PRAIRIE DOGS.
Choked Up River While Travelling
From Oklahoma to Texas.

Choked Cp q River While Travelling
From Oklahoma to Texas.
'The prairie dog migration from
Oklahoma to southwestern Texas dur
ing July, 1874, eclipsed anything OF
that sort witnessed by white men In
this country" said veteran who saw
It. Millions Of the frisky little bark
ers must have been in quest Of new
pastures or perhaps feared the ap-
preaching legions Of home seekers
would surely exterminate the dogs and
plow up the dog towns. The prairie
dog migration from the north to the
southwest lasted SIX days during the
month Of July. 1874. The travelling
dogs while crossing the Red river in
terfered to a great extent with the
cattle that came to that stream to
ouench their thirst. Some cowboys
that were on the banks Of Red river
during the time when the prairie dogs
swan across say that the stream was
chock full Of the little rascals for
many miles up and down the river.
The thirsty cattle were either unable
or unwilling to stick their mouths into
the water through the moving mass Of
living prairie dogs. The cowboys were
getting ready to drive the famishing
stock to distant stream, but the Red
river became clear Of the repelling
swimmers after blocking the useful
drinking place for about a week. 1t
was generally supposed that the dogs
halted when they had reached the
staked plains Of Texas."-Kansas City
Times.

THE BEuTED PLAID.
Ehis Was the Original Dress of the
Scottish Hfrhlonder.

Scottish Highlander.
The original dress of the highlander
was the belted plaid. This was a
piece Of tartan cloth, two yards broad
and four long, which was drawa
around the waist in nicely adjusted
folds and tightly buckled with belt.
The lower part came down to the
knees in much the same manner as
the modern kilt, while the upper part
was drawn up and adjusted to the left
shoulder, so that the right arm might
be perfectly free This upper part was
the plaid, which was used as covering
for the shoulders and body In wet
weather, and when the use Of both
arms was required 1t was fastened
across the breast with q brooch, often
curiously enriched. a brooch was also
used to fasten the plaid on the left
shoulder. TO attire himself in the belt
ed plaid required on the part Of the
highlander no small amount of dexteri-
ty. The usual way was to lay 1t on
the aoor and after carefully arranging
the folds to lie down upon it and then
buckle it on. The lower end was fas-
tened at the right hip. The utility Of
such dress in the highlands IS OBJ
vious, for the plaid rendered the man
Indifferent to storms and prepared to
pass night in the open air in the
most inclement weather, while the loose
undergarment enabled him to wade
rivers or ascend mountains with equal
ease. It was thus peculiarly adapted
to the warrior, the hunter and the
shepherd.-London Mail.

Greelyville VS. Foreston.
Editor The Manning Times:

Editor The Manning Times:
Will YOU kindly allow me space in
your valuable paper to correct at least
a few OF the many mistakes (?) contain
ed in the article from your Foreston
correspondent in last weeks TINES.
The first wall we hear from Mr.. Net
ties is something about the quantity
and quality of Greelyville's ball ground.
AS to quality, will say, the ground is a
fairly good" one. better than the
everage country ball ground, the
diamond having been hoed and ,'aked
off this spring. AS to the ground be-
ing too small, he got that idea I am
sure. from the fact that the Greelyville
boys did such heavy batting, and
would like for him to say which is bet
ter, to 90 into corn knee high for a
foul and woods for 4 long lily, or climb
over a fence for these same balls.
Then Mr.. Nettles goes on to make the
following remarkable statement: Any
one could see from the first inning that
no matter what happened Greelyville
would win, for ForeSton had ran into
mess" Now. here are the facts: at the
end OF the first inning the score stood
one to nothing in favor of Foreston
How Mr.. Nettles can reconcile these
facts with his statement fail to see.
Foreston may have run into mess
on this occasion, but didn't furnish the
Greelyville boys half mess at bal!
playing.
If there had been no kick on the
umpire observer: would never have
mentioned his fair and impartial de.
cisions. I have been reliably informed
that Foreston said she would not play
unless one of four men was umpire and
Mr.. Boyle was not one of the four, and
their kicks on his decisions were Of
frequent occurrence. They went so far
as to try and get another man about
the middle of the game. at which time
the writer noticed the boys seemed tc
be arguing; about something, and
asked Mr.. Nettles what was the matter
and his answer was, ''they want anoth,
er umpire" asked what for? and his
reply was: "Oh! his decisions are rot
ten. Rotten, Rotten....
In Justice to our boys please publish
the above. and I am done with it. vii!

Have You High Temper? Answer Before
Reading This.

Some people have worms and often
don't know it. The doctor is TOO polite
to tell them. Here are some OF the
symptoms: Sick feeling in chest, chok'
ing cough with tendency to gag, sud
den uneasiness and pains in stomach,
itching around corners OF nose. All
these and more, indicate worms. An
irritable temper is one of the surest
signs OF worms in adults and children.
Kings Vermifuge is the cure, and it is
sure. For very young children give
Kings Worm Candy, which is pleasant
tastes good. Children like it. The
