About the last literary work complct-
ed by the late Cora Stuart Wheeler was
Il beautiful tribute to "Somc Court
Painters to Queen Rose published i'll
The Wolnan's Home Companion, in
which she says:
LAS II rule. women make the best
tlcSvcr PAINTERS. The men who excel in
this hr:lMch OF art are comparatively
few, even when we consider the small
number of iii lists of both sexes who
have acquired reputation i'll the pictur-
ing of flowers. The reason is not diff
cult to see. The average woman has Il
fondness for flowers which brings her
into the closest sympathy with them
and enables her to appreciate and un-
derstand them as men seldom do. In
the Interpretation of certain subtle
phases of floral life her sensitive tenn
permanent and the peculiarly sympathetic
feeling that she is apt to bring to her
labor of love especially qualify her for
engaging i'll this department of picture
making. III point of technical ability

done by artists of the gentler sex III the

treatment of difficult subjects"

THE FARMER o
But schaeter Considers It the Shortest
Game OF His Life.

Game Oi His Ltfes
"Some years ago." said a sporting
mau, "whcn %s;claefer kept a billiard
room in this city, he was always ready
to play all corners who desired a game.
Many strangers and people unknown to
Schacfer naturally strolled in; many,
too, who probably did not know him.
But it made no difference to Schacfer.
Sometimes strangers would desire to
play for money, but this Sclluefer would
never do. To al such propositions he
would say: NO. l won't play for mon
ey, but I'll tell you what 1 will dol
will play IL game, the loser 1 o treat the
house.
"One day MI old farmer entered the
place, and after wandering about look
ing at the pictures on the walls and eN-
aminiMsy the tables he asked if there
was any one present who would like to
play him Il game of billiards. Schaefcr,
as usual, said that he would pluy the
stranger.
"'Iiow much shall We play for:?' ask
ed the farmer.
"'I never play for money replied
schaefcr, 'but L will play you for tho
drinks for the house,
"'All right, said the farmer. How
many points shall we piay?:
"sOh, replied Schaefcr dcmurely in
all the consciousness of his superior
powers, we'll just play until you are
satisfied, and We will call that a game
1.-The crowd smiled as the players
prepared for the contest. The balls were
placed OH the table, and Schaefer
brought out his favoritc cue, and it fell
to his lot to open the game.
"The opening Slot in IL billiard game
is Il somewhat difficult one as most
players know, and Schaefcr, probably
through Indifference, missed it. He not
only missed it, hut left the balls close
together near one of the cushions. 1t
was what is termed III billiard p~arlance
a 'sat up
"Ilie old farmer carefully chalkcd
his cue, and after elaboration made the
shot. He then gaZed ut the balls Il mo-
ment. laid down his cue and exclaimed:
sci am satisfied
"Thc score was then / to 0 i'll favor
of the old farmer, but as Schaefer had
agreed to mako the game as long or
short as the farmer desired he had TO be
satisfied. Scl,aefer OF course had to in
wife all present, including his conqueror,
TO partalSe of the hospitality of tho
house. AS the crowd laughed and drank
Schuefer remarked that the al was
the shortest he had ever played, and
probably the shortest OH record. '-Ncw

going to blame them and claim that
they caused the defeat of the bill.
That would be worse than foolish.
The measure was never regarded for II
moment in IL partisan manner, and no
party can be justly accused of being
responsible for its defeat. Senator
Pettigrew. who is far from being a re-
publican. has always done grand work
for the bill, and it was that staunch
and able republican, Senator Allison,
who held the measure in the sunday
civil bill beforethe conference commit
tee up to the last hour of the last day.
and the sanitarium measure had strong
party men from all parties supporting
it enthusiastically allthc time. There
fore it is almost past belief that any
ono would be so stupid or unfair as to
lay the blame of the defeat of the san
itarium bill to the republican party.
The bill is not killed by any means.
but will come before congress when it
meets again and Hot Springs will then
want all the good friends that it has
had, and more. and we will want demo-

LOVED LIFE TOO WE'LL
Ancient Natcnez Indian Who Rebelled
Against Being Sacrificed.

One OF the repulsive features of the
laws under which the Natchez Indians
We're governed WAS that when Il MEN,
Der of the royal family of the nation
died it was necessary that several others
of the people should accompany him to
the tomb by suffering death at the
hands of e~Necutioners. When the
"great sum-" the hereditary chief of
the whole nation, died, all his wives,
i'll case he We're provided with more
than one and also several of his sub
iects. We're obliged to follow him into
the vale of shadows. The ''little suns
secondary chiefs, and also members Of
the royal family, likewise claimed,
when dying, their tribute of death from
the living. In addition to this, the in
eXorable law also condemned to death
any man of the Natchez race who had
married u girl of the royal line of the
''suns." On the occasion of her death
he Was called upon to accompany her.
81 will narrate to you upon this sub
ject," writes an old French chronicler
of Louisiana, ''the story of an Indian
who was not i'll q humor to submit to
this law. His name was Etteacteal. He
had contracted an alliance with the
suns The honor came near having q
fatal result for him. His wife fell sick,
and rs soo as he perceived that she
was approaching her end he took to
fight, embarking in a pirogue on the
Mississippi, and sought a refuge i'll New
Orleans. He placed himself under the
protection of the governor, who was at
that time NJ. de Bicnville, Offering him
self to be the governors hunter. The
governor accepted his services, and in
terested himself i'll his behalf with the
Natchcz, who declared, i'll answer, that
he had nothing to fear, inasmuch as the
ceremony was over, and as lie had not
been present when it took place he was
no longer available as Il candidate for
execution. New Orleans Picayune.

Governor Lee said the cowboy regi.
ment vas Il DISGRACE to the state. After
thinking about it over night he thought
best to make amends and then he said
it was a disgrace to call the soldiers
cowboys, as if Il cowboy, forsooth, were
not as good as any other man. The
governor is doing as poorly as the lit
tie boy who was invited out to dinner
and who WAS told by his mother to
praise things at the table. The meal
had just begun when a dainty bit of
butter was handed the boy. This, he
thought. offered him his chance.
Clearing his throat he remarked:
'sThis is very nice butter-what there
is of it," And then, thinking this did
not sound quite right and hoping to
make amends he added: And there's
plenty of it-such as it is."--Argus-

The defeat of the National Sanitar-

GREETED by the people of Hot Springs,
but IL 70 sane person blanes any politi-
cal party for its defeat-though some
such m%utterings have been belched
forth from irresponsible sources
against the republican, party. We will
not reply to the Herald bg quoting the
dispatches which were sent out from
Washington TO the effect that the sani-
tarium measure was lost because of the
fac, that the congressmen from South
Dakota we're not there when the meas
IRE was finally up for disposal. We
10 not think they could haze saved

all they could for it and are entitled
