A Boys Dewey Souvenir.

Souvenirs Of Dewey are to be had on
every hand, If not for the mere asking,
at least for the paying. But they are
cold hearted souvenirs that have no In.
innate connection with the life of the
great Admiral. If one might get as a
memento something that had been his
own, that would be different matter.
A certain small boy has keen appre-
citation of that fact. He feels that he
has been more highly favored than the
average mortal, for has he not even
penetrated the sacred precincts of the
Olympia, and met the hero of Manila
face to faceP He was taken aboard
ship by his father. After his return
home the family observed that the lit.
tie fellow was going about carrying his
hand carefully bound up in a hand
kerchief. Have you hurt your handT
they asked.
Hurt my hand? Nor in disgust.
Then in great dignity, THAT is the hand
that Dewey shook."-New York Even

Trees Of Enormous Size.

The largest tree in the world is to be
seen at Mascali, near the foot of Mount
Etna, and is called ''the chestnut tree
of a hundred horses" Its name rose
from the report that QueenJane of Ara
gon, with her principal nobility, took
refuge from a violent storm under its
branches. The trunk is 204 feet In cir
conference. The largest tree in the
United States, it is said, stands near
Bear Creek, on the north fork of the
Tule River, in California. 1t measures
40 feet in circumference. The giant
redwood tree in Nevada is 119 feet In
circumference.

60 ON half-fare; and then there is the
trip in the wagon afterwards. It's
great pity to give it up, but think we'll
have to-"
Mother" said VIII, Suppose you
were to find enough money for the trip;
suppose somebody that you never ex-
pected to pay us should pay"
And then in fash Will had the money
out, and there was another shout, louder
than when the letter came; and what
did Mrs. Darlington do but cry, and then
laugh as merrily as the children did. For
it really did begin to look like Thanksg:y-
ing.
That night she wrote letter thanking
Mr.. and Mrs. Fenner, saying that they
would all be there on the morning of
Thanksgiving day.
The day came at last, and they got off,
but it was raining, and they wondered
why 1t should rain just as they were go
ing to have Thanksgiving. At Howard
they got out of the cars and ran into the
station; and then they looked out of the
windows and saw little rivers running
down all the streets of the town.
said Mrs. Darlington to the children.
Wen try to find a covered wagon and
then we can go on, in spite of the rain"
A small boy, who was lounging about
the station, was sent in search of wag-
on, and presently returned with one.
"Of course l knows where old man
Fenner lives" said the driver. "Ill take
you out there fur So, that is eff We can
get there, but it'd be my advice to stay
in town till it quits rainin'."
"Oh, we must go on" cried Mrs. OAR
lington. So the wagon was driven up
under the shelter of the projecting roof
and they climbed in.
"He says we'll be there by half-past
TO-" whispered Frank. "Ill bet the tur-
keys cookin' now; and maybe there'll
be nuts-and raisins-and buttermilk."
The wheels went splashing through
the mud, and as they went farther along
the road it seemed to Mrs. Darlington
that the difficulties increased. There
were more streams and they were deeper
and angrier.
"Gittin' pretty bad, amt it?" said the
Cottonwood report. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1893-1901, 1899-12-08

driver with a grin. But that amt the
worst of it. It's my opinion we won't git
to old man Fenner's to-day"
Mrs. Darlington's heart grew faint
within her. She had so little money that
she could not afford to spend any of it
for lodging.
The driver was right, for after awhile
they reached stream that was away out
of its banks, and that roared and boiled
in the most threatening way. 1t was use
less to think of going farther.
well, which'H you dor" said the
driver, idly Ticking his whip. "Shall l
take We back to town to stay all night, or
shall l see the old man that owns this
place an git permission for you to camp
in that cabin there till the creek runs
DOWN."
No, they would not go back; so the
driver went up to the farm, house and
soon came back with word that they
were welcome to the use of the cabin
Five minutes afterwards they. stood in
the cabin door and watched the wagon
out of sight around the bend; for the
driver had declined to wait. He had
done his part, ne said; it was not his
fault that the streams could not be
forded.
What shall we do?" exclaimed the
mother, sinking down upon an old bench
What an end to all our prospects or
pleasure! What Thanksgivingw And
the children began to cry.
you just wait till build a fire." Will
called out cheerily; and in little while
he had roaring fire started in the wide
fireplace. Some dry boards and sticks
of wood that he found under the house
furnished sufficient fuel, and they all
drew near to the pleasant blaze.
Then, while they were busy getting
warm, Will surreptitiously counted the
small store of coins in his pocket; little
saving boarded through many weeks, and
now brought from home to spend on this
wonderful Thanksgiving.
Mother" he said suddenly, twill you
lend me your umbrella a little while.
I'm not going far" The mother asked
no questions.
The gruff old farmer was sitting be-
side his own fire, when there came a
gentle knock at the door; and in response
to his surly "Come in," the door opened.
A curly haired lad was there, lowering
a dripping umbrella, which he was care
full to leave outside.
IF you please, SIR" he said. 81 belong

to the family that you loaned the house
to, down by the road; and we're very
much obliged to you.'
"Humph" calculated the old man.
First one that ever thought to say SO,
and I've loaned the house a good many
times"
And IL you please, SIR" went on the
little man in the door, Il came to see IL
you could sell me turkey for Thanks
giving"
my graciousw exclaimed the old man
with his eyes wide open.
Yes, sir. You see, we were going to
Mr.. Fenner's to spend Thanksgiving. and
1t would have been the first Thanksgiv-
Ing we've ever had; and 1t rained 90 that

There are STRIKES On Id nearly every
large city i'll THE 6ol<ntry and nearly All
trades are alTected.
The Western Federation OF Miners
will begin the publication of monthly
magazine on the first OF January.
The granite cutters all ever the coun.
try will come out in demand for an
eight-hour day on the first of January.
One hundred and fifty-five bakeshops
in New York City have adopted the ten
hour work day and union rules OF the
bakers.
The union cigarmakers Of Tampa,
Fla, have enforced demand that cigar
factories be scrubbed and cleaned once
month.
s. T. & L. A. Bakers Union, of New
York, seeded and went back to the
national. 1t is thought the same thing
will happen in Boston soon.
Utica has large organization of Ia
borers, they having been organized
about seven months. They are in good
condition both financially and numer-
ically.
Laborers are among the slowest to
organize. There is. however, in Lock
port, N. Y, Laborers' Protective
Union with 203 members. Marion, Ind,

First-class passengers in England
have increased only 10 per cent in ten
years, while the number of the third

New York wants museum of "Liv-

to cost several millions, exhibiting con-
temporaneous art and manufacture
from every country in the world.-Chi-

A Terre Haute dispatch says Debs
arrived home from his western lecture
tour and che finds that the demand is
such that he has no doubt that gen.
eral union of railway employees is sure
to be effected sooner or later" So the
A. r. U. may be resurrected.
The Stonecutters' Union of st. Louis
has won the day against machine-cut
stones. By the terms of an agreement
duly signed, all the yards will discon-
tinue the use of machine saws and
planners on and after November 5, and
hereafter all mouldings and other
forms of stonework where cutting is
necessary, will be produced by hand.
This agreement will give employment
to men who have been idle much of the
time, besides putting stop to per-
nicious system that was tending to de-
stroy the stonecutters' organization.
