is such an interesting case that they
have been anxious to ascertain every
thing possible regarding his life. They
did learn that he was born in New
York and had always lived here.
As child he was fond of tea and
had been allowed to drink as much Of
it as he liked. He grew to like it more
and more. He drank it without milk
or sugar. When he was a young man
he was accustomed to drink six and
eight cups day. He finally required
twelve cups of strong tea a daY to
enable him to work. So the habit grew
until at the age of forty years thirty
cups a day was his minimum.

The salary was withheld on the
ground that the sheriff should have
turned over to the county money which
he received for feeding United States

Three pairs of feet rested comfortably on

down town; they belonged to the constab bic,
the deputy and the clerk. In chairs ada

happened once In a little Louisiana town
where | was born and raised
you know, the people down there never
used TO carry money, except change TO hire
the little darkies to run errands Every
body's credit was good, ana we all bought
and sold ON tick and settled up once a
year. when the cotton was marketed. Well,
there was a harness maker in town, with
some mighty fine saddles in his store. They
cost $500 apiece, the way prices were then.
One day the man noticed one of the saddles
was gone, and he didn't have any account
OF It. All the planters in the country dealt
with him, so he says to his bookkeeper.
Some Teller has bought $500 saddle, but
/ don't know who. You charge it on the
account Of each man. and when they come
to settle up they'll all kick but the right
one, and we can tell that way
Well the cotton bloomed and boiled and
rlpened, and went to the gin, and finally
the planters began paying their bills. One
by one they came into the harness store,
and the bookkeeper handed out the state
mentS, each one containing the item, 4 sad
ole' SzVO Wen sun; not one OF them plant
ers ever said a word. They paid their bills
in full, and the harness maker don't know
to this day who bought his saddle"
The deputy spit over his shoulder and
began prodding for an obstruction in his
pipe stem. Your speaking of cotton re-
minds me that l used to think when /
was boy in the mountains OF West Vir-
ginia that cotton grew on cottonwood trees.
/ found out differently, though, when we
came West, and my first experience with
cottonwood was much more wonderful than
if I had found cotton growing on the trees.
Father used to keep about a dozen sheep
out on our little place in the hills, but once
in Kansas he got 1t like everybody else and
had to have big flock. Like everybody
else in Kansas, too, he began before he was
ready. He bought LEGO sheep first, and then
a lot of barbed wire, and then a carload of
lumber for sheds. 1t was cottonwood lum-
Der. We piled ii up in the open field. where

every pile had tumbled over. and the boards
were so crooked we couldn't pile them
again Well sir. that day l watched those
cottonwood boards and / mighty near lost
my mind. They'd curl way up at the ends
or bow up in the middle. until The balanc-
ing point would change. and they'd roll over
and scare the sheep. The next day they
were worse, and the piles were gradually
scattering out, and the third day I had to
leave one dog with the sheep. and take the
other and herd those boards"

Another animal which. when in a state Of
nature. lives in droVes is the horse. 1t is al
most as defenselesS as the sheep and when
herd Of wild horses is attacked by wolves
there is no escape but in flight. In its wild
state the horses natural habitat is on the
open plains not iii mountainous regions, but
ON the steppes of Asia. and when attacked
Boy wolves its only safety lies in its superior
speed. If the young foal were not as swift
as its parents it would fall an easy prey TO
its pursuer. and so. within a few general iOnS.
the wild horse might be utterly destroyed
by its enemies The curious thing is that
the fOal is quite as swift as its parents.
When one looks at il, even in its dOmeS
ucated condition. it seems to be all legs. and
one is surprised to how easily the slight
body is borne along on those long legs beside
the mother. even when she is running at her
swiftest rate. In that fact lies the safety of
the wild horse from destruction, and the
thousands of generations in which that use
brought no change in the peculiar cOnforma-
ton of the fOaPs limbs. though ii is no
longer needed for its original purpose.
Another curious thing is that one of the
faults of the horse Of which we are apt to
complain, We mean the habit of Shying, is
survival of an old habit which was useful
and necessary when it's ancestors were still
roaming wild upon the plains. Then every
horse was constantly on the outlook for an
enemy, and ii did not look only with one

CHINA'S FUTURE.
Ere close let us for moment look at
the condition of China to-day, and forecast,
if we can, its future.
That great woman, the Empress dowager,
has with the free consent of the Emperor,
seized control of the empire. Once before,
after the death of Heinfung, she seized the
empire and she ruled it for thirty years
wisely and well. She is sixty-four years old.
The Chinese know and revere her. The men
who understand China best have faith in it's

Unless the powers have lost their senses,
they will not suffer China to be destroyed,
to be divided up, to be partitioned into hos
tile camps The Chinese are not patriotic in
the sense that we are, but they love their
country They are conservative. They are
learning the difficult problem of association
with foreign nations. They will learn it. as
japan has learned it, and then China will
start on the path of development and wealth,
and her progress will startle the world.
The newspapers announce that the
Empress will murder the Emperor. Perhaps
She NAV but not now. Much as she loves
the frail and weak being whom she raised
to the throne when he was two years old,
she loves China more. lhere is no necessity
for assassination. Even in China unneces-
sary political murder is not INDUCED in. AS
long as the Emperor lives the Empress
dowager will with his consent. rule over
China His death is not necessary to her
plans She will give China a strong gov

roads will strengthen the throne, and con-
soidate the vast disjointed empire. There
will be fewer riots. Life and property will
be more secure. Already China is the most

and vastly more so than Russia is. Already
