Castle Stewart.

Castle Stewart.
The household of Senator
Stewart has long been dis,
tinguished for IT'S turbulence.
IL there any cause fm won
der? The late Mrs. Stewart
was n daughter OF that Hen-
ry s Foote who beat Jeffer-
son Da Wis in the canvass for
Gov. of Miss, and.W no was
for many years Senator from
that state. During the war
he was II pseudo d-UniOn-man
and in favor OF accepting the
terms offered by Lincoln in
'63 and 64. He had d most
violent temper and was ter
rible in his fits of anger. He
fought at least six dueIs n'and
he and Thomas II. Benton
had a knock down on the
floor of the Senate. Two OF
his duels were with the mag
netic orator, 5. 5. PreDtiss
and the story is told that in
one of them Prentiss looked
up a tree where some boys
had climbed to see the fight
and sang out "take care
boys, better come down.
F0Ote is shooting wild this
morning!' toote was quick
on the trigger, ready to fight
any body with or without
cause and is reported TO
haye sent at least a dozen
challenges that were not ac-
cepted. So the troubles in
the Stewart Castle" were
perhaps hereditary.

AN OLD HUNTER's ADVICE.
A Few Good Things for the Novice %
Remember.

Remember.
Here n tho advice an old hunter
gives TO those who may come Into
unexpected contact with bad animals:
IF you are cornered by q snake.
stand motionless and he will never
bite.
IF . vicious dog attacks you. show
him q knife or some similar instru.
ncnt and he will keep out Of reach.
A dog can never learn the deadli.
ness Of q revolver or q gun. but un.
less he has the rabies. he knows how
to respect q knife.
IF q swarm OF wild bees attacks
you. stand motionless and let out all
your breath. Then only few Of the
swarm will sting"
This advice should be reversed at
sea. A man who is swimming In
shark.infested waters Is safe as long
as he kicks about and makes q great
deal Of noise. The shark Is too timid
to approach anything that looks as II
Il meant to nght.

Lacking material from which to

fearsome.s -.
But nobody is scared. The dreamer
alone is disturbed by his nightmare.

hear and wonder at the awakening
shrieks of the retching of Indigestion.

The country is not going to the

the United States have no desire to
start an empire upon the ruins of their
republic. They will not even listen
