IN PIANO BOX
CURIOUS HOME OF FISHERMAN
NEAR BALTIMORE.
He Prefers Proximity to the Breezes
of the Ocean to Confinement in a
Hot, Stuty House-Says He Is
Perfectly Happy.

Perhaps the %stranges, place Of
abode for a human being has Just
been discovered in Baltimore. 1t is
a piano box. located on a branch OF
the Chesapeake Bay, and is occupied
by James Bailey. a wooden-leggcd fish
erman. There are several boxes on
the side of the river, all, with the
exception of the one occupied by
Bailey, being used as lockers by fish
ermen who live in the vicinity. The
box in which Bailey lives is made
of rough boards, and was once the
home of an upright piano. 1t is about
6 feet in length. 3 feet wide and a
little owe ) feet high. 1t is known as
No. 2,5Ol.' and has beef used by
Bailey for the last fourteen years.
From the first of February until the
last Of November he eats, sleeps and
lounges in this box. deserving 1t only
when the winds which sweep over the
river make it uninhabitable even for
an animal.
The old fisherman has never known
n day of sickness. and says that he is
perfectly happy. reports a writer in
the New York Herald. Though he has
several children living in Baltimore,
all of whom are anxious and willing
for him to spend his declining days
at their homes. Bailey stoutly re,
fuses all invitations. prcferring to
end his days in his mansion" by the
river.
A mattress and several bed cover
ings hide the bottom. Along the
sides are two shelves. on which are
ranged bits of fishing tackle, a tea
pot. a coffee urn, a bottle of milk,
knives, forks and cooking utensils.
Around the sides are his clothes,
neatly hung on hooks. At II end
is a lighted lantern. On the whole,
the place looks extremely coy and
comfortable

"Ya-as. It's a little cold in winter,

THE WAY TO WIN.

1t is neither dignified nor profitable
to cry over political split milk, to say
Il told you So" nor to descant on what
might have been" 1t IS a character
istic of backwoods politics to seize upon
the c%onsoling features of a campaign
which has in part gone wrong, eXagge
rate their importance. II say thai
these brands were snatched from the
burning because the tremendous in
fuence Of an individual or newspaper
was exerted in the right direction at
the critical moment. The characters
tic is one which city orators and edi,
tors should not cultivate. If they do
they become objects Of ridicule in the
large and respectable communities"
in which they live.
The truth is that however it may
have been in the past elections are not
now won or lost in large cities mainly
through the influence of any one pub
lie speaker or newspaper. The voters
do most Of their own thinking. They
do not take as gospel truth the fulsome
pratse bestowed on one candidate or
the unstinted abuse showered on others.

The Hereford association, whose
ranch is near Cheyenne, has just turn
ed off it's annual calf crop, Mr.. Powell
of Texas being the purchaser. The
bunch numbered six hundred beauti-
full whitefaces and the price was $75
per head. Wyoming ranchmen who
can sell their annual product for $45,-
900 should be we'll satisfied. But this
is not all. The association retains
eighty of the pick of the herd. which
are probably worth not less than $3.50
each, or $12, 900. Mr.. Powell made an
offer of $500 each for ten heifers to
be picked from the yearlings at the
ranch, but Mr.. McUlvan declined the
offer. When the present owners took
charge of the ranch the meadows
yielded lis tons of hay. Without ad-
ditional water, the yield has been in
creased to 600 tons. All known kinds
of grasses are raised in the Hereford
meadows, which are seeded and cult
waited every year. Wyoming ranch,
men can learn much by studying the
methods in vogue at the Hereford
ranch. The association is composed
of Henry Altman, John McUlvan and

Hearts Of Old Associates.
There is a movement on foot for
collecting money to be used as a char
ity fund for Calamity Jane, who is
now in the country that lies around
Yellowstone park, says the Butte In

"A move was recently started over
our way to have Jane removed to the

man, and she fatty refused to go. |

doing so and l am In favor of collect

Think Of the many kindly acts she
has lone for others when she had
means. Why, it is a shame to even
allow the necessity for such a sug-
gestion as sending her to a poorhouse.
Calamity Jane is a pioneer. In the
early days she was n of the best
known characters in the west. No
one came in contact with her who did
not feel the benefit of her kindly acts
and encouragement. Just now she Is
over in the Yellowstone country try

But the successful day of Calamity
Jane is past. Her books no longer
sell well. Time was when tourists
considered it an honor to buy James
books and it was considered a lack
Of progressiveness to make a trip west

souvenirs.
Nov all is different. The old-tim.
ers. many of them, have died. and the
younger generation coming up is too
busy to pay heed to this woman who
helped blaze the way of the pioneer.
She now has no way of making a live
