the swarm of gnats and flies or doing
through the heated hours of the day
Out on the level fiat beyond the cor
raj the troopers had GasaLdled, and
the chargers, many of them stopping
to roll in equine ecstasy upon the turf,
were being driven out in one big herd
to Craze. Without and within the
ranch everything seemed to speak of
peace and security. The master rode
the range long miles away in search
OIL straying cattle, leaving his loved
ones without thought of danger. The
solemn treaty that bound the Sioux
to keep to the north of the Platte
stood sole sentinel over his vine and
fig tree. True there had been one or
two instances of depreciation, but
they could be fastened on no particu-
lar band, and all the chiefs, even def
ant Red Cloud and insolent, swag-
gering Little Big Man, denied all
knowledge of the perpetrators. Spot
ted Tan, it was known would severe
ly punish any of his people who trans
gressed, but he could do nothing with
the Ogallallas. Now they were not
200 miles away to the north, their
ranks swollen by accessions from all
the disaffected villages and turbulent
young braves of the swarming bands
along the Missouri and Yellowstone,
and if their demands were resisted by
the government, or worse, if they
were permitted to have breech-loaders
or magazine rifles, then just coming
into use, no shadow of doubt remained
that war to the knife would follow.
Then how long would it be before they
came charging down across the Platte,
east or west of Frayne, and raiding
those new ranches in the Laramie
valley?

A LonE-Range Duel.

Gen Botha, the famous Boer COM
mander, once fought something like
a duel with Wools Sampson, who will
be remembered as reform prisoner,
During the Boer war of 1881 Mr..
Sampson, on the British side, and Bo-
tina, on the Dutch, during an outpost
skirmishs potted. at one another from
behinu stones. Sampson thought he
hit Botha, and raised his head above
the stone, only to find himself hit in
the neck. That was one to Botha.
who jumped up elated. Sampson at
once dropped him. Got him!" said
Sampson, and raised himself to look.
Got him" said Botha, as he put a
bullet into his adversary's side; but
he showed himself too soon, for Sans
son brought the score to evens. In
later years they yarned about this oc-
ourrenee over drinks in johannesburg.

the major step inside? Step inside, and
stand wonderingly at the threshold of
the pretty parlor, he did; and then
there was a rustic of silken skirts on
the floor above, and as he turned to
listen his haggard, careworn face took
on look something like that which
overspread it the night he got the let
ter at Reno-something that told of be-
wilderment and perplexity, as a quiet,
modulated voice told the servant to tell
the gentleman Mr.. Folsom might not
return for several days. Burleigh had
no excuse to linger, none to ask TO hear
that voice again; yet as he slowly de-
scended the steps its accents were still
strangely ringing in his ears. Where
on earth had he heard that voice be-
fore?

Slips of the Tongue,

1t is an invariable rule that mem
bers of the house of commons must
address their remarks to the house
through the chair, and, though in the
flow of argument an orator is often al
lowed, without remonstrance, to use
the second personal plural in admon-
ishing his opponents, the first words
are always addressed to the occupant
of the cnair, This, like many other
rules of debate, has percolated from
the house of commons down to all our
minor assemblies, and the consequence
is that few members find any difficult
ty in complying with the custom.
Not infrequently, however, ruling hab-
it's prevail, and new member invol-
unfairly discloses the nature of the
assembly to which he has Deen accus-

bill in 1894, Mr.. Kenny, an Irish Q. c.,

An EpitnDh That Failed.

A Louisville wit goes to church, or
did go to church, where a prominent
member of the congregation who had
pew close by used to slumber through
the entire service. When the text was
given out he nodded, and by the time
the pastor got good start he was OBJ
livious of everything until the pastor
woke him up. After awhile the man
died, and one day shortly afterward
one of the friends of the family came
to the wit and said: "See here, old boy,
| don't pretend to be smart and up-to-
date like you, but Blanks wife has sent
for me and asked me to arrange about
the inscription on her husbands mon
ument. She wants something short
and appropriate, and over this she is
going to have his name and the date Of
his birth and death. I'm the last per-
son in the world to undertake such a
job, so l thought you might help me
out" why, with pleasure" said the
joker, and his grin should have warned
the caller, but it didn't. Taking out
pencil and notebook, the fiend wrote
line or two and handed it over "See
how you like it," he said, and as the ap-
licant read the lines they ran as fol-
lows: George Blank, born, died

why, for the past twenty-five years,
thousands of women have been con-

the United States.

one of the children. Lease said to her:
PUT it down. 1t doesn't belong to

Relating the circumstance to a Topeka
friend lately Mrs. Lease said: II put
the umbrella down and left the store

of the struggle for bread which l had

Mrs. Lease began to direct the at.

she delivered the labor speech. She
has been making good money ever
since. She has educated her children

Mr.. Lease has known for long time
that his wife would sue for divorce
for she told him two years ago that
she would not live with him again.
She lately told a Topeka friend that
she had no inten ton of remarrying
and gave as reason for obtaining a
divorce that by her own efforts she
had made herself Independent and did
not care TO be hampered further by a
husband.

Now the storm, It's fury DER.
Eain would lull the waves to rest.
Loudly beating on the shore.
As a wild bird beats its breast;
Through a hedge of rugged clouds.
Gropes the moon her lonely way:
'Twixt the thlcket peering far,
Here and there a little star
Wheresoe'er perplexity
Felt the touch of sympathy.
Sentinels, in black and gray,
Dark the distant mountains loom.
Trees their leafless branches sway,
Grim guardians of the gloom;
Eush. the while, within their arms,
ANY night-belated bird,
To whose twitter of content
Winds are moaning sad assent.
In all earth's perplexity,
Things of earth give sympathy!
In the hush of silent grief.
Angels bend their heads to hear:
In the hour of unbelief.
God is drawing very near.
And, by passion, tempest-toss'd.
He was tempted like as we."
Deep in our Gethsemane-
Suffering on our Calvary
In all mans preplexity,
God and Heaven give sympathy!

proved a practical success was pro-
duced by the two stephensons, and
was called the Rocket. In October,
1929, it received the prize offered by
the directors of the Liverpool &C. Man,
chester railroad, and the question as
to the superiority of the locomotive
steam engine as a motive power was
then settled.-Detroit Free Press.

He Nearly tainted.

Well, it was caution how mad Sena
tor VIM. M. Stewart was when he ar
rived at the Brunswick at the noon hour
to meet him. He was not slow in ex-
pressing himself about the evident dis
courtesy. He ate his lunch with Mrs.
Stewart and when he came out from the
dining room the expression OF his face,
which was not pleasant because Of the
coldness of his reception, had not worn
away even then.
After he strolled around the hotel ro-
tunda for a while in came T. G. Hick-
man, of the reception committee, and
when told that Senator Stewart was
there and that not one OF the reception
committee had been at the depot to meet
him, he nearly tainted.
Hurrisdly rushing across the street to
Judge Caswell or Mr.. DeLong, but they
were not about and in order to gloss
over the remissness of the committee,
Mr.. Hickman made bold to approach
Senator Stewart in the reading room of
the hotel and apologize for the absence
OF the committee. His excuse was that
he thought and the committee thought
that he (the senator) would be with the
other speakers coming in over the nar-
row gauge.
The explanation did not set so we'll
with Mr.. Stewart, who gfumbled audi
lily, much to the discomfort of Mr.. Hick-
man.

ception committee struggled in.
