A Thrilling Drama.
AikssOn Shows Who Hss Beer
Conducting Attssk On Hslss,
Al UhfIRlshes Drama.

Last week the Republican
Press had a full page letter from
Hon. w. o. Atkeson, which show
ed clearly who has been back Of
the attack on Mr.. Hales. Mr.. At
kesOn has shown himself at last.
Mr.. Hales told the Tribune
man the other day that he was
not working for victory at the
expense of party disruption, and
did not think il advisable to an
swer the letter just at present.
There are a few observations
that we cannot refrain from
making in regards TO the text Of
the letter, even if it might be i'm.
prudent.
A disinterested party reading
the letter in the Republican
Press cannot resist the remark
that Mr.. Atkeson could write an
ideal melo-drama Of the ellis
type, with W. o. as the persecut-
ed hero and all other characters
as williams, roaming round
wringing blood from his per
secuted self. All the other char
acters are supposed to wear rub
Der shoes, although We under
stand that they are contemplat-
ing wearing horse-shOes, partly
for good luck and partly that
their clatter can be heard for four
and . half miles.
Taking up the plot Of the
drama, the opening scene show
ed Mr.. Atkeson waiting in the
distance to see il anybody was
going to announce for congress,
then as he saw that the other
characters were a little timid he
came into the middle Of the stage
and declared himself a candidate.
The next development in the
plot was the announcement Of
Mr.. Hales and this made the cast
for one story complete. It will be
remembered from a reading of
the Shakespearean plays, how
ever, that a drama has several
minor stories worked out along
with the main story. Well, the
history OF the play tells that two
years ago there was another
tragedy in connection with the
Butler post-ofiice. Clark Wix bad
been the hero of this play and
the Atkeson supporters the de.
feated Williams. Editor Funk
watched and saw that Mr.. Wix
leaned towards Mr. Hales and
then he saw that Mr.. Parish, OF
Adrain leaned the same way.
Now il seems that Mr.. Parish
had formerly leaned towards
Atkesou but now towards Mr..
Hales. The curtain went down on
the first act with the Republican
Press holding Mr.. Parrish up ON
his mighty pen, and in a thunder
ing voice shouting, Down NIT
der postmasters." -!
After the applause had quieted
and the blood had been pumped
out OF the cellar the curtain was
rung up for the second act.
In the opening scene ot thc
second act Mr.. Funk ! = showr
/ reading statistics, showing th'
great record Of MIR. Ai6oNun an'
then a copy Of the Golden Cit,
\ Register, "a communication frou
a foreign landl was handed him
II After his joy had subsidod s.
that no could read, he read r Ion

racy, Green Backism, Union
Laborism, Populisn and Repub
licanism. He went on and
stated that Mr.. Atkeson should
be victorious because he was po
litically cosmopolitan. This
started the court fool 10 making
doggeral and he sang as follows
AT. has been a Democrat,
An little bit more.
At, was once a Greer. Backer,
An little bit more
At. was next a Union-Laborite,
An a little bit more.
At. landed next as a Pop,
An little bit more.
At. is now a Re publ can.
An a little bit more.
After the fool had been severe
ly chastised the ssse mbly broke
up, leaving the editor, Mr.. Funk,
sitting at his desk smoking
stogies. 1t seems that he fell
asleep and while taking a nap,
DR.. Lyle, the respected and pop
ular chairman Of the county cen
tral committee, came in and
tried TO talk business to Mr..
Funk. He could not wake him
up, however, and left. The doc
tor then called a meeting of the
committee which greatly eXas
perated Mr.. Funk, who did not
know about the meeting-how
could he? he was asleep.
The next scene was a mass
meeting Of the Republicans,
which was not honored by the
presence of Mr.. Atkeson or any
of his retainers. AT this meet
ins the plans of campaign Of Mr..
Atkeson did not receive favor
able approval and for a time the
Atkeson forces resisted.
Then, at headquarters reports
kept coming in that the allies
were joining the forces of Mr..
Hales. The curtain again went
down with the official announce
ment Of Mr.. Atkeson holding the
stage; waving his pen and shout
ing, Il must get busy. Haies
must be beaten one way or an
other"
The third act again opens in
the office Of Editor Funk. The
council had proof before them
that Messrs. Hales. Martin and
Clark Wix attended caucus IN
the Offices OF the Jones Coal Co.,
over a saloon in Rich Hill two
years ago. The reason they
knew OF this was because Mr.
7 b. Wix and Dr. Miller, two ol
Mr. Atkeson's trusted friends,
slept the same night in rooms on
/ the same noor over the saloon.
Not knowing that these rooms
had any connection with the
saloon and forgetting that the
caucus OF Mr.. AtkeSon was held
! in a building in which there was
q saloon, Mr.. Atkcson decided
that he would retire and work
out self Mandatory article as Go
why he should beat Ha.es for tie
nomination. While he was in thg
library with his secretary q De
tie comedy was put on by Funk

A Wasp,s Mistake.

II is generally supposed that instinct
unerringly teaches birds and insects
the best way in which to build their
homes or nests and also to provide for
their offspring. The following incl
dent will show that instinct is not al
ways infalllble:
A naturalist placed three small emp
~ Walls In an open box on a shelf In
an upright position In close contact,
and they were uncorked. A short time
Afterward 1t was a matter OF surprise
to find that these had been appropri-
ated by a female mud wasp. She had
placed a goodly number Of spiders In
the center vial, doubtless intehded to
serve as food for her future brood.
then proceeded to deposit her eggs in
those on either side. She next closed
tightly the mouths Of all the recepta-
Giles with hard lime cement. Having
finished her work, she then doubtless
went on her way, satisfied all mad been
done for her offspring that thought
full mother could do But just think
Of the sensations OF those little wasps
when they come into existence, for,
while starving In their sealed cages,
they can plainly see through the iu-
penetrable glass walls the bountiful
supply OF food which was provided for
their use.

Rescued 4 Foxy Squirrel.

house one day to see two of his feline
possessions crouched In the grass, and
eQuidlstanf between them sat com
mon striped squirrel. not daring to
move hair lest he Invite the sharp
claws OF one or both Of his enemies,
but the anxious brown eyes rolled from
side to side as he calculated his chances
Of escape between the two. The man
walked on toward the squirrel. and
when he came within jumping distance
the squirrel ~lized his opportunity and
leaped upon the mans trousers and
ran nimbly to his shoulder. Then the
man backed slowly toward tree at
no great distance from him. Again
when within leaplng distance the
squirrel jumped into the tree and dis
appeared amid its branches.

: A romantic legend hangs around St
W,nifred well. Cradocus, a neighbor-

she fed from his unwelcome attentions.
The head rolling down the hill rested
near the church. and from the spot the

as the earth opened to swallow up the
assassin ST. Beuno, who was passing,
picked up the head and, with a skill
(which Is now lost to the medical pro

Snuff as Medicine.

"Oh. yes said the tobacconlst, as he
tapped a Jar filed with a cinnamon col
ored powder. Il sell an ounce or two of
SNUFF occasionally-to the old, as a
rule. The young Will seldom look at
snuff. And those who do use it i'm
pute medicinal virtues to 1t. Thus old
fashioned watchmakers, gem cutters
and tailors think that pinch OF SNUFF
now aud then improves the eyeslght.
They think IL refreshes and fortlfes
weary eyes as a cup Of tea refreshes
and fortihes weary brain. Others
think snuff cures cold. Others take
II for the headache. Others still be-
lieYe that 1t wards off contagion. Per.
sonally | believe that SNUFF taking is
less harmful than smoking. Its effect.
too, is pleasanter than the effect OF
smoking-it Is most soothing and
fascinating effect once you get used to
it-but the habit is untidy and there
fore 1t can get no hold upon us In this
aesthetic age."-I.os Angeles Times.

Hunting tho Msribou.

Hunting the marabou b attended
with great difficulty. as the bird pos
sesses wonderful cunning and often
contrives to outwit the most skillful
hunter. With laughabls dignity IL
measures the ground between itself
and its pursuer and takes very good
care not 10 exhaust itself by too rapid
flight If the hunter moves slowly the
bird at once adopts an equally easy
sace. but II the hunter quickens his
Steps the bird is off like an arrow. 1t
Is very difficult to get within gun
range Of this calculating creature, but
the natives adopt a novel means OF
capturing II, which the bird, with all
its astuteness. is unable TO compre-
bend and falls an easy victim. A
tempting morsel Of meat IL tied to the
end of a long stout cord, which the
skiIlfuI hunter filings to a great dis
lance. as he would lasso, the bait
falling as near the fleeing bird as be
can aim It. He then conceals himself
hastily behind a bush or crouches low
on the sand The marabou, which al
ways keeps its eye on the hunter, See
ing him vanish. quietly stops and de-
yours the bait, when 1t is easily Sc
cured by the hunter, who runs toward
II, coiling the rope as be goes.
