THE DEPOT ESCAPED.
Park Employees Have a Lively Strugg
with a Rrush Fire

Park Employees Have a Lively Struggle
with Brush Fire.
Shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon fire broke out in the dry brush back
of the depot Of the Park and Ocean Beach
Railroad at the end of the Haight-street
cable line For time it looked as il the
flames would attack the dor OF, and conSid-
cradle excitement prevailed among the
thousand people present. As it was large
part Of the fence was burned and the sides
of the depot badly scorched.
The brush at this point is very thick and
exceedingly dry. Several acres of it were
consumed. The burning material made
such a volume of smoke tn at people from
the park and the baseball grounds rushed
to the depot to learn the cause the smoke
being too large in volume to be attributed to
brush.
As soon as the fire was discovered the
railroad men and park employees set to work,
and after twenty minutes lively fight ex-
tinguished the blaze when it had got to
within Il few feet of Park Officer Thomp-
sons house. which is situated on one side
of the depot.
The cause of the fire was placed at the
door of the small boys, who cOngregate there
to smoke cigarettes while the baseball
games are in progress.
1t was stated that the railroad company
Will have all the brush back of the depot
cleared away Immediately in order to pre-
vent return Of the danger.

HOW WE GROW OLD.

Deteriorations of the Secrotions Of the
.ssaeA Body.
Anatomical researches respecting the
influence of age upon the bodily tissues,
have in recent years revealed some very
interesting and important facts. 1t has
been observed that in consequence Of
advancing age. after middle life the
capillary vessels of the body gradually
diminish in number, through the with
ering and obliteration of many Of these
small vessels, until, in advancing age,
the number of capillaries, and hence
he area, of this portion of the circu.
lation is very greatly diminished. An
other change also begins after middle
life, which is of still greater impor-
lance. Up to about the age Of forty
years, the pulmonary artery, the large
vessel which carries the blood from the
heart to the lungs, is larger than tho
aorta, the vessel by which the blood is
distributed to the body in general The
consequence of this excess in size OF
the pulmonary artery over the aorta, u
q high blood pressure in the lungs, and
consequently more complete purifca,
ton OF the blood from its gaseous i'm.
purities than would otherwise occur
After middle life, the pulmonary artery
decreases in size, and the aorta in.
creases. This fact, together with the
increased resistance which the blood
meets in consequence Of the diminished
capacity of the pulmonary vessels, re-
suits in gradually increasing accumu
Ilation Of carbonic acid gas in the blood,
which reacts upon every organ and tbs
sue in the body, lessening It's activity
and causing deterioration Of every Sc.

FIRST AMERICAN ANARCHIST.
James Few's Uprising to Overthrow Gov
orn.nent In Colonial noys

James Few's Uprising to Overthrow Gov
eminent in Colonial Days.
There is a general impression that
the Anarchist is a foreign Importation
AS matter of fact, the first Anarct :Gt
in the United States was an American
of English ancestry, and he lived a
very long while ago as we Americans
reckon history.
James Few was his name. He was
a thrifty, Industrious carpenter, born
in South Carolina about the middle of
the last century. His parents were
simple, honest people, and he was
their only child. AS he grew up he
became their support. When James
Few had grown to manhood there
Carolina. He was Gov Tryon.
He had way of clarping on extra
taxes upon every preteSt, which was
something the simple people of the
colony could not appreciate. In fact,
it became very difficult for them to get
enough to eat, and drinking was out of
the question if they were to paw the
taxes. Now, you may sometimes re-
duce a mans rations and he may not
hurtfully object, but wiseacres let a
mans propensity for drink severely
alone, or else prepare for squalls
To James Few the conduct of Tryon
seemed an outrage. He had no book
knowledge of any sort, but few years
later a great many others, who did have
a great deal of knowledge, agreed with
him and started the great revolution
that founded the United States.
But the first anarch went further. 1t
seemed to him that law was the cause
of all the trouble. He thought if all
the governors were abolished the peo
pie would get along very nicely them
selves They need no government to
collect taxes; in fact there should be
no taxes He did not stop with think
ing. He talked with his companions at
his work bench until he had won over
a great many of them.
One day friend of Gov. Tryon' S
was brought before him accused of
several heinious offenses The gov
ernor made farce of his punishment
by ordering the prisoner to pay fine
of one penny for each offense. This
was the last straw. The good loyal
people became indignant. James Few
and his companions felt that the oppor-
tunity had come to test their theory.
They armed themselves and set about
capturing the governor. But rumor
Of the proposed uprising reached the
capital. Summary measures We're
taken. The troops were called out and
the followers of James Few fell like
the summer grass. James Few him
self was captured and without even
the farce of a trial was hanged to a
forest tree.
The people at once dispersed, but the
seeds of the great revolution Werc
sown and few years later grew up
and overturned the old form of govern
ment.
But poor James Few was not the
only one who suffered from his I'M
selfish desire to help his fellows. The
little property which his domestic
virtues had enabled him to accumulate
was confscated and his aged parents
were obliged to end their days in an
almshouse.-N. Y. World.

the common red foxes, they could not
get even smell of the silver gray.
Meantime John Turkey attended
quietly to his traps, and kept his
hounds off the runs.
THE fellow was shy and sensitive,
and sensed the feeling that had bee n
worked up over the silver gray so
| strongly that, to avoid meeting white
folks. he had put off going to town
for ammunition until he was nearly
| destitute of that necessity.
"As he was about to start out one
| morning to make the usual rounds of
his traps he noticed that his powder
horn was almost dry, and after sling
ing it over his shoulder he poured its
! contents out into the palm of his hand
to make sure that he had enough for
emergencies on his morning trip, after
which he planned to go to the settle
ment. There was just enough for four
good charges.
After visiting several traps and re-
lievinG them of the mink, otter and
muskrats which they contained, Turkey
trudged silently on until he canght
sight of fine buck through the brush.
1t was at long range, but he fired. The
buck dropped his white flag sure
sign that he was wounded, and sped
down the runway towards swift-run-
ming creek, half mile away. Turkey
pressed on after the deer and caught a
glimpse of it as it lodged out of the
runway and took course which flee
ing deer only took when they scented
hunters in waiting for them where the
runway crossed the creek. As he was
practically certain of the route which
the buck would take, and where he
would find it if the wound proved fatal,
Turkey decided to first visit his other
traps across the creek, and then look
after his wounded deer. He was espe-
cially anxious about one particular
trap, which he believed was planted at
the entrance to the den OF the silver
gray.
There was always likely to be game
of some kind at the creek, and so the
half-breed, always cautious and silent
Of step, approached the stream with
true Indian stealth.
Gas he scanned the banks for some
sign of life his heart gave leap. Could
it be true that against the background
of the opposite bank he saw a small
silvery object gliding from bush to
bush toward the water? Yes; he could
not doubt his eyes. It was the silver
gray. Turkey secured good rest
against the body of a tree and waited
for the fox to halt 1t soon did so,
with one foot lifted and ears perked
sharply forward, to catch the faintest
sound ere it should trust itself to drink.
Turkey took as deliberate aim as
his excitement would permit and fred
THE fox leaped high and then
limped away in the direction of Tur-
keys trap as fast as its wounds would
let it.
1.-THE hunter hastily reloaded his rifle
and pressed on. He had only one
charge more of powder in his horn.
What if the lack Of more would cost
him his game?
He was swiftly striding down the
runway, thinking Of nothing but the
silver-gray, and had almost reached a
huge old tree that overhung the creek

ABOUT PILLOWS
Some Objections to Those in Use iu This
Country.

Some Objections to Those in Use i'll This
Country.
The use of pillow is not matter of
mere blind usage. 1t has physiolog-
zeal basis We sleep, for the most
part, on the side, and without pillow
the head would be uncomfortably and
harmfully lower than the body.
| 1t will be remembered that Jacob.
when fleeing from Esau, took stone
for pillow. He needed something
for the purpose, and nothing better
than a stone presented itself. Such
! practices are common in Africa at the
present day. Bishop Taylor probably
found it convenient, if not necessary,
to take up with them in his travels in
that land; for on his return to this
country he rejected the soft pillows of
his friendly hosts, and, sometimes
least, substituted one of books.
Some people rest the neck instead
the head on hard pillows. In Afric,
extraordinary headgears make this
practice necessary, and many civ
ilized woman has been compel; ed by a
somewhat similar couture to forego
both the pillow and the recvmbent
posture.
a consideration of the physiological
reason for pillows will suggest their
proper thickness. They should merely
bring the head to natural level Some
pillows are much too thick. BY bend
! ing the neck unduly, they interfere
with the outflow of the venous blood
from the head. The pillow that Just
fills up the space above the shoulder
best suits its end.
Again, pillows of feather are obiec-
tionable. While they furnish the
needed support for the head, they are
too heating, as they have remarkable
capacity for holding and astssmulating
! heat
| 1t should be remembered that more
blood, and hence more heat, goes to
the head than to any other part of the
body. Head-heating pillows ere against
the wholesome maxim: Keep the feet
warm, but the head COOL There is
nothing better than the han pillow.
Further, the pillow is fer che head,
nor for the shoulders. To rest the
shoulders on the pillow defeats the very
end for which it is used
Finally, special care should be taken
of infants in this matter. We have
seen their heads sunken daep in the
softest and thickest Of pillows, and
their faces, as a natural c.nsequence.

hat he was himself as much 1rdian as

that he was himself as much Indian as
white.
II took the same view of the affair
and turned Turkey over to the chief and
his council of braves.
They despised Whipped Dog as
thoroughly as did the white trappers
who used him rs secret tool; and they
evidently admired Turkey for his skill
in dispatching the panthers and cap
turing the silver gray doubtless
for avcnging the sneaking theft of his
dearly earned pelt.
The Indian council decreed that the
only penalty which Turkey should pay
for his assassination of Whipped Dog
was to keep within certain limits,
which gave him hunting ground of
some miles in extent. Within these
limits he was safe. To go beyond them
was death.
''He was known, far and near,
throughout all western New York as
John Turkey, the prescribed man, who
killed the panthers. And few men
stopped for any length of time in the
little town from which Rochester
sprung without hearing John Turkeys
story. 1t was u town attraction"

stopped him. He knew what it was.
A hasty glance into the limbs of the
tree showed him panther just ready
to pcunce down upon him as it would
,, have done upon deer coming to water.
He made a quick aim for the panthers
breast and fred. The brute fell, shot
through the heart. 1t had become sec
ond nature for Turkey to always re-
load as soon as his gun was discharged,
SO he poured his charge of powder into
his rifle, rammed ball down after it
| and fixed the printing, ready for an
other shot.
THE hunters instinct to look for the
mate of any dangerous animal which
he had killed caused him to glance
| again into the tree. There was the fe-
male panther, crouching close to a
limb and slowly creeping to a point
where she could spring upon him. Life
and death depended upon the accuracy
! of his aim.
ITO miss fire or merely wound the
| female panther would have been to fall
| under the attack of the most ferocious
brute which a hunter can encounter
! an attack from which few have es-
capped
'But his aim was as sure and the
brute was as dead as it's mate when it
struck the ground.
Turkey did not believe that there
| were any more Of the panther family
about, but be did not think best to lin
ger long to see, now that his ammuni-
| ton was exhausted. So he fastened to
the trap in which he hoped to find the
| wounded fox, as it was set directly in
| the mouth of the hole which he be-
lieved the silver gray frequented. In
| it's disabled condition the fox would
| hardly be able to avoid springing the
trap, which it had hitherto so skillfully
escaped.
"On reaching the trap he found that
1T had been sprung, but there was no
fox in it, although collection of sill
! ver-gray hairs were stuck to its steel
] jaws. To Turkeys skilled eyes, the
1 ground about showed signs of moe
casined footsteps. He mistrusted that

spying upon him fo- the jealous white
trappers was commonly called, had

full instinct in Turkey and he set out in
search of the supposed culprit.
in less than half an hour he over
took Whipped Dog, who had the fresh
pelt.of the silver gray in his hand.
Whipped Dog at first drew his gun
as if to fire, but evidently changed his
mind and concluded to try the strength
of bold denial
Give me that pelt; it's mine,' Tur-
key demanded.
It's mine. / shot it, growled
Whipped Dog.
Turkey was in for no arguing.
Selling the Indians gun, he dealt
