A Bird Of . Bird Story.

~ W W okVTYs
Clayton, M~o.-Clayton is still marveling
over the queer story told by 1-year-old
Elotse PRESS, who says that a mocking
bird guided her home after she was lost
on her way from school.
A fairy story that had been related by
her teacher, Miss Williams. caused her to
follow the bird after a sort of inspiration
told her that She had seen it often near
her home.
Eloise is the daughter of Mrs. Louisa

brightest pupils at the Clayton public
school. Her home is on Central avenue.
four blocks west Of the school and one
block north of st. Ferdinand avenue. the
street which eads direct from the school
to her home.
"At 3 o'clock Friday afternoon I left
the school," she said to a Post-Dispatcb
reporter. IT walked west on st. Ferdi-

road. I was thinking about something
our teacher had told us and / turned into

I didn't know what to do. All of a sudden
l saw a bird that was flying round and
round right over my head. ! remembered
that Miss Williams read us a fairy story
a few days ago.
1T said that when q little girl was lost
she could find her way home il she would
follow a bee or a bird.
The hooking bird kept flying around
and 1t came so close to me that it almost
touched me. 1t seemed to me that it
said. Come with me, come with me-
When 1t flew right in front Of me I
could see that it was a bird that I saw
every day in our yard. 1t always sits in
a tree there and sings when I go to school
n when I come home. 1t seems like It
tells me good-by and waits for me to come
back.

turned around and followed it. At first It

FRONTIER SKETCHES.


Moccasin Bill and His Big Feet
One of the unique characters of from
tier Colorado was william H. Per-
kins, more widely known as Moccasin
Bill. who passed away some time ago
leaving trail Of "reminiscences be-
hind him. He early enlisted as .
government scout. performing dis
tinguished service on the border line
between the oontendipg armies until
p,ace compelled him to return to the
prosaic occupation of farming, but
not for long. The oppressive eondi.
tions imposed by civilized society be-
came intolerable to his restless nature
and he struck out for the mountains
bringing up at Rosfta, In the Wet
mountain valley. Here for a time
he engaged In mining and hunting
big game. which then abounded in
that region. For the first time he
found the wild environment his ma
ture craved, Which gave full scope
to his peculiar and extraordinary
powers.
During the winter Of '8s. while
mining above timber line, the provi-
sions becoming exhausted, 1t became
necessary to send his comrades to
town for supplies. These worthless
imbibed too freely Of their favorite
beverage and seem to have forgotten
their errand. At least they failed to
again show up at the mine. A ter
rife snowstorm blocked the trails and
Perkins was left marooned alone on
the mountain with but soanty sup.
ply Of provisIons. After consuming
everything in camp and boiling the
coffee Is he expressed It, "till it
wouldn't color the snow,'' he set
out for the settlement over the IN.
broken trail which had been prsoti
oally obliterated by the storm. His
feet. which were incased In only .
thin pair of moocasins, were terribly
frozen before he had half comp eted
that memorable journey.
On arriving he found It impossible
to remove the moccasins without
stripping the skin from the flesh. 30
he kept them on for several weeks un
til his feet were healed. In hobbling
about town tho soles became worn.

which was accepted. The investors
employed an expert to report on the

WEST POINTER
IS SUGGESTED
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT MIGHT
BE ASKED TO DETAIL AN oFFI-
GER AS ADJUTANT GENERAL.

A plan to have the Federal Govern
ment detail an officer Of the regular
army to act as Acknowledgement Of
the Territory If Col Jones fails to
accept the position, is being serious
ly talked of among the members of
the National Guard of Hawaii. That
it would be for the best interests Of
the local organization is the opinion
all who have spoken of the matter
and there seems TO be some likelihood
that the scheme may go through.
For some time past attempts have
been made to induce the Federal Gov
eminent to detail a West Point gra-
duate to assist the National Guard of
the Territory, but success has been
lacking. With the Legislative appro-
priation of 5000 per month for an ad-
jutant-general, however, it is thought
that all objections from the War De-
partment would be overcome. An Off
Ger could be detailed for this posi-
ton, would be given leave for that
purpose. He would gain the title of
control through the position given
him, which would mean a good deal
and would also have a very pleasant
duty at a salary which would prob
ably be higher than that given to
most officers in their regular line OF
duty.
The old cry of carpet-bagger would
probably be raised against any such
move, but those in the National Guard
believe that the gain made by having
a regular officer in charge here would
be so great that this cry would be
overcome. The suggestion has been
very well received in all quarters SC
far and certainly would have the eff
feet of bringing the National Guard
and the regulars here into much clos
err contact, which would benefit the
local organizations.

BIGGEST LAW
FEE EVER PAID

LOS ANGELES, April 10.-The larg-
est law fee ever paid on this coast, if
not in the world considering the brier
time required for the services rend-
cred, goes to the attorneys for Mrs.
Lilly Bennett Baldwin for forcing a
settlement of 'Luckys" will. 1t is ap-
proximately 100000, and will be paid
out of the estate to Ex-Governor Henry
y. Gage and Walter J. Trask of this
city, and Garrett McEnerney of San
Francisco. The former is to receive
100000, Trask 500 900 and McEnerney
the remainder This fee plays a rather
unique role in that, besides compensat-
ing the attorneys for work already
done, it is also in the nature of re-
tainer. Hereafter Mrs Baldwins at
torneys will defend the estate against
any claims coming from any other
sources-in other words, meet all COM
ers seeking to break the present set
Element The attorneys fees on the
other side will not be nearly as large.
Mrs. Baldwin will receive $1,4O0,0OO
for herself, a far greater amount than
has ever been admitted, and she is APP
parently well satisfied both with this
and the heavy fee her attorneys re-
ceive, as her main demands were prac-
tically met in secret agreement
