WHERE MAN DIsposFs.
1t was a peculiar experience to
hunt water fowl on the open arid cac-
tus plain under the burning desert
sun and at an altitude of more than
1000 feet. And yet because in the
scientific nowadays the apothegm
that "Man proposes, but God dispos-
es" is reversed l had this very expe-
rience. Immediately about this chain
of great artificial lakes. the trinity of
the plains, prairie dogs, owls and
rattlesnakes abound. Theirs are the
primeyal and the present towns. But
geese and ducks in their season and
curlew and snipe, most of the time,
swarm in this unnatural man made
home in the arid desert Curlew re-
viyed hunting ardor dormant for
many years ard was able to cap
ture a fine bag of this exceedingly
palatable game. Fish are abundant
in all these lakes
While very little diking has been
necessary in completing these great
water basins, yet n good deal of
money is being expended in masonry
and great iron cylinders for passages
from one reservoir to another. There
is telephone communication with the
headgates of the main bitches. so
that information as to the amount of
water drawn from the river is con
stantly furnished to the superinten-
dent and the equities of priority
rights are constantly adjusted.
a NATURAL hEyERsIoN
But men often make momentous
mistakes IN disregarding the plain
indications OF nature. Ten years ago
the country south of the Arkansas
and Lamar was settled by pioneers
who made the srievoas inis.ake of
calculating that the natural rainfall
was sufficient to make the buffalo
grass and cactus plateau productive
under cultivation Within three or
| four years every would be farmer had
learned and acknowledged his error
and in all this wide region there is
scarcely a settlers home to be found.
Wild antelope and scarcely less wild
cattle have come to their own again.
Lamar Is common rendezvous for
the real cowboy of the plains. But
even he is fast degenerating into CIV.
ilization aud the old inhabitant is just
beginning to observe and complain
that only an occasional individual
representative of this famous type of
men is now to be ionnd. 1t is inter
esting to note that that indigenous,
ubiquitous American entity, the
fourth-class postmaster, was the last
to JOIN this eHodous from the unin-
habitnble plains. He furnished the
exception 10 the rule that public of
ficers do not resign He wanted to
resign in these regions very numer-
ously, but couldn't because possible
successors had fed the country and
he was often left resigned to fate,
the sole denizen of his once populous
but now deserted village. until the
tsrdy rontine of official red tape
should be unwonud from about him.
Business adversities of late have
taught MS skepticism about sure or
extravagant profits outside the ad-
vantage of trusts or gold mines
proper. But / think that the owner
of land in the eantaloupe district
comes as near being comlnander-in-
chief, of seft snap, in moderate
way, any body gets in these doubtful
business days.

DIsLIKEs COURT ETIQUETTE.
ItaIy's Beautiful Queen Is Anxious to
Dispense With AS Much of 1t
as Possible.

The beautiful queen of Italy has a great
dislike to court etiquette and dispenses with
as much of it as she can in her. everyday
life. When she receives visits from her init
mate friends they are carried out in 4 most
informal manner. Such visits are generally
paid in the afternoon, after the simple mid
day meal which is usually taken by their
majesties of Italy. accompanied by one or
two of the ladies and gentlemen of the
household.
Her majesty's guest is seated upon a sofa
beside the queen, with whom she often has
a quarter of an hours chat without inter-
ruption. The ladies and gentlemen in at
tendance are in another room at the time.
Such ladies of the household are on duty
for many hours at a time. usually from 10

cratic families "a few from each principal

THE HORSE GETS MORE.
He Draws Wages in Russix Higher
Than Those of
Men.

In Russia the wages Of a horse, As 1t
were, are higher than those OF a man and
hence. of course. very much higher than the
wages Of women. Thus. in the Nishni-
Volga section, We find the average pay of
and horse to be about Y cents per day;
or man alone. "a cents; that is, IS cents for
horse and "a cents for man The women re-
ceive from 10 to 20 cents. In the central
agricultural region the average is: Horse,
% cents; man, 20 cents; woman, 13 cents.
In the Southern steppe: Horse. Is cents.
man, IS cents: woman. 16 cents
This is an interesting commentary on
the standard of living Of Russian agri-
cultural laborers, says Gunton's Maya
zine. Its meaning is, simply. that human
beings are cheaper there than draft ami
mails. In other words, 1t costs less to keep
them alive In the Southern steppe five
women can be employed more cheaply h

Rich Statesmen Property Owners.


Cal Brice rented his house in Washing
ton. So does Vice President Hobart. and
so also nearly every memb of the pres
ent cabinet, except John Sherman. Secre-
tary Sherman has seldom paid rent. When
he first came to Washington, forty odd
years AGO., he boarded for a time at Viii
lard's hotel. Then he lived down below
the capitol, in what was the old. fashion
able part of Washington. One day he told
Mrs. Sherman that he had bought a house
near Franklin square. This square was
then a playground for the boys of Wash
ington. 1t had an old board fence about
it. and Mrs. Sherman felt as though she
were going in the country to live. AS
Washington grew, however, the best houses
were built in that neighborhood, and Sher-
mans property became very valuable. He
bought several lots on each side of him.,
and, after a time, he put up the building
now occupied by the Chilean legation and
moved into it. This was the structure
built when he was secretary Of the treas
ury under Hayes. As time went on the lot
which he had left became so much more
valuable that he could not afford to lose
the interest on the money in it, and he
erected the big mansion in which he now
lives. / don't know what it cost him. but
il would. l Judge. sell for at least $4,000

A ves.er.. Strange Escape.

A rock and a fish saved the good ship
Nelson from sinking. The Nelson is an
English vessel. which recently arrived at

seven days passage from Liverpool. When

heavy gales and was driven on q rock. She
Immediately got of. but water began to
rise in her hold despite the crews exertions
at the pumps After great difficulty the
vessel entered Wellington harbor and extra
pumps were brought into play. Still the
water rose and the captain and crew re-
moved their belongings to land in expecta-
tons that the Nelson would sink. For
%tunately their fears were not realized, for
with better working Of tho pumps tho rush
of water was finally overcome.
The vessel was subsequently examined
by a diver. In his report he stated that
in one of the holes a piece OF rock was
pammed and in another q fish was squeezed
tail first, and both were responsible for
preventing the water flowing in to a greater
extent.

Of women. stripped to the waist in token
of woe, danced in a circle, chanting in
melancholy chorus, swaying their supple
forms, beating their breasts. and throwing
dust over their heads. Thu chief mourner
was the daughter Of the slain man. who
brandished over her head the naked sword
of her father as she danced and chanted
with the others Later In the day a much
large number OF women collected to cele-
brate the fantasia of victory-a far more
savage performance than the first. More
rapidly beat the tomtoms; with quicker
motion and more fierce gestures circled the
dancers; in louder tones they sang their |
hymns Of triumph, which had a cruel ring |
in them. bringing up memories Of slaughter
and rapine to those who listened. The |
women waved long Dervish swords during
this ceremony, which terminated with q
