handling guns, send you digest of
same:
Empty or loaded, never point gun
toward yourself or any other person
When a-field, carry your gun at the
half cock If in cover, let your hand
shield the hammers from whipping
twigs.
When riding from one shooting ground
to another, or whenever you have your
gun in any conveyance, remove the cart

easy to replace them. If muzzle load
er, remove the caps, brush off the nipples
and place wad on each nipple, letting
down the hammers on wads-simply re-
moving caps sometimes leaves a little
illuminate on the nipple. and blow on
the hammer when down discharges it.
Never draw a gun toward you by the
barrels.
More care is necessary in the use of a
gun In q boat than elsewhere, the limited
space, confined action and uncertain mo-
ton making it dangerous at the best. IF
possible no more than two persons
should occupy boat. Hammerless guns
are constant danger to persons boat

ingly stale and silly women and mice
paragraph which has been going the
rounds OF the papers, with divers and
sundry changes rung on it, ever since

woman as she opened the mousetrap

into the jaws OF number of hungry kit
tens. II wonder who started it any,

are afraid of mice, no doubt, but never
saw woman make herself more ridicu-
Ous over a mouse than u certain man
did when one of these harmless little
creatures scooted up the leg of his trou-
sers.
Il don't imagine any one would feel
especially comfortable with any such
foreign element meandering around ones
preserves; but why women and mice
in particular, is what don't understand,
think there are very few housekeepers
but what have frequent occasions to
come in contact with rats as well as
mice, and, as far as can see. they seem
to survive-at all events. never heard
of anybody dying from fear of them.
suppose that the mouse paragraph must
be near akin to that of the mother-iu-
law. Be that as it may, both are so
threadbare and faded and frayed out

ice that it would be a work of mercy
for some benevolent and intelligent para
grapher to get up new supply of am

The Use of the Word Tele,atbv

The term telepathy must not be in

term not yet in common use must be
employed when mental phenomena-in-
fuences of mind on mind-not generally
seen to be closely related have to be
classed together and, if possible
brought under one law. The familiar
term though transference" has much
too limited IL meaning. And 'telep-

and reared on farm. But from his early
years he had an ambition to be u lawyer.
Opportunities to get an education and a
start in life were altogether lacking. The
future seemed to offer nothing but round
of toll on the farm. The years sped along,
and at twenty three Lynch found himself
married, with no fortune and with no
education, except that which he had been
able to acquire by his own efforts, study
ing at night by the light of an old oil lamp.
For four years he led a rather queer life
Summers he was engaged clearing a large
tract of land of it's virgin forest, task in
volving infinite toll and application. Who
ever has in the old days of the middle state
region struggled with the obstacles to agri-
culture which nature placed on the soil,
whoever has felled trees, grubbed under
brush, rolled logs, burned piles of trunks
and branches, pulled roots and by main
strength wrested the land from its tena-
cious possessors, will appreciate Mr.
Lynch's work during those four years. In
the winter he taught school, and winter
and summer his evenings were devoted to
self education. You see he had never given
up his ambition to be n lawyer After
serving term in the legislature he studied
law, opened an Office, prospered, was elect
ed district attorney, and finally came to
congress by more than 5000 majority in
district which at at SIC SIC previous election had
given nearly 5000 majority for the oppo-
sition party. So it seems it sometimes
pays even a lawyer to be known as Honest
Tom"

mentally. He is six feet tall, weighs 200

Would that there were more like him in

If Tom Lynch becomes known as the
man who looks like Henry Ward Beecher,
Congressman Bryan, of Nebraska, will at
tract attention as the man who looks like
Samuel j. Randall. Bryan is young man

Out west they think Bryan the greatest

they are looking to him to show the resi-
dents of the effete east what real eloquence

me something about Bryan in his own in

days that we meet with real oratory, be-
cause it is composed at once OF eloquence,
simplicity and magnetism. Eloquence and
even magnetism are not very rare among
Americans, but simplicity is rare indeed.

he has all these qualities. He is one Of
the most remarkable men we have ever

and SO rapid was his promotion. Enlist
ing as private, he rose in rank with every
battle, and finally found himself brevet
brigadier with three serious wounds in his
body He has been very successful law
yer, and last summer confirmed his reputa-
tion as fighter by participation in a sem
sational contest for congress. Two mem
bers of the last house, General Grosvenor
and Judge Thompson, were rivals for the
Republican nomination against Enochs.
Two conventions were held. each sitting a
week or more and Enochs finally won on
the 449th ballot.

and Mr.. Scott concluded it would be a
good thing for him to know the German
tongue. He made systematic and per-
sistent study of German language and
literature, and has become very popular
with his Teutonic neighbors. Mr.. Scott
has the face of a fighter. Out in Illinois
they called him the Democratic bulldog.
His character is in some respects like his

as he is. With all his earnestness he has a
pleasant wit, and many of the best sallies
of the campaign came spontaneously from
his lips Nature has gifted Bryan with
remarkable face--such face as could be
carved on a coin and seem in place. He is
tall, with good figure. a strong head set
on a pair of broad shoulders. He is a
young man, now only thirty one, and worth
