8 Bishop Ellison Capers, of South Caro-
lima, recently addressed a meeting OF Con-
federate veterans in Columbia, says an
exchange.
In the course of his address Bishop
Capars spoke of those men who deceive
their wives, pretending that they are de-
tained late at their Offices on business,
when really they are spending the even
ing at the theater or the club.
aThese men," he said, "are fewer than
the comic writers of the press would have
4us believe, but nevertheless, here land
there, they do exist. / wish that they
could all be caught as nicely as one OF
them, aresident Of, Columbia, was caught
the other day.

Horseback Ride OF s82 Miles.

was as tough as leather. got my first
remount from st. Vrain al Mora, about so
miles from Santa Fe, and rode it two days
till found camp of Utes hunting Buf-
falo, and got fresh horse from their
herd, in the night I had to be very
careful about falling in with any Indians,
for they would have killed lone man
for his outfit, and half dozen times, or
more, I hid in some draw on the prairie
till night, OF rode miles off on the trail to
keep away from their hunting parties or
camps. It was very risky, too, riding in
to their herds, and roping fresh horse,
and always led him away some distance
before I tried to change my saddle, so
that if he made any noise, it wouldn't
stampede the herd and wake the camp.
II didn't dare to make fire in the day
time, but at night could cook little meat
on the Goals, and the little slept was
while lying on my lariat, so that my horse
couldn't get away with it out of my reach.
I followed the Arkansas as far as Big
Bend, and then bore off across the country
to Council Grove, and from there north
east, following the plain trail to Fort
Leavenworth in all, 832 miles, as meas
ured later. I rode it in little less than

 Auburn went wild. Weems was >the hero. He was carried from the field on the shoulders of his fellow students and his name was on the lips of every body. Auburn considers that this vic tory is the forerunner of more on the diamond.
 The feature of the game was the plucky work of Harris. Alabama catcher. In running after a foul ball. he collided with Moody and was thrown violently to the ground. He swung on the sphere, however. and al though bleeding profusely from the nose and weakened by the force of the blow, continued the game. And even the ranks of Auburn did not forbear to cheer"

Both pitched ball that would have done credit al- most to Chesbro or Bill Dineen. but Weems had the advantage of having the crowd with him and during the last three innings was decidedly more steady than his veteran opponent.
