"Were It not for me,"
Said a chickadee,
"Not a single Uowcr on earth would be,
For under the ground they soundly sleep,
And never venture an upward peep
Till they hear from me,
Chickadee-dee dee I
"I tell Jack Frost when 'tis time to go
And carry away his toe and snow;
And then I hint to the jolly old sun,
'A little spring work, sir, should be done!'
And ho smiles around
On the frozen ground,
And I keep up my cheery, cheery sound,
Till Echo declares, in glee, In glee;
' "Tis he! 'tis he!
The chickadee-dee!'
"And then I waken the birds of spring
'Ho, ho! 'tis time to be on the wing I '
Thoy trill and twitter and soar aloft,
And I send the winds to whisper soft,
Down by the little flower beds,
Saying: 'Come, show your pretty heads 1
The spring is coming, you see, you seel
For so sings he.
The chickadee-dee '
"The sun he smiled, and the eany flowers
Bloomed to brighten the blithesome hours,
And song birds gathered In bush and tree;
But the wind he laughed right merrily,
As the saucy mite of a snowbird, he
Chirped away: 'Do you see, see, see?
I did it all!
Chiokadeo-dee-dee! ' "
Sydney Dsyre, in Golden Days.
OWYHEE JOE'S STORY.
BY BOUNSKVELLE WILDMAN.
It was the beginning of the end.
The last tie of the mighty Union Pacific
was the first tie in the march of civili
zation into the great "west."
With t.li thunder of iron wheels and
( ho rsverlwront screpch of the whistln. !
the Indian, the buffalo, the desperado
lied, the overland coach became a mem
ory and the cowboy changed his buck
skin for New York shoddy. Later, as
the gigantic Pacific system stretched
out its arms to the north and south and
absorbed the alkali bottoms of Wy-
lining, the sage brush plains of Idaho, I
the pine forests of Oregon, even the
'ava beds of northern California, the
lioneers of Ml) and the miners of 'ti3 be
jtime a curiosity, and the men who had
subdued the wilderness from the back
uf an untamed mustang were styled
"moss backs" by the "tourist coach"
emigrants and relegated to the back
ground. Little more than a decade has passed
since the Oregon Short line pushed its
way along the great valley of the
Snake and laid Idaho tributary to its
iovcreignty; yet, in so short a time, I
b-.'came an "old tinier," and, as I looked
,ut on the crowd that had taken the
pluses of thos4 who greeted me as a
"tenderfoot," I mentally repeated the
motto of the new "west:" "Keep
up with the bnrd wigon or full in the
rear."
Typical of the Probdingnagian
strides of this new order of things,
thirty rotting skeletons cumber a ram
shackle row of sheds on the suburbs of
lioise. Sun and wind, rain and snow
find their way down and through the
t.ogleeted roof upon their bodies, anil
ns year after year goes by they answer
'o the n"-' nvi t'io pl',m-its, and fall
uway into dust and oblivion.
Yet thev deserve a better fate. On
their weathor-lx-ntcn forms are the
murks of rifle bullets; within their pro
tccting sides came the best blood of
the east, to find new homes and extend
the empire of the great republic.
These thirty leather-springed, steel-ri'iW-d
overlund stages were for yean
the one connecting link between the
liardy miners and pioneer of southern
Idaho anil "home." Their very sight
recalls Indian fights, highway rol
Wira and durc-ilevil flights. In them
lives the essence of the fast dying
"Wild West" Their day Is past; their
past is but a tale; their present is for
gotten. I asked Owyhee Joe about them once. '
Owyhee Joe had Wen a famous driver.
Will) stories are tnld of hisdnring trips
up from WiniieiiiiK'i'B or out from lioise
with a cnurli well loaded with gold
dust, prosiH-ctiirs and government
mail. Like lien Ilolliday ami Yuba
I, ill, his achievement live ill the niein

inhabitants and gruw in luster a the

It was a hot, sultry afternoon. I had,
out in "cupy" fur the outside page of

how slniut the tim when you were re

ern-'f and senator ir,ee, th sam",
Col. Robbins, Jim Agnew an' Hank
Fisher. We made a bee line 'cross
country to head him off. Changed
hosses three times. Vie struck his
trail, found whar his hoss had broke
down an' he'd stolen another. That
stolen hoss meant a necktie party.
Sabe?
"In twenty-four hours we came in
sight of him. Hoss played out. Game
up. Nothin' but sand and sag-e brush
fur miles, excent ono lne troo. Kinder
placed there by Providence, McConnell
said. Thar thet young feller set one
leg over the horn of his saddle. Fine
looker. Stood six in his stockintrs. I
knew him the minute I sot eyes on
"o nucty jur, uuv never Lvviirireu.
UiU McConnell war ahead, and he
opened the meetin' without singin'.
" 'Good morning, stranger.'
" 'Good morning.'
" 'Seen anything of a man about
your sine straddle of a sorrel mare look
in' a heap like the one you ride?'
" 'No, I haven't.'
" 'That's a purty good mare o' yourn.'
" 'Yes, she was worth a cool five hun
dred dollars, but she's a little winded
now; say, mister, I'll give you five
hundred dollars clear for that one o'
yourn and stop the deal,' Ue was
making a good bluff, Mister Editor.
Hoss stealin' in them days was death
on the spot. lie knewjwe war on him.
His offer would well pay for the
broken-down hoss, and ho war a
bankin' that his money would pull
him through. But, yer see, he didn't
know McConnell. Mac had been cap'n
of the vigilants back in '03, up in ther
Basin, and had a name ter keep white.
IIe just smiled at the man's innocence.
'That's a straight blind o' your'n, pard,
an it stands us to come in, but we're
thar an' hold you over. You look a
leetle mite played out, p.s well as yer
mare. If you'll jest get . wn an' jiue
our little party, it'll stri-., i yer legs,
an' mebbe ye need stretehin' n il over.'
"He got a little white tinder the
gills, but slid down without a word.
We followed suit, and Agnew threw
over his head a noose, an' passin' the
other end over a limb of that lone old
tree, nodded that things war ready.
"That young fellow was game ter
the last. Never moved a muscle.
Seemed kinder like a shame. McCon
nell went up to him and said:
" 'Now, pard, is everything all right?
Does it fit your neck accordin' to
Iloyle?'
" 'All right.'
" 'Have you anything to Ray why
this 'ere little picnic shouldn't pro
ceed?" " 'Nothin'.'
" 'Have ye got any word ter leave to
yer friends? If ye have, make it short,
fur we're goin' to break camp inside er
ten minutes.'
"That young feller took his eyeR off
a bit of sage brush fur the first time
and looked us straight in the eyes.
His eyes war blue. I took notice
OI
that, u n' his face was clean
Utid kind:
of pure look! n He didn't mt in to be
takiu' much interest in what war goin'
on 'round him. Kinder had afur-away,
talkin'-ter-the-nngels look. Made me
feel as though I didn't count nohow.
Kept thinkin' of something I learnt in
Sundny school in Missouri when I
warn't bigger nor that basket o'
papers. 1 lien lie came to, an drawin
u crumpled letter from his pocket, !
spoke with a kinder tremble in his
voice: j
" 'Perhaps you are a Wtter scholar !
nor I lie. If you'll jest rend that an'
lie kind ennf to answer it, I'll tell yer
wnat ter suy."
"McConnell had already passed the
roil of rnjie to -Urn Agnew and he hud
drawn it taut. He took the letter, tin,
as we hung around kinder curious like,
he oHned it an' read out loud:

THOSE
BACHELOR GIRLS.
How They
Radiate Happiness and nave
Inn.
The world has improved in one re
spect. There was a time when the
woman who did not marry was sup
posed to be a subject for jest; when it
was concluded that she remained un
wed because she could not do anything
else.
Nowadays it is all changed, and the
woman who does not marry has a
recognized position socially, and we
have all grown wise enough to know
that any woman who wishes can
marry, says the New York correspond
ent of the Pittsburgh Press. It is true
she may not marry the man she most
admires, but always she can marry
some man; so that if she stays out her
life alone is by her own choice.
Then, too, the beautiful friendships
that may exist between women are
recognized, and the possibility of a
home being made without a man in it
is acertainty. In Hats, in dainty little
houses, two or three bachelor women
(they don't call themselves girls), j
whose lives are so arranged that one
can be the homekeeper while the other
is out in the world, are happy and com
fortable from day to day. j
And better still, they are Mot only
happy themselves, but they make less
fortunate women glad by bringing j
thein in to share some of their pleas-'
ures. They give agreeable little dinner
parties, they entertain in quiet ways,
and always these women whose names
are not heard in connection with votes,
nor whose pictures are seen in the
papers, as uniting those who inteud to
remodel the city government.

propose to be instrumental in the pro
tection of birds and in time introduce
such bills in the legislature. At present
we are much interested in the bill now
pending, which relates to the game
laws of Illinois.
"The Chicago Audubon society is, I
believe, the only organization of the
kind in the United States," she con
tinued. "There was one in New York,
but it has disbanded."
The society numbers forty-four mem

QUICKEST HANGING ON RECORD
Legal Execution Performed Inside of Four
Minute, to Accommodate Reporter..
Capt. J. B. Patten, warden of the In
diana state? prison at JeiTersonville,
has the record for superintending the
quickest legal hanging ever accom
plished in this or any other country,
says the St. Louis Republic. The laws
of Indiana prescribe that the death
sentence must be executed between
midnight and the dawn of the day set
by the court. A man named Stone had
butchered a whole family in Davis
county, of that state, and had been
condemned to death. The case was a
celebrated one, and newspaper men
from Indianapolis and Louisville went
down to JeiTersonville in a perfect
phalanx to witness and report the
famous criminal's exit from this vale
f tears. They arrived in the early
evening, expecting to return to their
homes on a train leovtng JeiTersonville
about one o'clock, by which time they
expected the execution to be over. To
their intense disappointment and
chagrin they discovered that the last
train they could take departed from
the prison town at twelve o'clock at
night.
Having determined this they set
about arranging matters so they could
see the hanging and yet catch the
train. They telegraphed the circum
stances ahead to the conductor, asking
wj iium wiu hiiiiu until oibcr vua
execution. Ue consented to hold It

Hut, nevertheless, they commenced to
work on Wurden Putten. The result
was that everything was at onee gotten
ready for sending tho murderer to
eternity. Promptly at the stroke of
midnight tho parson finished liii
