they had ever managed to get along
without her sunny presence.
''Bless her heart! She's a plumb lit
tie mother to every blasted galoot of
u.s." declared Hairy Bill.
"Ain't we a-civilizin', too?" said Sam.
''That's wot!' returned Charlie. Il

Bob gave Daisy lessons in riding,
and it was not long before she was ex-
pert enough to take frequent rides
down the wide valley to see the great
herds of cattle, where Bill, Sam and
Charlie watched.
If princess had visited them they
could not have displayed greater def
erence than they did toward little
Daisy Rainey.
Cards and 'bitters," however, were
finally resumed out on the ranges, but
always ION the sly" But, as Hairy
Bill said, "nary galoot of US has got
on a regular downright ole tear fur
two months. We're ci0izazln'-a little
slow, but sure!'
But Hairy Bills declaration seemed
little premature. He 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 it.
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
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 inherent leetle gal
Isl" said Hairy Bill, as the cowboys
fingered at the door while Mr.. Rainey
and Daisy hung over the wounded man
We've Jest materially oaaciuilised our fool
selves, that's wot!'
When Bob learned that it would be
long weeks, perhaps, before he could
even hobble about the house, he
groaned:

'Let any chap smoker at that an
I'll" and Bill placed his hand on his
hip.
"He materially dasn't, that's ALL"
agreed Bob as they stood surveying
their completed duties.
Daisy Rainey, at that moment seat
ed by her fathers side on westward
bound express, little dreamed of the
pains which two of the ranch hands,
rough but warm-hearted, were taking
for her. She was glad to accompany
her father, whom she had not seen
before for five years. However, the
change in her life rendered her
thoughtfully silent.
Daisy was lovely little girl of
twelve, with hair like the golden rip
pies of sunshine striking the cliffs of
the Rockies, and eyes as sweetly blue
as wild blue morning glories. Her
face was an intelligent, thoughtful
one, and many travellers gazed admir-
ingly after the young traveller and her
tall, broad-shouldered father as they
changed cars at Denver.
Her mother had died when she was
very young, and Daisy had gone to her
aunt. while Mr.. Rainey had gone west
and established cattle ranch. But
MIR. 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 punctuaI, 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
GLOW pretty!" 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.
"Oh, yes, think will, papa" she
answered, cheerfully.
It 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.
81 thank you so much, Bob" she
said to the cowboy, ''for making my
loom so nice.'
''That's all right, leetle 'un. Jest
SOS yer don't git lonesome" he re-
turned.
ooh. I 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.
eyes, I 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 heater and clean
err 'the hands" became after her ad-
vent. She was so useful in attending
to the little needs of Mr.. Rainey and
the cowboys that they wondered how

said, trying to look happy, but not
succeeding very we'll.
However, on the day before Thanks
giving the longed-for letter came. Its
contents were evidently sof very
pleasing nature, for Daisy went about
the ranch singing glad little songs,
perfecting her arrangements for
Thanksgiving.
And Bob, watching her, exclaimed
to himself: God bless her! It's a
plumb Thanksgivin' ter me ter jest see
her sunny face"
At Daisy's request he allowed Char
lie to trim his hair and shave his face.
though he declared: ''She's bound ter
make a regular dude of me-"
Thanksgiving day dawned bright in
the valley, and Rainey's ranch was
early astir. The cowboys were as
eager as schoolboys to help Daisy
make it a joyous occasion.
1t was almost dinner-tine when
Hairy Bill came driving up to the
ranch in the light wagon. There was
a motherly-faced woman by his side,
and Daisy ran out to welcome her.
The old lady kissed the child with
happy tears in her eyes, then she was
led into Bob's room.
"Mother!'' was tho one joyful word
he was able to utter as he clasped her
in his arms Glow did you happen to
come to see me, mother?"
'sIt's all that blessed child's doings,
Robert" she answered. ''She wrote
me such dear letter. telling me Of
your accident and inviting me to come
to see you and take Thanksgiving at
the ranch"
,"This is the happiest Thanksgivin'
o. my life!' cried Bob, as, half an hour
later. they were all seated around the
long ranch table eating of the good
things provided for the occasion.
''That blessed leetle 'un has done me
more good than er hull carload O.
preachers could a-done. When I
slipped, she didn't pass by on t'other
side, but staid right by me an cheered

tears in her eyes. ''I'm 80 sorry for
you. You must lie quiet, and I'll help

And she did help. Just how much.
she never knew, but poor, repentant
Bob did, and the others realized it fully,
too.
1t was always Daisy's cheerfulness
which REINFORCED the sufferers waning
patience. "she be plumb angel" he
would declare to the cowboys as they
stood over him.
Bob said Daisy one day, as she
stood by his bedside alone, ''what
troubles you? I know you are think
ing of something that makes you rest
less. Please let me help YOU"
"God bless yer, leetle 'un!" he cried,
using the old name he had given her.

swered. ''But it's no use ter think O.

"But, Bob, when people slip they
needn't 20 on slipping" said Daisy.
"You just try again. And I'll tell you
what. Well have Thanksgiving
right here at the ranch. You'll trust
me to manage it, won't you, Bob?"
God love yer, yes, leetle 'un,' cried
Bob. ''I'd trust yer ter manage Heaven
ITSELF"
est won't be like Thanksgiving at

on, "but we'll try to have thank
full time, and think all's for the
BEST" and she left him to impart her
ideas to her father, and seek his coop
Grafton in plan that lay very near
her warm heart.
There was certain letter over which
Daisy spent a great deal of pains, and
which was intrusted to Hairy Bill to
mail for her.
She watched anxiously for reply,
but the days went by, bringing none
to the little rural post Office.
Never mind, DEAR" cheered her
father, noticing her look of keen dis
appointment. 1.-The provisions I or
dered from Denver are here. Well

Hypnotic Surgery.

A remarkable hypnotic surgery
operation was performed at the Uni
versity by DR.. H. A. Parkyn, of Toron-
to University, assisted by Dean Sud
duth. The wife of a Minneapolis gro
Ger had tumor removed from under her
left ear. For 2l years the neoplasm
has been growing, but fear of drugs
prevented it's removal while the patient
was under ordinary anaesthetic, and
she continually grew worse. Under
the hypnotic influence she suffered no
pain whatever, and when the sill<en
bandage was placed around the morbid
swelling she did not know that the
operation had been performed.

A Big Loss.

E. D. Baldwin, of Detroit, met with a
heavy loss in Chicago last week. He
owns cattle ranch in Montana and
last week he went to Chicago with a
bunch of stock and sold them, receiving
in payment seven $1,000 bills and one
$500 bill. He received the money after
banking hours and put it in an inside
vest pocket-and soon took his train
out of the city. But in some manner
the greenbacks, when he came to look
for them, had disappeared. He arrived
home last Friday and his loss utterly
Frustrated him.

And the late red roses flame
Faded when the asters came.
All the autumn's red and gold
Flashed and spread and died away;
Seas OF vapor tossed and rolled
Round the hilltops dim and gray.
Latest bloom was dull and dead
When the Indian summer fed.
What of that? The radiant blaze
Shining on the cottage wall
Makes the autumn's latter days
Warmly welcome unto all.
Like parting sunset ray,
Comes at last Thanks giving day.
Then, with signs of goodly cheer,
See the pantry shelves arrayed-
Ruby jellies. crystal clear,
Rich preserves and marmalade;
And streak Of sunshine lies
In the row Of pumpkin pies.
All! the contrast! Who can tell
What the Pilgrim fathers bore
All the hardshtps that befell
Exiles on barren shore?
Yet their thanks to God were sent;
They with freedom were content.
We have corn and wheat and fruits,
Peace dwells with US all the day.
Who our liberty disputes?
Who can wrest our rights away?
Let us, then, our blessings heed,
And our thanks he thanks indeed.

able opinion, covering the points OF the
law raised in the arguments by the de-

Northern Pacific road was in the hands

Dastardly Attempt at Wholesale Murder II
Colorado-Illinois Strikers Have
the Sympathy Of Altseld.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 25.-The strik.
ing miners at the Pratt mines are held
responsible for a cowardly assassination
which occurred at that place Sunday
morning. A mob of masked men went
to the house of Walter Glover. miner
who had refused to strike, and called
him out, telling him that they were Of
fcers and desired to see him. Glover
opened the door, when volley was fired.
Glover was riddled with bullets, and
died instantly. His bed, wherein slept
several children, was also riddled, but
the children escaped by fleeing from the
house. The mob fed, closely pursued
by Deputies Hickman and Massey, who
were armed with rifles. A running fight
followed for half mile. One of the
murderers fell wounded, but the others
lifted him up and the entire party es'
capped to the woods. When Sheriff Nor
row arrived with reinforcements he ar
rested Con Sullivan, Jerry Hillery and
John Driver, three strikers, who were
brought here to Jail. Dogs that were
placed on the murderers' trail aided in
locating the men who were arrested
Other arrests will follow, as there we're
a dozen or more men in the mob. Great
excitement prevails at the Pratt mines.
The strikers are highly indignant over
the arrest OF the men, and held an in
dignatlon meeting.
