Last Friday there wa a little circus -a sort of a private rehcursal of amateur Athletic out on Beny creek, which would have lieen very entertaining If there had been any audience, providing tho spectator had sufo seals. The principal characlera of the piny were a cow, a dog, and two of the most enthusiastic lishcrmcti in this town, 1). B. Taylor and II. 11. Patterson. Had It not Ik'ou for the uhusual activity of the piscators, tlie allalr might have resulted seriously, but, as it turned out, no one wws hurt. Messrs. Patterson und Taylor were meandering cheerfully along the stream, with their hearts full of glee and a number of trout lu their baskets, when they were suddenly attacked by an enraged cow which had been driven to desperation and their part of the county by a dog. The bovine wus mad, very mad; it tarried not to con sider the Innocence of the sportsmen, hut giving a defiant snort made at them with red war In its eyes and very vicious points on Its horns. There was no time to explain matters, so Henry Patterson promptly dodged behind ft tree, an oak about six or eight Inches thick. Why the duinii brute should pick on him Henry didn't know, but at him she came full tilt, and struck flic oak with u rent violence. The tree nobly withstood the shock to the great Joy of Mr. Patterson, who Is seriously thinking of adding a scrub oak, rampant, with a cow, gules, to hi armorial bearing but the cow, nothing daunted, tried her beat to get at lil ii, ami wa only prevented by Mr, Pattcraoli'a quick ties of fisd, Although It nearly broke the rial, and bis lienrt ttsi, Henry flnally succeeded In whipping the cow Into submission and finally drove It olf. With a sigh of relief he first examined hlpllt-bamlHuil finding It hot quite ruined, Imtked around for hi companion, Thcie w nothing In sight but the fast vanishing form of the rude cow, home what pulled, Henry twgaii lo call and lu a very short time heard faint voice answering; looking up Into the largcat tree In the vlclnlly he saw I). B. still climbing. It took acveral minute to convince Mr. Taylor that the danger wa past, but he came finally down, not as rapidly, however, aa he went up. There were no marks visible 011 the tree trunk and It lahellcved that when Mr, Taylor saw that cow he mm Ut the emergency and aided by hi naturally buoyant dlssdtlon, Juiiih1 to the lowest hraiiciic and the conclusion that climbing wa good practie for the mucli.

WHERE BIO THE MONEY C01 Alleged Mysterious DlMtimcunince of $101 of School Fund. Last Monday there came to Indepen dence a man named W. S. Beunett, who Is thetlcrkof school district Np 50. He w as just In from Dallas, where he had drawn 1104 of school money rum the county school superintendent, beside which sum ho had a few dollars of his own money, Bennett registered at the Little Palace hotel; aflerstrolling about the town for a while and taking a number of drinks with wllh some old friends, he returned to the hotel about 10 o'clock and went to his room. In the morning he astonished Mr. Stark, the landlord of the hotel, by telling him that he had bee 11 robbed during the night of $107 and a pair of pantaloons. Thercau.twaa that Mr. Stark and Marshal Tuppcr at once began a search for the thief and the pants, They were assisted by Wayne Williams, who lias quite a local reputation as a detective, bu. their cll'01 ts to discover the slightest clue to either thief, money or trousers ere fruitless. The marshal finally took Bennett to Justice Irvine for the purpose of securing a search wai runt, but as Bennett refusd to swear to he warrant, the Justice of the peace ould do nothing for him. ' Later developments dlHclosed some rather curious circumstance lu con- icctlo'i with the alleged theft w hlcn aiiHil many here to wonder, and even todurkly Burmite, usitwere. The story Bennett told the marshal and Justice was In effect 11s follows: He baa taken but one drink during liiu eveuiug and retired between 10 and 11 o'clock; shortly afterward he was taken 111 wllh cramp cotio, cuoiera intaiiium or a kindred ailment; he got up and came down town to get some medi cine but found the drugstore closed He, tlicu wended his way to Lay ton Smith's saloon, and applied there for the needed remedy. Layt did the bent he could for the sufferer and gave him a done of burnt brandy od sugar, adding a little peppermint Pi assist in routing the awful pain. He then visited the house of a certain lady whose fulr fame U not more than seveuly cubit above reproach, tarrying there hut five minutes, after which be went to the hotel; he dlsrolwd, p!ad I.I pant under Id pillow, and at tempted to lock the door with the catch. When he woke up In the morn ing thu door wa oiii, hi pant and money were gone, and im wauled to get them hack, etc From other sounieslt waa learned that Scott Bennett wa formerly a pretty hard game and, before he wa hurt by falling Into a log chute or some other article of virtu about the logging camp, he bad taken much Interest lu such carnal pleasure a fisticuff and debauches, That on Moo day evening he had taken at the lowest official count five drink, with several precinct to hear from; that when he visited the malaon dejolo he dallied with the temptress not only five m 1 11 ules but over an hour, and took a couple more drink l-fore going lo bed. Another peculiar feature I found lu the statement that Monday afterinsin Scott Bennett went Into a store on Main street and bought a pair of pants for Sunday, l-caue the fo.lO pant In wow ma not mm mm; for the new tiouser he aqaudored 85 cent. It was so fortunale he had those new pant ready when the oold burglar took his others, His actions all the way through were to queer that, there be those in towu who do not hesitate to say unkind thing about Scott, and who do uot like to have Independence given a bad ,,,.
