UNCEREMONIOUS*
As the end of the Civil war drew
near, the South fouud itseif in some
straits for food and other necessaries,
The biography of H. W. Alleu, whe
was then governor of Louisiana, de
scribes the depeudence of the people
upon him, and the unceasing efforts tc
keep them from starvation.
A friend stepped into Allen's office
at Shreveport, and found the governoi
seated before the fire, between twe
couutry-women?soldiers' mothersall
three taking a comfortable smoke
with their pipes. Allen was too courteous
a gentleman not to conform immediately'to
the custom of "ladies.'
So, as he rather enjoyed a pipe, he
would join them very socirlly.
His companions nan a iripie ciaim
upon him?they were women, soldiers
mothers and Louisianians.
"Well, governor," said one of his
callers, "we come to bother you again
you are such a friend to us poor women.
Now, governor, we got the
corn you sent us; but we ain't got nc
hoes and no plows to plant with."
The governor took his pipe from his
mouth, and turning to the secretary
said:
"Mr. Halsey, gives these ladies ac
order for a plough and two hoes, free
of charge."
"But, governor," they continued,
"we want some meal and molasses."
"Mr. Halsey, give the order for these
articles."
The women received the orders,
knocked the ashes from their pipes,
shook hands with Allen, and started
out of the door ; but halting at the
door, said :
" 1?1?
Weil, govemer, we uute uv? uvmci
you so much. You are the best man
alive. We are all going to name our
next grand-children after you; but we

Pig"Ladies,"
said the governor, kindly,
but with a perceptible smile curling
round the corners of his mouth, "you
shall have the well-rope ; but at present
we are out of pigs."

is tnis new suosiance i near ?u muuu
about?" asked the eminent scientist's
wife.
"What new substance, my dear?"
"The element in the air that has
just been detected ?"
"Oh, that, my dear," he answered,
beaming over his spectacles with the
good nature of superior wisdom, "is
known as argon."
"Oh!"
"Yes, its discovery is one of the
most remarkable triumphs of the age.
It has revolutinized some of the old
theories, or at least it will revolutionize
them before it gets through."
"What is it?"
"It's?er?a?did you say, 'What is
it ?' "

"Well?ahem?you see, we haven't
as yet discovered much about it except
its name."?Washington Star.
A Slight Misunderstanding.?A
lady employed a young girl about 15
years old, to assist her about her house
work, and one day she was making
some cake, and wished to put some
kind of plums in it; so she set a dish
down on the table with some plums,
and told the girl to stone them, and to
show her, she took up a plum and
took the stone out, with the remark?
"That is the way."
Then, thinking the girl understood
what she meant, she put the plum she
had into her mouth, instead of the
dish, and went away. WThat was her
surprise a short time after, to have the
girl come into the room where she was
and tell her she bad eaten all she could.
When the lady went into the room
where she had been at work, she
found she had put all the stones into
the dish, and eaten all she could of the
plums; she thinking that the hard
pieces?meaniug the stones?would
soften up when baked in the cake.
The Lawyer Solved it Quickly.
A famous lawyer once had a singular
case to settle. A doctor came to him
in great distress. Two sisters, living
in the same house, had had babies oi
equal age, who so resembled each other
that their own mothers were unable to
distinguish them when they were together,
and it happened that by the
carelessness of the nurse the children
naa necome mixen. now were iue
the mothers to make sure that they
received back their own infants'?
"But, perhaps," suggested the lawyer,
"the children weren't ehauged at
all."
"Oh, but there's no doubt that they
were changed," said the doctor.
"Are you sure of it?"
"Perfectly."
"Well, if that's so. why don't you
change thera back again? I don't see
any difficulty in that case."
Setting Hens.?In answer to a
correspondent who wants to know
"How to keep hens from setting," a
Western editor thus rises and explain*
There are several very good ways.
One plan is to make them into pot
pies about 17 days before they exhibit
any such evidence of chicken-heartedness.
Another good way is to watch
the hen and when she begins that peculiar
clucking, indicative of a desire tc
matriculate, wash her in sweet milk,
put mustard poultices on her feet and
hang up by the neck in a dark clothes
press for 93 or 94 hours. Should the
demoralized biddy be cut down before
the time for setting, she will probably
set out for some other locality.
Another good way would be to read
the riot act; then, if they will not
disperse, wallop them gently over the
head with a brick, shoe, chunk ol
stone or a horsehoof with the shoe on,
and if the old hen won't behave herself,
why?le t her set!

REMEDY FUR NEURALGIA.
Joseph Bonaparte, ex-king of Spain
and Naples, and elder brother of the
great Napoleon, lived for a number of
years at Bordentown. He and Commouore
Stewart were close friends,
and it was on the advice of the latter
that the Frenchman made his home for
a number of years on the bauks of the
Delaware. One day a workman of
Rnnanarte's was attacked so violently
with neuralgia that the attending
physician said he could not live more
than a day or two, uuless he obtained
relief. The sufferer had the agonizing
ailment all through his body, and was
in such torture that death would have
been welcome.
At this crisis the proverbial old woman
appeared, and the poor fellow, by
her directions, was swathed from head
to foot in the common burdock leaf.
Twenty-four hours later he resumed
work in the hayfield.
Sometime afterward neuralgia siezed
Stewart's right leg, and forced him
to bed. He suffered excruciatingly,
and when Bonaparte sent the same
woman to him he told her he would
submit to any experiment that held
out hope. The woman came with an
armful of burdock leaves, from which
she had removed the ribs, and the
limb was bound in them. After a time
Stewart fell asleep, and did not awaken
for hours.
When he opened his eyes there was
no pain in the limb. He supposed,
however, it was because he had secured
an easy position, and he lay for a
lone time without moving. Finally,
by way of experiment, he timidly
twitched his great toe ; there was no
answering twinge. Then he worked
the ankle; still there was no pain.
Then the whole limb was swung back
and forth with much vigor. The next
moment the happy victim emmitted
shout and leaped out upon the floor,
for the neuralgia was gone.
Commodore Stewart was later in
command of the Philadelphia navy
yard, and he told his brother officers of
the wonderful remedy.
"Some months afterward," said he,
"I was surprised by a call from several
ladies, wives of the officers whom I ,
knew. I inquired to what I was indebted
for the honor of the visit, and ,
they replied that they had called to
thank me for my remedy for the neu- ,
ralgia, which I had told their husbands,
and which in their cases had ,
produced the happiest results. I as- ,
3ured them that I was very glad to ]
learn that such was the fact; but when
they said the neuralgia was in their j
heads, I expressed regret that they n
must have been obliged to part with h
their hair. 'Uh, no,' they raaae nasie
to answer, 'we just put it on over the <
hair, and it answered perfectly.' " I
The commodore always resorted to j
the burdock, for, of course, the neural- <
gia was liable to return. He found, <
after writing a good deal, that it was <
liable to attack him in the wrist, in (
which event a never failing remedy i
was at hand. There were always a i
large number of the plants growing j
during the seasou on his place. ]
The method is to remove the ribs
from the leaves aud then simply to <
bind them over the part affected, every |
portion of which should be covered. '
The remedy certainly can hurt no one, i
aud may be the means of preventing a (
great deal of sufferiug. i
COLIC IN HORSES.
As the remedy is highly recommend- '
id by several writers of high authority, <
and as colic is the disease most com- i
along among horses, and sometimes s
proves fatal, we deem it a matter of J
sheer justice to our readers that we call <
attention to chloride of lime as a rem- <
*dy for colic which is claimed to be I
speedy and unfailing. 1
Colic is produced by some fermentiug
food that causes a rapid accurau- '
lation of gas in the stomach, which <
distends the paunch and entrails, caus- '
iug pain and finally inflammation and <
death if relief is not had in time. It is '
this gas that must be got rid of, and 1
chloride of lime is the proper remedy. <
It neutralizes the gas, and brings
speedy relief. It is, so it is claimed, *
one of the most effective remedies, 1
known. And being cheap, and safe to '
uou iii ouiuii ^uuuiiucoj 10 yai cavwhvuvv
the remedy for the family to haudle. (
A heaping tablespoonful of the lime 1
in a pint of warm water, or half pint of <
spirits, is a dose for a full grown horse.
Every farmer should keep some of the (
chloride of lime always on hand. It '
is very useful about privies aud other I
places of offensive smell, manure piles, '
etc. It is good for bloat or hoven, as '
well as colic, either in cattle or horses. '
Indeed, the two diseases are very near- 1
ly allied, and result very often from ]
the same causes. There may be colic
without bloat, but not. often bloat without
colie. And as colic is a disease of
quite frequent occurrence every one '
should keen a remedv ouite near bv 1
thc-m. From what is said and claimed
for chloride of lime, we are disposed
to look upon it as the remedy for this
ailment.
In the first stages, whisky or some
other .spirit may be used with the
ilrench, say half pint of the spirit and
half pint of the water. But if the disease
has been on long enough to produce
inflammation, should prefer something
less irritating than spirits if at
all strong. In general use, we should
use nothing but water to dissolve the
lime and make a drench. Keep
some chloride of lime in the barn and
never be without a reliable remedy for
a sudden case of colic. The lime is
good to drive away rats, sprinkled
about where they run. They will
leave for other quarters.
BfiT "Shut out illiterates, and you
arrow down immigration a great
deal," said Senator Lodge, iu an interview,
recently. This is true. The addition
of an educatioual test is the next
thing to be done to give us a better
class of immigrants.

UNLUCKY MIKES LAST BET
The Silver Dollar lie Found 011 the Duy Hi:
Children Were Orphaned.
From the New York Times.
A big gang had gathered at "Japan
ese Tommie's" gambling pavilion, ii
the Creek Indian country, a few week:
ago. The place was filled with men ii
all stations of border life, who wen
trying to carve out a fortuue througl:
the high card. Hardly anyone HO'
ticed the entrance of a seedy, brok
en-down man, who took a seat at th<
faro table and began to play. He hac
the unmistakable look of a man wh<
had been pushed to the wall, and was
staking his last cent. An old soiubrert
shaded his eyes that were underlaic
with heavy, dark rings, and the gam
bier dropped iuto his seat as thougl
his body had been weighted with lead
He threw a silver dollar on th<
high card, slouched his hat down ovei
his eyes and became motionless. The
high card won, and the dealer paid the
bet, pushing the money over towarc
the player. He let it remain, and the
high card continued to win until a bij.
pile of money lay in a heap before the
forlorn-looking stranger. Still the
player never moved. The deal weni
steadily on, and still the high carc
won.
"Shake the fool up," swore the deal
er at la9t.
"A half breed Indian first shook the
player and then polled off his hat
The face of a dying man greeted hi:
close scrutiny. The dealer reachec
for the heap of money, and a dozen
Distols were drawn upon the instant.
"He's as good as dead," said "Fare
Dick," the dealer. "Money won't dc
him any good, and no one knows
him."
"I do," said "Cherokee Sam," at
Indian police officer. "His name is
Mike Donald, and they call him 'Unlucky
Mike, the Mover,'on the border
His wife and family are camped dowr
on the creek near here, and I hearc
today that they were literally starv
ing."
"In 10 minutes Donald was dead
Apoplexy had killed him. At once
a half-dozen willing bauds bundled the
winnings of the corpse into a handkerchief
and started to the wife's camp
to see the widow and turn the money
over to her. One or two stopped tc
buy some provisions for the distressed
ones. They found the forlorn little
camp without much trouble. "Unlucky
Mike's" wife was there ; but she
was dead. She had died of starvation
and exposure. The rough bordermen?
many of them professional gamblers
and killers, perhaps some of them
were express robbers?were horrorstricken.
They brought the husband
to the creek and buried the two together

Mike Donald was a noted border
jharacter. Six or eight years ago he
3rst appeared in the West with his wife,
rhey had a good team and a new
wagon. Whenever a new country was
jpened to settlement they were there,
eady to make the run to secure a
iome. Down in No Man's Laud, in
L888, Mike became a squatter sherill
aear Beaver City. The United States
iid not recognize that there was such
i country as No Man's Land, and the
settlers organized themselves into a
government of their own. They select}d
their sheriffs, judges and other
;ourt officers. Outlaws from all over
:he West flocked in, and soon No Man's
Land became a mundane paradise.

vv une iUiKe L'ouaiu was siicnu, ue
tilled "Whisky Dick," at Beer City,
jver a gume of cards, and from that
;o the time of his death he was unfortuuate.
His stock died aud he
ivas never able to keep a good team ol
liorses. Either they were stolen or
lisease carried them off. He left No
Man's Land and traveled up to Kansas.
An uneasy demou appeared to
possess him. He became known as
'Mike the Mover," because he was
ever in one place. He was one
f an army of people who had been
flitting about over the border in covered
wagons for years past.
When the old Oklahoma country
peued Mike secured a good claim on
the banks of the Canadian ; but he lost
his title because he was a "sooner"?
that is, he had gone into the country
before it was legally opened to settlement.
He next drifted down into
Greer county, a piece of land claimed
both by the United States and Texas.
There he tried to build up a home.
He became involved iu trouble with a
Mexican herder, and, while he killed
the cowboy, the latter's friends murJered
Donald's oldest boy.
Again the restless fever caught the
'mover." and he left Greer county for
the Cherokee Strip. His wife, though
she was a pretty woman when he first
iame West, had grown old and haggard.
Mike lost his dignified manner
af dressing and became as slouehy
looking and disreputable as his team
af skinny horses. Even the yellow
log that had followed his fortunes for
years deserted the man now and took
jp its residence with a roving baud of
Domanche Indians.
Deputy marshals and Indian police
lame to speak of the mover as "Unlucky
Mike." Everything he turned his hand
:o was unfortunate. When the Cherjkee
Strip opened he made the race,
tnd located a town lot at Perry. The
text day he learned that he had taken
i lot in the public square and that the
joverumeut owned it still. Discouraged
and disgusted he tried to find
some land claim that had not yet been
:aken. None such could be found. So
le hitched up his old skinny team
tnd trundled oft" down into the Cheyinne
country. A year or to ago, when
old Whirlwind's baud of Cheyennes
killed several settlers and were ou the
warpath, "Unlucky Mike" was near at
hand, and was arrested by the Federhl
officers, charged with selling the Ins
diaus "fire water" and inciting them
to a rebellion. It took him a month to
clear himself of these charges, and by
. that time his family had wandered
j away and were lost to hitn.
j Ou foot he trailed them over the In*
j diau country. Once he got track of
; the wagon it was no trouble to follow
, its meanderings. Any one who ever
. saw it would not soon forget it. The
. wheels were held together with wire
> rope wrapping; the bed was in splintI
ters, and the old canvass top was a
) mass of shapeless ribbons. By some
i of the settlers the outfit was called
, the "Flying Dutchman," in compari)
son to the old legend of the old Dutch
. ship of the ocean. It was considered
, a misfortune to run across "Unlucky
Mike" and his prairie schooner when
out on a business trip.
By the superstitious the man became
isolated from humanity. When
he found his family down upon the
banks of the Citnaron river, they were
almost starved to death. Together
they continued to wander over the
5 wild country like a rudderless ship at
; sea. Mike had three old crow-bait
H horses when he first went into his last
I camp, but it is said that he killed one
of the animals for food. On the day
. of his death he found a silver dollar on
the trail leading to a town near by.
5 With this money he determined to
tempt Dame Fortune for a last time.
3 It was this dollar that he risked at
[ "Japanese Tommie's" tent,
i His little daughter Nellie told the
committee of the finding of this dollar
) and her father's starting to town after
, something to eat. Once upon a time
3 Mike had been a gambler in a'small
way, and doubtless when he was pass,
ing the gambling house his desire for
5 play drew him in. The wife died soon
. after he left the little camp, and it is
probable that consumption had some,
thing to do with her death. "Unlucky
I Mike" and his unfortunate weather
. beaten prairie schooner will no longer
prove a nightmare to superstitious border
officials and Indians.
