Too Much Kite.

A peculiar accident, which came near
ending the earthly career of Charles
Barker, occurred at Winona during a
kite flying contest. Mr.. Barber, who
inaugurated the contest, appeared with
kite measuring eight feet from top to
bottom, and with the assistance of a
couple of friends he proceeded to fly it.
After the kite was we'll in the air, Bar
Der fastened the rope by which it was
held around his body in order to hold
it better. No sooner had he done this
than the friends who were aiding him
let go the cord, thinking that Barber
could hold it all right. AS they let go
Barber was dragged along the ground
for some rods, and then lifted bodily
into the air. His friends tried to res
cue him, but they could not reach him,
and he was afraid to drop, even If he
could have done so. The kite pulled
him up into the air over Is feet and
then the wind seemed to die away. Bar
Der and the kite began to sink slowly
and gracefully, and in few minutes
he was dropped into the river, which is
wide. Tied as he was to the kite, Bar
Der could not sink, and in short time
he was rescued by man with boat,
who brought him to shore after cutting
the rope which held the kite. The kite
fell in marsh land on the Wisconsin
side of the river Mr.. Barber is none
the worse for his trip in the air.

PUT OFF AT THE RIGHT PLACE

He may have been hayseed. Helooked
like it; but way down deep in his eyes the
second time you looked you seemed to
notice a suspicion OF real sickness that
escaped you at first.
He held ticket to Tecumseh, gays the
Topeka State Journal, when he got on the
train at Topeka, and he gave it up promptly
to the conductor on demand.
When the conductor came through the
train after it had left Tecumseh, he was
surprised to see the same man sitting COM
placently in the same seat.
"Ticket' said the conductor.
Haven't got any," said the man.
"Then you'll have topay,' said the con-
ductor.
Cant do it, said the man.
''Then I'll have to put you off, y said the
conductor.
''What, right out here in the country"
asked the man.
Right out here in the country re-
piled the conductor.
A good many of the other passengers were
interested at once, and the argument con-
tnued. The conductor noticed = he said
after ward-that the man kept looking out
of the window as he talked and did not
seem to be in hurry. Of course, the
train was running all the time.
The farmer finally went down into his
pocket and got out his purse. He was not
in hurry about it, and after he had
opened it, seemed lost in thought.
Come" said the conductor, 81 can't
fool with you all day."
"Must pay or get off, eh?" asked the
farmer.
81 said that, ~ replied the lnan with
the pun oh. There was another moments
silence. The farmer took another look out
of the window.
81 guess you can put me off," he said.
The train was stopped and the con-
ductor went to the rear platform to see that
he got of and stayed off.
See that white house over there?'
asked the son of toll
The conductor could see it easily.
''That's where l work, said the farmer.
''This is the nearest the railroad comes
to it. am much obliged to you for letting
me off here. was afraid l wouldn't be
able to keep you interested until we got
here. Have cigar" and the granger
jumped lightly to the ground and was
gone.
The train was two minutes behind time
before the conductor recovered his breath.
"Well, I'll be switched" he said in an
humbled tone, and then he went in and
kicked the newsboy.

FORMATION OF SILVER MINES

The process by which nature forms her
silver mines is very interesting 1t must
be remembered that the earth's crust is full
of water, which percolates everywhere
through the rocks, making solutions o.
elements obtained from them These
chemical solutions take up small particles
of the precious metal, which they find
here and there. Sometimes the solutions
in question are hot, the water having got
so far down as to be set boiling ly the in
ternal heat Of the globe. Then they rush
upward, picking up the bits of metal as
they 90. Naturally heat assists the per.
Torrance of this operation.
Now and then the streams thus formed,
perpetually flowing hither and thither be-
low the ground, pass through cracks or
cavities in the rocks, where they deposit
their loads of silver. This is kept up for
a great length Of time-perhaps thousands
of years-until the fissure or pocket is filled
up. Crannes permeating the stony mass
in every direction may become filled with
the precious metal, Or occasionally cham
Der may be stored full Of it, as if a million
hands were fetching the treasure from all
sides and hiding away future mine for
some lucky prospector to discover in
another -Pittsburg Dispatch.

A Little Girls Original Definition In Court
of ''What Is a Sin?"
An incident worth recording occurred
before Chief Judge SedgeWick of the
superior court in the trial of the action
brought in behalf of Ida Goldberg to re-
cover SIS, 900 damages from Edward
Ridley & Sons for injuries received in
being knocked down and run over by
one of the wagons of the firm The girl
had her arm fractured. The defense was
that she was responsible for the acct
dent by her own negligence.
Lottie Goldberg, sister Of the plain
tiff, who is only II years of age, was
called to the witness chair to testify to
the circumstances of the accident. She
was such a little child that she was
questioned as to her understanding the
nature Of an oath, in order to ascertain
whether she should be allowed to testify.
"Do you understand the nature of an
oath?'

The New Law Will Not Be Enforced.

The New Law Will Not Be Enforced.
Executive Agent Fullerton, Of the
game and fish commission, has returned
from Duluth where he investigated fish
ing conditions up along the north shore
of Lake Superior with view of deter
mining the possibility of enforcing the
act relating to pound nets, says the
Minneapolis Journal. The law does not
allow the use of gill nets, but Agent
Fullerton says it will be impossible for
the Superior fishermen to use the pound
nets: The bottom Of the lake is rock,
and as pound nets can only be held in
place by large stakes, this information
prevents their use. TO give up the gill
nets would mean to stop fishing, and so
an exception will be made and obser-
vance Of the pound net section not
required. There are about forty families
engaged in the fishing along the north
shore and nearly all of them are poor.
There is one section of the law, how
ever, which will be enforced, and that
rigidly, too. The fishermen have been
setting their nets near the mouths of
trout streams and catching fish enter
ing and coming out. The law expressly
forblds this and Agent Fulle rton pro-
poses to see it enforced. Such fishing
is particularly aggravating, because the
trout thus taken are for the most part
from streams stocked by the state fish
hatchery.
Application has been received at the
fish commissioners office for a license
from Glow Bros and Kalmback.

So WOmanly.

That the ways Of woman are passing
strange was again proved by an incident
on Main street Car last evening. A
gentleman arose to offer his seat to a
lady who had just entered with her lit
tie boy. Seeing the seat vacant, she
sent the boy to. occupy it, while she
clung to a strap She was evidently
very tired and would have enjoyed a
seat, but preferred to care for her son
first. Presently lady left the Car, and
the one standing took her seat. Next to
her was serving maid with a pretty
baby Oh her lap. The lady asked per-

ing granted she cooed and talked and
