the kitten and kicked it up against

We will take our punishment like men.
But this action is without parallel in

railways or not. We shall make no
change in our methods, being o N
vinced that they r lerfectly legal,

unprecedented arrests"
Washington dispatches say the news
of the Indictment of Debs and his asso-
ciates was received with u~naisguised
satisfaction by the President and men,
bets OF his Cabinet.
The position of the government is that
officers of the body viii, h ordered the
boycott. Debs and others can be held
responsible for whatever has or may
grow out of it, whether any member of
the America an Railway Union is directly
involved in acts of violence or not.
This much was clearly made known
by the language of Judge Grosscup's
charge, which, though setting forth in
unmistakable terms the position CT the
Government. recognized the rights Of
the workingmen to organize for their
better advancement. He defined in
surrection against government and
plainly stated the limit to which labor
leaders should go. 1t is understood
that Attorney General Olney himself
outlined the plan of procedure. Presi-
dent Debs was not at all afraid OF the

strengthening isn't what it was some
years ago, says an Old-timer at the
business. The truth is the sheep-rais-
ers can't afford to pay much with the
low price wool is bringing. But even
at these low rates we can make more
than at anything else. We work in
crews and have a regular circuit that
we traverse every season. Our crews
consist of from six to twelve men. We
enter into a contract to shear so many
sheep a day-say 500 or 1000. We
have turned out LOO a day. | can
shear 100, and there is one in Il crew
who can take off l2a. We a make SIS
or Sc a day each, anyhow, now. Some
times we contract by the day to shear
fine sheep, and then the wages run all
the way from So to S. per day. And
when they want the sheep "stubble
shorn," that j., leaving the wool about
an inch long, 80 that the merchant Ear
examine it, we get fancy prices-say
ST.. so per head. This takes time and
skill, and one is doing we'll to put off
five or six head a day, though some
who are extra handy with the shears
can do much better.
We usually anchor on a big ranch,
where there are 10000 or 10000 head,
and corral them, putting them out in
W or three weeks. Sometimes sheep
raisers have bands brought to us, 1900
to 1000 in a band; sometimes we go
from ranch to ranch and clean them
up as we 90. We have travelled as far
as forty miles to a sheep camp. We
put the sheep on a platform twelve
inches high and the fleece is taken off
in a few minutes. The mar who is
ready and can take off his 100 doesn't
chop the wool, as a rule, as much as
the mar who takes off only 40 or so.
The buyer can ca lily detect the crop
that is we'll taken OFT. 1t makes a diff

Not Familiar with These.

Beside gaining considerable knOwl-
edge Of an agricultural kind from his
last summers experience as an anna
teur gardener, Robinson has learned
what a blessed thing it is to be mild
and considerable in criticising another
in a matter in which you are not an
expert yourself. Robinson had said
one day that he was going to plant
cabbages, and before he got home
that evening his wife, as a pleasant
surprise for him, bought twenty-five
cabbage plants, set them all out in
the garden, and then lay back and
chuckled to think how surprised dear
old Robinson would be when he saw
them. He was surprised.
Mrs. Robinson had set out the
twenty-five cabbage plants all in a
bunch, just as she had received them
from the seedman. Then Robinson
sat down on the lawn and laughed,
and asked Mrs. Robinson if she had
ever seen a full-grown cabbage, and
how she supposed twenty-five of them
could grow in a space three inches
square.
Mrs. Robinson retOrted with wom-
ans argument in similar cases. She
burst into tears and told Robinson he
was a near old thing, and if he
knew SO much he could just set them
out again himself, so there!
Robinson took a spade and dibble
and set them out. While doing this
he noticed that he turned up an ex-
traordinary number of small, dirty
white pulpy things, with green
sprouts sticking out at one end. They
looked unfamiliar, but he dug on
without thinking much about them
and when the twenty-five cabbages
were set out, each with a fair ais,
lance between it and it's neighbor, so
that it might without inconvenience
grow four feet in diameter, if it so
minded, he condescendingly called
his wife to come, that he might show
her how so simple a thing should be
done.
The first thing that caught Mis-.
RObinson's eye were the peculiar
dirty white pulpy things, and pOking
at one with her toe, she said,
"What did you dig those up for?:"
"Oh, those" replied the sapient
Robinson, "those, my dear, so far as
l can make them out, are a variety
of inedible fungus, although 1 never
saw any just like them before"
"Inedible fungus!" cried Mrs. Rob-
inson, with much feeling. "The idea.
Those are the beans Johnnie Davis
planted for me last Friday, and
they're just beginning to sprout, and
here you've dug them all up. Well,
/ may not know much about cab
bages, but l do know BEANS"

ART IN AM ERICA.
The Younger Painter Aroused to the Ne
cessity of individuality,

cessity of individuality.
John c. Van Dyke gives a careful
review CT painting al the Fair" in
the Century. Owing to the fact that
art education had to be obtained
abroad, W. are at the start influenced
by foreign elements, he says. The
influence is to our gain in craftsman
ship, but it is to our loss in original
ity. Partisan ideas and notions of
art may be better than our own, but
the point is, they are not our own,
and, if we repeat them, we are play
ing the parrOt-imitating, and not
creating. American painters are not
disposed to be servile followers. On
the contrary, the effort is toward be-
ing distinctly and individually them
selves, but artiStically they are ham,
pered by many Gallicisms or world
isms, just as politically a good piece
OF American legislation is checked by
forced consideration for some foreign
vote. In both cases there is a com.
promise not altogether pleasing to
either party.
We come nearer to having an
American school of art in landscape
than elsewhere. There is a decisive
note even from the younger men. In
fact, there is much hope to be placed
in the large band OF young landscape
painters at present working in this
country. They have skill, and as
they grow older they will gain the
conviction that our pictorial view is
the only n for them. 1t might be
added, without national pride, that,
as regards landscape, it is the best
n now extant in the schools, and
that it has little OF nothing to gain
from the view OF others.
Policy as well as patriotism should
induce an American to be an Ameri-
can, for there is little advantage in
trying to be anything else. The
chief value of a nations art, aside
from it's being good art, lies in its
nationality, its peculiar point of view,
its representation of a time, a cline,
and a people. We shall never have
any great art in America unless it is
done in our own way and is distinctly
American. We shall never be &C
counted great because of our doing
something like some other people,
nor by f%ashioning that which is best
in others into an electric cosmopoli-
taHism.
Happily our younger painters are
%rousing to the necessity of individu-
atty in their work. Year by year
their styles deepen, n in refined
color, another in pure line, another
in brush work, another in largeness
of conception, another in d~elicacy Of
sentiment. 1t is these added in
dividualities that produce nationality
in art when there is homogeneity in
fundamental thought and aim. We
have not just now so much Of the
latter as could be wished for, but we
are likely to come to it by degrees.
That there is to be great production
in painting in this country during
the next quarter Of a century is al
most a fOregOne conclusion, and it
cannot be doubted that our painters
will find American life their
strongest inspiration.

A Race with Il Seal.

One day as three sailors were re-
turning from a settlement on the
coast of Greenland, they were just
about to take to the small boat to geL
back to their ship, when n of them
espied a queer object at some distance
from the waters edge.
Bill" said he to his mates, what's
wrong with that Eskimo kicking up
his heels Over therc?"
"How can l tell? Better so and
ask him."
"Why, Bill, it amt a man at all,
but a seal, and" after a pause.
during which he had been watching
the curious O~bject--"seal it is. III
take your advice and 60 and see him."
"You have no time, Joe; we've
been too long already"
"Give me half an hour, Bill, and
I'll bring him back with me-" and
the man marched off toward the
creature, which really was a seal, ly-
ing on its back, basking in the sun.
Fortunately for the sailor the VIVID
was blowing from the seal, otherwise
the animal, whose hearing is of the
sbarpest, would have detected him
long before he could reach it. AS it
was, he was close to the seal before it
was aware Of his presence.
The moment it saw him it turned
on it's flippers, sent the man sprawl
ing in the snow, and ere he could re-
gain his feet was leaping furiously
seward. The sailor tried to catch
it, but he was hopelessly beaten in
the race, and when he returned to
his mates he was numerically chaffed
all the way back to the vessel.
To the would-be captor, moreover,
the matter might not have proved
such a joke as he intended it, for had
the seal found it's retreat to the sea
cut off it would have turned upon it's
pursuer and made a resolute fight for
freedom; for the seal bites viciOusly
when reused, as many a splendid sal
mon has discovered too late.
