Alas, that even pigs can, beneath
a rough, bristling coat and grimy ex-
terror carry within a little more of
brotherly affection and respect for

beautiful babe and a sweet faced nurse

wild storm of passion and wounded
pride and deluged with torrents of

Deacon jackson was very pious but
very determined old oolored citizen Of
Owl Creek valley. He had young
mule which his boys were unable to
ride, and their failure to break the ami

determined to ride it himself. He was,
however, no sooner located on its back
than he was thrown into an adjoining
lot, where he was picked up with both
legs broken and his neck badly sprained.
"What on earth did such an old man
as you mean by trying to ride wild
young mule like that?" asked the doctor.

declared to-day that ali the demorall-

Eastern connections.
There is no necessity for a meeting
according To the Canadian Pacific, and
IL declared particularly that il the
Western roads would change their tao
tics there would be no trouble over the
rates to Alaska. This view of the mat
ter does not strike the Western roads
favorably at all. and they claim that
there would he no decentralization in
passenger rates Ii il WAS not for the de-
mand for differentiais made by the Ca

meeting tomorrow just as though the

and the outcome will likely be the ap-
to Montreal and confer with General
