There is in the Missouri river, near
Omaha, an island on which is built a
town called East Omaha. According to
IN Omaha lawyers understanding of a
recent decision of the United States
supreme court, East Omaha is in both
Nebraska aud Iowa, yet, owing to the
peculiar course of the river, is under the
jurisdiction of neither common wealth
Acting on the lawyers advice tina.
neither state can interfere, the gamblers
of Omaha are preparing to establish an
american Monte Carlo on the island.
All the gambling places in the city of
Omaha have been closed by the police.
1t is amazing to think that there are
people in this country who have never
seen looking glass, but it seems to be
the case. Charles Patterson, a farmer
living near Gallipols, Ohio, has never
had one in his house. He went to town
the other day and bought one. That
evening his 10-year old son saw it for
the first time in his life. When he saw
his image there, it frightened him
dreadfullY. He thought it was ghost,
CT some equally uncanny thing, and
seizing a shotgun, fred at it, shattering
the new mirror into thousand frag-
ments,
Pete Andrews, of Brazil. Ind, has had
a piece of his back put on his nose. An
drews got into fight the other day,
and his antagonist bit his nose entirely
off close to his eyes. He was thought to
be disfgured for life, but the surgeons
were equal to the occasion They
made metallic bridge for his nose, to
replace the one that was gone, and then
took a piece of flesh from his back and
formed him a nose out of it. 1t Is said
that the operantiOn bids fair to be en-
tirely successful, and that he will prob
ably have as good looking a nose as he
had before.

THE OLD HARPOONER.
A Bit of the Poetry That Has Gone Out of
Whaling Life.

Bit of the Poetry That Has Gone Out of
Whaling Life.
The gallant seaman who in all the
books stands in the prov of whaling
boat waving harpoon over his head,
with the line shaking out into the air
behind him, is only to be found now in
Paternoster row. The Greenland seas
have not known him for more than Il
hundred years, since first the obvious
proposition was advanced that one COULD
shoot both harder and more accurately
than one could throw. The swivel gun
like a huge horse pistol, with its great
oakum wad and % drains of powder, Is
more reliable but far less pictur
esque object,
But to aim with such gun is an arr
| in itself, as will be seen when ole con-
siders that the rope is fastened to this
neck of a harpoon, and that as the mis-
sile flies the downward drag of this ropa
must seriously defect it. So difficult is
! it to make sure of ones aim, that 1t i
the etiquette Of the trade to pull the
boat right onto the creature, the prov
shooting up its soft, gently sIoping sid
and the harpooner firing straight down
into its broad back, into which not only
the four foot harpoon but 10 feet Of th5
rope behind it Will disappear. Then
should the whale cast its tail in the al
after the time honored fashion Of fhs
pictures, that boat would be in Ill case,
but fortunately when frightened or hur.
it does no such thing, but curl5 its tai
ND underneath it, like a cOwed dog. and
sinks like a stone. Then the bows
splash back into the water, the harpoon-
er hugs his own soul, the crew light
their pipes and keep their legs apart,
while the line runs Inerrily down the
middle of the boat ard over the bows,
There are two miles of it there, and q
second boat will lie alongside to splice
on if the first should run short, the end
being always kept loose for that pur-
pose. And now occurs the one serious
danger of whaling. The line has usu-
ally been cuiled when it was wet, and
as it runs out it is very liable to come
in loops. which whiz down the boat
between the men s legs. A man lassoed
in one of these noosos is gone and fifty
fathoms deep before the harpooner has
time to say, Where's Jock!" Or if il
be the boat itself which is caught then
down it goes like cork on trout line,
and the man who can swim with a
whaler s high boots on is a swimmer in
deed. Many a whale has had a Par
THAN revenge in this fashion. Sont
years ago man was whisked over with
a blight OF rope round his thigh.
George, man, Alec's gone.' shrek d
the boat steerer, heaving up his ak to
cut the line. But the harpooner caught
his wrist. ma, ma, mum, he cried,

while Alec shot on upon his terrible
journey. "A. Conan Doyle in Mcclure 4

HcE your OWN cow.


IT Is PROS tess Proceeding to Garry Cnai.
to Newcastle.
There are more ways than one, my son.
Of carrying Goals 10 Newcastle, and il
almost every case it is a proflloss pro
ceeding on the part of the person ensaG-
ed in it.
Therefore, my son, have nothing to do
with that kind of trafEic-that is to say,
do not encroach upon anOther's preserves
except to admire. Do not attempt to
stock them with your own game.
When a man is salesman in dry
goods store, do not ATTEMPT to instruct
him by the ventilation of IDEAS of your
own. If he be an actor, do not intrude
upon him any of your amateur notions,
I If a clergyman, refrain from Scriptural
citation and exegesis when in his compa-
ny. If a professional humorist, resist,
as it were the evil one, all temptation to
Righteousness and parOnCmasia. If L me
chanic, do notpresume to give him points
in his calling
But, on the other hand, my son, donot
attempt to interfere with his speaking or
his calling, profession or speciality. So
long as you listen you make no mistake,
and the wing of friendship molts no
feather.
Give ear to the story of bis experiences
at the counter, but interject none of your
own; listen toand applaud his spoutings
but spout not yourself; receive with be
coming reverence his interpretations OF
holy writ, but meddle not yourself with
that which the lay mind is not supposed
to be able to cope Withal; listen ana
laugh at his wit and WninseyS, bus
hazard no joke Of your own; attend
while he relates his mechanical achieve
ments, but vaunt not yourself in the
same line.
1t is a common mistake, my son, to
suppose that because man delights Ii
talking about certain something II
which he is proficient, he loves to hear
every babbler that falls in his way des
cant upon the same subject; that because
it pleases him to exalt himself in given
direction he likes to hear others in the
same direction exalt themselves.
When man knows thing thorough
ly-or thinks he does, which amounts to
the same so far as he is concerned-he is
quite ready and willing to instruct others,
but he brooks no incursions by others
into his peculiar domain. When he has
finished the exposition of his wares, it is
time for you to show up yours, provided
of course they are of an entirely differ
ent line.
There must be reciprocity in the COM
MERGE of conversation, an exchange OF
complementary commodities. Each must
give what the other lacks and receive in
return that in which he is wanting, else
there can be no trade, no harmony.
You would not ship oranges to Flori-
da, ice to Nova ZembiI or hot air fur
naces to Sahara. Then why carry Goals
to Newcastle?
Therefore, my son, let each man pad
die his own canoe as it best pleases him.
Admire, applaud, if you willard it is
your best hold-but don't put in your
oar, though he be swampinS. -Boston

IRRIGATION CONGRESS-.
Opened To-day With 200 DeleSate
present-L. z. Cannon Made
President-The Work.

Denver, Sept. 3.-The Sd National Irri-
CATION congress convened to-day. There
are about 200 delegates present represent
ing seventeen western states and terri
tories, besides representatives from Mex
leo, Canada, Russia and several other
European countries. The first object of
the convention is the formulation of a
bill regarding the reclamation of arid
lands. After this will come the question
whether the meeting shall endorse the re-
cent action of congress in ceding 100000
acres of arid lands to each arid land state
and territory in lieu of the western
proposition to have the government re-
claim the lands.
Colorado will oppose this plan on the
ground that the western states and ter
ritories have not the money to develop
these lands.
The congress was called to order by
the national chairman, W. M. Smythe
who delivered his annual address. Gov
Waite, Mayor Van Horn and President
Byers, of the chamber of commerce, well
coined the delegates.
Ex-Governor Prince, of New Mexico
introduced resolution giving every per-
son who has come to the convention the
right to participate regardless of repre-
sentation fixed by the Los Angeles con-
gress. This WAS referred to the commit
tee on credentials.
L.Q. Cannon, of Salt Lake, was elected
temporary chairman, when recess was
taken.

MILLS NEEDED.
Notable Mining Experts Inspecting
the Rich COchiti Region.

The Iron King encountered new
strike, richer than ever. the assay show
ing twenty ounces III gold and $27S in
silver. This claim is situated about three
quarters of mile west of the town of
Bland on Gold Hill, in Pine canon, and
the north extension of the we'll known
Lone Star. The ledge is 60 feet high by
40 feet wide, exposed similar to the Wash
ington, Lone Star, Last Chance, No. 2,
Crown Point, King Solomon, Chicago and
Albemarle claims. The Albemarle is
situated in the Cola canon three quarters
of mile west of the Washington and is
wonder, having a quartz ledge 60 feet
high by As feet wide mostly free milling
ore. 1t is estimated that the re1s 100000
worth of ore in sight valued at $40 per
ton. Prof. Penrose, United States min
eralogist of note, Prof. j. w. Kuykendall,
Prof. j. M. Ford, Judge D. B. Stewart and
many others, have examined fully the
Cochiti gold district, and have all ex-
pressed their satisfaction and belief in
the richness of the ore; that there is an
abundance of It and that in depth the ore
will hold out and improve. All that is
needed now are mills, and sampllng
works to treat the ore.-Denver Daily
Mining Record.
A telephone message to the New Mex
IcAN states that the Bailey mill at Aller-
ton made its first cleanup on Saturday
afternoon and out of thirty-one tons of
Iron King ore secured bullion worth $46,-
600, or fraction less than $149 per ton.
This speaks volumes for Cochiti's rich
ness.

About II O'Clock to-day the bridge was
repaired to admit the passing of train
consisting of an engine, freight car and
caboose with supply of food, and
MEAGRE STOCK OF CoFFINs
was sent north.
At Hinckley the situation was not ma
terially improved over night. Thirty or
forty caskets and boxes with their grue-
some contents still lay along the track
where they were placed last night. No
attempt was made to dress or embalm
the bodies as they were already very
offensive. Fortunately the day was cool
and cloudy and grateful showers fell at
times. Undertaken Donnelly, of st. Paul,
advised that the bodies be put under
mother earth as rapidly as possible.
Every attempt at Identification had
been exhausted. In the little cemetery a
mile east of town, only few little sandy
mounds before, now with fire-scarred
stumps and fallen trunks of trees all
about, it presented picture of desola-
tion, but in the center of the op N, in an
indiscriminate heap, lay

burned to crisp, others only Drowned
by heat, but noue with fragment of
clothing larger than hand to hide their
awful nakedness. Some we're trunks of
bodies, their limbs having been burned
off.
Mora, Minn.-Several surviving fami-
lies from Pokegama have been brought
in by hand cars; several dead were found
by rescuing parties; twenty-five are miss
ing, with little chance of being found
alive. The dead are: Fred Molander,
wife and two children Chas. Olsen, Miss
Nora Olsen, Thos. Raymond, wife and
three children; Oscar Larsen and sister,
David Goodsell, Chas. Whitney, Mr..
Barnes, and j. Brennan. Some families
escaped by lowering themselves into
wells and seeking refuge in the river.
The loss will foot up about 100000, on
which there is not cent of insurance.

ager of the Milwaukee d st. Paul railroad
says: "The forest fires are still raging
between Sidneyaw and Outagnon in
northern Minnesota. Wires have been
down north of Iron mountain since Sun
day evening and we are unable to got
news to-day. Forest fires are also raging
along the Wisconsin valley division in
Wisconsin"
RELIEF TRAIN.
st. PAULA relief train was sent to
Hinckley at $50 a. m. with force of men
and supply of tents. Additional sup
plies were picked up at every station
along the road. Philip Martin, of the
land department of the road, went
in search of Thomas Fitzgerald, land ex-
aminer, at Delgrove, who with dozen
men was in the midst of the fire and has
not been heard from.
The chamber of commerce has raised
$4,000 for relief to-day and adopted reso-
lutlons favoring the securing of informa-
tion from the U. s. consular agents as to
forestry management in other countries.

why Take the Wabash

For ST. LOUSY
Because it is the shortest line; the best
equipped line; runs free chair cars, Buffet
Pullmans and gives you ample time in
Kansas City for supper.
For TOLEDO OR DETROITf
Because it is the shortest line; avoids
transfer across the city in case you are
going further east, and makes close con-
nections with all trunk lines.
For NEW YORK or BOSTON?
Because it has solid through service
from both Chicago and st. Louis, via
NIAGARA FALLS; gives forty minutes
stop at the falls at seasonable time in the
morning.
FOR ALL OTHER EASTERN POINTS?
Because its service is uniformly good
and you can make no mistake in asking
for tickets VIA THE WABASH.
