Putting Papa up a Tree.

"Pop," said little Willie, "do you know
anything of science?"
"Well, my boy" replied his father,
modestly, although am no scientist,
yet may safely say that I have given
some attention to matters scientific.
Why?"
"Oh, nothing, only thought I'd like to
ask you question"
my boy" said his father, confidently,
"put your question and I'll answer it.
Never hesitate in the pursuit of knowl-
edge"
"Well, pop, it's this: When you look
into mirror the left side of your face
appears to be the right side, and the right
side appears to be the left side, doesn't it?'
"Yes, son the mirror reverses things"
That's what I thought. Well, pop,
what I want to know is, if the mirror
reverses the right and left sides of the
face, why doesn't it reverse the top and
bottom of your face the same way?"
"H'mw said his father. IF you have
not anything better to do than think up
fool questions you'd better 60 to bed"

GERS came upon him while the bandit
was at dinner. Vasquez saw the off,
GERS enter the house and, knowing that
the doors were guarded, jumped
through q window Of the dining room.
He ran for the stable, where a horse
stood saddled, but a shot from one OF
the sherihf's posse stopped him with a
shattered leg. Throwing up his hands
in sign of surrender, he dragged him
self forward to meet his captors. To
them he said as they disarmed him:

The reign of Vasquez was over. His
band was broken and scattered. Vas
Quez was sent to a prison hospital,
from which he was taken and hanged
at San Jose on March 10, 1875.

upon the officer like a flash, stabbed
him to death and rushed from the
dance hail., He fed to the mines at
Sonora, where many Of his counrymen
had gone and which had already be-
come q favorite refuge for Mexican
outlaws.
In 1857 he was captured, but nothing
beyond horse stealing could be proved
against him he wac sent to the state
prison at San Quentin for five years.
On Aug. II, 1873, occurred one Of the
blacklist tragedies connected with Vas
quez's long career as criminal leader,
when be, with six companions, robbed
Snyders store at Tres Pinos. The store
was stage and post Office and supplied
a sparsely settled country on the road
from and to San Francisco and the
southern mines. Besides the store Tres
Pinos boasted small wooden hotel, q
stable for the stage teams and black
smith shop Why Vasquez and his fe+
lows wanted to sack this Insignificant
station does not seem clear unless 1t
was that the opportunity was offered
when the mood was on them.
At Z o'clock in the evening two Mexi-
cans arrived at the store, riding in
from the direction Of Panoche valley
and the New Idra mines. Dismountng,
they entered and engaged the clerk In
conversation. In q few minutes five
others and among them VasQuez rode
up. With no preliminary confusion and
apparently acting in accordance with a
prearranged plan the leader and two Of
bis companions took up their stations
outside to command the road while the
others joined the two already in the
store.
There were half a dozen men in the
store-teamsters, miners and the clerk,
John Utzerath-when quick transfor-
nation scene was enacted by the four
Mexicans. From idle gossips they
turned suddenly to fierce, we'll armed
desperadoes, brandishing guns and or
dering the Americans to throw away
their arms and lie down on the floor to
be bound. There was no question Of
resisting. The six men obeyed the order
promptly.
While the four robbers on the inside
were cutting the store in systematic
fashion those on guard outside were
alert and active. A Portuguese sheep
herder named Martin came up to the
store. Vasquez saw his approach and
called out to him in English to stop.
But Martin could not understand and,
knowing nothing Of the business going
forward in the store, started to enter.
The outlaw leaders second warning
was a pistol shot, and the poor, igno-
rant sheep herder fell with bullet in
his brain. a Mexican from within
came to the door to know why the shot
had been fired, but Vasquez waved him
back, calling out that it was nothing.
A freight teamster named Haley was
the next to arrive. AS he drove in front
Of the store and climbed down from
his wagon Vasquez came suddenly up
on him and ordered him, with a curse,
to lie down and be tied. But the order
did not appeal to Haley's reason. he
began to argue the point, and the hot
blooded bandit swung the butt Of his
big pistol against the teamsters head,
bringing him down in senseless lump.

Tomb Of Zachary Taylor.

~. Taylor. Died 1880"
That is the inscription on the tomb OF
Zachary Taylor, twelfth president Of the
United States.
A correspondent who recently visited
the tomb of "Old Rough and Ready" says
for over half century it has lacked the
care of kindly hand and is fast falling
into decay.
The tomb lies five miles from Louis
vile and is off the road. Ivy riots over
the weatherbeaten blocks of granite. The
fastenings on the door are red with rust.
So far as is known no key has turned the
lock for fifty years. Visitors are rare. 1t
is doubtful if half dozen tourists visit
the tomb during twelvemonth.
And this neglected spot is the last rest
ing place of the hero of the Black Hawk
and Florida Wars. Here is the dust of
the great soldier who, with 1000 American
rifemen drove Santa Anna at Buena Vista.
Here are the remains of the American
Cortez and president of the United States.
He who conquered the swamps and Ever
glades of Florida, and made Mexico sur
render is forgotten by his countrymen.
Not one in 10000 knows the place of his
sepulchre.
The plaintive words of Rip Van Winkle
are appropriate: "How soon we are for
gotten when we're gone!"

The frog kindly complied with. the

lay stretched along the ground.
"Now," observed the frog, 81 suppose

thing better in sight"
Thereupon he ate the frog.
The moral of this, my dears, is thai
there is more than one kind Of skin game

Two years before the great mortgage
death, foreclosed upon him he was the
owner of a yellow dog.
This dog had been tramp, but one day
while paying an informal call atthe farm
I It had evidently discovered in Mr.. Penny
some agreeable qualities that had escaped
sthe observation of his neighhors and
promptly adopted him. The process of
getting something for nothing, even in
the case of a yellow dog, invariably
appealed with power to farmer Penny,
and he graciously permitted himself to
be adopted.
. In few months the yellow dog was
the talk of the neighborhood. He worri-
ed ducks, killed chickens, stampeded
calves and even throttled sheep.

was the hearty reply.

Penny, 'this bein' Christmas I thought
I'd remember ye. Known ye was power

''Thank you, sir; thank you," cried the

FRANK HARVEY TO
RUN FOR SENATOR
ANNOUNCED LAST NIGHT AT THE
FIFTH DISTRICT CAUCUS THAT
HE WOULD NOT WITHDRAW.

Frank Harvey will make the senate
rial fight on the Democratic ticket. He
made this announcement last night at
the caucus of the Fifth District dele
gates a d also notified the Inter-Island
Com any officials today of his inten-
ton to remain in the field and fight for
election to the legislature.
From the development that events
took yesterday afternoon, it looked very
much as if the Democratic legislative
ticket had received the blow that al
most killed father. The Inter-Island
officials declined to consent to Harvey
as an employee, running for senator.
Business and politics eemed to clash.
Harvey took the matter under consider
alton when informed by the committee
of Democrats who had discussed the
situation with his employers, and an
nounced that he would decide in time
to announce mis- definite decision at the
caucus of his district. He decided to
run and so announced himself amid
cheers of the delegates.
The delegates then caucused on
names to be placed on the ticket at the
convention next Saturday. The fol-
lowing were selected: John Emmeluth,
r.. II. Trent, d. Damien, David Kupi-
hea, Jesse Makainai and Kamahu. II
had been decided to place only four
names on the ticket in order that the
delegates from the outside precincts
would have two places to fill. Those
delegates did not attend the caucus SC
it was thought far to give them
chance of making two nominees. A tie
vote between Damien and Trent Oc-
Cured. 1t is not unlikely that Da-
mien will withdraw.
