An Enjoyable Occasion.
Editor The Journal:

Editor The journal:
The farmers of the Mayhan set
Element enjoyed an old-fashioned
fish-fry at Berkeley on Black river
Saturday. The writer arrived on
the ground about 10 o'clock and
found a crowd of SO persons. The
ladies were then frying fish, and
about II o'clock the tables we're
spread about 40 feet in length.
About bushel of fish was piled
on them, besides an immense
quantity of other edibles carried
from home. OF all the eating of
fish that ever took place, it was
done then and there.
don't think | ever saw as much
fish eaten by one man as Bennett
Miachels eat. Rube Broils eat ev-
erything off the table within reach
of him and then moved over to
another place and eat everything
in reach. But Will Neal had to
look at his new wife so much |
don't think he eat enough. If
Harry Mayhan had time to speak
from the time he sat down until he
got up, | didn't hear him; and /
had to raise Tom Magness from
the table with my own hands. AT
ter eating every bite it looked like
he could eat, Tom Duff took his
hook and line and went to the riy-
err, dog like, to catch more fish, but
as good luck would have it, he
never got a nibble.
Alec Bailey isn't much of a hand
to ask any one to go home with
him, but as we were all full and
had plenty left over for supper,
Alec asked the whole crowd to GO
home with him.
After listening to few yarns
from one and another for awhile,
we all loaded up and left for home.
No accidents happened during
the day, except that Mr.. Allen fell
out of the wagon on the way home,
being a little overloaded with fish,
but was not seriously hurt.
Frank Gregory furnished music
for the occasion.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Our Great System of Free Schools
is the BuIwark of American Lib
erty and Good Citizenship.

Throughout this broad land the
public schools are to-day the CEN
ter of attraction. Each morning
if one could look down upon the
plains and valleys of this country
he could see the millions of young
boys and girls with book-satchel
and lunch basket trudging along
towards the country school-house.
These children are the men and
women of the future. Is it any
wonder, then, that the school
house is the present center of at
traction to the American peoples
Fond parents watch over their
children with tender care and af-
lection until they reach the proper
age to receive a special training
a training that may only be OBJ
tanned in the public schools. Then
the children are given over to Oft
times poorly paid but patient
teachers who complete the mental
training that was begun by father
and mother.
In Americas public schools
+6o,n - no contac;o,;en, no ra,, L
no aristocracy-there all children
are on n footing of equality, and
each one is offered an opportunity
to develop the mind in a manner
not equaled in any other country
of the world. Any child that is
deprived of q public school train
ING in this country is kept from
acquiring liberal education that
comes from intermingling with all
sorts of American boys and girls.
Possibly there are some parents
who do not realize the full value
Of public school education for
their children, and who do not
take advantage of the opportunity
offered by the free schools to equip
their boys and girls for life's siren
uous struggle. Let us hope that
there are few such parents, and
upon them we bestow our pity. No
parents should for any reason de-
prive their children of the training
and discipline to be acquired by
attending the public schools whose
sterling precepts are both shield
and sword in life's great battle.
The public schools should be the
pride and should have the encour-
agement of every citizen of this
republic, and every one should do
all in his power to foster and inn
prove Americas great and nation
al system of free education which
teaches our children practical and
positive knowledge, and at the
same time imbues their minds with
an unfaltering love and loyalty to
our flag and our country.

The Day of the Plow
CHAPTER XIII.
The End Of the Trail.


The Cottage Hotel of Ellisville was,
singularly enough. in its palmy days
conducted by woman, and a very
good woman she was. 1t was perhaps
an error in judgment which led the
husband of this woman to undertake
the establishment of hotel at such a
place and such time, but he tastened
to repair his fault by amiably dying.
The widow, a large woman, of great
kindness OF heart and a certain skill
in the care Of gunshot wounds, fell
heiress to the business. carried 1t on
and made success of it. All these
wild range men who came roistering
up the Trail loved this large and
kind old lady, and she called them all
her boys" watching over the wild
brood as hen does over her chickens.
She fed them and comforted them,
nursed them and buried them, always
new ones coming to take the places Of
those who were gone. Chief mourner
at over threescore funerals, neverthe-
less was Mother Daly's voice always
for peace and decorum; and what
good she did may one day be discover
ed when the spurred and booted dead
shall rise.
There was yet no key to the Cottage
bar when there came the unbelievable
word that there was no longer a buff
falo to be found anywhere on the
range, and that the Indians were gone,
beaten, herded up forever. Far to the
north, 1t was declared, there wero men
coming in on the COW range who had
silver-mounted guns, who wore gold
and jewels and who brought with
them saddles without horns! 1t was
said. however, that these new men
wanted to buy cows, so cows were
taken to them.
Mother DAILY looked upon this, and
1t was well. She understood her old
boys and loved them. She was glad
the world was full Of them. She look
ed out over the wide, wind-swept
plains, along the big chutes full of bel
lowing beeves, at the wide corral with
its scores Of saddled Nemeses, and she
was calm and happy. 1t was a good
ly world.
1t was upon one day that Mother
DAILY looked out opon her world; upon
the next day she looked again. and all
the world was changed. Far as the
eye could reach, the long and dusty
roadway Of the cows lay silent, with
its dust unstirred. Far, very far of.
there was approaching a little band
of strange, small, bleating. woolly
creatures. to whose driver Mother
DAILY refused bed and board. The cat
tie chutes were silent, the corral was
empty. At the Cottage bar the keeper
had at last found key to the door.
Up and down the Trail, east and west
of the Trail. all was quiet, bare and
desolate. At some signal-some sig
nal written on the sky-all the old
life Of Ellisville had taken up its jour.
ney into a farther land. into another
day. The cowman, the railroad man
and the gambling man had gone, leav-
ing behind them the wide and we'll.
perforated Cottage. the graveyard
with It's double street. the cattle
chutes with well-worn hairy walls.

WAY OF RUSSIAN OFFICIALS.
Remarkably Proficient in the Seienc4 .
Of "Graftinq."

OF 9TdItIU9.
A story which illustrates the
methods of Russian officials is told by
traveller recently returned from the
Far East. In an important town in
Siberia there is solitary member OF
the Anglo-Saxon race who has estab-
lished a successful business, despite
the restrictions imposed upon him.
Periodically. however, he is reminded
that he is there only on sufferance by
the receipt of letter form the all
powerful governor, which reads some
thing like this: Dear Sir: 1t is
proposed to raise a monument to the
beloved memory of the late emperor
and knowing how deeply interested
you are in all that affects the peo-
pie among whom you live, have ven-
tured to put down your name for a
thousand rubles. Please remit the
amount as early as possible" At one
time the monument is to an emperor,
another time to national poet, or a
historian or general. Needless to
say, the proposals never get beyond
the committee stage-the governor
constituting the committee. The de-
mands are simply a polite form of
blackmail, of which the merchant is
well aware, but they must be met,
otherwise he would not be allowed to
remain in the place.-Leslie's Weekly.

Fast Time Around tho Horn.

I. w. Lyon of Englewood. N. !.
writes Of a voyage he made to San
Francisco in 1851 on the famous clip.
per ship Flying Cloud. The ship was
commanded by Captain J. Perkins
Creesy of Marblehead, Mass, and the
voyage was made in eighty-nine days
and twenty-three hours. Afterward
the same captain made the trip IN
eighty-nine days and thirteen hours,
which time has never been beaten.
Captain Greasy worked his crew for
all they were worth. One squally day
he set and took in studding saila
fourteen times. They saw land but
once on the first voyage and that was
Cape Horn, which they passed at a
distance of three miles.

How They Learn Spanish.

Tourists in Nagasaki. Japan. arc
often surprised to hear the sampan-
men and the rickshaw men in the
street shout Spanish words to white
passers-by; as, "hey, amigo" (hey,
friend). or "hombre." a common ex-
clamation of attention, meaning
man." In the stores the statesmen
also use similar terms. as mo sabe,"
meaning don't know" etc.
The explanation is simple. The Japs
themselves do not know that they are
using Spanish words; they believe
them English slang. They have
learned them from American soldiers
homeward bound from the Philippines.
The Yankee boys, used to employing
Spanish phrases in speaking to Fill.
pinos. instinctively do the same with
the Japs, forgetting that their Ian.
guage is different.

A brief silence fell upon the gather
ing. q silence broken only by tinklings
or shufiiings along the bar Then. far
of. over the prairie, there came a lit
tie fiat, recurrent sound, or series OF
sounds. as Of one patting his fingers
softly together. 1t fell and rose and
grew, coming rapidly nearer. until at
length there could be distinguished
the cracking and popping Of the hoofs

giant prisoner lay asleep upon the

to the door OF the Cottage. where the
restive, nervous horses were left
standing while the men went in, their

bearing with him the rope which he
had loosened from his saddle. Having
drunk, the leader smote upon the bar
with heavy hand.
"Come along. men," he called out.
"The quicker we hang that id

He moved toward the door. followed
