THE "HOSS.
I c'aira no hoss will barm a man,
Not kick, nor run away, cavort,
Stump, suck er balk, or "catamaran,"
E ""you'll jest treat 'em like you ort.
But when I see a hoss abused,
And clubbed around as I've seen some,
I want to see the owner noosed,
And jest yanked up like Absolum.
Of course there's difference in the stock
A hoss that has a little ear,
And slender build and shaller hock,
" Kin beat his shadder, mighty near.
While one that's thick in neck and chist,
And big in neck and full in flank,
That tries to race, I will insist,
Will have to taLe the second rank.
And I've just laid back and laughed,
And rolled and wallered in the grass
At fairs, to see some heavy draft,
Lead out at first and come in last.
Each hoss has his appointed place
The heavy hoss should plow the soil,
The blooded racer he must race,
And win his feagers for his toil.
- I bless the hoss from hoof to head
From head to hoof, and tail to main;
I bless the hoss, as 1 have said,
From head to hoof, and back again.
Our cowboy Bill is still in France,
Where he will likely stay,
So long as he can crowds entrance
And make his visit pay.
They will not let him start for home,
His absence they'd regret;
They yet may ask him to become
Their poet lariat.
First Brent h of Thanksgiving.
(Boston Bourier.J
Let winds blow cold, let winds blow high,
Let days be dark and drear,
Who cares? Thanksgiving's drawing
nigh,
A time of mirth and cheer.
What though we burn wood by the cord
And weatner pnropnets croaiir
S con on the groaning festive board
The turkey, stuffed, will smoke.
Then something to the poor we'll spare
Who're always with us here
And we'll torget an gnei ana care
To give a thanksgiving cheer.

He tetrikes n ireat Ueal KiggerVein
of Vuek Than He Was Working
For
Dowd in the Willamette valley there
-resided an old farmer and his wife, in
tviry sense of the word bappy and con
tented, and withal well-to-do. But there
came upon that household a very great
grief; the death angel visited it and took
awav its staff the aeed farmer went to
the home of b a fathers. This left the
old lady destitute and alone. The com
panion of ber declining jears gone to his
long rest, no children to make her poor
heart glad, she longed for some one in
whom to confide, to whom she could look
for help and comfoit in ber old age and
her decrepitude.
A young" tombstone agent traveling
over that part of the country, and being
in search of dead people, beard of the
death of her husband, and learning also
ot ber well-filled pocketbook, decided to
visit ber at her home and stay a few clays
and recuperate, having been traveling
T,retty faithfully for some time. It was
his intention tc'make himself as useful as
possible to the sorrowing lady, acd
effectually work himself into ber confi
' dence and esteem, when be naturally
expected to secure aa order for a large
and costly monument. Be accordingly
did as he bad planned, and was more
successful tliED he bad eyen dared to
picture to himself, bo much so that his
hostess seemed to place the greatest
confidence In him and appeared to like
him very much. He would carry in
water, chop stove wood, in fact do any
thing and everything to please her.
He had been there but a few days,
and was beginning to think of broach
ing the subject of hia fondest hopes,
when she astounded him one day at the
dinner tabid in a way never dreamed of.
She suddenly asked him : "Do you know
what I am going to do?" The young
man of course replied that he did nut.
She tben said slowly and distinctly:
"I'm going to will all my money and
property to you. I like you and believe
you are an honorable young man, and
one who will take care of me in my old
age.''
The young man of course tried to
reason with ber, and nrged the peculiar
ity of such a move, but she still persis
ted in her determination to make him
her heir. When he saw sbe was deter
mined in the matter, he agreed to it with
the proviso that she should deed it to
him for a consideration so as to avoid
complications with relatives. The con
sideration was ten dollars. Thus ended
a most peculiar bargain.
The young man is living on the farm

tenderness of a son. The property and
- money is estimated at about $20,000.

How Cronln Was Mnrdjred.
Chicago, 111., November 3. A special
from Winnipeg tbia morning says: As
sistant State's Attorney Baker, of Chica
go, had a long interview with Bob Heifer
yesterday, the man who was in prison
with Bourk, and from him received a
corroboration of many of the details con
nected with the bntcherv of Cronin which
Gillette recounted on Thursday. Bourk,
according to Gillette, took quite a fancy
to Hefl'er at first, and was very communi
cative with him, telling him many details
about the crime. He told Heifer that
Cjughlin was the main actor in the crime.
He told Heifer tbat sandbags were used
by two of the assassins, while the third
weilded a common base-ball club. Boork
was under the impression that Cronin was
being decoyed to the cottage nnder the.
pretext that he was going to attend the
woman . mentioned in yesterday's dis
patches. Four men were waiting in the
cottage for bim. They listened for the
sound of wheels. At last the carnage
drove up, and an instant later the doctor
harried up to. the door. He knocked
loudly and hastily, as if he realized that
his presence was urgently required.
Two of the assassins stood behind the
door, ready to strike, while one ot the
others from the inner room called out in
a loud voice: "Come in." The door was
qaickly opened and the doctor strode in.
, Tne instant he was in one of the assassins
slammed the door, while the other struck
the physician a terrible blow with a sand
bag. The doctor fell heavily to the floor.
Bourk always declined to say who
struck the first blow, and this fact, Mr.
Baker says, makes it quite clear tbat it
was Bourk himself, else he would have
mentioned the name. He always spoke
about the four taking part in tbe crime
and pounding tbe doctor at the same
time. Tbe moment tbe doctor was down
the whole fourrusbed on him, and with
sandbags and clubs pounded tbe life out
of him. Tbe poor man stiuggled and
. moaned awfully. Blood poured from his
mouth and nose and even his eyes. He
struggled and gasped lor breath, and
nearly twenty minutes elapsed belore be
ceased to gasp, 'then tbe bends stripped
me oiooa-stainea clothing on him, and
oneoi tuem pounded bis face so as to
maKe it impossiple to recognize the body.
uouguiin -nauiea me trunK over and tbe
body was crammed into it. One of tbe
quartette went out and brought an ex
press wagon, which had been left in a
convenient place. When they went to
carry the trunk out blood was dripping
irom ir, ana it ran on tne floor and on
some of tbeir boots. Tbe trunk was set
down and the leaks in tbe trunk stopped
with cotton batting, which was found in
tbe doctor's instrument-case. The trunk
. and its contents were then taken to the
lake. Coughlin driving the horse. There
was no boat at that point, and they tried
lo shove tbe trunk out into tbe water,
but it would not work. Anxious to get
lid of tbe body some way, Bourke sug
gested that it be thrown into a catch
basin. The suggestion was adopted.

A recent d spatch says tbat J. R. Mote,
a farmer living in Phelps county, Ne
braska, about twelve miles lrom Kear
ney, is in possession of a curiosity which
is a valuable relic of prehistoric times in
ih a nartof the continent. Some time
B"o while excavating for a cave, be ex
homed a large brown stone weighing over
tweutv-pounds. W hen tne ciay was re
moved from it a large fossil, reuresentiag
a clenched human band, was reveaitd
Tlie suei-iiuen had been broken ihim a
mammoth arm just above tbe wrist, and
the imoriut of a coarse cloth or some
woven material was plainly outlined on
the back of the band. At the time of the
discovery nothing was said of it, as Mr,
Mute d:es not belong to the curious class
of oeoule.
For several months the specimen had
luin about the house, and no one who saw
it bad any idea of the great amount of
wealth held firmly in the grasp of tht
stony fingers. A small boy in tbe family
whose faculty for smashing things is just
becinninz to develop?, coaceived the
idea of opening tbe band. When broken
to bis astonishment, there rolled out
eleven brilliant transparent stones. Tbe
discovery of these beauties was not made
public until yesterday, when Mr. Mote
showed them to a jeweler, who pro
nounced them genuine first water dia
monds, without speck or flaw to mar
tbeir beautv.
The jewels are uniform in size and are
about the shape ot liiina neans. luey
have tbe appearence of being water worn
but are still beautiful stones. Ihepos
sessor of this beautiful fijd will dispose
of the diamonds, and will at once begin
his search in the old cave for the other
hand as well as the rest of tbe body of
this relic ot an early use.
Tbe mystery of the broken hand is one
of preplexing interest. How long has it
been there? To what race of giauts did
its owner belong? Was the sulject an
ancient miner,- who died grasping his
most precious nos-cssio&s? Many other
like questions are raised by the discovery,
but to all ot them the modern historiau
can only answer iu remote and uncertain
speculation.
