AN ADVENTURE WITH A COW
She Had Blood in Her Eye and
 Murder in Her Heart.

Mir. J. R. Meskimmons, while on trip to Buckeye this week, experienced an adventure that was not on the bills, and for which he was little prepared at the time. II started out bright and early Tuesday morning on his bicycle and made excellent progress across the desert. late rains having packed tine ground nicely and made it excellent for wheeling. When within about ten miles of Buckeye and still on the des- ert he was placed hors du combat by mad COW which was standing appar- rntly chewing the cud of reflection. without the least warning the COW sprang at Mir Meskimmons, and in flash man, wheel and COW went down together in mad scramble. MT, Mes kimmons quickly scrambled to his feet, and sizing up the situation a good bit more rapidly than 1t takes to tell it, seiZ- d the COW by her horns and nose and again forced her to a recumbent position. As he then sat on her head he had time to figure on the chances of getting out of the scrape with the least difficulty. As he reckoned up his assets he saw that the prospects were not very bright. He was utterly without wea- pon of offens. or defense, not having even a pocket knife with him. It was plain that he could not sit eternally on the head of the COW, waiting for her to calm down. Equally impossible. al- most, was the alternative to let her go, for the disposition of the COW was not to get gone. but to come toward the object of her hate with untoward and unrue violence. Just about this time the appearance of Mexican on load of wood was exec dingly grateful and timely. The native yielded to the per suasions of Mr. Meskimmons and stop ped his team. As quick as a flash Mr. Meskimmons let go his hold on the COW and ran to the other side of the wagon, with the COW coming up at him. A fewminutes of this sport convinced the hunted man that it couldn't last forev- CT and he scrambled on top of the load and began bombarding the COW with bllets from that magazine. The COW was like Mary's lamb and continued to

subsidies for which it provides" he
states, would chiefly accrue, for some
time to come, TO American lines which
cross the Atlantic and Pacific for the
purpose Of carrying passengers and eN-
pensive freight What the country
really needs Is carriage at reasonable
rates for the immense yield of our gri-
culture and for the bulky products Of
our mines" This IS precisely the pur-
pose for which the pending subsidy bill
does not provide.

statutes. by which British shipping
had been protected since Cromwolfs
time. were practically abandoned by
England In 1919, while we were her
formidable rival. British merchants
were then permitted to buy our ships
and sail them under their own flag,
while engaged in foreign commerce.
All other American nations have fol
lowed this example except the United
States. and the merchant marine OF all
other nations has increased while our

General Macarthur had the
CHARGES investigated bY his In

ing a report that they were un-
founded, summoned the editor to
his office and ordered him to
promise not to write any more such
arti les. The newspaper man in
sisted that his statements were
true, and refused to promise to
keep silence. Thereupon the Mill

dered his immediate banishment.
By this procedure General NC

which say:
The trial Of all crimes except in cases
Of impeachment. shalt be by jury.

That is to say, some 100000 is to be
paid by the government to keep afoat
shipping already more than 20 years
old and which by every rule OF mari
time accounting has already been
charged of to profit and loss. Indeed
the International itself, as soon as the
Paris is again in commission, would
draw S7JOOOO on ships j. and 10 years

While Mr.. Chamberlain was on this
subject he might have added greatly to
the interest OF his report, for the fact
is that as nearly as may be one-half

what the Beers Are Fighting For.
Morning Leadsy. Jan. 5.

4lDgWATG LCNecga Jun -
No sane man could ever wish to see
the Kruger regime in force again. The
policy Of large armaments and narrow
franchise shares with the Jameson raid
and the artificial agitation Of the South
African League the responsibility for
all the present sufierings OF South Africa
But the Beers are not fighting now for
the Dopper order OF things. Mr. Kruger
has gone, Mr., Steyn was no reactionary,
and both De Wet and Botha were oppo-
sition leaders. The Beers are simply
fighting for a sane measure of sell
government which will give them
reasonable security against the greed
Of the financiers, the racial prejudice Of
the UitIanders, and the ignorance OF
Downing street But whatever hopes
Lord Kitchener may have encouraged
are rudely dashed by the official intim-
alton Of Sir Alfred Miners appointment;
to be Governor OF the Transvaal. To
the Beers he will always be the author
OF the present war, war which they
! regard as cruel and unjust.
