According to the statement of T. B. Carter, the Walnut Grove. Arizona, stockman. a mysterious disease is causing the death of large number of the spring calves, the nature oi which the catilemen have been un. able, despite diligent investigation, to determine.
 ''Over a dozen calves have died in my neighborhood during the l,aS' "l days Mir. Carter said and So fl- no one has been able to account for the disease.

BeHHaPs Outwitted.

Many years ago an ingenious plan
was adopted by the grand duke to rid
Florence Of beggars. It was proclaim
ed that every beggar who would ap.
pear in the grand plaza at a certain
mentioned time would be provided
with new suit Of clothes by the duke
free Of cost. At the appointed time the
beggars Of the city all assembled, and
the grand duke, causing all the avenues
to the square to be closed, compelled
the beggars to strip of their old
clothes and gave each one, according
to promise, a new suit. In the old
clothes thus collected enough money
was found concealed to build beauti-
full bridge over the Arno, still called the
'Beggars' BRIDGE" and the city for the
time being was relieved OF the beggars
by which It had been previously over
run, as none would give to the we'll
dressed individuals who impiored char
ity, not believing their tales Of distress.

Have you married again." she
asked
The man shook his head.
"Ahr' sighed the woman. "You still
love me-"
'No," said the man, IT love myself"
He was asked to explain.
Bondage taught me the value Of
freedom" he replied. II am answer
able now only to myself. I come when
I please, go when I please, do what
please and need not make explana-
ton. no longer divide my pleasures
by two or multiply my worries by the
same number. What earn is mine
and, when I contemplate It's possible
reduction, need fear for myself alone.
I have no great joys, but then have
no great sorrows."
And lover inquired the woman.
II have been married." answered the
man.-Channing Pollock In Show.

"Oriented" Orieutals.

knowledge Of direction seems to be
instructive with the Burmans, says the
author Of "A People at School," They
always reckon by the needle, not by
relative position. They do not say
Turn to the right" but Turn to the
west" If table in a room has two
tumblers on it, one Of them will be the
east tumbler, the other the west, and
the table itself will be not the table
near the window" but the table in the
east of the ROOM" So they speak Of
the north or south side Of a street or
Of tree, not the shady or sunny side.
Even in rain or mist they know the
direction at once. An English traveller,
walking in the Burman forest on a
foggy morning to find all trace of the
road wiped out by rain and every ap-
parent means Of ascertaining direc-
ton gone, was at loss what to do,
but his Burman servants knew at
once. '"That is NORTH" they said, point
ing, land that is east. Our course lies
between" and straight to the north
east they marched unerringly.

That was remarkable talk by
Judge Wofford over in Kansas City a
short time ago in sentencing negro
murderer. He said: swell, you're
guilty of murder all right, but you're
apoor ignorant, no account black man,
and I don't want to hang you. You
have no friends. You have no one to
plead that you were insane when you
killed that man. If I sentence you to
hang you will hang just as sure as
there's God in heaven. There will
not be whole lot of women circulat-
ing petitions to save your neck. There
will not be fool lot of men writing
letters to the governor to save you.
No one will send you flowers. You
will just be forgotten until the day set
for your hanging, and then they'll
hang YOU" The judge might have
sentenced him to death by hanging,
but he didn't: instead he gave the pri-
soner thirty years in the penitentiary
and impaired to the whole case flavor
by interpolating the extraordinary
mixture ofsatire and genuinely humane
sentiment quoted above

The Birds Bill Was Locked.


A curious bird tragedy is told about
In the London Field. A man found q
yellow hammer dead In his yard at
the foot Of wall. The bird had flown
against It with such force as to be
stunned. Not only that, but the upper
mand1ble had been bent back, and In
the Strengthening out the sharp point
was driven down through the lower
bill and locked, thus booming the bird
to death by starvation. The man sent
the head to the Field. A good many
similar accidents have been recorded,
but it was always heavier bird, whose
weight made the springing Of the bill
easier. A good many Of the birds were
found in starved condition, showing
that they died lingering deaths from
want of food. Birds that fly against
the lighthouses have the skull bones
crushed and die instantly, but others
are stunned only.

State Laws.

IF you should have your choice
whether to die in the Empire State or
in good old New Jersey, don't fail to
select jersey" remarked a Hoboken
lawyer the other day. "Over there"
said he, I'VE still do business on lines
laid out by the common law. For ex-
ample, under the laws Of New Jersey
husband is entitled to all the per-
sonal property left by his deceased
wife. Across the river the case is
quite different, because under the laws
Of the state of New York half Of de-
ceased wife's personal estate goes to
her children and the residue reverts to
her husband. Only where there are no
children is the hubby the whole thing"

An ambulance surgeon had curl
GUS experience the other night. He
was summoned to q police station to
examine an unconscious prisoner. The
prisoner, very muddy and disheveled,
lay on the floor Of the cell rooms. The
physician bent over and examined him
and then, rising, said in a loud stern
voice:
.aThis mans condition is not due to
drink. He has been drugged."
A policeman turned pale and said in
timid, hesitating voice:
I'm afraid yer right, sir. I drugged
him all the way from Carney's saloon,

The effect of the new railroad rate
bill is felt in many places since it
went into effect in part last month,
and after the lst of anuary the changes
will be more pronounced. It is evil
dent that the railroads are going to
stick to the letter of the law as nearly
as possible. Many franks that were
in operation and were good month
ago have been cancelled and employees
of express companies and other con-
Germs having large business with the
roads have been denied the time
honored privilege of riding on the
trains without pay as we'll as enjoying
a franking privilege that was de-
MED the private individual. Let every
man pay for what he gets and it is
possible then that the rates will be
more reasonable to all.

Captured by Johnson.

Editor Huntington of theS.Windom
Reporter was guest at the banquet
rendered recently in st. Paul by the
American Bar Association. He met
Gov. Johnson there, and although a
republican the Window editor makes
the following confession:
"While don't like Johnson's poll
tics-they are democratic and he never
poses as a republican, must con-
cede that at such function as this
John shines as we'll as any republican
governor we ever had, and has warm
greeting for his enemies the republi-
can boys who just now are shouting
themselves to death to elect Cole. In
fact I believe that John shines as we'll
as Cole would at such functions and
has to his credit some acts of kindness
done when power left the wretch an
unconquered hour The last saw of
the governor he was running as any
other country editor would to catch a
street car for Saltwater where he was
due to make an address at the county
fair.
ut has been the custom of republi-
can governors to talk at the fairs.
Even our Sanity Van SAINT did such
things and there was no politics in it,
but Johnson always talks politics at
such places, for he says things that
please the people, magnetizes them,
gives them something eloquent and
logical without mentioning politics at
all. For this I cannot endorse him.
He ought to talk politics in the good
old campaign way and give Cole some
stunts. But John is little too cute

highest and descending to the lowest
not even excepting the servants. On
taking leave the order is reversed.
You first kiss the servants, then the

an affecttonate kiss on the mouth with.
out distinction Of rank, age or sex is
the only mode of salutation known in

in the primary election campaign, the
newspapers have avoided the humor-
Gus situation they were in two years
ago when some certain man was Sc
lected and supported with all the
vehemance of a campaign against an
other party and the result in many in
stances was that the same papers had
to uphold the man they had previously
denounced or else bolt the party ticket.
The Brown County Journal and the
Springfield Advance are the only

decided sides for any one candidate,
