IN. lie Colonel BRYAN.
(Des Moines l.eaier.l


In a paper published in the south of
France is found an amusing account Of
the early life and exploits of Colonel
Bryan. The story, it appears, was writ
ten by the Paris correspondent of the
provincial paper, and is based, so the
writer AYERS, on the information furnished
by friends of the candidate who have
been prominent at the French capital.
The western wag who filed the French
man SO full OF new and startling informa-
ton must have smiled to himself as he
read in cold print the statement that IN.
lie Colonel Bryan first came into fame as
one of the strange, half-savage band Of
cowboys who roamed over the far west,
fighting Indians and wild beasts. Imi-
tating, perhaps, the custom of the Indian
chiefs, each of the cowboys bore nick
name based on some of his exploits as
hunter or 6ghte-. Thus M. lie Colonel
Bryan's title among his rough, but brave
and sturdy comrades was Silver Bill, the
dead shot. After the treaty of peace was
signed with the Indians at Chicago in
1896. Colonel Bryan went out of the cat
tie business and became one of the bo-
nanza farmers of the west. He can now
sit on his back stoop, as the rear veranda
is called in America, and look over his
fields Of corn stretching farther than the
eye can reach in every direction. As a
result of his early training on the plains,
where he spent months at time without
an opportunity of talking to another
human being, the candidate for president
is extremely taciturn and can hardly be
persuaded to express an opinion on the
issues of the campaign. He is the au-
thor of book Of adventure called The
First Battle in which some of his en-
counters with the Indians of the Tam
many and other tribes are described at
length.
"In the effort to partially neutralize
the strength of M. lie Colonel among the
cowboys and Indians who make up the
largest part of the voting population west
of the Allegheny mountains, the republic.
cans have nominated M. lie Roosevelt for
vice president. NJ, lie Roosevelt is one Of
the leading cowboys in America, and is
especially famous for once having van
pushed grizzly bear in single combat.
During the present campaign M. lie
Colonel Roosevelt has ridden series OF
horses all over the country, giving exhi-
billions of rough riding such as were seen
in Paris year or more ago under the
direction of another American States
man."

III WROTE TO BOTH MEN.
But They Compared Notes and Spoiled
His Effect.

The Candid Friend.
Many tales are told of the dealings of Ii
Hung Chang with his diplomatic subordi-
mates. and there is characteristic story
afiOat with regard TO his relations with the
present minister to England, Sir Chih Chen
Io Feng Luh. The time was that of the
siege of the legations i'm Picking, when all
the civilized world was in fear as 10 the
fate of the beleaguered, and when China,
with her emsSaries and all pertaining to
her. was looked on with no very friendly
eye. Ii Hung Chang was the virtual ruler
of China, and it was from him that the
various ministers and ambassadors re-
ceived their instructions. There had aD-
parently. been some fresh manifesto ton
of European displeasuYe, when one day
the minister in England received from Ii
a message, the purport of which was as
follows:
I'VE are not satisfied with your efforts in
London. The English are hostile and you
are not energetic enough You are neglect
ing to influence the government. The man
who is doing all the work is your colleague
in Washington. Wu Tingfang. He is the
man you should initiate.
Unfortunately for Lis little game Sir
Chth Chen and WI Tingfang happened TO
be close friends. and the minister here con-
fded what had happened TO his friend N
Washington. WI Tingfang was, 10 say the
least of it. surprised.
This is very extraordinary" he replied
Il also have had a message from Ii Hung
Chang. This is what he says to me:
- Your efforts are not giving satisfac-
ton. We feel you should be more energetic
and that you should try to influence the
American government to take our side III
this affair. You are not doing half enough
and. if you want an example YOU should

is doing all the work. =

a rule, we do not care TO buy horses that
have attained this age. AS a matter OF
fact. a horse at this age should be as good
as he is at six. The trouble lies in the
fact that the average man does not know
how TO take care OF his horse. / Will haZ-
ard the statement that indigestion kills
more horses than men. This may sound
strange, but il isn't a bit strange. Horses
are not fed properly. They are given too
much at one time and not enough at an
other. Many men just give horse any
thing they happen to have on hand. i heard
a story on a clOSe-fisted Arkansas farmer
who was in the habit of giving his stock
the worst of il generally, and il only aptly
illustrates the point j am urging. He would
ride an old fiea-bitten mule over his place
all day long. giving the animal no more
food than il could nip from the grasses at
the turning row. At night he would un-
buckle the saCule, slip the bride from the
mules head. and turn the faded member
into an old brickyard which lay behind his
home. Go on now and founder your dern
fool self. he would say as he turned the
tired mule adrift to feed upon the Injuries
OF the backyard. Too many mules and too
many horses are forced 10 depend upon the
brickyard for sustenance. and that is why
they are worn out at twenty. If men would
take better care Of their horses they would
be young at this age. and more thoughtful
attention generally would give the country
a better class of stock"

MURDER IN SHELBY COUNTY.
Fight over a Farm Boundary Results
in n Mans Death.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
SHELBYVILLE, Ind. Dec. pa quar-
rel over a division fence in the west part
of this county resulted last night in a
tight between Clarence Sandefur and
George w Scott. in which Scott received
injuries from which he died this morning.
Sandefur lives with his father and mother
and Scott owns the adjoining farm. Fri
day evening Scott drove along the road in
front of the Sandefur home and told young
Sandefur that he felt like whipping him.
The boy replied that here was a good
enough place. Scott got of the wagon
and the men went at it.
Two stories are told. One is that Sande-
fur pushed Scott back against the wagon
wheel and struck his head against the
wheel The other is that the two men
were wrestling and Mrs. Sandefur went
out with a club and struck Scott on the
head twice. Scott got into his wagon and
drove home a distance of half mile. This
morning he died. Mrs Sandefur and her
son are both in Jail
Some months ago Sandefur had survey
made and the line was found TO take OF
an inch Of SCOTS barn and he was forced
10 move il. Scott had another survey
made and the line took off part Of the
Sandefur farm. A few days ago young
was ordered of. Both the families have
stood we'll and this is the first trouble
that any of them have had. Scott left
widow and seven children. SandCiur is the
son of George w. Sandefur- q well-knOwn
and wealthy farmer.
