Any one who reads Mr..
Ashford's sayings to San Fran
cisco reporters must read be-
tween the lines to understand
that he does not mean half
that he is reported as saying.
Mr.. Ashford was long enough
in Hawaii to convince the peo-
pie that he can tell the differ
ence between Ga 'awk han a
'au saw" and that he under
stands full well the value of
silence. He has about as
much intention of heading a
filibustering expedition as he
has of returning here and
standing as a candidate for
office. c. w. is a little joker
and the interview with the re-
porter in Frisco was one of his
Jokes. When Mr.. Ashford
left here, his main thought
was to do something in the
behalf of his brother. The
people here who know him
will not believe that a flibus-
tering expedition is in the line
of assistance to that person.
Some time ago, we pur-
chased lot of European wire
and Immediately afterward
some parties circulated a re-
port that the quality had been
affected by some unknown
cause and that it was not up
to the standard of the Ant-
ericam product. We had a half
dozen coils of the wire tested
at the Iron Works and it
showed a tensile strength of
1850 pounds. When this re-
port was published in this
column, the wire was sought
after by plantation managers
and individuals from Niihau to
Hawaii. The other day, to OBJ
lige a skeptic, we ordered a
hundred coils of American
wire from the Coast and as
it reached the store, we sent
half dozen coils to the foun-
dry to have it tested. The
result showed a tensile
strength of 768 pounds or
about 1000 less than the Eu-
ropean article. We violate no
confidence when we tell you
that this American wire will
not be sold by us. We have
an abundance of the European
and can supply all sizes
and in any quantity. This wire
with the steel stays and gal
washers comprise the
material necessary to use in
making the celebrated Jones
Locked Fence than which no
stronger, cheaper or better
fence was ever made.

After returning to America Miss jarvis

with exquisite effect. She was next the
soubrcttc of Lincoln j. Carriers "Torna-

this role and remained with tho company
until the close of tho past season.
AT recent production in Chicago of a
dramatization of Rudyard Kipling's story,
"Thc Light That Failcd,' Miss Jarvis
created the role of Bcss, and by her excel

Tho first shot he made he hit IL man

Tender and Offensive Feet.

Many people suffer from tender feet and
many Others from offensive feet. Both Of
these ailments can be effectively and
quickly cured If properly treated. Battle
the feet two or three times week in n
weak solution of Quratol, or it will be
better to bathe them every night for o
week or ten days. Use one tablespoonful
of Quratol to ono pint of cool water and
battle the affected parts freely. If the dis
ease returns repeat the treatment and In q
very short while permanent cure will be
effected.
Quratol Is decidedly the best antiseptic
on the market; it is also death to inflam-
nation. 1t is the most speedy rcstorer of
putreilcd ilesh, and will be found invaiu-
able as family remedy. Druggists sell
it-50 cents.
Mr.. II. 5. Hudgins, with the Noting
ham Il Wreen CO., of Norfolk, Va, says
he has been using Quratol for chapped
hands and lips and soreness about the
body. In every case IN immediate cure
was the result. Mr.. Hudgins recommends

Ed Geers tho Silent Man.

Ed Gccrs, who drives Robert j, is a
unique character, says Outing for June.
He is known rs tho silent man from Ten
ncSscc. He is II man who bears an enviable
record for honesty, ability and abstemious-
ness, and his only vice is an exceedingly
mild one, that of chewing gum. Strange
to say although he has magnificent sta
Bile at his disposal, his favorite amusement,
when not attending to his horses, Is to
ride on bicyclc-in fact, he uses this
mode of locomotion to keep down his
weight, and u favorite joke on him is
that, when he is sweeping along country
road in the neighborhood of Buffalo and
finds himself ovcrtakcn by one of the crack
riders of that city, he softly clucks to him
self ms If he were addressing one of his ia
voritc stccds and then unconsciously puts
on an extra squirt and probably beats the
crack who has just passed him. Gccrs re-

TURNER AND HIS GUN
DOUBLED Eek, THE COWBOY, AND
HIS MODEST RECORD CLAIM.

How Ho Showed His Dislike For "a Horse
Spirit Was Conquered by n Mild Man.
nered Soldier With a Winchester.
Now and then bad man" tries to
cultivate something which he mistakes
for humor. One of these devotces of lev
lty used to haunt the cattle range Of
western Kansas, and every fall and
spring he appeared in Dodge City ut the
general roundup Every time he
came to town he left some proof of a
facetious mind, and was very sure of be-
ing talked about by every idle man and
most of the busy ones who remained
when the rush was over.
His name was Eek Turner, though
Dodge City will best remember him by
the title Doubled Eek, ;" the duplicated
capital being Leonard 81 Loughrain's
brand, and he being one of their best
riders In fact, Turner might have been
foreman if he had cared for the position,
for he could ride we'll, and there were
few more expert with the rope and prob
ably none who could bear fatigue and
hardship more patiently than he
But the trouble WAS he wanted recon-
pense for the dull life of Il cowboy. He
didn't care for money Any wages going
were acceptable to him. But when the
cattle got rounded up and there was half
a days escape from the tedium of labor
Eek Turner wanted his fling. And he al
ways went into town and had it.
Now, foreman cannot do these
things. He must stay by the herd all the
time, preserve clear head aud firm
place i'll the saddle He is the represent
ative of the owner-the custodian of
much wealth-and dissipation is not to
be Thought of.
One of Eek Turner'S pet bits of hu-
NOR was to pick out people whose APP
pearance displcased him and shoot just
near enough to them to express his sen
timents. Ho particularly dislikcd to see
horsemen 90 by on the trot. 1t was in a
cowboy country, and cowboys galloped,
whether or not they We're in hurry
And if the rider had Il habit of iris
ing" i'll the stirrups, as conventional
trotters often do, Eek Turner hated him
violently. So that when he came down
Main street ono day and saw il rather
we'll dressed man 90 by trotting and
''rising'' with the motion of his horse
Eek called general attention to the spec
tacle
Really the trotter was not very good
horseman 1t was possible. as Eek OBJ
served, to 'sce daylight under him" ev-
cry time he rose III the saddle. And the
glimpscs of that recurring daylight -
provoked Eek to "a bit of pistol practice
II bet, said he, watching the rider
and reaching fer Il large revolver, pretty
we'll back on his belt, Il bet L can shoot
between him and the saddle and never
touch feather.
He had been drinking in so decorous
manner as to be dangerous. and so no
one intcrfcred. The rider was half Il
block away when Eek fired, and the
bullet must have gone true. for the rider
