Wanted to Know What They Were
Up To

Chief Justice Shaw, though very
rough in his manner, was exceedingly
considerate of the rights OF poor and
friendless persons. Sometimes persons
unacquainted with the ways of the
world would desire TO make their own
arguments or would in some way inter-
rupt the business of the court. The
chief justice commonly treated them
with great consideration.
One amusing incident happened quite
late in his life.
A rather dissipated lawyer who had
a case approaching on the docket one
day told his office boy to ''go over to
the supreme court and see what in the
hell they were doing" The court was
hearing a very important case in which
Mr.. Choate was on one side and Mr.
Curtis on the other. I he bar and the
courtroom were crowded with listeners.
AS Mr.. Curtis was in the midst OF his
argument the eye of the chief justice
caught sight of the young urchin, 10 or
II years old, with yellow trousers stuff
ed in his boots and with his cap on one
side of his head, gazing intently up at
him.
He said: "Stop moment Mr.. Cur
It's"
Mr.. Curtis stopped and there was a
profound silence as the audience saw the
audacious little fellow standing entirely
unconcerned.
what do you want, my boy?" said
the chief justice.
"Mr. 2. told me to come over here
and see what in the hell you was up
to" was the reply.
There was a dive at the unhappy
youth by three or four of the deputies
in attendance and roar of laughter
from the audience. The boy was eject
ed. But the gravity Of the old CHIEF
justice was not disturbed.

A kiOndyke Tragedy

Klondyke river is fed by numerous
soda springs and even the winters
cold fails to close them entirely. Walk
ing on the edge of the ice near the
shore, a miner slipped into six inches
of water In moment he was out and
Fastening to the brush hard by to light
Il fire before his feet froze. Rapidly he
cut a few fragments of wood with his
heavy pocket knife. But the unlighted
match dropped from his already chilled
fingers, for he had rashly removed his
mittens in order to use his knife with
more freedom. Then he lighted sec
ond and third and finally several at
one time, but either his haste or per-
haps sigh of the air caused them 10
fall in the snow. All this time the frost
was seizing his limbs, his body, his
heart, his mind. He turned to the fatal
mittens, which he never should have
taken Off, but his already frozen fingers
could only lift them from the ice where
they had fallen, and after vain at
tempt he buried them from him and
siroye once again to light a last match.
But it WAS too late.

A PIainsman,s Retort.

A year or so ago when President
Roosevelt was making trip through
the west, each town he passed through
made some demonstration in honor ot
the event. The citizens of one town
where the train schedule compelled
the President to remain eight or nine
hours, decided to make a holiday OF ii
when Mr. Roosevelt arrived. They
arranged series of speeches, horse
races, rope throwing and broncho bust
ing. The best talent OF the county side
was on hand, and each contributed his
share of the entertainment.
One of the COW boys was mounted on
an especially ill-tempered beast. He
caught the Presidents fancy on account
of his daring and ability. After doing
his stunt, he was introduced to the
chief executive, who complimented him
on his horsemanship, and inquired
"Do you ride all the timer"

A Chapter of Accidents

Our neighbor, Cashmere, had quite q
chapter OF accidents and mishaps last
week. Lee McManus had one Of hi,
hands badly lacerated in a saw at
Schmitten's saw mill, necessitating the
amputation OF one finger.
One day a team hitched to hack
with a boy and a woman in it ran away.
In attempting TO stop the team the
hack was overturned and the boy drag
ged about two hundred feet. No bones
were broken but he was badly bruised
all over. The woman was also bruised
but suffered less severely than the boy.
All the parties were from Wenatchee.

THE WAY TURNER TURNED

ard Democrat. AIlin
About Ten Years

In territorial days of 1885, the demo-
cratic candidate for governor of Wash
ington reached here with a commission,
issued by a republican president, as
judge of the district court, comprising
Lincoln, Douglas and Adams counties.
With change in the administration,
his term OF Office expired, and after sew
eral years unsuccessful Candidacy for
congress to supplant John L. Wilson,
he branched off with the silver craze
and was one of the principal actors in
the coventions at Ellensburg, where
fusion was accomplished by the popu-
lists, democrats and free silver republic
cans, who were successful in carrying
the state at the polls at the following
general election. When Turner was
chosen senator he announced that he
was complete convert to populisnf,
and there was no difference between
Cleveland democrat and a Mckinley
republican. His speeches denounciug
the late VIM. Mckinley, in which he
refers to the martyred president as
''the representative of brute force" and
"a man who recognized no law, human
or divine, that stood in the way of his
wishes" are pretty hard statements to
come from man who proposes to be-
come our chief magistrate. In the po-
litical turn-stile he has been known as
republican, free silver republican, poIs
ulist, Bryan democrat gold democrat
and all within few heeting years.
Anything to get there! The inconsist-
encies and selfhness of Dark and Dis
NAL George are being noticed by intel-
ligent voters. Ii this cold and clammy
man is made governor the people will
have cause to regret.-Adams County

The keepers in the Glen Island ZOO
lately tested the effect of laughter on
various beasts and birds. The keepers
wished to learn if animals are sensitive
to ridicule, says New York report.
They stood before the cage in which
Jack, the biggest lion, is confined and
laughed as if DR.. Depew were speaking
after dinner. The lion flew into a ter
rible rage and hurled himself against
the steel bars in the attempt to smash
them and tear to pieces the offenders.
Their cachination produced precisely
the same effect on the tigers. The
puma showed his teeth responsively, but
not in a laugh-he snarled angrily and
glared at the keepers as if to say: ''If
were out there you would laugh on the
other side of your faces"
When the keepers laughed at the big
monkeys those creatures huddled chat
tering In the corners of their cages. A
female monkey hid her face in her
hands and acted as if made ashamed by
the ridicule. The laughter had no ap-
preciable effect on the hippopotamus
or the alligator, whose hides are very
thick, of course. The cinnamon bear
climbed 10 the top of his tree trunk and
looked down disguste dly, as if he would
remark: I'm blessed if I see anything
funny"
The elephants trumpeted loudly when
they were laughed at,and a parrot used
language that might not be printed.
The only beast or bird that joined in
the laughter was the hyena, and, as
usual, he did not know what he was
laughing at

There is no fact of medical science
better established than that teaspoon
full of Peruna before each meal during
the winter season will absolutely pro-
tect person from catching cold. Now,
if this is true (and there is no doubt of
it), thousands of lives would be saved.

chronic catarrh prevented, by this
simple precaution within reach of ev-
cry one.
After a cold has been contracted a
teaspoonfull of Peruna every hour will
shortly cure it, leaving no trace of it
behind. After chronic catarrh has be.
come established, or the first stages oil
chronic bronchitis or consumption have
been reached, it will take much longer
to effect cure.
1t seems strange that as we'll known
and we'll established as these facts are
any one should neglect to profit by
them, and yet no doubt there are many
who pay little or no attention to them
