A YOUNG PROTECTOR.
An Incident of the Paris Commune
Which Deeply Impressed an
English Ambassador,

During the Franco-Prussian war
Sir Edward Malet was one of the
secretaries of the British embassy at
Paris. Many persons, during the
dreadful days of the Commune, came
to him for help. One day little boy
appeared. He seemed to be about
eight years old, and had large black
eyes and rather wistful, worn ex-
preston. He used careful and DELHI
crate phrases, such as might come
from man rather than from a child,
relates Youths Companion.
IF you please, SIR said he, my
mother and l are in great trouble.
The shells have struck many of the
houses in our neighborhood, and l
am very anxious to move my mother
farther in town, but we have no
money, and we cannot leave without
paying our rent"
mentally began to button up my
trousers pocket.
"Has your mother no friends in
PARISH" l asked.
mo, sir. We live by ourselves. I
do not think she has any friends she
could ask to help her"
"How much do you want?"
Five hundred francs, if you please,
sir"
l fastened another button, but he
continued quietly:
"0f course, sir, l feel that | am
asking very great kindness of you,
but l will pay you back as soon as
the post comes"
1t was true that numberless per
sons were stranded because remit
tances could not be sent. Banks
were closed, and those Who had no
ready money by them when the
trouble began were in great straits.
Still had no mind to risk 500 francs
on the word of child.
why didn't your mother come her
self?" / asked, helplessly.
Il don't think she thought of it,
sir" he said. "She doesn't know that
l have come"
The buttons all unfastened them
selves l gave him the money.
THANK you, sir" said he, quietly,
and left the room. I knew had seen
the last of those 500 francs.
About week after the Commune
was over my little boy suddenly APP
peared before me.
Il am glad to see YOU" said I.
How is your motheg2"

for months after, and at the time
thought death was a welcome relief
but before my last child was born
good neighbour advised Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, and

before the child's birth ;-it brought
me wonderful relief. l hardly had an
ache or pain, and when the child was

and l am sure that continuation OF

runa is surely wonderful remedy
for catarrhal affections.-J. d. Botlzin.
This is a case of catarrh of thestomach
which had run for twenty five years,
according to his statement, and Peruna
has at once come to his relief, promptly
accomplishing for him more benefit than
he had been able to find in all other
remedies during quarter of century.
1t stands to reason that a man of
wealth and influence, like a Congress-
man of the great United States, has left
no ordinary means untried and no stone
unturned to find a cure.
If such cures as these do not verify
the claim not only that dyspepsia is due
to catarrh of the stomach, but also that
Peruna will cure catarrh of the stom-
ach, it is impossible to imagine how any
evidence could do so.

Captain 0. Bertoletto of the Italian
Barque 'Lincelles," in recent letter
from the chief office of the Italian
BarqueLincelles, Pensacola, Fla, writes:
al have suffered for several years
with chronic catarrh of the stomach.
The doctors prescribed for me without
myreceiHng the least benefit. Through
one of your pamphlets 1 began the use
of Peruna, and two bottles have en-.
tirely cured me. RECOMMEND Peruna
to all my friends. 20. BertOIetfO.
In catarrh of the stomach, as well as
catarrh of any part of the body, Peruna
is the remedy. As has been often said
if Peruna will cure catarrh of one part,
twill cure catarrh of any other part of
the body.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
and the remedy that will cure it any
where viii cure it everywhere.

A few days ago Senator Clark, the
Montana multi-millionaire, went into
Butte barber shop for a haircut and
a shave. When he asked the price at
the end of the service the barber re-
piled: Your son, Charley usually gives
me five dollars The senator quietly
asked the regular fee, and when told
it was so cents, handed out half-doI-

mark to the barber: MY son Charley

There have been on hand at one
time in the sparrow cotes, as
many as 1000 birds awaiting sale.
They are fed on oats and given
free access to water, and no re-
strictions are put on their fight
ing, which, to the accompani-
ment of deafening chatter, goes
on without moments cessation.
The total demand in this city
for sparrows for the gun clubs
may be said to average about
500 birds per understanding by
half the call for live pigeons for
trap shooting,
In seeking the sparrow for the
gunner the trappers find them
selves without competition, Only
once did any but the target sup
ply man invade the market-and
that was recently when an enter
prising chap, in the guise of a
soldier, bought the birds, dyed
their wings and breasts, and sold
them as philippine 6nches, -

San Angelo The Queen.

Take a map Of the state and look
on the south western corner
thereof, gaze along the crooked
lines that represent streams of
water, put the point of a pin on
the place that designates San
Angelo and measure the wide
expanse Of fertile plain, of hill
and dale TO the westward until
you find crooked marks that re-
present ~ much water, pure,
living, ripping health giving
water-you win stretch the
string beyond the confines of
Texas and yet not reach n point
where such quantities of living
waters are found.
Then pause and consider: This
country is in the very incipiency
of Development. The possibili-
ties of the future can only be in a
faint maner surmised. The en-
croachments of civilization are
just beginning. Look twenty
five years ahead The possibilities
of San Angelo and the great
Concho-Pecos country staggers
the intellect. Immagine time
when every two acres in this vast
expanse of territory will susport a
COW brute, raised by the intellect
of man from the long horn of the
past TO the first beef producers
raised on feed and each worth two
or three Of the old timers. In
other words the great meat pro-
ducing grounds of the great state
of Texas--the most prosperous
country that the imagination of
man is capable Of picturingl
There is no place west of San
Angelo adapted to the profitable
conduct of great factories, such
as meat packeries etc. Then San
Angelo is the place where these
things will be. This is no childs
fancy nor idle dream. 1t is COM
ing. Time will show that these
remarks have been evolved into
history and the greatest town in
Texas will be San Angelo; the
greatest, most prosperous intel
lectual people of the state will
inhabit the empire contributory
to San Angelo-the great Concho-
Pecos region.

They are easier and more pleasant

New Targets For Shooters.

In a majority of Texas towns it
is difficult matter to secure live
bird targets. In many places
bats have been tried. They are
"hard to hit" and ought TO be kill
ed, but they are not procurable
in all places.
From a Philadelphia paper we
learn of new target in the shape
of live birds, the killing of which
will be blessing to the agricul-
tural interests.
The following article will prove
interesting to our local readers:
The detested English sparrow
is achieving notoriety in q new
field. Gradually he is supplant-
ing the pigeon as live target for
the skilled marksman.
This has given rise to the occu-
patton of capturing sparrows for
the gunners. Two men practical
ly have the monopoly of the busi-
ness in this city, and they are
very rarely without several hun
dred of the birds on hand, Their
charge to the gunners is So a
bird, delivered at the club house.
The plan is to buy them, and
they pay fixed price of 35 cents
per dozen for live sparrows de-
livered at their places of bust
ness. This has set many boys
and girls, and even some grown
persons, to catching sparrows.
Shares, traps and nets in all the
outlying parks and in open places.
The pigeons killed at the traps
are sent to the market and sold as
squads. There il no market for
the dead sparrow, though it is
said that sparrow makes de-
licious eating and is scarcely dis
tinguishable from a succulent
reed bird.
In trap shooting at sparrows,
the practice is necessarily finer
than in that at pigeons, and the
wing shot who can point to
500 record at the little birds is
duly proud. But the fad has
grown until all the shots are
doing" sparrows, both in prac-
tice and for little, quiet matches
between themselves. Hence, the
sparrow industry.
From the gunners' standpoint
it is commended, for example, that
there is no pain to the pigeon in
being shot, and none, therefore,
to the sparrow. If the pigeon or
sparrow be killed outright, the
of pain can never
be said to exist. But if the bird
be merely wounded or mutilated,
there is, Of course, cruelty. |
Therefore, these ingenious
argue in favor of spar
row shooting as against pigeon
That a shot which
strikes a sparrow will almost in
variably kill it, whereas, the same
shot might only wound a pigeon.
