The Bull and the Red wagon.

Two friends of his set out to find GER
tain trout stream in a wild region twenty
miles from San Francisco says Forest and
Stream.
Riddle had imported from Boston a light
express wagon, with the gear painted
bright red. part of the route led them
across a pasturage for wild cattle, and
their first intimation of mischief was the
bearing down upon them of the whole
herd, headed by bull, paving the ground
and believing.
Ward" said Riddle that fellow means
mischief. We must run for it,"
The men whipped up the horse and tried
to escape, but it was useless down came
the drove. The bull charged the wagon,
capsized 1t, and threw the men and their
belongings to the ground Then, for pro-
lection, they crawied under the vehicle
and the bull battered away at the wheels.
1t happened that Riddles gun had landed
within reach He crawled from under the
wagon, slipped in two cartridges and the
bull at his next charge, was amazed at
receiving a couple of charges of shot in
the face. The drove stampeded at the re-
port and the BUN followed, shaking his
head, evidently in great surprise at the
tendency of red wagons to go out in that
disagreeable manner.
The two fishermen returned to town, one
with mis- arm in a sling and the other very
much battered about the face. The was-
on was immediately painted sober green.

Not Worth Fighting for.

It's the canny old bird that cannot be
caught with the bird lime of litigation,
says the Lewiston Journal
You've probably heard of Lawyer Hack
EFT of Somerset. A little while ago he
purchased some land over which there
had been a lawsuit for years until the
parties had spent half a dozen times what
The land was worth Hackett knew all
about it, Some OF the people wondered
why ne wanted to get hold of property
with such an incubus of uncertainty OH
1t. Others thought that perhaps he want
ed some legal knitting work, and would
pitch in red-hot to fight that line fence
question on his own hook.
That's what the owner of the adjoining
land thought So he braced himself for
trouble when ne saw Hackett coming
across the fields one day
Said Hackett Whats your claim here,
anyway as to this fence?"
Il insisted" replied the neighbor that
your fence is over on my land two feet
at one end and one foot at least at the
other end"
We'll" replied Hackett. you go ahead
just as quick as you can and set your
fence over. Al the end where you say
that l encroach on you two feet set the
fence onto my land four feet. At the
other end push it onto my land two feet"
But" persisted the neighbor, that's
twice what 1 claim
Il don't care about that" said Hackett.
There's been fight enough over this land
I want you 10 take enough so you are
perfectly satisfied you have got your
rights, and then we can get along all
pleasantly Go ahead and help yourself"
The man paused, sbashed. He had been
ready to commence the old struggle tooth
and nail. But this move of the new neigh
Dor stunned him. Yet he wasn't to be
outdone in generosity. He looked at Hack
EFT.
Squire" said he, that fence amt 60
ing to be moved an inch. | don't want
the blamed old land. There warn't nothin'
to the fight but the principle of the thing"

A queer story is being told about that
Colorado gold statue which is to typify
that state at the Paris exposition of next
year. The understanding was that it
would be Of pure. solid gold, and would
be altogether a Colorado production. The
announcement is now made, however. that
it will be constructed in New York of a
base metal and veneered with gold. and
that Miss Maude Adams, who is not a
Colorado woman. will be the model Thus
about all that Colorado will have to do
with the statue will be TO furnish the We
neer and pay for the work. The Denver
newspapers are exceedingly wrOth re-
specting the matter

In CoIorado woman notary publle Mo

In Colorado woman notary public who
had got married asked the attorney gen
eral what name she should sign officially,
whether her maiden name or the name
Of her husband. He replied that there
was no warrant ia law for woman to
change her name upon marriage, or at
any other time, and that therefore she
should continue to sign her maiden name
1t is obvious, however that this rule
could not be adopted by married women
generally without causing a great deal of
embarra ssment

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Times Dem) says: I'VE
have waited patiently for the yellow press
of London to retract the story that Sen
ator Hanna, after listening to a debate
in the House. asked How much will a
vote on this bill be worth? Senator Han
ma has his own views of the methods
that are justifabe in politics. They are
not our views and some of them appear
TO be such as no American citizen can
maintain with decency. But he is not
fool. He is no more capable of making
such a remark about a piece of English
legislation, unless in obvious pleasantly
than he is capable of arranging in public
for the delivery of Southern delegates at
a national convention. In these days of
Anglo-American amity we do not like to
see the common sense of one of our emil
nent citizens so fail of appreciation. The
yellow journals of the metropolis have
been misled."
The Memphis Commercial-Appea Dem)
says: IF Vermont gave the country
Dewey Maryland gave it a schley. Be
fore Santiago Roosevelt of New York and
Wheeler of Alabama fought side by side.
The first shot fired came from a boat
commanded by a Southerner The first
officer killed was a North Carolinian. II
was a Southerner who performed the most
glorious and reckless piece of folly
throughout the war, the sinking of the
Merrimac. These things have knit North
and South together; and so to-day we cell
citrate the most gloriously Glorious Fourth
in our history"
The Philadelphia Ledger Qnd) says:
within the past week we have been
told by alleged authorities on one hand.
that the Democratic party cannot make
a strong campaign on an antitrust plat
form, because the Republican party is
going to fight the trusts, too, and that
the Democratic party will make such a
platform and will carry the country on it
because the antitrust sentiment is very
strong in the West and South There are
arguments in support of both assertions.
