THAT HYENA ROAST.
All Ready For the Judge, But tho Land
lord Got Left.

fora NiOt Lott
AS we drove along over South Caro-
lima highway we encountered circus
menagerie on the move and when clear
of it we came upon dozen men stand
ing around the dead body of hyena.
The animal had died in his cage and
had been hauled ont on the ground. He
was old and faded and his fur rubbed
off in spots and the circus people de-
cidcd that the pclt was not worth
taking. The party was about to move
on, when up rode the proprietor of a
county hotel about four miles farther
down the road.
Look here, gentlemen" he said,
when the incident had been explained
to him, "would yo' hev any objections
to my cuttin' off a hind quarter of that
hycna and takin' it homc?"
"Of course not, but wha: can You
want of it?"
"Wall, Jcdge Ridley, of this circuit,
will be along to-day and he will stop
with me for dinner The jtdgc is a
might odd man. He'll ride up to the
hoss-blocl about half past II o'clock

ledge is odd and want to please him. y
He was told to take the whole body
if he wanted it, but he contcntcd him
self with n quarter, and was in happy
frame of mind as he rode on with us.
We were booked to stop at his place for
dinner, and we got around there just
before the Judge and his white mule
came into view down the dusty road.
All were anxiousy awaiting when his
honor rode up at jog trot, stopped at
the horse-blocls and called out:
"lIcllo, the tavcrn!"
"IIcllo, jcdgc!" replied the landlord,
as he stepped out into view.

Brick and Adobe Combined to Excellent
Advantage
To cheaper the cost Of buildings
erected with brick walls, 1t has become
the custom in Utah to build with brick
and adobe combined. The exterior Ia
laid of brick in the usual way, emitting
the courses of headers, which are un-
necessary, and this part of the wall is
usually the thickness of single brick,
pr about four inches. The brick is
backed by from one to two layers OF
adobes, according to the strength Of the
walls desired. First, eight courses Of
brick are laid, and these are backed
with six courses Of adobes, the brick
laying four courses to the foot and the
adobes three, so that eight courses of
brick and six Of adobes come level on
top. To tie these together, strips of
thin strap-iron an inch wide and about
one foot long, with the ends for an inch
doubled fiat to secure the hold are laid
diagonally across the wall, one piece to
each brick, and more If considered nee
essary at the corners. Eight courses

Something New I'm Hand

Among rich and artistic novelties in
the shops arc the new handbags, stu
dies from Hungarian and old Austrian
pouches. These bags are copied with
fidelity from their old models and are
made of oozc and other quaint feathers,
and of genuine old brocades and other
antique stuffs. They are specially de-
signed to be worn with the picturesque
Russian costumes now in vogue. Each
bag is an individual study in itself and
no two are duplicates. A charming one
in brown ooze leather is decorated
with gilded coins copied from an old
Hun coin showing a grotesque head.
The bag is strung on narrow ribbons of
gilded silver, and, like all these antique
pouch shapes, is made up of group of
smaller bags attached to larger one

Caius Marius, the great general, was
once in a camp when man of repute

said: "If you are indeed a great gener-

Marius was not to be persuaded at

A common custom when putting out

Lawrence Barrett.

The late actor, Lawrence Bar
rett, was troubled with a mala-
dy Of his throat some years be-
fore his death, which finally
resulted in such an enlargement
Of the glands that they stood
out on each side of his neck
something like the wattles of a
turkey. He went to England
and had them removed, but the
result must have been fatal, for
it no doubt lead to his death.
1t shows how prone actors are
to these throat maladies. In
fact, when they die from this
cause, it is taken as a matter of
course, and it excites little sur
prise, and yet there is no more
necessity of their giving away
to throat troubles than there is
for any other class of people
dying from this cause. If they
will take Reid's German Cough
and Kidney Cure when annoy
ed by a tickling in the throat
or hoarseness, they will expe-
rience immediate relief. 1t has
no equal for maladies of this
sort. For sale by all druggists.
