and I didn't hold him responsible. Say,
now, without any mo- foolishness, don't
you want to buy b'ar?''
Steve placed his hand on post to steady
himself. He looked at the mountain man
with all the contempt he could throw into
his watery eyes, and then, still under so
strong restraint that the baggy knees of
his trousers quivered, thus delivered him
self: ,''.~~
II am tryin to make an honest Twin, and
hope to join the church some day, but if
you don't go away from here I'll hurt you,
and I'll make it pint of hurtin you
mighty bad. Do you hear?"
"Oh, yes, hear, and ruther than have
any difikilty I'll harken, but do hope
that befo' you join the church and befo'
e;day is over, for that matter, you may
change yo' mind about this bar. Get ep,
boyp' He swung his hickory and dealt the
mule a decisive blow.
/ Business was dull, and Steve nodded and
dreamed as he sat on the veranda He was
aroused by noise, and looking up he saw
that the mountain man had again stopped
at the gate. ~ 81
Look here" Steve yelled, now under
very little restraint, thought told you to
go on away from here. %
You did tell me, and did go away, but
that didn't keepme from comm back again.
Il have been to nearly every place in: this
town, and nobody don't seem to want a
bar, and the fact has begun to crawl into
my mind that the bar market down here is
pretty dull. Down yander jest now the
thought struck me that arter all you mout
want real bar, and as I am willin to help
you out with yo' wants will let you have
this here one for $1O''
Steve went out to the gate. He put his
elbows on wheel of the wagon, and look
ing hard at the mountain said:
II have been very kind to you"
Il haven't made that diskivery, but il you
have been kind to me I'm much obleeged. .,
Il have been kind to you, and now want
to tell you what Pm goin to do. Pm goin
to maui YOU s#sszz5
And he did maui him. He snatched the
mountain man ont of the wagon and wal
lowed him in the road. And during the
performance the bear sat IN the wagon and
looked on with an difference complete in
every detail The mountain man climbed
back to his seat as soon as Steve granted
him that privilege. snd gathering up his
hickory said: After all, Ireckonyou know
yo' own mind best. Don't reckon you real
ly do want to buy 8 bar. Good day. sahi,,

The Effect of Poor Roads on the Farmer'
Profits Briefly COnsidered

The Effect of Poor Roads on the Farmers
Profits Briefly Considered.
When the ordinary man discusses the
transportation question, he almost in
variably forgets one very essential fea-
ture of the problem. He has a perfect
right to scrutinize the fraction of cent
which the railways or the steamers
charge the farmer for hauling his grain
from the nearest station to the market,
but it seldom occurs to him to ask how
far the farmers barn is from the near
est railway station, what sort of roads
he has, how heavy load he can haul,
what time he can make-in a word,
how much per ton per mile it costs him
to get his grain to the railway station.
And yet this is an integral factor in
the problem. Grumble at railway rates
as we will, the fact remains that the
railways move ton Of grain one mile

A Mountaineer's Revenge.

One of the most striking characters that
ever lived in the character gathering COM
munity of Hot Springs, Ark, was old
Stephen Rutherford. He kept a sort of
roadhouse, which he designated as Bear
Park, and made his living by administer
ing to the thirst and catering to the amuse-
ment of the wayfaring man. The amuse-
ment consisted of black bear-old, lazy
and flea bitten. This animal, advertised as
of most furious disposition, was kept
chained to a tree in the back lot, and at
evening, when the accommodating dusk
threw a hiding shade over the BEARS most
striking faults. e., laziness and flea bites
old Steve would announce to his guests
that he was now about to engage in the
dangerous feat of wrestling with the fero-
cious monster from the Mississippi swamps.
Those who knew the trick drank their beer
in unconcern, but those who did not paid
rs cents and passed into the back lot to see
the desperate encounter.
One afternoon, when old Steve was sit
ting on his veranda, man from the noun
tains came along, driving red mule and
white steer hitched to shaky and creaky
wagon. In the wagon there were few
small cabbages and black bear.

The mountain man gathered up his hick

with the appearance of having changed his

Steve and said:

A Scheme For Good Roads.

There is growing popular demand
for improved roads-a demand which
is fully justified upon economic and So
cial grounds. Therefore desire to rec
ommend measure by which tramps
and vagabonds, as defined by statute,
may, upon conviction, be sentenced in
the different counties at the discretion
Of the court or justice of the peace hav-
ing jurisdiction-to labor upon the pub
lie roads or village and town districts,
under the direction of the county COM
missioners and while in the custody Of
the sherifs of the counties. Such law
would relieve the counties from the ex-
pense involved in conveying convicted
tramps to the house of correction which
is now incurred, while the cost of the
additional force Of deputy sheriffs req
uisite for guarding the convicts when
at work and in the county jails would
be more than covered by the value of
the improved roads and the lessening of
the road tax. Provision may also be
made that those tramps and Migrants
who are sent to the house of correction
from Baltimore city should be turned
over for the time Of their sentence by
the board Of managers to the commits

cations for their labor. Governor

there we heard from various parties who
had cattle near us that bears were very
plentiful and that one old grizzly had run
three or four outfits, all of them having
failed to kill her, although they had shot
her. several times.
