EsAu BUCK AND THE eucksAw.
The Bucl<snyv, the seesaw ana tn
Buck That saw Eaan SAW.


An old farmer OF Arkansas. whose sons
had all grown up and left him, hired a
young man Of the name of Esau Buck to
help him on his farm. On the evening of
the first day they hauled up small load
Of poles for wood and unlonded them be
tween the garden and the barnynrd.
The next morning the old man said to
the hired man. "Esau, am going to
town today, and while am gone you
may saw up that wood and keep the old
ram out of the garden"
When the old man had gone, Esau
went out to saw the wood, but when he
saw the saw he wouldn't saw it. When
Esau saw the saw, he saw that he
couldn't saw it with that saw. Esau
looked around for another saw, but that
was the only saw he saw, so he didn't
saw it. When the old man came home,
he says to Esau, "Esau, did you saw the
wood!" Esau said, II saw the wood,
but wouldn't saw it, for when saw
the saw saw that couldn't saw with
that saw, so didn't saw it, The old
man went out to see the saw, and when
he saw the saw he saw that Esau
couldn't saw with that saw. When Esau
saw that the old man saw that he
couldn't saw with the saw, Esau picked
up the nx and chopped up the wood and
made seesaw. The next day the old
man went to town and bought a new
bucksaw for Esau Buck, and when he
came home he hung the bucksaw for
Esau Buck on the sawbuck by the see
saw.
Just at this time Esau Buck saw the
old buck in the garden eating cabbage.
and when driving him from the garden
TO the barnyard Esau Buck saw the
bpcksaw on the sawbuck by the seesaw,
and Esau stopped to examine the new
bucksaw. Now when the old buck saw
Esnu Buck looking at the new bucksaw
on the sawhuck by the seesaw he made
dive for Esau, missed Esau, hit the
seesaw, knocked the seesaw against Esau
Buck, who fell on the bucksaw on the
sawbuck by the seesaw. Now when the
old man saw the old buck dive at Esnu
Buck and miss Esau and hit the seesnw
and knock the seesaw against Esau and
Esau Buck fall on the bucksaw on the
sawbuck by the seesnw he picked up tho
ak to kill the old buck. but the buck
saw him coming and lodged the blow
and countered on the old mans stomach,
knocked the old man over the seesaw
on to Esau Buck who was getting up
with the bucksaw of the sawbuck by the
seesaw, crippled Esau Buck, broke the
bucksaw and the sawbuck and the see.

Now when the old buck saw the com
pletencss of his victory over the old man
and Esau Buck and the bucksaw and the
sawbuck and the seesaw he quietly turn
ed around, went back and jumped into
the garden again and ate up what was
left of the old mans cabbage. Hartford

HANNA THANKS "BIG JIM.D
Negro Who Sprung Upon czolsosz
Guest of Buffalo Club.

BUFFALO, N. y, Sept. 1U.-JameS Ben
jamin Parker, or Big Jim" Parker, as
he is generally called, the negro who
jumped on the presidents assailant or
last Friday and would have killed him

special invitation from Mr.. Hanna to
come to see him. DO.
The negro has been a lion ever since
last Friday, He has sold the buttons
off his coat and waistcoat for sums
ranging from, S. to 500 apiece, and final
ly parted with all the clothing he wore
during the struggle. to visitors who
wanted them as souvenirs.
1t was not until Saturday afternoon
when he had nothing else left that he
had time to get his photographs taken.
These went off like hot cakes on Satur-
day night, and the photographer ex-
poets to work his asstants from now on
to the close of the show printing pic
lures.
So when big JIM came around to
the Buffalo club this afternoon to see
the senator from Ohio he was resplen-
dent in new raiment and his pockets
were lined with greenbacks and jingling
with coin.
He was abashed when was ushered
in and found himself guest of Buffa-
los most exclusive club. Senator Hanna
came forward with outstretched hand
and shook hands warmly with the ne
gro. He made him little speech, in
which he told Parker how brave he was

( -. - Is Is
AisWavs Of Indignation Sweeping Over
the Country.
Louisville, KY, Sept. 1O-"No threat
of Imperialism in this country can com
pare with that condition which would
make 1t necessary always to hedge
about about our highest officials with
military perfection. But if systematic
murder is allowed to stalk unrestricted
over our land, we shall reach period
when armed guards must surround every
official and even be stationed In our
courts of Justice"
These words were the keynote Of the
resolutions adopted last night at a
meeting Of 1000 citizens The demand
was made for vigorous laws against
anarchists, and the deepest sympathy
was expressed for President Mckinley.
Speeches were made by Ex-Governor

the Evening Post, Rev. E. L. Powell,
Judge A. P. Humphrey, Rev. DR.. ]. G.
Minnegerade, Hon. Henry Watterson,
editor of the Courier journal and 9TH
ers.
Hon. Henry Watterson referred to
the attempt on the life of the president
and said:
What must the world Of feudalism,
of monarchism, of despotism, think of
1t !? If the hand that struck down that
emperor of Russia who had given free
dom to the serfs, was the same had that
struck down that American president
who had given freedom to the slaves,
shall it be said there was anything more
sane or logical in the hand that struck
down Garfield, and Carnot, and McKin-
ley 1t must be, it can only be insanity,
born of something radically wrong in
modern ethics; to be punished indeed
and punished with death-but to be ex-
tirpated, If extirpated at all. by methods
more far-reachlng than the halter and
axe"
After saying that if Mckinley dies
now, che goes as Lincoln went, a glori-
Gus sacrificeat a glorious cause" Wat
terson asked, What then?" and con-
Guided:
I'VE must meet the blood stained
hands Of anarchism not merely
with cleaner hands, put with
purer public spirit, if not deep
er philosophy. We must disseminate
the lesson that the government exists
not for private gain of any, nor for the
cure of any private grief, but for jus
tice, the citadel and bell-tower of public
peace and order
"All of us this night are Mckinley
men. We pray this night that God will
spare his life"

SKIN GRATING OPERATION.
[Sioux City Journa1.l
An operation of skin grating on a
large scale will be done this week at the
Samaritan hospital upon the left arm OF
Mrs. John Van der Aard, of Orange
City, Ia.
Two years ago Mrs. Van der Aard was
badly burned in prairie fire in South
Dakota, her whole left side and arm
being scared. When the skin on he
arm healed it shrank TO sucn an extent
that 1T distorted the limb, doubling 1t up
so that it became useless, and it has
been 80 ever since. 1T expected by this
operation to restore the arms useful
ness.
Mrs. Van der Aard, with her husband
and two children, were living on a farm
near White Lake. S. D.. in 1899, when a
prairie fire drove them into cyclone
cave. The fire was SO hot and furious
however that the cave proved to be
nearly a crematory instead of place
of refuge.
The thatch covering It and the wood
work supporting the roof caught fire.
Mrs. Van der Aard and her two chill
dren were rendered unconscious by the
heat and smoke and fell to the floor of
the cave. Fortunately Mr.. Van de.
Aard retained consciousness an6 as soon
as he could he got out of the cave altho
he was badly burned in the attempt
| Then he went back and took his wife
and two children out of the fire and
brought them back to consciousness, he
himself then fainting away from ex-
haustion. 1t was terrible experience
for them. but they all recovered.
| Mrs. Van der Aard was burned the
worst, and as is the usual case in the
healing of burns of the skin, her
muscles were distorted as described. II
will be necessary to make number OF
incisions in the skin in order to straight
LIEN out the arm and then to graft on
skin in the gaps between the missions

1T is IMPORTANT,
To Know What You are Taking
When Using Cltarrh Medicines.

Catarrh Is the short route TO con-
sumption, and the Importance Of early
and judicious treatment Of Catarrh
whether located In the head, throat or
bronchial tubes, cannot be too strongly
emphasized.
The list Of catarrh cures is as long
as the moral law and the forms IN
which they are administered, numerous
and confusing, from sprays, inhalers
washes, ointments and salyes to pow
ders, liquids and tablets
The tablet form is undoubtedly the
most convenient and most effective, but
with nearly all advertised catarrh rene
dies Il Is almost entirely a matter OF
guess work as TO what you are tax
ing into your system, as the proprietors
while making all sorts of claims as TO
what their medicines will do, always
keep II close secret as to what they
are
The success and popularity Of the new
catarrh cure, Stuart's Catanh Tablets,
Is largely because II not only cures

who used these tablets know what they

BASEBALL
GAMES TODAY.
Fans Do Not Feel Cheerful Over
the Weather Condition,
MINERS GONE TO OGDEN.

Local basebalists felt rather down
in the mouth" when they arose this
morning and beheld what had happened
during the night. After days Of sun
shine, which put the diamond into fair
~ good condition to find that the day Of
all days they desired to be bright and
clear, to find that it began with a
heavy rainfall, is, to say the least,
rather discouraging
OF course this has made the grounds
muddy and very dsagreeabie.
Both local teams were out in force
yesterday afternoon for a couple Of
hours practice and the mana
gers are up to their eyes in
business. There Is much speculation as
to who will win the game and not a
few wagers have been made. hhe
Railways feel confident Of winning and
the Salt Lakes cannot see how they
can possibly lose. With such conditions
existing the game ought to be lively
indeed. Last evening the News pub
lished the lineup Of the teams, but not

As regards hitters, the Railways have
been more than particular in securing
men who are considered A l with the

working to that end The lineup Of the
