HOSPITALITY IN THE HILLS.
Despite Pinching Proverty the Stran-
ger Is Not Allowed to 10
Away Thirsty.

In the hill country of northern Vir'
ginia a tourist who was making a Ions
trip on horseback halted one noon be
fore a log house which he at first took
to be a stable. An old man was seated
ON a log near the door. An emaciated
mule stood with its head halfway in
side the window. No smoke issued
from the tumDledown chimney, re
lates Youths Companion.
The tourist made inquiry concerning
the mountain roads and was on the
point of asking if he could get a meal
for himself and horse when the owner
of the shanty said: stranger, I'd
like mighty well to invite We to dinner
but l reckon We wouldn't relish cold
hoecake and green's"
The rider was about to say anything
would be acceptable, when the old man
continued:
I'D like to feed that horse O. yourn.
but my old mule there's got to browse
mighty fine to keep on her legs this
fall"
The stranger explained that he
would be glad to pay for anything
that could be obtained.
"'Tain't that" returned the other,
reproachfully. "Ye don't think that
I'd take anything from a guest? But
well, fact is we amt been gettin
on as well as we might lately. The ole
woman's down with rheumatic and
Sal, she's over the ridge for a spell
and things amt just ready for com
pany, as we might cay"
1t was easy to see that bis pride
was putting the best possible face upon
a p%inching poverty. The rider gath
cred up his reins and, making light of
his needs. rendered a cigar.
That touched the old man. He
turned the gift over and over, looked
up and down the road, from the rider
to the house and then back to the
rider again. Then he seized the mans
bootleg and exclaimed:
Stranger, I'm poor and way down,
I'll own up! l can't feed we nor warm
We nor gin We so much as a Whit O.
smoke, but if we don't git down often
that horse and come over to the spring
and have some water with me I'll
never forgive We on the airtll."

CRAZE UNDERWATER
When Heritage Is Scant in Australia
the Animals Dip Into Shallow
Pools for Weeds.

While on a cattle station in western
Australia Mr.. Henry Taunton had an OPP
portunity of seeing a remarkable in
stance of the way in which animals can
adapt themselves to their surroundings.
He describes it in "Australind."
On the upper reaches of the river there
was a large pool just fordable at most
times, but in a dry season very low.
Among the horses making their run IN
the vicinity of this pool, and old mare
and a bevy OF foals and yearlings used
to come down every day in the long, dry
summer, when the heritage was scant
and scorched into dryness. They waded
into the pool until the water nearly
reached they heads, and stood there for
hours, diving to the bottom for a mouth
full Of s~ucculent weeds, which they
chewed at leisure with their dripping
heads above the water.
The first time l witnessed this strange
sight was during a dry season when
was riding with the overseer in search OF
some strayed stock. AS we approached
the pool, my companion bade me keep
QulcI IL L uCoilCu W oCO oOhOIhihS IVA
worth looking at. AS we rode quietly
up to the pool l saw a group Of horses
standing in the water, and disappearing
from time to time as they ducked their
heads below the surface. My wonder
was soon at an enc when l saw n OF
their heads suddenly come out with a
mouthful of dripping weeds. No sooner
was this mouthful disposed of than the
head disappeared in search of another.
The overseer told me that during a
long drought some five or six years prev
ious, when hardly a vestige of feed was
left on the run, and bush fires had laid
bare the sand-plains, the old mare had
discovered that there was plenty OF
luscious feed at the bottom of the pools,
which could be procured by diving for
it; and having once put her discovery
into practice, she continued to do out OF
| preference what she had been driven to
do by necessity.
The several generations of foals which
she had reared had all followed her ex-
| ample, although none of the full-grown
| horses had Joined the amphibious group.
Here, then, seemed to be a new variety
of horse in evolution which, if left undis-
turbed, might breed and separate from
the rum, perhaps to survive through
droughts severe enough to exterminate
all others.

Hon. Champ Clark, permanent chair
man of the democratic national con-
vention, upon assuming the chair made
a speech full of vigor and eloquence, or
which we herewith give the substance:
Tn his haste, King David said that
all men are liars. Had he been in Chica-
go while Senator Henry Cabot Lodge
was reading the republican platform he
would, nc doubt. have pronounced the
same opinion more leisurely, for surely
there never was more mendacity packed
into the same space in n ocume
%purporting to be in a grave state paper.
Shakespeare says:
just.
And he but naked, though locked up In
steel,
Whose conscience with injustice is cor
rupted.
"In the impending conflict our quarrel
is just and we are in the right beyond
all cavil.
ITO state it in a general way, our con-
tention is that the government shall be
restored to the democratic-republican
basis on which the fathers of the re-
public intended it to rest and shall be
made once more a government OF the
people. by the people, and for the people,
instead of a government of the classes,
by the classes. and for the classes.
ITO state it with more particularly,
we insist that exorbitant taxation shall
be reduced to just and reasonable rates;
that ~extravagances in appropriations
shall cease: that economy shall prevail
in all the transactions of the govern
ment; that all the departments shall be
thoroughly investigated from top to
bottom by congressional committees;
that all e~vildoers, of whatever degree.
shall be driven from the public service
and properly punished; that the trusts
shall be proceeded against by ind1ct-
ment as are common and smaller Grim
fnals; that the constitution accom-
panies the American flag into our new
possessions.

THE ONE GREAT ISSUE.
Mr.. Hearst's Spokesman Asks Equal
Rights for All.

Hon. D. M. Delmas, of California, who
presented the name of William r. Hearst
to the convention, gave the following
outline of what he considers the great
issue of the coming campaign:
1T has been said, and truly said, that
no campaign yer decides more that Il
issue. What, then, is the issue which
divides to-day the democratic and repub-
lican parties? What is the fundamental
principle up which they are in antagon-
ism? What is the essential thing which
democracy stands for and which republic
canism a~ntagonizes? Is it a question
of tariffs or of tariff revision? A
question of standards of money? Aques-
ton of regulating the currency or con-
trolling the banks? A question of ex-
pansion or Imperialism? No. Important
as these are, the question is greater han
any or all of these. 1t includes them
all, it is true, but it includes much more.
1t is a question which touches the very
foundations of our institutions and
strikes at the very existence OF our sov-
eminent. Let euphemistic babblers
gloss it over as they may; let trimniers
who shift their sail to every political
breeze that blows, evade it as they can;
let time servers who usurp the name OF
democracy affect to sheer at 1t as they
will, still the question which confronts
the American people to-day-which las
confronted them with ever-growing In
~sistence since the civil warts whether
this government shall be carried on for
the benefit of the people, and of the
whole people, or whether it shall be ma
nipulated for the benefit of a privileged
class-whether it's great departments,
legislative, executive and judicial, shalt
be perpetuated for the protection of the
equal rights of all, or whether they shall
be perverted into the plastic instruments
of s%yndicated capital"
