Long Lost Brother.

who ate raw meat and was bound IN
chains.
The wild man has been at his business
so long that he understands 1t quite
thoroughly, and now he thinks he ought
to have better wages. To the public ne
never says a word, but he talked some
good plain English to his employers the
other day. He intimated that he would
form wild mans union if necessary
to get higher wages. His employers
undertook to tell him who he was and
to remind him that he was in their pow
er, but he swore in all the oaths Pc
culiar to the wild mans vernacular, de-
claring that he would quit being wild
and become civilized before he would
continue to eat raw meat and wallow
around at the end of steel chains in a
hot pit for $1.50 day. 1t was finally
agreed that he could have 81 day, and
he went back down into the pit and is
now wilder than ever.
This particular wild man has broth
er who has for some time been wander
ing about in civilization, and roman
tic meeting occurred between the two.
They didn't fall on each others necks
and weep. The civilized brother paid
his dime to see the wild man, not
dreaming that he was to see his own
long-lost brother. After gazing into the
pit for few minutes, his eyes resting
on the raw meat and huge steel chains
rather than on the creature so securely
bound, he looked at the well-advertised
wild man. He started as If about to
scream. Then he caught the wild mans
eyes, and they recognized each other.
They both broke out In big ha ha! the
wild man laughing just like his civil
lied brother.
The management did not allow the
two to get together, but hurriedly eject
ed the civilized brother AS the wild
man had just received a raise of 80
cents day, he was satisfied to let his
brother continue to wander in the
walks of civilization.

AT THE FARMHOUSE.

November trees are brown and bare
And brief and chill November days,
But on the farm all are astIr
And cheerfully the mother says
THE day to all New England dear
Thanksgiving Day, will soon be here.
80, father, choose the turkey now
And | will make some pumpkin pies,
And we VIII have pudding nice
And II shall be OF largest Size;
Ihere are Walnuts In the garret
And there Is corn that pops like snow,
There are epples In the cellar
Which all the children love, | know.
And we Will have our sons come home,
our daughters and grandchildren, too,
Mary Ann and Jim End Joseph,
Maggie, Nellie and baby Prue."
SO father gets the turkey fine
And mother makes the pumpkin pies
And home Thanksgiving morning brings
Beloved ones Of every size.
The old house rings with their glad laugh
The fireplace CLOVIS with ruddy light,
And when at table all have met
That kitchen Is pleasant sight
The father offers sincere thangs,
The little ones impatient walt,
AND then the turkey plump he carves
And from the bounty Alls each plate.
Then grandma's plum-flled pudding comes
With mlnce and pumpkin pies galore,
While nuts aud apples, ralslns sweet,
And fun and feastlng crown the hour.
and here the poor remembered are
And not In kindly word alone,
With .well-flled hands the children speed
To nelghbors' homes where want is known
Tho nIaaaon NJ haure r,ost s,,lftt, a.,
The corn Is popped and stilled the fun,
And happy children rest In bed,
The glad November day Ia done.
But by the fire grandmother sits
And In her hand she holds curl,--
soft brown curl, that shone long since
Around the face Of her first girl
Dear child" she cries, forgotten never,
mothers love remembers ever"

A RURAL PEACEMAKER.
BY J. L. HARBOUR.
CO HEY did not pay much attention

CO HEY did not pay much attention
II to Thanksgiving In the country
- school district In which taught III
the West good many years ago. Christ
mas was the chief holiday Of the winter
and II was celebrated without any speeia
demonstration, for most OF the people
were poor and there was not much senti
ment in their general makeup. Old Han.
nah Dorton, wfth~&hom boarded, was
OF New England birth, and she had not
come to the West until some years after
her marriage. She was woman OF a
good deal Of force of character, and no
one In the neighborhood had a nimbler
tongue. One evening about two weeks
before Thanksgiving said to her:
"Do the people observe Thanksgiving
very generally In this neighborhood%
mo, they do not replied the old lady
with considerable emphasis. "And II has
always been good deal of trial to me
that so little attention was paid to a day
that we made SO much OF back there in
dear old New England. 1t was the great
est holiday Of the year to us, and how
we did enjoy itl''
why do they pay so little attention to
1t hereT
"Well, guess II Is just because they
have never got In the way of paying any
attention to It. They never celebrated
the Fourth OF July as 1t ought to be cele-
brated until my husband got them started
to doing 1t ten years before he died, and
now we have biz celebration every
year"
"Some one ought 10 start them to cele-
brating Thanksgiving"
$50 they ought. But who Is to do Il

Suppose we start them off in that d.
rection."

eager interest.

dinner in the school house. Invite all |
the folks In the district to come and bring
their dinner with them. There does not
seem to be any social life in the neigh
borhood unless one can call occasional
spelling matches and singing schools In
the school house social diversions. The
people never eat and drink together in
merry-making OF any kind. Don't YOU
think that the idea OF Thanksgiving
dinner in the school house would take?"
The old lady reflected for moment

One Man Killed and Many Per-
sons Injured by an Explosion.

Pittsburg, April 25.-One man was
blown almost to atoms. two men re-
ceived injuries which will probably
prove fatal and eight men and girl
received serious injuries by an explo-
sion of several cans of blasting powder
and dynamite at Larimer, Pa, last
night
Six of the injured were taken to the
Westmoreland hospital at Greensburg.
The others were removed to houses near
the scene of the explosion. The injured
at the Westmoreland hospital are:
John Mickolick, aged so, injuries ia
tai.
George stoncowick. aged q, injuries
may be fatal.
John Jol. aged 81, injuries serious.
Christina Stonckick, aged Is, injuries
not serious.
John Stoncowick, aged 10, injuries not
fatal.
Joseph stonecowick. aged 81, injuries
serious.
The disaster occurred in a large dou-
bic frame house which was almost
blown to pieces.
The conclusion of the explosion was
so great that all of the windows in the
surrounding dwellings were shattered.
1t is believed that the blasting powder
and dynamite which were stored in the
| double house by the miners and rail-
road laborers became ignited by the ex-
| plOSion of a lamp.

this campaign and that of SO is that
the matters of trusts and imperi5 ism
have been injected, and that the east
has become educated on the silver ques-
ton. The east no longer regards the
| Populists as anarchists, but has come

| Referring to the Boer war, he said:
