They went to a clinch. BRIT forced
the fighting leading out with either
left or straight right. A straight left
found the Britisher's head and an at
tempt at retaliation went glimmering.
Britt hooked two wicked lefts to the
jaw and quick as a fash drove a
straight left to the body and the Eng

The Cost OF War.

"Give me the money" says a recent
speculative philosopher, that has been
spent in war, and | will purchase every
foot of land on the globe. | will clothe
every man, woman and child in an attire
of which kings and queens would be
proud. l will build schoolhouses on
every hillside and in every valley over
the whole earth; | will build an academy
in every town and endow 1t, a college
in every state and fill it with able pro-
fessors; | will crown every hill with =
place of worship consecrated to the pro-
mitigation of peace; l will support in
every pulpit al able teacher OF
righteousness, SO that on every Sabbath
morning the chime on n hill shall an
swer to the chime on another around
the earth's wide circumference, and the
voice of prayer and song of praise should
ascend like a universal holocaust to
Heaven"

two policemen to see that We got away.
Dad tried to argue the question with
the landloard, after all the windows
he had come to Texas for a quiet life,
to get away from the climate of the
north, but he had no idea any landlord
would turn animals into q gentleman'S
room, and he would sue for damages,
but the bluff did not work, and we left
San Antonio on a freight train, under
escort of the police and the board Of
health. Say, that freight train smelled
like it had a hot box, but nobody sus-
pected us. When we got most to New
Orleans dad said: 'Hennery, l hope
this will be a lesson to YOU and | told
him two nor such lessons would kill
his little boy dead"
What did you do with your clothes?"
said the groceryman, as he snutfed
around as though he thought he could
smell something.
20, we bought new clothes in New
Orleans and let our old ones out Of the
window with a rope A man picked
them up, and they sent him to the
quarantine for smallpox patients. o,
we came out all right, but it was a
close call. Say, | bet this prairie dog
can lick your cat in a holy minute"
and the boy pushed the dog against the
cat, said sick EN- and the cat scratch
ed the dog, the dog yelled and bit the
cat, the cat ran up the shelves over
the canned goods and tipped over some
bottles of pickles and the old grocery
mar got crazy, while the boy took his
prairie dog under his arm, and his
horned toad in his hand and started
to go out.
"I1l drop in some day and have ONT
fun with YOU" said the boy.
eff you do l will stab you with a
cheese knife" said the groceryman, as
he picked I'D the broken glass.

me the animal had been vaccinated and
wouldn't ever make any trouble for
anyone, and he would warrant it. l
thought a warranted skunk was all
right, and so l went to bed in a cot
next to dads bed. | guess it was about
daylight, when skunks want to suck
eggs, that he began to scratch the box
and squeak, and l was afraid it would
wake dad up, SO | reached down and
took the cover off the box. From that
very identical moment the trouble be-
gan. Dad heard something in the room
and he rose up in bed, and the animal
sat on the foot of the bed and looked
at dad. Dad said: Scat" and threw
a pillow at my pet, and her all was
chaos. | never smelled chaos but |
know when | smell it. o, o, but you'd
a dide to see dad. He turned blue and
green and said: 'Hennery, some one
has opened a jack pot, call for the POI
lice | rushed for the indicator, where
you ring for bellboys, and cocktails
and things, and touched all the but
tons, and then got to bed and pulled a
quilt over my head, and dad went into
a closet, where my snakes and things
Were, and the va~ccinated skunk kept
on doing the same as he did to dad,
l thought | should die. Dad heard
my snake rattle hisself in the box, and
he stepped on my prairie dog and yelled
murder, and he got into my box of
horned toads, and my young badger
scratched dads bare feet, and a young
eagle | had began to screech, and dad
began to have a fit. He said the air
seemed fixed, and he opened the win
dow and sat on the window sill in his
nightshirt, and a fireman came up on a
ladder from the outside and turned the
hose on dad, then the police come and
broke in the door, and the landlord
was along, and the porter, and all the
chambermaids, and everybody. | had
turned in all the alarms there were,
and everybody came quick. The skunk
met the policemen half way. and sa-
luted them as polite as could be, and
they fell back for reinforcements. Dad
got his pants and yelled that he vas
stabbed, and l don't know what didn't
happen. Finally the policemen go: my
skunk under a blanket and walked on
him, and he was squashed. but. by
gosh, they can never use that blanket
again, and | told EN- Sc"
Its a wonder they didn't put a
blanket over you and kill you, too"
said the old groceryman, as he moved
away from the horned toad, which the
boy had placed on the counter. What
did they do to you then? What way did
your dad explain it? How long did
you remain at the hotel after that?'
I'VE didn't stay hardly any after
that" said the boy, as he pushed the
prairie dog along the counter toward
the groceryman's cat, hoping to get
them to fighting. "The landloard said
we id yankees were 100 strenuous
for his climate and if we didn't get out
of his house in Is minutes he would
get a gun and see about it, and he left

animal jumped into a half barrel OF
dried applies and began to dig with all
four feet, as though to make a bed to
lie in.
Take that ~animalcule, or whatever
it is, u of them apples" said the old
groceryman, picking up a fire poker.
What is it, and where did it come
from, and when did you get back, and
why didn't you stay away, and what
do you want in here, anyway" and the
old man eyed the animal and the bad
boy, expecting to be bitten by one and
bilked by the other.
That's a prairie dog from Texas, if
you are not posted on ornicothology,"
said the boy, as he took the prairie dog
up and put him on the counter near the
cat. Dad is all right, only we were
driven out of Texas by the board OF
health"
Il told that pirate chum of yours,
when he read me your letter, that you
would be in Texas just about a week,
and that you would be shipped home in
a box. They are not az tolerant with
public nuiSances down south as we are
here. But what did you do there to get
the board of health after you?" and the
old man pushed the cats back down
level, and held her tail so she couldn't
eat the prairie dog.
well, sir, it was the cOndemndedest
outrage that ever was" said the boy,
as he gave the prairie dog some crack
erS and cheese. You see, dad told me
I could pick up some pet animals while
was in Texas, and | got quite a col
lection, while dad was in the hospital.
Here is one in my pocket" and the boy
took a horned toad out of his pocket
about as big as a s~oftshelled crab and
put it in the lod groceryman's hand.
Condemn you, don't put a poisonous
reptile in my hand" said the old man,
as he dropped the ugly looking toad on
the floor, and got behind the show case,
while the boy laughed fit to kill. Nov
tell .our story and vamooSe, by ginger,
or | will ring for the patrol wagon.
You would murder a man in his own
house, and laugh at his spasms."
80, get out, that toad, and this prai-
RE dog are as harmless as your old
cat there said the boy, as he watched
the old man tremble as though he had
jum-iams. Il have got a tarantula and
a diamond-back r~attlesnake that will
pizen you, though. I'll tell you about
getting fired out of Texas, if you will

T HE old groceryman sat on an up
turned ~half-bushel measure, in
front of the stove, drying his old-fash-
toned boots. AS he fried the soleS in
front of the red-hot stove, there was
an odor of burnt leather, but he did
not notice it, as the other odors, nat
ural to the dirty old grocery, seemed
to be in the majority. The door opened
quietly, and the old man got up to wait
on a possible customer, when the bad
boy rushed in and dropped on the
fioor the queerest animal the old man
and the cat had ever seen. The cat
got up on the counter on a pile OF
brown wrapping paper, curved its
back and p~ermeyowed, and the strange

stand still a minute. You see, | had
my collection of pets in my room at the
hotel, and | had the bellboys bribed,
and the chambermaid would only come
into our room while I was there to
watch the pets. The night dad got
back from the hospital, where he went
to grow some new bones and things on
his insides, after he rode the bucking
broncho, a man gave me the prettiest
little animal you eve saw, sort OF
white and black, about the size of a
cat. and I took it to the room, and
put it under the bed, in a box the man
gave me. Dad had gone to bed, and
was snoring SO you could cut it with
a knife"
"Say, you knew that animal was a
skunk all the time; now, tell me, didn't

Eyes, l thought it was a skunk all
