WILL USE RADIUM RAYS AS A CURE May Not Work as Well Here as in European Climate — Theoretically Patient Takes Air Saturated With Rays, Which Travel to All Parts of the Body by Way of the Blood Vessels. Baltimore.—The Johns Hopkins hospital has purchased a quantity of radium in Europe and within a few weeks will establish a new department for the treatment of diseases by means of the inhalation of radium devices. So far as known, this will be the first use of radium in this way in the United States. Since the discovery of the mineral about fifteen years ago by Professor and Mime, Curie of France it has been used in many surgical cases in Europe, and until a few years ago there confined to such cases and to giving what are called radium baths. Especially noteworthy were its effects in the treatment of cancer, giving hope that a new and permanent means of fighting the disease had been found. The use of radium in purely medical cases is something comparatively new. It was discovered that the emanations from radium were enormously beneficial in the treatment of chronic rheumatism, facial paralysis, neurologia and diseases of the joints. Persons who had suffered from these alimentes for years found their one relief to come from the strange element, and gradually a new treatment has developed from that discovery. By this method the emanations from radium are collected and held in solution in the air. A compartment called an "emanatorium" is the cabinet in which patients of the radium treat MME. CURIE. ment must be placed to breathe in the confined air laden with radium emanations. An hour or more at a time must be spent in the emanatorium, and the treatment continues for three weeks. The theory is that the radium rays, which do not perish like light rays, but are held in solution in the air, are breathed into the lungs. There they get into the blood and thus are carried to every organ of the body. This is what would happen if radium emanations are an actual material substance which can saturate the atmosphere, as seems to be the case. At all events this treatment has been practiced in Europe for two or three years and has to its credit, it is said, a number of cures. The substance (radium) is yet too much of a mystery for scientists to bank on what it will do or can request here what it apparently been doing in Europe. The John Hopkins warns people not to put too great confidence in the new method until it has had a thorough trial here. Climatic conditions differing from those of Europe may affect the manifestations of radium here. One highly important feature in connection with the John Hopkins undertaking is that the radium treatment will not be high priced. Rich and poor alike will have entrance to the new department. This seems paradoxical when it is remembered that a very small amount of radium is worth a fortune. One American physician has sent abroad for a small supply of it and is said to be paying $2,500 for what is contained in a very small phial. But this high price is somewhat offset by the fact that radium is almost imperishable. Giving it a reduced quantity reduces its quality, by such an infinitive that it is claimed the quantity which John Hopkins brings over will be doing service for 2,000 years. Another matter which may shortly be investigated in connection with radium is the theory that its presence in certain mineral waters is the cause of their curative qualities. It is said that the government authorities will appoint experts to make an investigation of the springs at Hot Springs, Ark, to ascertain how much, if any, radium is in the water. THE APPEAL. "SIX MONTHS COURTSHIP." Judge's Sentence For Love at First Sight Pair. Chicago—Love at first sight and all that sort of thing is romantic, but sometimes the vision is clouded, according to judge Newcomer of the municipal court. That is why he sentenced a young couple to six months of courtship. The judge looked benignly down from the bench. Before him were Loretta Brown of Kankakee and John Carr of Chicago, both under age. It had been a case of a glance, a smile and "Let's get married." The judge wanted to know all about it. "Loretta," he said, "would you like to marry Mr. Carr?" "Yes," she murmured. "Hasty marriages," he said, "almost always result in hasty divorces. I don't like them. So I sentence you to six months' courtship. The proposed new marriage laws advocate such a plan, and I think it a grand idea." The judge then requested both to report to him once a week. Oddulate relatives had caused them to be brought to court. APPENDIX ON WRONG SIDE. Also His Heart and Other Organs. Outside of That. Philadelphia.—Surgons at the Jefferson hospital have discovered a man whose vitals are all in the wrong place. According to statements given out, Charles Henry, derelict, applied to the institutions for treatment, and the physician discharged his appendix, on the left side of his body and heart and other organs on the right side. Dr. Steele says that the malformations in the man's thoracic cavity are due entirely to congenital abnormalities caused by the fact that he was the child of blood relatives. Henry did not know that he was such a freak unintended. X-rays were put on him. Then he decided that he was an asset to museum and started for New York for a job. CAME TO GET A NEW BRAIN AND CHARACTER New York—Elderly, neatly attired and of quiet demeanor, Miss Emily Jane Clarke, a Boston schoolteacher, entered the reception room of the OakleyCher Institute For Medical Research at Skipps-sixth street and the East river and asked to see the physician in charge. Dr. Swift promptly presented himself, whereupon Miss Clarke said: "I have heard and read so much of the wonderful work and of the remarkable operations that have been achieved at this institute that I have brought my own personal case here." "And what may your affliction be?" asked the physician. "Well, in the first place, I want a new character"— "A new"—began the doctor. "And an entirely new brain," supplemented Miss Clarke. "I hope you will see your way to take up the work. I absolutely require a new character and a new brain. I received a summons to Believe hospital and gave Miss Clarke in charge of Dr. Roberts, who came in the ambulance. She was placed in the psychopathic ward for observation. THE CHAMPION MOTHER. Woman Thirty-five Years Old Has Borne Twenty-seven Children Borne Twenty-seven Children. Cleveland.—The birth of four boys makes Mrs. William G. Clark of Cleveland the mother of twenty-seven children. She is only thirty-five years old. The child is the first injury to the mother. This is the second set of quadruplets the woman has borne. She also is the mother of three sets of triplets and five sets of twins. Six of her twenty-seven children are alive, the oldest, Roland, being nineteen, and the youngest. Hubbard, is two years old. Mrs. Clark's mother had been born to her. Her grandmother had twenty-nine children, quadruplets and triplets among them. BLOOD CLOT'S ODD EFFECT Untaught Farm Hand Suddenly Becomes a Fidder. Redwood Falls, Minn.-While husking corn on a farm near this city Frantz Schultz, who recently came from Germany, sustained injuries from a runaway team which caused a blood clot on the brain, which is affecting his manner that ends to battle medical men. When brought here for treatment he asked to be permitted to play on a violin, an instrument which he says he never tried to play before. He does not play by note or written music, because he cannot read it, but produces good music notwithstanding. Lizard In a Man Fifteen Years. Mauch Chunk, Pa.-After suffering from a peculiar illness for many years Bernard McNulty has dislodged a six inch lamb in his stomach since the days of the Porto Rican campaign in 1898, when he was a private in the army. Defective Page ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 22,1913. Combined Age of Charter Members in 367 Years—No Sympathy for "Old Men" Who Ride About in Motocarsa Founder Tells How to Walk and Enjoy it in All Weather. New York.—The most exclusive, distinguished and enthusiastic walking club in America has just been organized here. The charter members are Mayor Gaynor, Joseph H. Chote, former ambassador to Great Britain; William B. Hornblower, John E. Parsons, the Nestor of the New York bar, and Louis Windmuller, while a few of those said to be contemplating making an application for membership are Andrew Carnegie, Isaac N. Seligman, Jacob H. Schiff, Surrogate Fowler, General George W. Wingate and Karl Pickhardt. That the walking club had been duly organized was announced at the mayor's office, and with the announcement came the added information that some fine day very soon one need be surprised to read of a hike participated in by all the charter members, which will begin in City Hall by American Press Association. MAYOR GAYNOR OF NEW YORK READY FOR A WALK. park and end somewhere in Bronx park or Coney Island or Fort Hamilton. They may even hike all the way to Yonkers. It was said. The club will be known as the Pedestrians' club, and the men named as charter members have signed an agreement, the main object of the club being the furthering of the fine art of walking and enjoying it right here in the city of New York. The agreement was drawn up by Mr. Choate, and all the charter members have affixed their signatures to it. The document is now on file in the mayor's office. The text of the agreement is yet to be made public. To Louis Windmuller, the noblest walker of them all, is given the credit for having first suggested the formation of the Pedestrians' club. There is no more enthusiastic walker in the city, and he has no sympathy whatsoever for the healthy individual who prefers riding on horseback, in automobile or buggy on or rapid transit trains to peripatetic. "I had a friend here," said Mr. Windmuller, his reference being to General Wingate, who is a great walker, and he offers tells the virtues of his life that he enjoys to the utmost in a walk down Broadway in rain and in shine. I walk four hours every day, one hour before breakfast, one hour after dinner and two in going to and coming home from my office. I dine at 6:30 p. m., so the after dinner tramp is usually taken in the dark, but I enjoy it just as much as I do those of the day. "I delight to see people. To enjoy walking one must use his eyes and the brain as much as he does his legs. I prefer to look at the faces of people to looking at the buildings and into shop windows. A good rule to make your tramp a really enjoyable pastime is to be careful and not walk too fast. My purpose is to every twenty-five minutes, or a bit more than two miles to the hour. If you go faster than that you have little time to see. Your object should not be to get to the place you set out for." The combined age of the five charter members of the Pedestrians' club is 867 years. Mr. Parsons is eighty-four, Mr. Choate eighty-one, Mr. Windmiller seventy-eight and Mayor Gaynor and Mr. Hornblower are each sixty-two years old. Of the prospective members Mr. Carnegie is seventy-eight. General Mr. Carnegie is Mr. Schifter sixty-six and Mr. Seligman, who will be the baby of the club, is only fifty-eight years old. SAVED BY TOY ELEPHANT. Scientist Tells Kids Plastic Toads Scientist Tells How Plaything Terrified Akshan, Cannibal, Kua African Cannibal King. Philadelphia - Eulli Torday, Konge explorer, who saved his life when he faced an irate savage monkey in the wilds of Africa by the use of a mechanical toy, has returned to take charge of cataloguing the ethnographic collection at the University of Pennsylvania. "When I arrived within the domain of the cannibal king," said Mr Torday. "I was ordered to go back. When I refused the king, accompanied by all his savage retinue, came to my tent for the purpose of personally attending to my execution. In my trunk was a tiny mechanical elephant controlled by clockwork. Glad to seize any chance to prolong my life. I wound it and placed it before the savage ruler. "As the little toy, with swaying trunk, clicked its way toward the monarch and his party they fleed. They returned later, thoroughly awed, and treated me as if I were a deity." MOUSE DERAILS CAR Women Passengers, Fleeing, Bowl Over Motorman. Pittsburgh.—A street car was derailed, the line tied up and a score of West Pittsburghs were badly missed up late at night when a wee bit of a mouse made its appearance in a car carrying theatergoers back to their homes. When the mouse meandered out on the floor of the car the women made wild traps and gyrations in their forts to get out of the front end of the car. They knocked the motorman down, and the car, running at a high rate of speed, ran into a switch and went over into the mud. The line was blocked for an hour. WOMAN ON TRIAL FOR KILLING 1,012 Russian Ogress Charged With Wholesale Poisoning. St. Petersburg—the most colossal murder trial in the annals of history will begin at Archangel next month when a woman "philthropist," Mine Kusnezwa, will be "philthropist." Mine Kusnezwa, will be docked with murdering 1,012 children by poison. The ogress—as such she is termed here—kept a baby farm outside the town, where illegitimate children were adopted for special prices were made for aristocratic mothers. The fact that ever since the plice was opened five years ago the death rate among the infants and been tainted high $230 died in the year 1968 did not in this context, as child morality in normally high Eventually, however the police began to make inquiries After exhuming a score of bodies in the cemetery adjoining the home they arrested the woman. A remarkable feature of this wholesale massacre of innocents is that proper death certificates were given in each instance. Several of the children, of course, had died of natural causes, but the vast majority were found to have been poisoned. At one period there were 450 children in the home. Search is being made for the doctor, while several of Mine. Kusnezwa's sisters are under suspicion. The trial, in which the greatest interest is taken, in which the case to be taken several months, as each case to be taken more or less separately, and the evidence of over 800 mothers will be beard. A NEW KIND OF THIEF. "Second Story Men" Got Away With Williams' Roof. Chicago—Of all the odd body of thieves shown in the police records the most curious was reported when E. A. Williams, who lives alone and works at night, complained that thieves had stolen the roof of his house. Williams' house is a one room affair on which he had just renewed the roof. The new timber evidently was regarded as valuable. NOTES FROM THE NEWS. Charles V. Keeler of Winamac, Ind. paid $100 for a hog at Canonsburg, N.J. The porcher had swallowed Keeler's $200 watch, which slipped from his pocket. A Winamac butcher will explore the porch interior to retrieve the timepiece. A rural mail carrier at Barawell, S.C. had in his parcel load a nine pound liver pudding, two babies and a wooden leg when he was attacked by a wildcat. He used the wooden leg to vanquish the cat and saved babies and pudding unharmed. Montclair, N.J., leads the egg contest. A Staten Island Wyandotte started it with a double egg, one inside the other, shells and all complete. Then a jealous Brooklyn Leghor cackled and an egg nine inches long and six and a half inches in diameter was added to the exquisite Butler. But the Mouth Rock owned by Charles Poole by Mouth Rock waited and now enters the list with a Slamese dumbbell egg, two perfect eggs joined by a shell tube an inch long. STOP CRUELTY IN RUBBER REGIONS President of Peru Promises to Stamp Out Peonage. WILL ARREST MURDERERS Minister Pazet Gives Assurance of Reforms on Same Day That President Taft Sends Message to Congress Based on Report Made by Stuart J. Fuller, Special Investigator. Washington. At the time that President Taft's message on the Punjab may attreaties in Peru was being read in congress Federico Pezet, the Punjab van minister to the United States, presented to the secretary of state a communication from his government and announcing the strict rule of Peru's new executive, President Billinghurst, to stamp out pennage in the rubber regions and bring the murderers of the Indian slaves to justice. Two years ago the British government sent Sir Roger Casement to investigate the reported outrages in the Indians, with the result that the world witnessed a series of wholesome murders and a condition of barbarism imparalleled by any similar history of human greed. Last April the United States government ordered Stuart J. Fuller, consul at Gateburg, Norway, to go to Iquitua, Peru, as consul, to and to investigate the STUART J. FULLER. operations of the Peruvian Amazon company in the Puttinmayo region. Mr. Fuller's report was the basis of the president's message sent to congress The report confirms in the main the appalling accounts given by Sir Roger Casement, but states that the American investigator found that many of the white witnesses from Barbados had been sent out of the country, that the rubber company was apparently conducting its business in a more informal manner, and that the officer went he was dogged by agents the company and prevented from securing evidence. The agents of the company were afraid to tell anything lest they should inordinate themselves or their comrades, and the Indians were sufficiently terrorized to keep them from telling anything comparable to the accounts secured by Sir Roger Casement. Mr. Fuller got evidence that one firm brought 200 men from Barbados to serve them in the upper waters of the Mekong, Carapana and Middle Lacamara river in Thailand, and then rubber region. These white men were armed with Winchester and were set at the task of enslaving Indians and compelling them to gather rubber. The Indians were an unresisting people and fell easy prey to the white men. They were forced to submit by flogging, imprisonment in stocks in the hot sun without food for days, by threats of shooting and by the sight of their kin being shot. The white men seized the wives of the Indians, and some of the overseers made large barems of Indian women. Old men were so weak they could not gather rubber were hung up by the thumbs. The statement presented by Minister Pezet represents that President Billinghurst has followed the investigations of Great Britain and the United States and has decided to put a stop to the outrages. He has sent army officers to arrest the men guilty of murder and where they have fed the country intends to demand their extradition. President Billinghurst has decided to erect at Iquitos a bishopric and five mission stations at different points to look after the spiritual needs of the Indians and give them instruction. Army officers have been placed in charge of the administration of the government region, and it is confidently believed that the means employed effective to prevent any further outrages. The communication concludes by saying: "This indignation is not alone because these events have occurred in our territory, but on account of the harm which they have done to Peru by giving us an undeserved nobility for deep rooted cruelty, which is not a trait of our national character." A LIGHTHOUSE FAMILY. Three Generations Have Been In Great Lake Service. Superior, Wis.-Three generations of Malones have be lighten屋keepers on the great lakes. Al Malone, the third of the family that ships from the rock bound island coast, is in charge of Isle Royale station. The Superior man has been in charge of the Isle Royale light for nearly three years. He succeeded his father, J. H. Malone, and is the youngest lighthouse keeper on the great lakes. His age is twenty-nine, and as assistant to his father and later as keeper he has been in the government service thirteen years. The elder Malone is now in charge of the Pipe island station on Lake Huron. He has been in the service for thirty-nine years, having taken charge of the Isle Royale station in 1874, when that ship was built. Peter Malone is a grandfather of Al Malone, who died a score of years age at the remarkable age of 108, was also a keeper and was in charge of the Portage lake ship canal when it was established. PELORUS JACK IS MISSING. Best Known Grampus In World and Protected by New Zealand Law Auckland, New Zealand. - Pelorus Jack, the best known fish in the world, which for thirty years has wooled ships night and day through the Cook ship, has been missing for some time, and it is feared he is suffering from an illness that will result in his death. Jack, whose scientific name is Grampus Criseus, was shot by a tourist on one of the vessels he was plotting about ten years ago. As a result of this attack the New Zealand government passed a special law protecting him. About five years ago another grampus was swimming with him for a short period, after which Jack disappeared for a few weeks. His substitute for the job, and a gunboat was sent to find what had become of Jack. Before the return of the gunboat Jack got back and took up his job of plotting the liners again. SUGGESTS BREEDING OF A "WHAT-IS-IT?" Congressman Akin "Jokes" Animal Bureau Chief. Washington—Representative Albin of New York has a mild fund on with t. A. D. Melvin of the animal industry y bureau, and he has made the house, a party to it. He introduced a resolution authorizing the secretary of agriculture to expend $1,000 "in the purchase of six high grade, thoroughbred male turkey buzzards and ninety-nine thoroughbred humming birds, each to be examined and passed upon by Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the bureau of animal industry, to soundness of limb and heart strength, to soundness of limb and heart strength, to make as to the value of the offspring be they grats or fleas, for agricultural purposes." The resolution further orders Dr. Melvin to report to congress "whether the experiment is more valuable to the American farmer than the one now going on in this bureau where thousands of dollars have been expended to raise zebras in Africa and transporting them to the District of Columbia, where they are placed in a lock to Missouri mules, the offspring of which seem to be a cross between a North Dakota jack rabbit and an Australian kangaroo." TO STOP HUMPBACK GROWTH. Albee Operation Successfully Performed in New England. Salem, Mass.-Dr. Harvey F. Newhall of Lynn at the Salem hospital performed what is known as the "Albee operation" for prevention of humpback from tuberculosis of the spine. The operation consists in grafting a piece of bone into the spine so the formation of a spinos "knuckle," which causes humpback, will be avoided. This operation was first performed by Dr. Albee of New York, but has been performed in New England only once previously to the present case. In the operation, spinos processes of the vertebrae above and below the side of the disease are split longitudinally, and a piece of healthy bone is grafted into the groove. The new method replaces an older jacket for two years. BANDITS HAD FALSE HOOFS. Ingenious Contravances Are Found Near Edge of a Swamp. Long Beach, Cal.-What is believed to have been a safe blows' cache, discovered at the edge of a swamp near here, yielded several ingenious contrivances apparently intended to divert pursuit after the commission of a crime. They were a pair of imitation horse hooves carved out of pine and fitted with straps so that they could be adjusted to a pair of shoes; an imitation cow's hoof fastened to a cane evidently was intended to be used in conjunction with the others to help give the impression of a man on horseback driving a cow. $2.40 PER YEAR: EIGHT BELLS FOR THE SCHOOL SHIP LEGISLATURE MAY SAVE IT. New York is Tired of Paying $60,000 a Year For Benefit of Less Than a Hundred Students—Tillman's Strong Plea For Its Continuance—Was Started Forty Years Ago. New York—If the order of the board of education discontinuing the New York Nautical school is final it means that the final chapter has been written in the history of almost the sole remaining link between the present day and the vanished age of the American merchant service that has been the model for similar institutions abroad and was almost unique in this country. Before the school can be finally regarded as abolished, however, the action of the board must be confirmed by a vote of the legislature. The reasons given by the board for its action can be summed up in the statement that the school was not giving the city a sufficient return for the money expended. It is said that the school has been costing the city upward of $0,000 a year for the benefit of less than a hundred students. It has been said that out of several hundred pupils graduated records can be found of only a hundred or so who are following the sea. To this Commander E. H. Tillman, U. S. N., superintendent of the school, retorts that the school is provided of keeping track of the student after graduation, and that therefore the school prove anything. In his annual report to the board of education the superintendent made a strong plea for the continuance of the school. The New York Nautical school was instituted in 1873, its object being, in the words of the statute establishing Photo by American Press Association. COMMANDER E. H. TILLMAN, U. S. N. it, "for the instruction of youths in navigation, seamanship, marine engineering and all matters pertaining to the construction, equipment and sailing of vessels or any any particular branch thereof." For many years the school's training ship was the old frigate St Mary's. A few years ago she was replaced by the gunboat Newport, furnished by the navy department. While the school is under the control of the board of education, the superintendent, an officer of the line of the navy, selects its own assistants, usually retired naval officers or at least graduates of the Naval academy. The boys are quartered on board ship during the winter term, but she remains sung alongside the pler, which is held by the gymnasium and a rigging loft. Their life is regulated with a view to preparing them for ship discipline. About April 1 each year the winter term ends and the youngsters are sent away on vacation. The Newport is then sent to the Brooklyn navy yard to be overhaired for her summer cruise. The cruise lasts from May until nearly October. The boys are divided into watches, and under the supervision of the officers and the crew of old experienced seamen they do the bulk of the actual work of the ship. As soon as the Newport reaches the open sea the engines are dispensed with, and from then until the end of the cruise (the young mariners handle reef and ice), send up and cross light yards, make and take in sail, heave the lead and perform every part of a seaman's duties, not forgetting the holstoning of the decks in the morning. The cruise usually takes in Stockholm, Christiania, Copenhagen and the other famous seaports of northern Europe and sometimes also Madraea, the Azores and nearly every other port on the Atlantic that has bred stout seamen in the past. Our return home in the autumn the boys undergo inspection by the board of education, and they are of the age who have completed their two years of credit receive the diplomas setting forth that they are genuine sailors, "every hair a rope yarn and blood Stockholm hat."

St. Paul, Minn., Jan. 4, 1913, Publisher, THE APPEAL. Sir: Although the newspapers from time to time have published information with reference to the parcel post system, in operation since January 1, 1913, it is evident that many people do not post with reference thereto, and therefore I respectfully request that you publish for the information of your readers, that: 1. Distinctive parcel post stamps must be used on all fourth-class matter, that such matter bearing ordinary stamps will be treated as "held for postage," for postage. 2. That parcels will be maillable only at the post office, the branch post office, or the numbered nations designated by the postmaster, or presented to rural or other carriers duly authorized to receive such matter; that 3. All parcels must bear the return card of the sender, otherwise they will not be accepted for mailing. 4. It will also be understood that parcel post stamps are not valid for payment of postage on matter of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd class, nor can any of said classes be accepted at the parcel post rate of postage. 5. Registration of parcels has been discontinued, but instead parcels are insured against loss in an amount equivalent to its actual value, up to $50. J. LOUIS ERVIN. Attorney at Law, of Duluth, is Coming to St. Paul to Practice Law. During the early part of the week, J. Louis Ervin, attorney-at-law, of Duluth, was in the city making arrangements to come to St. Paul to enter upon practice here. Attorney Ervin graduated from the College of Law, University of Minnesota, with the class of 1907, and opened an office at Duluth, where he has been very successful. While Attorney Ervin has handled nearly all cases, he has also anticorps of Duluth during his six years practice there, his practice has by no means been confined to the Afro J. LOUIS ERVIN. Americans. Mr. Ervin has been retained in nearly every phase of criminal law, as well as many very important civil matters. He has been particularly successful in criminal law, contracts, real estate, mortgages, insurance, probate matters and corporation laws. Mr. Ervin is giving up a very good practice in Duluth owing to the ill health of his wife. It seems that the climate of Duluth does not agree with Mrs. Ervin; the doctors of Duluth have advised her to get away from Lake Superior. She has been living in St. Paul for the past year and her health has improved greatly. It is for this reason that Mr. Ervin is giving up his practice in Duluth. Attorney Ervin has had six years of actual practice, so he comes to St. Paul as a seasoned lawyer. He has practiced in all of the State Courts, also in the United States Circuit and United States District Courts, since locating in Duluth. Attorney Ervin expects to be located in St. Paul on or about March 15, 1913. FLOWER LOVERS. Send for Green's Imperial Poppy Seed Mixture. A rare treat and a delightful surprise to lovers of flowers.

"May I just glance in at the other place before we, ascend to eternal happiness?" So they went below and skirmish around, taking in the sights. It so happened that the angel lost track of the editor and went around Hades by an enormous furnace, firing himself and gazing with rapture. Upon a crowd of lost souls in the fire, Over the furnace was a sign bearing the words, "Delinquent subscribers" editor, "I'm not going. This is heaven Come," said the angel, "we must be going now."

Mr. Washington Boddy, a well known young man about town died on last Monday at the city hospital, of pneumonia, aged 33 years. He was the son of Mrs. Eliza Bridges, 287 St. Anthony ave. The funeral was held in Lyles' Mortuary Chapel, on Wednesday at 2:30 p. m. Rev. E. H. McDonald officiating. The chapel was filled with friends of the deceased and many handsome funeral tributes surrounded his casket. A peculiar circumstance occurred in connection with his funeral. A few years ago the deceased was married and Steward were great friends in St. Louis. In. 1904 Chas. Herns died there and In. 1904 Chas. Steward attended the funal of their mutual friend and they made an agreement between themselves that which ever outlived the other, the survivor would attend the funeral of the deceased and pronounce an eulogy. Wednesday morning the survivor of the two of friends, with his wife, arrived in St. Paul. Steward made inquiry for his friend Boddy and was shocked to learn that he was dead, and that his funeral would take place that afternoon. He at once went to Lyles' establishment and while he shed tears over his departed friend he told Mr. Lyles of the agreement made. He appeared at the funeral and told the story, admitted that he was a sinner and asked the prayers of the christians in his behalf. He spoke at length and there was scarcely a dry eye in the audience, and the sad scene will not soon be forgotten by those who were present. It certainly was a singular circumstance.
