The Washington Correspond
ent in the State Journal in speak
ing of Congressman Kinkaid's
bill for homestead Of $40 acres
in the Sand Hill country says;
Congressman Kinkaid is en-
deavoring to devise some means
by which the cattle industry of
the Big Sixth district may be
encouraged and protected.
Knowing that nature designed
the sand hill country solely for
grazing and not for agriculture,
the judge seeks to afford an OPP
portunity to the owners of small
herds to get enough land upon
which to Craze them proitably.
Therefore, he has in contempla-
ton bill providing that home
stead entries in the sandhill
country may embrace $40 acres
of grazing land, upon proper
showing that the quality of the
land is such that a homesteader
could not derive from 100 acres
sustenance for himself and family.
Judge Kinkaid has discussed the
subject with officials of the in
terror department and those OF
the agricultural department.
Secretary Hitchcock did not com
nit himself to the plan but ask
ed the judge to submit authori-
ties showing that such bill
would not be class legislation;
and otherwise to present the
merits of the proposition with
proof that the people of Nebraska
would approve ofsuch a measure. y

"Now sir, said he, "darn you
don't cheap nor breath loud or
you are'a gone succor.' In five
minutes the men in pursuit were
seen but our nejghbor man was
chopping as demurely as saint
and laughing in his sleeve when
the men says:
"Have you seen a niger here
lately"
He said, eyes l saw one pass
not more than fifteen minutes
ago, he went that way pointing
right towards the wood pile, but
they thought he meant up the
road, but being a little fearfhl
that they might lose their prey
they said, 1--WE will search your
place"
All right but if YOU get into
my Darrell of cider in the cellar
YOU will have to pay dearly for it
! tell YOU"
After pretty good hunt and
finding nothing they went on and
the darby was taken back a few
miles to another station and sent
on by different route to Canada.
A day or two after that Mr..
Goats, the man of the wood pile
was telling my father about it
and in his enthusiasm he forgot
for moment that my father was
a straight old quaker, he said:
II tell you Uncle Joe that was
a d-u close call"
My father whose name was
Joseph said:
"Thee ought not to use such
language even if thee is in good
cause
SO he promised he would not
but he insisted with great We

i'll the wood pile which no one
doubted when they heard his
story, and this may be the origin
of the saying, there's niger in
the wood pile" at least there
seemed to be good ground for
such a saying to go forth.
This man Coats was an ardent
worker in the cause and sealed
his devotion by giving up his
life at Vicksburg. This reminds
me of another man who lived
near us. He was from Tennessee
and had the regular darby bronze

THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD.
ByDrC Pickett
CHAPTER "

NAAtAA 4 I'm W
Not only the men, but the
women also played a very impor-
tant part in this drama. Here is
an instance which shows not
only the quick wit but also the
great rscarcelul powers of the
woman mind.
At one time two runaway
slaves were tracked to Mr.. Collins
door by those engaged running
them down and for money de-
Ilivering them up to their cruel
masters. At the time when these
things occurred the ladies prided
themselves on the heighth Of
their feather beds and Of course
1T was no uncommon thing to see
two and some times1hree feather
beds on one bed stead.
So it was in this ease for Aunt
Katy was a superb housekeeper
and when those two slaves came
in closely pursued by the hunters
she placed them between the
leather ticks, spread up the bed
in nice shape and when the nun
ters came i'll She was standing by
The bed very busy cutting out a
dress, and the different pieces
were scattered over the bed. The
hunters seeing that there was no
one in the house, as they thought,
but a women who was more than
ordinarily polite, asked il they
could look the house over for
tugltlves. She said certainly
and if you find any you can take
them, for She did not want any
body about the house that was a
law breaker.
So they examined the property
in the house and i'll the outbuild-
ings and found no truants.
The bed was so plump and nice
that they never thought to look
there and soon left, after thank
ing Aunt Katy for her kindness,
and she feeling quite thankful
but for different reasons.
At one time there lived a man
one mile from my fathers farm
who was in the habit of saving
some things that he had not
learned from the preacher but
who believed i'll freedom for all
irrespective race, sex or color and
who could hide darkie as well
as anyone.
This man like everybody else
had a good big woodpille near
the kitchen door, on this par
ticular occasion the pile consisted
of poles some IS feet long and
were stood on end that they
might the more readily dry. In
the middle there was hollow
space where a man could stand
quite comfortably if he did not
have too large a bay window on
the front side Of his anatomy,
which was seldom the case with
eX-slaves owing to hard work and
little to eat. One day just as
our neighbor had finished his
dinner and stepped out to the
wood pile there hove in sight a
dark object which proved to be a
runaway SLAVE man, long, lanll
and hungry closely pursued by
his master and another man. He
had no way but to throw himself
ON our neighbors good or bad
will and take the consequences
which he did in a twinkle and
was slipped into the hollow of
the wood pile and the poles re-
