ShrIekInA and ShoetInA.

IL is a comfort to realize when WI
hear people talking about "the good
old times that used To be-" that In
some respects, at least, We show more
common sense to-day. One instance
is in our attitude towards women
There was a time when q woman was
expected to shrek and faint at almost
any emergency. 1t vas even consider.
ed an attractive exhibition Of depend.
nee. To-day we pardon lack Of nerve
and self.possession in a roman almost
as little as in a man. The girl who
rides and shoots has taken the place
Of the girl who used TO shrek and
faint. No small factor in bringing
this welcome change about has been
the campaign carried on by the j.
Stevens Arms & Tool Co, Chicopee
Falls, Mass, makers of the famous
Stevens firearms, who have intro
duced our girls to the healthy, up.
building sport Of outdoor shooting.
The company has issued a book illus
trating many varieties of lightweight
rifles, shotguns and pistols which girls
all over the country arei using to-day.
1t contains much useful and interest
ing information on such points as the
selection, car and testing of firearms,
besides notes on ammunition, targets,
etc. We understand the book will be
sent free to anyone sending four cents
in stamps, to W postage.

An Old Story Revived.

The following special telegram from
Lincoln, which is in line with a sug-
gestion made by The CHEF just after
Frank Barker had been granted a re.
prieve of two years, appeared in Sun.
days World Herald:
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. l. The insani.
ty charge against Frank Barker, the
Webster county murderer, may be
dropped now that it has served the
purpose Of saving him from hanging
June l6.
A reprieve of two years was granted
Barker by Governor Mickey, thereby
stirring up much censure in Webster
county, where the feeling against
Barker is still very bitter. The
county attorney there is said to be
watching every move of Barker's coun.
sci and already has a new complaint,
charging him with numbering his
sister-in-law, prepared and ready for
filing. The present conviction and
sentence to death is for the murder of
his brother, Daniel Barker.

BIaden Preacher "ESaed."

Rev. J.. b. Wilson, the Methodist
preacher at Bladen, was rotten. egged
Monday night by a crowd of young
men who ambushed him from a clump
of weeds. Several have been arrested
and will be tried tomorrow. At a re
cen wedding in the country near Bla-
den a number.of young men drank ex-
cessively, so it is said, and made an un-
pleasant demonstration. The preach
er in his sermon Sunday night bitterly
scored their conduct. The boys got to-
gether an assortment of bad eggs ant,
waiting for the preacher in the weeds
near which he was expected to pass
gave him a full broadside. He was
daubed from head to foot. He recog.
nized some Of the youths and had them
arrested.
