Along the Colambia City road there are yet five land owners who refused to give the extra five feet as required by the state for widening of the highway; but it is. thought they will be disre garded an dthe road completed this fall.

BLAZED TRAIL

SHEEP IN CATTLE COUNTRY

Exception te Their Presence Under the Ciroumstances Was Natural to the Beef Propducers.

Then out of a clear sky came the smell of sheep; all was o. k. at first, ’cause the cowmen figured there .was plenty of range for everybody, even sheep. - But soon enough the sheep ko_pt getting thicker and their range poorer, which started the crowding on the co'Wmé) best bits of country, Will James writes in Scribner’s. There were a few parleys without the voice of the “smoke wagon"” being heard—but sheep and sheep herders don’t have much respect for words or rules or country; so they went at it to start spoiling it all; and the cowmen went on to finishing what the sheepmen had started, with the result that mostly sheepmen and sheep were missing. The government couldn’t do much; they'd had to pinch about four states. The cattlemen won for & spell and all was hunky-dory again, outside of the damage sheep had done to the range. » The dust beds they'd made out of the good grassy “benches” were beginning to show signs of life, the air was pure as ever and cattle were getting fat. The cattlemen were all good folks once more and tending to their business in land that was theirs. They were the first to blaze the trail to it; they made that land a big beefproducing country, it was their home, and naturally they wouldn't allow sheep coming along and leaving nothing of it but the bad odor. 7]

CURED HIS “SWELLED HEAD”

Joseph Jefferson Has Told of Incident That Reduced the Bize of His Cranium Considerably. ; Successful ‘actors, like other suecessfiil peopleq, need to be on their guard against the “swelled head.” Joseph Jefferson, known and loved all over the country for his Rip Van Winkle, once told Mr. John Drew how he himself was cured of an incipient case of that malady. Mr. Drew retells the anecdote in his entertaining book of reminiscences : : o ; Mr.®Jefferson told me that when he had made.his big success with Rip Van Winkle he thought himself fairly important.: One night as he was going to his room in the Fifth Avenue hotel a stockily-built man with a grizzled beard got into the elevator with him. “Are you playing in town now, Mr. Jefferson?’ he asked. Mr. Jefferson as he replied in the affirmative rather pitied the man for his ignorance and his total lack of understandlng of what was going on in the world. What a simpleton ‘he must be who did not know that “Rip” was having an extraordinary run! When the man reached his floor and got out Mr. Jefferson asked the ele vator boy: “Who was that?”’ “Why,” said the boy, in his turn pitying Mr. Jefferson éor ignorance, “that’s General Grant!”—Youth’s Companion,

~ 'The Saga relates that the discoverer ‘and first settler on the Isle of Gottland was & man named Thjelvar, From the same source we learn that the ‘island was then in such am unstable ‘condition that it was submerged in the daytime, and rose to the surface at night, but Thjelvar exterminated with fire the trolls and ‘evil spirits that infested it, and never since that time have the waters broken over the Pearl of the Baltic. The great number of tourists’ who have rediscovered Gottland in recent years are of a different disposition, and what lures them thither and fascinates them into lengthening their stay are the traces of those weird powers and happenings of olden times. In later years, the early Middle ages, Gottland was indeed a power to be reckoned with, and it is the combination of ancient fairy lore and an interesting histerical past that makes the island go attractive and a favorite spot for tourists intent on exploring strange ground.—Boston ‘Transcript. Unwritten Page of History. “John Tyler was elected vice president on the same ticket on which Willlam Henry Harrison was elected president, but Harrison had not been in office much more than ‘a month when he was suddemly taken ill and died. Tyler was at his home in Virginia when the news of the death of Har rison reached him. He seemed dazed at its unexpectedness. “Yon are now president of the United States” said his informant. i e Tyler passed his hands across his forehead as though it required an effort te understand the reality of the responsibility which had been thrust upon him so suddenly. One story has it that he was so poor that he had to borrow the money to pay his expenses for the journey to Washington, At all events he hurried there by .the first train, took the oath of office and became the occupant of the White House, e Tl e

Africa Stands High.

- Geologists believe Africa is a ‘huge block of the earth’s crust, thrust above the ocean's level by some force from deep In the rocks, and held there almost since geologica: history began. Africa is a continent practically without harbors. The northern portion is generally low and has at different times been covered by the sea. But the southern peninsula, the true “dark | continent,” is a high plateau. ‘All around ité coasts the shores rise steeply out of the water. Rivers pour down the elopes in rapids, or, in the case of Zsmbezi, the scarp is sheer enough to have generated a waterfall.
