MY WELCOME.

In the lighted homes at evening, pressed
against the window glass
Are the little childish caces-I can see them
as 1 pass,
Little eager faces watching for father &
coming feet
Ready for a rush OF welcome when he en-
ters from the street;
And my heart grows sad with longing.
and my eyes with tears are wet,
Thinking of my own homecoming, and the
welcome others get.
Then / see the stars are shining-lights
from mansions far above.
Where my little ones await me, in the
home of perfect love;
And l think how they will greet me with
their smiles and kisses sweet.
When my day of life is ended and they
hear my coming feet,
Till my burden grows less heavy and my
heart forgets to grieve,
As / thing of that home going and the well
come I'll receive.

A RARE INSTANCE.
An Unusual Experience Which the
Bicycle Dealer Would Like
to Have Repeated.

A heavy man with square jaw walked
into a bicycle exchange the other after
noon: The proprietor advanced to wait
on him.
Gimme bike" said the square e,jawed
man.
ITO buy?"
"Yep."
"What make"
"Any old make"
Here's our specialty-good machine"
"All right, is it?"
Good as any made"
"How much!"
FIFTY"
Dab little graphite on the chain and
pump her up"
The proprietor dabbed little graphite on
the chain and pumped her up. The square
jawed man pulled out a wad of the size of
his wrist, skinned off a fifty and handed it to
the proprietor. Then he ran the machine
out to the curb, got on it and rode off.
When the proprietor got over being
stunned he went TO three or four friends on
the block to get their opinion as to whether
the $50 was counterfeit or the real thing.
The bill was genuine, and the proprietor has
been more or less dazed ever since.
Il can't understand such swift action as
that in the bike business" he says, with a
puzzled air-W ashington Post.

OZARK AGRICULTURE.
How Farmers Practice Rotation Of
Crops in That Prolific
Region.

Ozark humor appreciates the story that
scientist was quite amazed the other day at
observing a farmer, after killing a nest of
snakes turned up by the plow, arrange the
dead snakes in the furrow before he went
back to the plow.
"Why did you DO that, my good man"
the scientist asked.
The farmer looked curiously at the
scientist. and, seeing that he was really in
search of information, replied:
II do that SO the p!ow will cover ths
snakes on the next round"
Seeing that the scientist was still mysti-
fed, the farmer continued:
Il CO, er the snakes so that they will de-
compose: That is what you call it, ism it Z"
"l es?" said the scientist, with rising iu-
fiecticn.
Well" continued the farmer, "the de-
composition of animal matter furnishes
nourishment for plant life, believer"
"Yes?" again said the scientist.
"Then, snakes will make corn grow, won't
they? triumphantly asked the farmer.
Yes said the scientist.
And more corn will make more whisky,
wont it,? said the farmer.
Yes said the scientist
"And whisky will make more snakes,
won't it? Mister, that is what we call rota.

But once dived down into the quiet

only pulled myself together at the
door of the berth, where l took
thought that Mr.. Tym might notice
me. / entered and found him up and
already about to go on deck, and de-
ivered Mr.. Hopes message. He re-
piled: Every WE'LL" and after finding
that l was not for going back, passed
out, and heard him ascend the brass
shod stairs.

love, which / was bound to do, and tell

accordingly, running my eye about
under the dim, grease-smelling lamps,
but again finding the place empty,
and stole along to the senorita's door.
At my first light knock she opened
it. She was habited as she left the
deck, even to the mantilla. Her face
was pale, and her eyes seemed big and
bright, showing the strain of her
anxiety.

WITH KNIFE AND FORK
Lively Battle in the Kitchen of
the Palace Hotel.
TWO COOKS FALL OUT
And the Assistant Cook, Woman
Wounds the Chief Cook, Man,
With Sharp Fork-She
Is Arrested

lively knife and fork quarrel and
assault occurred yesterday afternoon
between the chief cook and the assist
ant cook at the Palace hotel, situated
at the corner of Cedar and Front
streets. William Chapman, the chief
cook, was attacked by his assistant,
Mary E. Griffith, who threw sharp
fork at him while they were quarreling
in the kitchen.
Chapman went to the police court and
mad a warrant drawn up for the Grit
fifth woman's arrest. Chief White
served the warrant. The trial of the
case took place last evening before
Judge J. NJ Kennedy.
Chapman was the first witness. He
testified that the trouble arose over
the fact that for the past several days
the woman had refused to do the work
that was assigned to her. On Thurs
day, the witness said she called him
vile names and drew a knife, but did
not strike him. Yesterday afternoon
she again called him vile names and
took up fork and threw it at him,
striking him on the side and causing a
severe wound. The witness further
testified that he had not assaulted the
defendant and had only called her vile
names. Witness said that the woman
often threatened to choke him and she
was desperate anu ludl is why he was
afraid of her.
James Steiner, who is employed in
the hotel, corroborated the evidence
given by Chapman. During the time
Steiner was testifying Chapman per-
sisted in trying to remind the witness
of certain things. Judge Kennedy
warned him several times against this
and he was at last forced to tell the
man that he would have to put him in
the cellar for awhile if he did not stop.
Mary Griffith said that she had no
statement to make to the court and
she refused to be sworn. She was in
formed by the judge that she could, if
she wished to do so, make a statement
not under oath. This she did, saying
that she had thrown the fork at Chap
man in self-defense, as he was coming
at her with a large knife in his hand
and was about to strike and kill her
with it. telling her that she would have
to get out of the kitchen.
Judge Kennedy, after hearing the
evidence, said that it was very unfor-
tunate to see that people who had 10
work hard for their living could not
get along together.
Much better feeling should exist be-
tween the people, said the judge and
l hope that you both will get along
better in the future"
Mary Griffin was found guilty of as
sault in the third degree and sentence
was suspended.

Doc" Emerson, who pitched for the
court house nine, got into dispute in
the last inning with Fred Inman on a
technical point and became ratified
Perhaps that was the reason of the de-
feat, because at the beginning of the
last inning the score was even. Then
the court house was shut out in it's
half and the postoffice landed its two
winning runs.
Messrs. Maiden and Kilroy were the
umpires. They were both impartial
and distributed bad decisions equally.
Under Sheriff David Morgan had the
honor of batting the only safe hit ac-
corded to his side. He also distin-
guished himself by pulling down high
fly out in center field and making a
circus one-hand catch that would have
set league crowd of fans crazy.
No one was hurt in the game barring
the fire Johnston acquired and the soak
Vincent McMullen of the postoffice
team secured in the hinder portion of
his anatomy. The game was played on
the Anaconda Lake park grounds. The
only spectators were a crowd of colOred
men who wanted the grounds. but
found them occupied The colored men
enjoyed themselves making remarks
The teams lined up as follows,
Court House-Emerson. pitcher: Cud-
dihy, catcher: Mcdonald. first base:
Healey, second base; Martin. third
ter field; Casey, left field Johnston,
right field.
Postoffice-F. Inman. pitcher; M. 7.
