"A Dogs Life."z

"She leads that man regular dogs
life and no mistake" This was the
verdict, audibly expressed and audibly
approved, as an iil-assorted couple left
the street car in company. She was an
exaggerated specimen of the new wom-
an; he an example of the old man
meek, modest, evidently under mex
orable discipline. They were quite
alone, and while he faithfully, as be-
came a loyal seryitor, attended to the
convenienees of his queenly companion,
his services received no other reeogni-
tion than an occasional impatient COM
mand, expressed or implied. A few
days after the same couple boarded the
car at the same point and left it as
before. This time the woman had an
object for her affectionate regard and
her solieitous concern. 1t was a pet
dog, jacketed, beribboned, petted and
even publicly kissed while fondly gath

fectionate mistress. But the husband

North Montana stockmen for the
past week have been engaged in gath
ering up their cows and calves for
winter care. Last winter, it might
be said, was the first one in which this
was done to any great extent, and it
proved to be most successful. Apart
from protecting themselves from losses
caused by hard winter on the range,
it has demonstrated that such care
gives the COW and calf longer lives of
usefulness and greater ultimate profit
to the owner.

innate friend, that they were just like
brothers and that Sherman would never
forgive him If he found out that party
OF such distinguished Republicans
stayed over night in Washington with
out calling to pay their respects So
they yielded and started for the Sher-
man mansion in Franklin square.
While they were walking along, Cal
kins entertained his friends with stories
of his brotherly intimacy with Mr..
Sherman, and their affection for one
another, and the active part he was
taking in Mr.. Sherman's canvass. AS
they entered the house the senator
greeted them cordially, but told them
that he was just going out with his
wife. Calkins said they would not
stop. But the host urged them to come
in and wait until Mrs. Sherman was
ready. When that good lady came
downstairs with her bonnet on Mr..
Sherman paralyZed the entire party by
introducing Calkins as Col. Canady, of
North Carolina, who was then SER
geant- at arms of the senate, and asked
him to present his friends. Calkins
gasped their names, and then led them
out. After he got into the fresh air he
recovered little and attempted to ex-
plain that Senator Sherman was a
great hand for practical jokes, but the
folks from Indiana realized how badly
he was wounded and did not tease him.

ed in Withdrawing to the shelter of the
followed to Matanzas, closing the COM
munlcations Of the place, and began
the siege of the city.
Meanwhile the Spanish squadron,
having repaired it's damages, sailed
from Havana, and taking advantage of
the inaction Of the enemy who dared
not quit the Bay of Mantanzas be-
cause of symptoms of insubordination
aboard some of the ships, appeared be-
fore Key West, and after a fierce bonn
bardment took possession of that focal
point of Cuban filibustering.
Three weeks had elapsed after the
disaster of Jaruca, when the Yankees,
who with their abundant supplies
counted upon continuing the defense
or Mantanzas until the arrival of fresh
re-enfor aments, sent out a flag of
truce to ask for an armistice, promis-
ing to abandon the island.
Great was the surprise which this
event produced in the besiegers' camp,
but 1t was soon learned that the social
lists and anarchists of the United States,
aValllng themselves of the general dis
satisfaction produced by the disasters
OF war, had risen in arms, and were
burning, sacking and killing. The
army was permitted to leave and the
last Anglo American soon left.
Cuba having been abandoned by the
North American army and the insur-
gents lacking aid or even the hope of
obtaining it, the complete pacifica ton
OF the territory was an easy matter.
Tranquility was eventually restored
in the United States, after a more Bit
ter and relentless warfare for the re-
preston and punishment of the dis
turbers of public order than even the
Spanish had waged in Cuba, and a
definitive treaty of peace and friend
ship was signed by the governments OF
Washington and Madrid.
BY one of it's clauses the Island of
Key West was ceded to us, but as the
Spanish government had forever re-
nounced all ideas of territorial acquisi-
tions in America-for it was costly
enough to preserve the last remnant of
its ancient patrimony beyond the seas
it decided to present the little island
to Mexico.

Stories of Lincoln.

When President Lincoln heard of the
rebel raid at Fairfax, in which briga-
dier general and a number of horses
were captured, he remarked:
well, am sorry on account of the
horses"
Sorry for the horses!" exclaimed the
secretary of war in astonishment.
Yes" replied Lincoln; IT can make
brigadier general in five minutes, but
it is not an easy matter to replace 110
horses"
During the war an Austrian count
applied to President Lincoln for posi-
tion in the army. He was introduced
by the Austrian minister, but as If
fearing that his Importance might not
be duly appreciated, he proceeded to
explain his nobility and high stand
ing. With a merry twinkle in his eye
Mr.. Lincoln laid his hand on the
counts shoulder and said:
"Never mind; you shall be treated
with just as much consideration for all
that"
Lincoln had the following good story
on President Tyler:
During Mr.. Tyler's incumbency of
the office he arranged to make an ex-
cursion in some direction and sent his
son Bob to arrange for a special train.
1t happened that the railroad superin-
tendent was a strong Whig. AS such
he had no favors to bestow on the
president, and informed Bob that his
road did not run any special trains for
the president.
What said Bob did you not fur
nish a special train for the funeral of
Gen. Harrison?'
Yes said the superintendent, 'and
If you'll bring your father in that con-
dition you shall have the best train on
the road"
In conversing with friend about the
way his administration was criticized
and attacked, President Lincoln said:
after all, it reminds me OF couple
of emigrants fresh from the Emerald
Isle. They We're making their way
westward in search of work, when one
evening coming suddenly upon a pond
of water they were greeted with frog
chorus-a music they had never heard
before.

adequate idea can be obtained only by
a trip of inspection along the canal.
Monster engines were built expressly
for the work they were to do, and
hosting machines, the like of which
had never been seen, were invented by
engineers and contractors. Cars, spe-
cially constructed, are loaded by steam
shovels and drawn by steam hoists up
a steep incline to a proper height
where they are run on to q tipple and
automatically dumped. Bridges were
erected on the sections of solid rock,
spanning the spoil bank at a proper
height, their supporting piers being car
ried on trucks which travel on tracks
parallel with the channel. From the
channel end of the bridge an inclined
track runs down into the cut. Cars are
loaded and run up the incline on to
the bridge, automatically dumped and
then returned to the pit. Then there
is a mammoth conveying machine,
which Is essentially a bridge spanning
the channel, with cantilever arms ex-
tending far enough beyond on each
side to cover the spoil area. On this
structure are mounted the necessary
sprocket wheels and other machinery
for carrying series of steel pans
which form the conveyor belt, an ap-
paratus which carries about $500 cubic
yards in ten hours to the spoil dump.

Al veteran correspondent. discussing
this matter of secret session publica-

day:
There used to be a man in the sem
ate" said he, who was a sticlSler for
executive secrecy. He was so straight
laced that he could hardly breathe. One
day 1 wanted some information about
an extradition treaty and 1 knew that
this senator was in the opposition. SO
I summoned up all my courage and
went to him.
"'Young man. said he, do you know
that this Is executive business, and
that ] am bound by my obligation to
reveal nothing?"
'I admitted that I knew all this"
But he continued, you are also a
newspaper man. Now If 1 were you I
would say
And with that" said the corres-
pondent "he talked to me for an hour,
telling me everything / wanted to
know, but referring to everything in a
suppostitious manner. When he got
through he looked at me and said:
Now, young man, remember that you
act very wrongly when you ask a sena-
tor to tell you anything about execu-
tive sessions, and / haven't told you q
thing"

Character Outlined i'm Ludicrous Incidents
Which Amuse While They Instruct.

Secretary Sherman's forgetfulness of
faces is proverbial. He almost broke
the heart of William II. Callxins, of
LaPorte, Ind, who was in congress
some years ago, by mistaking him for
the sergeant -at-arms of the senate.
Mr.. Sherman, as w. E. Curtis tells the
story, was a candidate for the presi-
DENTAL nomination, and Mr.. Calkins
was one Of his most ardent supporters.
There arrived in Washington one day
a delegation of prominent citizens from
northern Indiana, and when evening
came on and they had nothing else to
do Calkins suggested that they call on
Senator Sherman. Most of the party
objected, because they were strangers
to him, but Calkins assured them that
the senator from Ohio was his most in

Gam bling on PRAYERS.

Rev. Charles Mel, the chaplain of
the California state senate, has en-
deared himself to the members by his
short prayers, ss he did to his congre-
cation by his short sermons. When
he first entered the senate chamber
with his reputation for brevity Senator
Vorheis modestly wagered Senator
Denison a cigar that the chaplain
would not waste a minute In prayer
for such an irredeemable gang of poll
ticians. Vorhes lost. The prayer last
ed just a minute and ten seconds.
The next morning the senator was
anxious for revenge, so wagered Deni-
son another cigar on the same PROPOSE
tion. The chaplain cut his prayer sew
en- seconds, and Vorheis lost again by
three seconds. He knew tine pastors
reputation, however and observed that
he had cut the prayer a little, so on
reassembling the next morning he bet
Depison another cigar and lost by the
Amen" So the betting went on day
after day and week after week, Vor-
heis winning about one bet in ten.
The other evening Senator Vorheis
met the divine on the street and asked
him as personal favor that he cut his
prayer as short as possible the next
morning, as he desired to call up an
urgent measure. The chaplain readily
a6sented.
Bet you basket of wine the prayer
doesn't last FIVE seconds" said Vor-
heis to Denison, as the presidents gav-
ell struck the desk.
Take you," and both held their
watches.
May the Creator of all shower bles-
sings on this body, Amen" was the
prayer, and Denison lost by two sec
onds.
