Steer TyiUr Contest.

The following item, taken frcr the Phenix Herald, was committed from our last issue on account of a lack of space. It gives the full pa, ticulars of the Meadows-McGar, contest, as follows;
 The steer tying contest, first or the programme, was won by Me Gary, roping and tying three steers, in the aggregate time of 4:523 Meadows aggregate 5:)94. Me Gary was the favorite from tie first, and maintained the good opin- ion of the onlookers to the fnisl [, He roped and tied his last steer il one minute, demonstrating his right to be classed among the best Hc no doubt would have shortened tn time on the first and second stee s had not the rushing crowd stampede, his horse in the first act after he had dismounted and was tying th, steer, and on the second steer hi horse got away and ran himseE down, thereby incapacitating him in the subsequent trials.
 Meadows was also accompanied by bad luck in the roping and tying contest, his horse getting away anG his riata breaking and really some were unkind enough to hint that it was pre-arranged that the rope should break on the last steer-time, 6:35.
 The flag race-250 yards, five flags fifty yards apart-was won by Meadows, he getting 3 and McGary |; time l5 seconds.
 The bronco riding, third and last on the days programme, was won by Meadows. Mr Meadows, having won two out of the three contests, Was declared the winner of the $500.

One, and only one, of the very
populous centers Of the worlds popu-
lation still remains shut up from travel;
that is the capital of Thibet. The
peculiar religion of that country has
had force enough to absolutely inclose
Lhassa, the capital Of the Dalai Lama,
from all approach. Only six or seven
Europeans ever set foot in that city,
and none of them are alive. But the
famous Russian traveller, Prejevalsky,
has made three attempts, and is now
about to make the fourth. On the
third he was obliged to turn back after
reaching within twenty miles of the
city. From one alone of his expe-
ditions he brought back 5000 speci-
mems of plants, besides enormous COL
lections of fish, insects and animals
one-tifth of the whole being new to
science; so that his failures are in the
highest degree successes. Fifty years

EUk OUR YOUNG READERS,
CANNOT AND /. CAN.


Away far of in Showdown, many, many years
ago.
cTwas the place just out OF Notown, as geo.
graphers may know,
There lived plain old farmer, and most &C.
centric man. @
VINO called his sons these curious names:
Cannot and Can
Twin brothers they, and like as peas. through
-ch1ldhood's tears and joys. ,eaa
ihey daily grew, till one bright morn were
great big, grown-up boys;
III face and form, tho much alike, alike thew
lite began,
, Cannot was in many ways far different from
lean ...- E.. ..@. - ~
lCannot, when baby, always wore scowling
face,
At his nurse he e'er was blinking, or else max
ing sly grimace.
And all he seemed to live for was to wripple
and to twist .a..-
Or to scream, and choke and strangle, while he
shook his little fist.
ana "hen to boyhoOd he was grown. his onlv
thought was play:
FROM school he ran trrant oft, and idled time
away
And if to wor'; he e'er WAS asked he'd ALWAYS
rave and rant ...
Or else he'd whine and cry aloud: 81 can not
0, can'tV'
Can, the blessed baby, always wore q smiling
face, ..,
And he'd patty cake the bakers man. with
dainty childish grace;
And II stranger took him. he would neither
squirm nor twist,
But would only try to swallow hard his chubby
little fist.
And when to boyhood he was grown, through
brimrning DER with fun,
lie went to- school, and college, too, and laurels
there he won;
His teachers called him oft and oft a manly lit
. tie man.
He never whined. but always said: "I'I t,v: I
think I cam
"A young man grown, I Cannot was sorry sight
to see,
For he scarcely knew his letters, only A and
and 9.
OF course his head was empty as an old tomato
can,
For shaking it, he laughed at work, and e'er
from duty ran,
But what he sowed, that must he reap it was
the same in kind:
Cannot would not take the pains to store up
we'll his mind,
And so for bread he went to beg: his time for
work was past
And in . hovcl ended life, in drear Notown at
last.
Can, unlike his brother. was both handsome,
straight and tall.
And he spoke each foreign language, Portu-
guese and French and all
His head was full Of learning as nut is full OF
meat.
And he filled most every Office at the Slowtown
county seat.
His fame went forth to Notown, as most dis
tingushed man.
And the reason was most surely that he always

IN the middle tiny pink point; then
as the crack widened-a pair of very
bright black eyes; and when it was
opened about half an inch, we saw in
the doorway the drollest face that one
can imagine.
The whole face came to a sharp edge
(llke wedge). At the top, between
the eyes. was the funny pink nose,
with blackish dots on it, as if he had
been playing in the mud; and below
the nose a small black mouth, with
corners drawn in the primmest fash

The eccentric individual had no fore.
head to speak of, his head going di,

there seemed to be no place for brains,
it was plain from his knowing ways
that he had some. At the tip end OF
his nose was a pair of nostrils that
looked as If they were made by stick.

''puckered'' little mouth, come to look
at it, extended around the side-from
ear to ear, you might say-and had 6
sharp edge to the upper lip, that could
bite as we'll as any body's teeth. e..
The head of our strange little guest
turned one side or the other, his SHARP
eyes moved this way and that, and al
together he bore the appearance Of &
very wise old person indeed, with de-
clded opinions regarding the present
company. ......... r.
Still we did not move, and little by
little he opened wide his door, till We
saw his neck, wrapped in what looked
ike small orange and black shawl

we noticed two cushiony-looking OBJ
Jects at the side, all covered with his
favorite black and orange; and slyly
peeping out from behind, two broad
HAT feet, having five odd little toes,
with a sharp black toe-nail on each.
In time the side cushions turned Out

down behind was the most absurd tail,

When the turtle had pushed out. al

Charlie in the Swing,

Emma and Harry went with thei1
mother to see their grandma, who lived
in Indiana. They were in high glee
when they got out of the city and Jaw
the green fields and woods. They took
their pet rabbits and swing rope along,
and grandpa made a pen for the rab.
bits and put the swing up in the wagon.
shed in the barn.
Grandpa had horse called Charlie,
and one of the children was always on
his back when he was led to the well
for water. One day grandpa found
that Charlie had got loose, and was
gone from the stable. Where do YOU
guess he was? Fast in the swing!
He had put his head through the
swing, and then his forefeet; then he
tried to get out, but he could not; so
he turned round and round until the
rope was twisted up tight. But Char
ley was good horse, and would not
kick, but stood quietly until grandpa
came and let him out. This is every
word true story.-Our Dumb Ami
