BUoK FEVER AND BUCK SHOT.

re annual quest for big game is on in forest and field, and
IN Its pas@ns is again emphasized the fact that the season is
aaFked by greater mortality among hunters than hunted. With

TAMMANY HALL.

Tammany Hall is a collection Of patriotic and perspiring
citizens whose lives are dedicated to the uplift and the cause of
ballot reform. Tammany always places the man above the dol
lar when there is any counterfeit money in circulation. It's head
quarters are in New York, but it is suspected of maintaining a
branch office and distributing agency at Albany when the leg
Islaturc is in session.
Tammanys principal business is to disseminate tracts and
other valuable bankable paper Just prior to the city election, and
1t employs a large force Of upLftcrs who do not expect to be e
warded in this life. One of the most popular and improving pas
times In New York City is to shatter the power OF Tanmany,
which rs always done on the day before election. This task is
usually assigned to a committee of earnest and respectable cit
liens in plug hats, who are divided between a desire to purge the
city and serve on the board of aldermen. There are a great many
people IN New York who would like to see Tammany broken up
into mfnltestlmal fragments if they were sure there would be
enough Offices to 60 around.
ramnany IS a secret organization, and is harder to get into
than a last years union suit. Nobody speaks well Of Tammany
III New York except the newspaper which lands the city printing,
and 1t doesn't make profus" floral exhibit on the editorial page.
Iammany never relies upon a spasm of public virtue to carry an
election, preferring the more efficient method of casting the votes
or TIC people and then seeing that they are properly counted by
the friends OF reform. 1t has considerable real property in the
form of assemblymen and congressman and a working agreement
with others in the form of a lease on shares. Tammany's mod
esty IS shown In the fact that it cares not who makes the laws
so long as it makes the general assembly-H. L. Ram.

LITTLE CHILD DEAD.

Samuel Monroe, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. e. M. Hardin, aged 2 years,
is dead. The child had been sick
about two weeks when God called
it to that home where there is no
sorrow and no suffering
He was too bright jewel to
remain in this sinful old world,
and God beckoned to him saying,
"Suffer little children to come I'M
to me, and forbid them not, for Of
such is the kingdom of Heaven"
The grief-stricben parents are
adnonished to dry their tears and
weep not, for little Samuel is safe
in the arms of the blessed Savior.
1t is their happy privilege to SO
live in this life that when death
comes they will meet their darling
babe in that home where there will
be no more separations and where
they can dwell with God in peace
and happiness forever and forever.

In a State and country where we

things that are apparently small
but which are in reality great.

"The importation of the feathers
quilts, heads, wings, skins or parts
of skins, either raw or manufac-

community. Mr.. HAMLET is

Ed. and Oharlle--and two daugh-
tiers, Sarah (Mrs. Alex Fesmire)
and Levina (widow of Steve
Wise.) His wife died years ago.

yard and while there was no for.
