hereafter will perform only such SER
vice in that capacity as he is called
upon to attend to by executive o-der'
For some years, in fact ever since the

stated of 81 a day. During the the
last year he has been engaged in In
speeding the volunteer troops OF the

completed, and is about ready to make
his report.
Gov. Gambler informed him that he
would not hereafter be needed regular

by executive order whenever it is nee
essary. and he will hereafter receive
81 day for only the days on which he
is employ ed under such order. This, OF
course, will cut his pay down to a mini
mum, and it may be that he will leave
the service of the state.

Woman is often referred to by man
as doubling his joys and halving his
sorrows" That may be compliment
ary but it would seem to be rather
hard on the woman. For in plain
terms it means that where things are
going we'll with the man his wife
makes them 90 better. But when
things are going i'll with him he ex-
poets the wife to share half his bur-
den. And there's more truth than
poetry in this presentation of mascu-
line selfshness. Men don't appreci-
ate the fact that the strain of m )ther-
hood alone is a burden bigger than
all the loads that rest upon male
shoulders. They see the wife grow
thin, pale, nervous and worn without
a thought that she is over-burdened.
Among the pleasant letters received
by DR.. Pierce are those from husbands
who have walked up before it was too
late to the crushing burdens laid upon
the wife. and in the search for help
have found in DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription restorative which has
given back TO the mother the health
of the maiden and the maiden's hap
piness. "FavOrite Prescription" al
ways helps, and almost always cures.
1t has perfectly cured ninety-eight out
of every hundred women who have
used it when affiic ted with diseases
peculiar to women.

COWBOYS RIDE FOR LIFE.
Thrilling Experience of lanes Evans
on a Ranch In Arizona.

For nearly an hour the other day
James Evans, a cowpuncher with the
tx Bar L" outfit in the Four Peaks
country, had an experience the like OF
which has come TO few men, says q
Phenix (Ariz.) dispatch to the Chicago
Inter Ocean. Evans, who holds the
steer tying championship Of the north
eastern part Of the territory, was in
charge of the roundup and, with five
other punchers, was putting 1900 cat
tie into Sunfower valley.
While camped for the night on high
mesa, ending abruptly with a sheer
drop Of 200 feet, less than eleven miles
to Ae south, great storm swept
through the mountains. The herd was
frightened by the lightning and started
in a wild stampede, headed for the
south. Evans and his men mounted
hurriedly aud, circling to the front OF
the maddened mass, tried to turn 1t to
the east and swing it back into place.
vainly tried to stop and turn the swift
" rushing crush Of hoofs and horns.
Evans horse lost his footing and went
down in a heap, one front leg in a
gopher hole. The horse of Shorty" Da-
Wis, close behind, stumbled over Evans
horse, and its rider was badly hurt.
His horse was up and off in a moment.
and Evans mount was useless, with q
broken leg.
Fifty yards away came the herd, and
a sharp fash Of lightning showed Ev-
ans the futility Of attempted escape by
either side, the swiftly moving sea of
steers reaching for a hundred yards
each way. Unable to arouse Davis and
unwilling to leave his disabled COM
rade, Evans took his two six shooters
and those of Davis and emptied them
into the center of the herd, cutting
breach in the front of the mass. Then,
throwing the inanimate form of Davis
over his shoulder, he awaited his op-
portunity. 1t came in a second, and as
one Of the steers brushed by Evans
leaped alongside. With one movement
he put the body of Davis across the
shoulders of the brute and like flash
got on himself The frantic animal
leaped and bucked and side jumped;
but, with his long legs wrapped tight
ly around the body of his boiling, buck
ing mount, Evans drove his spurs deep
in and held himself and Davis in place.
With it's double load, the steer, wild
with rage and fright, rapidly left the
herd and, veering to the right in fu-
rious gallop, carried his riders out Of
the path. of the stampede. Out Of dan
ger, Evans, totally exhausted, rolled
of the back of the steer, and a half
hour later when his cowboys turned
the herd at the brink of the canyons
rim and rode back to look for the fore
man and Davis they found them both
unconscious. while the weary steer.
with his sides covered with blood from
Evans spurs, lay exhausted short
distance away.
The tx Bar L" outfit has ordered a
medal for Evans, and there is one
steer on that ranch pensioned for his
lifetime on the best alfalfa in the
valley

1t must be confessed that the bust

accomplished much, has not been the
factor that it might have been. The
fact that Hon. j. P. Conner, the presi-
dent of the association, has been in
Washington much of the time has been
a deterrent bat even without him
more could have been accomplished
than has been done.
On Tuesday evening the annual cleo
ton OF officers was held and it became
apparent that the younger element
was bound to take q strong hand in
the affairs of the association. A quiet
caucus was held the night before and
during the day there were number of
new members enrolled and in the even

| but few OF whom were on the old board
So far as we have heard there is moth
ing but commentator for this action
either upon the part of the old direc-
tors or the other business men,
All the interest at stake is for the
pushing OF Denison and it's interests
and the feeling is general that it is a
good sign that the young men are TAX

is as follows: c. G. Kemming, T. j..

that the action taken last night assures

will fully meet the expectations O

most artistic decorator in Denisou and
he kindly volunteered to assist in maxi

Just as he had about finished his work
he was mounted on high ladder drap-

called to the man holding the ladder
to see if the flags were straight and
the man let go of the ladder which
slipped and came down with crash.
Otto was fortunate that he was not
more severely hurt but it is bad
enough as it is as he will be laid up for
month or more. Something should
be done by the citizens to see that he
does not lose anything on account of
his willingness to contribute his share
toward making the reception success.
Later. We learn that Otto also suf-
fered an internal injury. The balance
of the sum subscribed for the recep-
tion amounting to $18, has been de-
voted to paying the expenses of his i'll.
