The Story of a Book Clerk.

Mark Twain told = good story
the other day. 1t Illustrated his
point that all the clerks in our
bookstores are not the best informed
in literary matter.
The humorist's wife and q friend
recently went into a bookstore, in a
city Of good size. not many miles
from New York.
Accusing a clerk, Mrs. Clemens
said that her friend desired to Sc
cure copy of Taine's Ancient
Regime"
a" Beg pardon, what book did you
say"
Mrs. Clemens repeated the author
and title Of the book.
Going to the rear OF the store the
clerk soon returned. only to inquire:
" May I ask you to repeat the name
of the author?"
Why, Taine, repeated Mrs
Clemens, becoming a little an
noyed.
Assuming an air Of superior
knowledge, and looking at his Gus
toner with piteous glance Of
sympathy, he ventured 10 Mrs.
Clemens:
Pardon me, madam, but you
have the name trihe wrong. You
mean Twain-not Tame"
1t takes Mark Twain to tell the
story.

An, Every Thus.

Each man thinks all men mortal
but himself. Each merchant thinks
the others are more likely TO fall
behind in the race than he. Prin-
ters' Ink gets q good drive at some
self-eomplacent business men after
this fasion: 81 am at the head of
the trade; why should / adver-
tise?' said prominent manufac
turer OF cocoa. He was sure that
he was right. The majority of his
business friends agreed with him.
He might as well have said, 1 am
in good health; why should l in
sure my life? But none of them
looked at it in that way. Asleep in
his feeling of security, he did not
realize the necessity of erecting a
fertilization OF advertising around
his business, and although he had
a grand start of all his competitors,
younger houses grew more active
rs he grew older, foreign eompeti-
ton came in despite the tariff, and
his declining years were mortified
by his taking second place; next,
third place; finally, fourth. fifth
and sixth place in mercantile rank"

HALF.3REEOs CAN'T HOLD LAND.

PIERRE, S. D., Dec. 21.-Great
excitement was created here today
by advices from Washington to the
Pierre land office that the assistant
attorney general had decided that
Jane Waldron, a half.blood Indian
woman, was born citizen Of the
United States, and that her claim
that she is an Indian by virtue Of
being born of an Indian mother
cannot be allowed, and neither can
she longer be permitted to draw
rations and annuities or receive
lands in severaltv. These half
bioods like Mrs. Waldron have
occupied all Of the choicest and
most valuable tracts on the lately
coded Sioux lands, some which
lying opposite Pierre, have already
advanced many thousands of dol
lars in value. The land office has
been flooded all day by applications
from whites to contest these claims
Of the half-breeds taken under the
severalty act. At least 100000
is involved.

of the taxpayers, and the other
would be enabled to attend cour,

The Leader thus admits tina,
court expenses would be lessened
by county division, and that all
persons having such business
would be benefited. 1t also says
that no one would be benefited
but town site boomers and chronic
litigants." Now if you have court
business at Boise City, YOU are of
necessity, according to the Leader,
"chronic litigant." II you can
attend court at much less expense
you are certainly benefited, but as
none but "chronic litigants" can be
benefited, you cannot go to Boise
City on legal business with being
classed as such. Every man who
has ever attended court at Boise,
under the above reasoning is a
chronic litigant." You travel
from 50 to 100 miles, which, ow-
ing 70 our lack of proper transport
tation facilities and the inacces.i-
bic location of the county seat,
usually takes you two days. You
are compelled to lay in Nampa
from one to twelve hours in both
going and returning. You find
Boise City crowded (Boise hotels
are always crowded) and you pay
81 night fer single bed and
other living expenses in proper
ton. You are detained day after
day upon your own expense. and
after YOU have mortgaged your
farm to pay your enormous bills.
you are called chronic li,igant"
and held up to public ridicule and

who submit 10 the most shameful

they cannot afford to demand their
rights a, the hands of the law.
The expense OF a hearing a, Boise
City, especially If witnesses are
required. is simply enormous. and
ii they do attempt to enforce the
few rights granted them under the
law, they are chronic li,igan.s
Farmers in the country are forced

HIBERNAT1oN OF SQUIRRELS.

The idea that squirrels remain torpid
through the winter is not sustained by
facts. Recent observers, on the con-
trary, report that squirrels have often
been seen abroad during severe weather
in winter. 1t is suggt sted that, like
many other wild animals, they prob
ably do sleep more in winter than in
summer, but that they are continually
waking up and taking food. Repro
duction takes place before warm
weather, newly-born squirrels having
been found as early as March 21st.
