negro children, who seemed 10 spring

see US. Presently this gentleman came out
ana gave US all a most elaborate and
eourtiy greeting His attire was striking

OF which were embroidered Instead Of a
shirt he had on what looked .iEe a WOm-

tened at the back After we had explained
that we wished TO see his works of art
and after duly modest protests on his
part, he took as into the house

bride standing under an electric light.
large quantities of white paint being used
TO get the light effect Another painting
was a nude Christ. In place Of the tra-
ditiOnai fig-ieaf piece OF uph0lstering
fringe was tackled across the figure with
brass nails. There was an Old portrait Of
the railroad magnate who built the house,
and the present owner has appropriately
added railroad train 70 the picture. Mys-
teal figures adorn the wall and ceilings
In many Of the pictures appears a face
that seems TO be portrait of the artist
himself
A great old mahogany bedstead placed
on end stood in a recess in the wall, and
within its frame a sidebOard was ingeul-
ousiy cOntTived. A window had been cut
in one Of the inside walls. and this was
glazed with red and yellow glass Our
host explained that 1t was an Easter win
dow and that the red glass represented
the sunrise while the yellow showed the
sunset effect. About IL, and. indeed, all
over the house, were dried grasses and
flowers.

decorated. Our host explained that he did
not sleep very well and entertained him
self while lying awake by spinning this
wheel The party was escorted % the sec

existed as downstairs Including the
chickens. which made free of the whole
house. but seemed especially 70 occupy
one room. where was a very ancient harp
sichord. We were not permitted 70 enter
this room; the owner explained that y
was too dirty He went in, however. ana
to the accompaniment OF the harpsich0rd,
sang a few verses OF 4 song as ancient
as the Instrument itself
Our host told us gOOd-by with the man
ners Of Chesterfield. inviting us to re-
turn He pointed out an old stone spring
house on the place that was the scene or
an Indian massacre. Tradition IN the
neighborhOOd says that a large party or
settlers. twelve or fifteen, took refuge m
this stone building. but the Indians broke
in upon them and killed all, both men
and women.

1t didn't seem possible that he
would, for Davis hadn't RELY charged
MN with cheatin', though the words
sure was insultin'. an a insult them
days was counted worse than a blow
but he had the drop all right an il
Davis had had sense he'd ha' took il
back an laid for q chance later. but ]
reckon he was pretty mad. an bein' a
man without fear he undertook TO jaw
back
I don't just remember what twas
he said, but know he started to say
somethin' ugly. an Holloway pulled his
trigger before the words was fairly
out
20 course Davis fell over dead. an
the next minute Billings an Holloway
was shootin' at each other. It didn't
seem possible that they could miss
when they was near enough TO touch
each other, but I reckon twas the
struggle that spoiled their aim. Any
way, they fired three or four shots be-
fore either of EN- fell, but when they
did fail they were both dead.
Just naturally there was a terrible
excitement. It was all done SO quick
that there want no chance Tor nobody
but Beauregard to interfere if any
body had wanted to, but after il was
all over everybody rushed in to see
what it meant, an the only man on the
boat that didn't seem the least bit ex-
cited was BeaureEaTd.
He'd sat perfectly still through il
all, sookin' on, but not maxim a move.
An all he said when 1t was all over
was.
Well, that seems 10 stop this game

1NGERsoLL ON woMARs LOVE.
The Eloquent Sentiment Of the Great
Agnostic.

1T takes a hundred men to make an
encampment. but one woman can
make a home. / not only admire Wo-
man as the most beautiful object ever
created. but 1 reverence her as the re-
deeming glory of humanity, the sane
tuary of all the virtues, the pledge Of
all perfect qualities of heart and head.
l. is not just nor right to lay the sins
OF men at the feet Of women. 1t is
because women are so much better
than men that their faults are consid-
cred greater. A mans desire is the
foundation of his love, but a woman g
desire is born Of her love.
THE one thing in this world that is
constant, the one peak that rises above
all clouds. the one window in which
the light forever burns, the one star
that darkness cannot quench. is -wO-
mans love- 1t rises to the greatest
heights, it sinks to the lowest depths,
it forgives the most cruel injuries It
is perennial of life and grows in every
climate Neither GOODNESS nor neglect.
harshness nor cruelty can extinguish
it. woman's love is the perfume OF
the heart This is the real love that
subdues the earth; the love that has
wrought all miracles Of art; that gives
US music all the way from the cradle
song TO the grand closing symphony
that bears the soul away on wings OF
fire. A love that is greater than pow
er. sweeter than life and stronger than

ure-laden winds from the Pacific. ocean
would be expected to make their way
to the eastern portion Of the state
bringing fertility in their path. The
man who suggests this improvement
upon nature thinks that the valleys
would make admirable highways for
the railroads
Sc far there is no suggestion of a
government appropriation. which Is
more remarkable than that the scheme
should have been suggested
When Senator Warren Of Wyoming
rushed 70 separate Tillman and Nc
Laurin in the senate chamber the other
day he must have remembered rather
vividly scene which was once enacted
in the Wyoming territorial legislature
when ne presided over that body.
On that occasion. two members, after
the free and easy manners Of the
western statesmen wanted to secure a
bin which was upon the clerks desk
and make away with it. The stalwart
legislators, when they attempted TO
seize the bill, were confronted by the
clerk. A struggle ensued. Senator War
rem, as soon as he gTasped the situa-
ton. leaped from his chair and precipi~
tated himself upon the combatants.
Single-h handed. he separated three men.
rescued the bin, put the clerk back at
his desk, and sent the two legislators
10 their seats Then he resumed his
place as presiding officer.
The house viii come to order" was
his sole remark.
A certain breeziness of atmosphere
which now marks the White House re-
minded an Indiana member yesterday
Of the days when Andy" Johnson was
president. Johnson decided to appoint
Dave Cooling of Indiana as United
States marshal for the District of CO.
lUmbia. In those days the position
was one OF much more social import
ance than IL IS now, for the marshal
made the presentations to the presi-
dent az all official functions. Gooding
arrived here early in the morning and
went direct to the White House. As
the president was not awake, GOOding
loafed around and finally presented
himself to Mr.. Johnson, looking con-
siderably the worse for travel. John
son looked over him with a critical eye.
Dave he said, you are going to
have your job. all right, but you have
got to spruce up a bit. I am. a tailor.
and if I only had a little more time I
would make you a new suit of clothes.
1 think if I were you I would go and
get fixed up"
GoOding took the hint. When he next
appeared ne was arrayed in purple and
hne linen. He always expressed the
regret however, that ne lost the unique
experience Of wearing a suit of clothes
made by the president Of the United
States.

cash shawn by last weeks statement
was S2,425 500. This considerably
varies from the sum which was esti-
mated from the traceable movements

amount was probably due to remit
tanCes to Boston and Philadelphia OF
gold certificates through the mail. The
loans were reduced S7,77L0l0. making

sharp contraction of loans would seem
