Material for Leather Medals.

There are quite number of anecdotes
about Sam Houston that have never been
published, among them the following:
In the discussions of the Texas con-
gress frequent illusions would be made
to Houston. which were very far from
being tlattering. His early life among
the Indians was an armory from which
many a poisoned arrow was drawn.
On one occasion, while Houston was
president, he asked the secretary, ''Well,
what did you have to say about me to-
day?"
The SECRETARY replied, .'The same old
story, general; all about that abrecch-
cloth.
Il wish,' retorted Houston, .thev
would leave that breech-cloth alone. I
want to use it myself l want to have
one part of it cut up into leather medals
for the miserable cusses that talk SO
much about it.-1eras Sittings.

the accident to his son, Birdie, recently

papers, He said that all reports were
rather mixed. The wagon did not run
over the boy, but the team when sud-

backed off a bank, tipping the wagon
driven by Birdie over. Fortunately
Mr.. Lewis, who was in the rear with a
third team, had left out one sack OF the
upper tier, to make a sale place in which
the boy could set. The load was turned
upside down and the boy caught under
it in badly cramped condition, but
saved from sure death by the sacks or
either side of him. It took quite time
to release him and to his fathers anx
ious inquiry, "Are you hurt?" he asked
"Much wheat split" Aside from 6
slight strain and general soreness, which
he felt for a day or two, he was alright
