''Uncle Zeb" Bender, of Syncope,

one cannot be stated, for Mr.. Bender
h in that city on a peculiar errand and
be does not want all the relatives who
knew him before ne became cattle
king in the west TO call upon him dur
Ing this visit. He wants to be quiet
md to transact his business without be-
ing bothered
Having known Mr.. Bender in his col
lege days, journal reporter upon
hearing that he was in town went
around and called upon him, but had to
take solemn pledge not to reveal the
Westerner's wherea bouts. After having
twice smached his lips over the rims OF
Two glasses, and leaving two other
glasses flied with water remain where
hey had been placed by the bartender,
the cattleman went down in his pocket
Ind found piece of tobacco about the
size of Milwaukee brick. He bit off a
thew and was ready to talk.
Il dom mind teIlin' you what I'm
here for" he said, ''but dom want tn
newspapers to get onto me. You see
I've had some peculiar experiences since
went out west, but the funniest thing
that's happened to me is the matter
that's brought me right here to Chi
sago. When / went to Idaho there
wasn't much of a population out there,
IN by hard work, an keepin' the cattle

little money. I've never married, but
have lived alone, with the exception of
number of pets that I've kept around
the shanty.
Il took a great deal Of enjoyment
with these companions. l had prairie
Cog, two owls, an eagle and a tame
grouse. besides a monstrous rattlesnake
which / caught out on the prairie when
he was youngster. The snake was a
particular pet. When I'd come home
nights he'd be at the door to meet me,

anything l had, but he got the best Of
me after he had cut his eye-teeth.
He had partner by his side one
night when / got to the bin, and the
partner didn't take to me. jim that 8
what called the RATHER, seemed to be
grieved at the reception l got. He
wanted his friend to be friends with
me, but the stranger sncaked off and
wouldn't have it. Then Jim got his
dander up and tackled him. l never
saw such a snake fight in all my life.
They wriggled and twisted, wound
themselves around each others body,
and tried to strangle each other, but
they didn't seem TO use their fangs.
Those fellows must have fought for at
least twenty minutes before the
stranger got a grip on 'Jim's' head.
Then he squeezed and squeezed until
.Jim's' eyes fairly bulged out L
watched the battle and saw that jim
was getting the worst of it, but before
could get to them, you may not be-

squeezed both of 'Jim's' eyes right out
of his head.
Now, I've learned to like that rat
tier just as if he was u boy of mine,

around disfgured for the rest of his
life. The idea struck me that perhaps

back his wooden shirt and brought to
light the eyeless RATHER sleeping peace
fully about his neck.
