NERVE OF THE "SOONERS'

For many persons, q newly d!scov-
cred fact is simply spring-board
from which they dive into a bottomless
sea Of speculation. says Samuel Nc
Chord Crothers, in Atlantic. They
pride themselves on their ability to
Jump at conclusions, forgetting that

ct. Every new discovery is followed
by a dozen extravagances engineered
by the Get-wise-Quick people. There
is always some Young Napoleon OF
Philosophy who undertakes to corner
truth-market It's like what happened
at the opening of Oklahoma territory.
Before the day set by the government
when they all were to start fair in
their race for farms, a band of adven-
tuyers called "Sooners" struggled
themselves across the line. When the
bona fide settler arrived on his quar-
ter-section, he found an impudent
Sooner" in possession. You can't
fnd any fresh field of investigation
that isn't claimed by these sooners. II
all comes because people are no longer
educated logically.

OEEP-SEA FISHINC-BANKS.
Where the People Of New York City
Get an Occasional Taste
of Sport.

Every day through the spring and
summer and autumn, and almost every
day in winter, a boat leaves one Of the
East river piers bound for the deep
sea fishing bands, writes Bertha II.
smith, in Four-Track News. Every
Passenger on board is Of that true democ-
lacy, the democracy of the rod and
reel. Not death itself is more of a
common leveler than the fishing-rod,
and who crosses the gang plank of this
fishing steamboat leaves class dstinc-
ton behind.
The professional man fleeing bust
Tess for a day, the clerk with holi-
day on his hands, the mechanic thrown
into idleness by strike, the invalid
who finds the city irksome and longs
for a sniff of the sea, old men, young
boys and all ages and stages of man
Kind between, may be seen in the
stream of people that dribbles along
the pier while the sun is yet lodging
behind the Brooklyn hOusetops. The
man who would go deep-sea fishing
must be up betimes, for it is good
three hours run to the tishing-banks.

BEAUTIFUL NEWFOUNDLAND.
Scenery So Beautiful That Parts Of
It Vie with Famed Kill
larney.

In looking over your magazine | was
surprised to find how little mention
is made Of Newfoundland, with almost
unlimited game, both fish and fowl,
deer and bear, for those that go far
enough, writes Bessie Began Cowman,
in Recreation.
And scenery so beautiful that parts
of it vie with famed Killarney. The
rugged grandeur of Pete harbor, or the
beautiful bay of Outer Cove, and the
rock hills near Logy bay. l may be
prejudiced, but l have not seen any
thing pictured to come near them.
Oh, Newfoundland. with your beau
tiful bayous and shining creeks, where
in salmon and that pet of good ang-
lers, speckled trout, with its firm,
pink flesh, abound. l often wonder
that more lovers of fine sport don t
visit you. Topsail is an ideal place
to spend a summer; its beautiful seem
cry, the oldfashioned hospitality Of
its people leave nothing to be desired.
And then, in September, when the
partridge or ptarmigan comes in, what
sport to go up to Pettigrew's and out
to Toad's cove, when the ship, point
out on the barrens. usually finishes the
trip. Then the lovely ride back amidst
such scenes as can only be found
among people that both fish and farm
for a living.

Ravages of the Big Gray Wolf Far
Worse Than Those of the
Coyote.

Big wolves are found in both Texas
and Oklahoma, but they are rare COM
pared to the coyotes; and they are
great wanderers says Theodore Roose-
welt, in Scribner's. Alone or in par
ties OF three or four or half dozen
they travel to and fro across the coun-
try, often leaving a district at once If
they are molested. Coyotes are more
or less plentiful everywhere through
out the west in thinly settled districts
and they often hang about in the i'm
mediate neighborhood OF towns. They
do enough damage to make farmers
and ranchers kill them whenever the
chance offers.
But this damage Is not appreciable
when compared with the ravages of
their grim, big brother the gray wolf,
which, wherever it exists in numbers
is a veritable scourge to the stock
mol.

SLOW CURE FOR INSOMNIA
The Victim Took Beer for It, But in
Extremely Moderate
Quantity.

Speaking OF homeopathy" said the
doctor, according to the Philadelphia
Record, reminds me of the case Of
Miss N, who traces her ancestry back
through long line OF Puritans and
has imbibed from them strong and un-
yielding principles as regards saloons
and liquor. Miss N has been troubled
with insomnia, and has tried all sorts
of remedies. Finally, she told me of
her trouble. | suggested that beer
might help her to WOO sleep. She was
Mortified, but at last beer peddler
stopped at her door and left dozen
bottles.
THE beer man returned in about
three days for the empty bottles.
" My dear man. said Miss N, the
bottles are not yet empty
THE beer man waited several days
more and again appeared.
" Your bottles are perfectly safe,
Miss N told him, and then thought
struck her. but If you need them
have one nearly empty which you may
have
" I guess you don't drink 1t very
fast suggested the man.
Why replied Miss N, I take
two teaspoons twice day.
