bit. OF old world News.

We take the following from an old
history book published in 1869. Itrecords
that in king Harrold's" reign "a blaz-
ing Star was seen for seven dayes space
ell tho World over" Then Fearful
Comet appeared, which was look'd upon
las after 1t proved) bad Omen" This
was in the year 1924. In the reign Of
King John. 1904. several Prodigies
were seen," which brought terrible
storms Of Thunder and Lightning with
Hail Stones as big as Goose Eggs which
destroyed Men and Women. besides Cat
tie and Cornields." London bridge was
crowded with people looking at great
lire, when "the Violence OF the Wind
took hold on both ends of the Bridge so
that the People could not pass either
backwards or forwards, and SO Barges.
Boats, ETC.. coming to their Assistance,
the People thronged so indiscreetly into
them that the Boats sunk, and above
three thousand Persons were drowned"

How He Formed His Opinion.

Jim Thornton, who just now occupies
q position Of extreme prominence in the
Tenderloin precinct, hasn't very high
opinion Of human intelligence as dis
played in the swell cafes. He tells this
story to show that his opinion in this re-
spect is correct:
During the recent excitement about
the nearness of Mars to the earth he was
sitting in the rear room Of Broadway
cafe fat broke, but very thirsty. He
had nothing to do. so he sat down and
wrote song, which he called MY
Sweetheart's the Man in the Moon"
When he finished it he offered it to
the bartender for couple of drinks and
q dollar. The bartender laughed at him,
and Jim walked away with his thirst
and the song. Pretty nearly every one
knows the song now. and the royalty
from it allows Jim to spend over $50 a
week in the cafes all over town.-New
York Journal.

In the hop districts Of New York the
lice are reported in unusual quantity on
leaf and blossom buds Of fruit trees, rose
bushes and hops. Reports from some
portions OF the state indicate them to be
nearly as abundant as in the year 1886
when the aphis almost destroyed the en-.
tire crop. Hop men are greatly alarmed
at the prevalence Of the vermin. The
same condition is said to exist on the
west side of the mountains. in this state,
and preparations are being made for q
vigorous campaign against The rapidly
multiplying pest.

Heavy Damage. For a Demolished Nose


A jury in the circuit court has placed
Q definite value on o handsome nose in o
verdict rendered In case which has
been in the courts for four years. The
case is that of Emery Bruce against A.
A. Bombeck and wife. Bruce alleged
that while sitting in his buggy on the
Southwest boulevard Mrs. Bombeck
drove by at very rapid pace. and her
buggy collided with his, owing to her
careless driving, with the result that his
nose was SO badly crushed that it has
never regained its shape. Bruce further
alleged that his nose was particularly
handsome one. and he considered 1t his
strong point Of beauty. The jury sized
mp his nose and awarded him 1915 dam
ages.-Kansas City Letter.

At EOS p. NJ. Valkyrie made a short
tack to ~starboard. but finding that yigi.

again, determined to keep the Yankee
sloop secure under her lee.
The cutter went about to ~starboard
at 3.l3 p. NJ. am the sloop followed
short tacks clear down to the turning
stake. Valkyrie held her advantage
well until Vigilant put up an interme-
diate jibtopeail In place Of the baby jib-
topsail that she carried In the early
part Of the race. Then the Hereshoff
boat began to walk up. She then out
pointed as we'll as outfooted Nalkyrie.
and the hopes Of the British cutter were
fallen.
Vigilant crossed Valkyrie's bow at
i.49 p. NJ. and from that time there
was no doubt OF the result Nalkyrie
had sailed a crafty race to windward,
Vigilant turned the stakeboat fifteen
miles to windward OF the starting line
at COS. Valkyrie turned at 6.l4.55. As
1t was impossible to finish the race
within the. time limit Of six hours. It
was called of. and the yachts took

Mr.. Davis's argument was based on

Davis occupied more tldn an hour In

Col. James, who brilliantly argued the
points In Mr.. Sage's favor. held. that
there was but one wrons-doer. n that
was Norcross.
The explosion. he held. was the sole
cause of the plaintiffs damage, and the
defendant had no agency whatever In
causing the explosion, and had no power
to prevent 1t. There was no evidence,
he continued, that Sage's act either

efficient cause Of the damage to the
plaintiff.
Col. James further argued that Mr..
Sage was under no duty to protect Laid

The controversy between the fruit i'm
porters and the fruit dealers over the
rules governing the opening Of fruit on

dealers declare that they are being
sWindled by the "doctoring" OF samples
by the importers on the wharves where
the fruit is opened for inspection.
At a special meeting of the Fruit

Lyon denounced in most emphatic Ian
