F. c. REID. CLERK.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1902-05-02

Although there are few men of his
age more active than William Curtis
Gibson of East Houston street, the
oldest survivor of the Volunteer Fire
Department, he gives strong proof OF
his Scotch ancestry occasionally by
his inability to appreciate a joke.
Mr.. Gibson was born in New York
and he has always lived here. His
friends say that only once in his life
has he travelled more than ten miles
away from this city. That was last
summer, when he went up to the Cats
kills.
1t was on this trip that he met a
farmer who disguised him with every
thing rural. Mr.. Gibson says he never
met a more stupid man, and when he
tells his squirrel story to prove it all
his friends laugh. The experience
speaks for itself.
Mr.. Gibson was interested in the
farm at first because it was a novelty.
At the end of the first week he said
to the farmer:
Say, this is great. 1 am glad I
came. 1 wish that l might take some
of your squirrels back to New York
with me as souvenirs of this trip"

Secret of a Hunters
Great Success
Explained.

Keeping the horse between him and
around them. Now and then the pony
stopped to take a mouthful of grass.
Any man, let alone a goose, would
have taken him for a loose animal
grazing on the prairie.
In course of an hour he had been
worked within fifty yards of the
thickest part of the bunch. Some OF
the stragglers were not twenty yards
from him.
Then Gregorio stepped from behind
him and fired n barrel at the geese
on the prairie and another as they
rose. He gathered five or six, then
rode to the division fence a quarter
of a mile away.
Evidently it was his intention to
enter the next pasture. The fence
vas of three strands of wire, the low
est two feet from the ground.
Gregorio got down from the saddle
and at a word from him the horse
sunk to his knees, then turned upon
his side. Gregorio took him by the
headstall and pulled his head under
the fence, then took him by the tail
and pulled his headquarters under,
and so, pulling first at head and then
at tail, worked him through.
Once clear of the bottom wire, the
pony rose, shook himself and stood to
be mounted as if nothing but of the
ordinary had happened. The mystery
Of Gregorio's ability to go from pas
ture to pasture in search of geese and
ducks was explained and the ranch
boss was so tickled by it that he in
structed his men to let the Mexican
alone.

"Sure you can," said the farmer,
'Just go out and help yourself to as
many as you want. I've got more OF
them than l want"
THANK you, very much, but how
will | get them?"
Catch 'em, of course. It's easy
when you know how"
"All right, you tell me how and I'll
catch a few"
WELL" said the farmer, first off
you creep up as near as you can get
to them"
EYES," said Mr.. Gibson.
"And then you make the right kind
of a noise to attract them and they
will come to you"
What kind of a niose ought I to
make?" asked Mr.. Gibson eagerly.
Just make a noise like a nut" re-
piled the farmer, and off he walked.
When Mr.. Gibson tells this story
he says positively that a nut does not
make any noise and that a farmer who
had lived in the country all his life
without discovering that fact is too
stupid to live anywhere else.-New

Leansboro, ILL.,, years ago. 1t was a
bitter cold Sunday morning when l
went to the depot to take a train west.
1t was the only one that day and due

country woman, a waiting passenger,

Clever Pony

Great numbers of wild geese were
the past winter, as happens every
year. That region divides with the
Dakotas in the fall the honor of being
the greatest goose field on the Am
erican continent.
The increasing shyness of the birds
was more marked than ever. The
geese have been shot at so much in
the same territory that they have not
only grown wiser. but many Of them
have ceased visiting that region.

ces region a Mexican poacher named
Gregorio who in the winter sold geese
by the dozen when other men could
not get a feather. All of that country
is in vast pastures fenced by barbed
wire and Gregorio being a market
hunter, was ordered to stay out of
them all.
In order to keep him out the gates,
which are far apart, were locked and
only the ranch bosses had keys. Still
Gregorio would continue to go from
pasture to pasture, covering thirty
miles in a day and to show up in
Corpus Christi or Rockport at night
with Canada geese hanging to his sad
die and strung all over him.

and, being curious, dismounted and

Peruna stimulates the kidneys to
eXcrete from the blood the

commissions which are sure to follow if
the poisons are allowed to remain. 1t
gives great vigOr to the hearts action

mother, Miss Clementina Drummond,
who married Lord Willoughby de

forts to regain the Drummond prop

to encounter, so that his long life was
neither prosperous nor happy. Few

learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all it's
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now known to the

foundation of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution and
