singing cattIe TO Sleep.

A curious instance OF the power Of
music comes from the western ranches,
where the cowboys have learned that
they can sing cattle TO sleep. At bed
ding time" a rider will ride to the
front Of a herd. stop It, and then he will
ride rapidly around and around It till
the cattle are herded close together.
He usually sings or whistles while he
is doing this, and presently one Of the
herd lies down, to be followed In quick
succession by the others, till in ten
minutes herd OF 900 may be all down.
The cowboy now rides slowly around
them, stopping occasionally II he de-
slres to. and whistling or singing. as he
likes. But should the herd get up or
become excited In the night he rides
around rapidly and sings until they are
quiet.-New York Tribune

could not be, as there were too many
candidates asking for the support of the
common people, II Stockton and Call
had not been in the race, jennings would
probably have been nominated, for no
one can doubt that Taliaferro polled the
full corporation vote, aud that it was the
anti corporation vote that was divided
between Jennings Stockton and Gait
Now | am for Stockton, aud not for
Stockton only, but for the "Thrce
Friends" (Stockton, Bars aud Brow.
ard), and | sincerely trrst that every one
who voted with me IN the first primary
will vote with me In the second one.
l haven't the slightest doubt that Gov.
ernor Jennings himself will support
Stockton earnestly from now until tie
battle closes ann sure also that some
who supported Taliaferro before have
seen their mistake, and will vote for
Stockton on June 9TH. A Jennings OF
Call man cannot consistently support
Taliaferro, but everyone Of them can,
from the very nature of things, take to
Stockton as naturally as duck can
take TO water.
Now fellow voters, who are Of the com.

give Stockton, Bars aud Broward as
