Swedback Block, Bemidji. Iv is an heroic figure presented by Sheriff Gyllard, the Wiscon- sin officer who failed in his at tempt to capture Dietz, the Thornapple Dam desperado. If reports are true, when the re- treat was ordered by him the sheriff complained that the pro- gress made by ;the posse, bur- dened with a wounded man, was too slow, and he pushed on ahead, alone. Then, later, the deputies found the traveling tco slow to keep pace with their fears of the terrible Dietz, and follow- ing the example set by their chief, pushed o1, leaving their wounded companion alone in a deserted log hut in the heart of the trackless woods. Now comes the report that Gyllard would lead another attack, this time at the head of a body of soldiers. What is neceded to capture Dietz is not soldiers, but a leader. An 04dity In Bullding. “If you want to see an oddity,” an undertaker said, “go to a cemetery and note how In the erection of old fash- foned tombs they lower into place the marble slabs. These marble slabs are not lowered by means of a derrick. They are lowered by hand. The work 18 so delicate, you see, and it Is so necessary not to. chip the edges of the stones, that only hand work answers. You wonder, I suppose, how the men avoid pinching or crushing their fingers as they lower a great slab of marble on to its marble base. Well, they ac- complish this by lowering the stone upon lumps of sugar arranged in or- derly lines, and then they gradually dissolve the sugar by squirting water over it. All the huge, flat stones of old fashioned tombs or vaults are lowered by hand on to lumps of sugar.” Safficiently Identified. She walked into a branch bank on upper Broadway and pushed a check through the paying teller’s window, “You will have to be identified,” said he. “I don’t know you, madam.” “You don’t,. eh?” said the woman, with fire in her eye. “Aren’t you the tather of the Smith family that has a flat in the Pileremin apartments?” “Yos “Well, I am the red headed janitress that your wife's always complaining about.

And she took it and went.—Everybody’s Magazine, Where Lincoln Put the Whetstone. A soldier at whose house when a boy Lincoln paused in his tramps In Illi- nols and who lent him a whetstone to sharpen his jackknlfe met him during the war in Washington. Lincoln re- membered the incident and spoke of the use of the whetstone, “Ya-a-s,” drawled out the old soldier, “whatever did you do with the whet: stone? I never could find it. We lowed mebbe you took it aloug willi you.” “No, no! I put It on top of the gatepost — that high ‘one.”” “Mebbe Yyoudid.

Her father taught her, together with her brother, Latin, Greek and Hebrew, though the slowness of her apprehen- slon tired out his patience. Italian, Spanish and German she taught herself without any assistance, and later In life she set herself to learn Portuguese, but for want of books she made no great progress. Lastly she taught her- self Arabic and made an Arabic df tlonary, containing varlqus meanings of words which elsewhere bad, smm‘ tmproperly translated.” L o A Tover of Plips. - For many years Lord Gardenstons was one of the characters of Bdin. burgh and as such recelved a plice among the famous Kay's portraits. He ‘was represented riding on an old horse, with a dog in frout and a boy dressed In & kilt behind. A detailed account of the picture states that Kay por- trayed him as, what he really was, a very timid horseman, mounted on an old hack, which he had sclected for.its want of spirit, preceded by his favorite dog Smash and followed by a highland boy, whose duty it was to take charge of the horse on arriving at parliament house, His eccentricity took the even stranger form of a strong affection for pigs. He became so much attached to one that he allowed it to share his bed, and when good feeding and rapid growth made it a rather cumbersome bedfellow it was still lodged In com- fortable quarters In the apartment During the daytige it followed him about like a dog. | ] 1e morning a farm- er had occasion to visit his lordship and, being shown into his bedrocm, stumbled upon some object. That ob- ject gave vent to an uncompromising grunt and squeal of complaint, and from the bed there proceeded a voice, “It Is Just-a bit sow, poor beast, and I lald my breeches on it to keep it warm all night."—Dundee Advertiser.

Bavages, we know, indulge in such luxuries as grubs and locusts, but for a civilized white man to finish up his dinner with a dish of raw ants seems too nasty to be credible. Yet in Mexico it 18 the custom—and a custom adopted by plenty of colonials and visitors. The To the service that we render. The short wait systemA of ant eaten is called the honey ant and Is perhaps as curious an insect as lives With a tiny head and legs, it has 8 huge body as big as a large pea, and this is yellow and swollen with exce} lent honey. In each nest there are 300 or 400 of these honcy ants, which are attended by thousands of others. The honey ants hang on to the roofs of the cells in the nest while the others feed them. They are, in fact, living store- houses of winter food. An observer says that if one of the honey ants falls from his perch a worker will go and pick him up and replace him. This feat is equivalent to a man walking up the face of a cliff earrying a large buf: falo or cart horse on his back. compounding--and any other advantageous features.

The Name Tuxedo, The Tuxedo coat got its name from the fashionable colony at Tuxedo, and the original name of the place was Duck Cedar. Lots of the old natives still call it Duck Cedar. George Tida- bech, one of the original settlers of the country, named the place. The lake was then much gmaller than it is now and was simply known as the fish pond. One day old Tidabech and his sons had gone there to shoot game. The ducks were very plentiful; numer- ous cedar trees were growing out of the rocks along the shore. “Let us give this place a name,” said the old man. “Let us call it Duck Cedar.” 8o Duck Cedar it was and continued to be for many years until the name was changed to Tuxedo. Hospitnlity, ‘While the reportorial representative of a great news bureau was in San Antonio, Tex., whence he had posted in such haste as to have little luggage, he met with a charming bit of southern hospitality. He had no cuffs, and a local reporter promptly drew off his own and sald to the guest within the clty gates: “Here, take mine. I've more at home.” Later It was learned that the donor of the cuffs worked for the San Antonlo Baily Express, and the superintendent of the news bureau upon hearing of the Incident lmmedi- ately wrote to Frank Grice, owner of the Express, in appreciation of an act peculiarly southern in its frank good fellowship. Here Is Mr. Grice's reply: “If you can send me the name of the member of the Express staff who of- fered his cuffs to your man he will be discharged for not offering his shirt as well.”—Chicago Record-Herald. Mark Twain on Advertising. Mark Twain in the midst of a pane gyric on advertising told a remarkable story. “There was a man,” he said, “back Iowa way who was so pleased with an advertisement in the local paper that he wrote the following testimonial let- ter to the editor: “Mr. Editor: Sir—After selling all I could, giving barrels away, stuffing my hogs till they would eat no more, I still had last fall about 200 tons of big, julcy, fine flayored apples left on my hands. 1 inserted in your valuable paper. an ad. that I was willing to send free a barrel of plcked frult, freight pald in advance by me, to any one who would apply, there belng, of course, no charge for the barrel. You will hardly credit it, but that little forty cent ad. cleared out my whole stock of apples, and I could have disposed of five times the quantity on the same terms.” Sharp, but Not Clever. A London scientist says that life in a metropolis makes young children sharp, but not clever; that it often destroys thefr chance of ever being clever, for It hastens the development of the brain unnatirally. It makes them superfi- clal, alert, but not observant; excitable, but without one spark ¢t enthusiasm. They are apt to grow blase, fickle, dis- contented.
