TAKEN BACK TO TEXAS.
Alleged Cattle Rustler Captured in Valley
County.

P. NJ. Price, charged with cattle rust
ling in Texas II years ago, was arrested
near Hinsdale, 25 miles west of Glas-
gov, and passed through Butte yes
sterday in charge of W. D. Smith, a
stock inspector of Miles City, on his
way back to Texas. 1t is said the
Texas authorities have been after Price
for II years, and only recently he was
located on ranch near Hinsdale. He
has also been suspected Of cattle rust
ling in Valley county, and it was after
the attention of the stock inspectors OF
the state was drawn to him that he
was identified as the man wanted in
Texas. The Texas authorities were no.
titled, and they asked that Price be
arrested and brought to that state.
John W. Collins of this city, Harry
Lund of Fort Benton and Mr.. Smith of
Miles City, all stock inspectors. made
a trip to Prices ranch and placed him
under arrest. Twelve hides of cattle

found on the place. The brands have
been cut out so that the identity of
the cattle could not be made.

Thanksgiving DaU.

The old fashioned religious harvest
home festival of this country has
never lost its hold upon the affections
Of wise, good people. 1t is plain
home festival, never characterized by
the ostentatious excess which has
sometimes threatened to bring Christ
mas into discredit. or the intemper-
ance which has finally caused New
Years Day to be almost forgotten as
a feast day
Thanksgiving Day is still the favor
lite home festival OF the year, and for
that reason its observance changes
little with the years Each family
celebrates it according to its wont,
reviying for the time old family tradi-
lions that belong to the day. II is a
season when long separated kinfo,k
come together, when rich and poor of
the same blood meet to give thanks
for the gifts of God during the year.
II is because it is a fsmily festival,
and because Of the democratic char.
aeler Of Thanksgiving Day, that it
has survived, TO be celebrated in
much the same spirit which character
lied the day at the beginning of the
century. Christmas Day has under
gone complete change in this time.
1t was impossible that the old Eng
fish feast lay of riot and mummery
should remain. 1t was replaced by
the German Christmas, with its tree
and gifts, and then was turned into a
home as we'll as church festival
soon after the the marriage of Queen
Victoria There can be no stronger
illustration of how completely the
Anglo Saxon race is bound together
than the universal acceptance in this
country OF this change in the celebra-
ton Of one Of the chief festivals Of the
year The Christmas tree is as uni
yersally associated to day with
Christmas as though it were a tradi-
tional observance, and not a fashion
which was introduced in the reign of
the present English Queen.
Thanksgiving Day, like the Fourth
of July, is purely an American festi-
val, and is shared by no other people.
Thanksgiving Day especially recalls
our Puritan fathers, whose principles
and endurance in time of trial every
American, from whatever race he has
sprung, is now proud to honor.
We have forgotten the old spirit of
bigotry in those early Colonial Assem-
bles which abolished Christmas and
substituted in its place the solemn
day of thanksgiving and prayer. We
remember only their nobility of char
acter and brave deeds. We have kept
both festivals Christmas without its
rioting and Thanksgiving without its
bigotry. Christmas was long ago re-
stored to its old place as the chief
among social and religious festivals.
Thanksgiving Day yearly declared
by solemn proclamation Of the Pres

We're about to sit down Dorothy said.
There's poor tramp. Aunt Polly,
looking in at the gate. l believe I'll go
and ask him in"
Now, Miss Polly had been the sworn
enemy of tramps all her life, and she
started up suddenly.

cried. Il can't endure tramps."

Dorothy, turning her brown eyes full
upon Miss Polly And we have a
Thanksgiving dinner. and he HASN'T
Then she went out, and they saw her
speak to the man and invite him in.
After all, they were glad of it. 1t was
too bad to think of any man going hun
CRY while that dinner awaited them,
and they cheerfully made room for
him at the table.
And such dinner! Why, if Miss
Polly had been IN training for it all her
life she could not have done better.
And there was baby at the table, a
thin faced baby in the arms of a thin
faced mother, and when it cast one
look over the table it absolutely laugh
ed, a funny little quavering laugh as
though II were not used to it. Then. in
a moment, everybody was laughing,
and there never was such a merry
crowd. Why, even poor old Mrs Day
was laughing like a schoolgirl and de-
claring that she liked any part of the
turkey, so there was enough of it.
AS for Miss Polly well, there was
absolutely no accounting for her. There
she was, carving away as though her
life depended on it, and flying here
and there around the table and re-
plenishing eyerybody's plate before 1t
was half empty. Her face was fairly
glowing with happiness.
And then al ut once the little old
gentleman in the shabby clothes stood
up and leaned his trembling hands on
the table. He wanted to express his
own happiness and that of all the
guests, he said, at the privilege of join
ing in this blessed Thanksgiving feast.
Some of them had been living hard
lives, very hard lives. Some of them
had feared, had even thought that
they were friendless and alone in the
world. lie thanked heaven for their
hostess, who had made her home that
day home for SO many others, and he
thanked heaven for the lovely young
girl who carried sunshine wherever
she went.
1t was not a very eloquent speech,
but the greatest after dinner orator
could not have won heartier applause.
Even the baby cheered because the
rest did. But Miss Polly was still Miss
Polly, and she could take no praise
that was not hers.
"Don't give me credit for any O. it,
she said stoutly. 1T was all Doro-
thy's doin's. I've been a cranky old
woman for good many years until

and his shaggy beard and stood there,
a tall, handsome young fellow. And
then the astounded company saw him
go around and take Miss Polly in his
arms.
Here l am, mother" he said as he
kissed her. And you are glad to see
Inc, after all?"
What a time it wasl He told them
after awhile how he had so longed for
glimpse of the old home that he had
determined to disguise himself and see
the house and his mother once more.
He had been in distant city all these
years and was in business there and
prospecting too.
And to think how near | came to
drivin him away from my gate at
last" cried Miss Polly, her voice shak-
ing at the very thought. And it was
Dorothy that saved me from that!
Oh, Dorothy, you have saved me from
so much! And you have done it just

the world to take up grabbed, sour

A Thanksgiving Story.

"Well, l don't s'pose anybody ever

The thing that nobody ever saw the
like of was a tear. 1t had rolled down
Miss Polly's wrinkled cheek and fallen
on her hand While she looked at it
curiously another tear slipped down
the other cheek and dropped beside its
fellow, where it glistened as her hand
trembled.
''Well, vowv' murmured Miss Polly,
In amaZement.
Words could go no further. When
Miss Polly "vowed" there was moth
ing more to be said. All this was be-
cause the physician had come in from
the other room and had said in his
genial way:
"She's ever so much better this morn
ing, Miss Polly. l think she'll pull
through"
That was how it happened that the
two tears were glittering on Miss Pol
ly's hand. They were very inconsist-
ent tears, and Miss Polly had always
been consistent. 1t was like turning
her whole life wrong side out, and she
realized 1t. In the first place, Miss

Or some newfangled article,

And different from the rest,
But the good old fashioned pumpkin pies
Are what love the best.

When came home from school, I'd get
A hunk, and In I'd wade.
And-p'r'haps my mouth is somewhat large
Though I'd resort to tears,
She wouldn't give me another piece
Because it mussed my ears.

To that old familiar spot,

On the butt'ry shelf arrayed

The kind that mother made.
