Uses For Old Newspapers.

An exchange Offers this hint about
old newspapers. Don't throw them
away; they cost practically nothing,
and are so useful for domestic pur-
poses. Dipped in cold water they make
the best window cleaners: just rub the
windows over with the wet paper, and
they are clean with very little labor.
Crush some paper in the hand and rub
the cooking stove over when the cook
ing is finished: it removes the grease
quickly, and keeps the stove in capital
order if it is done frequently, so that
the grease does not corrode. Rub the
hair brushes every morning with a
pad of paper: it removes the dust A
piece OF newspaper rolled into ball
or pad is good substitute for sauce
pan brush. A few newspapers, per-
forated with small holes for ventila-
ton, tackled: n to a blanket, make q
very warm and comfortable bed cover
ing on cold nights. Spillslfor lighting
lamps and candles are most useful, but
are not always to be found even in we'll
regulated households, and yet in idle
moments dozens can be made out of an
old newspaper. Again, torn into small
shreds Ia nice amusement for q child,
by the way), curled up and put into q
washing tick, they make q clean and
wholesome bed for the baby, and can
be constantly renewed. Lastly, few
folds of newspaper under the cake tin
prevents it burning while in the oven.

The True Story of Manila.

The following extracts from FL
Heraldo de Puerto Rico cannot help
but be of interest: We know now how
the Yankee fights. On sea neither his
vessels, with nickel-steel armor, nor
his many cannon of 20 centimetre
calibre. are of any use to him. Mon
toto, the heroic Montoio in command
of few vessels, some mere pontOOns,
gave the valiant Americans the finest
drubbing registered in naval chro-
nicles. Back to Hong Kong will go
the nlustrious hogs with dropping
shouts, endeavoring to fill up the holes
which our Insignificant cannon made
in the invulnerable armor of their ships.
And on hand? All. On land it is the
strangest and most surprising thing
that our readers can imagine. Two
armor-clads. three cruisers, six
launches, armed with mitrailleuses
and cannon; fveolighters full of dirty
and greasy Yankees: all this was
directed toward Spanish soil and pro-
ceeded noisily to Mariel. But at
Mariel were the Corona rifemen. a
gallant battalion that received the
hogs at fair range. And. oh.
Cowardice. never before seen; those

The Man in His Home.

"The seclusion of home gives to q
man q certain freedom and attendant
privileges which no other place in the
world affords, and it Is right that it
should" writes Edward Box of ''The
Man in his.Home, Tin the ladies Home
Journal. But it is not right that
this freedom and those privileges
should be abused to the disadvantage
of the wife. Too many men seem to
have the idea that they can drop into
constant disconsolate and churlish
moods at home with their wives which
in any other place and by any other
person would not be tolerated. 1t ia
when q man is within the walls of his
home that he is himself. Then it is
that he should be at his best. When
man gives the best that is within him
to those closest to him, his home will
be the ideal place that he wishes 1t to
be. No man has right to expect
from his wife what he
on his part does not give
her. If he wants her sym
pathy ne must give his consideration.
If a man lacks the element of cOnside-
ration he should cultivate it, and Gull
tiuate it not for the benefit of his
friends but for those in and of his
home. Consideration should begin at
home; not in the homes of friends, as it
so often dOes---and ends there, too. The
atm osphere which q man creates in his
home by example becomes the rule by
which his children live. The husband
and father strikes the keynote for right
or wrong liVinp.'

An Arab proVerb.

Who can affirm that the mule enter
ed the jug? asks the Chicago Inter-
Ocean, and replies to the proverb-que-
ry in the following strain.
This proverb is frequently quoted
to show that, though one may con-
sclentiously believe in thing which
may seem extravagant in itself, it is
better not to repeat 1t for fear of being
dfsbelieved. It arises from the.follow-
ing Arabic legend. An Arab who de-
MED the existence of GENT bought q
mule and took it home. When per-
forming his evening additions he saw
the mule enter into Jug, and
this so scared him that he ran
shouting to neighbours and told them
what he had seen. They, thinking
him mad, endeavoured to sppease him,
but all in vain; he vociferated more
and more, so that the authorities sent
him to the madhouse. When the
doctor came to see him he repeated the
account of what he had seen, where
upon the doctor ordered him to be de-
tanned. He continued, upon each subse-
quent visit of the doctor, to repeat his
statement, until his friends succeeded

hot on the trail of a train robber. The
best of that interesting story has not
been told. 1t was this: Buckley fol
lowed the man, eacn on horseback,
for over 300 miles, and although he
gained, still the man kept lead, and
finally, as the Mexican boundary was
almost reached boundary that
meant freedom to the fugitive-Buck-

nightfall, and discovered that the man
had stolen the best horse from the
stable and gone Oh, about hve or SIX
hours in advance.
Though worn out, it was plainly
Buckeyes only chance, and thai slim
one, to dash right ahead without even
waiting for a meal, and he at once took
I'D the trail that led him directly out
upon the last stretch of country this
side of the Mexican frontier. 1t was q
trackless desert, and Bucky had gone
four miles when he saw, in the bright
moonlight, a strange figure approach
ing. Riding up it proved to be the
man he sought, who had discovered
and recognized him, and Immediately
upon SO doing had detached from be-
hind him on the horse q woman whom
he had been carrying, and straight
away q fusillade between the two men
began.
It was sharp. quick work. and in q
moment Buckley had shot his antagon-
ist in the shoulder and the man had
thrown up his hands.
Making fast the prisoner, Buckley
turned his attention to the woman, and
discovered that she was school teach
er from the hamlet he had lately pas
sed through, and that the train rObber
had run across her, lost, and faintlng
from fatigue and exposure in the de-
sert, whereupon he, although in sight
of liberty, had restored the woman by
giving her whiskey and had then put
her on his horse and retraoed his steps,
in order to get her back within easy
reach of her home. This accounted for
his capture.
The woman begged Buckley 10 let
the man go, but, although sorely temp
ted to do so, be refused, and conveyed
his prisoner back to Arizona, where
he was sentenced to life Imprisonment
at Yuma.
The woman was well-born New
England girl. AS soon as her health
was restored she went to Arizona, be-
sought the governor to pardon the pri-
soner, and finally succeeded in secur-
ing the pardon, though she had to

camp on the governors trail for long
time to induce him to order that act of
clemency and poetic justice.
There is but one instance in
Buckeyes life when he showed the
white feather. He was living in
Mexico at the time and unfortunately
for him one of the women of the ter
ritory took great fancy to Buckley.
He tried to leave the place and get
in another camp. She OWNED his in

1t came at last. Some Epglish ca

man who never knew fear, who had

dred intrepid Arizona citizens, all as
anxious and as proud to die as Buckley
died-with his boots on and his face to
the enemy.
William Owen O'Neill was born of
Irish parentage in ST. Louis in 1860:
Coming east with his mother and
brothers he graduated from the Ma
tionsl Law school of the District OF
Columbia. Later, out of seventy-two
applicants for assistant paymaster OF
the navy, he passed at the head.
There was some delay in making the
appointment, and O'Neill, chatting for
action, went to Arizona, where, at diff
ferent periods. he edited the Arizona
Miner, the Phoenix Herald, and the
Hoof and Horn, q cattleman's organ.
Clear headed and some what pro-
phetic, he decided that Arizona was
the place to get a foothold. He got a
half interest in several good mining
properties, and his wonderful energy
and leadership began to assert itself.
The miners came to him to settle their
brawls: the rangers acc opted him as
the court OF final appeal, go equitable
and just were his rulings. Finally he
was elected judge of Yavapai county,
and sat on the bench for some
time.
Subsequently he was elected sheriff
for three consecutive terms, and while
in that Office demonstrated his courage
and fearlessness. None of the desper-
ADDE'S OF Arizona ran amuck more than
once in Sheriff O'Neill's bailiwick.
in the territory and also the best
shot.
Finally, after many ups and downs.
with desperate chances and five fights
with six-shooters, in which he got the
drop on law breakers, he retired as
sheriff of Yavapai county and moved
to Prescott, Ariz., where he ran three
times for congress, being defeated in
each instance by q small majority. His
next political venture was to run for
mayor OF Prescott. He was elected
unanimously, and the only vote against
him was cast by himself. Every man,
woman and child in Arizona knew and
called him "Buckey", and every one
loved him.
. When the war broke out Buckley had
been living q somewhat quiet and
uneventful life. When Roosevelt's
regiment was being formed, he quick
ly decided to raise company, and he
got a quota of troops together with
such rapidity that President McKln-
ley sent him q telegram of thanks.
There was not a man in Arizona who
would not have been glad to die by
Buckley" O'Neill's side. '.t,-
Nearly three hundred cowboys, mir-
ers, citizens, and politicians of Ari.
IONA enlisted under him, and the whole
company rode down to San Antonio
and was received with open arms.
The women of Prescott presented
him with silk flag (the first raised
near Sevilla, Cubs) and the men pre-
sented him with q revolver. Judge
Ling made the presentation speech in
these words:
Mayor O'Neill, we want to give
you q mount. 1t is not full grown,
but merely a Colt. We tell you that
