Bert Huffman. A FABLE OF THE FOURTH. A Pendleton barber died the morn ing after the celebration and went up down to his reward. When he arrived at the pearly hot sates the Devil was busy preparing 3(i other sinners for Initiation and pointing to a white-hot stool near by, said jocularly, "Sit down and smoke awhile. 'You're next.' " The barber looked around for an soestos protector to placo on top of the stool, but they were all in use, a Pendleton bootblack who had just preceded him having two protectors on top of his stool. One by one tho applicants for ad mission were disposed of, and the iarber's turn came. While he wasn't in a hurry, he thought it a mean, trick for Satan to say lie w'as "next," when there were 1C ahead of him. As ho arose to bo branded and dressed for entrance, Satan yelled to an attendant inside: "Go and pile up a thousand car casses of Mad Mullah's soldiers under that premium furnace. If they won't Sum, I don't know what will." He remarked to tho barber that It always rained on the Fourth and his fuel was all wet. Then Satan stopped with his hand jesting on tho door, to explain, "You see wo liavo a contest hero lor the next two days. Two newspa per men liavo offered to conduct the .contest and decide on tho winner if I 'would prepare the prizo, so we are icating up a box stall for tho man vho wins the contest. No ono will inow how hot the stall is, for tho man who wins it will be selected for his special sins and the thermometers will all be removed." "What Is the contest to decide," timidly asked tho barber. "Wo are voting to select tho man who perpetrated the greatest wron i on his follownion on earth, on the i Fourth of July," replied Satan, j Just then tho door was opened from j -within and an Imp said softly to Sa-1 tan; j "You'll have to come and quiet j these lollows, Tho villain who fired , & bomb miller tho hospital window was 200 ahead when a lawyer slipped In a thousand votes for tho man who prlng chicken, and then J 11 I,,. 11 i o i .i. advertised s bought up all I be old hens In the country. Tho newspaper men are raising an awful howl." "This will stop their jangling," said Satan, as he opened tho door ind pushed the barber In. Another vote was taken Immediate ly and the barber who charged his patrons, double price for a sliavo on the Fourth of July, won tho prlzo. Tho thermometers being gone, ho couldn't say Just what tho tempera ture was, Tho printer who took advantage of tho celebration to steal two pounds of purplo ink from the other since., lost tho prize by ono .vote. RESURRECTION OF THE RANGE. A number of years ago, the Mon tana legislature onacted a law com polling owners of all abandoned min ing shafts to fonco these pits, as a means of proventlng stock from fall ing Into them. Some of the owners obeyed tho law, and somo of them proud AmorlcnnB that they woro, disregarded it. Among those obeying this humane law woro some largo English mining companies, who not only fenced tho abandoned shafts, hut built a tight fence around n lot several rods in ox- tent. Soon tho tramplcd-out bunchgrass, famishing for a rest, began to grow luxuriantly In theso protected lots, and the result of this law is, that many ncres of despoiled range has been reseeded, resurrected and re stored to something near Its. olden value, by tho chanco stroko of this law, Tho worst feature about the ox hausted ranges of the West, is thnt no seed Is allowed to ripen to roplen Ish the destroyed stock growing on the hills. Year In, year out, the con stant trampling process and gnawing process goes on wltliout rest. No seed is matured to bo scattore- by the kindly winds to propagate tho grass. Nature struggles hard to perpetuate tho specie, but the destroying ravages of cutting hoofs and nibbling teeth outdo all her efforts at rebuilding. There Is a lesson for Oregon stock men in tills Montana experiment, Tho rebuilding of tho rnnge is the most Important subject now before him. The little expense of.enclng off tracts of bunchgrass land for seeding pur poses should not stand in the wny of tho final reclamation of tho entire range districts of the state. Seed from theso small lots on tho Montana ranges has matured and scattered over a largo adjacent territory, until many parts of tho destroyed range has been restored. lesson of equal practical value is before Oregon, In the closely fenced right of way of the railroads. Where stock is kept off tho grass for ono or two seasons, It ripens, and scatters seed over tho ground In such quantities that tho range nppei-3 oven better than in Its pristine condition. Here Is the key to tho situation li Is the most practical and lnevotislvj method yet suggested for the restor ation of Western ranges, Let every stockman of tho range districts fence off lots of bunchgrass land in 10 to 20 aero tracts, just as tho farmer would summer (allow his wornout wheat land. This rest will ronow the old stock of gra.w and ma ture seed for a new crop on the land adjacent. This process followed closely for 10 years, will restore tho foothill ranges to something near their olden value and tho cost will be so trifling thnt it would not stnnd in the way, This Is a subject for discussion nt tho coming convention of the wool growers in Uaker City. It is a sub ject for discussion wherever the stockmen of the Inland Emplro con gregate to talk over plans for tho perpetuation of thler business. It stands ahead of the introduction of new species of grass, or any other plan for tho rejuvenation of Western ranges yet proposed. Tho farmers ot the Willamette val ley have already made a kick to Stato Commissioner of tho Lowls and Clark Fair about tho largo amount of space and advertising to be given tho min ing industry at tho St. Louis Exposi tion, and tho very small amount of space, money and advertising given THE In S.

A place hunter In Prussia enc ashed Frederick the Great for the grant of some rich I'rotostnut bishop rlc. The king expressed his regret that It was already given away, but broadly hinted that there was a Cath ollc nbbaey nt his disposal. Tho ap plicaut managed to be converted and to bo received Into the bosom of the true church, after which ho hastened to his friend, the king, and told lnm how ho had been cullglitoued. "Ah,1 exclaimed Frederick, "how torrlhly unfortunate. I have given away the abbacy. Hut tho chief rabbi Is Just dead and tho synagogue Is at my dis posal. Suppose you were to turn Jew?" A somowhnt pompous individual was once talking to a friend about his lamlly, the genealogy of which he traced back several generations, but was told by his friend thnt ho was a more mushroom. "Aye," said ho, "how, pray?" "Why," said the other, "when I was In Wales u pedi gree of a particular family was shown to me. It tilled about five largo skins of parchment, and about the middle of it was a note in the margin. About this time the world was created.' Dlshop Potter once made a trip to England, and while there was fre quently addressed as "My Lord." He says when one has lived for yonrs in America without any special title In ordinary conversation, It Is not easy to become accustomed to being hail ed as "My Lord," whonovor any service Is rendered. Hut from the re currence of the title, which was still offered me at frequent Intervals dur ing the voyage home, I was cheerfully delivered by the first American I mot 'on my way ashore. He was an old vestryman or mine, and I met him on the gangway as he was rushing up to welcome his wife and daughters. He grabbed my hand an Instant, nnd exclaimed: "Hello, Illsh'; how are you?" Queen Elizabeth, once admir ing the oleganco of a Span ish nobleman, complimented him on It, begging at tho same time to know who possessed tho heart of so accomplished a cavalier. "Madam," said he, "a lover risks too much on such an occasion; but your mnjesty's will Is law. Excuse me, howover, if I fear to name her, but request your majesty's acceptance or her portrait." He sent her a looklngglass. Cardinal Mazarin, durjng his reign or power, wus told that two ladles or tho court had had a bitter quarrel, in tho course of which they accused ouch other or crimes and sins such ns no lady's character could bear without dishonor and disgrace. The cardinal listened attentively, and than quietly asked: "Havo they called each other ugly?" ' No, Monslgnor," wns the re ply. "I have not heard that either of the ladles made this reproach." "In that case," rejoined the cardinal, "I dare say I can reconcilo them." At a dinner party once the subject of eternal life and future punishment enmo up for a long discussion, In which Mnrk Twain, who wns present, took no part. A lady near him turn ed suddenly toward him, and ex claimed: "Why do you not say any thing? I want your' opinion," Twain replied gravely: "Madam you must excuse mo. I am silent of necessity, I have friends in both places." TutulHn, July C.
