy is
about - years old. He says that
while his mother was padding, she
saw something in the water, and
leaned over to look at it. Then he
saw a crocodile seize his mother and
drag her out of the canoe. Then the
crocodile and the Oma sank out of
sight.
The paddle was lying in the canoe.
The boy picked it up to paddle back
to the village. Then he thought, Oh,
if Icould only scare the crocodile and
get my mother back He could tell
by the moving water where the crocO-
die was. He was swimming Just
under the surface toward the island.
Then the boy followed the crocodile
just as fast as he could paddle. Very
soon the crocodile reached the island
anu WCll Out III ldIlu- I1c ld1u the
woman'sbOdy on the ground. Then
he went back into the river and swan
away. You know why he did this.
He wanted his mate and started out
to find her.
Then the little boy padded fast to
where his mother was lying. He
jumped out of the boat and a to
her. There was a big wound in her
breast. Her eyes were shut. He felt
sure she was dead. He is strong,
but hecould not lift her. He dragged
her body to the canoe. He knew the
crocodile might come back any min
ute and kill him too. He used all his
strength. Little by little he got his
mothers body into the canoe. Then
he pushed away from the shore and
started home.
We had not seen the boy and his
mother at all. Suddenly we heard
shouting on the river, and we saw
the boy padding as hard as he could.
Every two or three strokes he would
look behind him. Then we saw a
crocodile swimming fast toward the
canoe. If he reached it, you know
what he would do. He would upset
it with a blow, and both the boy and

SOME ADVICE, GRATIS.

To the Calcdonian:-If any Yer
mont farmers are skinning their lands
to invest the proceeds i'll Western
farm mortgages they may find that
a home security with moderate in
tercst is Il much better investment i'll
the end.
Briefly stated the West-cspecially
the newer statcs-are largely covered
with mortgages paying heavy in
tereSt and commissions to secure
Eastern capital. As Il rule the prof
its of Western farming are notgreat-
" beyond the profits of farming in
New England, and while the Western
farmer may from his profits pay the
interest on his indebtedness, the vast
majority, unless past experience is at
fault, can never III that way pay off
the principal.
1t should be fully understood that
the money made i'll the West is main
lv from a tide of emigration increas-
ing the demand and raising the prices
for land. Emigration is the main
hope of borrowers who are always
glad to sell at prices which will leave
them a small margin with which they
can push on to fresh fields and pas
lures new" While this is going on
Eastern investors may resti in reason

Stringencv in the money market, or
any other cause there IRE no BUYERS

mortgage and its accumulating in

last resort. | know it is said that
the capital of the various land mort
gage companies can make up the de
%ticiences of delinquents, or tide them
Over to better times. But suppose it
happens, as 1t has and may again,
that whole communities, by town
ships and counties, are in default and
everybody wanting to sell and no.

be heavy losses to be borne some

And here permit me to advise those
who are interested in Western securi-
ties to study fredericksburg in new
states concerning foreclosures. re-
demptIOns, inJunctiOnS and stays,
and the decisions of courts thereon.
And if sufficient distractions do not
already exist in the path of the credi-

lature will be hurried together to do
the bidding of the farmers, for they
are the state, and the politicianskn know
it and are governed thereby. .
