CITY PEOPLE DIE EARLIEST IN LIFE
Interesting Statistics Presented by Census Bureau.
UPHOLD THEORIES OF OSLER
Man's Vitality Sapped in the Larger Communities—Comparative Number of Deaths at Various Ages in Leading Cities of United States—Refreshing Critics Offered by the Country.
Washington. — The census bureau makes public figures which appear to corroborate the contention of Dr. William Osler that a man in the city is near the end of his prime at forty years and cannot on the average "come back" after that. In the olden days the prime of life was the period from thirty-five to fifty-four years, but nowadays, under the stress and strain of competition, the prime of life in the cities and in the factory districts has been moved ten years nearer the cradle. This fact is shown by a study of the comparative number of deaths at various ages per thousand of population. For instance, in the city of Greater New York the number of those who die between the ages of twenty-five and forty-four is only thirty-eight per thousand of population, whereas the number who die between thirty-five and fifty-four years of age is sixty-three. Other American cities show the same statistics. Thus:
Deaths at Deaths at
25 to 44 35 to 54
years. years.
Boston 29 63
New York 38 63
Chicago 37 61
St Louis 37 62
Philadelphia 37 58
San Francisco 35 63
Newark, N. J. 35 69
The rural communities offer a refreshing contrast to the cities in respect to the "come back" period of life.
In Indiana, for instance, the number
DR. WILLIAM OBLER.
of people who die when between twenty-five and forty-four years per thousand of population is thirty-one as against thirty-nine who die when thirty-five to fifty-four years old. In Vermont the number is thirty-two as against thirty-nine; in Maine it is thirty as against thirty-seven.
The states where factory conditions prevail show the marked rise in mortality after forty years. Thus in Massachusetts the mortality at the twenty-five to forty-four-year period is thirty-six as against fifty-one at the thirty-five to fifty-four-year period. In Rhode Island the corresponding figures are thirty-nine and sixty.
The same conditions prevail in Europe, where the deaths at the two age periods are as follows: Russia, 39 and 50; Austria, 39 and 50; Prussia, 30 and 48; Scotland, 39 and 56; France, 36 and 50; England and Wales, 31 and 53; Belgium, 29 and 44.
In pastoral countries, where most of the cities are the open air, the prime of life lusts into "green old age". In Holland the deaths at the two periods named are 28 and 39; in Sweden, 28 and 37; in Denmark, 25 and 38.
The vitality of the young男 differ somewhat as between one state and another in the United States, but the differences are not as marked in this country as they are in Europe.
Perhaps the strangest data collected by the census bureau are in regard to Bulgaria. Wonderful stories of the old age attained by Bulgarians, owing to their sour milk diet, have been told in the American papers, but, according to the census figures fewer persons survive to the age of seventy-five in Bulgaria than in any other country in Europe or in any state or any big city in the United States. Heart disease, the latest tabulated disease, is the greatest single cause of death in the United States. Exactly one-tenth of all the people in the registration area of the country perished in 1911 from alliances of that great organ of the body. The registration area for 1911 covered 37.2 percent of the area and 63.1 per cent of the population of the Union.
BAN TEMPERANCE BOYS.
Assistant Professor from An Old University in Germany.
Greifswald, Germany. - The expulsion of some students from Greifswald university because of their total abstinence principles has caused a sensation here. The university is one of the oldest in Germany, having been founded in 1456.
The students, numbering about 1,000, were called together in June to attend a typical "beer evening" in celebration of the emperor's jubilee. Several abstainers protested and were reprimanded by the officials, who said the protest was a "infortune to action against academical accusations." One of the abstainers criticized the reprimand and was sentenced to three days' confinement in the university dungeon.
Further protests led to even more drastic steps, and two of the students were expelled.
RECALLS MOLLY PITCHER.
Mrs. Samuel Sipe, 101 Years Old, Was
Friend of Monmouth Heroes.
Friend of Montmout Herine.
Carlisle, Pa.-Mrs. Samuel Sipe, who was a child friend of Molly Pitcher and a resident of Carlisle for ninety-four years, celebrated her one hundred and first birthday here.
Mrs. Sipe vividly recalls history spanned the century and is in possession of all her memoirs. She recalls Molly Pitcher, the assertion Monmouth, and refutes the assertion that she is buried in any other place than Carlisle, where memorials have been placed over the woman's grave.
Mrs. Sipe was born in Switzerland in 1812 and came to Carlisle when she was eight years old, when this place was but the hunting ground for settlers in the Cumberland valley.
$10,000 FOR KISSES.
Young Ladies Sell Them to Furnish a Hospital.
Salem, O.—Twenty thousand masculine lips pressed those of six fair members of prominent families in a scheme whereby $20,000 was raised toward a fund to endow Salem hospital through the dispensing of women's kisses at $1 each.
Men, young and old, stood in line to enjoy the osculatory performance. All the women were single. One married woman, seeking to do her part, compromised by shaking hands at 25 cents a shake. One of the vultims, her husband, she charged $2 for the privilege publicly of closing his fingers over hers.
SAVE DOGS FROM VIVISECTIONISTS
Women Buy 800 Animals at a Dollar Apiece.
Philadelphia.—A dollar apiece for 800 dogs intended for the knives of vivisectionists saved the animals from that fate, to be put to death in a pailless manner. The purchases were made by agents of the women's branch of the Pennsylvania Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The dogs had been bought from boys and tramps at 50 cents each by Samuel S. Geyer of the University of Pennsylvania Medical school.
Miss Henrietta Oden, one of the leaders in the society's three years' warfare against the medical men, and Miss Katherine S. Nicholson and Mrs William Poole were the representatives of the society in the case. Miss Oden is greatly pleased over the society's victory in the indictment of Mrs J. Smith, former dean of the medical Richard W. Richards, Richard Mills Pearce, Alonzo Engelburt Taylor and Joshua A. Sweet. They are accused of cruelty to animals in connection with their work as vivisectionists.
ETHER KILLS PARIS BEAUTY.
Mile. Fleury Took Huge Quantities; Also Opium In Cigarettes. Paris—The mysterious and sudden death of Pierrele Fleury, professional beauty, led the police to investigate the cause, and they found that it was due to ether, of which the twenty-two-year-old girl took enormous quantities, cocaine and other drugs. She was in the habit of smoking daily many cigarettes into which she had introduced heroin. It is stated by the police that the actress at whose house the beauty was found dead and a male employed there will be prosecuted on a charge of "homicide by imprisonment."
BABES DYING OF FRESH AIR?
Report of Ellis Island infantile Mortality to Be Investigated.
Washington.--Reports to the department of labor that a minister of the gospel had charged that many bables of immigrants were dying at Ellis Island through too much fresh air have been ordered investigated by Anthony Camnettii, commissioner general of immigrants.
Mr. Camnettii said that if such conditions existed he would see that they were corrected. He added that if the charges were accurate the man who made them would be excluded from the privileges of the immigration station.
THE APPEAL.
NEW FLEET TO BE MIGHTIEST OF ALL
NEW FLEET TO BE MIGHTIEST OF ALL
THE FRIDE OF AMERICANS.
As Oceans Join, Both Fleets of Uncle Sam's Navy May Become One, Thus Forming Greatest Naval Unit In World — Twenty-five Dreadnoughts to File Through the Canal.
New York — How many people in this land realize that the days of the Atlantic fleet are numbered? The Atlantic fleet, that great organization which inspired Kipling to help immortalize Bob Evans, which brought applause from an admiring world when it sailed out of Hampton Roads and steamed triumphantly back again at the end of the first great naval chmnavigation of the globe; which thrilled millions of Americans when majestically it passed in review before the president of the United States on its way to sea last year; the fleet of which every American is and of right ought to be proud. Yet the day of its passing is not far off.
But the going is also the coming, for simultaneously with the end of the world famed Atlantic fleet there will come into existence a still greater fleet, to be known as the United States fleet; a fleet that will pass at the will of the naval chiefs from ocean to ocean and which will be—as the Atlantic fleet of today is—not equally important in the defensive scheme of both the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards.
The Atlantic fleet of today is a splendidly officered and manned organization of twenty-one super-Dreadnoughts, Dreadnoughts and first line battleships. As a fighting unit it is certainly the equal and, in the opinion of thousands who are in a position to judge, the superior, ship to ship, of any fleet that ships any sea under any flag. It is a fleet whose vessels total in displacement more than 300,000 tons, excluding all militaries. It numbers among its militaries the greatest Dreadnought Arkansas, which less than a fortnight ago made civilization take notice when it was officially announced that her gunners had smashed every existing record made with guns of the twelve inch type.
The day when the Atlantic fleet passes gloriously into history and the United States fleet takes its place in the lineup of the world's great naval organizations will be the day when the old Oregon, the famous ship of 1889 that sailed around South America and joined Sampon in the nick of time to win an undying name at Santiago, will lead the American fleet from the Atlantic to the Pacific via the Panama canal behind the Oregon, which for only a few years was the only ship the fleet that is dying and the fleet that is being born. The fleet will include twelve Dreadnoughts and super-Dreadnoughts and as many battleships of the first line. The displacement of the fleet will approximate half a million tons.
The fleet's thousand guns of all types if fired simultaneously would burn up in smokeless powder more than $50,000, the projectiles would weigh approximately 231,000 pounds, and the total dring cost would be slightly in excess of $145,000.
In order properly to appreciate the magnitude of the United States fleet that is to be it may not be out place to say a word or two of the Atlantic fleet of yesterday and today, the splendid fleet which sailed around the globe under Evans, Thomas and Sperry, a trio of great fleet commanders, all now dead. When Theodore Roosevelt as president of the United States bade the fleet under Evans godspeed as it steamed past the Virginia's capes that December day in 1907 there was not an American worthy the name who did not feel a heart throb of pride as he saw or pictureed that magnificent line of vessels which the flagship Connected led out to sea, from her foremast two two armed blue penant of "Fighting Elephant" then beginning, as events proved, his last voyage as commander in chief of the Atlantic fleet.
The United States fleet is to be the first under the American flag in which two entire divisions will be made up of vessels of the all big gun type. That fleet, when it officially comes into existence, will probably comprise twenty-five fighting ships in addition to a great fleet of naval auxiliaries and navalats of torpedo boat destroyers and submarines. The New York will be the flagship, and therefore it is not out of place to tell briefly just what kind of a ship this namesake of the Empire State is to be. She will carry in her main battery ten guns of the newly perfected fourteen inch type, each so mounted that all can be used in a single broadside to either port or starboard. Each of these guns will fire a projectile weighing 1,400 pounds, meaning a broadside of 14,000 pounds to fire which will cost the United States government $1,770 each time. Such a broadside will mean the explosion of 3,700 pounds of smokeless powder. This powder wholesale costs 53 cents a pound, meaning $1,980 per broadside.

dropped lower and faster than on his previous remarkable flights before he turned over. The spectators became greatly alarmed when they saw the tips of the wings vibrate like those of a bird after it had been struck. They feared he had lost control but he manned the right the machine with great difficulty. Explaining his experience afterward, he said that the machine for the moment was quite uncontrollable, whether owing to the extra weight or because it was badly balanced he did not know. He declared that he would try again and would find out.
Washington.—With the approval of the president legislation barring from interstate commerce any article which is misbranded and fraudulently represented, which would apply the pure food law principle to all commerce between the states, will be advance at the approaching regular session of congress. The bill will originate in the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce, and a subcommittee already has been named to draft it. President Wilson heartily indoles the principle of the legislation and has so advised leaders in congress. A dozen bills to close the arteries of commerce to misrepresented wares have been introduced in this congress. Similar bills were introduced in prior seminars, but no one has taken them seriously, and it is known to only a few that the president has been giving this subject considerable attention and has said, "Go ahead." The sub-committee of the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce has been delegated by Chairman Adamson to take the various "pure manufactures" bills introduced and to draft a general measure which would apply the pure food law idea to practically everything manufactured and shipped across state lines.

ARTIST LIVED TWO MONTHS IN WILDS
USED SKINS AS HIS RAIMENT
Had Lost Thirty Pounds, but Is Well. Lonesomeness of the Forest One of the Worst Features and Nearly Drove Him Mad—Had No Food and Lived on Animals He Killed and Berries.
Boston—Joseph Knowles, the Boston artist, after a two months' fight for existence in the forests of Maine, is back in civilization.
Clad in rudely dressed skins of black bear and deer and carrying in a pack on his back a fire machine and other tools he had, fashioned to aid him in living in a primitive way. Knowles looked like a cave man. Thus ended a test of hardhood and endurance, of skill in conquering a bostile environment.
On Aug. 4 Knowles plunged into the forests near Spencer lake, in Somerset county. He. He was naked. He had no weapons, no tools or implements of any kind. no food. He promised to come out of the woods clad and good health and physical condition. He has kept his promise in every detail.
He lost thirty pounds of weight in the two months, dropping from 204 pounds to 174. His appearance clearly told the tale of the hardships he has undergone. From head to beel he was scratched and bruised by the brilars and underbrush in which he lived for sixty days. He is tamed almost black.
Over his neck and arms was a black bear skin, cleverly fastened with thongs of deerskin. His trousers were of deer skin, made Indian fashion, with the hair inside. His feet were incased in moccasin of buckskin, sewed with shew. He wore no hat, no sleeves, no underwear.
On his back was a knapsack of woven bark. It was filled with trophies from the forest. Slung over his arm were his bows and arrows. Sheathed in buckskin a crude knife of horn hung from his belt. He was often consisted of fish, deer meat, bear meat, spruce parriards and berries," said Knowles. I found blueberries in the burdens land. I am feeling in fine condition. I do not believe every man can do what I have done, but I feel confident that a man with good health, a knowledge of the woods and resourcefulness can accomplish the same thing. I believe any one of the game wardens could do it. I have satisfied a curiosity. "The hardest thing of all was the awful lonesomeness, because of which I came near coming out twice. The isolation almost drove me crazy. Several times I have heard voices afar off and that made it only the harder.
"The eating question is nother; nothing is the dress. I have not suffered a speech from the cold. It was that awful lonesomeness.
"For the last ten days I did little.
"For that time I constantly aspired to accomplish something, but my ambition left me. During the last ten days I believe I gained ten pounds because of this.
"On my trip up to Canada I simply used the moss on the north side of the trees to guide me. I started on the march to Canada the day after I waved the torch on the shore of King and Bartlett lake. When I got out I was not sure whether it was Saturday or Sunday. It was a pretty rough country, but my trip was largely down hill all the way.
"I came through the deepest forest because I did not dare to strike the roads, for fear of being seen before time. Then from up in the mountains I heard a wonderful thing. I heard the whistle of a train. I pressed toward it and finally came on the railroad tracks."
When questioned about salt, he said he missed it very much for the first few weeks, but after that he never thought about it. When asked what he would have to eat he ordered fried salt pork and potatoes.
CENSUS OF EMPLOYEES.
Postoffice the Largest Business Department of the Government.
Washington.—Approximately one in every 400 inhabitants of the United States is employed by the postal service. Tabulations by the postoffice department show that on June 30 last there were 38,921 postmasters, 115,415 assistant postmasters and postoffice clerks, 1,454 watchmen, messengers and laborers and 30,920 city letter carriers.
Other employees—railway and mail clerks, rural carriers and department employee—make the total number of employees 1,543. This makes the postoffice department the largest business department of the government.
More Pay, Less Work Time.
Washington.—A report just issued by the United States bureau of labor statistics on wages and work hours in the cotton, woolen and silk industries, which employ 371,000, 163,000 and 98,000 persons, respectively, shows that between 1820 and 1912 wages largely rose while working hours declined.

DIÉS AFTER FIGHT FOR GIRL
Ex-Pugilist Fatally Beaten In Fist
Combat to Win Helen Martin.
St. Louis. - John Mortier, a former pugilist, died of injuries received in a fist fight with Sergeant Hermann Ohler of the United States army in rivalry for the hand of Miss Helen Martin. The girl gave the pair to the doctor that she wud wed the victor and announced her engagement to Ohler.
Since his retirement from the ring Mortier had been a confectioner. He fell in love with Miss Martin, who twisted him with having rude ways and remarked several times that he had a rival who was gallant in the extreme. Then she introduced the rivals to each other.
The pugilist remarked in the hearing of the soldier that any one who would drink wine from a woman's slipper was mollodycled. Miss Martin said that a lady bellowed. Ohler would drink wine from her slipper. Ohler immediately essayed the feet, but the pugilist pugilated against him, causing him to spill the wine.
An apology was demanded, and when it was not made the fight was arranged.

Munich—Otto, the mad king of Bavaria, is reported to be falling rapidly. Among other things he is tormented with carbuncles. The Bavarians receive the news thankfully. Otto has now been king of Bavaria for twenty-seven years, but he has never been seen by his subjects since his accession to the throne. During the lifetime of his elder brother and predecessor the late King Louis, he was already pronounced as incurably insane and placed under close restraint. Louis himself had to be deprived of the reins of government and placed under restraint in 1886, and his tragic death a few weeks later, in a mountain of Bavaria. Davaria was completely cleared.
For twenty-seven years Otto has been a prisoner in his forest castle of Furstenfeld, hopelessly insane and knowing nothing of the course history is taking outside his prison walls, although he has ever remained the only real king of Bavaria, in whose name the law is read and the money is coined. For twenty-seven years his life has been one of total oblivion, with only an occasional glimpse of light in the darkness of his mind.
$30,000 THEFT NOW $7.
Amount Reported Taken From San Francisco Mint Dwindles.
Washington.-Secret service men lost a chance to unravel a mysterious robbery in the mint at San Francisco when it developed that $7, not $30,000, is missing.
William G. McAdoo, secretary of the treasury, received a report on the robbery. The amount taken, providing advevices, came from the bags of silver dollars which are piled a thousand in a pack in the vaults of the mint. Huge washers had been substituted for the "cart wheels."
Glass forced Through Arm.

When the storm came up and the wind was blowing at a terrific rate Mr. Ramey went to the front door to close it, but before he could do so the wind blew the door hard against his hand, breaking the piece of the glass passed through his mouth that left going between the bones that connect the wrist joint and passing out the other side.

STRANGE GREETING FOR A MILITANT
Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, American Suffragist, Does Not Think That English Leader Should Be Entertained, as Few Courtesies Were Shown Americans While Abroad.
New York. — Will Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst be allowed by the immigration authorities to land in this country?
Most of the suffragete leaders say they honor Mrs. Pankhurst as a woman, but that they don't approve of her methods. Her visit is going to put them in an awkward position. If they don't pay any attention to her they will be accused of a slight to a woman who has spent her life working for "the cause." If they do show her attention their action may be interpreted as an approval of militant methods.
This is the choice of evils which Mrs. Pankhurst's has forced upon the American women, and a good many of them are resenting it. The Woman's Political union has taken the buil by the born and cabled to a visitor a visitor an invitation to a public dinner. The invitation has been accepted. But never was hospitality preceded and accompanied by so much hostility.
A solution is to follow Mrs. Pankhurst's own example and leave her alone. Neither she nor her organization ever gave a dinner to a visiting American suffragist in England. She has had plenty of opportunities too.
But the Pankhurst society alone among the English organizations, has never extended a single courtesy to an American leader, not even to Mrs. Catt, the international president.
MRS. EMMELINE PANKHURST.
"why an this talk of what we shall or shall not do for Mrs. Pankhurst?" said Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the national society. "Why not do just as Mrs. Pankhurst does when we visit England? I have been there repeatedly, Mrs. Catt has been there, other presidents of our organizations have been there. I have to know of a luncheon or a dinner to be given by Mrs. Pankhurst or her society for any of us. "When Mrs. Pankhurst, this country we all entertained her to the best of our ability. The National society gave a reception for her, and there were dinners and luncheons and flowers and carriages for her wherever she went. Since then we, for our part, have been in her country, but the Women's Social and Political union has never extended any of these courtesies to us. Wouldn't the natural inference be that Mrs. Pankhurst had signified her own desires and that we should be doing the simple and sensible thing if we did not extend to her the courtesies she forbore to extend to us? Is it true that, as I was reminded by some one the other day, I have spoken and lectured to women in England. But I never received a penny for it. Not only that, but I never had a carriage furnished to take me to the hall. I hired my own. If I marched in of their parades I bought my own asash. And what was true of me in these circumstances was true of other American women.
"I honor Mrs. Pankhurst as a woman, while I disapprove of her methods. I regret for two reasons that she is coming to this country now—first, because at this time we need to focus all our own attention and all the public attention on our own work. Her coming will distract the attention from our issues and our methods.
"In the second place, she is coming here to raise money for her work in England. Thousands of people will pay to see and hear her, and that money will go abroad with her. I am sorry, because this is a critical time with us, and we need money."

As drowning men catch at straws so are we inclined to renew our hopes that all our white brothers are not against us. Mr. John Wanamaker in a speech before the members of the Business Men's League at its recent meeting in Philadelphia, said: "You make a mistake if you think that the white people of this country do not want you to succeed. It is not a matter of race or of face that makes for success, but a matter of grace." That listens very good but the conditions throughout the country appear to be very different. Apparently, every obstacle possible is put in the roads to our success by the whites. It would be a fine thing for us if things were as Mr. Wanamaker thinks they are.
Most people living in the cities of this country know something about the way moving picture shows are patronized, but only a few have any idea that within the last year 6,330,000,000 nickels were spent to see the "movies." This means that $131,000,000 went in that direction carried by 3,600,000 spectators. Over $80,000,000 is invested in the business, more than 200,000 persons are employed and 10,000,000 feet of picture films are produced weekly.
Sir Sldney Oliver, who was governor of Jamaica from 1907 to 1912, at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, said: "No solution of the American color question is possible except by a resolve disclaimer of the color line and the race differentiation theory. Negrophobia is in mixed communities one of the most active sources of danger. Where race differentiation is held to, it must increase civil discord." Sir Sldney Oliver is all right.
The race papers all over the country are greatly wrought up over the Jim Crow segregation which is being put into operation by the prejudiced crushed white men at Washington and
are voicing their sentiment in vigorous and unmistakable terms. We have not space to even slightly refer to what they are saying, but we agree with and indorse every word.
Charles Roberts, Creek freedman of Oklahoma, claims to be the champion father of the United States and possibly of the world. He says he is the father of 51 children. He was first married in 1867 and of that union 19 children were born. He has been married several times since and says he has now 33 children living. Evidently he does not believe in race suicide.
A hen in Cornwallis, Ore., has just made a record that entitles her to claim to be the champion hen of the world. She was hatched April 29, 1912, and began to lay in 5½ months. She has just laid her 283d egg within a year and the title of "the greatest hen in the world" has been conferred upon her by the Oregon Agricultural College. Some hen, eh?
"Society is better or worse in proportion to the education that all of its members receive." This quotation appears on the title page of a report just received of the "Household Ethics and Industrial Training in the Colored Schools of Kentucky." There is nothing the matter with the quotation and from our investigation, nothing the matter with the report.
It was with considerable satisfaction that we noted the strike of the white longshoremen's union of Mobile, Ala., to help the local Afro-American union some 2,000 strong to enforce their demands for an increase in pay. True unionism among laborers should have no color line.
The first daily newspaper in the world, the Daily Courant, was established and edited by a woman, Elizabeth Mallet, in London, England, March, 1703. Women have always been great disseminators of news ever since the days of Mother Eve who told Adam how the apple tasted.

A RACIAL PARALLEL.
Rev. A. J. Carey, Pastor of the Institutional A. M. E. Church, Chicago, Wires Worship of the Jews' Mass Meeting in Washington and Calls Attentions to the Wrongs of the Afro-American People.
A great mass meeting was held in Washington, D. C., Sunday night to protest against the accusion of the Russian government in prosecuting Mendel Belliss, a Jew of 75 kcharge with "ritual murder." Although it has been proven fassse many times the ritual murder lie has persisted against the accusation. Rev. A. J. Carey, D. D., pastor of the Institutional A. M. E. Church of Chicago, sent the following telegram to the Washington mass meeting, approving the protest and calling attention to the similarity of the treatment of the Jews in Russia and the Coloreau Christians in the United States:
"Greeting. May your protest prove effective. God aid you in disproving for all time the infamous "ritual murder."

Inspiration From Fortune Teller Leade
Rivers in Quest
Oregon City, Ore.-Declaring that he has received an inspiration from a grypse fortune teller which will lead him to discover the famous treasure of Captain Kidd, which has been sought for centuries, I. W. Rivers, a prominent Williamette rancher, will start from this city in about two weeks for the Oregon coast. He will meet several years ago while he and his wife were visiting at The Oaks they consulted a fortune teller, who told them that they would discover the treasure. She stated that it would be found in a cave in a rock which is a prominent feature of the coast acney near Nestucca beach. Last year Rivers and his wife went to the beach and found the cave, which is marked by a cross and a horse shoe. Inside the cave, according to the fortune teller, they were to find the fortune teller, but the log was found by Rivers, but to dug the wrong end of it and so did not get the fortune.
This, according to the fortune teller, is just as he would do, for she said he would have to make two trips before he would get the fortune. He is now trying to get capital to finance the scheme.
AT 81 WALKS FIVE MILES.
Makes Long Trip on Foot to Dance
Bunny Hug.
White River Junction, VT. Although
he is eighty-one years old, Dana Burbank of Barnard walked five miles to attend an old folk ball here. Mr. Burbank did not learn to dance until he was seventy-six years old. Now he likes it better than anything else in the world. "I never say the tango or the bunny bug danced." Mr. Burbank told a reporter, "but old as I am I would like to give them just one whirl."
"I don't think there is any harm in dancing or attending dances any more than there is in attending church. I know there is a lot said about dancing, and the idea is that it is immoral, but I don't see it that way. I think there is a lot of enjoyment obtained, and it feels that you are not on the shelf of old dance, and I am now realizing what I missed by not learning before. I don't know just what started me."
DOCTOR HELD FOR CRUELTY TO DOGS
Philadelphia—Dr. J. E. Sweet, assistant professor of surgical research of the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania, was held in $400 bail for court here by Magistrate Haggerty on a charge made by the Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Cruelty to dogs in the university she had crawled through a hole in a fence so that she could gain entrance to the kennels of the university and obtain evidence. Miss Ogden identified the break breaking machine, which she alleged is used in the laboratories to crush out the lives of dogs. The machine is best described as a diminutive gallows. A heavy iron weight is operated on ropes and pulleys so that it will descend with sufficient force to break the backbone of any animal held beneath it.
Magistrate Haggerty at this point said: "We realize the right of the university to perform necessary animal experiments, but there is nothing too severe for a person who would devise or use such an apparatus as this. It is almost incredible to believe that a civilized human being would use an apparatus of this sort. It is an infernal machine."
Samuel S. Geyer, formerly in charge of the university kennels, said that the members of the faculty ordered the surgeons to remove all evidences of cruelty to animals when the legislature was acting on the vivesaction bill. He declared that after the measure was defeated and after the danger had passed the practices were continued.
CORNELL MEN'S EARNINGS.

The Harp's Origin.
Mary—I've just found out what was
the origin of the harp. John looking
up from his newspaper, Yes! Mary-
It was in the garden of Eden. Eve
ate the apple, and men have been harp-
ing about it ever since. Judge.
It's clogged with gravel and packed with sand.
So built and graded and laid and planned
It ruins horses and motorcars,
Keeping crops from the market,
Piles up debts on the farmer's place.
The old time road is a plain dis-
tress.
But the modern road is a different thing.
MAKING GOOD ROADS BY
BURNING UP POOR ONES
"Gumbo" Roads After Being Fired
Make Thoroughfare.
Blazing a trail of good roads through the south is not a figure of speech, but an actuality, for many miles of good roads are being made by setting fire to poor ones, the result being what is known as a baked clay road.
There are no poorer roads in all the United States than the "gumbo" roads of the south, gumbo being the name given a certain kind of mud or clay that is particularly sticky, clings tenuously, seems to have no bottom and will support any weight. Gumbo, however, contains a large percentage of organic matter which will be when dry, and as a result a road of this material properly prepared and set on fire emerges from the fiery ordeal as a perfectly good road and one, moreover, that stays so for a considerable period of time.
The process of converting a gumbo road into baked clay begins by plowing up the roadway and making ditches on the sides. Cordwood is laid in a sort of dooring across the furrows which are crosswise of the road. Great tumps of wood cover the floor, along with more wood loosely strewn about. Then a second floor of wood is laid and the whole covered with gumbo, tamped and rounded off. Fire is now set to the road, and the flames rushing through the furrows, which serve as fuses, ignite the wood. After the heat has driven the water in the gumbo this, too, ignites, and the actual cooking process is in full swing.
"It is more than merely drying out the gumbo," says C. H. Claudy in Motor. "It is a peculiarity of this gumbo that at low temperature it clinkers, and these clinkers when broken up are quite different from the original lumps of gumbo. The clinker is not only fairly hard, but if properly burned will not make mud when mixed with water. In this is the triumph of the buried clay road. When the fire has burned itself out the roadmaker has through mixture of dry clay and wood shaves, but a good depth of gumbo clinker, which the amputate proceeds to break into small pieces to spread evenly and finally to roll and compact into a real road." To all intents and purposes the road so made is a fine dry stretch of crumbled brick.
MAINTENANCE IMPORTANT.
Provision Should Be Made to Kee: Roads In Repair.
Hon. Logan Waller 1, director of the United States office on public roads, believes that there is nothing more important than maintaining roads after they are built. Commenting on this phase of road work, he said recently: Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of maintenance in connection with the work of improving the roads. The people in nearly all the states are filled with enthusiasm for road improvement and are spending enormous sums of money in the construction of super roads, and yet almost without exception they are making little provision to care for the roads after they are built. This is true not only in the various counties, but under many of our state highway departments.
To maintain the roads in good condition year after year requires a considerable annual outlay, but this outlay is infinitely less than the loss which must fall upon the people eventually if they allow their roads to go to utter ruin. The thing for all advocates of good roads to do is to urge continuous systematic maintenance and the setting aside every year of an amount per mile estimated by the engineer in charge to be sufficient for the proper maintenance of the road—a course which must make for economy and efficiency.

Wonders.
Ernest Thompson Sidon said, "I asked a little toy in one of my camps to tell me something wonderful about birds.
"Why,' said the little boy, 'how they come out of the eggs, that is wonderful.
"Now,' I went on, 'tell me something about them more wonderful still.
"Why,' he answered, 'it's more wonderful how they ever got into the eggs'—New York Tribune.
CANCER STUDY AT HARVARD.
A Special Investigation of the effect of Radium to Be Mold
Radium to Be Made. Cambridge, Mass. - The effect of radium in the treatment of cancer is to be made the subject of a special investigation under the direction of Dr. William Duane at the Harvard medical school.
For the present the experiments will be conducted in 'be Collis P. Huntington building, but as soon as possible a special building is to be constructed adjoining the medical school and devoted entirely to the work of radium investigation.
Dr Duane has studied in the laboratory of Mme. Curle, the discoverer of radium, and has been in touch also with the work of the Radium institute in London. The investigation is to be made under the supervision of the cancer commission of Harvard. Dr. E. E. Tyzyser, director of the commission, says that a group of investigators is being assembled to attack the problem of cancer treatment from various points of view.
WILL WED ONLY THE SOUND
Montclair Pastor Will Inist on a Certificate of Good Health.
Montclair, N. J. -The Rev. Henry E. Jackson, pastor of the Christian Union Cong-elegational church here has announced he will perform no more marriages without a certificate signed by the physician of the bride to be that the intended bridegroom is in perfect health.
At the coming annual meeting of Unity church the members will vote on the question as to whether the pastor, Rev. Edgar S. Wetra, shall perform the marriage ceremony without having first obtained from each of the contracting parties a medical certificate that they are physically sound.
The engages movement in Montclair is attracting considerable attention, interest in the subject having been aroused by recent addresses of Dr. Henry Smith Williams, Professor H. E. Jordan of the University of Virginia, Dean Summer of Chicago and Clifford Roe, also of Chicago.
SHE BEAT HER WAY ACROSS CONTINENT
Vence, Cal.-Miss Ethel Johnston, a beautiful young woman from Dayton, arrived here in begrimed and torn boy's costume to join her fance.
Miss Johnston and J. L. Perry had been sweethearts in Dayton. The youth moved west a short time ago, the better to prepare a home for his sweetheart, and was beginning to see the silver lined cloud when the flood swept down upon Dayton.
Miss Johnston was making her home with her父 in that city and suffered the loss of her only relative as well as her home.
She cut her hair short, donned boy's clothing and struck out with but a few dollars for the coast. She traveled almost entire distance on freight trains, in empty baggage, on flat cars, brake beans and bumpers, only occasionally being able to obtain the comfort of the speedy blind baggage.
Once, when she was discovered riding a brake beam, she was taken into the engine and made to stoke to earn her passage.
She reached Venice almost famished, but happy. She did not stop to change her toilet, but as soon as she learned the Perry residence ran all the way there and threw herself into her fance's arms. Perry and his mother have provided the girl with feminine attire, and the couple will go to San Francisco to be married.
CLARENCE DARROW "BROKE."
Labor Unions Asked to Raise Fund For McNamara's Lawyer.
Ottawa—Clarence S. Darrow surprised the Chicago Federation of Labor at a meeting here by walking in and taking a seat. He was given a rousing reception and addressed the federation on the child labor question. Later it developed that Darrow's fortune $180,000 had been swallowed up in a lawsuit. A letter was sent from President Charles H. Moyer of the Western Federation of Miners calling on all union labor organizations to subcribe to a fund to assist Darrow in his third trial. This move was indorsed by the federation, and collections will be made. The trial is set for June 16.
Uses Fire to Stop Dog Fight.
Bellefontaine, O.-Fire was used to separate fighting bulldogs after they had created a panic in the Big Four station and driven people scurrying from the platforms. It appeared impossible to separate the dogs, which seemed to be in a death clutch, until a commercial traveler, using his own cigar and that of another man, pressed the lighted ends against the noses of the two combatants.

Zion Presbyterian Church Dedication
Will Not Take Place Tomorrow
The beautiful church edifice on the corner of Farrington and St. Anthony avenues' which has sprung up almost like magic and was schedled for dedication tomorrow is doomed to a longer wait, as the parsonage adjoining is going so fast that it is thought best to be done at the same time. The church as it now stands is only the back part or what will be the church proper when completed and will be quite pretentious. So Rev. George W. Camp, the pastor, will public to "bide a wee." Due notice of the dedication will be given later.

account as possible of the Celebration

And, while not all are as beautiful as the columns were open for any who desired to use them to show the progress the Afro-Americans of Minnesota have made in the last half century.
