withal, often accompanying her father
in rough rides of miles when looking
for stray cattle.
Once a week Mr. Reed went to Denv.r
to sell the dairy products, and purchase
articles of food that could not raised £or>
the ranch. Wtllso frequently accompanied
him and the two women thought nothing
of being left alone in the bouse until long
into the night, as the distance to the city
made the drive a long one. It was on
one of these evenings in the early fall,
just as they bad completed their supper
and the mother was arranging the table
for the hungry father and son, that Ihe
younger woman went to the barn, ,tbe
back of which was immeodiately on the
road, to see u calf that was sick.
Suddenly she beard the voices of men
in the road near the b irn. Listening and
roarcely during to breathe, she heard the
words that almost froze her with terror.
“The old tnun keeps his money box in
b drawer in the old bureau, but the old
woman curries the key.”
“IL w can wc get at it?" iral.el another
voice.

through un o, en window, went to it closet

were always kept loaded lor emergencies,
concealing them in the fold* of her dress.
Hastily rejoining her mother in the
larger room, she was just in time to s:e
t wo buriy-looking ruffians enter tlto door
The taller of the two men demanded
supper, "and let it come quickly, too,"
he said in a menacing tone. The brave
girl placed tho foo 1 on the t*bio, knowing
the scoundrels would satisfy their hunger
bcfere putting their purpose of robbery,
and possibly murder, into execution
She then sat down in front of them and
watebed them. The moment their meal
was completed she suddenly thrust the
muzzles of tho pistols in their faces,
threatening to shoot if they moved.
Expostulations and protestations were
in vain; the heroic girl stood there with
•yes flashing and determined, for what to
uer seemed ages. The poor mother, as
soon as she comprehended the situation
overcoat- by her great terror, had fainted
and was lying on the floor.
At last the sound of wagon wheels was
heard coming toward the house and in|i
moment the father and brother entered
tho house in company with an unelc «h >
had arrived in Denver that day from
their eastern homo in Pennsylvania, and
by merest accident met Mr. R.-ed on
Sixteenth street, in Denver. As soon as
they comprehended tho situation they com
pelled the ruffians with revolvers at theit
heads to submit to being bound with
ropes and wher. daylight came they were
taken to the county seat and placed in
jail.
Tho brave girl, as soon as she was
relieved from herjerrible guard duty, and
the horrible strain on her nerves was
taken off, went into a succession o!
hysterical spasms, and it was for a wee.
that her reason if not her life, was
despaired of. She eventually recovered,
however, and afterwards married a
wealthy Denver gen: man and is now
living iu Qucene City. The two men
were reeognized as old offenders, in fact
they ware fugitives from justice from a
distant county, and afterwards served a
long time in the penitentiary in Canton

lion Samuel J. Randall was received
enthusiastically in Louisville. Some of
the main points of his speech were these:
“There ought not to be a dollar of reve
nue collected from the people of the
United States in excess of that necessary
to economically administer the govern
ment. * * The country which imports
more th in it exports must become em
barrassed. The great objects of govern
ment to a free people like ours is to f ave
such laws cm< ted, and honestly and in
telligently admini’tered, as will promote
the great objects of trade and c itnmerce
of tho country. * * If I understand
aright tne duties of’ the incoming admin
Stratton, it means to give us a bu iness
government.’’
Gov. Cleveland, in reply to a letter
from G. W. Curtis, president of the civil
service reform league, lays down tho fol
lowing principles: “While Democrats
may expect all properjeonaidcration, the
aslections for office not embraced in the
civil service rules will be based upon suf
ficient inquiry as to fitness, rather than
upon persistent importunity or self solic
ited recommendations. * * Removal
from many offices, not within the civil
service rules, but disconnected with the
policy of tho government, should not be
in-.de on partisan grounds. But many
officers have forfeited their claims by be
ing offensive partisans and unscrupulous
manipulators of .local ;party manage
ment. All mutt be taught that efficiency,
fitness and devotion to duty, are the con
ditions of their continuance in public
place.”

s 3 It is said that dull timea are not known
by the agents for the great publishing

they always give the public that which is
keenly appieciated and nt prices that all

their agents are doing well on several
new lines. 'They need many more new

Experience is not necessary, for Messrs.

be remembered that an agent can do a
handsome business without being away
from homo over nights. Another nd
vantage—it costs nothing to give the
business a trial, and an agent can de

NEW YEAR.
Mb Editor: There war, lots of folks
wished tne a happy New Year and I
wished everybody a happy New Y ear,
but it’s generally nearly, always a time
when I aint so happy, for, some how or
other. I can’t keep from thinkin a'out
how mueh older I am, and bow many
hearts are sad that were glad last year-
I know many good people, and badd ones
100. that are dead and were dead last
year, and how many big things I was
gain to do last New Year that I aint
done yet, and more'n likely I never will
do, and how many little things 1 warn t
goin odo th t 1 have done. It's a time
of tlie year when the past seems to git
bilious, and its stomach tour, and it
pukes up ail the little dirty »cts, and the
mean thoughts, and unkind words, ana
blighted hopes, and uukept promises,
and -nattered r--so utions, and it makes
a fellow tired to look at all of it.
There was u lot of us fellows settin
round the fire to night, talkin over ail
tiesettlings, and sayitt what we w s
goto t i 10, ani witat we wa-n t goin to
do, and what we oughtar dene, and otic
fellow said he wasn’t goin to make n..
promise* bout what he'd do, and would

lie didn’t quit CU*stn; and 1 *ai l 1 wasnt
coin to drink no iiquur, uot till the ex
cursion to Lookout mountain, no how;
and tne i we gut to talk in about liquor,
and then to discus-in about the election
we had here to day; an i 1 just think the
8 ville folks hive begun a powerful
good re :ord for ’BS. and if they keep on
like they’re started out they’ll hive a
young millenntuia here by thi» time next
year
\\ elt»d n ’ively time of it to-day,and it
•w.s a sight to see how interestea some of
the folks was over it; bu. some of ’em
didn’t even vote, and nobody didn't fail
out witit them about that, they was ex
cusable; for some of them was candidate*
in.d some had bu-iness away an J cou'dtit
be hero, and some hadn't beet: here long
enough, and some was afraid they would
n't be on the side what beat, and it would
make them unpopular; so 1 reckon it’s
all right any how: for a majority of the
m m ,ofi>- turned out, amt 1 guess it was
to., e.ilil lor th. women to come. If they
