Col. b. f. Marsh seems to have
said more in congress already than
b. 7. Cable said in his entire term,
and The ARGUS does not like that at
all.-Morning Union.
The ARGUS does not stand alone
when it fails to relish such gibberish
as the congressman from this dis
trict was guilty of last Friday. 1t
carries out the sentiment of every
self-respecting citizen in the district
when it acknowledges the disgrace
of having such representative in
the halls of congress. Mr.. Gable as
a congressman, as citizen, is not
given to making himself conspicuous
unnecessarily. but his voice and in
tluence count when he sees fit 30 use
them, and it is in view of this fact
that the people of his old dis
trict appreciate all the more now
the golden value of discretion. If
Col, Marsh's services are to be reck-
oned by what he says, as the Union
evidently measures him. merciful
heavens defend his constituents from
the responsibility of his acts.
The colonel made an ass of himself
last Friday, and was the laughing
stock of the house, and the people of
the old Eleventh district ought to
feel-as indeed they do-like bowling
their heads in shame rather than to
laud him for talking" as is the

eve don't want to hurt you, but we must
have tive are going TO, too, and you
might as well give it up peace1bly."
Joe crouched like a cat for a spring. A
passing light was cast on the girls face.
Il was Miss Tracy. She was trying to
free herself from the mans grasp-while
one hand was buried in her pocket There
was a struggle, the girl was pushed rough
" to the pavement, her hand wrenched
from her pocket and the roll of paper par
tally torn from il, when with q quick
movement Joe wound his leg about one
Of the men, sending him to the ground,
at the same time he grabbed the papers
and dug his jacket knife deep into the
hand ofthe man who held them. II was
all so sudden, so instantaneous, that the
hand relaxed, and Joe WAS left in posses

up the nearest steps and pulled at the
door-bell.
"Kill the brat" he heard some one
mutter, as heavy blow came from be-
hind.
That instant the door opened, and "the
brat" fell across the threshold.
By and by, when he seemed to wake
up, he was lying in large room on the
softest of beds. tie tried to move, but
sharp pain went shooting up his back,
and he gave little gross. Some one
came to the bedside then, leaned over
him, put cool hand on his forehead and
stroke back his hair. He opened his eyes
wide-it was Miss Tracy.
She smiled down at him. "My brave
little knight she said. He tried to
speak, out his mouth was stiff, his lips
bruised ald sore.

She leaned over so as to catch the
words, then she placed the yellow book
on the pillow, SO that his cheek rested
against it.
'They are safe, Joe, and so is your
book"
"And the men ?"
They thought was some one else, Joe.
They did not care for my papers but your
action saved some one, for the men are
now caught. Listen, Joe" and she took
up the '-Daily Describer" from the table
and read the closing words ofa large &C
count.

minds one very much Of the popular
story of Gallagher, which story, it is said
is his fayOrite one.

it hurt him.

Why He Wept.

Even callous hearts are touched by the
sight of human sorrog. The other night
when the mercury was waving farewell
TO the zero mark saw an old man le4n-

depot He had no overcoat, and his
battered derby, that looked ike the re-
jecsed headgear Of SONS prosperous fell
low citizen, was pulled down close TO his
ears He caught my eye because he sp-
peared to be the embodiment Of discom-
fort and unhAppiness.
His wondering glance seemed 10 tell
ofno fixed abode; his appearance indi-
Gated lack Of human sympathy and
care. His general get up made me in
dignant at foreign missions. As looked
at him noticed tear trickled from one
corner Of his eye and fell upon his coat
collar. My heart felt warm. / STEPPED up
to him and said:
"A cold night, eOlonel?"
"Bi,ter, bitter" he replied.
"Look here" / said, "let me help you.
As stood here 1 noticed tear fall
from your eye
as that so?" he said hastily drawing
out a silk handkerchief Pardon me,
bat that is glass eye, and it gets chilled
in this weather and affects the tear

Just then fine carriage drawn By a
splendid pair Of horses dashed up, and
the old gentleman stepped out and With
"Home, Thomas" opened the door,
stepped inside and was driven away.
While unused, the radiator sizzled.-

fever a man deserved the plAudits Of
a busted community il was Tom MaSee.
A humble clerk in the RstaIe Pcs. or
fee he took up the work when the PJss-
master resigned the cares Of office, and
while business houses and sheep firms
went crashing to the wall all over Teton
county, Magee held her nose in the mid
die Of the stream, and piloted the Robare
Post Office safely through the dangerous
rapids.
By discharging all the unnecessary
force about the place, killing the oiii:e
cat to save feed, and giving a beautiful
Anheuser-Besch chrome or a drink Of
Msgee's consumption cure with each
sale ofpostAl goods. Magee worked up
such trade in postage stamps with the
Blaekfeet and Piegans of that vicinity,
that the Robare Pos. Office was plsced
on solid footing and to-day stands
proudly the only solven. institu ton in
all that section.
