THE ONE-WAY TRAIL.
BY F. A. BANER.

BY F. A. BANER.
Pard, you've travelled many a tough
old trail
And camped on the mountain and in the
vale,
And many a time you've stopped and
looked back
And could see the blazes along the track;
But you were not then on the one-way
trail.
It's queer old trail; a we'll worn old
trail;
You camp not on the mountain nor in
the vale,
And you will find it first with your last
breath,
And it starts out from the Valley of
Death.
It's only blazed going, this one-way trail.
If you could look back no blazes you'd
find,
And the deep worn track would not be
behind;
And you would meet no one upon the
way,
For they re all pressing on without delay
On the one-way trail they're all of one
mind.
So when you're called, pard, just Shout
der your pack,
Slide into the Valley and don't look
back.
You may strike it rich. at the other end
If you do. kindly remember FREUD
Oh, but the one-way trail has no back
track.

OF THE
PETROLEUM INDUSTRY

marking well sites stretching from the
Mississippi clear to the Pacific ocean,
for they are actually pumping oil from
beneath the waters of the Pacific in
southern CalifoI mia. In five years the
petroleum industry in the west and
southwest has developed from insig-
nificant proportions until this part of
America is supplying more of the
liquid than the rest Of the comment

barrels brought forth in 1904 over me-

west.
When it Is remembered that the yield
was a little over 100, 900 900 during the
previous year and &c, 1000, 900 barrels in
1902, the truly wonderful expansion of
the industry can be appreciated. The
greatest yield of the famous Baku dis
trict in Russia is not over So, 600 900
barrels, so that the United States far
exceeds this, the next greatest field of
the world; but if the well diggers
continue their activity on the present
scale the year 1905 will be more of a
record breaker than even 1904, for a
conservative estimate puts the figures
at nearly, If not quite, 100, 000, 900 bar
rels, including districts which have
been exploited only since the begin
niHy of the present year.-San Fran

FATHER OF CHINESE BOYCOTT A
SAN FRANCISCO SCHOOL TEACHER

Honlulu, Sept. 15.-The members or
the Chinese Reform association in
Honolulu are very proud of the fact
that it was they, or more particularly,
one of their members, Ching Ye ON,
who started the boycott in China. The
Chinese Reform association is very
strong in these islands, numbering in
its membership many of the wealth
lest and most extensive merchants
among the Chinese of the islands. The
animating enthusiasm of the organiza-
ton, however, is supplied by a large
number of bright, educated, patriotic
young Chinese. whose hope is to see
China adopt western civilization and
become a great power. 1t was this
element of the association which start
ed the Sun Chung KWOck 30, or re-
form newspaper, and have mate il a
vigorous champion of reform and
given it a circulation all over the
world.
The life and dominating influence
Of this element for the first three
years Of the existence of the Sun
Chung Kwock 30 was Ching We ON.
He was bright, optimistic, enthusl-
astic, Jealous, and a thorough-going
reformer. He was a vigorous speaker
and an effective writer. He was a
teacher by profession, but during
three years was the editor of the Sun
Chung Kwock Be. He conceived Of a
boycott of American goods in China
as a means of modifying the exclusion
treaty. He wrote a long article, one
containing more than 10000 charac-
tiers, setting out In detail the proposal
of the boycott, and how it could be
carried on and what il could accom-
plish. This was originally published
in the sun Chunk KWOck 30, and
through 1t and through rep%ublications
in pamphlet form, thousands upon
thousands Of copies Of this have been

In 1892, some ~prospectors who had
an idea that oil could be found under
meath the city of Los Angeles, Cal, be-
gan boring a test well, and surprised
everybody, including themselves, by
making a strike" Derricks went up
by the score and became a common
sight in the %dooryards of this pretty
little city, wen in the streets. = year
later the Newhall district, as it is
called, was producing about 100, 900
barrels. Today the wells of California
are contributing more petroleum
than those of any other state, exceed
ing even the older fields of Penn
sylvania.
II Is a curious fact that during the
same year, 1892, Patillo Higgins, a
coutry school teacher in eastern fex-
as, conceived the idea that he could
make more money out of oil than he
could in the class room. He succeed
ed in organizing a company to prospect
but nearly ten years elapsed before
he secured enough money to make the
hole. When it began flowing at the
rate of $4,000 barrels every twenty
-four hours people who had laughed at
the visionary scheme changed their
minds. 1t is a long distance from
Texas to California, but th~e-traveler
can now see the frame pyramids

Washington, d. c., Sept. 15.-Jas. A.
Tawney of Winona, Mimi, has been de-
cided upon by prospective speaker
Cannon for the position of chairman
of the appropriation committe, which
is the most important committee Of
congress. Tawney will succeed Jas.
A. Hemenway, who has been elected
to the senate to succeed Vice Presi-
dent Fairbanks.
The man who fills this office holds
the peoples purse strings.
Jas. A. Tawney began life as an
apprentice blacksmith in his fathers
shop. He was then 10 years of age.
His boyhood home was in Gettysburg,
in Adams county, Pa, and here he
lived until 1877, when he went west
and located at Winona.
Afer learning to shoe a horse, Tawn-
ey mastered the trade of mechanic,
and it vas while toiling at the lathe
that he decided to study law. He be-
gan reading during the evenings, and
finally, in order to get more time, he
took his. Blackstone to the shop, and
read while he worked.
At the age of 26 he left the machin-
list business and entered a law office
in Winona. In 1882 he was admitted
to the bar and has since %practiced.
Boldness and industry are the two
most prominent characteristics of this
typically self-made man. He has
been afraid to work, and he never has
been afraid to aspire.
Last fall he was chosen to manage
the speakers bureau for the republic
an national committee at Chicago. He
never had done anything of the sort,
but he started in, and every morning
was up at 3 and down to the office
before the janitOrs. He generally re-
NAMED at the auditorium until after
midnight.
One of the smartest things that
Tawney did in managing the speak
ers campaign was capturing Missouri,
If any credit is due any manager for
that result, it is due Tawney. In the
face of Tidicule by his fellow commit
tee men, and entirely on his own re
sponsibility, and initiative, he sent
speakers into Missouri and devoted
more attention to that state than to
any one single state except Indiana.
The day before the election was held
he predicted the election Of Roosevelt
electors in Missouri, and his predic-
ton was thought very amusing. The
following day the laugh was his.
Tawney and Cannon have always

SAD ENDING OF A
PRETTY LOVE STORY
TRAVELLED 10000 MILES FOR LOVE
AND is BEREFT OF REASON, AS
HAPPINESS APPEARS.

The pathetic story of pretty Els
tella Segorri's 10, 000-mile trip by land
and sea, from sunny Italy to Arizona,
to marry the man she loved, only to
be sent to confinement in a mad house,
is one of the most pathetic in the his
tory of Arizona, says the Phoenix Ga
Zette.
True, she married the man of her
love, and was for a short time happy.
The rugged hills of northern Arizona
were a rough contrast to the lands of
her nativity, but love will lead one
around the world to strange lands and
uncongenial surroundings and happi-
ness remains.
But shortly after the marriage of
this pretty daughter of the southland
to her love of childhood days, their
home in Poland, Yavapai county, was
attacked by a ruffian, and both the
little woman and George Sanati were
beaten. The husband was given the
most severe beating, but the wife re-
ceived a blow over the head that rem
dered her insane.
Its Insidious Growth.
The malady anne slowly upon her,
n for a time she was only fighty,
but a couple OF e ago 1t became
apparent that it would be necessary
to have her restrained. Her strongest
delusion is that some one is trying to
set their house on fire and burn her
up. She was examined before Pro
bate Judge Hicks at Prescott, and
found to be insane.
Wild-eyed, and unable to understand
a word of what was transporting, she
sat in court for the examination. She
could not understand why, when the
proceedings were over, the brawny
sheriff of Yavapai county placed her
on a train and brought her to Phoe-
nix to be confined in the asylum, where
zone but strange faces greeted her
and none can speak her tongue.
Her Future Hopeless.
In this prison she will probably
wear her life away, longing for the
familiar Genes of her old home in the
land of perpetual sunshine, 10000
miles away, ever restrained and ever
longing like a bird in a gilded cage,
for freedom and the happiness that has
been suatched from her by fate.

PEOPLE.

A family living near the city OF
Tiflis, in the Caucasus, consists of
five members whose combined age is
1896 years. The father is 105, the
mother 80, and three sons are over 60.
Mrs. Abbie Gardner Sharp, the sole
survivor of the Spirit Lake massacre,
of 1857, is living at Pillsbury's Point,
Lake Okoboji, Iowa. With the pro-
ceeds of the history of that event, she
purchased her home on the lake.
Referring to betting by workingmen,
Mr.. Crooks, the London labor member
of parliament, said in a speech that
they thought that when they were
backing horses they were improving
the breed. He undertook to say that
many of them did not know whether
they were putting their money on
three legs and a swinger or on a
donkey.
