But a moment before his death the I do not fear governor said: death; I have done my best; I am tired and am ready to go. Good-bye- . These were his last words. The Illness which culminated In the governors death was directly due to overwork and nervous strain, attendant upon the extra session of Nevadas legislature late last fall.

MANS TRUEST Wonderful ANIMAL FRIEND. Love and Loyalty of Dog to Its Master. Thera was a time when the dog had human friend, perhaps, but very early In the life of the world he and man came together, and the Jog had stuck ever since, says a writer in the New Haven Register. Man has abused no and neglected the dog. He has al lowed him to accumulate faster than he can be matched with friends, and hence the dog has deteriorated The friendless dog Is the neglected dog, and the neglected dog becomes, not from his own fault but from the fault of man, the dangerous dog. Henoe the laws to regulate dogs, which are as much In the Interest of the dog as In the Interest of humans. To the Ideal of one flag, one ooun try, one wife at a time," might ha added "one dog at a time." One dog Is enough for any man. It Is sufficient for ideal companionship. There U something lnspiringly pathetic in the comsadeship that sometimes springe up between the right sort of a man and the right sort of a dog. There le a fidelity that might shame many a man In the love and loyalty of a dog to his master. History, and literature are starred with its brightness and beauty. Pity the man who cant appro elate a dog, even If he doesnt happen to own one. Surely his soul lacke something more essential than adora tlon of music hes fit for worse than treason, stratagems and From LI bdoIIs. Hung Chang. bukes. LI Hung Chang, the famous China man, while visiting this country was known for the keenness of his wit and the fineness of his courtesies. One day when he was calling upon an American lady her little boy, who had been looking sharply at him, said: "Say, mister, how few hairs you And, my little man, said LI, pat ting him on the head, how feW manners you have!" Fatal Explanations. . Nothing is more fatal to friendly relations than complaints and re proaches and demands for explana tlos. People must be Judged In the wholeness of their conduct. A thousand subtle Influences, unexpected and unforeseen events, have their action and reaction on life. A thousand things occur that can neither be analyzed nor defined. Many a temporary alienation Is effectively overcome by allenoe. Re proaches, questionings, but widen the gulf. Leaving it alone, taking up other Interests and ldeaa, bridge It over.

CAMPAIGN PUBLICITY. Trial Trip of Largest Airship Ever Constructed Ends in a Most Frightful Disaster. Immense Area in Texas and Oklahoma Inundated, Much Sorrow and Suffering Resulting. Notwithstanding the great advancement made in the breeding of standard poultry thiougliout tne United States, the fainter is but a small per cent of th.e c!a-- of persons which lias taken up this woik. Why this is I cannot say, but records shoiv that the largest proportion of the prize winning birds exhibited in tho majority of poultry shows are raised In cities and The farmer, as a rule, convillages. tributes a very small number of the birds that are now being raised in this country. The growth of the industry is largely due to persons residing in the cities. Professional men, business men and wage earners seem to form the poultry associations that hold the exhibitions and it is the birds raised on the small lots that occupy the coops in the show room, with an occasional exhibitor from the farm.
