ten Drunk.

No inquest was held over the re-
mains Of Liberty, the Indian who died

house. where he died at O'Clock
Monday evening from the effects OF
chronic alcoholism. Yesterday after
noon the Indians of the reservation
took charge of his body and he Will

The Uncomfortable Collar.

81 don't know what Is the matter
with these collars" said Smartboy to
the salesman. "They seemed all right
when bought them yesterday. But
had to use button hook to connect
them with my collar button this morn
ing. They fit as though they We're in
tended for my little brother"
There are two ways to put on col
lar" replied the salesman, "and you
seem to have chosen the wrong way.

day, but 1t was not up to me to tell
you. I've been Jumped on for volun-

once. Most men think 1t does not make
any difference whether you button the
right side or the left of collar first
1t makes all the difference in the
world in the comfort and set Of the

Undo that collar you are wearing, but
ton the right side first, and you'll be
glad you're alive."-New York Press.

A stamp collector received a letter
from a friend in foreign parts and was
annoyed to find that the postage stamp
had been removed, evidently while In
transit. A complaint to the postoffice
brought the reply that the matter could
not be gone into, as the stamp, once af-
fixed to the letter as payment for post
age, was the property Of the postmas-
ter general. and neither the sender Of
the letter nor the addressee had further
claim to it.-Kansas City Independent.

The Old National Road.

When the panic of 1887 swept over
the country the national road was
barely halfway through Illinois. No
work was done on it after 1871. Two
years before, however, line of stages
and post routes had been started from
Cumberland. in Maryland, TO Terre
Haute, in Indiana, from which latter
place there was a triweekly service for
passengers and mail to Springfield, Ill.
This marked the first overland travel
from east to west. Passengers and
mail bags were jolted along in cum
bersome coaches, each with four
strong horses. On account Of the high
rates travel was confined mainly to
merchants and lawyers. The passen-
ger, with an allowance Of fifty pounds
Of baggage, paid at the rate Of 10
cents a mite. 1t Is noted that Clay
and Lincoln were among the frequent
passengers,-Phlladelphla Ledger.

Public Sentiment Elsewhere.

In Pendleton Sunday was a CLOSED
day in the fullest sense of the word,
not a place Of business being open ex-
cept hotels, restaurants and drug
stores. Even the ice plant was closed.
This was the rule-or-ruin policy pur-
sued by the saloons, who were deter
mined that II they closed, every other
business, legitimate or otherwise,
should do the same. Men can do
without liquor on Sunday, but not
without bread, and during the warm
weather not without ice.-The Dalles
Chronicle.

Closed by Low Water.

Low water has caused the Black
Cloud mine and mill to close down.
throwing nearly rs men out OF en-
ployment. A Pittsburg corporation
has been operating the property for
several months upon an extensive
scale. Until there Is an increase OF
water in Nine Mile creek only small
force Of men will be employed on de-
velopment work. This is the second
property that has been forced to sus-
pend operations this summer on ac-
count of lack of water. The Rex mill,
formerly the Sixteen to One. closed
down last week for this reason

Frank English Servants.

The English servants. whether they
prove better when engaged, are certain
ly franker than American servants in
declaring their weaknesses in adver-
tlsing for employment. The columns
Of London paper disclose their amia-
Bile candidness. In the first advertise
ment the applicant confesses to drink
temptation, but not an inebriate;' the
next pleads as her recommendation
that she is faithful, but plain of
speech" a third requires place where
manual work is light" but does not
say of what intellectual work she Is
capable, while fourth Is described as
dishonest girl Of seventeen" Should
the mistress be too hypercritical to en-
gage any of the above attractive serv-
ants she has still another opportunity
perhaps 'she will be willing to train
for domestic service rough coster

Case Was Dismissed

Live Stock Inspector T. F. Hold en, who is also deputy sheriff, the first of the week went out about twelve miles south of Flagstaff and placed H. R. Heckethorn under ar rest for unlawfully killing cattle. On Monday in Judge Harrington's court at Flagstaff the case was dis missed because of lack of evidence to convict. Under the law passed by the last legislature it is unlaw- full for a rancher to kill more than three beef in any one year, unless he has a butchers license. As it is pretty hard matter to convict a man for killing his own beef, it is likely that hereafter, instead of try ing to limit the number, the inspec
 tor will see that that section of the law demanding that a beef be i'm spected before it is killed be en- forced. The fact of the matter is that the law is not intended to work a hardship on such men as MT. Heckethorn who kill their own cat tie, but is intended for the fellow who kills those of his neighbor. Hence it were better to make ar rests for a violation of the inspec- ton clause. We understand that MT. Heckethorn, not wishing to have further trouble, has made ap- plication for a butchers license.
