MILKING A MOOSE.
A PENOBSCOT GUIDE’S STORY Of:
ANOTHER TRUTHFUL GUIDE,
Dow “Dairyman Aiumnve^’* off niiKmolieiul,
Managed to Kecnro SoUif.tliiug for Ilia
Sportsmen to Drink Besides the Oold,
Murky Water of tho Duke.
“Hero's h pretty mess! Tho milk is all
; gone.”
The speaker was ono of a party of four
; New York sportsmen who, with an equal
I number of guides, had been cruising
about on the west branch of the Penob
I scot, but were now camping on the
j shores of Chamberlain lake, preparatory
to returning to North East Carry. They
had been out longer than they liad
planned, and some of the supplies had
become exhausted.
Then turning to the guides, who were
lying at full length on the ground quiet
ly enjoying the young blood's discom
fiture, he asks, “Isn’t there a farmhouse
or hotel near where we could buy some?”
"Depends on what you call near." re
plied a woodsman. “If you don’t reckon
forty miles far, then we are near a house,
bnt that’s about tho distance—maybe a
trifle more. You want milk powerful
bad. don’t you? Well, you fill up on wa
ter tonight and maybe in the morning 1
can accommodate you, though, mind you.
I don’t promise!"
“You’ll have to get a move on you,’
said oue of the other guides, “if you are
going to try to make the Carry ’tween
this and tomorrow"—well knowing that
the journey in that time was impossible
— “for blast me. Annance, if 1 know
where you’re going to find the color of
milk nearer than that.”
Annance made no response, but puffed
silently at his favorite pipe. Ho had an
idea, though, that he could get some
milk, but did not mean to tell how.
That night, unnoticed, he left the
camp about sunset, walked slowly
through the woods for about a mile, and
again came out on the shore of the lake
at a point where a small stream formed
an outlet.
This was near the place where he had
seen the cow moose, and here he took up
his position beside a trail leading to the
water’s edge, and along which he could
see, if his knowledge of woodcraft did
not deceive him, that the moose was in
the habit of passing.
iu tins ijo was curreci, tor 1110 guide
had not been there more than an hour
when lie heard the sound of some animal
approaching, and peering cautiously
through the bushes he saw a cow moose
making for the pool.
The animal sniffed the air a few times
as she passed within a dozen paces of the
hunter, but otherwise she did not show
signs of alarm. She was soon in the
water ridding herself of the flies and
quenching her thirst.
While the moose was disporting her
self Annance left his position behind the
bush and walked a few steps toward i
her. and whenever she turned he would
stand perfectly motionless.
By repeating this operation several
times, he managed to reach the edge of
the lake without alarming the moose.
As soon as the animal showed any signs
of leaving the water, the guide retreated
a few steps. Once or twice did the
moose raise her head and look at him.
oniy. however, to resume her clumsy
frolics.
Presently the mooso made toward the
shore, and Annance concealed himself
behind the brush again. At the edge of
the lake the animal turned to take a
last look and shake the spray from her
nose. Then she advanced slowly up th
sloping bank. When opposite the guide
she sniffed something, stopped and looked
around.
That was the guide’s chance, and he
Knew it.
The critical moment had arrived, and
with one quick but silent movement he
was by the animal's side. She did not
move except to turn her head and look
at him. Annance kept near her hind
quarters, well knowing that if he got in
front of the moose he would not stand
much chance should she become ugly.
Cautiously bending forward the hunter
stroked her sides and allowed her to turn
and smell of him. After a few seconds,
seeing the moose did not appear fright
ened. Annance. with little more diffi
culty than is experienced with many do
mestic animals, proceeded to fill a small
pail he had brought along with rich, yel
low milk.
Returning to camp, he produced the
milk when breakfast was ready in the
morning, having kept the pail in the
water over night, much to the astonish
ment of the guides and sportsmen.
People who visit Moosehead often hear
Charles Annance spoken of as the
“dairyman." and the foregoing story is
what gives him the nickname.—Lewis
ton Journrl.
Almost Like Jouali.
'Tve had some experience myself,”
said an old sailor, “but two years ago 1
came the nearest taking after Jonah that
a man ever did. We had made a strike
all right and the whale went down, not
very far, but when he came up he had
his mouth open, and somehow or other
he came up with one jaw on the port
and the other on the lee side of our boat. |
Surprised? Well, that whale looked very
much as if he was ready to receive com
pany. but 1 wasn’t invited, so 1 made a
streak for another boat.”—San Francisco
Examiner.
Too Literal.
Mrs. Fangle—Save you secured a
lodger for your second floor yet. Mr
Goslin?
Goslin (horrified)—I haven’t been look
ing for a lodger, madam.
Mrs. Fangle—Why. I’m certain my
husband told me you had rooms to let
in your upper story. —Exchange.

The reason why there is less specula
tion in mining stocks in Wall street than
there was formerly is not because there
is less gold and silver mined west of the
Mississippi, but because there is less un
employed cash east of that river.—New j

A Straiigw Accident.
"The strangest accident that ever fell
within uiy observation." said Harold
Chapman to u friend in the Lindell. "oc
curred at my home in Medicine Lodge.
Kan One day in May. IH80. I was
driven into the house by a thunder
shower. The rain moderated in a few
minutes, iiowever, and I took a chair
and sat out on the porch My youngest
boy was playing with a tin cup, catch
ing water from the rain pipe and pour
ing it along a rut in the floor. The watej
ran along this rut out onto the cistern
platform. While ho was stooping to till
the cup from the rain pipe a flash of
lightning came, seemingly attracted by
the iron cistern pump. The current
leaped from the pump to the current of
water that ran along the porch and
flashed along its course to the end.
"As providence, accident,till luck or
something else would have it our Thomas
cat had come out from the kitchen and
was standing close to tho wet gutter
made by pouring of the water. The cat
received the full benefit of tho flash, and
lay scorched and dead in an instant.
Now 1 saw that flash distinctly, and
saw it travel from the iron pump along
that gutter to the cat. If my boy had
been there the result would have been
the same. If ho had not. why I suppose
it would have been attracted toward one
of us and serious results might have fol
lowed. I slightly imagine that I owe
my life to that cat’s ill fate. I am much
obliged to the cat.”—St. Louis Globe
Democrat.
The Endowment of Daughters.
The propriety of endowing daughters
appears to bo now seriously discussed in
different parts of the country. This
arises partly out of a growing sense of
justice, which, the philosophers say, is
the last sentiment to be developed in the
case of women, and partly out of the
commercial exigencies which in the last
twenty years have left stranded so many
women with no means of livelihood.
The endowment of daughters would ac
complish several ends. It would enable
them to marry tho men of their choice,
it would support them if they do not
marry, and in case of commercial disas
ter would furnish at least temporary
provision for the family The matter
has progressed until the methods of en
dowments in different countries are un
der advisement.
According to Sir Henry Maine it was
the passing of the Roman dowry into
France after the conquest of Gaul that
has made of France the richest and most
prosperous of nations. It is unlikely,
however, desirable as it might be, that
the frugality and self denial the hum
blest Frenchman practices to lay aside
his daughter’s dowry will appeal to a
nation accustomed to easy living and a„
impatient forswift resnltsas this.—Hew
York Evening Sun.
A Japanese Editor.
Editors may find some consolation in
the fact that they have inspired feelings
Of envy in the breasts of a young Japa
nese boy. A recent issue of an East In
dian paper contained the following note:
“A schoolboy in Loerabaya was asked
to describe an editor of a paper. He did
so in this way ‘An editor is the luckiest
man in the world. He can go to a cir
cus every afternoon and every evening
without paying a cent He can go also
to the court houses, tho places of execu
tion and tho races.
“He has free tickets to all theaters, re
ceives presents at his office, and gets his
ears boxed too. He goes also to Prigen,
Malang or Lawang (places of amuse
ment). He does not do this often, how
ever. In one paper he can deny every
thing that was said in the previous one,
and he does so, as a rule. When other
people are already in bed, the editor is
still up. He stays up late to see what
happens. When 1 grow big I shall be
come an editor. Then 1 can stay up
too."
A Sermon Kxcliange.
The latest enterprise which we hear
announced in the young and enterpris
ing west is the “Sermon exchange,” of
Chicago. According to popular belief
the practice of clergymen has been to
write sermons until they had filled a
barrel. Then the barrel would be turned
upside down and the sermons all
preached over again. Where a minister
remained in a church n great many years
the congregation would after awhile be
gin to know when the barrel was turned.
Some sermons were looked forward to
with much interest and others with more
or less dismay. The Sermon exchange
is to do away with all of this. It is no
longer necessary to preach a sermon over
a second time. The preacher can take
an old sermon and tie twenty-five cents
to it. This he sends to the exchange and
receives one written by some one else
by return mail, or if he has no sermon to
send he can get one for fifty cents.—Bal
timore Sun.

There was a time when many of the
Shinnecocks shared in the occupations of
the white people and acquitted them
selves with great credit. I allude to the
whaling period in Southampton history,
The Shinnecock at sea. whether pure
blood or half breed, made an exact sailor.
The discipline of the forecastle was good
for him, at least so long as he was afloat.
Many of them got to be mates, and one
became a captain. This distinguished
sailor man was not a pure bred Indian,
but was part negro, and probably had a
small though potential quantity of white
blood. This was Captain Lee. and any
one down toward Southampton or Sag
Harbor can tell of his giant stature and
immense strength. This Captain Lee
was the son of a still more famous man.
