TOLD OF BUCK KILGORE.

His Jutnking Match with a Texas Woman
in \Var Times.

There are men in every quarter of
the Union who will regret to hear of
the death of Judge Constantine B. _Kil-
gore at Ardm0re, I. T. For eight
years. “Buck” Kilgore was a notable
man in Washington. In person he was
the typical Texan. .Above six feet tall,
above sixteen stone in weight, above
the average Congressman -in ability,
above theleverage man in sincerity,

straight as an Indian, and strong as

an ox, “Buck” Kilgore was a marked
It was

from the legislative chamber. to the
House lobby that gave him notoriety.
It was characteristic of the man. He
wanted to go into the lobby; the mes-
senger shut the door in his face. He
knew he had a right to go into the
lobby without asking the consent of
Tom Reed or any other man. He
raised his foot, clothed in an enormous
cowhide boot and kicked the door

~down and went his way. The notoriety

that attached to him on account of
the act was always distasteful to him.

During the war he was ordered home
to assist in gathering up some desert-
ers. One evening about dusk he was
out in the country in quest of a de-
serter who had been off the “layout”
for a year. He was very hungry and
very weary. He called at a house by

the roadside and there he found a wo-I

.man just taking from the spit ‘a nicely
broiled chicken. The savor of the fowl
made him ravenous. He had a Mexi-
can dollar in his pocket, which he had
carried for years and to which he was
much attached, but he was bound to
have that chicken and he pulled out
the dollar and proposed a trade—the
coin for the fowl. The lady said the
chicken was for a sick friend and that
she could not sell it. I

“But,” she continued, “I’ll jump you
for it.”

“What do you mean'Z.” said “Buck.”

“I mean that we will see which can
jump furthest from this doorsill out in-
to the yard, and the One of us that
beats shall have both chicken and dol-
lar.”

“All right; that suifia me exactly,”
said “Buck.”- The dollar was placed on
the dish beside the chicken and his gun
was leaned against the wall by the
door, and “Buck” slung his arms and
made a temendous leap of over twelve
_ He recovered with difliculty, and
when he turned to the door there was
the lady with his cocked gun in her
hands, with the butt against her shoul-
der and her finger on the trigger.

“Now, you just flirt the gravel down
that road, young man, or I’ll make buz-
zard’s food of you before hell can sings
a. knat,”'she ordered. '

There was shoot in her eyes
“buck and ball” in the gum.
“Buck” “flirted the gravel,” his bosom
swollen with impotent rage and his
mouth overflowing with eloquent pro-
fanity.

By this time it was dark. Over in a
field “Buck” spied a gin house. He went
to it and climbed in to the loft, laid
down on the floor and was, soon fast
asleep. After a time he was awakened
by voices down below. He listened
and made the discovery that one was
a. female voice, and a moment later he
realized that she was relating the
“jumping” episode to her companion,
who gave vent to peel after peal of
laughter. There was the chicken and
his dollar which he could see by the
light of the tallow dip. Peering about

and

he saw..'his gun also. There was a big

hole in the floor of the loft, and just
as the man took hold of the dish to
eat the chicken “Buck" plunged
through the hole and seized the gun.
Before they recovered from their as-
tonishment “Buck" roared out: “Mad—
am, you just flirt the gravel back home,
and as for this gentleman he and I
will flirt gravel to the office of the
Provost Marshal. He is the deserter I
have been after for a week.”

There was shot in “Buck’s” eye now.
The woman left. “Buck” recovered
his dollar, ate the chicken, and before
midnight surrendered his prisoner to
the Provost Marshal. It was worth a

journey across the continent to hear

“Buck tell the story.—From the Cour-

METHODS OF TH; J. .’A.'\.=§

You Are N3ver Suie of (setting “'inu. X
. ' Pay for.

An American m-auufactuier,
from Japan, says. that those alarmiscs
who would make the world believe
that, the Japanese can do everyth'ng
don’t know what they! are talking
about, and that the people of the
Flowery Land, unless they change
their entire nature, or at all events
their methods, can never become for-
midable commercial rivals with any
civilized Power. The real fact is that
the Japs do nothing; they only half
do it, and therein lies the cause of
their failure.

The Japs think of nothing but the
pres-cum of what he can make now,
and how, by making his commodities
a little inferior, he can add a few
more cents to his profit. There is no
such a thing as standard quality. You
are never sure of getting the'quallty
you are asked to payIfor. So much is
this so in Japan that a man, seldcm

buys an article without unwrapping

and examining it on the spot. The
correspondent continues:

The Japanese mind is so small that
it is difficult to weigh it with Ameri-
can scales; in fact, it may be said that
it is made up of trifles, and it is the
attention—the labored attention—the
Jap gives to these trifles which makes
him incapable of ever becoming any-
thing more than a unit in whatever he
may be concerned in. As an illustra-
tion of what I mean, I will give ex—
amples which are of daily occurrence.
You want to«buy an article, and you
ask how much it_ is. The answer is,
say, 1 cent. Then you ask how much
the articles are by the dozen, fully
expecting that you will get them for
10 cents. You are not a little amazed
when the merchant tells you thirteen
cents the dozen. You get mad, call
the man a fool, and in-sistvthat you
ought to get a reduction by taking a
quantity. Not so with the Jap; that
is not his way of doing business. It
is the same with the manufacturer.
You give him an order for a hundred
of a kind,,and then wish to make it a
thousand. Immediately he demands
an advance in the price. Should he,
however, reluctantly agree to take the
increased order at the original price,
you will probably get the first hun-
dred articles fairly up to sample, but
as the delivery goes on the quality is
sure to fall off. And this smallness is
not confined to small people. It per-
meates the whole country.—Bostc-n

A TREE THAT SLEEPS.

The Transformation Takes Place in About
Twenty lVIinutes.

Near the western border of Dupont
Circle, in Was-hngton, D. 0., stands a
tree that goes to sleep promptly every
night at 7 o ’c.lock The tree is known

the Albizzia Julibrissan, having
been christened so by an Italian bo-
tanist in honor of the Albizzi family
in Florence. The tree, however, is an
original of Japan and is known there
as the Japanese silk tree, probably on
account of the silky appearance of its
blossoms. Soon after 7 o‘clock in the
evening a general motion is noticed
in the foliage, a quiver or trembling or
the bipinnate leaves. Each leaflet be-
gins to stand up on edge and pairs
with the one oposite. They clasp
each other tightly and then close up
with the other on the petiole, so that
each becomes a coverlet over half of
the preceding one. The entire trans-
formation takes place in about twenty
minutes, and usually at about 7.30 the
respiratory organism of this tree
hangs limp or droopy on thebran-ches.

Small branches kept in a dark room
promptly close at 7 P. M.——New York

_ use or MUCH SALTA BAD HABIT.

Considered Injuvious to the Skin and is
the Cause of Other Diseases,

The use of salt as a condiment is
so general and so universally believed
in .s deceasary that we rarely hear a
WOiCl against its excessive use, but
there are a. multitude of persons who
eat far too much salt—eat it on every-
thing on meat, fish, potatoes, melons,
in butter, on tomatoes, turnips, and
squash, in bread and on a host of foods
too numerous to mentio . To so
great an extent is it used that no food
ls relished which has not a salty taste,
and this hides more or less the real
taste, which is often very delicate.
Now, the amount of salt required in
the system is comparatively small, and
if the diet has been rightly compound-
ed very little is necessary. Some go
so far as to discard its use altogether,
but whether this is wise or not we will
not here consider. What are some of
the evils of the excessive use of salt?
They are to paralyze the nerves of

.taste, or to pervert them so they can-

not enjoy anywhing which has not a
salty flavor, and in addition there is a
direct tax on both the skin and the
kidneys in removing it from the blood.

'Whether the skin is harmed by this

tax we do not know. Possibly it is not
greatly injured, yet we know that few
people possess a healthyskin; but it is

' now pretty well settled that an exces-

sive use of salt does overtax the kid-
neys in its removal, and that the great
number of cases of derangement and
disease of these organs is due to this

use. It takes only a little time to learn ‘

to enjoy many kinds of food without
salt, and we advise our readers and
others to look into this matter and to
try and diminish the use of this condi-
ment so far as possible. We believe
they will be better for it.—Journal of
Hygiene.

LOVE WROUGHT IT.

A Pathetic Tale of a Beautiful Face in an
Old Gathedral.- .

A century since, in the north of
Europe, stood an old cathedral, upon
one of the arches of which was a
sculptured face of wondrous beauty.
It was long hidden, until one day the
sun’s light striking through a slanted
window revealed its matchless fea-
tures. AAnd ever after, year by year,-
upon the days when for a brief hour
it was thus illuminated, crowds came
and waited eagerly to catch but a
glimpse of that face. ’It had a strange
history. When the cathedral was be-
ing built, an old man broken with the
weight of years and cares, came and
besought the architect to let him work
upon it. Out of pity for his age, but
fearful lest his failing sight and
trembling touch might mar some fair
design, the master set him to work
in the shadows of the vaulted roof.

One-day they found the old man

asleep in death, thetools of his craft'

laid in order beside him, the cunning
of. his right hand gone, his face up-
turned to this other marvelous face,
which he had wrought there—~the face
of one woman whom he had loved and
lost in his early man-hood. And when
the artists and sculptors and workmen
from all parts of the cathedral came
and look-ed upon that face they said:
"This is the grandest work of all;
love wrought this!”—Humanitarian.

 

Amateur ~Mining.

A young man from Oregon, another
from San Francisco and a third from
Pittsburg met on the road between
Trinity Center and Coffee Creek. All
had the gold fever, so bunched their

tools and supplies and went into camp

in a canyon of the Coffee Creek dis-
trict. They built their camp-fire be-
side a big bowlder, and the heat
cracked it open, exposing a liberal
sprinkling of gold. They immediately
rushed off to Trinity Center, got their
location blanks, and staked a claim

on the spot.
That afternoon a couple of old mi-

, ners came along, and their eyes opened

when they saw the richness of the
bowlder. They did not say much, but
disappeared in the brush, and an hour
later had staked two claims half»a
mile up the side of the mountain.

The old prospectors had the richesti

ledge that has been found in Trinity
in many a day, and the tenderfeet had
the bowlder that had rolled down the
hill from it.—St. Francisco Post.

 

 

The Editor’s Parody.

looking over his list of delinquent sub-

presents it to view; the liberty head

coin of our fathers, we’re .glad‘ that
we know it, for some time or other,

eagle dollar, the star-Spangled dollar,
the old silver dollar, we all love so

of Canada took very kindly to the na-
tional sport of tobo-gganing. He hates

'ABOUT THE CUBE FOOT. 21.”,

How One Who is Not an Expert Arithme.

tioian Can Find It.
, To find the cube root of any given
number of figures off-hand seems an
almost impossible feat, but yet it is
simple enough when one knOWs how to
. that any
bright boy can learn to do it in a few
weeks.

First he must know exactly what a
cube is—namely, that“; is the result
of multiplying one number by itself,
'and then multiplying the product by
Thus, 3 multi
plied by 3 equals 9, and 9 multiplied by
3, the original number, produces 27,
which, consequently, is the cube of 3.
The cube root of 27 is the original

 

number 3,‘ and to find the cube root

is the reverse of finding the cube. The

'would- be adept‘at this art, should first

study carefully the following figures:

1x1x1— 1 2x2x2— 8 3X3X3— 27
4x4x4— 64 5X5X5'—125 6x6X6—216
7x7x7—343 8x8x8'—512 ' 9x9x9—729

A close study of these figures shows
that 2 multiplied in this manner by
itself results in 8, that 8 multiplied by
itself has 2 as a final figure, that 3

multiplied by itself has 7 as a final;

figure, that 7 multiplied by itself has
3 as a final figure, and that 4, 5, 6 and
9 multiplied by themselves have their
original figures as finals. Hence the
“artist” knows that any sum given to
him, then final figure of which is 8,
must have 2 as a cube root; that if the
final figure be 9, the cube root must be
9, and so on.

For example, give him the figures
of- 74,088, and he can at once tell that
42 is the cube root, for the reason that
74 has 4 as a cube root, as the cube of
4 is 64, while the cube of 5 is 125, much
more than 74,and 088 has 2 as a cube
root. Or give him a more difficult
problem, as for example, the figures
324,369. Then he will see at a glance
that 324 is more than 216, which is the
cube root of 6, but is less than 343, the
cube root of 7, therefore the cube root
of these three figures is 6. In like
manner the final figure is 369 being 9,
it follows that the cube root of these
three figures is 9, and thus the cube
root of he six figures has been shown
to be 69. Any one can test this meths
ed for himself, and a little practice is
all that is needed to make one as deft

,in such jugglery'of figures as the best

“lightning calculator.”

Of course, a skilled arithmetician
could easily frame problems which
could not be solved in this off-hand
fashion, but such difficult tests are
seldom offered by public, audiences,
and, as a rule, the “artiste” are easily
able to answer all the questions asked
of them—New York Herald.

 

N0 PRISONS IN ICELAND.“

Inhabitants So Honest that for 1,000 Years
Only Two Thefts Recorded.

In Iceland there are no prisons, and
the inhabitants are so honest in their
habits that such defences to pr0perty
as locks, bolts and bars are not re-
quired, nor are there any police on the
island. Yet its history for 1,000 years
records no more than two thefts. Of
these two cases one was that of a na—
tive, who was detected after stealing
several sheep, but as he had done sb to
supply his family, who were suffering
for want of-.food, when he had broken

his arm, provisions were furnished to

them and work was found for him
when able to do it, and meanwhile he
was placed under medical care, but the
stigma attached to his crime was con-
sidered sufficient punishment. -

The other theft was by a German,
who stole seventeen sheep. But as he
was in comfortable circumstances and
the robbery was malicious, the sen-
tence passed upon him was that he
should sell all his property, restore
the value of what he had stolen and
then leave the country, or be executed,
and he left at once. ‘

But, though crime is rare in Iceland
and its inhabitants are distinguished
for honesty and purity of morals, there
is, of course, provision for the admin-
istration of justice, which consists,
first of all, in the Sheriff’s courts;
next, by appeals to thecourt of three
judges at Reykjavik, the capital, and,
lastly, in all criminal and_most civil
cases, to the Supreme Court at Capen-
hagen, the capital of Denmark, of
which kingdom the island forms a
part. The island of 'Panaris (one of
the Lipari group) is equally fortunate
in having neither prisons nor lawyers,
and being absolutely destitute of both
paupers and criminals.—~Boston Tran-

CURRENT COMMENT.

the Bureau of Statistics figures out
that the Congressional talk over the
Dingley bill cost the country some

ing of the expense of the extra. ses-
sion.

Mr. Booth-Tucker, commander of the
Salvation Army, is the latest inventor
of Utopia. He wants to raise $500,000
with which. to establish what he calls
a “Poor man’s Paradise,” on lands to
be bought in Arizona or elsewhereon
the line of the Santa. Fe Railroad. His
plan is to divide these lands into ten-

remove to ‘them families of the very

poor from Net York.

The death of Li Hung Tsao may

progress in China. He was not only
personally opposed to Li Hung Chang,
but represented the Conservative ele-
ment in the Imperial Cabinet and his
influence was great. Now that he is
gone it is- probable that Li Hung
Chang will have greater scope for his
liberal ideas and China will be more
readily opened to the influence of civ
ilization. '

If all employers of labor would imi~
tate Leon Godchau, the Louisiana su
gar planter, who has advanced his
wages from 161/2 to 30 per cent. because
of the benefit he derives from the new
tariff, how the ground would be cut-
from under the feet of the labor agi<
,tators and how prosperous the country,
would be—for there is no disputing
the fact that plenty of work, at good.
wages, makes the best kind of prosper~
ity, for the whole country.

 

The difficulty which confronts Spain
is that if her trouble in Cuba is only
a riot, she offers the humiliating spec;
tacle of a great nation unable in two
years and a half to put down that riot
with 200,000 soldiers, a. navy and the
expenditure of hundreds of millions of
dollars; while on the other hand, if
the affair is a war, she must take the
consequences of its recognition as such
by foreign powers. .

kind in the pirates to give this Public
notice of their plans, and the spectacle
of their attack on a. modern galleon
will be worth fitting cut an excursion
to see, if they will kindly mention
place and date.

Mrs. Lease, the well-known Populist
speaker and worker, is to be Queen of
the Fall Festivities at Tepeka, and will
reign for a week. During that time
she will wear a crOWn valued at $20,-
000. This is a queer decoration for a
Populist, but, taking a business view
of it, how much will that crowu weigh,
with silver at its latest quotation, 57%
cents an ounce? Of course, being a
Populist crown, it will have to be of
silver.

The value of strong government as
contrasted with a weak one is well
shown by the difference in the methods
of, handling fanatical outbreaks in
Brazil and India. In the former coun~
try the rebellion has almost assumed
the form of an insurrection and the
crank-led rebels have Won an import
ant victory over the Government
troops, while in India the first blow
struck by the followers of the “Mad
Mullah” meets with a response so vig-
orous as to throw them into confusion.
The uprising is not ended yet, but. that
it will ev er gain such headway as the
one in Brazil is quite beyond the
bounds of probability.

Our Prohibitionist contemporary, the

Voice, has disclosed the circumstance
that the Hon. Grover Cleveland is one
of the twelve signers of the application
of the Princeton Inn for a license to
sell liquor. Eleven names were pro-
cured, including those of a Doctor of

, Divinity, and several of the University.

'professors, the Professor of the Har-
mony of Science and Revealed Relig-
lon being among them. One more
name was needed, and William Mul-
iligan Sloane, P11. 1)., the author of the
1"Life of Napoleon Bonaparte,” was in
Europe. It looked very blue and dry
'11; that neighborhood, all for the lack
lof a. single autograph. Mr. Cleveland
signed. It was a condition and not a
[theory that confronted him.

 

For cleansing ivory piano keys or
knife handles. use a preparation of
two—thirds alcohol to one-third sweet
oil. It is good to remove ink stains
from wood.
