WANTED THEIR GOATS.
A Curious Adventure Among the Na
tives of Africa.
Mrs. Constance Larymore, author of
"A Resident's Wife In Nigeria," re
counts this curious adventure in Afri
ca: "The salilb, as from ineradicable
Indian habit I still commonly call my
huslmnd, had gone out at sunset after
deer, and during Ills absenco the entire
population of the village came stream
ing up the hill to the rest house, all
talking loudly and at once and evident
ly uuder the influence of strong excite
ment. I was by that time well accus
tomed to creating a sensation when
ever I appeared, no white woman hav
ing been seen previously, but these
people struck me as havlug more than
saluatlons in their minds and on their
clamoring tongues. I had beeu six
weeks in the country. My knowledge of
tlausa was eouflned to salutations and
a few simple words, so I summoned
our interpreter to help me to entertain
iny visitors.
'?The.v chattered. shouted ami gestic
ulated at Paul, who eventually explain
ed to me smilingly that they had never
seen a white woman before and were
anxious to offer me a personal wel
come. I nodded and smiled In high
gratification, thanked thein cordially
and when I had exhausted my small
stock of polite salutations told the in
terpreter to give them leave to go
home. This they did. somewhat re
luctantly, I thought, but after describ
ing the Interview with some amuse
mcut to the sahib 1 dismissed the mat
ter from my mind.
"Six weeks later we passed through
Lukpa again on our way back to Loko
Ja and found It deserted? not a man,
woman or child, not a goat, not a fowl
?all gone, obviously fled Into the bush.
I felt distinctly hurt at this churlish
behavior on the part of my late admir
ers and learned long afterward that on
our tlrst visit our precious interpreter
and others of our party had seized and
killed every goat and fowl In the vil
lage. The wretched owners had rush
ed up to the rest house to complain,
and all they got was "Thank you!'
"I am not ashamed to confess that I
cried when I made that discovery. The
lesson, however, went home to us both
aud drove us to work ceaselessly at
the Hausa language, knowing there
could be uo security for ourselves or
Justice for the people until we could be
Independent of dishonest Interpreta
tion."
AN INDIAN ATTACK.
One In Which Custer and a New York
Broker Were Mixed Up.
Charles Osboru, a New York broker,
and General Custer were Intimate
frleuds, and Osboru annually visited
the general at Ills camp on the plains.
During one of the Indian campaigns
he Invited Osborn and a party of
friends to Kansas and nfter giving
thein n buffalo hunt arranged a novel
experience In the way of an Indian
scare. As Osboru was lying in his tent
one night firing was heard at the out
posts and the rapid riding ot pickets.
"Boots and saddles!" wns the order in
the disturbed atmosphere of the ulght,
and Custer appeared to Osborn loaded
with rifle, two revolvers, a saber and
a scalping knife.
"Charles," he said In his quick, nerv
ous way, "you must defend yourself.
Sitting Bull and Flea In Your Boots,
with Wiggle Tall Jim and Scalp Lock
Skowheban, are on us in force. I did
uot want to alarm you before, but the
safety of my command is my first
duty. Things look serious. If we don't
meet again, God bless you!"
The broker fell on his knees. "Cus
ter," he cried, "only get me out of this!
I'll carry a million shares of Western
Union for you aud let you Into the firm
to get me home! Ouly save mo!"
But Custer was gone, and the camp
by shrewd arrangement burst into a
blaze, and shots, oaths and warwhoops
were Intermixed until suddenly a paint
ed object loomed 011 Osborn's sight
and something was flung into his face
?a human scalp. He dropped to the
ground and said the LortTs Prater
GackwarcTancT sideways until th6~n"olso
tiled awn j- niul tliero was exposed a
lighted supper table with this explana
tion on a transparency:
"Oaborn's Treat!"
A Strong Maid.
A cooking expert tells this story:
"Only the other night, dining with
?some friends of mine, I saw a maid
drop and break a superb platter that
contained two roast canvasbaclc ducks.
Our host did uot permit this accident
to ruffle him. While we waited for
some other course to be substituted fot
the last one he said: 'You must excuse
that maid. These accidents happen al
most dally with her. I think it is a
disease. She was, 1 believe, a dairy
maid originally, but she had to aban
don that occupation on account of her
Inability to handle the cows without
breaking their horns.' "

Yho Men Who Mnde tho Tramp
Over mountains and through snow,
through wet, slush and mud, freezing
at times and oppressed by heat at
others, William /ackson and R T.
Hay, two sturdy Scotchmen walked
every mile of tbo way from Seattle to
Chicago, just arriving within a -few
hours of the time limit, thereby win
ning a purso of Fifteen Hundred Dol
lars given by tho Seattle Athletic Club
for accomplishing this foit within the
prescribed tlin*.
Jackson and Hay left Seattle with
but Five Dollars in monev and were
obliged to earn their wav as they went
and leave no unpaid bills, and complet
ed the journey in ninety days.
Aii the Shoe* Looked After tho Jonv
n*7
An interesting fact in connection with
this walk was that but one pair of
shoes was worn by each of them on the
2,450 mile journey, and that they never
ripped or lost a Hitch during the entire
trip. The ?hoes worn in this contest
were made by the F. Mayer Boot and
Shoe Company, Milwaukee, wbo hare
established a great reputation through
out the country as manufacturers of the
highest type of quality shoes; in conse
quence of which, the business of this
house has had a phenomenal growth.
Nine thousand pairs per day is the pres
ent capacity of the Mayer factories.
As a matter of contrast, and to show
that there Is a marked difference in the
quality of shoes, while bay and Jackson
completed their 2,450 mile trip in a
single p<ir of shoes that were practic
ally intact at the end, J T. Sutherland,
another pedestrian, who had reached
Owosso. Mich , on a coast to coast walk,
had worn out thirty-one pairs of shoes
on his journey up to the time of hi* ar
rival in Owosso.
