Some men are very easily fright
ened by little dry weather in this wost.
ern country. We heard OF iarmer in
this county who, simply because it Ind
not rained as much this spring us he
, thought we should have, recently made
an agreement disrosing oil all Of his per
sonal property with the avowed Inten-
tion OF leaving the comfy and within a
few days this county was treated to q
heavy rain which removed all fears Of
the most timid tenderfoot in regard to
the crop question. After this heavy
rain this farmer was very much in fear
that he wonld not be allowed to keep his
personal property rs he was very apx-
ious to remain in the county. There is
no good reason why even a tender foot
should entertain fears us to the future
OF this county as mn agricultural county.
The men who take their laud and make
all Of their plass with a determination
OF making home for themselves and
then settle down to work and stick to
their land even II they once in awhile
have had year are the men who have
always made success in the west and
Phillips county is M exception in this
respect. Take the history of Phillips
county and. new ~ it is, it shows This to
be correct. Tie men who have stuck 10
their land and farmed and improved 1t
dis man shoult who expects to make it
his home, are the successful farmers or
the county. Every man who expects to
mike success in Phillips county or in
any other par. OF the west should re-
member that Wien he comes west he
must "cut tho bridges behind him." 1t
will not do to become frightened at every
partial failure of crop and go back to
stay few years with hls wife's folks
and then return TO begin over again.
When the buffalo grass Of Phillips coun.
ty is all turned under which. from

himself home in this county will be

THE SONG OF THE CAMP.

Give us a song = the soldiers cried
The outer trenches guarding,
When the heated guns OF the camps allied
Grew weary of bombarding.
The dark Redan, in silent scoff,
Lay grim and threatening under,
And the tawny mound Of the Malakof
No longer belched its thunder.
There was a pause. The guardsman said
1--WE storm the forts tomorrow
Sing while ye may another day
Will bring enough of sorrow
They lay along the battery's side,
Below the smoking cannon
Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde
And from the banks of Shannon.
They sang of love and not of fame.
Forgot was Britain's glory:
Each heart recalled different name.
But all sang Annie Laurie"
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until the tender passion
Rose like an anthem-rich and strong
Their battle eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
Yet, as the song grew louder.
Something upon the soldiers check
Washed off the stains of powder.
Beyond the darkening ocean burned
The bloody sunsets embers;
While the Crimean valley learned
How English love remembers.
And once again fire OF hell
Rained on the Russian quarters;
With scream of shot and burst of shell,
And believing of the mOrtars.
And Irish Nora's eyes are dim
For singer dumb and CORY;
And British Mary mourns for him
Who sang of Annie Laurie"
Oh. soldiers to your honored rest,
Your truth and valor bearing.
The bravest are the tenderest
The loving are the daring.
-Bayard Taylor.

Out of the center of this there appeared

veloped until in the place of the water
there appeared hissiIIg reptile. | was
amazed, l can assure you. but the trick
was not yet completed. Hitting the rep
tile upon the head with his wand. the
juggler took it up carefully and placed it
back in the glass.
GAS we looked it became transformed
into jelly, which in turn transformed
into greenish coiored water. Clearer
and clearer became the fluid until it was
of its original color, and then the iuggler
placed it to his lips and drank the entire
contents. That was the most wonderful
trick ever saw performed, and it is as
mysterious to me today as it was then
There was another trick performed the
same evening which was not so wonder
ful but was nevertheless remarkable.
"a woman with baby swung in a bag
around her waist entered the stage and
endeavored to balance ball upon her
nose. This she failed to do on account of
the hindrance afforded by the child. She
repeated the attempt, bnt met with no
better success than on the first trial.
The jugger all the.while was standing on
the side Of the stage, apparently furious
at the repeated failures of the woman,
and finally in rage he rushed toward
her and tore the babe away from her.
The woman screamed as she realized the
danger into which the child was thrown,
and the indignation spread to the audi
ence.
"Unconcerned apparently about the
babe, its mother or the audience, the Jug
gler took the child and threw it into a
bag which he held in his right hand
Then taking a firm hold on the neck of
the bag he whirled it over his head and
brought it down upon the floor with a
force that boded no good to the occupant.
At the same time the woman screamed
and fell on her knees, begging the juggler
to desist, but he told her to keep quiet
and repeated the performance.
"By this time Captain jenkins and
Captain Powers were<6n the stage and
we're struggling with the juggler, trying
in vain to get hold of the bag. The ma
gician pushed them to one side and
scowled augrily over their interference
and then forced them off the stage
Then, bowing and smiling to the audi
ence he placed his hand in the bag and
drew out a pair Of white doves, which
flew on both shoulders of the juggler. A
scream in the corner attracted our at
tention, and there in cradle we saw the
babe, whom we had supposed by this
time had become an immortal, laughing
and slapping his hands with joy"
And yet some people wonder if truth
is stranger than fction.-N. Y. Herald.

"Hello" is almost new word, as ii differs

and the searcher for information is referred
tn "halloo,' which is defined as an inter.

The forms gven-"halloa" and "hsl-
loo ARE not well adapted to the American
tongue, neither are they susceptible Of the
variety Of expression that can be given to
"hello." Probably the word "halloo" grew
out Of the call "hail, hoi !" which WAS al
most universally used by wayfarers in olden
time when halting at house along the way.
"Hail no the house." was another form In
quite common use in this section in early
times. This would quite naturally take the
form Of "halIoo. the house." However,

Tico Remarkable Feats of India's Clever
Jugglers.

An article in a recent edition on the
jugglers of India tended to throw discred-
it on the eastern wizards that have so long
been held in esteem. Whether or not
the tricks the jugglers perform are won-
derful is matter TO be determined in-
dividually. At any rate, in vague way
they have the reputation. Histories and
books are full of the accounts of the mi
raculous feats that these tricksters Of
India can perform.
And now comes Mr.. Kellar nine
teenth-century Broadway up to date ma
gician, who adds his testimonial to all the
rest as to the superiority of oriental over
occidental magic.
Mr.. Kellar, it seems, has also travelled
in India in a search for the wonderful
and succeeded in finding what he could
not understand.
Professor KelIar isn't very old in years,
but if you come to count up his expert
ences Methuselah isn't in it with him.
There are few places on the face of this
earth that he has not seen, and his trav-
els in the spirit world are also quite ex-
tensive. he has pulled rabbits out of the
pigtail of the heather Chinese on his ma
tive heath he has wruug silver dollars
from the nose of the Australian kangaroo
and has made flowers to grow for the
Zulu belle attired in her sable costume OF
bare skin.
"Some years ago" says the professor
II spent considerable time in India trav-
cling through the country and visiting
the principal cities. That is the land Of
the magicians, and nowhere on earth is
the art so thoroughly known. The In
dian magicians appear to have been born
for the business, and they have developed
their natural abilities to such a wonder
full degree that many of the natives be-
lieve them to possess supernatural powers.
Indeed one almost finds himself concur
ring with the general idea after he has
witnessed some of their feats.

Just returned from the Zulu war, took
a seat near the stage.
During the early part of the enter
tainment there were half dozen jugglers
who performed only ordinary tricks, and
then the star of the evening was intro
duced. He performed one of the most
wonderful tricks l ever saw. He took a
board and pla ed it on four glass gObletsr
thus elevating it from the floor. A
youugster sitting on the board was then
requested to place bis hands together
palms up. Then the juggler took glass
of water and poured it into the out.
