CHANGED WILLIAMS LANGUAGE.
So Two Newspaper Correspondents at The
Meeting of Kaiser and Gar
Have Been Arrested

BERLIN, GERMANY, Oct. 20. - Two
newspaper correspondents. Herr Leckert
and Baron Won Lutzow, who attended the
meeting of Emperor William and theCzar at
Breslau, have been arrested on the charge
of libelously insulting Count Won Eulen-
berg, grand marshal of the court and
grand master of ceremonies. The trouble
arose from chance remark that was
made in the reply of the Czar to the toast
to him made by Emperor William. In
the earliest version of the reply it was
stated that the Gar had avowed that he
was INSPIRED by the same traditional
sentiment as my father" a later version
changed the wording to II am inspired by
the same traditional sentiments as your
Majesty" Herr Leckert and Baron Won
Lutzow ascribed the alteration to Count
Won Eulenburg, who saw in the asoription
a yelled political attack, and caused the
arrest of the correspondents. 1t is stated
that one of the men has been released.

NEW BICYCLE SKATE.

States to admit of the permanency of
the popularity of any form of roller
skates.
Not so, however, in England, where
the inventor of the skate claims that
20 skate which is independent alike of
the tickleness of the climate and the
more or less intermittent enterprise of
the skating rink promoter is a long-feIt
want" The new appliance, which is
really an adaptation of the principle of
the cycle to the old-fashioned roller
skates, is furnished with pneumatic
tires and ball bearings, and will not be
long in all probability before the slight
cxertion of energy on them over a rea-
sonably smooth and solid road is still
further reduced by the introduction of
the principle of gcared action.
The skates are held to the soles of the
shoes by the ordinary clamp in use on
ice skates of the club pattern, but have
an ankle support, which is kept in posi-
tion byh leather brace lined with lambs
wool and which fits about the calves Of
the legs.
1t is claimed that the skates may be
safely used in both up and down grades,
and that with practice q speed of ten or
twelve miles may b reached on fairly
good road. Several of the English pa
pers are enthusiastic over the future of
the road skate, pointing out that in its
use every muscle of the legs, back, neck
and arms is brought into play. This is
true also of saving wood, an exercise
which has never become national fad.
Anyone who has tried roller skating
can tell you that it is hard work, even
under the most favorable conditions.
and as far removed from ice skating as
bicyclig is from stair climbing in the
comparative energy employed.
The English road skate is a cumber-
some thing. The wheels are about four
inches in diameter. The skate e'may be
folded ND for travelling.

A N.rrow Escape from browning.

A Narrow Escape from Drowning.
John Castle, five year-old son OF e.
w. Castle, who resides in the Abbott
house, now owned by Warren Hazel
tine, came near being drowned a little
be fore nine o'clock Friday. Johnnie
was on the wall just below his fathers
residence throwing sticks in the river,
boy fashion, the water being high and
running swiftly next the bank, when
he made misstep and fell in. No
one was near but but some schoolmates
on the other side of the river saw 1t
and raised an salarm. Mr.. Arthur
Allen. with the Landman delivery
wagon drove his horse rapidly around,
distance Of about seventy-five rods in
season to pull him out.
That he was notdrowned seems Won
derful owing to his size, the swiftness
of the current and the boulders that
lined the way from where he fell in to
the place of rescue, distance of some
five or six rods. Luck was in his fa-
vor backed up by gritty courage not
often seen in one so young. He made
heroric efforts to save himself and when
pulled out had caugh hold Of an over
hanging bush.
