CAPPED STORY OF AMERICAN
Pat Proved Easy Victor In What
Might Be Called a Contest OF
Boosters.

An American gentleman. spending
his holidays in county Roscommon.
Ireland, fell into conversation with
Pat, who was feeding his hens.
Il guess, Pat, you haven't as good
hens here as we have in the states"
Perhaps not" said Pat
"IIl tell YOU" said the Yankee,
about a hen my mother had. She
went out one day and ate a feed OF
corn, and returned and laid IL eggs.
She went out next day and ate a
feed of corn, and laid IL more eggs.
She went out the third day and
ate more corn, returned, and laid
another IL eggs. She sat on the 80
eggs, and Matched ~ chickens out of
SO eggs. Now, that is the kind of hen
We have in the states"
Well" said Pat, I'll tell you about
a half-blind hen my mother had. She
ate a feed of sawdust, thinking 1t
was oatmeal. She went to her nest,
and laid 4 plank IL feet long. She
ate more sawdust next day, and laid
another plank IL feet long. She ate
more sawdust the third day, and laid
another 12-foot plank. She sat on
the three planks, and Matched three
kitchen chairs, four parlor chairs, one
arm chair. a sofa, one table, and q
mahogany chest OF drawers. Now"
said Pat, with a twinkle in his eye,
that is the kind of hen we have in
Roscommon."

REPARTEE IN SENATE HALLS
Legislator from Nevada Rather Got
the Worst Of Conversational
Exchange. Z

Senator Newlands of Nevada was
making a tariff speech, and in it's
course referred to labor conditions in
Plttsburg, where, he said, men were
compelled to work seven DAYS a week.
IL or Ia hours a day, Sunday and
every other day. He drew a parallel
etween these conditions and the
statement that protection helps the
American workingman and that Pitts.
pure is supposed to be the greatest
beneficiary of the protective eariY
system.
Senator Oliver. newly from Pitts
burg. was restless during that re-
cftal, according 20 the Saturday Even.
Ing Post. Finally he jumped up and
denied th2t any Pittsburg workingmen
were compelled to work on Sunday ex-
cept the blast furnace men. Then
he said he had been in Nevada and
that 1T was customary to work seven
days a week there, there being no
such thing as Sunday observance.
1T is a state shouted Oliver,
where the faro table and the roulette
table are a part of the Punishment

barroom, but of the office part of the
estabiishment-and the guests cannot

HE TRANSPLANTED A POND
Dean Holes Story Of What ar Enthu.
siast viii Do to Have a
Garden.

Many a country laborer, as Lord
Rosebery said, will do much for the
sake of a garden, but few perhaps
would be willing to go to such pains
in the pursuit of their hobby as did
an enthusiastic NAVY with whom
Dean Hole once came in contact.
This man, having obtained the POI
sition of gatekeeper on a railway,
found himself the possessor of a bar
rem gravel pit as an apology for a gar
den. The dean, who knew the spot
well, visited it some IL months after
the man had taken possession, and the
sight which met his ayes astonished
him.
WAS it a mirage l saw upon the
sandy disert? There were vegetables,
fruit bushes and fruit trees, all in Wig
orous health, there we're flowers and
the queen flower in her glory"
"'Why!' | exclaimed, what have you
done to the gravel pit?'
"Lor' bless YER he replied, grin.
ming, I hadn't been here a fortnight
afore snapped it for a pUnd!'
"a further inquiry elected the fact
that this most ardent garden lover
had, after an agreement with a neigh
boring farmer, removed with pick and
barrow his sandy stratum to the depth
OF about three feet and wheeled it TO
the margin of an old pond, which had
been gradually filled II with leaves
and silt. The rich, productive mould
from the pond he had taken home 70
his garden, replacing it with gravel
and leveling as per contract.

Wins Damage Suit

Deadwood-After a three days
sharply contested trial, George Ben
ner obtains from a jury in the local
circuit court a verdict of $500 dam
ages against the c. B. & Q. railroad
for damages alleged to have been sus-
tanned by his timber in the Galena
district through a fire caused by an
engine spark. Both sides fought the
case hard and introduced a mass Of
testimony, experts on opposite sides
testifying in direct variance as to the
value Of the timber destroyed. The
railroad made an especial effort be-
cause of the fact that the government
has a similar suit pending in which 1t
seeks 1000 damages.

Old Settler Killed

Rapid City-While branding horses
on his ranch eighteen miles north of
Belle Fourche, John Porter, an aged
rancher and pioneer settler, vas the
victim of a peculiar accident that re-
suited in his death. A vicious animal
f%oundered against a pole which swung
around and struck Porter on the head,
crushing his skull. He died a few
hours later and the remains were
brought here. Porter was seventy
six years of age and anne to the Hills
in 1877. He was unmarried.

TESTING STRENGTH or BRAIN
Simple Means by Which One May De-
termine or Which Side Of
Boundary He is.

IL the theory of a New York mag
tstrate is correct 1t is easy to ascer-
tain ones state of mind without hiring
an expensive alienist and submitting
ones self to an embarrassing volley
OF questions. Any one who has a Turk.
Ing suspicion that perhaps the strain
OF life is too great and who wants
to know the truth without evasion or
polite subterfuge, has but to close the
eyes and try to put the tip Of the in
dex finger of the right hand on the
end of the nose. According to the
metropolitan judge this Is an unfailing
test of sanity. Whoever is able to do
this at the first trial is presumably
sane. II the finger and the nose do
not touch there is a screw loose some
where
II would perhaps be well for every
n who has a conscientious regard
for the welfare Of others and who
wants to maintain al even mental bal
ance to apply this test every day, say,
the first thing in the morning on aris-
ing. II the finger and the nose cone
into conjunction promptly all is well.
II there is a failure to occult 1t is time
to take advice. So simple a test can
DO conducted secretly. It Is unneces-
sary to ask. rs my nose on straight"
No mirrors are required. No one
need be called in to help. Just touch
the nose with the eyes shut and ths
day begins sanely. That will be o
great comfort to many a man who now
rises without perfect assurance that
he is on the right side of the faint
line thai marks the boundary.
