Girl Lassoes a Lion.

Recently, Norma Diorn, young
woman of Marble Falls, Texas,
lassoed a full grown mountain
lion, which she ran onto while
riding around her fathers ranch,
and dragged him home. It was a
daring feat and one that many an
old scar worn hunter would not
have had the heart to have tried.
She has been presented with a
gold mounted revolver and the
finest side saddle that could be
found in the Mexican Capital by
the Cattle Association for the
daring deed.

Paderewski's Piano Playing.
lgnace J. Paderewski, the noted
Polish pianist, has made four
tours through this country and, it
is conservatively estimated that he
has taken round million dollars
OF American money away with him
to his home. His recent tour of
this country netted him in round
numbers 100000. The gross
earnings were $26O,OOO. He is
now in London and is resting for
the most part from active play
ings, although he occasionally
plays at a concert, for which he
gets $50 per minute. He played
two selections at a private concert
at the home of William Waldorf
Astor, for which he received as
compensation $4,000. He is a
hard worker and practices on his
piano from four to five hours
daily. He has been twice married

before midnight Sherman had
promised to withdraw his name.
"He did SO by telegraph that
night. | then telegraphed to all
OF Garfield's friends and sent word
to the Ohio delegation that on the
third or fourth ballot on Monday
morning they should vote for Gar

voted for him. The remainder is
history. Wisconsin followed the
plan | had made; so did Indiana.
When Ohio cast it's vote for Gar

with rush.
I'm the summer [ was called to
Russia on business, and on my
way back to this country stopped
IN Paris for a few days. There ]
met the late Senator Morrill,. He
told me that Hancock would beat
Garfield sure; that he saw no way
of preventing the defeat of the
Republicans. He said that he had
received news that Maine had
just gone Democratic in the Sep
tember election for the first time
in many years, and that every
thing was in confusion. I hasten
ed back to the United States as
quickly as possible and went to
Garfeld's home in Mentor. [ told
him that he must at once put
stop to the bloody shirt campaign
which was waging and that he
must send for Conkling, Blaine
and others and endeavor to have
them fall heartily in line with the
party. He did so, and from late in
September until November the
Republicans made the shortest and
most victorious campaign ever
known to any party"

A social war has broken out in
Washington society between Mrs.
Secretary John Hay and Mrs.
David Jayne Hill, whose husband
is the First Assistant Secretary.
The two leading society ladies do
not even exchange courtesies, and
they have managed to enlist many
of the leading society women Of
the city on one side or the other.
The origin Of the society war; is
that Mr.. d. j. Hill is aspiring to
be secretary of state in case Presi-
dent Mckinley is reelected.
Most people, who read of this
peculiar war, are much inclined to
think both Mrs. Hay and likewise

Oregon Republican Still.

Last Tuesday mornings Asso-
ciate Press dispatches brought
glad tidings to the hearts of all
Republicans, for it announced the
fact that the first gun in the pres
ent presidential campaign had
been fired, and Oregon was still in
the Republican column of the
land. The state of Oregon, which
held its regular bienial election
last Monday, has been singularly
successful this year in the election
OF its Republican nominees. The
state Legislature, which elects a
United States senator, is Republi-
can by a good working majority.
Both Republican congressman
were overwhelmingly reelected.
Truly is this Republican year.

If reports be true Wharton
Barker is no novice at politics, in
other words, vulgarly speaking, he
knows his business. He has been
nominated for the vice presidency
on the Middle-of-the-road Popu-
list ticket and he says he is going
to get a million and half votes.
He figured one time in Republican
politics as may be seen from the
following report Of which Barker
himself quite approves of:
Wharton Barker of Pennsyl-
vania, the Presidential candidate
of the middle-of-the-road Popu-
lists, claims to have been the
organizer of the campaign which
made General Garfield the Repub-
lican candidate for president in
1880, and he says that the cam
paign began in 1879, year before
the convention, and that Garfield
was a party to the movement from
the beginning, Notwithstanding
his position in the convention as
the manager Of Senator John
Sherman's campaign. Mr.. Bark
er's account of Garfeld's nomina-
ton, which he asserts is the true
history Of that remarkable conven-
tion and nomination, is given in
the following interview
afternoon, and it is as follows:
II began work in the fall Of
1879 on my plan to have General
Garfield nominated by the Repub-
licans at Chicago in $780," he said.
81 saw that the fight was going to
be terrible and fruitless one
between the forces of General
Grant and the late James e.
Blaine, and that the convention
would be overrun with favorite
sons from different states. Thus
anticipating a deadlock, I believed
that dark horse could win, and I
communicated my belief to Gen
eral Garfield. He thanked me for
my interest and readily agreed to
whatever plan could put into
operation for his benefit. [ COM
municated with many men through
out the country and found con-
siderable sympathy with my pro-
ject. In the spring Of 1880 the
fight between the forces of Grant
and Blaine had grown still more
bitter, and everything had worked
smoothly toward the selection of
Gen6fal GafnolQ.
among those quietly in favor
of General Garfield at that time
was President Hayes himself. I
have two letters from him showing
this. l soon ascertained that
there would be break in the
Pennsylvania delegation; that it
would not regard as binding the
unit rule instructions secured from
the Pennsylvania state convention
by Senator Cameron, and at the
proper time there would also be a
break in the New York delegation.
zone thing that bothered me a
great deal was how to get the
name Of General Garfield before
the convention. Among the dele
gates to the convention, however,
we're a banker named Greer. one
of my correspondents in Pennsyl-
vania, and Caleb Taylor. at that
time Representative from Penn
sylvania. Greer agreed to quietly
vote for Garfield on every ballot
from the first one he cast, and
Taylor to spasmodically vote for
Garfield. This gives the history
of the one vote, and at times two
votes, received by General Gar
field.
