AS we have said, the compliment to
journalism involved in his Willingness
to become actively identified with it
is both considerable and significant. 1t

sponsibility in every editorial room in
the land. Less distinguished editors
will welcome the accession and the
competition, and the gain will fall on

AS managing editor he could never

of an unblinking eye on the type and
the countenance of the page, of quick

noon and the jury retired about 8
o'clock to deliberate upon the evidence
introduced. Many witnesses were put
on the stand to tell of the manner in
which they lost money during fair

pockets on the streetcars and on the
grounds of the fair association.
McQuade was his own attorney and
plead his cause before the jury in an
excellent manner. In examining the
talesmen he exercised his peremptOry
challenges as though he had been
practicing at the bar for years, sh wv
ing a knowledge off the ways of the
court which surprised many of the
spectators.

W. h. HOrnaday. IN sG1bDerA
When we laic hands upon Hufrman's
prize and examined #. a strange and In
teresting story OF wild animal life was
revealed About three months previously.
! that is 10 say. about August /. that deer
had been leaped upon from above by q
mountain lion. It's right ear was fear
fully torn. and there was big wound on
the top OF the neck. where the skin and
flesh had been torn open. The main beam
OF the right antler had been broken OF
half way up, while the antlers were still
in the velvet. The end OF the broken
antler had healed over in q way that
enabled us TO fix the date OF the encoun-
ter with a fair degree Of accuracy. Both
the hind legs had been either clapRed or
bitten, but We could not surely deter
mine which.
II is our opinion that when the noun
tain Hon leaped and fastened upon the
neck CT his intended prey the struggling
buck either leaped or fell over a cut bank
and landed upon his back. with the puma

executive branch Of his antler. he so Sc
riously injured his assailant that the
mountain lion was glad TO escape-VFthout
doing further damage
A few days later we found about two
miles above our camp, close beside rths
dry bed Of He'll Creek. the story OF an
other wild animal tragedy. On tiny bit
Of level bottom land. which was well
planted with thick clumps OF tall sage
brush, there lay the we'll gnawed remains
OF a mule deer. Close beside the skeleton
there was round hole IN the earth, Ike
a post hole. made by the waters Of the
creek, about two feet in diameter and five
feet deep. This hole contained about two
thirds OF the hair that once had covered
the deer. AS sure as fate, that yawning
hole. which lay Ike a hidden trap under
the long grass and the dropping branches
Of the sage brush. had been the undOing
OF the luckless deer. II seemed TO US

deer had landed heavily on that spot.
with both its forelegs IN the hole, and
before 1t could scramble out, a wolf, or
several wolves. had pounced upon It, cut
its throat In quick time. and afterward
devoured the animal as it lay across the

on Right Living.

Little Sermon on CheerfuIness and
on Right Living.
Prom the Yazoo Sentinel.
Too many people live in the dismal past.
lingering long by old tOmbs OF regret and
remorse. Not a few OF us live in the fu-
ture, hoping for the best and yet fearing
the worst Why can't we live IN the
present? Happy in the achievement OF
to-day-yesterday is past and tomorrow
We may never see-to-day alone is ours.
And what matters the great hereafter?
We are convinced that the soul survives
and that love and hope and happiness
are the stars which God has set in sllken
skies 70 guide Us ever onward and up
ward. Yet the enjoyment Of to-day
blessings and to-day's comforts VIII no
wise prevent US from our share in the
greater blessings Of eternity. There IS
enough Of love and life and Joy in the
present moment for every human soul.
Disaster and failure may come to Us to-
morrow: and grievous sorrow and trouble
are sodded mounds Ger which Time has
said the service Of kindly compassion.
We need not mind the trouble past or an
ticipate that which is yet 10 come. The
evolutionist may be right. We may have
lived here once before and in q thousand
years we may pass this way agaiu-but
that does not concern US now, even II il
were true.
II you have a kind act to do-do It to-
day. II you have duty to perform-per-
form it to-day. II you have opportunity
for enjoyment. grasp It now. Crowd to-
day with every hope and Joy. Leave the
dead leaves OF the past and gather the
fragrant flowers Of the present-seek not
TO open the bitter bud OF the future You
can't retrieve the losses Of the past by
long faced sorrow to-day, and sackcIoth
and ashes give you no better hope for
the future. Whatever your error may
have been, whatever fate may have mark
ed your efforts Of last week or last
month, or last year. you can plant a
firm foot on that grave Of error and let
regret give place 10 resolve. The Naza-
rene never gave better advice than when
He admonlshed his followers 10 take no
thought OF the morrow. Sufficient unto
the day Is the evil thereof. and the right
use Of the present is the only way where
by you can be we'll prepared 10 meet the
future. Out Of the solitude Of the past
and shadowy hopes OF the morrow glows
the rosy morning OF to-day. and though
we cannot reclaim a moment that is gone.
opportunity has never bound a moment
that's 20 come; so that with firm. un-
shaken faith, those who rightly employ
the present have the best assurance of
the future. Let us live to-day .
