out Of the window and saw two boys
warming their feet on place where a
COW had been lying all night. The pres
ident chuckled and said:
"Gentlemen, do you know that one Of
the most delightful recollections Of my
boyhood is the solid comfort of the ex-
perience those boys are now having
warming frostbitten feet in the place
where COWS have been lying down."

that Bates hair had retained it's origi-

Turcoman Brides.

When Il Turcoman belle is to be set
tied in life, the whole tribe turns out,
and the young lady, being allowed the
choice of horses, gallops away from
her suitors. She avoids those she dis
likes and seeks to throw herself in the
way of the object of her affections. The
moment she is caught she becomes the
wife of her captor, who, dispensing
with further ceremony, takes her to
his tent
The bride race is also an established
custom among the Kalmucks, and the
girls are such excellent horsewomen
that, we are told, it would be impos-
sible to catch one against her will

Craddock was employed as a clerk in
his brothers dry goods store at 200
North James street. He had been in i'll
health for many months, and of late had

the brothers directions as TO the dispO-
sition of property.
Bruce Craddock was well known
