Sage. chief OF the Iowa weather aud
crop service, read q paper before
the late meeting OF the Iowa State
Horticultural Society, in which,
after showing the faliacy OF the prev

rainfall, stated that the converse OF
this idea vas undoubtedly true.
North America, he said, is the best
wat2rad OF all the grand divisions OF
the globe, and this was TIE cause o.
the immense forests with which the
pioneers in settlement ionnd much

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1897-04-05

Such good fortune, however, rarely
| happens; it is the pFovidential care of
| fools. Only roo often does the true
hunter, the man of nerve-.who de-
serves success-meet with the fate OF
the young Englishman, who, though
scion of nobility, showed his Anglo
Saxon ancestry in his love of adventure.
His quest for big game had led him into
n rough country which white men had
never before penetrated. Accompanied
by n friend, also an Englisbman, he was
riding merrily along, when he was sur
| rrised to see very giant of rhinoceros
right ahead of him. Here was big game
and no mistake.
by Hcaven!" he called out to his
friend, that fellow has a big horn! ]
must get him, sure!" and Immediately
fired at the brute. He might just as
well have fired at stone wall, for the
ball had no effect on the rhinoceros
whatever other than to startle it. On
the second shot the rhinoceros con-
cluded it was time for disappearing, and
forthwith plunged into dense tangle
oil underground. In vain did the men
urge their horses through the tall brush
in search of the giant beast, but no.
where was he to be seen. They secured
the country round about in all direc-
tons, but to no purpose-the monster
had evidently vacated the neighbor-
hood. Finally the young nobleman.
having lost all hope of ever seeing the
animal again, gave up the chase, and
was quietly sitting in the sadie wait
ing for his friend to come up, when
crash through the bushe: came the big
rhiroceros at terrific speed. Instantly
the hunter saw his peril; quickly he
spurred his horse to flight, but too late,
for ere the faithful animal could fairly
start, the rhinoceros had disemboweled
him. The force of the charge was so
great as to cause the horse TO make a
complete somersault. The rider was
violently thrown to the ground, and be-
fore the dazed man could even attempt
to rise, the beast had gored him to
death.
An this happened so unexpectedly
that the second rider, for the moment,
could not realize what was taking place;
and when at last he did come to his
senses, it was only to see the mangled
remains of his friend, over which stood
the rhinoceros in savage guard. No
bullet ever sped its vergeful way more
surely than the one now aimed at the
fendish murderer, and none with more
fatal effect. AS the sharp crack of the
rifle split the sultry air, the great brute
fell dead, right in his tracks and par

do not look so formidable in themselves

And bellboys tell him he must stop it all
oh. what life this life Of his must be!
He goes to shows. But no tramp dog is his
To play with him in shed or field or wood
He looks from windows-sees the whito
steam fizz:
A forestry of blackened smokestacks is
The sum and substance of his ''neis hbor-
hood
His wealthy father buys him pretty clothes,
His mother garbs him out all tris and
trim;
But, in all glory decked, do you suppose
That hungry-hearted little magnate knows
One-half the blessings thataccrue to him
He looks sometimes from out his window
Across the intervening roof and sees
The watchman's child, who shouts greet
ing cry
To some young neiGhbor of loft near by
He wishes well he might be one of these
With uncombed hair and patches at his
knees.
The hotel child. unloved but by his own,
Has plays and toys. The watchman's
boy has none.
But of all dreams the rich mans heir has
known
The fondest is to be the watchman's son.

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1897-04-05

The good people of Michigan. says the
Detroit journal, have given the life
imprisonment penalty for intentional
murder a fair test. 1t has failed to
prove its efficacy as deterrent, and is
wofully impotent to protect society. A
bill will be presented to the Legislature
again this session providing for the
restoration Of capital punishment. 1t
will be antagonized by the opponents of
retributive justice. and we shall hear re-
peated the sentimental arguments
which have hitherto defeated the pass
nge of like measures.
