Heartless Russian Jest.

A young Russian Jew was obliged
10 go to the war in Manchuria. At
first the father got letters from him
regularly, but presently they ceased.
One day the father was called to the
police headquarters where he was
told there was telegram regarding
his son, but that he would have to
pay so roubles to get it. He did
rot have the money, and it took him
some time to collect it from his
friends. When he finally opened
the telegram he found it contained
re announcement of his sons death.

ANYTHING FOR A BED.

Stranded Mayor More Than Willing

Mayor Smith of st. Paul is perhaps
the only chief magistrate of an Ameri-

arrest him in order that he might get

trip up Brainerd way, and one day
went over to the neighborhood of a
little place named Osakis. In the
evening he went to the village, but
found that the one little hotel was full
to overlooking. Nor could he find a

out the town marshal and asked to be
arrested; but the man with the star
refused, and the worn and weary may

Bob Grom was the best known
pioneer in Central Arizona. The old
man was more than so years old when
he died, a few years ago, and he had
been in the territory so long that no.
body knew when he came. He spent
a fortune in locating mining claims
in the central part of the territory,
but never realized anything from
them. A short time after his death
the value of his claims was discov-
cred. Grom was a ranchman as well
mining man, and he was so &C.
centric that people who knew him
never tire of telling about their ex-
perience with him. Once he was
caught out in a binding rainstorm-
Darkness overlook him and his COM

sulphur matches on the dogs tail I'M

When Mr.. Pence awo1xe about three

OF rock lowered almost over his
head. In the Light of the nascent
moon, the SHARK seemed to rest
in the center of a vast amphitheater
of beetling rocks and crags Here
and there he could make out the
form of a palm, and to his ears
came the distinct sound of falling
water, as of a cascade. To the east
the cliffs threw long shadow over
the lake in which the yacht was an
chored. The moon had just scaled
the highest peak, and the effect was
of indescribable beauty. But the ST.

True to their lights fell nears
Question not right nor wrong,
Question not gain nor loss,
Brothers in death they lie
Under the starry cross.

Endlessly meath the sun;
When the great silence falls
All are in rest one.

Tears that in life there Is
No happy brotherhood!
Peace to the quiet dead!

Brothers in hope they wait
