planned to fasten the flag to the pole
and as they had lost it, he decided,
very generously. to fasten it himself.
So he climbed upon his sled and stuck
the stars and Stripes tightly in a
crack on the top of the post. Then
he sat down on his sled to rest.
Meanwhile Mrs. Lake had missed
Benny. AS soon as the boys came
back home she asked if they had seen
him and Stanley soon guessed that the
little fellow had followed them. So
he and the rest of the boys started
across the pasture in search of him.
They found him sound asleep on his
blue sled by the side of the red post
Benjamin Lake had discovered the
north polel
Fortunately he had been warmly
clothed and though his little face was
almost. blue with cold the boys soon
warmed him up by rubbing his cheeks.
Then they put him on his sled and
II was not long before they had him
home to his mamma.

The Horse Show.

The horse show closed in Columbia
last week, winding up with a grand
bali at the Jefferson Hotel, which was
highly enjoyed by all present. The
show was a success as to horses and
exhibition but the attendance was
small. The management, however,
deserve much credit for the first show,
which in the future will be greatly i'm
proved.
We notice among the exhibitors, Mr..
J. Henry Bodie, of Lcessille, one of
our progressive young men and a dear
lover of fine horses. He had his fine
horse exhibited in class II, WHO made
such a creditable showing that h re-
ceived much praise and a prem .un, of
$500.

Negotiations Of Peace Now

Washington, April 2s.-The Mexi-
can crisis now is centering on the
issue between those who are seeking,
through the good Offices and inter-
mediation Of Latin. America, to find
some middle ground for pacific adjust
ment, and those regard a resort to
arms as an Inevitable consequence of
what has occurred
Throughout to-day two distinct
branches Of activity were manifest
here-that of the ENJOYS of Argentina,
Brazil and Chile, in formulating a plan
of adjustment to be submit tilted to the
United States and the Huerta regime,
and that Of the military and naval
forces Of the United States, which
continue to 80 forward steadily in
preparation for any eventuality which
may develop.

brigade OF five thousand troops at
Vera Cruz was one of the notable

themselves through the slightest
