He refuses absolutely to be a pessi-
mist, does j, j. Brown.
Monday night Brown went possum
hunting, and nobody ever so slightly
tainted with pessimism goes possum
hunting. of course.
Now and then an unsophisticated OPP
timist goes possum hunting-after
which he most generally becomes pes
simist One possum hunt frequently is
sufficient to breed great gobs of inerad-
icable melancholy in heretofore al
together happy and light-hearted per-
son.
Any man who can get his own con-
sent to so possum hunting second
time either is an unshakable optimist
or a cheerful idiot.
And no man with sense enough to
get by lamp post in the middle of the
dig road would think of classifying j..
j. Brown in any variety of the latter
catalogue of human beings.
Anyway, Brown went possum hunt
ing over in Carroll county last night
and he and his party caught six big
ones.
I'VE let six more get away" said
Brown, explaining things today. IN
fact the very biggest one in the entire
lot got away!"
He was fine, mighty fine-the one
that got away" said Brown.
Nobody said anything everybody
smiled.
You've got to be Joy while Brown
is reciting-Glooms can not live in his

Brown also is some fisherman, and
tells some fish stories now and then
equally as entertaining as his possum
stories.

and had fifty thousand pink" bal

London, Feb. 3.-The American con
sui at Tabriz. Mr.. Gordon Paddock. had
a decidedly exciting time during the
recent fighting between Russians and
Persians there, according to a letter
from an old resident which has Just
reached London.
The American consulate is just in the
shadow Of the old citade, popularity
called the ark" The ark was one of
the principal targets for the Russian
artillery ire, and 1t was shelled holly
for several days. Many shells burst
over the consulate buildings and
around Mr.. Paddock's house, but fortu-
nately no one was injured. and the
principal damage was the destruction
of the flagstaff from which the stars
M stripes were flying.
During ten years in the consular SER
vice Mr.. Paddock has been a spectator
Of many interesting events in far parts
Of the world. He was stationed some
years at Seoul, in Korea. and there wit
messed the naval battle when the Rus
sian cruisers "Variag' and "Korietz'
were sunk by the Japanese al the be-
ginning of the Russo-Japanese war.
He saw the debarkation of the Japa-
nese forces; was afterward at Hardin
in the times when it was unsafe for a
white man to venture into the streets
after dark. and in Mukden witnessed
the most stirring days of the recon
struction'' of Manchuria.
