Gentle Persuasion

Many stories are told of the eccentric dOng> and sayings of an old clergyman who lived In Maine some years ago. At one time there had been a fight among some men. one of whom was Berlously hurt. A trial took place, and the old minister. who had seen the uf- fray. was summoned as a witness.
 What was Salsou dOlug?" was the first question.
 "Oh be was slashiug around
 "Weu, sir. just what do you mean by that"
 Why. be was knocking about him here and there"
 Now. sir, kindly tell US plainly what Salsou did to this man."
 "Wly. he-he entlced him." said the old minister slowly.
 "Eudced him. HowT
 He euticed him with a crOwbar. He used the crowbar to persuade the man to eutjce him-and by a series of pokes and blows he succeeded in doing t." said the minister mIdly.-YOuth's Companion.

SPIRIT OF SPORT
 IS DEAD IN DAWSON

Commenting on the failure of the Dawson people to raise the funds necessary to have the skagway team appear in that city, The WhitehoEse Star says:
 "As it was said Of ancient Rome, 80 may it be said of Dawson: Her glory has departsd.'
 "Arrtva.s by late stoame from Daw- soa tell of an attempt which was made there last week to raise money to eu- able them to accept the proposal of Judge 'S' Tanner, of SSagway, to take his baseball team to Dawson, but 1t was no go. Three men came forward with s50 each and after tha, the town was all in. Two days additional soliciting revealed but $50 more and the canvass. CTS were forced 10 give up.
 No wonder Paddy Welch got out of sha, J0vE 0o the first boat. He had associated with 'bloods' during he previous three months snd felt lone some there.
 So far as Uncle 'Si' Tanner is con- cerued be may as well put his bhll players to picking berries in the rock ribbed hills that surround his town
