Back in the early days, when the ship of civilization 'vas endeavoring to push its prow up the valley of the Platte and brawny workmen were spiking down the rails of the Union Pac railroads— says Capt. Jack Crawford, the poet- scout, in the New York World—the pro- ceedings in some of the courts of justice were peeuliar. The country was wild and hostile. Indians chased the buffalo over the ground where prosperous towns and villiages now stand. Luawyers were about asscarce as they are in the promised land, and justice, not being provided with the traditional secales, performed some remarkable guessworl At that time T was in the Indian seryice ana for a time was stationed at Lone Tree, in the beautiful valley of the Platte. The town consisted of a half dozen hastily con- structed houses, the majority built of sods. There were a few settlers near the town—hardy pioneers who had taken up government land and who lived in con- Stant danger of attack from satan’s rihly corps, the Sioux. One of the cccentric chy town was Jimmy Crane, time-beaten fronticrsman, uneducated, unpolished and, as a traveling missionary once said, ungod His life had been spent west of the auburn waters of the Missouri, and he knew as little of the ways of civiliza- tion an Apache Indian modern plan of jon. He was a dead shot v fle, an ardent lover of whisky and an expert at draw ankvr, but aside from these he had no religious ac- complishments worth speaking of.

The high honor so unexpectedly thrast upon the old man broke him all usv, but he at once rose to the dignity of the position and began to comb his hair daily. There were vague rumors flitting about the set- tlement that he had socks.

Boecker took so great a dislike to the child that he hardly ever noticed it, giv- ing all his attention to his three other cliidren, the oldest of whomis a fourteen year old'boy, who is a great admirer of Jay Gould, The keen-eyed little fellow, Jay Gould, never paid any attention to the disputes abont hisname. He preferved to sprawl about the floor, and wounld get everything he laid his hands on into a corner. Like his great namesake, the boy sleeps with one cye open, and he is uncertain i solities.

The Cost of a Bushel of Corn, Chieago Herald: There is a statistician about the Paliner House who desires to. impress everybody with economic faets, Said he yesterday': “Do you see that man over theve? Well, he's’ a farmer down near Elgin, There he goes with a friend; they're going to get o drink. The farmer | will pay for it ow, let me see. That man will sweat two mortal hours next spring to Yl”w enongh ground to raise | one bushel of corn. That’ bushel of corn he will sell for 30 cents. He ing in there now to spend the 80 cents for two drinks. ‘Thercfore, the farmer and the corn have parted. Now, let me tell you, what becomes of the corn. A bushel ofy corn makes soventeen quarts of whisky— four-und-n-quartor gallons. -The Q1N lory gets its first profit—40 cents a gallon, There you « $2 for that bushel of corn. Now the government comes in, 90 cents a allon—$3.85, added to the $2, makes 85, That brings the product of the bushel of corn down to the jobber and the wholesaler and, finally. L_\' several es, o the retailer. By the time it veaches the latter the bushel of corn or its product of four and a_quarter gallons has been reduced one-half, which means i nd a half gallon There are nks to the gallon—that the htand a half gallons mean cents ench—there we price for a bushel of corn which_the farmer raises and sells for 30 cents. Who says there is not industry in this country? But the farmer w W just now spent his whole bushel of corn in the price of two drinks, and the people who do ot till the soil ot away with $16.05 - aptain Mitchell, of the bark Antoine | Sala, New York and Havana trade, cam- home in May, entirely helpless with rhicumatism. “He went to the mountains, but receiving no benelfit, at his w quest, began to take Hood's He immediately began to improve two months his rheumatism was all none and he sailed in command of his vessel a well man, Hood's Sarsuparilla will help you.
