Never SockIess.

While at Miles City last week Jerry
Simpson explained how he came to
have the name "Sockless" made a
prefix to his name. The circumstan.
ces are as follows:
1t was during his first campaign for
congress and he was poor and not at
all modish In dress, while his oppo.
nent was an immensely popular man,
so popular that he had earned the
soubriquet of Prince" and had the
necessary money to act the part. which
he did ito the queens taste" Jerry,
in a SIS suit of store clothes. was no
doubt at a disadvantage, and to ad
Just the sartorial equilibrium he re-
ferred to the Prince" as a wearer OF
ST.. socks. This brought from the
other side the charge that Jerry am
bled through life without any socks al
all, and the insane jest OF Kansas
hustings was transported to Washing
ton. whence II was retailed to the
whole country by alert correspond
ents, and as a result Jerry became IA
nous for crime against society that
he was guiltless of. but which he new
er can sufficiently deny to convince
the world that the charge was un
true.

VISITS MekINLeY,s TOME.
The Wife Of the Martyred President
Cannot Forget.

"Her one comfort is in her daily
visit to the tomb of her husband.
She seems to be living only in his
memory and for the purpose OF honor.
ing him."
The words we're spoken of Mrs. Nc.
Kinley by an intimate friend of hers.
They tell in a nutshell of the daily
life of the woman who has not re-
covered. and never will recover. from
the effects of the shot by the assass-
in's bullets that cost the life of her
illustrious husband at Buffalo.
For her convenience at the vault a
rocking chair has been placed in the
house Of the deau, near the Mckinley
casket. A heavy rug on the floor pro-
tects her from the dampness. When
she enters the tomb she is always
clothed with heavy wraps. so as to
prevent any cold from getting hold in
her system. The guards of national
soldiers on duty have come to regard
her daily visit to the vault as sacred,
and they pay to her the most profound
sympathy and attention.-Philadel-

Would Not Have Appealed In Vain.

Would Not Have Appealed in Vain.
Doctor Mackay-Smith of Washing
ton. says that one Sunday morning
when Bishop Potter preached there
he sent word over to the White House
to invite Mr.. Mckinley to attend. and
that as soon as his little daughter.
Gladys, heard that the president
would sit In their pew she asked per-
mission to be allowed to sit next to
the president. The permission was
granted. and all during service Gladys
never took her eyes off him. When
the service was over and those In the
pew arose preparatory to the presi-
dents departure, she put her hand
out timidly and laid it on the presi.
dents coat sleeve to detain him a
minute then she said in a whisper of
anxiety:
"Mr. Mckinley. is 1t true that you
have given the order to shoot the poor
sentinel who fell asleep at his post
out in the Philippines? This is Christ.

HOW PERKINS SAW THE KING
California Senator Tells of His Meet.
ing with Oscar of Sweden, -


Senator Perkins OF California. who,
to quote his own words, is sailor by
profession, n merchant by necessity
and a politician by accident, has had
In his life more adventures than fall
within the experience Of an ordinary
man. Perhaps this Is because Senator
Perkins followed the sea for SO many
years. One OF Mr.. Perkins most In
teresting adventures was his meeting
with King Oscar Of Sweden and Nor
way.
IL was quite boy then" said the
senator, telling the story. Il had sail
ed In the good ship Luna from New
Orleans to Sweden with cargo Of cot
ton, and while the ship was In port
thought would Ike to see the royal
palace In Stockholm. One Sunday aft
ernoon, In company with sailor nam
ed Harry Branscombe. an English
man, we went up to the palace. Boy
like, we wanted to get into the grounds.
and so we crawled through n waste
pipe which ran through the walls
around the palace park. As soon as
we got Inside, however, We were ar
rested by the gendarmes, and as we
did not know n word OF Swedish we
were In sad plight.
presently" continued the senator,
"a party OF distinguished people came
along and seemed interested In our
trouble. One person In the party spoke
English. He asked us what we were
doing In the kings park. told him
that was an American boy, who
wanted to see the king and how the
king lived.
"'But don't you know, he said, that
you might be put into prison for tres
passingT
"'oh,' | said. 4 don't want TO hurt
the king. only want to see him.
81 am King Oscar was his reply
"And then" added Senator Perkins, IL
learned that | was really in the pres.
ence Of the monarch"
"What happened to you then?' asked
his listener.
.The king" he replied, "sent soldier
with us TO show us the palace, and We
had splendid time. But that wasn't
the sequel to the story. Thirty years
later. when I was governor OF Califor

TRAMP DOG EXPERT PERFORMER
Canine Wanders Into Training Quar-
ters and is Taught to Ride Pony.

"Zippe." the canine equestrian per.
former OF the Ringing circus. which
opens here Wednesday, was an un-
discovered genius until two months
ago. A sick tramp dog, the animal
followed sympathetic appearing
hostler into the ring barn at the win
ter quarters of the show at Baraboo,
Wis, looking for shelter.
Royal, the horse trainer. took 4
fancy to the dog, ana. with the assist
ance of the animal men. prescribed
for its mango. The animal proved,
when groomed, to be of spaniel blood.
The dog became favorite with Roy
al, and when the latter was putting
the ponies through the PAGES and
teaching them tricks, "Zippe' kept
near, and so enthusiastic did he be.
come at times that he would join the
ponies in their scamper and attempt
to Jump upon their backs.
One day Royal tied the dog on the
back of one of the ponies, thinking
to give 1t such fright that 1t would
stay out of the ring. When the ex'
ercise was begun "Zippe" seemed to
take great delight in the sport. The
harder the ponies ran the louder and
more delightfully."- did "zippe" voice his
sentiments. The next day the dog
took a firm seat, and, grasping the
shaggy name of his steed with his
teeth, went through the exercise like
a veteran.
The animal is now able to jumI
through hoops, mount and dismoun
with one leap, standing or running
and ride two ponies at once.-Chica

Mosquitoes and the Winds.

As rhe result of studies on New Jer-
sey mosquitoes last summer Professor
John B. Smith OF Rutgers college says
that not only will the insects travel
long distances from their breeding
place. but. on favorable evenings.
large swarms rise and are carried dur
Ing the night by winds. The direction
in which they go is often seaward.
Swarms have been met fifteen miles
from the shore. and they are common
five miles from shore. Migration OF
mosquitoes with the aid Of the winds
Professor Smith regards as OF much
Importance and as rendering the con-
troll OF the mosquito nuisance state
rather than n local affair. The ano-
phclcs mosquitoes continue to breed
long after frost has set In. and even a
covering of Ice on ponds is not fataI
to their larvn and pupG.

The New EnKIlah Sfampa.

The new stamp. which bears the ef.
fgy Of King Edward, has not been re.
ceived with much favor by his loyal
subjects. who regard 1t as being highly
inartlstic. One Of the queer customs
that prevail In England Is that the
heads of successive sovereigns on coins
and on stamps must face in opposite
ways, and the kings head on these
new stamps faces the same way as
did that OF his mother. Through some
seeming flaw In the plates also his
majesty carries on his forehead slash
which makes him look like a battle

Ia that an entirely new issue of stamps
must be made.

be Of the finest and best quality and
thoroughly incorporated into the but

working the butter should be allowed
to stand several hours, in order that
the salt may become dissolved and

BOUNTY ON ANIMALS.
Attorney General Hands Down an
Opinion Regarding Bounty.


The attorney general holds that
merchants or others buying pelts OF
animals killed for the bounty, cannot
secure the bounty by making affidav-
its that they caused to be killed
the animals for which they claim pay
ment from the fund provided for the
purpose.
Not only does the attorney general S
Office make this decision, but II In
forms w. G. Preuitt, secretary OF the
board of stock commissioners. that
steps will be taken to notify the
county authorities of the exact pro.
visions of the law governing boun'
ties. and thereby put a stop to a prac'
tice that offers an opportunity for
gross fraud.
II is held in the opinion that only
the man who fires the gun that kills
wolf or coyote can swear that he
killed the animal, and that only the
man who set trap or placed poison
can swear that he caused the death
of the animal. without previous
knowledge of the act.
Information has come to the Office
of the attorney general. In an indirect
manner, that great many bounty
claims have been made In cases
wherein the claimant knew nothing
of the matter except that the pelt:
were in his possession. The attorne,
general has learned even more, thai
in several cases fraud has been prac
ticed to obtain money from the state
bounty fund.
