A Struggle In Pullman Which Inter-
ested the Car.
traveller recently witnessed an
amusing episode on train between
Chicago and Kansas City. A very re-
spectacle and well to do old gentleman
was in the car. When bedtime came,
he struggled with his boots He first
put one foot ON his knee and rugged.
AS he was travelling his boots were new.
The boot wouldn't bulge in that posi-
ton, so he placed the toe of the other
boot against the heel and tried it that
way. The boot stuck Then he hooked
his foot AROUND the other leg and took
hold of the heel and tried to work" it
off, but it wouldn't come. At last he
went in search of the porter and de-
manded bootjaok.
"Clar to goodness, boss, amt got one
in de oyah. Unc' George don't furnish
us no bootjacks. -
Sympathizing passengers tried to
think the old man out of his troubles,
and drummer. as usual, brought forth
the best suggestion:
Make the porter pull them off, he
said.
So the porter took off his jacket and
turned back his cuffs and went to work.
He tugged and pulled and seesawed
the boot back and forth and perspired
and grunted, but the boot wouldn't
move. The drummer filled the breach
again.
Il used to pull my grandfather's
boots off sometimes when was a boy"
he said "Tell you how did it. Turn
round, he said to the darky. The
darky turned. NOW take the boot be-
tween your legs, grasp the heel and toe
and yank." The darby did so. The old
gentleman chung desperately to the seat
The boot began to move and finally slid
off, almost throwing the puller across
the car. The crowd applauded. Kansas

eter at the base (ground). This usually
requires 80 or 90 bundles. Next, instead
of getting up on this shock, or stack
bottom, and having some one pitch the
bundles to me while / lay them down
horizontally, as is usually done, re-
main ON the ground and continue there
till the last bundle is placed, when a
ladder is leaned against the stack and
the top tied.
I begin the topping out process by
grasping bundle with both hands and
lifting it, say, three feet from the
ground-laying or, more properly speak
ing, standing-it on one of the bundles
Of the last or outside course of shock or
stack bottom. / continue in this way,
walking around the stack and placing
bundles "side by side," until I come
around to the starting place. This COM
pletes the first elevated course. The
butts of this course being about three
feet from the ground, brings them to a
point about where the bundles under
meath are tied See cut
The bundles for the next or second
elevated course are placed in order by
means of two tined pitchfork. The
butts of this course are about six feet
from the ground, and, like the butts of
the first elevated course, come to about
the middle of the bundles underneath.
The butts of the third or last course.
consisting of, say, eight or ten bundles,
are placed about nine feet from the
ground. This makes stack about IA
feet in height. When the last course is
placed in order, the top of the stack is
securely tied in two plaoes-one within
foot or two Of the extreme top and
the other around the butts Of the top
course
Two men are not required to put up
this kind of stack I built ten such
stacks this year myself without any as
sistance put in about 120 bundles in
stack.
In stacking in this way there are no
bundles lying down with butts sticking
outward, as in stacks as usually built.
They all stand up in an almost perpen-
dioular form-butts down, tops up. The
bundles having SO much 'pitch" they
shed the water perfectly.
In feeding from such stack begin
with the ground course, as the bundles
may be easily pulled out. The top
bundles remain untouched till the last,
thus leaving no part of the stack ex-
posed to the weather.
I adopted this plan three or four
years ago and like it quite we'll Its ad-
vantages are: Q) The bundles having
so much pitch they shed the water COM
pletely. (2) In feeding therefrom the
bottom bundles are fed first and the top
left to protect the stack till the last.

the wagon and construct such stack

General William W. Henry, whom the
President has appointed to be Consul to
Quebec, has been grand master of a
grand lodge Of Masons, is member of the
l. 0. 0. F. and G. A. R., having been the
second to be elected department com
mander in his state of Vermont.
His war record was brilliant. Enlisting
as private, he was engaged in the first
battle of Bull Run. He was promoted for
bravery to first lieutenant, soon rose to be
major, was promoted to lieutenant col
onelcy; then became colonel, and in 1866
was breveted brigadier general for merit
orious service during the war. He was
wounded at the battles of Cold Harbor,
Monocacy, and four times at the battle of
Cedar Creek. He has been state senator
from two different districts. was U. S.
Marshal for seven years, and mayor of
Burlington for Two terms.
Coming from such man, such an in

An officer of the English intelligence
department reports that in spite of the
fact, which is well known, that the sea
has receded since ancient times, the
strategical position of this ancient pass
is still immensely strong. The alterna-
tive route by Deleghi, which crosses the
hills mile and half north of the
springs by well engineered zigzags, is
equally capable of defense and leads in
to country of most difficult charao-
ter. Either pass might be held indefi-
nitely by 5000 men. The coast road is
absolutely commanded from the heights
so that a comparatively small force
would render it impossible, while the
fiat lowland lying near the sea is
marshy and intersected by dikes.

The oat crop ripens later than other
small grains. 1t therefore gives less
time to prepare the seed bed from its
stubble for sowing either wheat or rye
Yet if the land is plowed as soon as the
grain is off and the field is immediate
ly narrowed and rolled SO as to preserve
its moisture a good seed bed may be
made. Dat stubble is soft and rots
quickly when buried in moist soil.
There is another objection to sowing
wheat after oats in the fact that both
are exhaustive, especially of mineral
fertility. But a dressing of 100 pounds
of standard phosphate will replace
what the oat crop has removed, and on
most land secure better wheat crop on
the stubble than could be made on a
summer fallow without the phosphate.

strange Domestic Pets.

Mr.. Hutchinson, while British resi-
dent at Kumassi, had a panther pre-
sented to him by the king of Ashanti.
This animal he succeeded in tanning
and transformed from a forest terror
into domestic pet. Charles James Fox
had young tiger which showed great
affection for him, until one day, while
licking it's masters hand, it scraped off
the skin. At the first taste Of blood its
dormant instincts returned, and its
glaring eyes revealed to Mr.. Fox his
danger. Without attempting to remove
his hand he led it by gentle words into
the next room, where loaded pistol
hung over the mantelpiece. Reaching
it down, he shot his now dangerous pet
through the head.

PRAYERS THE LITTLE CHILDREN SAY.

The prayers the little children say
They are not fine of speech,
But they hold deeper mystery

And they reach farther up to heaven
Than wiser prayers can reach.

The prayers the little children say.
The prayers the little children say
No toiling angel brings.
They pass right through the shining ray
That searches selfish things.
(They are so little that they slip
Between the guarding wings.)
And God says "Hush and give them wayi"

They have forgot his name.

if the pattern was drawn before CHS

artist proceeded with a chisel and file

THE KIPPIE VERDICT.

The verdict in the Ripple case was a
surprise to the attorneys who have
worked so hard and faithfully in Kip
pies defense. 1t was also a surprise
to many who had watched the pro-
ceedings closely and had concluded that
Ripple was mentally weak and wrong
enough to escape hanging. The trial
has been a very thorough one The
prisoner has been treated with great
fairness by the State He has been
ably defended at the expense of the
State, and his defense has included
some costly, ingenious, positive and
impressive expert testimony But the
jury has evidently not paid much at
'tention to the theory that Ripple COM
mitted brutal murder in a moment of
epileptic rage and alteration. 1t has
concluded that his rage was natural
and in keeping with his nature, and
| that his deed was wilful and deliberate
enough to come under the law and it's
punishment. The jury was greatly
aided in coming to the conclusion it
reached by the powerful, clear and
! convincing argument Of States Attor-
ney Williams, who has strong and
common-sense way of putting things.
