Forever past is the old year Its
history has been written and it's record
has been finally made up. Whether II
be a chronicle of glorious events to
make proud the hearts of those who
have participated in them, or whether
the pages are darkened by incurable
errors, 1t Is closel now and cannot be
changed. Look back over the twelve
months just past and form conclusions
OF the events which came and went
with them, but they cannot be undone.
glorious achievements to make glad
the heart and doubtless intersperced
with them are deeds Of selishness and
cruelty and crime which sadly mar an
otherwise lovely picture, these cannot
be replaced with charitable deeds and
brighter scenes, but they are fixed for
ever and interchangeable. So 1t Is with
ell things, there is scarcely a sweet
without the bitterness mixed In and
there is scarcely a picture Of sunshine
without a cloud to cast its shadow
over some portion of the scene Now
is the time for New Years resolutions

HIS GOOD NAME.
BY HARRY c. ERNEST.

ciation.l
Van Rastle was a gentleman who
had struck streak Of bad luck. He
wore threadbare suit. hat with a
hole in the top, and his trousers were
| much frayed. Nevertheless be prided
himself that a gentleman is always~a
gentleman even in rags and his own
| breeding would always be recognized.
And it was recognized so long as he
lived where he had been born and
brought up. But Van Rastle conclud-
ed to try his luck in the wild west. and
| when he came to that country, where
pedigree is not considered, he found
himself on the same social basis as a
stage driver or cowboy.
Van Rastle was prospecting on Clear
creek, in Colorado. or. rather. he was
digging for mine he thought he had
struck. One night While sleeping in
the little cabin he had thrown togeth-
er for temporary protection he was
awakened by the sound of footsteps
without. Presently he saw where his
door was streak Of perpendicular
light and knew that the door was be-
ing opened. In a few moments the
light had become square. in the cen
ter of which was a crouching figure. 1t
crawled into the cabin and had it's
hand on what few dollars Van Rastle
possessed when the matter came to Il
crisis by Van Rastle ordering him to
throw up his hands.
The next scene was a western court
room, the judge sitting on the typical
dry goods box. The prisoner, an i'll
favored young man with crafty eye,
stood apart. The judge addressed the
prisoner:
''Now, then, Tom Baker, what you
been tryin' to rob this man for?''
"Hain't got right to plead guilty
or not guilty?" asked the prisoner.
ooh, you been tried so many times
you know a lot about law, don't you?'
Reckon I pleads not guilty.
"How air you goin' to prove SIGH rot
as that?"
II don't need to prove it. You got
to prove that robbed him.
"Waal, that's easy. Step up, Mr.
Evan Rastle," the witness supple
mented with some of his former pride
in his name
"What's that fust part of it2''

swell, MIR. Dan Hustler, tell how
this galoot robbed you.'
II heard a step Without
"How didn't you know it wasn't

'He craWled in and had his hand on

His money, jedge! Jes' 8 If a mis-

II ordered him to throw up his
hands. He did so, and, grabbing him
by the COLLAR
"Jedge. he's got to prove l had a

'"Then l marched him down here to
Empire and turned him in to the com
mittee.''

judge sternly. 1T was easy 'nuf to
prove you done it,
