The world is now astOnished at the

the facts are more widely known of the
measurelesS resources from which it
has to draw as a basis of growth, and
how far it is uow behind the country
already developed that is tributary to
it. how it has been held back by d
tremendous combination of money

these facts aren,ore widely known and

Columbia Missouri Democrat; Supe-
rior is fast becoming the commercial
depot for all the north vest trade. The
figures given of the shipments at SUI
pcrior are startling and the growth Of
the town is phenomenal. 1t is but i've
years old and contains 10000 people.
AS showing the versatility Of the edit

of Wild Amin is.
Tie late Frank Ives Erayne Of the
blood and thunder drama had u won
derf'I knack in managing the animals
that appeared on the stage with him.
TO inquirers who wondered how he
did it he always replied that the secret
lay in his GOODNESS in time of danger and
in his presence OF mind. He called it
nerve. Eut there was something
else in Frayne besides nerve. His an
imals We're always III his thoughts. and
while be ruled them with rod of iron
they obcycd him because he instinct
lively knew when to be hard and when
to be gentle. IN summer, on his farm
near Madison. y. j. he had many of
his wild animals tied TO the. posts of
the hoard fence. Any plea sant day
Frayne might be seen walking along
the fence pctting or feeding two or
three bears. some monkeys and hyenas,
and other members OF his curious hap
Ply family strung ut intervals in front
of the house. Frayne was very proud
of Old Duke, or BOD lngcrSoll, as his
stage name went. the lion that killed
his tlydcSdalc stallion foHr years ago
1t was Frayre's habit TO carry in his
pocket pictures of Old Duke, which he
gave to his frien Is at the conclusion
of story how Old Duke had killed
three men at one blow each with his
paw. The story was founded on fact.
Frayne had photo graphs also of Old
Duke lying down with "a bantam hen
perching on his ma1e. The hen and
lion were friends for several years.
No one but Fraync had ever been able
to conquer Old Duke.

They Must Cultivate the Gift Feeiinsly

Music viii ever be the blind mans
ruling passion, bat that it may be a
blessing to him and not a curse he
must be taught H. know. to master
and to love only that OF the purest
and best kind. What he does
he must be able to do well Or the
gift will be fatal. says the Edinburgh
Review He must learn not merely to
scrape fiddle in Il more or less eX-
aspcrating fashion or blow into cor
net with painful success. 50 Us to gain
admission into the school band. but to
do far more and far better, or within j
wear of his leaving ool-aWay IN
the country village or alone in the
London ga,ret-the cunning of his
hand will fail him and his music will
be worse than useless. People Will
say: 1T is very clever for blind
man, " but there it en- Is and such words
will not even provide bread and cheese
for day. His descent into the streets
is not fa. off. and unless he has learned
to make Il basket or Il mat he viii soon
become one Of the forlorn Ministries
who, says Mayhew, "bchind a string
and IA dog haunt the curbstonc and fill
the ears of the solroWful with strains
of still greater sorrow" The higher
sense OF true music is gone from him.
and the want Of this sense Is TO melody
what the loss Of fragrance and coior
would be to flowers o. Of color to the
sunset sky And of all this lost he Is
at last unconscious.
