KLUSTER OF
BOLL’S EYESHOTS.
Col, John Foster was in the city
today attending a meetingot' the
:!m rd of Couoty Commissioners.
Co , I'osler had read Mumford
!'(tiers Blackbird story and told
me one about th* myriads of ‘Thi -
teen year locusts” that are
swarming and singing all over his
district. I faih.d to take it down
m detail, but if my memory serves
me correctly it set forth these
tacts.
*
* *
•‘I never saw so many locusts
in all my life. Just think of it.
ir-re last week my old bell cow
tailed to come up for a day or two
and finally my folks became
alarmed, and had me to organize a
searching party. After scouring
the woods for half a day we found
her.’’
*
* *
■‘She was standing in a fence
coiner over behind the clover field
and could riot get out because the
locusts had stacked themselves up
n.io a wall or dam across the base
ot the corner. Os course we were
supprised but lUr surprise gave
way to indignation when upon
closer investigation we discovered
a few of the ringleaders were try
ing to milk her.”
* *
“ And that’s act all that is re
markable about this state ot facts
for when we noticed the meekeyed
failhful old cow shako her head
and try to ring her bell, we <1
no noise, and upon examinat ion, we
discovered that an “executive com
ui'tteo” of the locusts were swing
ing on to the clapper a la “Kerfew
shall not ring tonight” styh •
Then there was a canvassing com.
mittee that was over in the clover
lot ; these w*re busy sawing wood
and carrying clover through th*
ci-ucks of the fence to keep the cov\
busy in the manufacture ot
milk. ’ •
* *
I asked him how the cow was
enjoying herself and he repii*d
“why she was skeered *o death —
why when she left home ft few
days before, she was a black cow,
but when we found her she looked
like she had been peddl’hg milk
.-.hake through a blondine factory.'’
***
Mr. Foster, we think, rescued
the Cow by letting the locust dam
• evt-rely alone. He just let down
ihe fence —which naturally put
i he cow “in clover.’’

Hon. Tv-rrell Speed is not ouly

he is in the race for the legisla
ture. lie says he will not run as
a democrat nor as a populist but
as a “bulger”— and promises to
-ho v the boys a few tnx on expert
“Egg liustiD.’’ I must respectfully
call editor Coopers attention to the
latter,
*

Hon. Terrell Speed,the “bulger ’
candidate for the legislature, has
issued a challenge to meet all oth
er candidates m a joint debate on
tin- subject of Woman Education .
reireil says he is in favor of giv
ing the woman tne finest, educa
tion on earth for, Pays he. “we fool
men are everlastingly going to
’em for advice and we ought to
educate’em so that they km ad
vise us according to euphony. Lei
