with them lives fo- another week.

Shavers, cOlored.
Th9 negro was Tincoln's first body
guard after his election to the presidency
and until after the breaking out of the
war was with him through the day and

into the stories Of Antietam, the Wilder
Eess, Chattanooga. Chlckamauga, NlCks-
burg and their thousands of incidents re-
counted on every corner in the groups
gathered from South Temple TO seventh

his family servant. Then swinging from
the stories Of peace and ante-war times,

into the tales of recruiting throughout

When the war broke out Lincoln feared
for the mans safety and would not per-

the cOlOreu regiments being formed for
the war and his appointment to the re-

David Forbes, an EngIishman, with 4
Party, Is the First to Make
Tour.

David Forbes, an Englishman, has
had the novel and somewhat exciting
experience of being the first person
to traverse Arabia in an automobile.
His route was from Alexandria, to
Bagdad, and the journey consumed
nine days. It takes the ordinary trav-
eler three days to drive from Alexan-
dretta to Aleppo, and from there to
Bagdad it is Fl days by caravan. The
trip is not a safe one to take. Forbes
had a party of five, an English chauf-
feur, an Assyrian mechanic, a Bagdao
cook, an Arab and himself, and trav-
eled in an ordinary 40-horsepower
touring car. Gasoline was sent ahead
to the caravan stations, and 1t took
1876 gallons for the trip. It is said the
motor used a gallon in IL miles, which
seems improbable, but allowing ten
miles to the gallon the journey was
1860 miles, and this was done entirely
without maps. The irrigation bitches

Objection to Women Golfers.
Farmers don't mind renting their
fields to golfers, but they are strongly
opposed to women"
"Why?"
Because woman golfers are always
losing hairpins and hatpins and stick
pins in the grass. Follow the trail of
a womans foursome with pushionful
a woman's foursome with a pincushion

But why does the farmer mind
that?"
Because afterward when his sheep

swallow pins. Pins, needn't tell you,
are injurious to the health"

saw anything so awful as the look in
that pixies eyes as it hung there.
Already Uncle Ashdod's boots were
slashed to strips and every blow of
the pixies tail cutting him to the bone,
while he hadn't seemed to make any
impression on the tail of the pike, and
he was giving himself up for lost.
He didn't have knife or any sort of
weapon to aid him. And then, as a
sort of last resort, he took one hand
from the limb and tickled the pike in
the ribs.
Uncle Ashdod says he had never
heard that pixies were ticklish, but he
had never heard that they were not,
either, and when a man is on the
verge of death he will try anything as
a last resort, so he thought he might
as we'll try tickling the pike as any,
thing else.
Well, at first the pike seemed more
amused than anything else. 1t sort of
screwed up the corners of its mouth
and grinned, but in a minute or two 1t
began to chuckle inwardly. So Uncle
AA0AuOu hOpC 446AI VA t1Ch1lu6 IL. no
says it was the most weird thing he
ever saw in his life, to see that pike
chuckling away as if it was in the
best humor and at the same tine
glazing at him hatefully with it's eyes.
So he tickled it little harder and it
began to gasp between it's teeth but
it did not loosen its hold on his
beard in the least. So he tickled it
little harder and said: "Ketchy.
ketchy-ketchy." Well, that was too
! much for that pike. It's sides began
to heave and palpitate with laughter,
| and its tail curled up and it tried to
throw it's head back the way a man
does when he hears an awfully good
one and is going to give mighty
hearty laugh, and it began to gasp.
When that happened Uncle Ashdod
says he began to have hope, and he
pulled his finger back and sort of
cork-screwed it toward the pike and
said:
Creepy mouse. creepy mouse,
tickely, tickely, tickely!"
At the last "tickely" he says he
dug his finger into the ribs of the
pike, and the pike seemed to simply
double all up with laughter, and sud.
denly it opened its mouth and shout
ed: "Ha! Ha! Hal" and turned blue
in the face and fell spang to the
ground as dead as door-nail.
Uncle Ashford says that of course
he hated to take life in that way. but
he was sort of forced to do it IN
self-defense I asked him what he
really thought of the fight and he said
he was still too wrought up to say.
I asked him what he thought the pike
thought of fight of that kind, and
he said he guessed the pike liked
it; he said the pike seemed tickled
to death.
