Wounded.
CRAWLING, MICH, September "A
terrible accident occurred on the Blodgett
& Byrnes logging railroad, eight miles from

While the cars at the top of the grade were
being loaded, one car got away from the
men and ran down the grade into the en-
CINE. The engineer, fireman and brake
man had just finished loading the tender
and got into the engine to start back when
the car struck. The engine and tender
were almost instantly destroyed and Ern-

side the track with log lying on him and
the hole filed with water. The fireman

The Great Geyser in Yellowstone Park
Breaks the Impressive silence.
CINNAEAR, Mon, September ON
Friday and Saturday visitors to the lel-
low stone Park who happened to be i'll the
vicinity of the Fire Hole Basin witnessed
II rare spectacle. The Excelsior Geyser,
situated in HELPS Half-Acre, undoubtedly
the most powerful geyser in the world,
and which had been in a state Of qules-
cence for over four years, suddenly broke
out about 3 o'clock Friday afternoon and
continued to play for forty-eight hours.
The witness pronounced it the grandest
and most awe-aSpiring display ever
beheld. The spOutings were heard
several miles distant, while the earth
in the immediate vicinity was violently
shocked as if by an earthquake. The noise
of the escaping steam and the internal
rumbling was deatening. An immense
body of water. accompanied by steam, was
projected To an altitude of about 300 feet,
and the Fire Hole river, which Is only u
few rods distant, soon became 4 torrent OF
boiling water. The supply was kept up
with gradually decreasing force until late
Saturday. when the Excelsior went back
TO its normal state. As il is an exceedingly
erratic geyser, it may remain inactive for
wears.

DISMISS THE COWS.
EVERY FAMILY CAN NOW MAKE ITS OWN
ARTIFICIAL MILK.
ElterprSing San Francisco Men Flooding the Country
With Recipes for Turning out the Lactsal-
Find By Wholesale.

CHICAGO, September 2.-For several
weeks past several men have been here
from San Francisco selling recipes for
making artificial milk. One milk dealer
who was visited says that we'll dressed
man as bediamonded as gambler in luck,
drove up before his shop and came in
bearing two large glass jars and a bottle of
turbid hquOr Of the color OF stale beer.
placing these on the counter, he asked for
about two quarts OF milk. This being
supplied, he filled one of the jars with it
and asked the young man to put 4 label or
mark on the jar so he
WOULD KNOW IT AGAIN.
Then he poured about half that quantity
of milk into the other jar and added about
two tablespoonful of the liquid in the
bottle Then he filled the jar up with
water, and placed the mixture alongside
the Jar of genuine milk on the counter
When the position of the jars was changed
and the label hidden the expert milk
dealer found it impossible to tell which
Jar held the genuine milk and which the
adulterated. In taste and appearance the
milk in each was exactly alike.
There is in that bottle the concentrated
parts OF everything that goes to make milk
in COW" said the man, and he gulped a
mouthful of the liquid to show that it
CONTAINED NOTHING INJURIOUS.
Now, want you 10 just let those two
jars remain as they are on one of your
shelves here until tomorrow, SO you can
see how the cream pans out. Another
thing you might do il you like-yOu might
send Il sample of that milk of mine to an
analytical chemist and hear what he says
about it. There's not chemist in the
world can tell that from pure cows milk. >
When the man called the next day there
was beautiful layer OF cream on both
jars of milk. Very little difference was
perceptible, but rs far rs could be seen the
adulterated milk had the most cream,
while the skinned fluid seemed equally
rs good as the other.
The dairyman would not purchase the
receipt, but it has been stated that rs high
