the music is really good. 1t is not the
sort of music to be played in slow
time, as the resonance is not enough to
carry long notes, but for ordinary
work-a-day popular airs it is quite as
good as the jews harp, and far better
than the mouth organs with their
dreadfully grating chords 80 Golden

NEW DIPLOMATS.

Our Representatives In Turkey, Brazil and
Colombia.
Alexander w. Terrell of Texas, the
new minister 10 Turkey, is a native Of
Virginia and about "a years of age. His
family removed from Virginia 10 Mis-
souri, when he was an infant, and he was
educated and admitted to the bar In the
Muddy River State. He went to Austin
in 1853 and was elected judge Of
the seccnd judicial district In 1881.
Upon the expiration OF his term Of Office
he entered the Confederate army as .
lieutenant colonel and was afterward
made q colonel. He was q brigade COM
mander when the war closed. He has
since then served two terms in the state
senate and made q reputation as an
orator Of briiliancy and force.
Thomas L. Thompson Of California,
who has been appointed minister to Bra
xil, was born in Charleston, w. Va, May
81, 1888. He went to c~alifornia In 1856
and started the Petaluma Journal, sub
sequently buying out the Santa Rosa
Democrat, which he has edited and pub
lished for more than 80 years. He was
elected secretary Of state in 1882, and be-
fore his term Of Office had expired was
elected to congress, in which body his
father and grandfather had served be-
fore him-his grandfather in the Seventh,
Eighth and Ninth congresses and his
father in the Thirtieth. In 1888 Mr..
Thompson was a candidate for re-elec-
ton to congress, but was defeated.
Since then he has devoted himself to adj
vocating the cause of tariff reform in the
columns Of his paper, and he is said to
be largely responsible for the election OF
a Democratic representative from his
district to both the Fifty-second and
Fifty-third congresses.

A Cowboy District Attorney.

Every body in the Panhandle knows
Lorenzo Dow Miller. Better than that,
every body likes him and admires him.
Dow lives at Panhandle City and is
district attorney, and rules over twen-
ty-nine counties. He is genius
Born in Texas, he went to the Pam
handle years ago, when the Indians
were still in the country. His capital
consisted of an unusual amount of
common sense and six-shooter. He
went out on the plains as cowboy,
and has punched long horns all the
way from Lost Valley to the neutral
strip. Around his camp fire at night
he pored over an old volume of Black
stone. Before very long he bought
some more books. Honest, sober and
industrious, he made friends as fast as
the prairie grass grows in the spring
or yearling runs in stampede. He
astonished the world one day by an
nouncing his candidacy for district at
torney. He astonished the world on
the day after the election by having
beaten W. II. Woodman, his opponent.
From that time Dow-has gone on un-
| til he is invincible in his district. One
of his arguments, made before Greer
county jury before the vernacular of
the ranch had given way to the polish
of the effete east, was as follows;
Gentlemen of the jury, look at that
prisoner. His phiz is dead tough. He's
a thief, and a sneak thief at that.
Look at those knots on the back of his
head. They are the bumps of cussed-
ness. How I came to know is, L trav-
eled with circus once and got on to
the racket. Now want to give you a
confidential stiff and drop few points
into your system. If you turn that
feller loose the bars of every ranch in
this county will be down before Sun
day night and some fine steers will be
lost"
He let the case go and the man got
two years.
You must know Miller to appreciate
him. You must hear him tell how he
bluffed judge out of fning him for
contempt by threatening to attach the
aforesaid Judge as witness in Hans
ford county and thus compel him to
go 200 miles across the country in the
snow -GGL7,estO31 Ne2DS
