M. Harris, of Rock Hill, Mo-, who
was born in Westport II years ago,
was the one-legged bedstead which
I have seen in the log cabins of the
very earliest settlers. A stout post
was let through an opening in the
puncheon floor about six or seven
feet from the corner walls; holes
were made in the logs correspond
ing to the height of the post; at
tached to the post were poles run
ming each way, which were mortised
into the holes in the walls; Stats
rived from green timber were laid
from these supports and the bedding
arranged upon this crude structure.
Bread bowls (troughs, we called
them,) were basins and utensils of
that kind were scooped out of solid
blocks of wood with a tool called
a gouge. Pals and small tubs, call
ed 'peggins' and 'noggins, were usu-
ally home made"

SOME PIONEER MAKEsHIFTs.
Town of Kansas City was Surveyed
with a Grapevine.

When the town of Kansas City
was first laid off in lots in 1889 by
J. C.. Mccoy he did the measuring
with a grapevine rod in length. He
used that because he had no chain.
There was not a chain West of St.
Louis that was fit for surveying with.
The grapevine, pliable and light in
weight, served the purpose quite as
we'll as a chain would have done.
The pioneers of Kansas City and
vicinity had to use many makeshifts
for they were far from civilization
and a source of supplies for even
the common necessities of life.
There is a woman in Kansas City
to-day who came to Westport in the
fifties, and later went with her hus-
band to Baptist Wea Mission near
Paola, Kans. She recalls many OF
the curious makeshifts of those days
which she personally used.
Among them was an ear of corn
which was used as substitute for a
rolling pin. 1t was crude, but ef-
fective
eve were young and full of hope
she said, land it is mistake to
suppose that we are entitled to any
sympathy because of our hardships.
Life stretched away before us. 1t
was like a party eternally camping
out. We enjoyed it ALL.
This woman remembers that the
first summer spent in Kansas it was
necessary to wait until the prairie
hay crop was harvested before "fill-
ing" could be obtained for the mat
tresses, and that they slept on blank
cts. But they slept we'll in those
pioneer days.
She recalls also that when mice
infested their cabin, they had no
mouse trap, and it was 45 miles to
Westport. A simple substitute was
devised with the aid of thimble
placed under the rim of the saucer,
small end down, with bait attached,
and no mouse was the wiser.
A hopper filled with wood ashes,
the accumulation of months, was a
feature of every home. Water
poured into the hopper emerged at
the bottom a very good grade Of lye.
Later combined with "soap grease, u
also the accumulation of months, and
the pioneer had his supply of soft
soap.
"The most singular of the make
shifts of the pioneers" said Mrs. N.

FIENDS FIRE INTO HOUSE.
Two Negroes Accused of Shooting Up
Farmers Dwelling.

Two negroes giving their names
as Trapp and Johnson were lodged
in Winnsboro jail on charges of
shooting into the house of Mr.. Kohn,
a prominent farmer of the lower Sec
ton of the county. The negroes will
be given preliminary hearing in a
few days. 1t is alleged that the
prisoners fired through the window
of the house. While none of the
shots struck anybody, Mrs Kohn and
her infant child had a narrow escape.
The men are charged with assault
and battery with intent to kill.
