growth of crap grass and nimble will,
dry as tinder. Old Pard said, while
will gather an armful of trash to make
| fire at the house. About fifty or
sixty steps beyond the house was an
old barn, as dry as tinder, but there
was nothing in 1t. As got down on
my knees to strike fire with my dint
and steel. q was in hurry for the
storm was upon us). I had put small
bunch of tow and poured little pow
der on the tow. AS | struck the flint
with the steel, spark caught the
powder, and when the powder flashed
up the wind caught the blaze and car
ried it into the crap grass, and before
| could spring up that dry grass was
blazing as high as my head, and the
wind driving the fire right towards
the old stable. AS Old Pard saw the
light he came running out and said,
''Well, you've done it this time.
Blame my skin, If that old barn amt
a goneri'' l don't think I was ever
worse frightened in my life, for I was
certain nothing could save the barn,
for the wind was blowing like fury;
sometimes the fire would almost go
over the top of the barn, then the
wind would send back the other way,
and there [ stood, too frightened to
move, from where | stood. | think
must have lost at least years growth,
but just as the fire gave big leap
right at the barn, the clouds bursted
right over our head and such a dash
of rain came pouring down as to nearly
drown everything. | was as wet in a
minute as if had been in the creek,
and not spark of fire to be seen.
When we got in the house, | soon
made good fire in the fireplace and
we fixed US some seats before the fire
and dried ourselves. About two or
three o'clock in the morning the storm
was over and we took our guns and
the turkeys we had killed and started
out to find the rest of the flock. 1t
wasn't long before we were among
those turkeys Staying them.
When daylight came and the turkeys
that we had not killed had got down
from their roosts. we started for home.
When we came in sight of home we
saw all of the men folks coming out of
the door from breakfast. When they
saw US they waited for US to come up
to them. AS they did so, father shook
hands with US and said, "Well, we'll,
you have done pretty well, and where
were you in all that storm?" l did
not know what made him so pleased
until we got to the breakfast table.
The girls said father had been very
much worried all the morning ''for
fear you had gone off with those folks.
He had sent up to see if you had been
in bed in the night and see if your
things were gone. He seemed very
much worried and said, 1 wonder if
they are fools enough to have gone
away" Some of the boys told him
they guessed they would turn up all
right. for they heard me tell Old Pard
about those turkeys and ''you know
Theodore would never go after any
girls if there was prospect of deer
or turkey. So you need not worry
about him as far as those girls are
concerned"
O, forgot to tell you we had, as
as near as l can remember, six or
seven turkeys piece, for we rar
pretty near even killing them that
night. L. L. X.

The Farmer and the Gold Standard.

Farmers have more at stake in OPP
posing the gold standard than any 9TH
er class of citizens, for the simple
reason that it affects their business
more than any other. The gold stand
ard means the same thing to them that
the doubling of the half-bushel meas
ure or the reduction of the yard stick
to eighteen inches would. In fact it
means both, for it cuts down the yard
stick and doubles the size of the meas
ure at the same tin1e. In other words,
it compels the farmer to give up more
produce for less cloth, while his taxes
and interests remain the same. Mon
ey being a measure of value, it follows
as natural result that the articles iS
measures must of necessity decrease in
value in exact proportion to fhe short
ening of the measure. You cannot
measure a yard of cloth with an eigh-
teen inch rule. Every penny of value
that you put into money comes out of
property.
Thomas jefferson was farmer, as
well as the greatest statesman the
world has yet produced. He studied
this subject thoroughly, and under
stood it perfectly, because the farmers
of his day had the same battle to fight
that we are fighting now. Under the
leadership of Hamilton, who was the
prototype of John Sherman in politics,
the country was hurried from the in
aated period of Continental paper
money to specie basis, thereby treb-
ling and quadrupiing debts and pro-
ducing universal bankruptcy. Jeffer-
son denounced this unjust and ruinous
policy in the bitterest language he
could command. "They have taken
all value out of property" he wrote,
land put it into money" They ig-
more the people and legislate only in
the interest of the banks and usurers."
He declared also that the value OF his
own farms had been reduced from $50
to $5 per acre, and rendered unstable
even at the latter price. If jefferson
were living now. and writing OF pres
ent conditions. he could not describe
them more accurately than he did in
the language we have quoted. 1t was
upon this money issue, and in opposi-
tion to the monarchical policy of the
Federal party. that Jefferson was
elected to his first term as President;
and we are fighting the same battle
over again to-day-Money and Mon
archy VS.. the People. Let the farmers
rally again to the battle cry of freedom,
as they did then, and put another JEFF
ferson in the Presidents chair in 1900,
and another long period of happiness
and prosperity will come to our coun-
try, just as it did in 1900. Mississippi

In commenting upon the Presi-
dents recommendation in regard
to the currency, Senator Teller
says: The friends of bimetal-
lism will find no encouragement
from anything the President says
in his message. No reference is
made to international bimetallism
but the President in the most en-
phatic way indicates his intention
to maintain the gold standard.
The Silver Republicans who re-
main in the Republican party and
contend that the Republican party
is friendly to silver will find no
encouragement in the President S
message, and it will strike all as
somewhat singular that if the Re-
publican party, rs it is claimed, is
in favor of international bimetal-
lism the President makes no refer
ence to it."

SAVINGS BANKS have declared
they cannot earn 4 per cent for de-
positors, and have reduced the
rate of interest to 3 ID per cent.
This action is the result of the
scarcity of safe investments. 1t is
said that the New York banks are
lending on call in Wall street at
from l 1-2 to , ID per cent and
the big insurance companies with
their vast surpluses are making
loans which formerly sought the
savings banks as low as per
cent.

THE Free Silver Republicans
need not longer hope for an inter-

ley has come out squarely for the
single gold standard, and for the
destruction of greenbaeks. The
restoration of silver as standard
money can only be hoped for
through the Democratic party.

There have been many opportuni.
ties to contrast the method Of doing
things in the navy with that which
obtains in the army, but none was
more striking than the manner in
which provision was made for the re.
ception and safe-keeping OF the pris-
oners from Cervera's fleet. Captain
Crowninshield, chief of the navigation
bureau, undertook the arrangements
though he had but forty-eight hours
notice of their arrival. He proceeded
Immediately to Portsmouth, N. H.,
and in that forty-eight hours sue
ceeded in building barracks, hospi-
tails, mess-hall, stockades, kitchens,
and all necessary sanitary arrange
ments. There was no lumber avail
able. so he borrowed some. It was
necessary to build eleven barracks,
mess-hall, a cook-house, a prison
building, latrines, two barracks for
the marine guard, quarters for the
Spanish surgeons and for the United
States naval officers in charge Of the
guard, and to inclose the whole in a
Ugh stockade, topped with a plank
walk. around which the marine
guards could patrol Them there
were installed an electric light sys-
tenn and sewerage arrangements. and
fresh water was obtained by digging
wells. While the buildings were 60
ing up Paymaster LOOMS was fixing
up the kitchen. Within ,hirty-six
hours he brought from Boston TWEEN
ty-one big ranges, set them up, and
had them under fire; and so, when
the Spanish prisoners came to Sea-
vey's Island, they found ready cooked

The Origin Of the TaIlyhO.

As quaint mixture OF words and
interjecIonai cries as have mel
with is in an old French cyclopedia
of 1863, which gives minute descrlp

scribes exactly what is TO be cried
to the hounds under all possible con
tingencies Of the chase. II the Great
ures understand grammar and syn
tax, the language couM not be more

Sometimes we have what seem pure
interiectional cries. Thus, to en-
courage the hounds to work the
huntsman is to call to them, "Ha
halle, halle, halle!" while to bring
them up before they are uncoupled
1t is prescribed that he shall call
"Hau, haul or "TIau, tahaut!" and
when they are uncoupled he Is to
change his cry to Haul Ia y Ia Ia y
