AN ENDLESS CHAIN SCHEME.

Is cents. Sold BY all medicine dealers.

Cleveland, O., Feb. 14.-An endless
chain letter scheme, started by some
person unknown to the officials OF
, the Mckinley National Memorial as
scciation, is giving serious work to
the clerks of the organization both
at Cleveland and Canton. Already
81, 900 has been received through the
chain letters, each Of which contain
ten cents. These letters are being
sent to Judge William R. Day at
Canton, and the Office force Of the
association there has found it i'm
possible to handle the big volume of
mail. As result the letters are
placed in sacks and shipped from
Canton to Myron T. Herrick, the ma
.tional treasurer, at Cleveland. The
last shipment contained 5000 letters.
At the national headquarters of the
association here yesterday it was
stated that all subscriptions should
be sent directly to Myron 7. Herrick,
The treasurer, at Cleveland. From
information contained in some OF
the letters the chain scheme is sup
posed to have started at Fort Wayne,
Ind. 1t now covers every section OF
the country and the mail is daily
and rapidly increasing.

Strong Ground Taken Against the Ole'
.Bill-A Miserable Afternoon for the
Roping Contest

Wichita, Kan, Feb. lathe Okla
homs Lave Stock association yester-
day took strong ground against the
passage Of an interchangeable bill
pending in congress-. The question OF
effecting a consolidation with the
other cattlemen's association of the
southwest was left to the executive
committee. A long statement OF the
freight rate situation was incor-
porated in a resolution urging con-
gress to give the interstate commerce
commission more power.
Several thousand people stood for
two hours in the afternoon in a driz-
cling rain and sleetstorm to witness
the roping contest participated in BY
the crack cowboys Of the west and
Miss Bessie Mulhall. Twenty wild
steers were turned loose, one at
time. The contest was to see which
cowboy could rope and throw and
tie his steer the quickest. 1t was a
miserable day for such work.

tribunals, and the question Of their

WHAT SHE WANTED.

She was a charming little southerner who had recently come from snan Kentucky town to spend the winter III the metropolis with an artist aunt Who has a small flat on the west Slde. A few days ago it fell to her lot (her aunt being absorbed in the pursuit or 'satmosphere," or something of that kind to which the artistic fraternity IS addicted to go to the butchers. the bakers, etc, to purchase few house hold supplies.
 Not being familiar with the soar ing prices of meats in the metropolis, she was somewhat staggered on in curing the price of nam in the first grocery she entered, to find it 23 cents a pound That price she decided was too steep, and she consequently sought further, resolved that if she could not do better she would descend to cheap canned ham, Her eye was presently caught by a very attractive display in a delicatessen window; so she entered and inquired of the round-faced Teu- ton who was behind the counter, what he asked for ham.
 ssIt vas thirdy-drhe cents," he re- piled.
 The young lady could not restrain an exclamation. 'MyA goodness, but that is very high"-and then the idea occurred to her about the timed ham.
 So she said to the clerk, "Have you any potted meats%'
 The young German did not seem to grasp the idea, for he Inquired:
 sVas? Potted meats?''
 "Potted meats." repeated the girl, with tone of impatience in her voice.
 The clerk not fully understanding her and fearing that she was trying to find fault with his stock, said rather brusquely: i've haf meats vat iss goot to eat if dot iss vot you want"
 This statement puzzled and embar- rassed her, for she began to think (as most strangers do under such circum- stances) that the clerk saw that she was not a habitual dweller in Gotham and was inclined to make sport of her unsophisticated ways. But her pride came speedily to her rescue. Her del icate face flushed little as she turned to leave. but there was naughty little twinkle in her dark eyes as she said, very sweetIv and very demurely:
 "Oh. no, that kind wouldn't do at all. wanted some I could use as an orna- ment' And she rushed back to the flat, and. bursting into tears. told the story to her aunt.--N New York Times.

lands, and, except during migration, it is rarely met with about open bays or large bodies of water.
 Within the past few years friends of game protection have felt encouraged not only by the apparent awakening of a more healthy public sentiment against undue destruction of birds and mammals, but also by the progress. sive movement in the direction of more extended and more uniform close seasons. But although much has been done for the protection of upland game, little has been accomplished toward saving the waterfowl. Unaccountable as it may seem, ducks are considered legitimate game at a season when they are hurrying to their nesting grounds, and spring shooting is still tolerated in great majority of the states of the union.
 Let it be said however, to their last ing credit, that seven states (New Hampshire, Vermont, Michigan, Wis consin, Minnesota, Utah, and Califor- nia), and three Canadian provinces
 Manitoba, Ontario and New Bruns- wiclkl, by closing the season before February 1, have abolished spring shooting within their borders.
