amuse and instruct his little grand
son, Henry @. Zoller They are so
neatly put and contain such a valua-

them for the benefit of any little folks
who care to study them. They might
be read with profit in all the schools

Fourteen when they're all in place
How many bones in the human head?
Eight, my child, as I have often said.
How many bones IN the human ear?
Three in each as they help to hear
How many bones in the human spine?
Twenty-six, like a climbing vine.
How many bones in the human chest?
Twenty -four ribs and two of the breast
How many bones in the shoulder bind?
Two in each, one BEFORE one behind.
How many bones in the human arm?
In each arm one, two in each forearm.
How many bones in the human wrist?
Eight in each, il none are missed.
How many bones in the palm of the handi
Five in each, for this demand
How many bones in the fingers ten?
Twenty eight and by joints they bend.
How many bones in the human hip?
One in each-like a dish they dip.
How many bones in the human thigh?
One in each, and deep they lie.
How many bones in the human knees?
One in each. the knee pan please.
How many bones in the leg from the knee!
two in each we can plainly see.
How many bones in the ankle strong?
Seven in each, but none are long.
How many bones in the ball of the foot?
Five in each, as the palms are put.
How many bones in the toes half a score?
Twenty-eight, and there are no more.
And now together all these you fix,
And they count in the body two hundred
and six.
We also have in the human mouth,
Of upper and under, thirty two teeth.
And we now and then find bone, should
think,
That forms on joint. or to fill up chink,
A sesamoid bone is the name that we call.
And now we may rest, for we've told them all.

Company.
The Dynamite Theory Rejected and the
Vessel Believed to Have Col
lided With An Iceberg.
Reasonable Hope Entertained that All O
Most of the Passengers and
Crew Are Safe.

LONDON, May 5.-No tidings of the
missing steamer, State of Florida, have
been received to-day, 1t is still hoped
that she may be ahoat, although badly
disabled. There was no storm of suni-
cient strength to founder an ocean-going
steamer, although gale may have car
ried off her boats, crippled her screw or
disabled her engines. 1t is difficult for
steamship men to believe that she has
been lost. The iceberg theory is adj
vanced, but as the State of Florida was
divided into five water-tight compart-
ments it is believed that even though her
forward bulk-head was crushed in she
would still be able to keep on her
course at a slow rate of speed.
If she was struck amidships, as the
City of Brussels was in Liverpool
Bay, she would have sunk, however, as
the middle compartment doors on ocean
steamers are seldom secured as the law
provides.
The dynamite story is not seriously
considered here, 1t was started by Il sen.
sational evening paper, but the morn.
ing papers, even the Times, denounced il
as cruel canard, calculated to arouse
public animosity against the Irish people

ARRAY Between Farmers.

MEXTco, Mo, May 5.-News was re-
ceiyed here this noon of very serious af-
fray between two farmers who live east
OF here, Yesterday morning, about nine
O'Clock James f. Crews and John Petit,
living on adjoining farms, about two
miles from Bush Hill, small station on
the Chicago & Alton Railway, had dilll.
Guilty in which Petit had his
left eye knocked entirely out,
and was otherwise dangerously
hurt by club in the hands of Crews.
The difficulty grew out of question
asked Crews by Petit relative to the
poisoning of some stock, when Crews
answered by the club with almost deadly
effect. DIR. w. C. Pipino of this city was
called down to attend the injured man.
1t is thought that the blows will probably
cause his death. Sheriff Woodward has
writ for Crews arrest

AN HONEST MANS GRIP.
It is Too Hearty to be Pleasant to 9
Rogue.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, May 5.-This evening
PoSt-DiSpatch contains the following. Mr..
Giles +, Filley, the President of the Ex-
cesior Manufacturing Company, has just
got back to town from visit to Southern
California, looking hale and hearty, and
rcplcte with interesting experiences, not
the least enjoyable of which are embodied
in his narrative OF personal experiences
with the wild Western bunko steerer,
Mr.. Filley's first acquaintance with the
inSidious steerer was made at Los Angeles,
Col, where II well-dressed and amiable
young man, though representing himself
as interested in the same business as Mr.
Filley, secured his company for short
time and took HIM into what looked like a
reputable business house, but doomed up as
bunko den after they entered it. Mr.
Filey'S attention was there called to a
lottery scheme, but he politely wished the
gentleman present good-morning and van
iShcd The story which the stalwart old
gentleman tells of his encounter with
steerer in Denver, Col, is even more
amusing 81 was met on the street
there one morning. he said, "by a slight,
Wel-dreSsed young man, who approached
me with extended hand and said: Good
morning, MIR. Jackson. How are things
in Chicago?" understood at once what
his game was, so took his hand in mine,
and as closed in on his delicate white
fingers | remarked: My friend, you
are mistaken. Pm not Mr.. Jackson, and
| don't come from Chicago The
young man started to withdraw his
hand, but my inclinations We're too
friendly to allow him TO do so, and as |
began closing in tighter on those taper
fingers, he turned red and remarked, Il
beg your pardon. Iye made mistake
and made another effort to escape. My
grip frightened, however, and the delicate
little bones of the bunco dude began TO
crackle as | kept closing in on his nice
little hand. The pcrspiration broke out
all over his face, and he stood
first on one foot then ON the other as he
begged to assure me once more that
he had made a mistake. Here | gave the
crank another turn and the little dude
gave howl of pain after which released
him and he went off examining his hand
with such Woful cOuntenance that |
couldn't help laughing out loud, That
was my only experience with bunko men
in Denver" Tofully appreciate the force
of Mr. Filley's capital story it must be
remembered that he has been all of his
life in the stove business, and the grip of
his right hand is that of almost forty-viCc
power.
