COLONEL KNEW THE BOYS.
Fact Made Him Success as Collection
Supervisor.

Bishop Talbot, the Cowboy Bishop
who has recently told of his strange
life as bishop among the cowboys and
miners of early Wyoming and Idaho,
had many an amusing experience and
made hosts of devoted friends.
An incident at the close OF one or
his meetings in the dance hall Of a
mining town, is thus described:
Another hymn was given out, and
ton with my blessing, when Col.
Burns, my landlord, stepped forward,
and in low butt distinct voice said:
Bishop, haven't you forgot some
thing?
what do you mean?' said I.
why, the hat replied the col
onel. 1T won't do to forget the hat,
for yesterday was pay day, and these
boys have lot of money, and If you
don't get it the saloons will, and it is
much better for you to have it.
Every good said. Have you any
suggestions, colonel?'
"'Only this, bishop: I wish you
would give us about five hymns. !
want plenty of time. I do not want
to be crowded. The boys are a little
slow on collections
81 stepped over to the organ, and we
started in. The colonel presented the
hat to the man Immediately on my
left. He was sitting on the edge Of the
platform. He brought out silver dol
lar, called Wheel in the language
of the camp. The second and third
men to whom the hat was passed fol-
lowed the example of the first, each
giving a dollar, but the fourth man
seemed nervous. and hesitated while
he fumbled in his pocket. After con-
siderable delay he brought out quar-.
ter.
40, put that back. Come, now, Bill,
the bishop is not after small game to-
day. White chips don't go here. He
wants wheel out Of you. Hurry up
"The hymns were being rapidly
used up, and at last the colonel re-
turned to the platform with the hat.
His face beamed with satisfaction.
After the service 1 asked him why 1t
took him so long.
CO. he replied, bishop, you see,
charge UP every Teller accordin' to his
pile. l know these boys. Most on
'em grub with me. made one Teller
cough up ten dollar gold piece, and
you will find a good many fives in the
hat
81 need not say that the collection
was generous one"

MADE HIS MEANING PLAIN.
Indians Answer a Real Triumph OF
Quiet Sarcasm.

George Vaux, Jr., of Philadelphia,
has been appointed member of the
board of Indian commissioners. Mr..
Vaux told reporter the other day an
Indian story.
There was a certain commission
err" he said, who treated the Indians
with rude scorn. One day a chief en-
tertained this man in his tepee, tell
ing him over the tobacco many quaint
legends.
"One legend concerned a plague Of
grasshoppers. The chief told elo-
quently how grasshoppers overran
the land, eating the grain, and how
the medicine men ayerted famine
by offering silver grasshopper to
the Great Spirit, whereupon all that
deluge of grasshoppers disappeared.
But the commissioner scoffed at
the tale.
care you Indians such fools he
said, as to believe such rubbish

THE WHOLE FAMILY,
Mother Finds a Food for Grown-U ps
and Children as Well.

Food that can be eaten with relish
and benefit by the children as well
as the older members of the family,
makes pleasant household commod-
ity.
Such food is Grape-Nuts. 1t not
only agrees with and builds up chill
dren, but older persons who, from bad
habits Of eating, have become dyspep-
tic.
A Phila. lady, after being benefited
herself persuaded her husband to try
Grape-Nuts for stomach trouble. She
writes:
about eight years ago I had Sc
we're attack of congestion Of stomach
and bowels. From that time on, 1
had to be careful about eating, as
nearly every kind of food then known
to me, seemed to cause pain.
-Four years ago / commenced to
use Grape-Nuts. / grew stronger and
better, and from that time 1 seldom
have been without it; have gained in
health and strength and am now heav-
fer than l ever was.
"My husband was also in a bad con-
dition-his stomach became so weak
that he could eat hardly anything with
comfort. / got him to try Grape
nuts, and he soon found his stomach
trouble had disappeared.
my girl and boy, 3 and years old,
do not want anything else for break
fast but Grape-Nuts, and more healthy
children cannot be found" Name

Butterflies in Battle.

"a battle of butterflies" said the
Japanese viscount firmly.
"Impossible!" cried the woman on
his right.
oh" the viscount insisted, "the
thing is authenticated 1t happened
OH August 20, 1889. Tales and poems
without number have been written
on it.
"On the afternoon of August 20 two
opposing armies of the butterflies
fought an aerial battle between
Nojima and Kavasaki-Mura. The fight
continued till sunset, when the small
er army turned and retreated, the
victors pursuing it till all were lost
in the rosy sunset haze. The ground
beneath the combat was thickly
strewn with wounded and dead war
riors.
"The battle drew a thousand people.
1t occurred about 80 feet up in the
air. The spectators were amazed and
horror stricken to see these gentle
blue butterflies graphing and strug-
Cling furiously and silently in a blue
blizzard above their heads"

Told by Nature Students.

The nature students-everybod is
nature student nowadays-weret try
ing to Guido one another.
Eagles when the sun is overhot
shade their young with outstretched
wings" said the first. con August aft
ernoons ! have seen a mother eagle
stand patiently two full hours, her left
wing spread like an umbrella, while
in its cool shade her nesting slept"
Squirrels" said the second, can
tell whether nut is good or bad with
out opening it. A chestnut, walnut,
q shellbark-they lift it in their little
paws hold it to their faces a moment,
then if it is bad cast it aside. How
do they tell? By the weight, by the
sound? l incline to think they do it
by the smell"
"Ostriches never SET" said the third.
"They lay their eggs on the pale
Saharan sands and the sun does the
rest. But before the ostriches depart
from their eggs they place on the top
of each pinch of sand, for they know
that the germ will mount to the top
and that the suns heat would kill the
germ were it not protected"
"A trained elephant" said the
fourth student, danced very badly at
a matinee performance and was &C.
cordingly beaten cruelty by its master.
That night, hearing a shutting noise
outside, the monster crept forth and
there in the moonlight he found the
elephant carefully practicing it's dance
steps"

profits is payable on the Sth of the pres

cents a share, or $4,000 in all. The di-
rectors also decided 10 distribute TO the
present stockholders l651 shares of
stock which the company bid in dur
ing the period when the Century com

for the funds with which to prosecute

the property up TO n high standard of
proficiency. The day of reward for
the stockholders has arrived, and from
all the present indications, the direct
