& Chicago cd Carrier Drew the Line al
Being Put in Order BY Woman.
One of the bod carriers at work on a
brick building out in the suburbs
climbed up to the first story Thursday.
Then he fell and the hod, the bricks and
the ladder fell on him. When the debris
had been pulled away the hod carrier
was lying face downward on the pave
ment stones senseless. There wasn't
drug store or a doctor within half mile.
A bricklayer put on his coat and tore for
tbe nearest patrol box Meantime the
bod carrier was lying there in pool OF
blood, apparently thinking about moth
ing in particular.
The boss was Tuning about, kicking
blocks of wood into the street and
swearing at the Iaziness of the police.
The big plasterers who could drive a
spike with their fists were standing
around as helpless as children. At this
time a young woman in blue coat came
across the street. She was pretty and
ROSY, with lot of yellow hair drawn up
tightly from her temples, and she had a
most decided look in her bright blue
eyes. She brushed the big fellows aside
and asked briskly, What's the trouble
here, menu
"One of the boys has busted himself
wide open" said the boss politely.
''Let me see," said the pretty girl,
dropping on her knees beside the hod
carrier. She took off a dainty kid glove
and with her little white hand felt the
mans skull.

looking up at the group around her.
Then she noticed the pool of blood ly-
| ing beside the mans right arm, and
whipping ont a pair of scissors she
ripped up the coat sleeve and the sleeve
of the flannel shirt.
Goodness she said. An artery has
been cut. Give me piece of Irvine
quick"
The boss pulled a piece of coarse string
from his coat pocket and handed it tc
the girl. She drew it around the man:
arm, made loop knot, thrust pencil
into the loop and twisted it until the
cord sank deep into the flesh.
"You hold this" she said to the boss
and the big man knelt down and grabbed
the ligature. Then she had some water
brought out. She washed the scalI
wound in jiffy. Then she cut among
the loose flesh with the scissors and will

Then she arose and viewed a pretty jol
of emergency surgery with reasonable
complacency. The patrol wagon an(

An African River.

The Webbe Shebeyi, ana frican river,
is one of the wonders of the Dark Con-
tinent. Although it is a large, rapid
flowing river, almost as large as the
Missouri, and flows for hundreds Of
miles through a fertile country, it never
reaches the sea. About thirty miles be-
fore its waters get to the point where
they should mingle with those of the In
dian ocean the whole stream sinks out
of sight into the sands of desert.-St.

The Man with a Dog.

A man with dog is not always to
be envied. l met Billy Gleason, heavy
villain by profession and a story teller
by occupation, on Broadway the other
day and he wanted to give me dog.
1t was very kind of him. 1t wasn't his
dog; it was Harry Mainhalls dog, lead
ing man of 1.-The Ensign"-Mainhall
not the dog.
"Just grub stake him for the summer"
said Billy. "He is a big st. Bernard
stands three feet high in his bare feet.
and eats only seven dollars worth
week; give him to you for his board
and clothes. Here's an order for him"
No. didn't want dog. wouldn't
give ten cents bunch for st. Demands
for my purposes. The man in town
with dog is to be pitied. Scanlan had
a lovely dog and fiat. The dog was a
Gordon setter, trained for the stage and
was worth 1000. The fat was worth
fifty dollars a month. The dog and the
fat went together during the summer
months. It took two servants-one for
the dog and one for the fiat. Poor Scan
Ian is now in an asylum. Gleason has
no grudge against me, beyond what can
be satisfied by compelling me to listen
to his stories. The stories are usually
good, but they can't be printed They
are too numerous and voluminous.
But he wanted to get rid of that dog;
so in short pilgrimage down Broadway
he mentioned the st. Bernard to various
people of his broad acquaintance. Most
of these, it is true. belonged to the "pro-
fesh." They had long summer of Eat
liberty" ahead, and the idea of taking a
st. Bernard into the family to board was
enough to paralyze them. A st. Ber-
nard can't live on free lunches because
he can't drink beer. Some wanted to
know if they could eat him, others
whether he could be farmed out, others
whether they got bonus and could
poison the dog when they had spent the
money.
Some were willing to take him if he
were an English pug, or a spaniel, or a
setter, or something else. But Billy very
properly refused to offer the St. Bernard
as anything less great and noble than he
really is.-New York Herald.

Dangerous symptoms.

The indisposition caused by overmuch
brain work, or a too prolonged attention
to business, is very insidious in its ad-
vance. When once fairly established,
its symptoms are patent enough to the
invalid, and rest then becomes impera-
tive. In fact, he is knocked out of
time" so to speak, and wishes then he
had noted his failing powers before, and
laid down his pen or closed his ledger.
When, then, is the rest cure Indicated
Probably one of the earliest signs is
slight dyspepsia, which cannot be at
tributed to errors in diet, want of fresh
air, etc. 1t is a nervous kind Of atomic
dyspepsia, sometimes combined with
acidity from liver sympathy. There is
not the same relish for food, and so re-
lief from this state is sought for in
piquant relishes, wine or tea.
Another symptom is an uneasy or tired
feeling about the head, fullness it may
be, or sleeplessness and stupidity, es-
pecially after eating. The brow is soften
hot, so is the top Of the head, and the
hand is pressed YEARLY across the eyes.
Life begins to lose its brightness, then
things begin to go trifie wrong, and
there are moments of peevishness and
irritability. Lowness of spirits is sue
ceeded by want of sleep.
There is danger ahead, if not indeed
close at hand. and happy is he who sees
the signal in time, say most emphat-
ically in time. for, effective though the
rest cure may be, there is point of
divergence from the path of health. be-
yond which no one can go with the
slightest hopes of return or recovery.
| pray none of my readers may ever
reach this point.-Cassel's Family Doc.

The Ecuador commissioners have had
constructed fac simile of the famous
palace Of the Inca Perca, the ruins OF
which stand near the city of Quito, and
will exhibit it at the fair.
The horticultural display at the
Worlds fair will be bewildering in ex.
tent and marvellous in beauty. The 'ex-
hibit will possess great scientific and
educational value. but to the ordinary
visitor its ornamental features will be
the most striking.

Captain Dave Silver.

Everybody who took a trip on the
Missouri dozen or twenty years ago
remembers Captain Dave Silver, one of
the handsomest men that ever guided
the destinies OF those old timers. Cap
tain Silver is still alive-he is some
where in the south. i think But wher-
ever he is, he is still the courtly, stately
figure that used to stand forward and
bow to the passengers leaving the boat
at Jefferson City, St Joe, Omaha or
Kansas City-Westport Landing it was
then. They all knew young, handsome
Dave Silver-they all liked to ride ON
his boat. 1t was the Lucas, l think, one
of the fastest that ever rode the river.
She wore the champions deer horns on
the pilot house for years.
1t was hard ON Captain Silver for all
of the floating palaces to pass out of the
river forever, but he had another mis-
fortune. He had brother. How he
loved him! They were inseparable. One
day they were standing near the rail of
big boat just as she was pushing off.
The brother leaned forward bit, the
rail broke, and before Captain Dave
could catch him the man had fallen into
the water. The boat swung around at
that instant and poor Silver was dragged
under the wheel
''Its joel" gasped Captain Dave. That
was all he said. He had seen his broth
er go under the vicious paddles, and he
fell into partial faint. That was one
of the reasons that this tall, handsome
man, with the elegant manner and gray
hair and beard, left the Missouri for the
low banked streams of the far south

Appearance. Are Deceptive.

He looked every inch the hog, but he
wasn't.
He sat inside Cottage Grove avenue
car, while two women and a man stood
just in front of him. One woman held
on to a strap, while the other wabbled
about in manner very disconcerting to
man who was sitting.
CHANGING up uneasily he discovered
the cause. The man who was standing
was grasping two straps in one hand.
The man who was sitting may have
resembled the street car hog, but, as we
have said, he wasn't, not by long shot.
Reaching up, he touched the man ON
the shoulder.

In Doctor Persons description of life
in the southwest as he saw it many years
ago-"before the war"-he speaks often
of the peculiar turns of speech there
prevalent. He was once present at an
ecclesiastical meeting, where motions
were piled upon each other until mat
tiers were in a frightful muddle. Final
ly the moderator was appealed to for a
decision.

siding officer thus appealed to, and lift

the words, but he could not help seeing
that the decision was perfectly clear and
satisfactory to the assembly.

Auroras Forty Miles High.


The scientists of the Royal Danish
academy have made public the results
of some interesting experiments, which
were conducted for the sole purpose of
ascertaining the exact, or at any rate
the approximate, height of the aurora
borealis. At Godthaab M. Adam Paul
sen, with two theodolites situated only
four miles apart, found that the height
of different auroral displays varied from
one to forty milesl Near Cape Fare
well, with a base line of three-fourths
of a mile in length, the best calcula-
tons obtainable placed different aurora
at from one to ten miles in height; at
Spitzbergen it was shown that they
range from a height of one-third of a
mile to eighteen miles.
In this case it will not prove uninter-
esting to mention some of the remark
bic opinions entertained by the early ex-
perimenters in this line. Flogel esti-
mated the height of the various aurore
observed by him at from 80 to 80 miles
above the earth; Reimann found that
one observed by him was at least 500
miles high, and Nordenskjold's earlier
deductions gave such phenomena an av-
erage height of 1875 miles. Then Leem-
strome came forward with the announce
ment that he had taken notes and OIL.
