Told NV m old settler.

1T is the proper thing. as matter OF
course, to talk Of things which happened
in the early days Of a country as having
more fun and excitement in them than the
prosaic days Of these times said an old
settler in a reminiscent mood. which mood
ia an old settler is an indication Of happy
frame Of mind, says the Chicago Times
Herald. But, in reality, some funny
thing did happen then. The story l have
in mind occurred away back-and when
Il was the custom for adventurous anu
enterprising men 10 establish ranches
where wanderers over the face or the
earth who came that way might find some
thing TO eat. There was one Of these places
down in southern county, merely hut
filled with provisions, and guarded by two
men and a couple OF dozen guns.
'One day they we're surprised 10 see
man drive up with a wagon well loaded
with provisions, who informed them that
he was going to start a ranch in the valley
just below them. They did not express
themselves one way or the other. and he
drove down a little and camped for the
night under a bluff opposite them. Some
time after he came up and found the boys
had all their guns out cleaning them
There was quite an array as they lay in a
row upon the ground.
" Going hunting, bOys2'
mo. the boys were not going hunting.
Then what are you cleaning up your guns
for% The boys thought that they might
want to use them-that was all
THE newcomer went back to his wagon
and the boys, setting up a tin can on the
edge of the bluff, began shooting a II as
a mark. And they made their bullets 90
nearer the strangers wagon than they did
the can.
This proceeding evidently gave the
wOuld-be ranchman the idea that his
company was not wanted, and in the
morning he came up to parley.
i don't want to have any trouble with
you boys he said. Just show me how
I will rlfr
II before ] build He was informed that
their land extended exactly as far as
their rifles could shoot This was an UNI
comfortable answer, and the man did nOt
understand exactly the best way to pro-
coed, but, being a plucky fellow, he told
them that he would drive to a certain hill
about mile away and there unload.
Very WELL the others said. He could do
so. They would wait until he reached the
hill and then begin to shoot, and il moth
ing hit him he might consider that he was
! off their land
This was not encouraging but he
started out, and when he reached that
! hill they began to shoot. And the bullets
hit so close around that he did not take
| time to unload. He merely unhitched one
horse, and, without taking the harness
| off, started back waving a handkerchief
/ The boys considered this as a truce to
| stop firing until they had heard what ne
/ had to say and let him come up. Then

sn.cnln,inr on the Re.uIt.

Very few OF the speculations which are
appearing in the newspapers as to which
states viii be carried by Mr.. Mckinley and
which by Mr. Bryan are worth anything.
The Philadelphia Times. for instance. In
its last Sundays edition. has an editorial,
a column and a half long. in which 1t
makes il appear that Mr.. Mckinley will
be elected without a doubt The Times
has heretofore supported the democratic
ticket, but 81 is against the Chicago plat
form and ticket AR. Mcclure. its edi-
tor. has the reputation Of being a very able
politician. but If the article in question
Is his. he has lost the keen political vision
he once possessed.
FOR instance. the Times says that Mr.
Mckinley is absolutely certain Of carrying
Connecticut. Delaware. Maine. Maryland.
Massachusetts. New Hampshire New Jer-
sey. New York Pennsylvania. Rhode IS
land and Vermont. These states have l2S
electoral votes.
Mr.. Bryan, the Times declares, is certain
Of carrying Off the following states: Ar
kansas. Colorado. Mississippi. Nevada,
South Carolina, Texas and Utah. These
states have 81 electoral votes.
The Times thinks the chances are ten TO
one that Mckinley will carry the follow
ing states: Illinois. Michigan, Minnesota,
Ohio and Wisconsin, having a total Of 50
electoral votes.
-N,r N.aN
Mckinley will carry the following states
are apparently five to one. viz: California.
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, oregon,
South Dakota and Washington. They
have 81 electoral votes
The most amusing Of all Of the Times
speculations. however. is the statement
that the remaining states are fairly de-
batable. and that Mr.. Mckinley has as
good chance to carry them as Mr.. Bry-
an. These states are Alabama, Florida.
Georgia, Idaho. Kentucky. louisiana, Mis-
ouri. Montana, North Carolina, North Da-
kota, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia
and Wyoming. They have ll9 electoral
votes.
What is a forecast worth that puts Geor-
gia in the list Of doubtful states? Mr.. Nc
Kinley has no more chance Of carrying
Georgia than he has Of carrying Colorado
or Nevada, or Arkansas. We could easily
name other states which Bryan is almost
certain to carry. but which the
Times says the chances are that
Mr.. Mckinley will carry or that
they are fairly debatable Clearly the
Times doesn't keep well informed. We
have never heard a Mckinley man even
suggest that Georgia is debatable state.
What makes the Times think Georgia is
debatable state? It would be interest
ing to know it's reasons.

A wicked white ParosoI.

1t was in the early Sunday evening that
a young man walked down a residence
street of the west side, with a white para
sol in his hand. The parasol was a dainty
silk affair, with fringe three or four inches
long, and the man wore a sack coat and
derby hat, says the New York Press
Where he had come into possession of the
white parasol was his own secret, and
he carried il with a swagger that seemed
TO say he meant to keep his own coun-
sci. But he could not control the tongues
OF the gazers, and many were the re-
marks made as he carried the parasol over
his shoulder and hurled defiant glances
at the girls who thronged the brown
stone steps.
K Il suppose he has bought it for a pres
ent to his steady" giggled a girl with a
sailor hat and red hair
Say, did yer swipe 1t from yer goil?'
asked a rude boy, the son of a janltorl
girl on a wheel relaxed her bicycle
face as she asked: "Will you lend me
The young man carried the white para
sol upside down, over his shoulder, as
a walking cane and with a careless swing.
But the parasol would not abate one jet
or little OF its aggressiVcness. 1t was des-
perateiy white, and the fringe seemed TO
the young man to be growing a foot or
two as he saw the giggling girls and grin
ming boys increasing their interest in it.
There was a perfect storm of remarks
as he reached the corner of the street.
Then, as he disappeared with the white
parasol in a rebeH.ous condition blown
self, low down in his chest. 1t was only
one word, and it began with a big, big
ID"
The truth was that the young man had
had quarrel with his girl, and had walk
ed off with her parasol in the heat Of de-
