Congressman Johnson, of North Da-
ltota, tells a tale of Turkey which makes
ones mouth water. He says that his
people have wild turkey, the wilder the
better. Just at this season of the year
large focks fly southwark. They skim
squawlling over the prairies, within
range of shotguns, and are generally
found nearest the ground in the vicin-
ity of the large lakes which are found
in nearly every county. They are baked
and dressed there as elsewhere; and
with sweet potatoes, squash, tomatoes
and canned corn as side dishes, they
furnish food fit for families of for
tune. Mr. johnson is temperance
man, and not only has no wine or other
liquor with his turkey, but finds that
his people are too poor and too sane to
spoil their Thanksgiving dinner with
intoXicants.
Secretary of War Alger says that out
side of Detroit turkeys are neither en-
tirely toothsome nor wholesome. De-
troit is the only place on earth where
wives, women, cooks, sons, daughters
and entire families know how to cook
and eat the national bird. He admits
that all Michigan is constantly in a
Thanksgiving condition, because of the
soil, climate and superior population;
but he thinks that Detroit takes the
cake. He also admits that Fort street
beats all other parts of Detroit, and
that turkey is sweeter there than any
where else on earth; even in Michigan.
Senator Mason, of Illinois, has fond
ness for the atmosphere of Chicago and
thinks that the lake breezes and the
prairie zephyrs give zest to ones
Thanksgiving appetite. When the snow
is on the ground in Chicago, and a biz
gard is blocking traffic, the senator
think that a well-seryed turkey, with or
without Kentucky trimmings, would
make the rankest infidel on earth come
to his knees in an attitude of thanksgiv-
ing.
Judging from their home-loving
prejudices, it would seem that the
statesmen regard turkey much as Gen.
Hancock regarded the tariff. "as local
issue"
"Tha eagle is not the national Bird

Ina. "rhe eagle was never the ma

tional bird. Moreover, the eagle is
doomed to extinction, while turkey, the
real national bird, win never become
extinct. The domestic bird win always
be cultivated while the wild turkey

bird. lie goes north in the spring
time, and he comes south in the fall.
The wild turkeys fatten on the fields Of
the Yankees, and they come to South
Carolina just in time for our Thanks
giving feasts. South Carolina is always
patriotic on Thanksgiving day. We eat
and drink in harmony with the Yankees
of New England and with the money
changers Of Wall street on that day.

but Turkey cannot last forever.
The Armenian question is not now
Cppermost, nor is the sale of eau
casian girls under consideration. On
the contrary, our people are looking
with smiles of satisfaction upon the
slaughter of Turkey itself.
Congressman talk of it in the cloak
rooms, senators discuss il at home with
their wives, and the president, as well
as his cabinet ministers. is telling
tales of Turkey to the exclusion of
every other subject.
1t was the same way last year at This
season. People forgot Cuba and all
other foreign affairs, while Turkey
alone was the subject of discussion.
Amos Cummings says that one of the
most graphic tales of Turkey ever heard
was told by Congressman McMillin, of
Tennessee.
The greatest dinner that McMillin
ever enjoyed was at log house, when
he was callow youth, Just returning
from n Kentucky university. A large
turkey had been secured. On the day
before Thanksgiving it had been care
fully picked and drawn. That night
however, some appreciative darby had
thrown the family into CONSERVATION
by abstracting the bird The theft
was discovered about ten p. m. Mean
time terrific gale arose. 1t almost
reached the fury of a tornado. The log
house stood the blast. The wooden
shutters were closed, and the bowling
wind outside made the lockwood fire
dance as il in glee. sending a shower of
sparks up the chimney. Suddenly there
was a smash against the wooden shutter
outside. A blood-curdling sound was
heard. Securing lantern the head of
the household went out quickly and re-
turned.
He had in his hand two huge tur-
keys with bronzed legs andruff1ed feath-
ers. One was a gobbler, the other
hen. They had been torn from their
roosts in the mountains, borne miles
on the gale, and thrown against the
rude cabin by the hand of Providence
to take the place of the turkey that the
negro had distracted. Providence had
made no mistake in this case, for the
family were good, old-fashioned, hard
shelled Baptists. They returned thanks
on the spot, and on the following day

LeprOnX In Frnnce.

At the international congress of Gp-
rosy, which has just been brought to a
conclusion at Berlin, the startling fact
was ELECTED that the disease is very
prevalent in France, especially in the
northern districts thereof, and that it
is on the increase. This discovery and
the data furnished by the French med
zeal authorities contributed in no small
measure to the resolution voted by the
congress TO the effect that leprosy is
contagious.

Thanksgiving APPETIZER
Nobody calls us anarchists on Thanks.
giving day. We are then regarded as
American citizens; the equals of the
lily-fngered patricians of the north
1t is quite likely that the Palmetto
statesman balances a pitchfork on his
knees, even while eating his Thanks
giving dinner
The snow is creaking and cracking
under the bobsleds in Minnesota" says
Congressman Heatwole, of the Gopher
state. THE dinner of turkey is grand
and every farmers family can afford
one, too. The people of three genera
tions gather about the table, and they
eat until they can eat no more; particu-
larly the boys and girls whose youthful
appetites are sharpened by the clear,
dry, cold air that sweeps over the
prairies. But eating turkey don't end
Thanksgiving day in Minnesota. The
boys and girls get out the horses, bob
sleds, sleigh-bells, buffalo robes, gloves
and mufflers at night, and out under
the diamond-studded sky they go driv-
| ing; either to visit friends or to attend
some country entertainment. There's
lots of love-making on those drives. The
foundations of happy homes are often
laid out under the Thanksgiving stars"
In the mild climate of Virginia and
Maryland, on the beautiful Potomac,
where the national capital is located,
it makes one SILVER to the marrow to
think of the boys and girls having "a
good time" in their bob-sleds, making
love and plighting their troth under
! the stars, with the thermometer at or
below zero
They may talk of their good time in
the north, south east and west, but
! Washington city is the ideal place to
spend Thanksgiving day, tell tales of
turkey and enjoy the annual feast of
reason and flow of soul. There is no
snow, no rain, no hail; and not even
breezes that buster and chill. The
streets as well as the sidewalks are dry.
We need no goloshes, nor arctics. We
need no buffalo robes, nor sealsldns.
Nature has given ne the genial medium
climate and atmosphere which induce.
and conduce, comfort, good cheer and
longevity.
No finer turkeys are taken to any
market than are to be found here.
Some of them live and gobble until the
day of their sacrifice. The majority Of
them, however, come to market with
out their gobble, without their feath-
ers, showing their white skin drawn
tight over wholesome fat, and their
yellow legs cleaning as the tempting
"drumsticks' for the children.
But, after all, while we have Thanks
giving in the white house, Thanksgiv-
ing in the houses of the cabinet minis
tiers, Thanksgiving in the houses of
senators, Thanksgiving in the homes
of representatives., Thanksgiving in the
homes of diplomats, Thanksgiving in
the homes of millionaipes, and Thanks
giving in the homes of the plain peo-
pie of the republic, it may be well for
us to be really Thanksgiving, and to
remember that there is coming a day
when "the rich and the poor shall meet
together; for the Lord is the maker of
us ALL" SMITH d. FRY.
