1t now and then waddles athwart

Martin was predicting for prohibition
some fourteen years ago. They nave

that he was lonesome went 10 tram

CUPID AND BILL DOOLlN.

The Eagles old friend, Bill DOolin,
the outlaw, is in a peculiar predica-
ment While Bill was going through
a train, dividing up his wealth with
through passengers and eQualiZing the
circulating medium Of his particular
part Of the country, he was Overtaken
by dark-blue piece Of hard luck. 1t
is necessary to give complete account
of the situation at that exact moment
to properly understand Mr. Doolin'S
trouble. One of Mr.. Doolin's friends
had large, adult weapon pressed pas
sionately against the bosom of the en-
Sineer; another companion had the
fireman locked in the baggage car; an
other still was sitting on the African
regent of the Pullman car Bill him
self was experimenting the conductor
and brakeman, they accompanying
him, directly in front, and in such a
position, that if murdered, they would
fall comfortably at full length in the
aisle.
At that time it was impossible for
Bill Doolin to be harmed, so he
thought. Every point of attack was
covered. He. felt as safe as he would
have in his own deserted cabin in the
dark wilderness of Payne county, Ok
lahoma. AS he passed up the aisle
scratching the seams of the passen-
gers pockets for free gold, he suddenly
looked into the blue Of eyes of Miss
Bailey, a school teacher The black
heart OF the desperate boiled with
some portentious change. The blue
eyes before him showered a spray Of
violet lOve-light upon him, and small
naked youngster, with curly hair and
dimpled chin perched himself on top
of the nearest seat and bent his bow.
At this moment the engineer was still
in close communion with the muzzle of
a revolver; the porter PROSTATE; the
and brakeman harmless, but the IN
clothed youngster stood free and IN
guarded and with twang he let the
arrow fly that sank deep into the heart
of Bill
No more trains have been held up
since then. Bill Doolin had not been
heard from until he was discovered
paying attentions TO Miss Bailey, a
school teacher near Purcell. She was
reforming him, it is said. Discovered
by the deputy marshalS, both have fed.
The affair proves what Doolin's friends
have claimed-that he was a better
man than he showed himself 10 be. 1t
also proves that love is thing that
does not ask pedigree of lineage, a
certificate of morality. or an eXemp-
ton from future trouble.

In his recent works Historian Win
geographical documents the romance

been decided in its most important fea-
lures by the discoveries Of the st. Law

Strangely enough, these two great
water highways of the continent are

having pushed up the St Lawrence in
search Of the Northwestern sea, it fell
TO their lot to discover the Mississippi
and plant New France even in Louis
lana. Had the Spanish only realized
what great interior river was empty
ing that muddy current into the Gulf of
Mexico, they would undoubtedly have
reached the great lakes before the
Jesuits. The romance OF New France
would probably never have occurred,
and American history would have been
decidedly different.

WHERE ARE WE AT?

The questions of tariff and of labor
are very closely allied as everybody
admits, but the question of money is
just as ultimately allied 10 that of
labor. Upon the tariff question the
various aSpirants to the presidency
show no hesitancy in defining their po-
sitions. Touching the money question
no candidate knows where he stands,
or knowing dares not affirm The
reason for this apparently antithetical
problem will be found in the fact that
these candidates have not been able to
conclude as to the conclusion Of Others
On the tariff the line is drawn; on the
money question, the great majority
are for more money, but the pressure
is such that majOrities hesitate to de-
clare their convictions, not out of fear
of the peower of the controllers of gold,
but from fear that, possibly, all the
calamities prophecied by those who
ought to know may really come to pass
should silver be remonetiZed, and their
last predicament become worse than
the first.
So the American people have their
studying caps on.
In the meantime Harrison left his
home again for the east last saturday,
and Alser is also in New York. Ali
son and Mckinley and Reed are each
intently feeling the pulse Of their re-
spective states, but keeping an eye on
the east. Depew and Armour, both
recognized as great factors but not as
personal aSpirants, have both sailed
for Europe. Morton is an outspoken
goldbug, and Sherman is no more
thought Of, being acceptable only to
Wall street.
In short the leaders are waiting to be
led-it is a campaign Of fear and cow
ardice.

SMOKING AND APPLAUSE IN CHURCH

The question Of church etiquette and
It's influence on the sanctity of church
editices is brought TO mind by the ac-
count of curious experiment in Lon
don last Sunday. A free smoke prayer
| meeting was given in Christ church
chapel in the East End. Two hundred
of the poorest of the poor attended.
Some OF the men took their tobacco
along. Most of them came with empty
pipes. These were filled by the men
who were managing the meeting.
While the choir sang, and the preacher
prayed, nearly all men. went ahead
putting their pipes and enjoying it
hugely. The chapel was filled with
smoke. 4 hymn was attempted bur
was not very successful. as the men
could not smoke and sing at the same
time, ana they did not care TO quit
smoking. Later 4 little woman cot
up and sang hymn with much sweet
ness. They Were an orderly set and
did not venture to applaud until grant
ed permission TO do so.

THE coAL-aEAvER A MUSICIAN.

Cy Warman. the author OF a rather
ancient but still popular song, Sweet
Marie" surprised some friends the
| other day by declaring that he was AT
one time fireman on Rocky noun
tain railroad, in fact that he served
many years at that occupation.
Sweet Marie" is still a little love
song. 1t is very pretty and very SIM
pie. 1t can be whistled easily and has
a sentiment in it, Consequently it be-
came very popular. The funny men"
On the newspapers who attack every
thing and everybody, have made fun
of the song from the time it was sal
able enough to be worthy of note.
The public did not know that its
author had been a railroad stOker.
Now that the public does know it, it
will be glad Of it.
The metropolitan papers and the
syllabub magazines have a great deal
TO say about one gentleman who has
the Saint Vitus' dance in his name
Mr.. Dvorak. Mr.. DyOrak has been
delegated by the common consent of
these big newspapers and wish-washy
magazines to find this country new
national song. Mr.. DyOrak has been
rummaging around on the scale for
something that will fit us. He hasn't
found it. He never will.
The 'Star Spangled Banner" is good
enough anyway. However, if it be-
comes absolutely necessary for the life
Of the Republic that we have a new
national song, the author Of some
Sweet Marie or Annie Rooney" will
compose ii.
This is government Of the people,
and it is but natural to suppose that
our music will come from the people.
The Dvoraks and Paderewskis and
ScharwenkaS and Rezskes are not Of
this country. People in the cities go
to hear them because it is fad, just
as it was the fad at one time to pay
$500 for 4 tulip. These alphabetical
spasms sip their musical inspirati tons
from abSinthe and summer vacations,
and cigarettes. They cannot find the
music Of this people. But the man
who hangs out the cab of an engine
and draws his inspiration from the
ring Of the steel rails, and the rhythmic
hiss of the exhaust, and an old pipe
apoplectic with nicotine, and the
dreams of blue-eyed girl at the end
of his run, can write national song
and some day will.
