The late Joseph Jefferson used to
say that his career came very near
being nipped in the bud In a small
westerd town. He at that time was a
member of a small pioneer company
which progressed by means of three
"bull teams" from one mining camp
to another. They were always hearti
ly received by the miners and cow
boys, who readily paid the five dol
lars in gold to witness their perform
ance. Mr. Jefferson was the tradition
al melodramatic villain, and in the
third act was supposed to kidnap "the
child." The supposed mother, hear
ing Its cries, rushes upon the scene
just as*he Is about to escape, and
fires a frultles shot from a revolver.
Upon this particular occasion all
had gone well until this scene was
reached, and the audience, many of
whom had never before seen any kind
of a performance, sat as if spellbound.
At the crack of the mother’s revol
ver, however, the spell was rudely
broken.
"By heaven, she missed him!"
red-shirted miner in the front row
shouted, drawing his own "six-shoot
er" and leaping to his feet. "Round
to the back door and head him off
'fore he can get a boss, boys!" he
yelled, and. following him, half the
aiMlence stampeded for the exit.
The excitement was finally allayed
by the "mother" and the villain’s ap-
to $1,000 a year has been attached to
the legislative appropriation bill
which a sub committee will report to
the house committee on appropria
tions. The 8ub-Commlttee has com
piled figures showing that $2000,000
Is paid annually to clerks In Wash
ington over 65 years old and that 77
per cent of these clerks receive more
than $1,000 annually. '
Let us all 8queeze.
Take life like a man. Take It as
though lt were—as U Is—aa earnest,
vital, essential affair. Take It Just
as though you were born to the task
of performing a merry part In It; as
though the world had waited your
coming; take lt as though it were a
grand opportunity to achelve, to carry
forward great and good schemes, to
hold and to cheer a suffering, weary—
lt may be a heart-broken brother.-
Charles H. Spurgeon.

A Hyena and a Wolf met one day in
a narrow path in the forest. By a
little squeezing they could have pas
sed each other and gone about their
business, but the Wolf bristled up and
called out:
"Ho there, you base catiff, out of
my path!”
"Base catiff yourself." replied the
when have you become better than
I?”,
"You are nothing but a Hyena."
"And you are only a wolf."
"Don’t you hear me telling you to
get out of my way?"
"But you don’t own this path. It
belongs to the Elephant."
"I say it belongs to the Buffalo.”
Then they called each others liars,
rebaters and deceivers and grappled in
fury. In the struggle they rolled
down the bank in front of the Lion
who bestowed many vigorous cuffs
upon either, and said:
"That path belongs neither to the
Elephant nor to the Buffalo, but to
me alone, and neither of you have any
business there. Keep off in the future
or I’ll break your backs."
