RANCH AND HOUSEHOLD.

When q fellow can get twenty-eight
cents pound for butter fat In mid
winter 1t means SIS hundred for
milk and this ought to satisfy every
man who keeps COW on cheap alfalfa
and blue sky. This is a better price
than dairymen of the older states re-
ceive and yet we hear good many
people kicking because they have the
misfortune to own a COW. We have
always had good deal of admiration
for the fellow who wrote that popular
song, Little Brown Jug in which be
said; !'If had COW that gave rich
milk, I'd dress her in the finest silk, Y
but alas and alack. how many people
ever stop to look at it in this way

Taking up n homestead and convert
ing 1t into good farm is no dream Of
delight it requires stout heart to go
through with the proposition. A large
proportion of the people who take up
homesteads lose them. They devote
several years to getting them started
and just about the time they should be
receiving some returns for their labor
they lose their holdings, either from
lack of money or some unforeseen mis-
fortune. A mau should haye some
cash on hand when he takes up n
homestead with which to begin opera
tions. If he has to borrow money for
stock, implements and other necessities
he Is almost sure to lose, for q short
crop or any unexpected difficulty will
put him so badly in the hole that it is
almost Impossible for him to work his
way out. The man, however, whOihas
some ready cash, who knows some
thing about the country and Is equip
ped with the proper experience Can
take up homestead and make good
thing out of it. The one thing above
all otheIs tp avoid is not to go-tao
deeply in eht.-Field and Farm. Il

John Wesley once said that the hab-
it of fretting and whining is as sinful
as it is to swear and lie and steal, and
he was right. How many lives are
rendered miserable, and how many
homes are blighted and distressed, by
some chronic fretters and whiners; yes,
and even those who profess to be Chris
tians. 1t is a monster travesty on the

was in the city of Mobile, Alabama,
in September, 1868, on twelve day
furlough. At that time was lieuten-
ant colonel of the Fourteenth Tennessee
cavalry under Lieutenant General N.
b. Forres. While in the city with my
orderly, Sargent William Wharton,
we stopped at the Battle House for ten
days, and when we took our departure
the hotel clerk presented me with q
bill for $1,000 for ten days hoard for
myself and sargent. / have this re-
ceipted bill. also have the original
bill for goods bought lin o bile on Sep-
tember 81, 1868, itinlized as follows:
One ladies' hat $83, one box hairpins
50, one box lily white 81, one dozen
ladies' hose SllQ, one silk dress and
trimming $26l, one dozen handker-
chiefs $72, one-half dozen towels S4s,
one lace veil S25, one shawl 5000, one
quire letter paper 81, one bundle enve-
lopes 50, one lead pencil 81, two pair
ladies' shoes 500; total $3.50; grand
total SlsS9 in Confederate money. This
reveals the fact that the South fought
against deprecated money as well as
against brave men. But after ali we
are in an undesirable union, and
both the gray and the blue were like
the negro with the turtle: A negro
was carrying a turtle along the street
smacking his lips over his prospects of
fine feast, when a ventriloquist SEEM
ingly caused the turtle to say: Where
Is you guine to drap me ate" The negro
stopped, looked around for moment,
and then went on in meditative
mood, when the question was repeated
-"Where is you guine to drap me?"
The negro looked at the turtle and
said, Else guine to drap you right
here hunny," and took to his heels.
I think the turtle was willing to be
dropped, and know was. What
say you, my brother blue?
The blue and the gray
In battle array:
Like enemies they fought,
Though brothers they be.
Why fought they at all,
Who knows best?
Let the answer be hushed, =
The Nation was blessed.
Let all men be free
God grant 1t be so;
The gray would not change it,
And the blue says no.
LET the hIla and the Urav
Together stand;
In love for each other
And for our blessed land.
To conquer all trusts,
Let each do his best;
To Danish this monster,
That all may be blessed.

Didn't Seem Curious

Fght OF some Kind There, but the Police
DIDN'T Seem Curious.
There was a fight in the French gambling
house at los West Twenty-eighth street
last night and one man was shot in the night
thigh. He told the police that he was Joseph
Myers. 10 years old, a waiter Of III West
Fortieth street. He Is in the New YORK
Hospital and denied that he was shot by
any one. He says he was showing on a
new revolver when it was accidentally
dichArged.
The renderloin police seemed only too
ready TO take the explanation OF the ahair
given by Myers. No one at the police sta
ton would even admit that Myers received
his wound in a gambling house. Although
Policeman MoNieTney's post takes IN the
street on which the gambling shouse Ia
located, and he has had this post for months
he even denied all knowledge OF gambling
house.
McNierney was standing at Sixth avenue
and Twenty eighth street last nj ght when
he heard a pistol shot. The shot came
from iOS and he hurried there. He found
many men in the hall and on the top floor
Myers. A dozen FTenChmen surrounded
the injured man and everybody In the
building was excited.
McNierney called an ambulance for
Myers and asked him who shot him. Myers
told the yarn Of shooting himself. McNier-
new says he expressed doubt OF Myers's
story, whereupOn a Frenchman who said
he was Lucien Charley declared that Myers
was telling the truth.
Charley seemed TO know 30 much more
about the shooting than any one else that
MoNierney decided he would take hun
10 the police station, He did 30, after
sepdinR Myers to the hospital. Al the
police station Charley still declared that
Nverr had shot himself. After this dec
laration he was allowed 20 go free.
Later, word was brought TO the Tender
loin station that there had been a fight In
the gambling house preceding the shooting
and L would be well for the police 70 investi-
gate. Two Of Capt. Cottrells PLAIN clothes

CAGED WOLVES FIGHT.
Lively Battle over n Piece Of Meat in The

Lively Battle over n Piece Of Meat in The
Bronx Park Too.
The animals in the Bronx Park Zoo were
being fed yesterday afternoon when two
wolves got hold OF the same piece Of meat.
There we're four in the cage, two gray
and two timber wolves. IL was one Of
each that wanted the meat.
The timber wolf let 60 his hold on the
meat and grabbed the other by the throat.
There was a lively fight until the gray wolf
got loose. He was pretty badly torn, but
when his opponent tried to pick up the dis
puted dinner the gray wolf pitched into
him and bit the timber VOLTS scalp.
BY this time two Of the keepers, Rae and
Schloeher got iron pointed poles and forced
the oombatants into the rear Of the cage.
The keepers for a time couldn't make
the wolves stop fighting, In their third
setto the timber wolf got hold Of his enemy's
Jaw. He tore the flesh and injured the
animal before the two keepers, reinforced
by two others, finally separated them.
The other wolves had begun to smell
the blood and were growing uneasy. Finally
the gray wolf, which had been beaten, was
driven TO an adjoining cage. Then they
all uueted down.

LIONS BIRD FRIEND KILLED.
Central Park Leopard No Respecter OF
Roses Robin Callers.


A robin that has made It's summer home
in the lion house in the Central Park menag-
erie for several years was killed yesterday
by the black African leopard.
Il was about six years ago that a pair
Of robins built nest among the rafters
OF the frame structure and raised a brood
OF little birds.
The following spring the old robins did
not reappear, but a pair Of young ones
that had been bonn in the lion house re-
turned however, and raised a family.
They have returned each spring since
then and the keepers always scattered
cracked corn and crumbs Of bread about
for them.
The birds struck up a sort Of friendship
with old Rose the lioness. They would
ali ht on the top Of her cage and at times
yentured TO the floor. She would look at
them, but never molested them. The
robins got to be known as Roses pets.
One OF Roses pets came back from the
South a few days ago and finding a window
Of the lion house open flew into the build
ing and chirped. Keeper Hoey recognized
an old acquaintance and got some cracked
corn. The IoSia few about the building
and visited the old nest and seemed glad
to get among friends
The robin made the mistake, however
Of flying TO the top of the black leopard's
cage yesterday while the leopard was ing
on the sprin gboard pretending to be asleep.
Suddenly he launched upward and before
the robin could fly away the sharp claws
seized il and pulled il into the cage. The
big cat proceeded to eat the bird, and all
that Keeper HOey could get out OF the cage
was a few feathers.
The leopard has killed a dozen English
sparrows in the same way.
