During a small tenement house fire on
the East side this week there was a
thrilling incident that was not chron-
icled at the time. 1t occurred at q rear
window IN the second story. The flames
had been ex~tinguished with trifing
damage, but the house was full of
smoke.
Suddenly a woman tottered to the
ODen window. ln her arms she held a
bundle tightly ctasped to her bosom. 1t
was in white wrappings. Quickly the
crowd of people i'll the yard below saw
the woman Great clouds Of smoke
whirled about her head in suffocating
volumes, and the crowd called upon her
to jump.
She heSitated, but extended the bun
die at arms length, from which at that
moment there came 4 faint cry. 1t was
a baby'S voice.
Save my child" implored the woman.
Instantly a blanket was procured and
strong men held the corners.

With her face averted the agoniZed
and imperiled mother let the baby fall.
Down the little one Huttered like a
white-winged wounded bird. with the
despairing cry of mamma" upon its
lips. Lightly it strGck the blanket. and
a moment later it was taken up safe and
sound, but Sobbing, by a motherly-look-
ing woman IN the throng.
1t required but a few minutes to raise
a ladder and rescue the Self-sacrificing
mother from her periIoGs position and
restore her dimpled darling to her arms.
This touching rescue was loudly
cheered by the sympathetic spectators.

Logging Progressing FavOrably.

Logging Progressing F~avOrably.
Providing soft weather continues, the
proposed ski tournament at Lily lake

or at least postponed for a few days.

busy yesterday erecting the ''ShOot"
and leyeling the track. Peder Gaalaas.

is a sufficient amount of snow left for

pOstponement. A large number of ski
runner from st. Paul. Minneapolis,
Ispenning, Mich, and other cities are
expected to take part in the exercises,
and the local club has made arrange
mentS to entertain at least 800 guests.
The past week was a profitable II in
logging circles and a large amount of
hauling was done in the Northern
pineries. A prominent lumberman re-
marked yesterday that unless a cold
snap comes within the next day OF two
the work would have to be abandoned.
The roads in the pineries are worn and
a thaw results disastrously. Several of
the mills i'm and near this city are being
repaired and the mill men are looking
forward to a prosperous season. At the
South Still water dock yards the new
steamer which is being constructed for
r. j. Wheeler g. Co. will Don be COM

western part of the city. and was at
tended by DR.. b. j. Merrill.

Judge FL. r. Murdoch will be held this

cises will consist principally in short

Never hear of plumpers?" asked a
lady friend of mine the other day.
NO." said [. "Wha new feminine
device is this, for goodness sake?"
well" she ~replied-we were calling
at the time at the house of a mutual
friend-"iust you notice Miss - when
she comes down stairs and tell me if you
notice anything strange OF remarkable
i'll her appearance"
The Miss - referred to, be it said,
is a tall and somewhat angular young
woman of uncertain age, but who is
possessed OF a considerable degree of
personal vanity and a more than ordi-
nary desire to appear at her very best
upon any and all occasions.
In a few moments she appeared, and,
after greeting us cordially, we entered
iuto a general conversation. Nothing
very remarkable about her. thought l.
"Well," said | to my lady friend.
after our departure, Il had scanned
Miss - pretty closely, but failed to
notice anything worth commenting
upon i'll her appearance. She talked as
if she had something in her mouth"
l was interrupted at this point by a
peal of laughter.
"Why, what on earth arc you laugh
ing at?!'' said |. land. by the way" L
asked. Ibid it not strike you that Miss
- is growing somewhat stouter? Her
face seems to be somewhat plumper-"
There" interrupted my friend,
''now you have it. Miss - had
%'plumperS' i'll her mouth" To my look
of inquiry and establishment she re-
sponded:
"Plumpers. you see. are small, round
shaped affairs like a dolls saucer. They
are made of rubber, and when held in
place in the mouth they cause a wom-
ans cheeks to become plump and round.
When ladies have lost some of their
teeth %plumpers come into play; pre-
vents their jaws from becoming lantern
shaped or their features from being
angular"
"Heavens and EARTH" said [. "What
will the feminine mind conceive of
neXt?"
ooh" she responded, "there are lots
of things about feminine attire that you
have not yet heard Of"

Beneficial Changes.
To the Editor of the Globe.
In your recent editorial commenting
on the street car service you ''hit the
nail on the head" [ am a West slider,
and only this very morning a car
passed me while | was no more than 100
feet from the corner. and shouted and

to stop, but it went on. True. the car
was crowded worse than a cattle car.
and the conductor may not have noticed
me. Then, after waiting patiently
twenty minutes. | decided to save my
nickel and walked. Now it seems to
me but just if the proper authorities
would pass some law to enforce Mr..
Lowry to run cars at regular intervals,
say of seven minutes. and if our West
side representative and senator MeSsrS.
bearing and Lienau. would take some
interest in this matter they would GER
tainiy be highly credited for it by their
constituents.
Another change in my opinion should
be enforced-to have the cars run from
each end of the line until midnight. In
every large city that | have lived this is
done, and in some cities they run all
night. | understand Mr.. Lowry is will
ing to increase the number of cars, but
the mere promise will not do. He
should be forced to do so in reasonable
time. J. ID. B.

none of them ever awOke so much sad
sympathy as one which Prof. Gallaudet
related the other day. The professor
has a favorite pupil, a little deaf mute
boy who is exceptionally bright. Mr..
Gallaudet asked him il he knew the
story OF George Washington and the
cherry tree. With his nimble fingers
the little one said he did. and then he
proceeded to repeat it. The noiseless
gesticulations continued until the
boy had informed the professor of the
elder WashingtOn's discovery of the
mutilated tree and of his quest for the
mutilator. when Georges father
asked him who hacked bis favorite

"Where do you get your authority for

nothing of speech, he needed his right
hand to tell his father that he cut the

MIR. UPPER KEATS.

There is a little poet who is quite a friend of
mine,
And the thoughts that he confdes to me are
really very fine.
But, with all his wondrous genius, he can
never write a line,
Though he feels that he Il accomplish great
things may be,
If it didn't always happen when he goes up
up stairs to think.
Before he has a chance to dip his pen into
the ink,
His little wife viii holloa up, and cause his
heart to sink,
Mr.. Topper Keats. come down and mind
the baby!"
Not a day but what she calls him, to his in
finite disgust,
While his ink is all a-dryiGg, and his pens
are filed with rust;
And he'd rather not obey her, but the fact is
that he must;
So don't forget the name I've ted, for
may be,
You will see the richest honors beaped upon
it. some fine day,
When the wee disturber of his peace is Old
enough to play,
And his little wife no longer runs ont in the
hall to say:
Mr.. Topper Keats, come down and mind
the baby!"

Her Father,

The faith of little children in their
fathers and mothers is one of the most
beautiful things in the world, butits
manifestations sometimes provoke the
involuntary smile. The New York
Tribune reports that a Broadway car
ran into the rear end of an express
wagon with such force as to tip it COM
pletely over. A little child about five
years old was on the seat with the
driver.
The man was pitched head first upon
the sidewalk, but landed on his hands
and knees, and received only a few
slight bruises. The child, who chung to
the seat. fell underneath the wagon.
Fortunately the high seat prevented the
weight OF the truck from falling on her,
and she was drawn from under the
wagon box uninjured.
One of the bystanders, as he stopped
to brush her dress, asked if she was
hurt.
"Oh. no." said the little girl, my
papa wouldn't let me get hurt"
