UNDER THE SNOW.


Under the snow lies u secret. my dear
Under the snow,
And it whispers the coming Of roses fir
And the golden bell of the icssImiIe vim.
This secret under tho SNOW.
Under the SNOW sleeps n song, my love.
Under the snow,
And. its notes unawGkC to buttSrcup5 tIiI
Or the violets' call in soft summer AFR,
This song sleeps under the snow.
Under the snow lisps Il prayer, my sweet,
Under the snow,
And it mclts IN II hope on the crccus leaf
And promises life in the hyGCinth wreath,
This prayer down under the snow.

A TRUE FISH STORY.
Don't Read 1t If You hre Not Prepared
to Believe 1t.

to Believe 1t.
We give every one fair warning that
this is q fish story More than that, it
is u story Of a fish with legs. Now, all
who are not prepared to believe may
stop right here, fcr this il Il true story,
and to doubt it would be to Gucstion the
veracity Of orc of Lllsworth's best citi-
zens, a man held high in the esteem of
his fellows, and whose word is good.
This is the story as he told it to the re-
porter:
Some years ago he was employed in
numbering on the west branch Of the
Penobscot. His camp was at North
Twin lake. In ann with him was q
man who declared he had caught trout
with legs. Of course he was laughed at,
but bidcd his time 70 rroNp his story.
One Sunday he proposed TO the Els
worth man a fishing trip. 1t was II ten
mile tramp across country to the pond
he wished to visit, but that was consid-
cred but Il shcrt launt to these woods
men experienced in the use of snowshocs.
The trip was made, aud in the course
of "a few hours fishing n dozen or more
trout were caught. As the Ellsworth
man STOPPED to pick up his fish he no.
ticed something peculiar about one of
them that was breathing his last. In
unison with the opening and the closing
of the gills something having the APP
pearanCe of legs was stretched ont from
the fish's body. He called to his compan-
ion to see what manner Of fish he had
caught, but that individual calmly re-
marked "Oh. that's one of those trout
with legs l was telling you about.
They're all that way in this pond"
Examination proved this to be the
fact. Each fish was supplied with six
legs-thrcc ON each sidc-which folded
SO closely to the body as to be hardly
noticeable except on close inspection.
But they were legs sure enough. The
pond where these remarkable fish were
caught is situated on Saddlcback moun
tain. 1t is II small pond. covering only
about go acres, ard has neither inlet
nor outlet. 1t is said that there is a
similar pond on Mount Katahdin where
the six legged trout are caught. The
fish caught by tho Ellsworth man were
exhibited Mt Bangor. He will not say
that the trout may still be caught. Pos
sibly they have taken to the land and
walked off .-Ellsworth (Nie.) Amori-
can.

A representative in the Fifty-Fifth
congress OF the United States.
A Justice Of the Wyoming supreme
court.
The delegates to this convention
from the counties in the several ju-
dicial districts in the state will also at
the same time and place separately
place in nomination a candidate for
district judge in each of their respec-
tive districts.
The convention will also transact
such other business as may properly
come before it, including the selection

Couldn't Congratulate Her.

NJ. Paul Deronlede, the French poet
and dramatist, was captain Of Il company
i'll the service of the Versailles govern
ment of national defense i'll 1871. AT
one time he had to lead his company
against street barricade in Paris
raised by communists.
Some signs of resistance had been OBJ
served behind. As Deroulede marched
his men onward, woman sprang to the
top Of the barricade, aimed ChasSepot
rifle at the leader and fired.
The soldiers duCked their heads, but
no one was hit. They marched on, De-
roulede III advance. He smiled, eying
calmly the woman, who leveled heI
gun at him and fired again. Once more
no one was hit. On went the soldiers
steadily, their captain smiling, the
woman on the barricade continuing to
charge her piece and to fire each time
as nearly as she could at Deroufede.
Presently, however, the soldiers were
on the barricade. The woman threw
away her gun and stood with folded
arms She was one of the petroleuses-
tne furious HSntlnB NOlheu VI tne GULF
mune. Deroulede looked behind the
barricade to see who else was defending
it. No one was there; the woman was
alone.
Then he took off his cap, bowed low
to the woman, and said very politely,
Madam, l regret exceedingly that
am unable TO congratulate you, but real
ly, i'll view of your workmanship, l can
not. Youth Companion.

Some Eugene Field Humor.

1t was only year or two ago when
Field played his last joke on George
CASTOR, the big hearted Italian, who is
still i'll Kansas City and will sit and
read Fields poems for hours. Every
year he seemed 10 think more Of the
singer hunurist. When Field Went ts
San Francisco, he wrote CASTOR letter,
briefly telling him Of the fact, It's well
as the time and train which would find
him i'll Kansas City. Field weuld he
stopped over half an hour ut thiss point.
But the worth Of the letter lay iii its
pictures. On one sheet the hnlnOriSt
drew il very bad picture CT himself go
ing to the train i'll Chicago. Over on
another sheet train was drawing rap
idly toward station named Kansas
City; while in the foreground was il
very excellent likeness of Castor him
self, trudging statiCnward with two
baskets, one On each arm, and both
heavily freighted with bottles and cigar
boxes. CASTOR took the hint, and tho
bottles and the cigar boxes ana he were
all there on time So WAS Field. To-day
CASTOR regards this letter as one Of his
proudest possessions Washington Post.

Mrs. Fremont's Home.

Among all the fine homes and beautiful
grounds in west Los Angeles, n very few
Of them old PLACES belonging 70 pioneer
settlers on the coast and now III posses
sion of their children, the one that inter.
ested mo most in passing is the pretty
home of Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont, So
cured to the brave generals widsw chiefly
by the women of California. 1t stands
just outside the city limits in one of the
most beautiful streets of the place and is
set down in the very center of what was
an orange orchard, trees enough being cut
out to make place for it. Driving ''intC
town" along Main street. which is the
only street entirely through the city, and
on to the ocean on the west and toward the
sierra on the east, one passes an old adobe
house where General Fremont lived for i
time in the early days.
1t is said to have been very picturesque
and whole rows of enthusiastic sketchcrS
might for time be seen seated on camp
