"Apache Bill, scout and tough, took up as permanent residence out yonder beoense a bartender got the drop on im one night and added about two ouin4s to Bill's weight in the shape of ` lead placed where it would do the most good. Comstock Charley, a half breed Chey- enne scout, tough and general all round bad man, also became a quiet citizen of the place where they planted 'em in those days on account of a puncture put into ham by Henry Whitney, sheriff. "Bill.Hickok (Wild Bill) gained his fame at Hays City, west of here, as also did Jim Curry, who later on shot and killed Ben Porter, an actor, at Mar- shall, Tex. I knew Jim Curry when he was an engineer on this road, He he- ctares enamored of a woman, married her, and they settled down in Hays City, keeping a little restaurant there. There was a regiment of negro soldiers quartered at Fort Hays. The negroee took offense at Jim Incense he refused. to serve them with meals at his house. They came around to Olean out the place. Jim woad to shooting, and when he quit Uncle Sam's army was deci- mated to some extent. - "Wild Bill was a nervy man and did some killing in his day, and he might haus lived longer if he had not grown careless. Yeti see, Bill, like all men of his class, was always expecting trouble and was always on guard. Bill for years had never allowed himself to get into a position where his keen eye and ready revolver were not master of the situa- tion, but be did allow the drop to be got on him twice to my knowledge. The first time I was present, and the next • time—well, Bill was was gone himself when the second time came to a climax. "I will tell you the story of the time I was present. Now, I never knew Bill to pull his gun to kill unless it was in self defense or there was no other way to secure the peace and q iiet Bill al- ways hankered for and would have— peaceably if he could, forcibly if be must. Jim Curry was a coward, but he was determined to acquire a reputation as a badman, and, as Bill Hickok held the championship of the world at that time as a killer, Curry thought he might safely run a bluff on Wild Bill. "8o be sent Bili word be would kill him on sight, not that he bad anything against Bill, bat Curry had gone into the killing business, and be proposed to hold the center of the stage and show that he was displaying energy and apt- itude in bis business. Bill paid no at- tention to Curry's talk, not considering him in his class, "Oise day I met Curry on the street in Hays. We went into a saloon kept by >it little, nervous, excitable German. Wild Bill's tall form and long, black hair loomed up at a table in the back part of the room. His bank was toward Carry and myself. Curry walked over to the table, standing directly behind Bill. Before any one suspected what be would do be had his gun against Bill's head and said, 'Now, you long haired --, I've got you, and you're going to die.' Bill never baud an eye nor moved a muscle, but said, 'You would not shoot a man down without givin him a show to defend his life, would you?' ' Wouldn't I? What show did you ever give any one, you -- -- —?' "The Dutchman was dancing around like mad, imploring Jim to put up his gun and for him and Bill to shake hands. If they would, be `would stand treat : for the house. which proposition was finally accepted. Wild Bill and Jim Curry shook bands, after which Bill said: 'Now, Jim, I got nothin ag'in you, and I don't want to kill you, but if you are bound to'get a reputation there's a town full of tenderfeet here and lots of - sassy nigger soldiers. Go practice on them. You'll have to git more of 'em to give you a repntati6li, and it will take more time to pit than than if you held a disouseion with no, but I think yon will live longer to en- joy it and be happier than if you kept up piro jectin vaitjh me.

Story If the Early Days of the nellavllle Coal Region. n A writer in Forest and Stream says that Elias Blank, one of the early set- tlers of what is now the great Connells- ville coal region, in western Pennsylva- nia, was among the first Americans to burn soft coal. ' How the thing came about is thus described : One night Mr. Blank was aroused by a rapping at his door. Opening it, he admitted a famous Indian fighter, Lewis Whetzell, and a companion, Jonathan States, commonly known as "Long Armee." "Friend Lewis," said Blank, "where have thee and our friend been and where bound?" "I want to get out of here at once," said Whetzell, "and Long Arms is of the same opinion. This country's be- witched, aid Long Arms and I are nearly scared to death." "Friend Lewis, thee must not tell such stories) to me," said old' Elias. "Thee knows I am thy friend, and I have saved thee when a price was on thy head. I- know thou art a man of courage, and friend Jonathan Gates, whom some call ' Long Arms, fears nothing on earth, and I'm fearful noth- ing anywhere else, and yet thou tellest me that he and thee are soared' even al- most unto death. Shame on thee so to declare before thy friend, who loves ye both as be were thy father t" "No, no, Elias," said Whetzell, drop- ping into the Quaker speech. "I tell thee no lie. We are scared. Yesterday afternoon we were in hiding about a mile from Dunkard creek, and in the evening we built a fire under the bank very carefully, and we got seine black rooks to prop up a little kettle and put them beside the fire rather than in it, and the black rooks took fire and burned fiercely, with a filthy smoke find a bright light, and Long Arlin said the devil would come if we staid, mind we grabbed our kettle and poured out the water and made our way here, leaving the black rooks to burn." Elias Blank was much interested. .I e did not tell WhetzeIl what the' black rooks were, but lie found out exactly where the men had made their Hire, and when they went away be gave them each a new Ezra Engle rifle, a knife and a tomahawk, with four pounds of. powder and a supply of lead. Then he hunted up.- their camping ground, found the "black rooks" and opened a coal bank into one of the river hills, and this coal bank is still in ex- istence in a 12 foot vein of coal that is absolutely free from slate and burns like pitch. -- Cone DIRECT ImPOBTER8 OF Jules Robin & Co's Brandy, Cognac, France ; Jno. de Kuyper & Son, Hol- land Gin, Rotterdam, Holland ; Booth's Tom Gin, London, England ; Bulloch & Co.'s Scotch Whisky, Glas- gow, Scotland ; Jamieson's Irish Whisky, Dublin, Ireland ; also Port and Sherry Wine from France and Spain, Agents for Walker's Whisky, Ontario ; Royal Distillery and Davis' Ale and Porter, Toronto.

Something About This Dangerous and Sometimes Cruel Sport. When the two sons of the Prince of Wales were on a visit to Ceylon, a grand elephant hunt was projected to show them how the animals were captured. Here is an extract from Joseph Moore's description of .the hunt: - After long maneuvering the trained elephants managed -to separate a large cow from the herd and so ranged them selves about her that she was forced to stand. This was the opportunity wanted, and in a flash an agile native slipped under one of the friendly brutes, rope in hand. Waiting until the restless prisoner lifted her hind foot, he deftly placed theenoose about her leg and withdrew. Another venture fettered the second limb, the decoj's meanwhile warding off with their trunks several wrathful strokes at the man. The ropes were now firmly secured to a stout tree and the captive left entirely alone save her calf. Then began a Mantic struggle for liberty that no few words can justly portray. Finding herself baffled in un- tying the many knots or in uprooting the tree, she writhed, screamed, tore at the foliage, pawed the earth, torsed clouds of dust over her back, flung her trunk about fiercely and planted her bead upon the ground for leverage to rend asunder the bonds. At length she fell in exhaustion, an- guish and despair and lay motionless and resigned. The natives well knew that these symptoms forbode the loss of their prize.- She panted for an hour or more, 'sighed deeply and died—of "bro- ken heart." A male somewhat above medium size was next submitted to the exciting ordeal with minor variations. While be stood jammed between two of the tame elephants, away from any tree, the nooser induced him to raise hie hied foot by touching it gently, drew the running knot about his leg and retreat- ed. In this case the rope was attaohed to the girth of .one of the trained ani- mals,' and the sagacious brute, knowing exactly what was expected of Sim, be- gan to drag the captive toward a tree facing the spectators' stands. The wild one resisted violently, but without avail, as the tame allies stead- ly pushed, butted and pulled him across the inclosure. When the tying was com- plete, his contortions to free himself were astonishing, though in the end he calmed down, hopeless and covered with soil. Clean Shirts In Germany. The Berlin Boersen-Courier tells about a German's invention of a paper shirt front which is intended to ap- peal to the large number of. continental Germans who wear dickies. The shirt front has a paper collar polish and is in seven layers. As each layer is torn off it reveals another whit, glistening front. Thus from one paper dinky the wearer may evolve a clean paper shirt front for every day in the week. The dicky is made to button to any kind of shirt. It costs but 80 pfennig, or about 7 cents; consequently the expense of a clean front is but a cent a day. In view of the prevalence of the dicky habit in Germany the inventor has taken steps to manufacture his compou shirt fronts in large quantities. - t 010111111 unittilI IPIUpgppl ,pl4,11'1n P:l I:R: :c,.t,; t, ._.�--•✓_''c� uN111c Jnr tnu. un . 1 I tunsuntt1111,. 4.1..211111., •p �uutntnuult pi ,I ntill p1111 41 0111112 P11.2 I Ln1,.1,„ II, AVe.ge table Prep oration for As- similatingthe oodandleguta- ling the Stomachs =113o -wets of SEE THAT THE FAC -SIMILE SIGNATURE flF • Promotes Digestion,Cheerful- ness anti It'st.Cantains neither Ouin,MorptNin ine norera , NOT NARC ©TIC. lkcyhe at4ld Ib-.VMMI lizeprdn Seal - alx..frwna • ,si,Setay. 41 Mop ,Sced 539VSugar • rean, tram: Aperfect Remedy for Constipa- tion, Sour Stomach,Diarrhoea, Wornis,Convulsions,Feverish- ness andLoss OF SLEEP.

To be old' and poor and bedridden is generally to he debarred from the great- er privileges of life, but there was one old man in Scotland who found his dis- advantages had procured him a privi- lege that - the strong and more active membere of his family were seeking in vain. It was on an occasion when Queen Victoria was at Balmoral, and, as she often did, she went one day unaccom- panied to visit the cottages. . In one of theae she found an old man, bedridden and quite alone, and she sat down to talk to him. "And Sew is it you are alone?" she asked. "Have you no one to keep you company?" "No," replied the old man innocent- ly. "My folks be all away seeing the queen. They thought they "might get a glimpse of her." His visitor made no reply, but she sat with the old man, pleasantly filling the gap made by the absence of "his folks," and then found time to read to him from the Bible she herself treas- ured.
