that it but bum on it. A crowd ofmen
were sitting in a saloon one night and a man
got up and commenced to relate an experi-
ence of his own. it ran like this: 'I wanna

owan. Many of the passengers did not luc-
cead in getting into the life boats and some
of us had to jump into the water. I

enough to support me. Recovering my

support eating I to possibly keep me afloat
until i could be picked up by some parsing

go down, and taming my head, discovered
that another man had grabbed hold of my
lumber. In a moment or two we were about
to sink. lurgai him to be careful, but he
would not heed me. We drifted along for
some minutes, when I made up my mind that
one or the other of us would have to godown,
for with such pressure it was only a matter
of time w hen we would both lose our piece of
timber. I finally edged my way up to the
man and choking him, made him release his
grip. lie fulloll, and lsuppose drowned, for

men, it is the truth.’
‘ "”Thon, the western congressman went on
to relate,‘ 'a big man, with lbushy beard and
fierce looking eyebrows, arose from a corner
and said: ‘.\las for you, it was true. I was
the man you pushed that awful day from the
pic( c of timber. Ila! ha! you thought you
had drowned me; but I live to face the man
who treated me so. Kind fortune, when I
arose from beneath the angry waves, sent
along another piece of timber, and, though
bruised by you, 1 bad strength I nough left to
cling likoan 0y stcr to my timber, and In a

For :nearly ten long years I have been hunt—

you five minutes to prepare for death—more
than you would give me in mid occan.’
"The crowd seemed disposed to interfere,
but the big man with bushy beard draw two
pistols, and called out: ‘Stand back, every-
body!’ and with the death dealing weapons
he covered the party who had narrated the
ocean experience. The latter pleaded for
mercy, and eventually the big man with the
bushy beard said: ‘1 will were your lIfe only
on one condition.’
“ ‘Nume it!1 gasped the frightened man.

Senator Jane-Ir Great Luck.
The senator (Jones of Nevada) has always
been ready to take great chanced. ll»; be-
lievcs sincerely in the outside help that comes
from no one knows where to shape circum—
stances around the path of a lucky man so
that success is certain. As an illustration of '
tho Imliariuck which he has had at all times
during bislifu when he has once given his
nnnd to hunting fora specific result the sena-
tor related a story of his curly life when he
was a sheriff of a certain county in Califor'
nia. He said:
"We set out one day to go up a great cau-
yon which wasnear my headquarters. There
was no road to it; it was amoet fatiguing
route for any one to travel over; it was as
difficult, owing to the necessary climbing up
and down, to travel six miles in this canyon
as it would have hem twenty-live upon
the open highway. I had one of my (lcputies
with me. We were out seeking for certain
violators of the law. About midday we had
traversed half the distance necessary to go
and we stopped for a rest. I pulled out
my IIIcerschqun' pipe, for l was very fond
of smoking even their. I loaded up with
tobacco, when to my consternation I found
that l bad no matches and no mate-
rial for making a light.
not a smoker, and of course he had no
matches. I was almost dying for a smoke.
I hated to give It up, and in my wondering
what} should do, I turned around and i saw
a match lying on the groundin the sand
near a little stream that came down through
the canyon. The sight of that match actu-
ally frightened Inc. I looked all nroundto
see if there was any uncin sight. 1 looked
up to see if there was anything passing over
that way, and then I walked up and picked
up the match. lsaiil to myself: ‘0! course
it won’t light; it‘s been lying on this wet
sand.’ But It did light, and 1 had my smoke.
I never know anything to beat that piece of
luck, but I‘ve had in many close calls in my
life such similar evidence of good fortune
that I can but believe to a certain extent in
good and bad luck."—.\'cw York World
Joel and the Steer.
The people of East Killingly, in the ad-
joimng county, think that a pretty funny
thing occurred in that neighborhood not
Mega. Mr. Joe] Thomas, who is the hired
man of an East Klkingly farm, has a reputa-
tion for mixing himself into every dilemma
that can find no other unfortunate person to
tool with.
One morning a few weeks ago Joel went to
the barn to yoke a pair of very large un-
tamed steam. The yoke was large and cum-
brous and the bows were big, but be got the
wooden loop over one atccr's bead and pinned
him. With the next steer he had a wrestle,
slipping about in the treacherous yard in his
effort to hold the animal by one born and
carry the heavy yoke and with his free arm.
Finally, by an Inexplicable mischancc, either
the yoked steer twtsted the other how over
Joel's head and below his arms, orclse Joel
fell into it, he doem’t know which. A mo
merit later a neighbor approaching the house
beheld the unhappy hired man yoked up with
the frantic steer, his wild n-d face protruding
through the big on how, skipping and plung-
ing at terrific speed down the read toward
him Joel copied the neighbor, and at every
jump he roared in sputtering tones:
“Head as oil, -- it! head us off."
The neighbor succeeded in doing It,
ing the team by dint of very active work
into an angle of a stone wall. Then he ner—
vously hopped around to the user’s head,
meaning to release the animal before Jccl
was quite killed It was at this point that
the hired man manifested the striking origin-
ality of his mind and hlsdisgnst at the neigh-
bor’s lack of guuiption at the same time. 119
