A LITTLE DENSE.
A Drummer's Adventure in the Eastern
kentucky Hills.

"You may talk about your Georgia
crackers if you want!" growled the
man who represented the "gents" fur
nishing goods firm, as he crossed his
legs and began picking yellow clay
from the cracks of his shoes, "but I'm
here to tell you that the Eastern Ken
tucky hilligan is a dodo compared to
them!"
"What's soured on your appetite
-now?" grinned the shoe-house drum
pile of sale bills and looked at the G.
and o. scenery through the gloom of
Friday evening.
ly, Il left Greenbrier Monday for
some new territory, which l had been
told was very promising. II was-it
promised = and that's all it did!
Nothing but hills and mud-high wa
ter had wiped out the roads so COM

and worse than useless to seek in

breeches. At first l thought it was
simple, unadulterated cussedness =
but at last l had TO list it as sheer

"Whyp" said the shoe-house man, as
the speaker paused.
"Why? Why, by Joe! 1 was rec

Pointed and Practical.

A worthy resident of a Western
Maine town has passed hard winter.
He has been sick, other members of
his family have been i'll, and he has
reached nearly the bottom of his purse.
He always was a good, church-going
man and always did what he could to
help along the denomination with
which he is connected. One day one
of the younger men of the church hap
pened to meet the pastor and it oc-
Cured to him to say something like
this:
Il have been thinking a good deal
about Mr.. S. of late. He has had a
hard winter and is in almost destitute
circumstances. Don't you think it
would be good plan for the church
to get up pound party or donation
or something of the kind and help him
out littleP"
"Yes." responded the clergyman, 81

good plan. But Twas down to see Mr..

CATTLE sTAMPEDEs.
Slight Causes May Set the Herd Frautio,
and then Cowboys Must Ride Hard.

Speaking of Il stampede among cat
tle," said man from the foothills OF
the Sierra Nevada, cit is surprising
what a trifling thing will start one
that may cost the lives of one or more
cowboys and the loss of perhaps hum
dreds of cattle before it can be con-
trolled. One of the most serious
stampedes l ever heard of was the one
Bronco John Sullivan, the Texas cow
boy, tells about. He was coming up
the Texas trail one spring in company
with other cowboys, having in charge
a bunch of 1000 cattle. One of the
bows opened his tobacco pouch to get
Il chew The wind blew a shred or
two of the inecut out of his fingers.
The fugitive tobacco floated away and
lodged in steers eve. In moment
the eye began to smart, and the steer
got wild It's antics started others in
the herd, and in ten seconds the big
bunch was surging and dashing about,
out of all control. 1t was two days
before they got the herd working
quickly again. Two of the best cow
BOYS were trampled to death, and 400
head of cattle were lost.
Hail storms are greatly dreaded by
cowb boys on the trail, especially If they
come at night, when the cattle are
sleeping. If hailstone happens to
strike a steer in the eye, stampede is
pretty sure to follow. He springs to
his feet, and in thrashing around steps
on the tails of others. They jump up
in pain. The herd is alarmed, and be-
fore anything can be successfully done
to stay them the whole herd are off
like flash. The bark of a coyote
when everything is still at night has
stampeded many bunch of cattle dis
astrouslv. A blade of grass, carried
| along bv the wind, sometimes strikes
a steer in the eye. The pain that fol-
lows will sci him wild, and he can
soon have the herd on the run across
country at a OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES gait.
at is during a stampede that the
cowboy has work to do. His one great
object is to keep the flying herd to-
gether. He urges his mustang dead
against the advancing column of fran
tic cattle at the constant risk of his
| life, and works them gradually in a
circle. The cowboys all ride to the
| right around stampeding herd. Ii
they can get the cattle running IN a
circle the first important step in re-
gaining control of them is made.
| know of stampede when the cowboys
were obliged to ride around herd fol
a distance of over 200 miles before
they got it under control, and then il
was only twenty-five miles from where
the stampede started. In all that time
not one of the cowboys took a mo.
ment's rest or bite to eat. Such
things can't be thought of during
stampede"

The Turkey Entitled to a Seat.

A man going home from Boston on
a late train the other evening took one
seat, and placed beside him on the
other a large turkey minus wrapping
of any kind. A half-dozen men couldn't
find seats and stood good-naturedly in
the aisles. just as the train moved
out of the station a little, nervous
looking man came along. He asked
the man with the turkey to take the
bird up and give him the seat. The
man refused, whereupon the nervous
man attempted to move the turkey
aside himself. mo, you don't" said
the birds owner. "That turkey is 60

"You haven't paid for two seats" said
the other. red with rage. Haven't

lower prices on Carpets than they were
ever before sold for in Portage County

ssThere is reason in all things" and
our reason for this sacrifice in price is
that we want the room for our Fall

Now is your opportunity. You will
scarcely have another such an one in

purchases in the line of Carpets.

SESSION OF THE SENATE.
The Bill to Prom te the Safety of
Railroad Employees Comes CD.

The Bill to Prom 1te the Safety of
Railroad Employees Comes Cp.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 4-The Senate this
morning proceeded to consideration Of the
House bills on the calendar. The first taken
up was the bill to promote the safety or en-
ployes aud trave ers upon railroads by COM
peliing com non carriers engaged in inter
state commerce TO equip their cars with
automatic couplers and contin lous brakes,
and their locomotives with driving wheel
brakes.
At the suggestion Of Mr.. Harris the bill
was laid aside temporarily without debate,
Mr.. Harris stating his belief that its pas
sage would put into the hands of re- eivers
a majority OF the southern railroads
The consideration of House bills
was interrupted TO permit Mr.. Tel
Ter 20 report from the judiciary
committee a new bill to submit he
McGnrrahan claim to the court Of priv ate
land claims, and 1t was placed on the calen-
dRr.
Another interruption TO the consideration
OF the House bills on the calendar occurred
when Mr.. Butler asked leave to present
some business, aud when Mr.. Harris OBJ
jected, as he had already done to other
senators under like circumstances. a some
what sharp dialogue took place between the
two senators, aud the result was
that when the calendar was re-
sumed Mr.. Butler objected to each
case as it came up After that retaliatory
course had been followed up in half a
dozen cases by the intervention of several
senators, peace was restored aud the course
OF business went on.
The hour assigned Co the consideration of
the House bills on the calendar having ex-
pired, the conference report on the bill con-
corning testimony in criminal cases under
the Interstate commerce law was present ted
and agreed to. Mr. harris said that he had
received a telegram this morning from Mr..
Hill asking him not TO call up the quaran-
tine bill to-day because Of his necessary
absence. That bill was the next House
bill on the calendar. He asked
unanimous consent that consideration
OF the House bills on the calendar
be continued in the morning hour Monday
and that the quarantine bill shall not be
subject to objection. Mr.. Frye suggested
as an objection that Mr.. Hill had given
notice that he would move to take up the
bill TO repeal the Sherman act In the morn
ing hour Of Monday. After some discussion
this point was waived and Mr.. Harris gave
notice that he would Immediately on the
completion OF the routine morning business
on Monday, move that the Senate proceed
to consideration Of the quarantine bill.
The Senate then passed the Senate bill to
authorize the construction of a railroad
bridge across the st. Mary's river between
the states Of Florida aud Georgia.
Memorial proceedings in memory of
Messrs. Gamble OF South Dakota, Ford of
Michigan and Stackhouse of South Caro-
lima, late members Of the House of Repre-
sentatlves, were begun at O'Clock, and
aft eulogies on each of the dead repre-
sentatives, the customary resolutions were
agreed TO and the Senate adjourned until
Monday morning next at IL o'clock.
