organize for business. Chairman VIM.
Stewart appointed committees and a re-
cess was taken to prepare: reports. We
have not received the resolutions adopted
by the convention. but one we know de-
nounced chronic Office seekers and de-
clared that no man who was seeking
office should have it. This was unani-
mously carried, and when later on. DR..
Howard rose and stated that he was a
candidate for the treasurership. he was
referred to this resolution. for which he
himself had voted. and by whose terms he
had but now barred himself from the
field. The DR.. took his medicine-not
very gracefully. but it h~as-unlike some
other medicines-eRected a cure. and we
understand he has seen the error of his
ways and joined the--party.
There was little scrapping over the
nominations, and in a short time. the
following ticket was placed before the
people:
Auditor. Thomas Bowerman.

With many of the:candidates we are not

thoughtfully silent.
Daisy was lovely little girl Of

face was an intelligent, thoughtful
one, and many travellers gazed admir-

Probably Talked TO the Lions.

Fired by the example of Madrid
barber, two French Figaros have been
practising their art in den of lions.
At Levallois-Perret, outside Paris, a
bold barber from Avenne dc Clichy
went in among the lions of the Juliano
menagerie and not only shaved their
tanner but eombed, brushed and fixed
up his hair in the latest capillary style.
The lions looked on with an apparent.
ly interested air during the operation,
which lasted twenty minutes. They
began, however, to show some signs of
impatience and perhaps hunger as the
barber was finishing. When he left
the cage with the tanner, in order to
bow his acknowledgements to the pub
lie, the lions, regretting no doubt his
departure, began to roar. Another
barber has performed the same feat in
the Laurent menagerie at Vichv. lie
carried out his contract without finch
ing, although the animals were in a
very excited condition, and among
} them was dangerous lion called
DArtagnan, after one Of the heroes of
the elder Dumas DArtagnan re
quently evinced q desire to have a
MUNICH at the barber, but the eyes of
the soaped and lathered tanner kent
him in check.

When Bob learned that II would be
long weeks, perhaps. before he could
even hobble about the house, he
groaned:
"lt's er punishment, boys, fur goin'

back on that thar covenant ter civil

1t was always Daisy's cheerfulness
which REINFORCED the sufferers waning

would declare to the cowboys as they
stood over him.

stood by his bedside alone, "what

Mr.. Rainey's sister had died, and hav-
ing no female relatives to whom he
cared TO intrust his Daisy, he was
bringing her back with him to stay at
the ranch until different arrangements
could be made.
Bob was punctual, and met them at
the station with the light wagon,
drawn by span of dashing ponies.
The sparsely-settled plains, stretch
ing away from the foothills to the
eastward, and the great Rockies, rising
purple and vague in the west. were all
inexpressibly wonderful to the east
ern-bred child
How prettyr" she would exclaim,
feasting her eyes on the landscape
views as they rode along.
And do you think you'll be happy
away out here, Daisy?" her father
asked, anxiously.
"0h, yes, think will, papa" she
answered, cheerfully.
1t was with intense satisfaction that
Bob observed the delight which Daisy
expressed in the Navajo blankets, the
flowers and the illustrations which
had been arranged for her.
II thank you so much, Bob" she
said TO the cowboy, "for making my
room SO nice"
THAT'S all right leetle un. Jest
SOS yer don't git lonesome" he re-
turned.
"Oh. | WON'T" and her innocent
laughter rang cheerily through the old
ranch. I'm going to be busy. That's
the way to keep from getting lonesome.
You're the cook of the outfit, aren't
you, Bob?" she asked
Yes, ! engineer the hash depart
ment," he replied.
well, I'll help you cook for the men.
Then I'm going to sew for you and
papa" she declared.
And, true to her word, Daisy did
help with the cooking, and it was re-
markable how much neater and clean
or "the hands" became after her ad-
vent. She was so useful in attending
to the little needs of Mr.. Eainey and
the cowboys that they wondered how
they had ever managed to get along
without her sunny presence.

Bob gave Daisy lessons in riding.
and it was not long before she was ex-
pert enough 10 take frequent rides
Down the wide valley to see the great
herds of cattle, where Bill. Sam and
Charlie watched
II a princess had visited them they
could not have displayed greater def
erenee than they did toward little
Daisy Rainey.
The influence which she exercised
over those rough fellows in restrain
ing them from indulgenees in their
old reckless habits was as strange as
it seemed powerful Perhaps it was
her motherless condition, together
with her isolation from all female So
eiety, that appealed so strongly to
their hearts, rough but true, and made
them so eonsiderate and often almost
tender in their attentions TO her.
Cards and "bitters," however, were
finally resumed out on the ranges, but
always ION the sly" But. as Hairy
Bill said, mary galoot of us has got
on a regular downright ole tear fur
two months. We're eirilisih'-a little
slow, but sure."
But Hairy Bill's declaration seemed
little premature. lie did not realize
what stubborn things old habits are.
nor how weak is human will to resist
temptation when once we begin Civ
ing way to little things.
One autumn day the restraint which
Daisy's influence had held over her
fathers cowboys was rudely broken.
Payday came, and the cowboys
yielded to the pressure of old habit,
rode over to old Purdey's saloon in
Deer Track canyon, and had day
of il.
They then rode past the ranch,
swearing, shooting and behaving as
wildly as party Of Apaches.
The wild ride soon terminated. Bob's
pony was fiery, and the bacchanalian
shouts maddened him. AS his rider
was discharging his revolver into the
air he tore away and leaped madly over
a rough bluff, leaving Bob badly
bruised on the jagged rocks below.
They were sober enough when they
picked the poor fellow up and carried
him to the ranch.
"W're plumb unfitten ter be in ther
house whar that innercent leetle gal
is" said Hairy Bill, as the cowboys
fingered at the door while Mr.. Rainey
and Daisy hung over the wounded man.
