ternoon contains the following remarkable story of the loss and subsequent finding of a stemwinding watch by the sheriff of the county Many curious and hardtobelieve stories are told nowadays but this one is more than conditioned to hold its own with any that have been reported in the papers The following is the sum and substance of the telegram Sheriff Turner is showing as his Christmas present a stemwinding case watch that he claims has a hisiory un matched by any other watch in Tennes see and doubts if there is another like it in the whole country In December 1905 while hunting in the coaling he lost the watch and though he searched carefullyfor it was unable to find it He gave it up for lost and had forgot ten all about it Last week Logan Mc Craw and Alex Holliday went rabbit hunting in the coaling and raising a rabbit McCraw fired and missed then Holliday fired just as the rabbit ran into a hole and killed it McCraw ran hastily to the hole put his hand in and pulled out the rabbit and was surprised to see something shining at the mouth of the hole He stooped over and picked up the sheriffs watch and yelled By Jacks when he heard it ticking and both were astonished when the watch was opened to find it was within half a minute of the correct time by their watches They then looked at the rabbit and the secret was out for there on its belly the fur had been rub bed off in a place that exactly fitted the stem of the watch showing that the rabbit had kept it wound up by rubbing against the stem as it went in and out of the hole The sheriff will not tell the make of the watch only saying it is a rabbit watch 10 ANOTHER SALE OF EQUITY TOBACCO The executive committee of the Green River district A S of E has made mother big sale of tobacco consisting of all the

took his turnover to the settee In the corner of the waiting room and began to eat He had on a worn cloth cap with an attachment Unit could be pulled down to cover the ears and a shabby over coat of mans size very much too large for him As he munched the greasy crust and the thin layer of evaporated apple he looked around him with Interest The station Itself was like the aver age railway building

and year old announcements of excursions and county fairs hung above them big stove set In a box of sawdust all these were the regulation fixtures Regula Lion also were the refreshments on the counter

peep withIn The air In the shut waiting room smelled pt lot stove sawdust wet clothing and Mr Clarks cigar To this collection of perfumes was presently added the odor of kerosene as the station agent lit the big lamps In their brackets on the wall From outside came the sounds of creaking wheels and stamping horses the stamping muffled by the snow which covered the ground The door opened and a big man with a face of which gray whiskers and red nose were the most prominent features came stamping und pulling Into the room lIe jerked off a pair of leather gloves playfully shook the congealed moisture from them down Mr Clarks neck Inside his collar tossed a long whip Into the corner and holding his spread fingers over the stove began to sing Whoa Emma with enthusiasm Mr Clark being too busy clawing the melting snow from his neck to open a conversation Mr Bodkin observed Hello Barney Small Hows the tray In Have a rough time drlvln over Oh mlddlln mlddlln replied the driver of the

Two Carloads of English Pheasants to Be Distributed Throughout The State Two express cars earring about 1900 English pheasants passed through Kan sas City yesterday afternoon on the way to Pratt Kan The birds were imported direct from England and consigned to the game warden of Kansas Dell Travis They are to be distributed in the various counties with a view of stocking the State with the game The game warden made a contract with K C Beck of Nickerson Kan an importer of birds for 1000 pairs of pheasants but about 100 of them died on the way to this country- It required eight express cars of the English style to carry the birds from London to Liverpool said the man in charge of the pheasants You see there is plenty of room in these two American cars A few of the birds died on the train from New York but most of the 100 died on the boat They try to fly in the wooden crates striking their heads against the slats until stunned Since leaving New York Monday the birds have eaten 400 pounds of cabbage and more than 500 pounds of grain feed This is the second shipment of pheasants to Kansas About nine months ago 750 of the birds were imported from England and turned loose in the State The money used in purchasing the pheasants is taken from funds derived from the issuing of licenses to hunters The English pheasant is a hybrid be tween the ring necked pheasant and the pheasant of southern Europe The plumage of these birds is brillant that of the male being especially gorgeous TLey reproduce rapidly and in their habits of life are similar to the common barnyard fowl The history of the pheasant extends back to the days of ancient Rome and in all times the bird has been popular with sportsmen There are sixty species of pheasants known none of which is native to America The turkey is their closest relative in this country The Greatest of all Newspapers The greatest of all newspapers is the Daily Globe Democrat of St Louis It has no equal or rival in all the west and

Apparently Have Forgotten tier Stephensport Ky Dec 31For1 saken lonely and almost lifeless Aunt Betsy Roff lingers into another Ne Year with strong hopes that her chil11 dren for whom she has been waiting fifteen years might come to feed her starving soul When Aunt Betsy was at the ripe old age of 73 she was awakened to the fact that her children in their hunt for fame and riches had then wandered so far away that they had entirely lost sight of their mother and left her there in the old home without the crust of bread She bore this truth in silence t as long as she could but the time came when she was compelled to re veal her secret and ask the neighbors for help and comfort Not long ago Mrs Roff received th message that she could go to the Ma sonic home but she has not yet con sented to go from under her own roof find the protectfon of the good people I of Stcphensport Mr Roff has children living in Kansas Louisiana and other places Why they do not answer their mothers ap

You Have Always Bought Bears the- t3ignatnrt of- Recovery of the Educated Flea Two weeks or so ago a Baltimore showman lost a flea The averag- American citizen undergoes a privation of this kind with admirable fortitude There are reasons why under normal conditions the American citizen will1 part with even his most personal and immediate flea and no questions asked In this most particular case however the conditions were distinctly if not ex travagently abnormal The flea iin question was valuable It was in fact the star member of a company of per forming fleas upon the box office re sults of whose talent the Baltimore showman prospered took on luxurious tastes and cultivated a brisket of espe cial magnitude Naturally the bereav ed one advertised his woe and offered opulent rewards for capture and restor ation The lost flea was appraised of J100 and the full amount promised toly the agent of its recovery It seems a great fuss over an insect of doubtful character an ignoble reputation But such are the facts of the case and i our capacity as the historian of poignant events we feel obliged to communicate them to the world Within the past week the errant flea has been restored to its heartbroken proprietor Apparently there are few fleas in Baltimore Thus the search was free of complication and the identity of the truant easily established Things are different in Rome and Panama In Baltimore evidently no flea of consequence can possibly escape It remains I to be said however that the showmans rapture is not entirely complete His flea came back to be sure and he welcomed it with ill concealed affection butit was a battered and dishevellc- bug I Dissipation had left its angry marks There were the ragged head and bloodshot eyeinseparable concom I itants of immoral conduct and besides the prodigal exhibited a broken leg and most alarming symptoms of pneumonia The fracture is now in splint- and s the patient cared for at a flea hqs I pital of well established fame Let u hope for the best With careful nursin dsll l and truly scientific supervision theerrant insect may be restored to health an usefulnessII however to say that fleas of a frivolou- and violent disposition should n after be subjected to the f a night off in Baltimore If othcreff need a run let them have it In r phia or BostonNew York t NOT A SOUTHERNII COMMUNITY It would prehaps conduce to more in telligent discussion of the Twentyfifth Infantry affair if the various statesmen orators politicians and writers now en gageed in handling it so vigorously would discard the postulate of race an tagonism and inherited prejudice Brownsville is not a Southern com munity in any proper sense of the term Of course the numerically preponderat tag element is composed of Mexicans- w but of the whites it can safely be alleged that they ore almost wholly of North ern birth or extraction As a matter of fact there are very few born and bred Southerners in Brownsville nor can 1 it be said with truth that those few control the entiment or dictate the actions and expressions of the population As a rule the men who represent th financial social and material importance of the town are old soldiers of the Union army and their decendants Considered in mere number the South noses making their homes iu Drowns ville represent a very small minority Considered in respect of their influence upon the citys character attitude des- e tiny they cut no figure worthy of a second thought If Brownsville objected to the location there of a negro regl ment certainly the objection was not Inspired by Southern prejudice or actuated by inherited animosity No good can come of clouding the real issue with false hyprotheses and necea sarily misleading arguments The as sumption that Brownsville is a typical- t Southern community where everybody hates the negro and delights in subjecting him to injury and humilia tion will not bear a moments honest and enlightened iqulry The truth is that Brownsville so far as concerns the character influence and importance of its constituent elements is much more a Northern community than is either Chicago or New York The Brownsville incident is the diet I cussion is to serve any useful purpose must be divested of all confusing and meretricious complications and subject ed to the white light of well informed and candid investigation New

was hardly anticipated The usual preparation had been made for a Yaqui attack and most of those killed were shot down before any ef fort at defense could be made The band of outlaw Italians Is said to number about 100 Rumors of their depredations were rife Saturday when many ranchers fled to the towns for safety and reported a number of murders in the district southeast of Guyamas It was not believed how ever that the Yaquls would dare to attack a railroad station Lencho is one of the smallest stations on the Cananea Yaqul River Pacific road About 25 men under Foreman Thompson are employed there engaged in wellboring No sentries had beenm posted and the first intimation of m attack was a volley of rifle shots fired into the tent houses Immediately after the houses were set on fire and by the light of the flames the Yaquls shot at the frightened Mexicans who were trying to escape The reports re coined here say that in addition to the eight men killed at tho station a number of Mexicans wore wounded At a time when tho residents of the camp Including Thompson and his American wife seemed doomed the whistle of a work train was heard and a few minutes later tho train pulled

Rockefeller Jr is the leader held its tenth annual banquet at the Broadway Central Hotel Ice water flowed free ly and Mr Rockefeller told why he was a total abstainer He said To drink a glass of beer is not in Itself more harmful than to eat some kind of indigestible food The single action is not a sin but it is the abuse that the first leads to that is the sin I believe not only in temperance but in total abstinence and this for two reasons Firstbecause both my father and his father as well as my mothers father were strictly temperate second my mature judgment is that while there may be no harm in one glass that one glass leads on to another Therefore I say that one glass is one too many REVIVAL MEETINGS AT HARDINSBURG Hardinsburg Ky Dec 31Spec- ialThe revival which has been in progress
