Stoner, city engineer. The bids will be opened Monday evening, June 24. Bamboo Sap In India. In India the sap of the female bam- boo is used for medicinal purposes. “Tabasheer,” or “banslochan,” is sold in all Indian bazaars, as it has been known from the earliest times as a medicinal agent. It is also known in Borneo and wus an article of com- merce with early Arab traders of the east. Its propertles are sald to be strengthening, tonic and cooling. It has been analyzed and has been shown to consist almost entirely of silica, with traces of lime and potash. From its of bamboos the eastern mind has long assoclated it with miraculous powers. A Court Fool’s Joke. Scogan, the famous court jester of Edward IV., dearly loved a practical Joke. Once he borrowed money of the king and when the day for payment came was unable to make good his word. He feared the king’s anger and decided to appease him by a jok Felgning death, he had his friends car- ry his body Lefore Edward. The king fell a ready victim to the deception and in hls lamentations over the sup- posed dead fool said he freely forgave | the debt. Scogan lmmediately sprang to his feet, exclaiming, “The news is so revivifying that it has called me back to life.” Bill Nye and Maartens. In the spring of 1895 the distin- guished Dutch novelist known by the pen name of Maarten Maartens was elected an hounorary member of the Authors’ club of New York, says the Bookman. When the name Joost Ma- rilus M. Van der Poorten-Schwartz came to the attention of the member- ship committee there was a gasp of astonishment. Finally the late Bl Nye came to the rescue with the sug- gestlon that the first half of the name should be acted on at once, but that | the last half should be held over until the autumn, when the weather would be cool. His Choice. A witty member of the legal profes- slon wa: once a guest at a dinner re- markable for its meagerness. The din- ing room had been newly and splendid- ly furnished. Some of the guests con- gratulated the host on his taste in dec- oration, “For my part, I would rather see less gllding and more carving,” said the wit. Conscientious.

There were only three houses in the little hamlet on Cape Cod, but an oratoy from a nearby summer colony was minded to ypuse the clvic conscience by declaring that trade was the begin- ning of wisdom. “And,” said he, “I as- sure you that it Is not capital half so much as it is initiative that Is needed Ina place like this.” The three citlzens spat collectively and simultaneously, looking straight abead. “That kind o’ reminds me,” drawled one without shifting his gaze, “o’ Harve Upham an’ Dan Winsor, down the beach a ways. Harve had a shanty an’ Dan had a shanty, an’ they both had some plug tobacco. One day Harve went to Dan’s an’ bought 10 cents’ ‘wuth o' tobaceo, an’ the next day Dan went to Harve an’ bought 10 cents’ wuth o’ tobacco off him. They con- tinued these sales sev'ral days. They both got all the tobacco they wanted, an’ Harve fin'lly retired on the dime.” —Youth’s Companion. - The Great White Shark. The man eating fish par excellence is the great white shark. It is otherwise known by the name of man eater. Oc- casionally specimens are seen on both coasts of the United States, though its more customary habitat is in tropical waters. This frightful creature attains a length of nearly forty feet, and it is able to swallow a man whole. This fact is proved by an experiment which sallors are fond of making when such a shark is captured. The skull being preserved, they amuse themselves by crawling one after another through the distended jaws. It would be unsafe to do this, however, when the head has been freshly cut off, because under such conditlons the jaws will snap together flercely for some time afterward if anything is placed between them. The skull of a big shark, by the way, is al- ‘ways salable owing to the demand by museums and curlosity hunters. A young sea lion weighing a hundred pounds has been found in the stomach of a white shark. Protoplasm. All life on the earth appears only In connection with one substance—a wa- tery jelly—closely related chemically to egg albumen—and this substance is known as protoplasm. Every living thing is built of this one substance— Jellyfish, trees, whales, men—every- thing that lives. Biologists have suc- ceeded in doing some wonderful things. Five or six starflsh eggs have been fused into one, from which a monster starfish has been produced. Other starfish eggs have been separated into eight pleces, from which eight dwarf starfish have been brought forth. Crabs can be made to order, with the large claw on elther the right or the left side, and flatfish have been pro- duced with the color pattern on the underside.—New York American. Modest Contributors. A man was coming up from Chun- chen province with a sum of money which had been subscribed for the pay- ment of the public debt. He was met by robhers, who took the money and started away. He called after them ‘that the money was a subscription to the fund for the ralsing of the debt, whereupon they came back and handed bhim the money and begged his pardon for their mistake, and they gave him 10 yen extra as a contribution on their own part. He asked their names to publish in the papers, but they said they did not want to obtain notoriety In that way and declined, but sald they were glad to pay something toward helping the country.—Korean News. Why Shells Fly Straight. Many people wonder why the cone shaped projectiles in their fiight through the ailr do mnot wabble, but drive straight ahead. This Is easily explained. Round the bottom of the shell is a narrow band of copper which varles In width according to the size of the projectile. Being made of soft metal, this band is cut by the steel rifling of the gun on the shock of ex- plosion. This actlon causes the shell to revolve with lightning rapidity, with the result that it keeps steady during its flight through the air. — London Mall. 5 = Looks Easy, but Try It. Did you ever notice a jeweler wear- Ing his magnifylng glass in one eye? It logks easy, but try it. The inexperi- enced cltizén who tries to look at some- thing with such a glass is sure to close one eye. He can’t look at the magnified object with the other eye opened, as can the jeweler. This is only another evidence that one must learn all the detalls of one's trade. What is easy for the experienced jeweler is all but impossible for the novice—New York Globe.

A Curious Widow's Cap. A very curious cap forms the ‘“wid- ow's weeds” of the Australia aborigine in one part of the great island conti- nent. Near the northeast bend of the Murray river it 1s the custom for wid- ows to attend upon the tombs of their departed lords. Then, after shaving thelr heads, they cover them with pipe clay, kneaded into a paste. The head 1s first covered with a net to prevent the clay from sticking too tightly to the skin—a misfortune which is partly averted by the amount of grease with which every Australian native is anoint- ed. A layer of this clay several inches in thickness s plastered over the head and when dry forms a sort of skull- cap exactly fitting the head on which it was molded. As it weighs several pounds, the widow’s cap cannot be comfortable. Why Age Improves Wines. “Why do wines improve with age?” “Because they marry,” answered the expert. “Marry ?” “Yes. That is the term used in the trade.. ‘This sherry,” we say, ‘has mar- ried well’ or ‘that hock has married nastily.” We mean by a wine’s mar- rlage that Its different components— the alcohol, the sugar, the carbonic acid and so on—have blended together smoothly. In a new wine this blend- Ing, this marriage, has not yet takan place, and hence the harshness of new wines. Old wines are valued because the alcohol and sugar and acids and others have all married together into one fragrant compound.”—Exchange. Weather Vanes. The best weather vanes are made with the greatest nicety and precision, so that they balance perfectly and turn with the least possible wear. The vane is, of course, longer on one side of the socket tham on the’ other, or it would not turn with the wind, but its ‘weight is the same on both sides. I it is a narrow vane, for instance, the weight of the solid head is easily made equal to that of the longer, projecting, but thinner feather end, and all vanes, whatever they may be, are balanced as to welght and so adjusted that they turn easily and with the least possible friction. ¥ % Crazy People. “Crazy people mever act together,” declares the superintendent of a large asylum for the insane. “If one inmate attacks an attendant, as sometimes happens, the others would look upon it. as no affair of theirs and simply watch it. The momeunt we discover two or more inmates working together- we would know they were on the road to recovery.” . How He Caught Them. Archbishop Whately had a troe sense of grammar, says an old English- man who remembers him, and delight- ed to spring catch questions. One was: “What Is the -vocative of cat?” Generally the assured answer was “0O cat!” The archbishop would smile then and say, “No; puss, puss!” The Four of Them. Smith—Good morning, Jones. I hear you have a son and heir. Jones—Yes; our household now represents the United Kingdom. I am English, my wife’s Irish, the nurse is Scotch, and the baby wails.—Liverpool Post. SIX BODIES RECOVERED. Victims of Accident to the Minne- sota’s Launch. Norfolk, Va., June 19.—The body of Midshipman Walter Carl TUlrich of Milwaukee, one of those who went|. down on the ill fated launch of the battleship Minnesota in Hampton Roads a week ago, has been found. This makes five bodies recovered thus far, those in addition to Ulrich being Midshipmen Field, Stevenson and Hol- combe and Fireman Westphal. Later in the day the body of Sea- man Van Dorn was found in Hampton Roads. This makes six bodies in all recovered. FAMILY PARTY DROWNED. Mother, Three Children and Aunt Per. Ish at Monohan, Wash. Seattle, Wash., June 19.—Five per- sons, two sisters, a brother, mdther and aunt, perished in the waters of Lake Sammamish. The dead are: Antone Myer, thirteen years of age; Lizzie Myer and Ida Myer, sisters; Mrs. Myer, mother, and Mrs. John Herter, sister of Mrs. Myer. The four women lost their lives in & vain attempt to save the boy. BODIES BLOWN TO ATOMS Explosion in Powder Factory Kills Five Men, Williamsport, Pa, June 19.—Five men were killed in an explosion of the gelatine department of the Sinnema- honing Powder Manufacturing com- pany at Sinnemahoning, Pa. Only fragments of the bodies were found. As all the men in the building were killed it is-not possible to ascer- tain the cause of the explosion. Loses Leg in Attempt to Escape. Akron, O, June 19.—Wilford -Me- Millen, a prisoner, while being brought_ here from Chicago, leaped through a car window-en a swiftly moving train at Barberton in an attempt to escape. He fell under the wheels and his right, leg was cut off. McMillen is charged with stealing $400 worth of jewelry from Mrs. Anna Connor of this city. g TOIMPEACH ORCAHARD Defense Lays Foundation for [n- treduction of Evidence. STAR WITNESS IS RECALLED Prosecution Offers a Number of Let- ters Tending to Show Conspiracy Between Officials of Miners’ Union and Self-Confessed Murderer. Boise, Ida., June 19.—With Harry Orchard recalled to the stand, first to be formally prepared by the defense for impeachment and then to be re- directly examined, the state produced a number of letters written by the witness and one by the prisoner, Hay- wood, the purpose of which was to show that there had been a conspiracy to deceive Mrs. Orchard of Cripple Creek as to the whereabouts of Or- chard in the spring and summer of 1905. = The defense vigorously protested against the introduction of the matter on redirect examination, but the court ruled that if it was improper on re- direct he would permit the state to reopen its examination. Orchard swore that Haywood said in the spring of 1905 that Mrs, Or- chard was repeatedly writing to him as to Orchard’s whereabouts and Or- chard suggested that he write her a series of letters, date them at San Francisco and have,them delivered through agents of the Western Fed- eration of Miners. Two were thus written and the state, producing them, secured their admission: Then one was written dated at Nome, Alaska, and given to Marion Moore, then an organizer for the Western Federation of Miaers, to take to Alaska and mail. The state produced the letter and, cover objections, secured its admission. Next the state produced a letter written by Haywood himself to Mrs. Orchard showing that the prisoner had knowledge of the Alaskan story “and this was admitted in evidence. OrChard also testified that the re- plies of Mrs. Orchard were sent to him through Haywood. The impeaching questions pro- pounded by the defense all indicated a purpose by the defense to show that at various times Orchard threatened to kill Steunenberg because of a de- sire to be revenged for the loss of his interest in the Hercules mine. FIRM IN HER REFUSAL. Girl Rejects Murderous Suitor and He Fires Second Shot. Pocomoke City, Md,. June 19.—Miss Bessie Lambertson, daughter of John Lambertson, a well known farmer of Worcester eounty, was shot by Lodie Davis, a rejected suitor, and is in a precarious condition. Davis after- wards committed suicide, his body be- ing found ‘near. the place where he at- tacked Miss Lambertson, with a bullet hole in the breast.- The shooting oe- curred while the couple were cut dr! ing a short distance from the young lady’s home. She was found on the road by her mother, who heard her cries of distress. According to Miss Lambertson’s story Davis asked her to marry him and on her refusal he drew a pistol and shot her. He then demanded: ~ “Will you marry me now?” and on her reply “Ill die first” he fired again. One ball entered her head and the other penetrated her left lung. She pitched out of the bugey, breaking her collar bone by the fall. WIFE OF JURIST ARRESTED Head of Religious Sect Accused of Disturbing the Peace. Chicago, June 19.—A dispatch to the Tribune from Des Moines says: Mrys. Scott M. Ladd, wife of Justice Ladd of the Iowa supreme court, has been arrested here for disturbing the peace at-the pecullar religious serv- ices over which she presides. At the religious services which Mrs. Ladd has been conducting the devo- tees writhé on the floor like epileptics, leap into the air, chatter, scream, gnash their teeth or beat themselves. over the head. Staid religious circles of Des Moines have been profoundly shocked by the revelations concerning this pecullar regligion. 2 BLOODY FEUD IN KENTUCKY Two Men Killed and Two Severely Wounded. \ Lexington, Ky, June 19.—Thomas Wilson and Wiley Bowling were in- tantly killed and.Henry Caudill and illiam Log seriously wounded in a pitched battle at Lee Rose, Owsley county. Wilson Caudill and Henry Collins fought on one side and Bow- ling, Long and John Estep on the-| other and forty shots were fired while the battle raged. ~ Arguments in Murder Trial. Flandreau, S. D., June 19.—The final arguments are being made in the trial of Mrs. Emma Kaufmann, on trial here for the murder of Agnes Polreis, a domestic. State Attorney Orr made the opening argument summing up for the prosecution, 2 Aoki Rumor Will Not Down. Tokio, June 19.—There are strong indications that Ambassador Aoki will be recalled. There is an inclination to connect the rumor of his reported coming rocall with Premier Saionji’s audience with the mikado after the cabinet cnuncii. GOVERNMENT IS SUSTAINED French Chamber Approves Policy in Wine Growers’ Revolt. Paris, June 19.—The action of the government in determining to prose- cute the agitators in the south of France led to a lively debate in the chamber of deputies, but after a tu- multuous session.the cabinet secured an indirect vote of confidence by the large majority of 264. % Premier Clemenceau refused to agree to the immediate discussion of an interpellation on the subject of the government’s _plans and demanded that the motion be postponed until June 26.° In a speech which was fre- quently interrupted by noisy protests he declared that all means of concilia- tlon were now exhausted and that as chief of the government he was bound to enforce respect for the law. The committee at Argelliers had set itself up in place of the central government. If the chamber defeafed the postpone- ment of the Interpellation he would immediatély countermand the prose- cutions and the chamber would be responsible for the grave conse- quences. The government’s motion was finally adopted amid wild excitement by 412 to 168 votes. Advices received here from -Nar- bonne, department of the Aude, show that the situation there is worse than at any time since the wine growers’ movement first began. Dynamite has been discovered on the railroads, in some cases the tracks have been re- moved, the telegraph lines have been cut with the object of impeding the arrival of troops and the revolted vil- lagers have been pulling up the pave- ments and gollecting materials for barricades. The excitement at Narbonne and other places in the South has in- creased dangerously owing to the an- nouncement of the activity of the gov- ernment and the agitation of the-hot- heads. MAY _CANCEL LARGE DEBT Proposed to Relinquish Indemnity Claim Against China. ‘Washington, June 19.—President Roosevelt has just made the most stu- pendous gift to China that the United States or any other government has ever made to a forelgn nation. Through Secretary Root he has noti- fled Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, the Chinese minister, that, with the ap- proval of congress, the United States voluntarily will relinquish the differ- ence betweenthe total of expenses in- curred in the suppression of the Boxer revolt of 1900 and the amount which China agreed to pay to this country. The difference is fixed officially at“the enormous figure of $27,000,000. Beyond the mere generosity of the gift there are international aspects of the president’s action which will be promptly considered by foreign chan- cellories. In the first place the relin- quishment of this debt establishes a precedent for like action-on the part of Russia, Germany, France, Japan and Great Britain, each of which demand- ed indemnities far in excess of the expenses actually incurred. e et TO DISCUSS LAND QUESTION One Thousand Delegates Attend Con- vention at Denver. Denver, June 19.—Called" together for discussion of public land questions, with a view to formulating a policy and urging legislation in accordance therewith, nearly 1,000 citizens, repre- senting all the Transmissourl states, met in convention here.. From Wash- ington have come James R. Garfiel, secretary of the interior; Gifford Pin- chot, chief of the forestry department; F. H. Newell, head of the reclamation service, and R. A. Ballinger, commis- sioner of the general land office, rep- resenting President Roosevelt and pre- pared to give all possible information as to the policies of the administration regarding the control and regulation of the publie lands. The badge worn by the Colorado delegates was de- signed to furnish the keynote to the convention. It is inscribed as follows: “Public lands were intended for home builders. We oppose interfer- ence by government bureaus under autocratic rules and regulations.” PENDING COURT’S DECISION Gallagher's Appointment as Mayor of Frisco Only Temporary. San Francisco, June 19.—James L. Gallagher’s appointment as acting mayor by the board of supervisors is only a temporary one. He will serve only until the supreme court has de- cided whether or not it will admit Mayor Schmitz to bail, pending the hearing of his petition for a new trial. Should Schmitz be granted freedom on bail Gallagher will, of course, go out of office at once, for the mayor will then be able to perform the duties of chief executive of the city. May Own Unlimited Acreage. Lansing, Mich., June 19.—Governor Warner has signed the bill passed by the legislature removing the restric. tlon against mining companies in Michigan owning more than 50,000 acres of land. Under the new law they may acquire and_own unlimited acreage. The bill met with consider- able opposition on the ground that it might tend to build up a mining trust in the Upper Peninsula. Denies Reported Engagement. London, June 19.—The Earl of Mun- ster, when questioned regarding the report that he was engaged to Mrs. Potter Palmer, replied: “The report is absolutely untrue.” All.the after- noon papers here printed dispatches from Chicago reporting the engage- ment, with photographs and biog- raphles of the persons. AGGREGATE DAMAGE LARGE Forest Fires Raging in Northern Mich- igan and Ontarlo. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, June 19.— Although light rain fell during:the night forest fires aré still raging in parts of the Upper Peninsula and in Northern Ontario. The damage is large and reports are very pessimistic. The Dlaze at Strongs is under control. A fire en- gine was sent from this city. It is reported that at Webbwood three people burned to death, but this Is not confirmed. The country along the Algoma Central for miles is said to have been swept by flames. 2 Many mills are in danger and some lumbermen here lost all supplies. The fire is said to have been accidentally started by settlers who are clearing land and by careless rivermen. Montana age in Ruins. Harlowten, Mont., June 19.—Fire .which broke out in Marshall’s general store from a gasoline explosion has practically destroyed this village.

Columbus, O., June 19.—Big Four passenger train No. 19, one of the fastest trains on the New York Central lines, went thrcugh an open switch in the northern part of thé city and is now lying on its side along the track. Several passengers were serlously in- jured. Many of them are wondering how they escaped belng Instantly killed. 5 B The train was rushing along, ac- cording to one of the passengers, at fifty miles an hour when it struck the switch, throwing the passengers in every direction. The engine continned along the side of the track for, 200 yards and then turned over, as did the rest of the train. Engineer Willlam T. Smith remained at his post and was uningured. His fireman, Joseph Ma- haffey of Cleveland, jumped and was probably fatally injured. The train, which is a mate of the Twentieth Century lmited, carried through sleepers from New York. These sleepers were wrecked. The wreck did not catch fire. The track is twisted and broken up in a remarkable manner.- The first coach of the train is half buried where it tore into the ground. The heroism of Engineer Smith in sticking to his engine is being commented upon by all the passengers. He applied the emergency brakes when he saw that the wreck was inevitable, put on the air, sanded the track and stuck to his post, although the huge engine was groaning and apparently toppting over every .second it bumped along the track. = WANTED: Two live carpenters. 1fCall at Thome & Mayer’s new building.
