Frisco Kid aned back in a chair and blew cigarette smoke through his nose, while e looked about for approval. He ot what he wanted, for the room was lled with boys of his general makeup. Not Sunday school lads, but tough, it eannot be denied, and rather proud of it, thero is no gainsaying. They had just returned from a tour of the east, Says the San Francisco Kxaminer, Some of them got as far as New York. The others stopped at Chicago. All of them laid over o y on the way. This 18 why the trip consimed four months. “You battered a house for a lump? Well, wiiat does that mean?” There were eight in the group, and it 8 not pleasant to have sixtcen eyes fo- oused upon you in token of pity for your ignorance. Frisco Kid explained:* W'y, it's to ask [¢ ub.

Deers the Napkin Kid, McGinty Kid, Jap Kid, State Kid and Eddy Kid, Kid iin, Mie- tado Kid and me. We started out four months ago. We heard we could get work at Vacayville, but we couldn’t, 'n’ went iuto camp. Some of de kids helped & butcher and got paid in liver and such, and we used to 1ift potatoes from a field. We'd yank up de vines and put ‘em baclk again aiter swiping de spuds, and we owe a grocer’s bill. Butw'en we couldn’ get no work we begins to scatter and take to the rods In tho First “T got ditehed in Ne interrupted Kid [IMin, “and was walkin’ crost the desert dead tived, w'en I met Charlie Fair. You know Charlic ‘Hullo, Char ws I ‘Hullo yourself, Kid,' says he. ‘Wat the devil are you doin’ here? He guve me some stuff, an’ T hunted up de rest of the gang. Dey was played out along the track, and we got gome punk; wasn't much else to get. Charli’s a sport.” plained that punk is bread hing elso that drops 1nto the stomachic void gracefully without being exactly a delicacy. “When we got to Reno,” resumed the Frisco Kid, "I was chucked into jail.

Not Suipe Season. “De worst thing about Nevada,” said Mickado (and that's the way he spells it), “is that you can't shoot no snipes, and cigarettes is agin delaw. You buys your tobaceo and dey slings you a pack- ago of cigarette paper so's you step on it: can't even give it away 10 you. Ne- vada's a hard game, 1 got froze up in a tool box and dey like to never got me tawed.” “As I was a sayin’,” resumed Frisco Kid once more. “‘As’T was a sayin', wen Mickado took the floor, I got to Chey- enne and got out. But don’t forget de Mormons. De route from Salt Lake to Ogden is great. Dem Mormons gives youmilk and honey sometimes. Wen you batter 'om an’ dey won't seo it, wy you takes a lump anyhow, and it's all de Bame. “Down among de Nebraska hoosiers it's pretty easy.

One bloke was driving a 10t of cattlo and he enid he wouldn't give me auy stuff, but I could come along and drive a team. Never had a line in my hand before, #'elp me, and I drove them mustangs all over the bloomin' prairie. That night we went into camp near Gottenburg, an’ I says to the cattle man, ‘Let's have some dongh.' ‘Wat's de matter wid bread?’ says he. Sol told him I was fiolug to town.

Oh, he's a cop, and a stiff is & tramp wat won’t work and don't carry & blanket.

Ten days.’ 1 didn’t know Cheecago much, and w'en [ climbed oft de rod I was broke and went to sleep in a park.

Tho_titl is indicative of its nature, *Bulbs and Tub ous-Itooted Plants, Their History, Descrip- tiou, Methods of Propagation and Complete Directions for Their Successful Cultuve.” The book is nicely bound. with a silver lily on the cover, and is published by Orange Judd & Company, New York City. “Oscar Peterson, Ranchman and Ranger,” is o story said to be for boys. In what way the perusal of the book would benefit a boy we arc not advised. Stories rife with Indisns, bloodshed and marvelous escapes are b numbers, and if authors of “stories for boys" are not able o find a sub- Jject outside of this sort of slush, it would be better if they saved their time. Henry Willard French is the author of this special ook, whose publisher is D. Lothrop, Boston “Bimetalhsm or Bankruptey” is the title: of a pamphlet issued by the Denver Repub- lican containing a series of articles touching the silver question that have appeared from time to time 1n the columns of that journal. It avgues strongly for an American policy on finauce as well as in everything else, and furnishes an able presentation of the merits of free silver. W. F. Robinson & Co., Den- ver, Colo. Oliver Optic has racently added another to his famous “‘Blue and Gray Series” of stories for boys. Oliver Optic always a favorite with boys, and justly. too. His stories are full of a spirit of heroism which is not too exaggerated to be possible, and arouses latent nobility in the character of a young man in his teons. The present tale is cn- titled “Fighting for tho Right,” and is fully up to the standard. The binding and illus- trations are first class and the print just the kind a boy likes.

These tales have been contributed by the very best writers for children and the print and artisuc taste displayed in the male-up give it a value above even the pleas- ure it must yield. phael Tuck & Sons, New York, listory of Slavery in Connecticut” is the subject of ouo of the Johns Hopkins university studies in historical and political science, by Herbert C.

The treatment of slaves during the revolution and subsequent lezislation touch- ing the subject down to tha end of the civil war conclude the work, which isan im- portaut contribution to 'American history. The Johns Hopkins Press, Baltimore, The twelfth annual session of the Ne- brasks State Pharmaceutical association must have been a lively one if the published ’mmphlul of proceedings is any criterion. The society met at Nebraska City, with an unusually large number of delogates in at- tendance. The report before us contains a number of papers read at the yearly gathering, some of which are of more than ordinary interest, from the fact that a prize was offered for the best essay on the sub- ject, *“I'he Duties of the Drug Clerk."” Mrs. Bulle Heilman of Tecumseh captured the first prize.

The verse is extremely simple and unpretontious, while expressive and reflecting just the sentiment of patriot- ism that reigned in tho heart in those of doubt and danger. Mr. Crawford hus hosts of friends in Nebraska and southern Dakota, where he huas spent much of his time in the early days, aud those who know him will recognizo in the lines a reflection of what is in the man himself.
