What Bryan said to Johnion and what Johnson said to Bryan in the heart tohtart talk they had on the train speeding to Washington remains a deep, dark -mystery. Each has come out in an interview, either directly or inferentially pledging support if the other should be nominated at Denver. Johnson aaid: "I will support Mr. Bryan or any other democrat who ia nominated, for I want to see the democracy carry the country." Bryan said: "I think my record will answer that question." It will be recalled that Bryan supported Parker in 1904-to a certain extent apaanaaaaaaaaaaaaa In an opinion given Saturday Attorney General Crawford holds that the railroad commission has no authority to compel railroad companies to fence their trackt in this state. Numerous com plaints have come to the Com missioners asking that railroad be compelled to fence their rights of way, and the commission re ferred the matter to the Attor ney General, who states he has been unable to find any authority under which the commission can enforce such an order. (Original.) Halt century ngo what 14 now tho middle WMt wae tbe far treat. Parts If Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky wore Inhabited by a very rough people. I west oat there to tell gooU when I irai Terr young man, being about tbe flnt Mleeman to vl.lt vthe region, 0( couree 1 traveled armed mul kept my money In a money belt triHl around my waist I wai rather n llu ty boy and not averse at time to a mall game while traveling. Indeed, ( carried a puck of card, nnd dlor. line erenlug I was on a atiiKivoai-h that putled up at a tavern in a tunntl town tu Kentucky on the Ohio rler. t had gone there tu lake the tlr-t tteainboat that would pan. up to Cin cinnati, where I ronld I.Ike n railroad train for the east. .No one lonld loll lust when a boat would Mop thriv and I hnil fli lifiiMtu.'t uf ilr..,ri- tlm.. ahead of me. In Iboae dayj In th.il n glou gauibllug was open tin llu- Nut and In the laverus. During Hie v ru ing of my arrival I watclml n parly of men ahaklug dice lu the ti.tr. which was In tbe miiio room with the otlhv The neit day I 'nt my time wnicli tng for a steamboat. A iiiiuiIht of boats aaed. but none of ihetn had freight or passengers for that hindltiK. for they did not stop. In the etcnlrti: I went In and watched the dice Ihniw- lencIion jou." The tneii who hnd illsgorceil looked tery URly, but a I could ln seen by those on the boat k Iiir from the Intern to the Irtiidlutf I felt nfe to tvnlls there with my buck to Ihiwe- who I knew under other clr rutnutniicet would shool me. nnontiK DIS.NT.Y MIM.S. Humor an? Philosophy Br DUNCAN M. SMITIt When Leslie M. Shaw was sec retary of the treasury, he held that frog legs were poultry. The question "Is an egg livestock?" is now raised by G. F. SUtter of Sioux City, who has imported from England two settings of Black Orpington eggs. They were valued at $100 in the invoice and duties of $25 were assessed. Mr. Statter paid under protest and appealed to the department on tbe ground that eggs are livestock. Adjutant General Finzerof the Oregon National Guard, has giv en assurance that Astoria's peti tion for a company will be grant ed. Aa the state has at present all the infantry companies it is allowed under the military act, the Astoria company will be called tbe First battery coast artillery, but its equipment will be identi cal with that of the infantry com panies, ajwillitMrill. Two aged Crow Indians. Old Coyote and Bull Snake, are made pensioners of the government by a bill passed by the Senate plac ing them on the pension rolls at $60 a month. Both these Indians went to the relief of Generals Custer and Crook in their fight with the Sioux Indiana in 1876 and both were badly wounded. The political campaign recent ly decided upon by the American Federation of Labor will be di rected from Chicago. A number of speakers will be put in the field and it is also contemplated to pursue a vigorous and wide spread fight through the medium of campaign literature. Some of the Republican leaders of Indiana are authority for the statement that Representative Charles B. Landis of that state will be put forward as a vice-presidential candidate at Chicago if the Republican convention nomi nates Mr. Taft as the party's standard bearer. e , A Washington report says that Rear Admiral Winfield Scott Schley, retired, will be offered the Secretaryship of the navy in case William J. Jryaa it elected president. Now, 1 defy any young man of or dinary spirit speudlug hta time lu mirli a place watching a game without long ing to be In It. I reflated for aoiue time, for the men were a bad looking lot, then pulled out some coin nnd call ed for tbe dice box In my turn I played far Into tbe night and when I got up from tbe table bad parted with every cent of mouey I bad for my ex penses, some $300. I wa not quite o much of a fool as this confession Indi cates, for t bad noticed that my op" ponents knew exactly how to roll the dice to that the figures they wlahed should come up. IleaMes, I una not specially timid. When cleaned out I reached for the dice and put them lu my pocket Tbe men who bad won my money looked threatening, luit Mid nothing. To object would have been to confess that they were load ed. 1 had no Idee, of recovering my money by an exposure. I wlahed to satisfy myself aa to whether 1 had been swindled. Taking my candle, I went upstairs and to bed. Undressing, I threw my trousers on tbe back of a chair, not thinking, since .1 bad loat all my mou ey, to take any precautions for -their safety, but 1 didn't care to lose tbe dice till after I had a chance to break tbem, to I took tbem from tbe pocket and re placed tbem with my own set; then I went to bed and to sleep. I waa awakened during the ulght by some one tampering with my door. I lay still and presently beard the door open and a atealtby step In my room. A. figure passed tbe window, and I could bear It searching among my clothes; then It went out 1 got up, felt la my trousers' pocket for my dice, and they were gone. Tbe next morning I was not especial ly surprised to aee some of tbe men who bad my money still about tbe place. Uad they not, aa they supposed, secured tbe dice they would have got out of the way. After breakfast I told tbe landlord that I suspected that I had been swindled with loaded dice. Me professed to be very Indignant and wore that If ancb were tbe case be would make tbe men who bad won my money disgorge. I torn mm to can tbem la and I would prove my charge. They-came, and 1 could see by tbeUr assumed Indignation that they were confident that they bad tbelr dice and I could prove nothing. After they bad expended sufficient verbal ammunition tbey called upon ne to give a reason for assuming that tbe dire they bad played with were loaded. I asked the landlord for a hammer, and 'when be bod produced It I put my band lu my pocket and pulled out the dice I bad kept under my pil low. "Hold on." said one of tbem. "Those are not tbe dice." "Why sor I asked. "Because" He stopped abort lie couldn't own that I bad been robbed of set of dice. "Crack 'em,H I said to tbe landlord. tteluctantly be put one of tbem down oa tbe hearthstone and cracked It. There was the lead plain enough. Tbe men and tbe landlord stared at one another, surprised. Meanwhile I bad backed to a safe position and had my band on my pistol. Hearing tbe itroke of a steamboat bell-a signal to bank flret-I knew that a boat was about to land. "Ton men produce, my money," I said, "or I'll see what I can do when that boat lands." Tbe landlord .was In no mood for tbe reputation sucsTa charge would give bis place, and after a few words wltb tbe others be returned me my losings. I don't think I should have bad tbo courage to demand my money bad I not beard that stroke of a steamboat bell. It came In tbe nick of time. I stuffed tbe funds Into my pocket, ran pstalrs for my belongings and down again, keeping a sharp lookout and my haM on my pistol. Tnen before going to tbe landing I said: "You've done texMttbjnx .teCXUSattU PERT PARAGRAPHS.
