Congressman Belknap Talks About His
Summers Outing

Hon. Charles L. Belknap commenced
writing letters yesterday for the first
time since his right hand was hurt IN
the accident IN which he, VIM. Alden
smith and two other gentlemen escaped
30 narrowly with their lives at the
800" IL Will be remembered that as
these gentlemen were riding about the
own they came where an electric light
pole was beng raised. The pole had
just reached Il perpendicular and all
the men turned their attention toward
the carriage and let the pole fall.
10 fell directly toward the carriage.
Mr.. Belknap saw It coming and jumped
out, calling to the others To Jump at the
same time. Mr.. Belknap was on the
rear seat with Col. Eili., of Iowa, and
Mr.. Smith on the front seat with the
gentleman driving. Mr.. Belknap and
Col. Ellis had barely cleared the car
rage and Mr.. Smith had arisen to MS
feet when the pole crashed down upon
the wagon, smashing the hind wheels
and rear part into kludlng wood. \
piece of wheel struck Mr.. Bclknap's
hand, and lac has been suffering from
the effects ever since.
Yes" said the Congrc ssman, yes

delightful times ever had IN my life

the guest, most of the time, of my
brOther-in-law, Charles Shafcr. of Mar
quctte, who does business At Onota.
There Is an abundance OF fish and game
there, and We caught some OF the most
beautiful trout | ever saw. We took
boats and padded along the shore to-
ward and about the Pictured Rocks >
and ran up the streams, camping where
night overlook us. Bv the way, there
IS a moose up IN that region. | had
heard about HIM for a number Of years,
but doubted whether there really was
one there. But one day we heard a
rustliDg of the branches, and pretty
soon ont came the moose IN sight. We
were still, but he soon scented MS and
fled. He was a large, noble fellow.
tell you. 1t is against the law TO shoot
a moose and ne has not been troubled" j."

Imnortant TO Texas Legislators.

WASHINGTON April Lieut.. Governor
Wheeler, of Texas. president of the state
senate, to-day telegraphed the following to
Speaker Carlisle, on which he asks him to
make parliamentary ruling: "The senate
pissed bill classifying railroad freights
into ten classes In one class the maximum
rate was fixed on cotton. The house de-
feated the bill. The house passed and
sent to the senate bill fixing mynimum
rate only on cotton. The state constitution
says: After bill has been considered and
defeated by either house of the Legislature
no bill containing the same substance shall
be rassed into law during the same session.
The point of order has been raised that the
senate cannot pass into law the cotton bill
of the house. How do you hold?"
The speaker replied that under the state
constitution the house bill could not be-
come law.

AN AMERICAN VENDETTA.


fByT. C. Crawford (Belford, Clarke Coil
II is certainly an anomalous condition Of
things that in this most prosaic and law
abiding of countries, the very home OF the
commonplace and conventional, there
should be region which, in picturesque
lawlessness and primitive blood-spilling,
might rival the demesne of a madimyal
robber baron. Here, in the mountainous
and almost inaccessible border region bet
weeu West Virginia and Kentucky, the
Vendetta. the true Corsican article IN Anne
rican garb, exists in all the charm OF unre-
strained nature. Here murder lifts its red
hand against human life with the unhesi-
tating naiUete Of an acknowledged right.
II forms the amusement of the young and
the business of the mature. Killing Is re-
duced 10 an art; and considering the long
list of these worthy, simple-souled natures
who have been sent 10 their account with
bullet or knife, the wonder is that there
should still lie any left 20 kill or be killed
