-4 'rf- "1"*, PECK'S BAD BOY WITH THE CIRCUS By HON. OEOBOE W, Author of "Pacfc'aBaiBoy Abroad.' I* XUna the nmaftttlkt Woou with Diiutrou tucky Colonel ffaw Tries to Boar Lilu a Lion and thi Bhinoceros Objects—Pa Plays the Blot-Xachine and Gets flu Wont xt- ft- This has be«n an eventful week with the show. We hare had heat prostra tions in Kentucky, nearly the whole show got drunk on 15-year-old whisky, and if it hadn't been for the »nim»i« keeping sober this show would have been pulled for disorderly conduct. Nobody knows how the row started, but pa says every man in Kentucky carries a blue gun and a bottle of red licker, and they wear white hats, so the red, white and blue business is all right, only it is a combination that is death on a circus. I think one of the ushers, at the afternoon performance, told an old colonel that he must move along quicker, when the colonel began to talk back, and aay, "Who is you talkln' too, sah?" And the usher stood I Punctured Pa's Sires. it as long as ha could, when he tdpk the colonel by the collar and sat him down so quick he didn't come to for a couple of minutes, and when the colonel got his sense?, and found that the usher had ushered him into a seat between two gaily decorated colored women the trouble began. The colonel never forgot that he was a gentleman, for he rose up, took off his hat to the colored women, and said: "You must excuse me, ladies, but I shall have to go and kill the scoundrel who sat me down with niggers," and he got down off the seats and struck the usher with his cane, and the usher yelled: "Hey, Rube!" and all the circus people made a rush for the colonel. The colonel said, "Men of Kentucky to the rescue," and before I could crawl und6r the seats the air was full of baggage, seats, tent pins and white hats, guns were fired, and blood flowed, and the police pulled everybody, and the eve ning performance was given up. One of the proprietors of the show got a wen on his head as big as a foot ball from beiri£ struck by a handle of a revolver, and the colonel who started the row was knocked silly by a tray of Chased by Police. •ad lemonade which the butcher smashed him with, and the colonel cried because the lemonade was all water, and he was afraid it would •oak into him and cause him to warp. When the lemonade butcher apolo gised, and the usher told him it was all a mistake his being seated with the niggers, the colonel wept on their and invited the whole crowd to go to his distillery and help them •elves. When we got to the next town every nun in the show had a grouch and a Katzenjammer, and their hair was so sore It was murder and suicide com bined to comb it The way pa eacaped injury |as 'cause lie had to take the place oJ the tet woman on the platfonn »with tip beak*, aa the fat woman* "wis oftfr come with the heat and had to stay in the car. The Way they fixed pa up to resem ble the fat woman, was scandalous. They have some rubber things in the wardrobe teni: that, you can blow up and m*ke a big arm, and a big leg, and a.' bir stnmmick, so anybody couldn't toil the '^difference, and they fixwl pa up with blowed tip clothes of fiaah Colored rubber, and but for his «iH«i ^rhisKere yfla couldn't tell him from {he fit woman.

It was tab much forinei and I- Jast blod at pal I sot op fel^nd htm and toldi him in a whis that I wanted a dollar to play the slot machine, and he told me to go to thander, and get oat of there. I' couldn't stand It to b* insulted by my own father, so I took s*'hatpin out of the hat of the bearded lady and punched It into pa's blowed up rubber shirt, and pa began to sis, like a soda fountain, and the wind struck the liv ing skeleton arid blew him over like a cyclone, and By that time pa was blowing off wind in a dozen places that I had punctured, and he was Beared for fear there wouldn't be anything left of him, and the giant saw the fat woman slowly fading away, mnd the coward had heart failure and lay down on the platform. Somebody shouted that the fat woman was all melting away, and a fellow who was watering a camel out of a bucket came to the rescue and threw the bucket of dirty water all over pa, and then I thought I better go away in tother tent and see the light, but pa was taken to the dressing room and rescued from the shrinking rub ber balloons that were busted, and he said he would hunt the man that punc- tureO his tire to his dying day, but he didn't know it was me. Gee, it looks to me as though pa has been engaged to act as the easy mark in this show. Say, they got pa to practice on roaring like a lion, so he could stand behind the cage when the lion has a sore throat and roar, and scare folks, and pa has been going around behind the cages, every eve ning, when the menagerie is closed, and the crowd in the main tent, mak ing noises that have made the animals look at each other as much as to say, "Well, what do you think of that?" The rhinoceros was so disgusted at Paducah that he reached out his nose and took pa on his horn and held him up to the scorn of the other animals until pa's pants gave way and he was a sight, and he was so scared that he got out of the tent and made a run for our train, chased by the police, who thought he was a burglar that had been eat by a house dog. The worst thing we have had on pa was at Louisville, where we stayed over Sunday. Another fellow and got a system on slot machines, and one day we beat the machines out of a shotbag full of nlckcls, and when we showed up at the tent all the fellows wanted to know how we did it, and pa said it was gambling, and we ought not to do it, but he also wanted to know how we managed to win, and. when we told about it pa said it was no sin to beat a slot machine, 'cause it was an inanimate thing, just a machine, and anybody who could beat a nickel in the slot machine at his own game was equal to a Rockefeller. So after everybody had got excited about our nickels I told them how to beat the machine. I told them I didn't get excited and go rushing in where angels fear to tread, and feed the •lot machine on good hard earned nickels of my own,but waited until the countrymen and tenderfeet had fed it tta nickels until it was too full for ut terance. When the machine swelled out like it was blowed up, and it kind of wheezed, like it was ready to cough up, and was only waiting for an ex cuse, I put a cough lozenger about the size of a nickel in the slot and turned the diaphram. The machine shud dered a minute and then had a regular hemorrarue, and coughed up a tin cup ful of nickels into my band, and the machine seemed to rest easy, and take nourishment again from the silly fel lows, who thought they could beat it. Well, sir, the whole crowd was so ex tend? watt to fla| •ad *"nr the* haaafct aaarly aU aay ooogh toaaanara, and waat out Mb the aight, and pa and I waat along, 'cauae pa said he nnder rtaod |ill the alot atstMnn owned by Rockefeller, and ha atora money on than than ha did oa Standard oil, and the money that ha Save away to ackooJa and churohea waa from his rake-off oa his alot ma chlaea. Pa said it would ha a good thing lf aomeona ^ouid break up -&a rsprehenalble practice by beating the blasted machines to a finish. So pa he got a bag to bring back the nickels In, and a bunch of us waat to a store where one whole aide of the place was filled with alot machines, and the way the people were playing the game was scandalous. Pa watched a machine until the players had fad ao It seemed as though it would die un less It got air, and he stepped up and put in a lozenger and turned the wheel, and held the bag under the spout for the coin, but it didn't come. Soma more fellows put in nickels, and th« machine gave little hacking coughs and coughed up three or four nickels, but nothing that seemed at all in the nature of a financial hemmorague, when pa took another, lozenger and put it in, and by ginger the machine began to heave up nickels like it waa In the trough of "he sea. Pa was so excited he forgot to hold the bag, and nickels went all over the floor, and everybody made a grab for them, and pa was shoved aside, and ha swore he would have the place pulled, and just then a law officer took pa in charge because he had put a cough los enger in the slot machine, and he searched pa and found a lot more bronchial trochees, and pa was in for it on a charge of malpractice, for giv ing cough medicine for the stomach trouble of the slot machine, instead of pepsin tablets. They took pa in a back room and searched him some more, and found his roll, and then a man who said he was a lawyer offered to help pa, and keep him out of the penitentiary. He told pa the law of Kentucky made the crime of trifling with a slot .machine the same as breach of promise, or ar son, and that he would be lucky If ha got off with ten years in the pen, with 30 days' solitary confinement in a Turkish bath cell, with niggers for companions. Pa turned blue and asked the lawer if there was no way out of it, and the lawyer told him that for $120 in spot cash he would let him go, and fight the case after the show had got out of the state. A hundred and twenty five dollars was the amount they found on pa, and he told them that Inasmuch as they already had it, they better keep the money and let him go, and he would be always a living example of the terrors of gambling. So they let pa go. and all the way to the train he told us he hoped thla experience would be a lesson to us not to covet the money of the rich, and as far as he was concerned, John D. Rockefeller could go plum to thunder with his money after this. Then we got to the car, and found about a dozen of the circus men who had been out to beat the slot machines, broke fiat, and I had to divide my shot bag of nickels with them, that I had won before I let them Into the game, before they would let me go to bed. Dad says this circus life is making me pretty tough. BEGINNING TO DOUBT. Pormer Legislator Who Peels That He Sold His Vote Too Cheap. "It beats all about this political cor ruption," said the old farmer as he laid aside his country paper. "Every week there is something abont expos ing some big man who was thought to be perfectly honest, and it's getting so you don't know whom to trust." "Were you ever in politick your self?" was asked. "Once, and that's what's bothering me now. Yes. I waa elected to tha legislature once. While I was serv ing as a member a fellow-member «"i« to me and said that my aunt ia Iowa had died and left me 92,000, and he paid the money over to me. I had never heard about the aunt, .and I don't know how he got the money for me, and I am just beginning to doubt" "To doubt what?" "Wall, I voted for a land grab and we carried it by only four majority, and I'm just beginning to doubt if I got enough for my vote. I think if I bad. held out a few days I'd have bad an uncle die, too, and got as much as $3,000 out. of the thing."—Baltimore American. Largest Ocean Steamer. Consul General -Gueuther, of .-Frank* fort, says the world's largest steam ship is the Kaiserin Augusta Victoria, 684 feet long, 25,000 tons, which was launched August 24, at the Vulcan yards, Stettin. He writes that the new boat will have a net tonnage of 21,000. The engines indicate 17,200 horsepower the speed will be 17 knots an hour, so that the trip from Europe to New York will be made in seven and one-half days. In addition to the regular dining-room, the ship will be supplied with a restaurant a la carte and with electric elevators and an electrically-lighted bathroom. Some of Missouri's Boasts.

What a bright little face bis has, hasnt he?" —Detroit Free Press. FIX UP THE ROADSIDES. Sow Farmara la Waneaota Utillae the Otherwiae Waste Land In Crop Growing. The law of Minnesota calls for a pub lic highway four, rods wide and it haa been the general practice to leave the 'full four rods uncultivated. In most cases this space haa been overgrown with weeds only, that were not even cut down once a year. In this way many of the most obnoxious weedt have filled the adjoining fields and been spread over the adjoining coun try by sticking to the wagon wheels whenever the roads were wet Thi| has not been the only trouble—there were thousands of acres lying idle ev ery year, because overgrown by weeds. But Lewis Olsen writes to tne Farm and Home that a gradual change fot the better is being worked out by the rapidly growing tendency among farm ers to utilize all wafete land along the roadsides by cultivation and growing grain or grass up to the very road track actually in daily use. As the law WMt** TWO METHOD8 OP WORKING A RQADSIDE. allows the cultivation of all the land not in actual use for the road, it has b} experience been found that roads art improved by having all the land, in cluding the shallow ditches on tne pides, plowed and cultivated. The ac companying sketch shows a public highway where one side of it was left without cultivation or care for years and all is overgrown with coarse weeds, while on the other Bide, even the ditch is carefully plowed and cultivated with a good stand of wheat, growing up to the wheel track. Of course the farmer could not collect any damages if the grain thus grown on the right of pub lic highway should be destroyed, but there is an unwritten law which all will respect, that no one will wantomy destroy any of the grain so grown Where this practice is continued for a number of years, the roadbed will be gradually raised until it becomes high and dry and little or no grading is re quired. APPLE TREES AND RABBITS Necessity of Protecting the Young Trees from the Gnawing of the Animals. When rabbits run in t-e orchard, is not safe to let young apple trees go through the winter without protection, declares the Farmers' Review. As oth er food becomes scarce the rabbits are almost sure to bark the young trees, especially when there is snow on tha ground. I have seen various preven tives recommended, and, among 4hem, rubbing tbe trees with soap. I tried this last winter and lost some of my best trees—not by rabbits, but by the preventive, soap. It killed the bark and the trees gradually died during the summer. The best thing I have tried as a protection is wrapping the tree with common newspapers, folded to three or four thicknesses and tied on with twine or the ravelings of a tow sack. Expert hands can make the ap plication very rapidly and it seems to be perfectly successful. If you could be sure of killing all the rabbits that would be another good plan. GRAVEL OR HARD ROADS. Too Expensive in Some Localities— Not Necessary If Xing Drag Is Used. Something like a year ago there was quite an excitement in our county on the road question. The farmers of Knox county, Illinois., writes the cor respondent of the Farmers' Review, want good roads, but gravel or hard roads are out of the question. We have no gravel or rock, and to ship stone would break up all the small farmers in the country. Our soil is such that if the roads are graded prop erly we will have good roads nine or ten months in the year. There are places in the United States where such roads can be built. Even oiled roads may be built in some places. But in this part of Illinois the frost goes so deep that the expense would take the big end of little farms to pave the roads it contains. [The use tit the King drag has shown how the difficulties mentioned may be overcome and a good road obtained.—Ed.] A HOT DINNER. Arrangement for Retaining the Heat of Pood and Drink on the Coldest Days. To keep your Weather, while dinner hot in cold working away from home, have a box just large enough to hold the dinner box and coffee can. Make a tight cov er, put some hay in the bottom of box, then a large hot soapstone. Set your dinner box and coffee can on that pack hay in the corners and lay two or three thick nesses of cloth on top. This, declares Farm and Home, will keep your dinner warm in the coldest weather. WORD TO THE WISE. Give tbe hen meat. A scent (tainted) spoils the face of a dollar. Of course the botbed soil has been made ready. New land or sod land should be plowed at the first opportunity. The farmer who uses the poorest part of his place for pasture is likely to lose by it You can raise the frame of a calf without milk, but not the plctura of a good animal. MAKING flvarp Paraur Skoald Select aadPra paro Hla Own Mnraery I took— How Zt Za Bane.' Fsw people realise how simple a matter It la to propagate ona'a own grape vines, currants, gooaaberrles aad most ornamental shrubs. If the work is properly done these plants may be readily propagated by BMaas of cuttings made late in tha autuma after the leaves are off of the plants, but preferably before cold weather comes on. Only Mil ripened, •—•"it* wood that has grown during tha nr» ceaing summer should.be selected for the purpose, all soft or Immature parts being discarded. The cuttings themselves should be made six to ten inches long and the base of each should be cut squarely just below a bud, so the bud is retained at the low er end. They should be tied up lni bundles of convenient size, say. 100 in a bundle, their butts, or basil ends, all one way, well shaken down, so as to stand level on a flat table. They may then, be packed in fresh, moist saw dust and be kept through the winter in a cellar or .callus pit. Upon the approach of spring, as early as the soil can be worked and before the buds have begun ^o grow on them, says Prof. J. C. Whitten, of Missouri agricultural college, they should be planted out in good garden soil. The rows shovfld be about four feet apart to admit of easy cultiva tion, and the cuttings should be set very firmly in the soil, so as to leave no air spaces about them, and set deep enough so only the uppermost buu is above the ground. They should then be given clean cultivation and hoed to keep down all weeds during the summer, when usually an excel lent growth of plants will be secured. Currants, gooseberries, the MarlaA na and Golden Beauty plums, some varieties of quinces, the barberry, spiera, mockorange, privet, most va rieties of shrubs, willows, poplars and some other varieties of forest trees, root readily from cuttings handled in tu.8 manner. APPLE WAGON PLATFORM. Convenient Arrangement for the Wagon Which Will Facilitate Handling. The style of wagon, platform that is most generally tided in western New York for hauling apples is made of three planks forming a platform just wide enough for two barrels standing on end, side by side, and long enough for a load of 18 to 20 barrels (see illus tration). Stakes are provided on tbe side for a rail about half way up on the barrels, or better, an iron about one-half by two Inches, bent in tbe form 2, same cut. A board one by four inches rests on the bend, and is provided with a clip, 3, that will slide RIGGING TOR APPLE WAGON, over the stake iron, so the rail can be easily lifted off, and the barrels un loaded from the side of the wagon, which is often very convenient. The plank should be stiff, and bolted to gether with three bed pieces two by four inches. This is a very convenient platform, as it can be used for drawing crates, and for many other purposes. Another very good rack for a billy or rough country, and one that is in quite common use in many sections, is made by taking three poles or timbers and running them lengthwise of the wagon, equal distances apart, and secured to gether by cross pieceB. The middle pole should be raised four to six inches above the other two. The barrels are laid on the side end to end, lengthwise of the wagon, two abreast on the bot tom, and another row on the top of these two, lapping one-half on each barrel. This is a very simple construc tion, and the spring of tbe poles makes it very nice for carrying tbe fruit. Wagon springs should always be used with either of the above forms. Removing Chaff from Eyes. To remove chaff or similar sub stances from an animal's eye procure a small quantity of honey and have the animal's head held fast. Open the eye with the thumb and finger of one hand, dip the forefinger of the other in the honey, taking up as much as will stick on the end of your finger. Hold the finger near, the eye, and give a sudden strike so it hits the chaff, which will stick to the honey and be drawn out. By giving a quick strike you hit the chaff before the ani mal can shut or roll the eye, as it will do if you attempt to touch it slowly. Thunderstorms and Sour Milk. A subscriber wants to know, says the Missouri Agricultural College Farmer, why milk often sours more quickly just after a thunderstorm than during ordinary weather. The primary cause of sour milk is the growth of certain bacteria that are al ways very numerous in the air and cannot be kept out of the milk. These are most abundant during damp, beavy weather, which usually accom panies thunderstorms, as such weather is particularly favorable to their de velopment. Hence, the popular notion that thunderstorms make milk sour. Killing Poison Ivy. Cover poison ivy with tarred sheath ing paper, overlapping the joints and weight down with boards or joist. The object is to exclude the light and air. Leave this on, possibly for two years, and it will smother out to the last root the thickest and toughest bed of lv,v. Cheap Land in Walnuts.

"Wall, 1 don't know," 1 replied. "Just what instances do you refer to?" "I was tlunkin' of an event that hap pened foui or five years ago, suh.

"Well?" "The gang arrived one night and they captured me, my brother-in-law, my uncle, my cousin, and a neighbor, and every one ot us got a term in the Albany pen itentiary."

Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crusts —Hands Pinned Down—Mirac ulous Cure by Cuticura. "When my little boy was six months old, he had eczema. The sores extended so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but '•he could not help him, and in our despair we went to third one. Matters became so bad that he had regular holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger into. The food had to be given with a s.oon, for jus mouth was covered with crusts as thick as a finger, and whenever he opened tbe mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also hia eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and bcck, in short the whole body, was 1 covered over and over. We had no rest I by jay or night. Whenever he was laid in his bed, we had to pin his hands down: otherwise he would scratch his face, and make an open sore. I think his face must have itched most fearfully.
