Knudsen said the House would put

In the midst of the argument the
House adjourned, an attempt to take
a recess until 2 p. m. having been voted
down. Again it was the Kumalae-Ka-

At the little village of Pilot Oak,

be called a woman, since she Is only
eighteen years OF age. For more
than a year she has been doing the
work OF farrier aud blacksmith In
her fathers shop at Pilot Oak, and
does not seem, 1t Is said. to regard
her occupation as unusual for one OF
her sex. Although wonderfully
strong and agile, Miss Medlin Is de-
cidedly pretty and we'll formed. Her
hands have grip that an athlete
would envy, but they are neither
coarse nor large. She has Jet black
hair and dancing black eyes.
Miss Medlin. II Is said, can shoe a
horse or weld tire with care aud
dexterity and has thoroughly master
ed her business In every detail. In
addition to her other accomplishments
she can paint and stripe a buggy
equal to any carriage painter and can
go into the kitchen and prepare a
meal that would tempt the appetite Of
the most confirmed dyspeptic. Miss
Medlin Is the daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Sam Mediin. of Pilot Oak, and
comes OF good family. She bagsn

Notwithstanding the life she follows,

Not Enough TO Quarter.

Senator Tillman tells of an old
darksy In his employ that he once
permitted to make use Of certain land
for farming purposes on condition
that the darkey should give to the
Senator one fourth of the crop raised.
At the harvesting of the crop the
Senator was amazed to find that the
darkey had not kept his part of the
agreement for, while he hawled away
three wagon loads OF produce, he had
not sent single one to the Senator's
barn. Tillmau called the negro's at
tention to the fact that he had taken
the entire crop, asking.
"Now, how's that, Zeb? Wasn't /
to receive a fourth of the crop1"
"You was, Massa Tillman, you
was" excitedly exclaimed the daikey
'but dere's oplv three loads, sab,
