HORSE HAS collie; GOES TO
DOCTOR ALONE FOR CURE.

Remember that story in McGuf-
fey's Third Reader where the vagrant
dog whose broken leg was set by a
benevolent surgeon, remembering his
kind and gentle ministrations, re-
turned in a couple Of days with
another canine patient with a dished
wheel and dumbly asked the surgeon
to repeat the performance
Well, Fred Kissel, a farmer near
Mascoutah, close to Belleville, has
a horse who Kissel says, must have
heard that story. Or maybe, it is
Kissel who heard it some time, and
remembered it.
Anyhow, Kissell's horse developed
severe case of collie two months ago
and Kissel took him to the horse
hospital conducted by DR.. r. v. Leu,
a veterinary, on the road to Belleville.
DR.. Leu relieved the sufferings Of
the animal, and in couple of daye
Kissel took the horse back to this
farm.
Wednesday night at 8 o'clock,
Kissel, after a hard days work, put
his horse in the barn, fed and watered
him, locked the barn door and went
home to sleep. At 3 o'clock Thurs
day morning DR., Leu was aroused
from his slumbers by loud and con-
tinuous neighing, whinnying and heavy
stamping of hoofs. Looking out the
window, he was astonished to see
Kissel's horse in his yard, in a state
of great excitement, romping up and
down in front of his door, nipping at
the knob and giving other evidences
of desire to attract the attention
of those inside.
DIR. Leu dressed hastily and went to
the yard. The horse whinnied with

administration leaders in the house
were more confident than ever of vic.

declared every indication tended to
show that the bill would pass by a
majority of at least 70 votes.
Speculation over what Speaker
Clark would say when he took the
floor in a final attempt to defeat the
repeal added to the tensity of the &C.
casion. The speaker is to make the
closing argument.
Representative Adamson Of Georgia,
who was prepared to close the argu-

The administration leaders plan to

about five hours debate on the bill
remaining when the house met, both
sides pressed for the use OF every
available minute of time. The lead.

The above story from the st.
Louis Times calls to mind the ex-
periences of Mike Lowell with a long
horned Texas steer in the early 70's.
Mr.. Lowell now resides in Denver
and for many years was Deputy
L. S. Marshal with headquarters in
that city. When a young man he
rode the plains in Texas and has ac-
companied many an expedition when
cattle were trailed in great herds
for hundreds of miles into the north
ern country from Texas. On one
occasion they had in their herd one
lanky, four-year-old long horned steer
that gave them more worry than all
the rest of the herd combined. He
was wild as a deer when not confined,
and as fierce as a grizzly bear when
cornered. He knew little of civiliza-
ton and didn't care to investigate it.
He did more milling around and
caused more threatened stampedes
than a dozen ordinary steers could do.
He was as feet as an antelope and
was the dread of the COW ponies
used in holding the herd together.
In fact he was 30 wild that he would
permit no human being to get near
him if he could help it. 1t happened
one day that while grazing along the
trail the steer ate something that
didn't agree with him and he bloated
until he looked as though he would
burst. Much to the surprise Of the
cowboys this same wild steer seemed
to know that he needed human aid,
and he came up and laid down in
front of the tent where the men were
eating. Mr.. Lowell states that he
the symptoms and imme-
diately proceeded to stick a knife
in the back of the suffering brute, at
a point where an opening could be
made to permit the escape of the
gas, all of which operation was &C.
cepted by the sick bovine without
protest. In a few moments he was
relieved and just as quick
as he was able to do so, he jumps up
and ran away as though he had re-
ceived n sudden fright. Mr.. Lowell
stated the operation affected cure,
but if there was any change in the
disposition of the steer, he was wilder
than ever from that time on until
the journeys end.

About Voting.

JEFFERSON CITY, June S.-The cam
paign Of education recently inaugural
ed by Secretary Of State Cornelius
Roach which has for its object an exer-
else of discrimination between the
good and bad propositions on the con-
stitutional ballot by the voters next
November is bearing fruit. Last
week there we're 27s ruralnewspapers
in the State that gave to their readers
the substance OF the twelve measures
that are proposed, eight being amend
ments to the Constitution and four
referendum acts. These newspapers
have an average circulation Of 1000
and thus directly reached approxi-
mately $4,000 of the 100000 voters in
the State. The fact that there is
manifestly no probability Of an early
constitutional convention impresses
the average citizen with the necessity
of exercising his Judgment at the
polls on these measures as they ire
submitted separately at successive
general elections. The history Of
constitutional legislating by popular
vote reveals that many measures de-
feated the first time submitted have
been adopted at subsequent elections,
and that voters III recent elections
more favorably consider these pro-
posed amendments than formerly. II
