ONE GIRL'S FUNERAL,
It Wh In the Early Daya of Montana --j
Was Different From Dint Funerals.
Oaring the construction days of the
Northern Pacific railroad many small
towns were born that flourished until the
road was completed and then died. The
little story following actually occurred
and made an impression on me that I
shall never forget. To me there was a
tinge of sadness that went straight to tho
heart. I ocenpied the exalted position of
justice of the peace. Now, a justice of
the peace in Montana in early days was ft
bigger man than the chief justice of thn
United States is today and bad a per
petual variety entertainment. He mar
ried people, buried the dead, put out fires,
took a drink with everybody, ref ereed dog
fights, settled family rows, preached,
made speeches and had to be ready for
auy kind of work. For this aggregation
of duties he was called judge, but if ho
rendered a wrong decision his name was
Dennis.
One cold morning 1 was waited upon
by a delegation of gamblers and inform
ed that one of the girls was dead. They
said she had passed iu her checks during
the night, and as she was the slickest
girl in the camp she was to have a 24
carat sendoff anil no mistake. I went
around to see the body to find out, if
possible, the cause of her death, I was
satisfied that the girl had taken morphine
and died from the effects, and so I ren
dered my decision, which satisfied all. I
set the hour for the funeral and returned
to the cabin to prepare my remarks.
There was not a Bible in the camp, and
so I had to play it alone. It was a cold,
stormy Montana winter day, and that
added much to the sadness of the occa
sion. The grave whs dug out among the
pines, and a more Clod forsaken place it
would have been hard to find, but it was
, K best we hud or could get.
The hour arrived; the procession form
ed, myself in front of the pallbearers,
consisting of gamblers, with the body in
a rough pine box. Next came the girls
of the town and the business men in the
rear. We wended our way slowly to the
last resting place, where, alone and un
known, amid the rocks and pines, with
the awful stillness of the mountains, all
that was earthly of that unfortunate girl
would stay until the last day.
No one could pray; no one could sing.
I poured out my soul to my God in my
poor, stumbling way told him all about
it. We were unanimous in the belief
that she was more sinned against than
sinning, and would he in his infinite good
ness and loving kindness forgive her,
wipe out all the black spots on her soul,
forget her past and save her for her soul's
sake? Would he suspend all rules, throw
open wide the portals of heaven, have
sweetest musio played on a thousand
golden1 harps and bid that poor, tired,
sin stuined soul enter the realms of hap
piness, purity and rest?
It was our funeral, because everybody
did all they could. There were but few
of all kinds, to be sure, but humans
with souls to save. There are many of
the old boys scattered through the north
west who will recollect that stormy
Montana day, and how we knocked at
eternity's door for admittance for that
girl's bouI, and all will agree that our
knocking was not in Vain that the gates
were thrown open and forgiveness and
reBt came to her. Or ting Oracle,

Mr. John W. Thomas, Jr., of Theta,
Tenn., is a man with a most interesting
history. At present he is interested in
blooded horses, for which Maury county
is famous.
"Few people, I take it," said Mr.
Thomas to a reporter who had asked him
for the story of his life, " have passed
through as remarkable a chain of events
as I have and remained alive to tell the
story.
"It was along in 1884, when I was
working in the silver mines of New Mex
ico, that my troubles began ; at first I
suffered with indigestion, and so acute
did the pains become that I went to Cal
ifornia for my health j but the trip did me
little good, and fully impressed with the
idea that my last day had nearly dawned
upon me, 1 hurried back here to my old
home to die.
" From simple indigestion my malady
developed into a chronic inability to
take any substantial food ; I was barely
able to creep about, and at times I was
prostrated by spells of heart palpitation.
ThiB condition continued until one year
ago.
" On the 11th of April, 1893, 1 suddenly
collapsed, and for days I was unconscious
in fact, I was not fullv mveelf until
July. My. condition on September 1 was
simply horrible ; I weighed but seventy
pounas, wnerea8 my normal weight is
165 pounds. All over mv bodv there
were lumps from the size of a grape to
tne size ot a walnut; my fingers were
cramped so that I could not more than
half straighten them. I had entirely
lost control of my lower limbs, and inv
hand trembled bo that I could not drink
without spilling the liquid. Nothing
would remain on my stomach, and it
seemed that I must dry up before many
more days naa passea.
" I made another round of the physi
cians, calling in one after the other, and
by the aid of morphine and other medi
cines they gave me I managed to live.

Here Mr. 1 nomas displayed his arms.
and just above the elbow of each there
was a large irregular stain as large as t he
palm of the hand and of a purple color;
the space covered by the mark was sunken
nearly to the bone. "That," said Mr.
Thomas, " is what the doctors did by
putting morphine into me.

Dr. Frank E. Buffum is tho son of a
bottler in Pittsburg. Ho lived In the house
kept by Mrs. Eva Wetmore at 243 West
Twenty-third street while pursuing his
medical studies in New York. According
to his story, Mrs. Wetmore is much older
tiiuii he, but he was wheedled Into loving
and finally into marrying her. Then, In
order to more firmly hold him. she calmed
off a baby as her own. Ho became sus
picious and employed a private detective
to look into her history, and thus discov
ered that she was an adventuress. In
many features tho story resembled that of
Eva Ray Hamilton.
With tho early history of Mrs. Buffum,
or Mrs. Wetmore, as sho is bettor known
in New York, this story has nothing to do.
There is no posslblo doubt of her right to
the name of Mrs. Buffum. The Buffums
admit that. She says that she was born
on a steamer whilo her parents were com
ing to this country, and that sho has high
connections abroad. She says furthor that
her relatives are rich. She was married to
an oflicer In tho United States army when
she was 14 years old and had a son by him,
who died about two years ago.
For three years Mrs. Buffum, or Mrs.
Wetmore, as sho was then, had the houses
at 240 and 243 West Twenty-third street.
Ono of tho houses bIio sublet furnished to
a family. Tho other house sho occupied
herself and rented furnished rooms. Frank
Buffum camo to her houso for tho first
time In tho springof 1801. Ho suid ho had
been recommended there by his brothor.
Mrs. Buffum knew the brother, Dr. Joseph
H. Buffum, when ho was studying in New
York. Joseph was then and is now prof oss
or of ophthalmology In the Chicago Ho
meopathic college. 1
"The first time that Frank called I did
not see him," Mrs. Buffum said to The
World reporter. "My colored maid showed !
him tho only room I had vacant, whloh
was the third floor front. Ho camo around
in a day or two and asked to seo tho room
again, and I showed it to him myself. He
said that he liked tho room very much, but
that ho could not afford to pay $8 a week,
which was tho regulur price. I told him
that I would let him have it for $7, but
that was tho best I could da. The next day
he appeared again. Then lie told me that
ho had no means save what his brother
gave him. Ho wanted very much to live
in my house, but that he could not afford
to pay over $S a week. Tho summer was
coming on, and as I know his brother I
finally told him ho could havo the room
for that price. Ho asked me to send to
the Coleman House for his baggage, and
I did so. Tho next day he told mo that he
was without any ready money, but that he
expected money every day from his brother.
I gave him my meal ticket on the restau
rant next door. A few days afterward I
gave him $5 to buy a ticket for himself.
"Just about tho time that Frank came
to my houso I sent my son Lcandcr abroad
with his uncle. We had never been parted
before, and the separation mado me very
lonely. Like most women, I cried a good

a week after he camo there, Frank came
Into the sitting room and found mo crying.
He asked mo what the mutter was, and I
told him. Ho camo up to me and put his
hand on my shoulder. 'Don't cry,' he
said. 'That won't help matters any. Let
me be your brother and take his place as
much as I can. I'll try to be as muoh
comfort to you as your son was. '
"That was the beginning of it all. Of
course I was grateful for his sympathy.
Then we began to be a good deal together.

Then ho and his brother quarreled, and
Frank went to Pittsburg to assist his fa

in New York. Frank wrote loving letters
to me every day, giving me constant ad
vice about the approaching event, to which
he roforred constantly.
"The baby was born July 12, 1898.
Frank was then in Pittsburg. I received
the most loving letters from him and from

When they were emptied Into the cellar,
the clerk of the cellars gave them 4

A Lost Fisherman's Story.
"I had been fishing for trout one day
in a North Carolina mountain stream,"
said a sportsman, "and was entirely un
successful. Upon trying to reach camp
I became lost and took refuge for the
night iu a small cave near Grandfather
mountain. The cave was dry and com
fortable, aud making a pillow of my
coat I soon fell asleep. The next morn
ing I was awakened by something pull
ing at the coat, and opening my eyes saw
that it was a cub bear.
"A few feet distant was a large bear
sitting on its haunches and another cub
playing around her. I had no weapon
of any kind and was completely at the
mercy of the animal, but she was not in
the humor to dispose of me just then.
She sat watching the cub as it pulled at
my cont, aud I was careful to make no
motions that might be considered as hos
tile. For two or three hours we looked
ot each other, and then the mother bear
ambled off with her two cubs, and I beat
a hasty retreat." St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
A Pleasant Nun to Interview.
Professor Felix Adler, the founder of
the Ethical Culture society, is a most
pleasant gentleman to interview. He
says that lie has found the newspaper
man to be honorable in the highest de
gree, and that he has never found it nec
essary to iudicate what part of his con
versation is intended for publication and
what part is to be considered as purely
personal. This of course means that
Professor Adler does not limit himself
in an interview to the matte directly iu

A COMMON-SENSE HOUSEKEEPER,
No one is better qualified to speak in re
gard to what is useful in family life than
Marion Harland. In ber popular and val
uable book, " Eve's Daughters or Common
Sense for Maid, Wife and Mother," on
pages 103 and 445 she says :
' For the aching back should it be slow
in recovering its normal strength an All
cock's Poantis Plaster ia an excellent com
forter, combining the sensation of the sus
tained pressure of a strong warm hand
with certain tonio q alities developed in
the wearing. It should be kept over the
seat of unr ashless for several t'avs in ob
stinate cases, for perhaps a fortnight.
" For pain in the back wear an Allcock's
roaous t lastkr constantly, renewing as it
wears oft'. This is an invaluable support
when the weight on the small of the back
becomes heavy and the aching incessant."
