THE KNIGHTS OF PVTHIAS.
Written by Chancellor Commander, E. P.
Voruz, in honor of the open installation of
Doric Lodge, No. 20, K. of P., Jan. 5, '92.
1.
Who Is it that have swords and belts and bands,
Parading on festive days hand in hand,
And feel proud of their fatherland,
The Knights of Pythias.
2.
Who is it that have for its aim to fight the wrong,
And itB tenets F. C. B., meaning "fools can't
belong,"
Whose membership consists of a powerful
throng,
The Knights of Pythias.
3.
Who are they that like to stay
Up In the lodge room till nearly day,
To see the goat playing and kicking gay,
The KnightB of Pythias.
4.
Who 1b it that help the needy and do no harm,
Keep the poor in clothes and keep them warm,
And have Senator Blackman to get off "yarns,"
The Knights of Pythias.
5.
Whenever there is contention and the lodge gets
into a fuss,
W h o i s i t that have Brother Patterson to fix up
the muss,
And never stops talking till he has laid down the
law for us,
The Knights of Pythias.
6.
Who is it that will help a brother and fall in
line
To do a good deed and do it any time,
Who have such members and Brothers AyerB,
Borg and Van Duyn,
The Knights of Pythias.
7.
Who is it that on the day of installation,
Come with full baskets and Bee officers at their
station,
And to have a merry time and have recitations,
The wiveB of the Knights of Pythias.
WHY THE KD1TOK SWOKH.
With a terrible cold In his head,
And his eyelids heavy and Bore,
The editor sat in a broken chair
And bitterly, earnestly swore.
A youth had dropped in with a poem,
A man was there with a dun,
And a chap had entered to tell him
How the paper ought to be run.
An irate subscriber had told him
That his sheet wasn't fit to be read,
While another had carefully promised
To punch the editor's head.
The foreman was yelling for copy,
And the wind blew in at the door.
And this with a few other reasons,
Is why the editor swore.
And the angel who took it to heaven
Recorded this verdict there:
"The Jury find in the present case
'Twas a justifiable swear."

:- WHAT'S A KIBb. " ' ' " '
Something rather dangerous,
Something rather nice,
Something rather wicked
Though it can't be called a vice.
Some think it naughty,
Others think it wrong,
All agree it's jolly,
Though it don't last long.
When lips of lovers meet in bliss,
The pleasing act is termed a "kiss
But when the pair have wed each other
The vapid thing is called a "bother."
I'm just two and two, I'm warm, I'm cold,
And the parent of numbers that cannot be told,
I am lawful unlawful a duty, a fault.
I am often sold dear good for nothing when
bought.
An extraordinary boon, and a matter of course,
And yield with pleasure when taken by force.
Unknown.
EDITOEIAL.
Now a crank has appeared in New
York and expressed his intention to
elope with and marry Miss Qould.
Either the rioh men must dispose of
their fortunes or the polioe of the oountry
will be oompelled to make a systematic
orank hunt in all the large oities.
A warrant has been issued for the ar
rest of A. C. Edwards, Jr., aud Franklin
Eipg, for publishing and circulating ob
scene literature through the medium of
the Spokane Regulator, They were
arraigned on three separate charges
printing of obscene literature, its circu
lation, and the production of indecent
piotures in the same, Edwards was ar
rested aud placed under $500 bonds to
appear before the munioipal oourt. The
polioe have not yet found King, though
tbey are making a determined search for
him,
A woman whose husband had squan
dered $15 over night in a saloon in New
York City went to the place in the morn
ing and asked to get the money back.
Of course she did not get it, but she took
from a basket which sbe bad on her arm
two plain homely-looking brioks and,
with them as a weapon, she devoted her
best fighting energies to demolish about
8500 wortb of out glass and French mir
rors. The law would say that this spite
ful little woman should be punished, but
where is the jury to be found that would
oonvict her? It does not exist. Not even
if selected from the saloons of New York
itself.

In summer cattle should be salted
twioe a week; in winter only ouce. To
each steer about a handful will be suffi
cient, but the best plan is to have rock
salt where they oan liok it at will.
Feeding is like aij, otner investment
of money-should pay the proper interest
on the oapital used. If the animal fed
cannot pay back a fair interest on the
oost of the food, both ahoiild be applied
to more remunerative uses the capital
transferred and the animal ponverted in
to cash to be profitably apllied. Nearly
every farmer in Amerioa and elsewhere
loses the interest of the money invested
in unprofitable live stock.
SHERP AND WOOrOTES.
Turnips make a goiN-'.d for sheep
They are easily mised and oheap.
Good feed and oare tell more on the
sheep than among any other class of
stock.
The wool grower has to oompete not
only with bis neighbors, but with all the
world beside; the mutton grower meets
only his fellow citizens as competitors.
Merinos are the best breed of sheee p
to run in large flocks, Even with the
low price of wool, with the inore'ase and
good they will do Hie soil, they oan be
grown with profit by the average farmer.
From the Pendlti)-fvibuna we learn
that Mayor Coiioy. had', over 100
head'of oattle -.iC-. iiV'tn him during
year. 'i4
The Cheyenne Stoc.1t Journal says:
There is a limit to which' any range can
be profitably stocked. If we go beyond
this limit it will not only be adeteriment
to the permanenoy of the range, will be
detrimental to the stock as well.
- An unknown disease has attaoked
horses in Kittitaas county, aud threatens
to become epidemic. Farmers and stook
men are helpless as nothing like it has
ever appeared before in that section and
no remedy is known for it. It promises
to work muoh hardship on the settlers in
that section.
BOB FIltE PHO'PECTION.
The following plans and specifications
for three cisterns to be situated on Main
street, are those prepared by theoommit
tee on fire and water,composed of Messrs,
Morgan, Garrigues and Gilliam, and are
a copy of those to be presented at the
next meeting of the oounoil :
"The said cisterns to be built on Main
street at the crossing or intersection of
May, Willow and Center streets. Said
cisterns to be made of fir lumber; bed
pieces to be 6x6; floor 4x12 both top and
bottom; sides to be made of 2x4 spiked
together; same to be tarred inside and
out. Said cisterns to be not less than
twelve feet (12) square, aud to hold not
less than eleven thousand (11,000) gal
loos of water. The covers of said cis
terns to be not less than sixteen feet (16)
square; bed pieces to be 6x6; said bed
pieces not to be over sixteen inches (16)
apart, both top aud bottom.
"Also pipes to be laid from the arte
sian well to the oistero at Main and May
streets, and to connect all the cisterns
together. Also waste pipe from oistern
at Main and Ceuter.running on Center to
the oreek. Said pipe to be quick gal
vanized wrought pipe, and to be laid
eighteen (18) inches in the ground.
The versatility of the grip is not the
least imposing feature of that malady
An Indiana man who had it is now as-
bold as a pool-ball. His mustache dropped
into a dinner-plate one day when he was
oonvalesoing and then his eyebrows and
bis hair fell out. Now his own looking
glasB would not kDow him. Apparently
the only things the grip is inoapable of
doing for a man are to call a doctor and
pay his bills.

line Saturday, returning luesday.

Most of the Pnget Sound pioneers well
remember Jaok Morrow, as he was fa

first were born. He took an active part
iu everything, and served as lieutenant
all through the Indian war of '05 0. His
old friends will regret to bear that he is
having to endure this winter a life-share
of physical torture. Beginning with
what was supposed to be inflammatory
rheumatism, Mr. Morrow's son tenderly
took him to medicinal springs, but find
ing no relief there, be was taken to St.
Vincent's hospital in Portland, where he
can have the very best sargioal skill. It
was fonnd necessary to cut a 6 inch strip
from one of his legs, lu order to scrape
away diseased bone. At last accounts
Mr. Morrow was suffering severely, but

growers, is earnestly advocating the ne-
oessity of a passable thoroughfare be
tween here and your city, whioh is now
the natural metropolis of this section of
the country, and is only deprived of the
entire business of it by about one mile of
road. This sounds redioulous, and es
pecially so when the expenditure of not
more than $1,000 would make us but
few hours of pleasant driving to reaoh

that it is used as a pen and the legends
it produces are as indelible as those of
