Though the war of 1912 has been
over, eighty years, there are still 165

Dubois Courier: Matt Kite, the
beef eater, was around Saturday ev-
ening ready to bet that he could re-
peat his performance of eating four
pounds Of raw meat at one feast.
Kite is q man 2S years old, little
under medium size and native of
England. He was always a german
dizer and has the expression of
countenance and color that persons
usually have who eat quantities o
raw meat and drink blood.
A favorite way with some people
to open frozen water pip, is to put
a chisel shaped point on a long.
quarter of an inch thick iron ro'.
Insert the rod into the pipe in the
cellar and chisel the ice through to
the main pipe in the street. That
way can only be employed where ac-
cess to the house end of the pipe can
be had. Ex-Sheriff Noble seems to
have been the first one to start work
in that way, and as there is no pat
ent on his method of operation
number of citizens have availed
themselves Of that easy way of open
ing their frozen water pipes to the
main line.

ployers at the station.
