THE vIoLIN's STORY.

Once in q little village lived an old
violinist. He had many friends. They
were the old men of the town. He
loved children and they loved him
One stormy day it was dreary for him.
No children came in to hear him play.
He had an old, old violin. He knew
nothing about this violin. except that
It was willed to him at the death Of
an old friend Of his fathers. He loved
the instrument dearly and often won
dered where 1t had come from. To
soothe his restless spirit he decided to
play. ar..a I'D ae..
He had no sooner taken the precious
instrument when that same thought
came to him again. Where did that
violin come from and what Is its his

He played. His thoughts were far
OF. As his fingers wandered over the
strings sad and sweet. wild and tri-
umphant notes came forth.
They told Of youth who had loved
that violin dearly, who had often
soothed little old mothers heart with
It's touching music.
Then came wild clashing notes. tell
ing Of war; then sobbing, plaintive
tones Of the little mother left behind.
But, bravely shouldering his gun. the
young man went forth. At the last
moment he turned back to take with
him his beloved violin.
After q lonely and patient year Of
waiting the mother received back not
her son, but the violin he had loved.
His faithful comrade brought It and
told Of his dying hero and how he
had also comforted and inspired others
with his glorious music.
Sobbing over her lost son. yet proud
Of him, the little old mother passed
away. giving to the faithful comrade
the beloved instrument.
At last sunshine and happy little
faces peeped In the window. The old
violinist laid his violin carefully away

Enoch said the last he saw of it the

different directions to hunt up the

Some Snake Story

Out OF Kansas, where Walt Mason
slams his Tyre with hands grown horny
from counting the coin he receives for
its product; whence William Allen
White ships out the things he can't
afford to print in the Emporia Ga
zette, because of the high price of lin
otype composition, and gets real mon
ey for them from the Saturday Eve
ningPost; where nobody is ever salts
fled with anything and somebody
thinks something ought to be done
about everything; out from Kansas
as l was saying-comes the following
remarkable story Of a joint-snake,
which would be considered merely an
idle myth if it came from another
source than the Sunflower common
wealth. The Larned Tiller and Toiler
first set it wiggling on its toilsome
way thru the exchanges, and if any
one in Washington can tell bigger
or better, this paper will print it sadly.
Enoch Chase had a peculiar exper-
fence last week while taking the logs
out of the old dugout on Mel Picks
south eighty. He ran across a joint
snake down between the logs and hit
it with spade. Of course every joint
flew apart and started to wiggle off.
Enoch, just for a joke, picked up
one of the joints and put it in bucket
and then slipped behind the logs and
waited to see what would happen. In
about 10 minutes he heard sort of
low whistle and then a rustling. The
head of the joint snake came out of the
weeds and looked around. 1t then
made a peculiar whistle and another
joint backed up and fastened on to the
head.
The head whistled twice and joint

Ia understood that, while the contract
has not yet been signed. it has been

The shells called for by this con-
tract are different from those now BE-

machinery will have to be installed to
take care OF the order. The contract
Is not expected to run more than
eight on nine months, and since the
cost of new machinery will weight

agement, since numerous orders for
locomotives are said to be on the
market, may decide to return i'm

worth from s70,00o.0oo and $50, 900
