Some strait-laced men have gone crooked. The man who boasts of his ignor- ance has reached the limit. It’s up to a man to sit down and contemplate a standing offer. No man is as dangerous as he thinks some woman thinks he is. If a man sleeps in church he doesn’t necessarily dream of heaven. When the star boarder marries the landlady he becomes a fixed star. Perhaps faint heart ne’er won fair lady because it is partial brun- ettes. One way to put money in circula- tion is to take itto the racetrack. " OUTBREAK IN A PRISON.

BODIES ARE TERRIBLY TORN Victims Were Crowded Into Little Engineroom Without Possiblility of Escape—Decks Blown Up and Ves- sel Otherwige Damaged. New York, Aug. 24—Six men who were testing the boiler of a donkey engine in the hold of the coal barge Paterson were instantly killed by the explosion of the boller. A seventh man was seriously Injured. The barge, which belongs to the Erie Rail- road company, was hauled out on a rallway at Teltjen & Lang’s docks in Hoboken to be repaired after having been in service between Boston and New York. A general overhauling was under way when Captain Hop- kins, his engineer and deckhand and the four machinists employed by Tiet- Jen & Lang went into the engineroom to test the boiler. This room was only twelve feet square. Engineer Gibons started a fire in the boiler and it had been burning only a short time when the boiler exploded. It is supposed that the water in the boller was low. The bodies of the men, who were crowded into the little engineroom without a possibility of escape, were terribly torn and one man’s head was blown off. The decks of the barge were blown up and the vessel was oth- erwise damaged. Mrs. Hopkins, the eaptain’s wife, was at the forward end of the barge and escaped. Her four- teen-year-old son was nearly blown overboard, but escaped with severe brulses. AIDED BY CHANGE OF WIND Firemen Finally Overcome a Serlous Blaze at Cincinnatl. Cincinnati, Aug. 24.—A shift of the wind aided the firemen In thelr efforts to overcome the fire that started in the Eagle White Lead company’s plant about 11 p. m. and five hours aftet the flames were discovered the fire was under control, after wiping out prop- erty valued at $750,000, driving hun- dreds of tenement dwellers from their homes and laying waste to several acres of ground. Nearly everything on the irregular block bounded by Broadway, East Court, Hunt street and the Norfolk and Western tracks was destroyed. Numerous crowded tenements fringed the fire section and families hurried to places of safety, many carrying all thelr valuables with them. Trolley and telephone lnes had to be cut by the firemen, crippling both services and adding to the loss by the fire itself. Only one man was injured and his injuries were not serious. For a time the big plant of the Krehbiel Printing e A3, ek ke aa forts of the firemen availed to save it. PASSENGERS IN A PANIC. Engine on Lake Steamer Is Torn to Pleces. Muskegon, Mich., Aug. 24.—An ec- centric rod in the engine of the steam- er Clty of Muskegon broke when the steamer was six miles out of port, bound for Chicago, tearing the engine to pleces and causing a small panic for a few minutes among the seventy passengers. The wreck of the engine was accompanied by a tremendous tearing and pounding noise and sent many of the passengers into hysterios. After the extent of the damage was ascertained distress signals were sent up and the steamer Georgla respond- ed, taking off the seventy passengers and continuing to Chicago with them. The City of Muskegon was towed back to port for repairs. BOY BURNED TO DEATH. Mother and Four Other Children Res- cued by Firemen. La Crosse, Wis., Aug. 24.—One life was lost and five other persons had narrow escapes in the destruction by fire bf the home of Mrs. Mary Kers- ters. With a great deal of difficulty Mrs. Kersters and four of her chil- dren were teken out of the burning structure, but the oldest boy, Fred, aged cleven, could not be reached by the firemen and, refusing to jump, was burned to death ‘before the eyes of his mother and a large crowd of spectator 8core of Horses Burned, Grand Forks, N. D, Aug. 24.—Fire on the farm of Michael Leonard, who lives near McCumber, caused the death of twenty-one horses and the de- struction of a barn, many sets of har- ness, oats and hay.

Four Hundred Packinghouse Drivers Out at New York. New York, Aug. 24.—Deliveries of xeat from the local packinghouses has been completed halted by the strike of 400 wagon drivers. Not a delivery wagon of the wholesale butchers was moved during the early morning hours. The strikers sald that only meat from Chicago refrigerator trains was being delivered and that the.drivers who han- dle that may be called out on strike later. - With a stoppage of deliverles from the meat trains the city would be quickly affected by a meat famine. Police reserves were stationed in the packinghouse district on the West Side of the city, but no disorders were reported. Inside employes of the packing: houses were at work, while the heads of the affected plants were busy pre- paring to break the strike, which was called without warning by the drivers. The agreement between the teamsters and the companies expired Aug. 14 and since that time representatives of both sides have been in conference endeavoring to adjust their differen- ces. The teamsters declined to ac- cept the clause in the contract calling for the arbitration of all mooted ques- tions. TWO DEAD, THREE WOUNDED Free for All Fight Occurs at Barbour ville, Ky.

There s no clue to the murderers. RAISULI IS VICTORIOUS. Oompletely Defeats Large Force of Sultan’s Troops. ‘Washington, Aug. 24.—Information has reached the state department by cable to the effect that the bandit Ralsull has completely defeated the large force sent against him by the sultan of Morocco In the effort to se- cure the release of Cald MacLean. According to the report the impor- tant Moorish city of Aloazar, which is distant only two days by the caravan route from the city of Tangler, is in great danger.

A curious feature about the evolus tlon In methods of hunting was the hesitation with which gunpowder was taken up by the great nobles. Notonly did it take quite a century to famillar- ize hunters with it, but the evidence that has come down to us shows that the humble classes were the first to use it for shooting game. Maximilian, ardent sportsman that he was, tells us himself that he could shoot farther and with. greater accuracy with his crossbow than his keeper could with the fire tube. To prove this he tells us thé well known story of a certain chamols standing at 20 fathoms, which, after being pronounced as too far off by his henchman, who was arm- ed with one of the firstsporting firearms mentioned In print, comes tumbling down, plerced at the first attempt by the emperor’s bolt. From other sources we learn of strlct measures being adopted to prevent poachers and “wood loafers” using firearms, and this at a period when princes still used the cumbrous crossbow and spear. It was only in the last quarter of the six- teenth century that firearms had oust- ed other weapons for certain forms of the chase, the deer battue belng among the latter.—Gentleman's Magazine. Dangerous Odors. Some smells are dangerous. A sin- gle sniff of highly concentrated prus- sle acid will kill a man as quickly as a shot through the heart. The odor of a bad egg is due to the presence of sulphureted hydrogen, and the ob- jectionable perfumes of sewers and bone factories are attributable’ chiefly to the same gas. Chemical laborato- ties are famous for bad smells. Ber- zellus, who discovered the element called “selenium,” once tried the ex- periment of permitting a bubble of pure hydrogen selenide gas to enter his nostril. For days afterward he was not able to smell strong ammonia, the olfactory nerves being temporarily paralyzed. Selenium gas has the odor of putrid horseradish. Tellurium is even worse. There is a story of a phy- slelan whose patient, a lady, refused to take an absolutely necessary rest because she was so fond of being al- ways in society. He gave her a pill containing a small quantity of tellu- rlum, and her breath was affected by It to such an extent that she was not able to appear in public for a month. She never guessed what the trouble was. The volatilized essential oll of roses is supposed to cause “rose cold.” This peculiar complaint is so far nervous in its character that pa- per roses sometimes excite it. Why Elephants Fear Mice. It seems incredible that so small and harmless an animal as a mouse is able to frighten an elephant almost out of his senses. One little mouse in the hay on which they are feeding will stampede an entire herd. In their na- tive land there are little animals, known as chacanas, which feed on a small, sour berry of which elephants are very fond. They live in settle- ments, something after the manner of prairie dogs, under the berry bushes. When feeding, the elephants trample the little towns, and the chacanas, in LTI £etpil, e nn UIC tuto—l e | elephants’ ‘trunks. Their long, sharp claws catch in the flesh, and they can- not be ejected. The more violently the monster blows through its coiled trunk the more firmly the hooked claws of the little animal become imbedded in the flesh. Inflammation and death are the result. In captivity the elephants think they are in danger of the deadly chacanas when they see a mouse. Early Baseball Teams. Baseball teams existed as early as 1845, but the first league was formed In 1857, when the National Association of Baseball: Players was organized. This, as the title implies, was an or- ganization of players—in fact, of ama- teur players. They did not remain true amateurs for long, however, and’in 1871 baseball was placed squarely on a professional basls, when there came Into existence the National Assoclation of Professional Baseball Players, "It will be noted that the players still governed the sport, and they continued to do-so until 1876. It was in this period that there grew up the great abuses which menaced the very life of baseball—namely, gambling and the buying and selling of games, In 1876 the players were deposed from the government of professional baseball, and they have never since controlled the game.—Henry Beach Needham In Buccess Magazine. Almost Prehistorlc. Her volce-in the midsummer gloam- ing had a plaintive sound. “I haven’t anything new to sing to you tonight, Cyril,” she faltered. “Then sing me one of the old songs, love,” said the man tenderly. } High, thin. and a little cracked, her soprano rose In quaint, sweet melody of “Over the Garden Wall.” When the song was ended her lover laughed and sald: “That was Indeed an old one, Clara.” Two hard lines formed about the cor- ners of her mouth.

It Takes Cash. “Why are there no lynchings in' this clty?’ sald a New York policeman. “Because the officers always get there ahead of a rope, There are several patrolmen on each block, and It takes some time to hunt up a hardware store and get a rope. The man who goes aft- er it usually loges his enthusiasm when he finds that even a clothesline means cash on dellvery.” Not His Fault. He—Do you think Styles and his wife live happily? She—I'm sure of It. “Well, she always seems to look un- comfortable when she’s with him.” “That’s not her husband makes her look that way. It's her boots.” When to Shoot a Critic. At a supper party at the Garrick club In London some years ago a the- atrical manager wound up a humorous speech by declaring his conviction that it would be to the advantage of the drama If a muster were made of all the theatrieal crities and they were shot offhand. Joseph Knight, the crit- lc, called upon to reply to this playful stricture, rose and in his richest tones spoke as follows: “Gentlemen, I have not the faintest objection, understand me, to the course proposed by Mr. X. provided that in mercy we are shot before being invit- ed to witness such entertalnments as our dear” friend has recently produced at his theater.” e The Federal Convention. There were sixty-two wcmbers of the conventlon that framed the con- stitution of the United States. Of these 'the men who wielded the great- est influence were Washington, Frank- lin, Hamilton and Madison. Wash- ington’s devoted patriotism, Franklin’s unfalling common sense, Hamilton’s passion for nationality and Madison's unconquerable democracy, fused at last to form what Mr. Gladstone called “the greatest plece of work that ever sprang from the human mind.” B U (Great Northern Railway Attend the Minnesota ; S tate Fair SEPT._2-7, 1907 at Hamline between St. Paul and Minneapolis.
