A Modest Demand.

Tuesday the widow of Jim Wesley,
an Indian who died suddenly in The
palles about year ago, appeared at
the Office of g well known notary in
the city with complaint that one of
her horses had been run over and
killed by railroad train near Cello.
and requested that ths notary put in a
claim for damages to the RAILROAD COM
pauy. Imagining that he saw in the
case fat fee, the notary at once pre-
pared the claim, which was an elabor-
ate document, AID when it was COM
pleJed asked the widow to state the
AMOUNT of her damages. Now Mrs.
Wesley is good honest Indian, and
heeds the admonition that ssthou shalt
Hot lie," and knowing that horseaesh
is not overly valuable at present, fEed
the damages at $3.50. This was q
sumner for the notary, who had exc
pected at least $40 fee out OF the jon.
II the claim is allowed, the squaw will
still owe the solicitor $3.50 for his
work, and as she is not millionaire;
in fact her whole estate is not valued
at that amount, the notary will find it
difficult to collect his bill.

TO SUBSCRIBERS.

During the past two years ol
extreme dull times the Times
Mountaineer has been sent reg
ularly to a great many who no
doubt appreciate the paper, but
who have not been called upon
for a settlement of their sub
scription. During those years
we have endeavored to keep the
paper going without calling up
on delinquents, knowing that
money was difficult to get; but
now that times have improved
we feel that our patrons should
not only settle all arrearages,
but pay their subscription one
wear in advance. We have trust
ed many of you one and two
years, and feel that a return of
the compliment is due. You
are therefore urgently requested
to pay up back subscriptions and
one year in advance, which will
entitle you to the Times-Moun-
taineer and the Webfoot Planter
one year as a premium.
