Lick Of their coming He determined to
teach them a lesson He with his son Sam
intrenched themselves behind some rocks,
within easy range Of his house. and awaited
their coming.
They soon came, and approached the
house from the road in front of the house
and inquired of Mrs. Todd, who stood in the
door. if Mr.. Todd was at home She re.
piled: Get out of here, men, if you wish tC
see home again" They, with much laugh.
ter, said they were not much afraid. Mr.
Todd. rising from behind the rocks, said in
Todd, here he isl" Several of the guards
fired in the direction of the voice, then all
was still for while only, and then sharp
crack from the rocks and the front guard
fell from his horse-they were all mounted
shot dead through the heart.
Then another volley from the guard
then shot from the rocks, and another sol
dier tumbled from his saddle That shot
was from Sam; and Sam would have goi
him but for him lodging behind the gate
post.
The guards were now totally demoralized
and took cover in a hurry. Mrs. Todd then
told them to take their killed and wounded
and get out of the Lick, if they wanted tc
live. The guard took the hint, and, un.
molested, they retired, carrying the dead
and wounded, and reported to Capt. Avis
that they were overwhelmed by Uncle
% v.
goons from Pendleton County.
L read this statement in the Stauntor
papers, which was entirely false as to the
Swamp Dragons. Capt. Avis and the
papers raved, and declared that Uncle
Jimmy would be driven ort and his house
destroyed; and Uncle Jimmy sent Them a
message that if it was attempted, he would
take such a revenge as would even make
"Lucifer's angels shudder."
The grand old hunter was never after
wards disturbed during the war, which was
strange indeed. The fact was that Uncle
Jimmy was strongly intrenched, of un.
fiinching courage, as also was Sam, and
was known by all men as a dead shot" il
there ever was one. In fact, it was under.
stood that if he aimed at a man, his enemy
the man was as good as dead and buried
and his bones gone to dust; hence no one
"hankered" for scrimmage with him.

Ihe Red Cross Makes an Earnest Appeal for coaribrtIoas

The American National Red Cross de.
sires to call the attention of the people to
the terrible condition of,the orphan children
of the dead reconcentradoS of Cuba.
The Red Cross has already done much
to alleviate this distress, and now desires to
conclude its work, but finds what has
already been generously contributed iS
insufficient to meet the demand. or, in
other words. to reclaim these homeless
waits from life not unlike animals.
More money is urgently needed. Con-
tributions may be sent to the North Ameri-

The Holly chieftain., 1899-11-03

The first thing done toward building
the great dam across the Nile at As
suan has been the erection and equip
ment of extensive hospitals and dis
pensaries, for caring for the health of
the army OF laborers. A generation or
two ago such thing was unheard of,
while in ancient times the disregard OF
human life was such that the bones OF
those who perished from disease or
fatigue in building the pyramids would
have made greater heaps than the py-
ramids themselves. There are no.
many more impressive measures of the
progress made by modern civilization
than such care for the welfare OF hu-
man lives.

The talk of complicated mechanism

the old days-the time OF mast and

valuable on waEship, aside from his
fighting qualities, was the man who
could go up a rope and trim a sail.

General Butler Arrive. =. Cape Town.

London, Oct. 31.-A dispatch from
Cape Town announces the arrival in
Table bay Of the Dunottar Castle late
last evening, with General Redvers
Butler and his staff, who are expected
to land this morning. They will meet
with tremendous ovation In Cape
Town.
1t is reported from Pretoria that 200
of the British wounded from Dundee
have arrived there and have been fur

According to Colonel Wright's stud
les OF the census, the rich are grow
ing richer; many more people than
formerly are growing rich; and
the poor are growing better
on. Statistics prove that while
the proportion of persons engaged in
unskillsd and poorly paid labor re-
mains nearly stationary, the proper
tion employed in skilled and semi-pro-
fessional pursuits, which bring higher
wages. steadily advances. He illus
trates from Boston the improved dis
tribution of wealth. In that city the
rich men of 1924 were relatively richer
than now. Then nine large taxpayers
owned eight per cent of the property
now the nine largest own less than
four per cent. In 1S45 the three hun
dred and thirty-three richest men own
ed a larger proportion than twelve
hundred of the richest citizens of to-
day. This is good as far as it goes,
and we can stand some more of it.

Harvard, Yale and other universities
have long-standing feuds with the
townspeople at their doors. The doubt
full feelings with which these antagon-
lists regard each other eliminate now
and then in what are known as town
and gown" riots. During certain an
nual rites held the other day by Har-
ward students to celebrate rowing and
baseball victories the roughs of Cam
bridge attacked the students with
stones and knocked one OF their num-
ber insensible. When the Harvard
men went after their foes the latter
fled ignominiously. and the promptness
OF the police alone prevented a serious
riot. With tradition to back him up
and the fierce fighting tyrannical blood
to urge him on. the student. as years
pass by does not seem inclined to fore
go the physical pleasure Of exercising
his fists on his natural enemy, the
town "hoodlum." 1t seems pity that
learning, notwithstanding the old say
ing does not soften the warlike feel
ings OF the natural man when in the
presence of his foe. The recent war
experiences are likely to perpetuate
human savagery for many years to
