The Quail.

Far above Yosemites' tow'ring domes
This feathered prize in freedom
roams,
And on the heights, in solitude,
All unafraid, brings forth its brood.
The old backbone of Mother Earth
Is his rugged home and place OF
birth;
From the wildness he wrests his food,
The snow bush shelters him and
brood.
Far from the homes of men he lives,
Free as the breath his Maker gives;
Unconquered by a host of foes,
The icy winds and drifting SHOWS.
IT'S when autumn leaves, in gold and
red,
Hang and fall from the trees Ger
head,
That he's full fiedged and in his
prime
How | am longing for that time.
He's the ~epieurean dainty of all that
flies,
None but the hunter may win snch
prize;
He surpasses the ambrosial food of
ancient fable,
When campfre-cooked and far from
table.
Oh, for a mountain quail fried
luscious brown
lo'er glowing campfire on virgin
ground;
With sourdough biscuits from old
dutch
No city epicure has tasted such.
Or broiled just to a shade and turn,
Nut-brown and juicy, without seorch
or burn,
Then seasoned and buttered III tiny
plate
Was such a morsel ever ate?
leo win, my friend, this ~feathered
prize,
Climb up and up toward h skies,
Nor weary If the way be long,
He's only for the brave and strong.
Rejoice as the towering heights you
scale,
No faint heart can win this quail;
Life and vigor must fill your Frame
If you'd be equal to the game.
Grand old October will soon be here
The gladdest month of all the year.
Because then | take the hunters tran
And bag and eat more mountain
quail.

The Question.

What is the question of the hour?

power"
The brewer thinks The price OF
"hops,"
The broker nswer State of crops
The housewife says with no misgiv-
ing,
1.-THE increase in the cost of living"
THE Tango, " declare morallsts.
But Mexico" d~iplomatists.
THE currency" the bankers sigh,
!" IT'S Panama." the English cry,
"The pennant race the bleachers
boast,
THE Jap" say the Pacific coast.
1.-THE tariff" politicians roar,
But Europe mutters Balkan War"
These are the answers. short or long,
But every single one is wrong,
This is the question Of the day,
HAS the slit skirt come in to stay?"

praising their respective railroads

railroads abroad, though at home it's
usually a different story.
The Englishman said:

Our rapides, said the Frenchman,
"go so fast that the stations along
the lines seem continuous. like a city
street"

Good Reading for Sunday
The Road to Happiness.

The Road to Happiness.
This is the road t o Happiness;
Start Now. from Where You Are:
Turn to the right and keep straight
on"
And you'll not find it far.
Along the Path of Willing Feet
And over H~eartease Hill,
Across the field of Sweet Content,
The stream of Glad Good Will;
Then through the lane of Loving
Heart,
The gate that's called Today,
And down the steps of Little Things
Into the Common Way.
And take the Cloak of Charity,
The staff of Wise Employ,
A loaf of Bread of Daily Grace,
A flask well filled with JOY;
A word of cheer, a helping hand.
Some good to give or share.
A bit of song, a high resolve,
A hope, a smile, a prayer.
And in the Place of Duty Done,
Beside the Door of Home,
You'll find the House of Happiness
For Happiness does not roam.
The Angelus.

Dillon Man Dead Beside Track.

Florence, Nov. 20.-Duncan Car
michael, a young man of Dillon, 25
years old, was found by the side of
the Wilmington road this morning
just outside the city limits, with his
head crushed in, his leg broken and
the toes of one foot cut off. The
body was discovered by the crew of
the local freight coming in from
Wilmington and the body had not yet
become cold. The appearances were
that he had been put off train or
gotten off. It is supposed that he
was returning home possibly on a
late night train or a very early morn
ing train. He was evidently sleep
ing on the track and was Struck by
an incoming train or the early train
outgoing to Wilmington. Neither
crew could report having struck a
man at that point: His grip was near
him, the handle broken off, and in
his pocket was a bloody handker-
chief, as if he had wiped a bleeding
nose on it. His family was notified
and his cousin came here on the
first train. The inquest could throw
no light on the tragedy but the jury
declared that he had been killed by
train. He was unmarried.

WANTS TO ADDRESS WIFE.
Man Applies to Court to Secure Him
an Audience.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. Ire
versing the usual order of things in
which wives are supposed to talk too
much to their husbands, NJ. C. Prich-
ard, of Macon, Ca, has invoked the
aid of the judiciary to enable him to
talk to his wife. To that end Prich-
ard swore out a habeas corpus war
rant directing that Mrs. Prichard be
produced in court next Monday and
feels confident that what he has to
say will sweep away all their marital
troubles.
The Prichards have been separated
for some time and Mrs. Prichard has
been living with Mrs. Edward B.
keeley at whom the habeas corpus
warrant is technically directed. Baf-
fled by the refusal of his wife to heed
his plea for reconciliation, Prich-
ard in desperation resorted to the
habeas corpus tactics as a last resort.
Lawyers say he has a good case.

LOOKING FOR BAD BOYS.
Toughest" Specimens Will Be
Given Chance at Reno.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 21.-Juvenile
and truant officers here were to-day
asked by Jack Robbins, president of
the National Fellowship Club, of Chi
cago, for assistance in finding the
toughest" boy in the city. After he
is located he will be offered member
ship in the Last Chance Boys Club, -
and with eleven others taken to a
ranch near Reno, New, where he will
be given an opportunity to become
a good man.
Recently Upton Sinclair, Robert
Hunter, Jack London and Jack Rob-
bins formed an organization having
for it's object the saving of dozen
of the worst boys in the country and
Mr.. Robbins was chosen to select
them. Already bad boys have been
located at Rachine, Wis; Mishawaka,
Ind; East St. Louis, ILL.,; Lima, Ohio,
and st. Louis, Mo. No boys over IL
years old are considered.

Expensive Duck Shooting.

One of the largest duck shooting
clubs in California is supposed to con-
tain 300 acres of land and water.
OF this amount perhaps 1000 acres
are water, says the Outing. A great
deal of the land is. very valuable as
celery land, and were it not for the
club members, it would undoubtedly
all be drained for this purpose. /
was told that the initiation fee in
this club was $4,000, and that the
annual dues were $1,000 per mem
ber. AS there are 40 members, this
gives them $4,000 year for run
ming expenses, and my informant
told me there had never been a year
that they did not have to make a
reassessment. In the year 1912 the
expenses ran to $4,000; so, you see,
this gun club business is not exactly
a poor mans game. This one prop
erty controls five miles of ocean
frontage.

Not Positive About Race for Senate.

Greenville, Nov. 19.-The follow
ing statement was given out by Rep
resentative A. F. Lever here to day
in regard to the race for the United
States Senate.
As to what my intentions are re-
garding the Senatorial race, am
prepared to say this:
~ am now representing the 7th
district in congress, and am chairman
of the committee on agriculture of
that body. To handle this powerful
committee is mans JOB, for it is
the work of this committee in which
the farmers are most vital. inter-
ested, and I do not propose 20 dis
sipate my energies and neglect my
duties by beginning a campaign for
a position that is not now open. No
race for the Senate is now on and l
shall cross no bridges which have
not been reached. I have found no
imperative call upon me to enter a
race that is not yet even begun. When
it does open, if patriotism and my
conception of duty seem to demand
that / should enter this contest, ]
will meet the situation positively, and
irrevocably.
81 am prepared, however, to say
that under the existing circumstances
it is not likely that I shall aspire to
the junior Senatorship next summer
Beyond expressing the probability OF
my intentions l do not care to, 60.
While it is evident that Mr.. Lever
has about reached a definite conclu-
sion, It is equally evident that should
there be any material changes in the
situation he would feel free to alter
what appears to be a conclusion in
his own mind concerning his course
in next years campaign.
