Jim AltlBon, Wyatt Earp and Bat Mnatereoa recently quarreled over *8 game of cards In John Brennan’s sa­ loon on West Madison street. Their dispute was settled by the uso of re­ volver*. and yet without bloodshed. Twenty years ago a row among these three men would have been followed by a'Ust of dead and wounded longer than that recently telegraphed front Frankfort, Ky., where the former con­ gressman used his pistol. But civilis­ ation has had its influence upon even the men of tho west who made a rec­ ord as sure shots, and the lie was passed without bloodshed. The game was hearts—only for the drinks—and Allison had led s diamond. Earp played a heart on the trick, and was accused of making a misplay. "You lie!",exclaimed Allison. In a second two hands reached for revolvers. “Hold on, hoys!" shouted Master- son, “This ain't HaBs^ampo Creek. We’re not in * Prescott gambling house, If you want to shoot, I’ll show you how to do It. If you win, Earp, Allison will have to apologise. If you win, Jim, Earp must acknowledge he's n liar." „ , The revolvers were not drawn. When Bat Masterson says a thing It generally goes. He filled thirty of forty graves when he was marshall of Dodge City, Kan., and both Karp and Allison were his assistants at the time. They had fought all over the -Bonthwest -wHh- him. and- they. knew, that he was prepared to back up any assertion that he made. Accordingly, when Masterson led the way out of the saloon, Earp and Allison meekly followed htm, 'Tin going to let you shoot,’ re­ marked the former marshall, i s he turned into a shooting gallery. The figure of * man with a bull’s eye marked where his heart ought to have been was swinging lazily to find fro in the foreground. Imtatton ducks were flying through, the air, and tar­ gets of all kinds were presented to VlThe keeper of the place handed Alli­ son a rifle nnd a pistol.

They shot at every target in the gallery, and their marksmanship was as good as when their lives depended upon it. . Masterson wore a silk hat. Jim winked at Wyatt, r.nd tho two quietly stepped back, leaving Bat gazing at the: targets and watting for the next ■hot* ■ . “Bang!" went the two revolvers in unison, am] Masterson's hat flew off his head with two big bullet holes In It- . “You're acting like a tenderfoot, said Earp, “so we treated you like one. Now, i'll admit that I might bavo been mistaken in the game of cards." “Same here," chimed in AlUson, “but l guess you’re stuck for three bot­ tles of champagne." The champagne wag drunk, and the men continued their card game for an hour or so, and then took the west­ bound train for Denver. Masterson, Allison and Earp are about the only men left of tho crowd tliat helped cul­ tivate respect for the law In frontier Settlements. Accurate shots, quick and fearless, they always fought on tho side of law and order. Dodgo City, Durango, Tombstone, Tucson, Pres­ cott and Phoenix .were all brought In­ to subjection by them.—Chicago In­ ter-Ocean. Capt, Bosco’t Swimming Cate. t “I read a description the other day of tho retrieving cat owned by tt sportsman on Hetalre Rtilgo, ’ said a planter from the south coast, ‘ and, while the case was certainly remark­ able, It Is completely ccllpned, In my opinion, .by a family of swimming cats owned by Capt, mitrecr. of-Tanrom island. Capt. feostO is well-known In New Orleans, where he occasionally comes to do some trading, and is im­ mensely popular with tho crowd that goes down to the Tarpon Club for per: lodlcat outings, He Is the kingpin fisherman of BayAdams, and as quaint and original a character &3 you could find on the whole coast. , , . t '<Ills swimming cats, about which 1 started to tell you, belong to a feline tribe that has lived at the captains place from time out of mind. There are, perhaps, at. present a dozen all told, and they have apparently lost everv vestage of tho natural antipathy of their Sec ies for water. They will wade, utthcsltatnRly, through the shal­ lows on the beach, hunting for small fish and three or four will actually swim out to nearby luggers to get oys­ ters. Like all cats, they are very fond of that kind of food, and When the cap* tain's lugger come:: In front a visit to the beds several of them arc certain to jump o« tho landing and swim to whero it lies anchor, U Is very strange to cee them c.omo scrambling on board, mowing and shaking them- selves and seomiigiy as indifferent to the wettitig as cotter puppies. “flow t b d dovt ioped such an extra- ordinary trait.

"A log jam Is one of tho moBt for­ midable problems wc have to encoun­ ter In our line of business," said a Mis­ sissippi lumberman, "Hour they begin Is difficult to explain: A few dozen logs will become wedged, for an Instant In a narrow part of a stream and In less time than It takes me to tell It hundreds of others will come, swooping town and pack themselves In an intri­ cate, close knit span’, reaching from bank to bank, and almost a s s^lid as u rock. The force they exert Is some­ thing marvelous. During one jnm In my section I saw a lot of logs plunge under the edge of the blockade, and a few seconds later they pushed tbclr way up through the very middle of the pack, tossing timbers as big around as a man’s waist Into the air like so many toothpicks. The noise they made as they drove through the mass was simply deafening. It sound­ ed as if the solid earth was being tom up py its foundatious. \Vh 9 n tlie logs passed under the jam, they were evi­ dently caught In such a way ns to still further obstruct the Imprisoned stream and were hurled upward with ail the Irresistible cuergy of millions of gallons of nisbiug water. “The breaking of a jam Is a very ticklish operation and seems to be largely a matter of Instinct with old rtverinen. The lines ahd angles of jtra ln In such a blockade are so com­ plicated that 'thV best engineer ~t<rths~ wocld Is apt to go wrong In indicating th« proper point of attack. A veteran lumberman, on the contrary, will often take a long look a t the mass and then point out the *koy log.’ The key log Is the timber on which the strain cen­ ters, and when it Is blown out or pried out, the pack. In almost every Instance, Will break up of Itself. 1 bad an oM fellow In my employ a few years ngo who could locate a key log nine tlmss out of ted.

The girl wandered from her happy home to se­ cure employment amaug the wealthy families of the city, and whoa she made known the fact that she was willing to work many persons sought her and Implored her to engage with them In domestic pursuits. The girl was overwhelmed with offers, but final­ ly made a selection and settled In a family that valued her service* very highly. ‘The girl was happy nntll on* day her employer to tt a neighbor, a very dear friend, and told her of her good fortune in finding the country girl. And this neighbor met another very dear friend, and told her of her other friend’s good luck, sad thus did It become generally known tbat there was a good "hired girl" in the neigh­ borhood. And from th st time on the mistress and the girl were unhappy until on* day the very dear friend gave the girl f L&0 more a week than she was earn­ ing In her first place, and In this man­ ner did th* girl become happy again, while her mistress and th* very dear friend ceased to be oa speaking terms.
