TRAMPS JUBILATE.

Each Other.

They Get Some Beer and Begin to Pound
Each other.
Just outside the city limits on the
north Thursday evening, a company
of tramps held high carnival. There
were ten or a dozen Of them altogether
and among them was key of beer.
After they had empted the key of its
contents, they became exceedingly
joyful and for amusement proceeded to
push and haul and knock each other
about in a general way. After the
spirits had got we'll at their work, the
playful rough and tumble got more
rough and more in earnest. One,
whose center of gravity was very un-
certain, came in for the greater part Of
the abuse. Finally things got SO
savage that it became necessary for Il
constable and an officer to interpose or
behalf of the maltreated tramp. The
one that led in the pounding and the
poor fellow who had sustained tie
brunt and was in precarious condi
ton on account of it, were both arrest
ed and left to sober up at the county
Jail.

An Everyday Hero.

This Is the story of brave deed that
strong hearts feared to do; story or
mothers anguish changed to JOY and
the saving of the life or little child.
1t all happened in this way:
Little Jimmy Dillon lives with his
parents at S11 Coy street, Armourdale.
While playing about the cistern yes
terday evening he fell into the water
His cries for assistance brought large
crowd of men and women, The mother
was almost frantic With grief ana

The men stood around the cistern, but
when they looked into the black depths,
not even the sight of the child strug-
Cling for its life moved them to make
further efforts to save it than to throw
ropes down to it. The child, however,
was too frightened to grasp the ropes
and sank the third time, while the
mother abandoned herself TO the wild

4 Then the hero came. His name Is
Jack Rambo and he was passenger
on a passing car. He saw the excited
crowd and swung off the ear to set
what was the matter He no sooner
took in the situation than without
moments hesitation he sprang into TN

for him to dive, but he managed u

A TEST FOR HORSEFLESH.
But Even a Chemist Cannot Always Rec
Ognize 1t.

Ognize II.
People are apt to jump at conclu-
sions, said chemist in speaking of
the latest notable murder case. "Chem-
istry is a very nice science, but it is
possible to make some sad plumbers in
applying it to law and evidence. There
are certain things you can prove by 1t
if yon are sure Of your premises and
certain other things that you cannot.
This thing of trying to prove good
deal by chemistry calls to mind the beef
extract case that gave packer III this
city considerable uneasiness.
Somebody got hold of his beef ex-
tract and claimed that 1t was made from
horsefesh, and it was proved by analy-
sis-that is, to the satisfaction OF the
man that analysed it. The ordinary test
for horsehesh, according to the authorl-
ties, is glycogen. This is substance
that, speaking in a general way, is
found in horsedesh, but does not exist
in beef, and it was shown that this par
ticular extract contained glycosen.
1.-THE packer came to us III some DIS
tress Of mind for a way out of the diff
Guilty He said his extract was made OF
nothing but beef, and he wanted us tc
help him prove it, and we did SO to hl'
relief and to the satisfaction OF the
health officers We demonstrated that
while an ordinary piece of beef did moi
contain glycogen, it existed in the
heart liver and blood of cattle, anC
some of each of these might have en-
tered into the making of the beef ex
tract. The result was that the chemls
who had arrived at such sweeping con
illusions from the first test had to bael
down from his position. "-'"lcag
