today en- route to Greenfield, to per.
feet a local organization at that place.
He is very enthusiastic over the pros

in this district for the home estimating
it at $4,000. He SAID he had re.
ceiVed letter from DIR. Hill, of jas
per county who is confident of raising
$4,000 in that county for the home.
While Mr. Bronaugh was talking in q
general way of the home anu the con-
tributions for such, he said an ex-
union soldier at Hisginsville gave
$500 to the home.
Mr.. Bronaugh in referring TO the
funds to be raised in this (the
TWELFTH district, he said ne was
assured of three thousand, and accord,

people to raise that figure to twenty
thousand. He is an enthusiastic

dering array of French dishes,

Stanley experienced in the dark lab

wants to sample everything written
down, but of course he can not.
When plate of peach pie is placed
before him, he wishes he had ordered
small oyster pie, and then he is in
perplexing doubt as t. the relative
merits of angel food and orange
layer cake, and decides on
picked onions. If he takes big
cut of venison he can't eat as much
boned turkey as he desires, and when
he gets milk pig stuffed with baked
apples, he is sorry that be didn't

fancy bill of fare is pretty thing to
ponder over. but very poor one to
set a mans mind at ease or quiet his
nerves.

Yesterday morning two negro men
were passing down Ohio street, near
Main, and just behind them BAZoo
representative was hurrying along.
One o! the negroes was gesliculating
and telling his colored companion of
how, a few minutes before, he had
seen hawk pounce down upon an
English sparrow and gobble it up in
the twinkling of an eve. "Ye-sur,
dat old hawk jes slipped right down
on to dat leetle sparrer and caught
him quick as lightnin'. De leetle
sparrer, he hollered, quit, quit bus
dat old hawk was mean and hungry,
and he didn't pay no 'tentiOn to Mr..
Spsrrer." The story was tod with
much gusto and in sn old negros
inimitable manner. 1t suggested to
the BAzOo representative that the
English sparrow is bod marauder,
himself, and deserves but little pity
from either his feathered fellows or
from man.

man L. B Young left this city for q
holiday visit down in Southwest Mis-

Arkansas. Last evening he returned,
having had delightful sojOurn with

fore. 1t had been twenty. nine years
since he was last in that section. He
says that he attended an old-fashiOned
backwoods debating society, a country
dance, such as were In vogue in the
western pioneer days, and even heard
an old time sermon, but he failed to
get that bear, a slice of which he
promised to the BAZoo staff. The

A cord of wood in the winter sea-

and stored away it costs the consumer
S. or more. This is rather expensive
fuel, and the consequence is that coal
is used instead in vast quantities.
Now to a person who has to buy cord
wood in this city, the following ad.
vertisement from a recent number OF

at Potsdam, New York, will seem
rather curious reading:
