His Modest Requirements.

One OF Mr.. Blaiue's last interview
with an office-huntiug delegation be.
fore he left has afforded him as much
anusement'as any experience Of thai
kind ever did. The delegation wal
from North Carolina and was present.
ing Col. Blank of that state for for.
eign post of some kind. The visitors
were full of praise of the colonel and
insisted that he was . most deserving
man aud must have something good.
As . matter of fact the coleaeI was .
rough aud tough old mountaineer who
had never travelled aud knew little
about public affairs. He had spent his
whole life at home and was . near
neighbor of the old Cherokee tribe of
Indians in that state. But he was am
bilious and wanted to 60 abroad in an
official capacity.
Col. Blank. of course. accompanied
his friends to the state department.
The party bore letters from several of
Mr.. Blaine's nearest friends. and on
that account met with a cordial recep-
ton. There was q secret fear felt,
however, as to how the applicant
would appear before the secretary,
and therefore when Mr. Blaine turned
and addressed Col. Blank q shudder
ran through the delegation. the colonel
included.
And so you want to 60 abroad,
colonel?" asked the secretary, blaudly.
Col. Blank, struggling with a lump
in his throat admitted the impeach-
ment.
DO you speak German9"
The colonel had to admit that he
did not.
"FrenchP" "No."
Spanish" No"
'.1talian?" persisted the merciless
secretary. No"
What language do you speak, col.
onelP"
Col. Blank turned very red, hest
tated moment, and then blurted out:
Cherokee and little English"
This was too much even for the
North Carolinians. Everybody laughed.
and in that outburst of good nature
the party withdrew.
Col. Blank was subsequently, made
a gauger in the brandy country at
home. and is well satisfied with his
ppointmeut.-N 7. World.

Mean Trick on n Senator.

At the last session of congress ]
played it very low down on nv friend
Senator Vance of North Carolina. A
rather pretty girl with whom 1 had a
slight acquaintance asked me for a let
ter to the agricultural department
people recommending her for a place
in the seed distribution rooms. went
to Vance and he growled: mo, sir.
I'll recommend no woman for place. ="
l argued and pleaded with him, finally
saying: But senator, this is a verv
deserving woman. She is old and un-
fitted for the struggle for existence.
Her husband served in my command
through the war and he was splendid
soldier. He died on the field and left
his wife penniless. Do a good deed;
help this poor old widow" Vance's
heart was melted and he exclaimed:
by George, Kennedy. I'll do it if that
is the kind of woman she is" The
letter was written and the girl got the
Job. Some months after this l was
sitting with Vance on a steamboat.
when up walked this blooming damsel
she was abou q 19-with q How are
you. captain?" to me. She recognized
Vance and addressed him. saying that
she had long desired to thank him for
his great kindness. telling him her
name and how his letter had secured
her siDecure. Vance looked at me
as much as to say: You Just watt
and accepted the young persons
thanks and languishing chances very
quietly. When she had gone Vance
turned to me and remarked, mourn
fully: Kennedy, you are the biggest
liar and most stupendous fraud on
earth. I'll pay you for this If wait

Stepping into store one afternoon be
saw Joe standing by the counter. and,
raising the rife to his shoulder. he
! pulled the trigger. 1t is not good
scheme for a man to pack gun unless
! he packs q little common sense and
presence of mind along with 1t. The
postmaster forgot to put cartridge
into the barrel of his rifle. and when he
pulled the trigger nothing happened.
Something happened Immediately af-
terward. however. Joe Dye pulled his
gun and shot lot of holes in the post
, master. or course. Joe was acquitted
on the plea of self-defense.
Old man Udell has walked the streets
of Santa Paula with his heart In his
mouth for more than two years. He
had ranch adjoining Joe Dyes place
10 the hills. and one Sunday Joe made
neighborly call on him. Joe's dog
was there. too. and Immediately picked
row with Udelrs dog. Udell tried to
stop the fight but Joe said. Let 'em
have it out. They'll fight every time
they meet if they don't have it out
now" So the dogs had it out aud Joe's
dog got beautifully licked.
That made Joe fearfully angry. He
went home after his gun, came back
and shot Udell's dog and talked about
shooting Udell also. The old man fed
to town and never went back to the
ranch until he heard that Joe Dye was
dead.
Joe Dye was killed few weeks ago
in Los Angeles. He had threatened a
man, who didn't want to be shot, and
the man who didn't want to be shot
bought a shotgun and resolved to give
Joe dose of Phoebe fair play.
Draw and - bang - defend your
selfr' That is Phoebe fair play. 1t
got its name from the Nevada mining
camp. where it was practiced by the
gun-fghters of early days with great
success.
The man who didn't want to be shot
located himself in second-story win
dow,on a street through which Joe was
sure to pass, and when Joe showed up
within easy buckshot range he called
out to him, "Hello joel"
Joe looked up, reached for his gun,
and tumbled over with so many holes

But about Scott of Ventura. Scott
and Joe had legal contest over an oil
claim, and Scott being discreet man
lodged that as subject of CONVERSE
ton whenever he met Joe. One day
they met in a saloon and drunk and
chatted amiably at the table. Joe led
the talk around to the oil-claim and
made some assertion about the records
that Scott thought was Inaccurate.
Scott is an explosive sort of talker.
His words pop out like shots in an oil
well and he can say more words to the
minute than anybody else on earth.
Without stopping to think or meaning
to start row he popped out: Joe,
your q blank-dash liar"
This is the way Scott tells the rest Of
1t. Before l could wink Joe had his
gun out and poked under my nose.
Scared? Well should say was. But

Scott, of Ventura-"Coal Oil Scott
lis the only man who was ever too
quick for Joe Dye SAYS the San Fran
cisco Examiner. He is tall. nervous,
active man, who may be seen any after
noon on Montgomery street. He came
from Pennsylvania a dozen or fifteen
years ago, and was one of the first to
discover and develop the oil wells of
Ventura.

doe was tall. handsome, picturesque
chap. pleasant enough to meet under
ordinary circumstances, but his temper
and his trigger finger worked too
tremendously to make him an alto
gether desirable acquaintance.
Once Joe had some trouble with the
postmaster of Santa Paula, and he con-
cluded that the official was not the
proper sort of person to have running
around loose. So he said he was 60
ing to shoot the postmaster some day.
and when the postmaster heard of that
he loaded up an old Henry rifle and
packed 1t about wherever he went.

What's the matterp" inquired.
I've been thinking again. I tell
you. my boy it doesn't pay an old man
to think. II he can remember without
thinking he's all right. but when he
gets to comparing the present with the
past he's in bad way. and he's sure
to get downhearted.
In 1851 l was prospecting in CAL

millions in it apparently. We didn't
have capital enough to work it, and so
we went up to Frisco to find a pur-
chaser. We found him. too. His
name was Moore, and he was a we'll
known character on the coast. He had
made a couple of millions working q
mine he had bought for $500. Well,
we convinced him we had a good thing,
and he gave us $500. 900 in gold for it.
l was afraid to deposit my share of it
anywhere, so l loaded it in flour bags
on a cart and drove down to San Jose.
In the hills back of the town was

was so situated that it couldn't be dis
covered except by accident.
Il buried the money in the corner
of the cave and went gleefully back
to San Jose. As soon as ] got;into

German
Syrup"

9. Gloger, Druggist, Watertown,
Wis. This is the opinion of a man
who keeps a drug store, sells all
medicines, comes in direct contact
with the patients and their families,
and knows better than anyone else
how remedies sell, and what true
merit they have. He hears of all
the failures and successes, and can
therefore judge: II know of no
medicine for Coughs, Sore Throat,
or Hoarseness that had done such ef-
fective work in my
coughs family as Boschee's
sora Throat German Syrup. Last
winter a lady called
Hoarseness, at my store, who was
suffering from a very
severe cold. She could hardly talk,
and I told her about German Syrup
and that a few doses would give re-
lief; but she had no confidence in
patent medicines. I told her to take
a bottle, and if the results were not
satisfactory would make no charge
for it. A few days after she called
and paid for it, saying that she
would never be without it in future as
q few doses had given her relief" G
