Tho Earl and HI. Te... Fr,end,.

The Earl Of Aylesford was espe-
cially well known in west Texas.
He owned ranch near Big Springs
and lived in the town. This was In
the days when steers were worth $40
a head, range count, and everybody
had money. But even the broad
familiarity of the west halted at
Joey. They would not call him by
his title, SO they called him "the
boss" Every cowboy in that whole
country knew him by that name,
and all asserted that he was a prince
Of good fellows.
The earl was democratic in his as
sociations and preferred the pnn-
censed frontier English of the plains
to the conventional phrases Of the
clubs. He bought a hotel out there
and a saloon. Whenever a cowboy
loomed up there in a state Of finan-
cial desuetude he was sure to find
friend who would provide him with
a first class room, plenty to eat and
all the Kicker" he wanted. AS that
was the general condition Of cow
boys then and now, the earl's hotel
and the earl's barroom were costly
luxuries. He did a big business,
and nearly every other saloon in Big
Springs was forced to close, but he
did not make any money. He did
not want to make any. He much
preferred spending it and buying
whisky and victuals for cowboys,
which was perhaps better way of
turning money loose than buying
brandy and sodas for the pegged out
aristocracy Of London. And when
he died on his ranch all the cowboys
mou1ned his loss, and the grief was
sincere. Dallas Sun.

A Tale Of oresu ga oonadeuee.

A Tale Of Cream and Confidence.
An account Of the troubles Of q New
Yorker who was once a millionaire re-
calls a story that was told about him
two years ago, when he was, after q
very harassing legal experience, sent to
a hospital to be treated for nervous
prostration. He is a man Of very agree-
able personality, and he rarely fails to
become friendly with anybody with
whom he may he thrown in contact.
The doctors Of the hospital grew to like
him, and he was popular with every
body he met there. It was when the
time came for him to leave that he ex-
pressed a desire to show his apprecia-
tion Of the kindness that he had enjoy
ed, and as he wanted TO do something
which the patients as we'll as the doc
tors and nurses might enjoy it was a
little difficult to decide just what form
the demonstration should take. It was
finally concluded that the plan suggest
ed first by the convalescing patient was
about the most feasible, and permission
was given to buy ice cream enough for
everybody in the place, including pa.
tients who were we'll enough to eat it.

MASTER MEADER THE STAR
At the PeapIe's Church, Though Not
SO Billed.

1t was an unconventional sort of
entertainment that a small audience
witnessed at the Peoples church last
night. A little boy with a rich mezzo
soprano voice sang with rare express
sion, the Ladies' Violin and Mandolin
orchestra under the direction of Miss
Hope, contributed some pleasing num-
bers, Miss Alcott sang two soprano
solos, and a gentleman whom the pro-
gramme designated as Saldini, recited
selections from LongfelloW, Scott and
Mrs Felicia HemanS.
The feature of the evening was the
singing of the boy, Master George F.
Meader of Minneapolis. He has a rich
organ, this little fellow, of phenomenal
volume, considering it's source. A blind
auditor would scarcely believe that
such voice could come from the
vocal organs of other than an adult
songstress. Master Meader sang with
an expression far beyond his years.
The Ladies orchestra played num-
Der of selections suited to the violin
and mandolin such as Herman's En-
chantment," Tocome's Spanish Waltz
es" and other spirited compositions.
Saldinis portion of the programme
was punctuated with clippings from
the New York papers, eXtolling the
recitations selected and the reader of
them, though none of these clippings
mentioned the name "Saldini" be it
said in justice to the metropolitan
dailies Mr.. Saldini is seriously handi-
capped by the lack of a pleasing voice,
for his is neither resonant nor flexible.
1t is perhaps unnecessary to point out
Sicily" Bernardo Del Carpio," 1.-THE
Coward" and 'The Widow and Her
Only Child were among the literary
selections recited.

INDIAN TROUBLE EXAGGERATED.
Idaho Settlers Alarmed without
Adequate Reason.

+; WASHINGTON, July 1.-The Ban
mock Indian trouble in Idaho appears
to have been greatly exaggerated by
the settlers. Dispatches received to-
day indicate that the number of In
dians off the reservation is much less
than was stated; that there was little
basis for general alarm through that
country, and that the object of the In
dians who did leave the reservation
was solely to secure food luxury m the
form of camassa roots, a blue-f1owered
bulb, whose sweet taste is much lovet-
ed by the Indians. Lieut. Irwin, the
agent at the Fort Hall reservation,
wired today that the situation was not
as serious as reported. Agent Harper,
Of the Umatilla reservation at Pendle-
ton, Ore, whose Indian charges were
said to have joined the Fort Hall In
dians, telegraphed today that his In
dians are all at home SO far as he
knows. with four exceptions, and are
preparing to celebrate the Fourth of
July. He discredits the idea Of his
Indians being at CANVASS Prairie, and
apparently has no fear of any diff

STREET CAR COMBINATION.
All of Cook County Turned Over to
Mr.. Yerkes.

CHICAGO. July 1.-An ordinance
empowering the Metropolitan Trac-
ton company to build more than
200 miles of street railway in Cook
county, has been passed by the county
board The roads over which the fran
chise extends cover every point in
Cook county outside of the city of Chi
cago, where it is likely to become d.
sirable to build a street railway line.
1t is said that way has thus been
paved for a gigantic combination Of
the street railways of Chicago, with
every suburban line now in existence
and others to be built by the new COM
pany. One project to be carried into
effect by the company will be the car
rying of freight from every town and
village in the county to the limits of
the city after 6 p. M, where it will he

preference to go before the people with
a platform of one plank only This
is practically what happened since the
only other two resolutions considered,
that against trusts and that express
ing sympathy with Cuba, are mere
sidelights and do not count. TO all
intents and purposes, the regular DEM
ocratic organization in Ohio abandons
every other tenet of Democracy end
asks the people of the state to elect
free silver. In Ohio, however. the sill
yer Republicans and the Populists
found their pictures turned to the wall.
No places on the ticket were assigned
to them, and each party has appointed
a committee to call state convention
to nominate candidates of it's own.
How far Mr.. McLean's influence, 70
litically and financially, can extend to
prevent this remains to be seen.
So we will have three political demon
strations this fall of the strength Of
the free silver principle before the peo-
pie. In Ohio it is made the sole test
of Democracy, and Democrats and none
others are invited to vote for it, In
Iowa Democracy has been abandoned
and the free silverites of all parties are
invited to coaleSce on a composite
ticket In Kentucky it is to be the
dividing line between Democrats, and
their numerical strength, as measured
by their support or opposition, is to be
determined. Nothing could be more
important upon the future of the party
councils than the results of these three
elections.
In the other states Democrats will
rest upon their oars and wait the out
come of these events. If the free silver
proposition should come out victor in
all these states, the policy of the pa
ttonal organization would be consid-
cred as settled. If, with all the advan-
tage on its side of an off year, of the
year following the presidential elec-
ton, in which the vote is uniformly
against the administration, and Of the
splendid campaign material furnished
by Republican incompetence and indif-
ference to promises and duty alike, the
Democratic party should be defeated
in all these states, it will require no
prophet to predict the effect upon future
platforms and councils. AS far as
Democracy is concerned, the returns of
the election of 1897 will be even more
significant and important than those
of 1896.

LOCKED UP FAsCH1NGBAUER.
He Is Charged With the Bass Lake
Shooting.

Matthias Faschingbauer, a painter
living at 1863 Sherburne avenue. was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff George AL
len yesterday noon, on the charge of
assault in the second degree The
complainant in the case is Henry E.
D&nz, living at 1885 Thomas street, who
alleges that Faschingbauer attempted
to kill him with a Winchester rifle at
Bass lake Wednesday night. Four
shots were fired, according to Mr..
DanZ, one Of which passed within a
hairs breadth of his head
The story Of Mr.. Danz regarding the
shooting is that he, in company with
his brother-in-law, Harry Little, Of 1890
THOMAS street, and Joseph Suppan, Iiv-
ing at 1217 Thomas street, went out to
Bass lake late Wednesday afternoon to
go in bathing. They took a lunch with
them, and Mr.. Suppan, at whose inVi-
tatlon Mr.. DanZ says he went to the
lake, also took an eighth of a barrel Of
beer Rudolph Stephany, a boy sixteen
years old, rowed the party across the
lake, and they entered the water. When
they came out, Mr.. Danz says, the
refreshments were gone, while Fasch-
ine'bauer stood near the empty keg. Mr.
Danz commented upon the disappear
aHce of the lunch and a quarrel be-
tween his party and Faschingbauer fol-
lowed. The difficulty was adjusted
Mr.. Danz says, by Faschingbauer pay
ing Mr.. Little 81. The quarrel was re-
neWed, shortly, however, and Mr.. Danz
says Faschingbauer drew a revolver
and pressing it against Littles breast
threatened to kill him. Danz Jumped
on Faschingbauer, he says, and took
away the revolver. Then Mr.. Little he
says, wanted to shoot Faschingbauer
while the boy, Stephany, attempted to
strike him in the head with an AK

lowed Faschingbauer to gain his feet
Then he says the man ran into a
house within a few feet of where the
fight had taken place. and returned
with a Winchester rifle. While within
forty feet Of him, Mr.. Danz says,
FaSchingbauer took deliberate aim at
him and pulled the trigger. He felt
the bullet whiZz by his head, Mr.. Danz
asserts, and fell to the ground to pre-
vent the man shooting again. He
crawled a short distance through this
grass, and jumping up ran toward
large tree. While he was seeking
place of safety, Mr.. Danz says, Fasch-
ingbauer fired three more shots at him.
Each time the weapon was carefully
aimed, and Mr. DanZ declares Fasch-
ingbauer was only prevented from kill
ing him by reason of the uncertain
mark which he made in his flight.
Mr.. DanZ yesterday made complaint
against Faschingbauer, and a warrant
was placed in the hands of the sheriff.
Before Deputy Allen left the office
Faschingbauer was intercepted walk
ing through the court house and taken
to the county Jail. He will be arraigned
in the police court today. 1t is said
by Deputy Sheriff Robert, who claims
to recognize Faschingbauer, that the
prisoner was at one time committed to
the insane asylum at Rochester.
