A singular case is reported from
Omaha of a man who has been doing the
calf act with a Jersey cow belonging to
the Saratoga dairy farm. The Bee tells
it thns "Not long after the cows had
been driven to the pastnre the herder
noticed Miller slip m among the bovmes
and drop npon his knees beside the
Jersey. Rushing to the spot, the herder
discovered that Miller was coming the
calf act and was sucking mrlk at an
alarming rate, while the cow seemed to
enjoy the process, turning her head
around and licking Miller as affection
ately as though he had belonged to the
cow family and was the monarch of the
herd. Cracking his whip, the herder
drove Miller away, but watched him
during the balance of the day. Twice
more did he try to suck other cows of
the herd, but each time he was driven
on, although he hung around until the
cows were pnt away for the night."
Donbtless Jersey milk is a wholesome
diet for the fellow, and for some reason
he wants it fresh. Surely this way it
contains no chalk.

Wednesday last there were quite a

Last week's Jocrnvl contained an
item of the death by drowning at
Seattle. Wash . of Vernie. onh son of
Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Backus. Monday of
last week. Particulars were received
here yesterday. Vernie and a playmate
went into lake Union for a swim. There
were other boys, all of them except
Vernie used to the cold waters. Quite
a wind was blowing, the waves running
higher than they at first appeared.
Vernie found that he was unequal to the
situation and was sinking when a com
panion. Singleton, swam to his rescue.
Singleton made a brave ami hard erTort
to save the boy. who, as all drowning
persons io, grabbed nis rescuer and
dragged him under water to or three
times, and Singleton was compelled to
save himself bv tearing awav
Vernie was 12 years old and a general

H. T ispoerry was on Grand Prairie
Thursday to help straighten out section
lines m accordance with government
mounds, having been called upon to tell
what he knew abont the northwest cor
ner of section 10. li-lw. He did the
first breaking on the corner in '72. had
the road opened along the section line
b J. E. North in '74. and found the
corner Thursday with a little bit of a
stake still there. Of course the govern
ment plat of the land, corresponding
with the original mounds, is the criterion
to go by. and it is dangerous business
to tamper with landmarks. We don't
know any particulars of the dispute in
this case, bnt we do know that conten
tions over boundary lines and corners
have not only been a prolific cause of
indivfdnal troubles, but also of state
and national conflicts. Preserve the
landmarks and thus prevent trouble.

R., this city, is an inveterate joker and
nearly always has the laugh with him,
but once m a long while it comes ditfer

language to the eiiect that war is neces
sary and is really a good thing for the
country about so often, as the storms
and rain purify the atmosphere, so war,
by killing on a number of people occa
sionally, purifies the atmosphere of
politics and business generally. "The
trouble is." interjected the stranger,
"that the worst ones return unkillcd"'
