RODE AN ANGRY BULL.
Miss Isancson Was Carried IA Mile, but

People of Dundaff and Crystal Lake,

Half mile ahead appeared man in

and as soon as the bull caught sight of
that he took it as a challenge and in

danger and put the lash to his horse.

From the foot OF a long hill two far

Selling a long fence rail- held it across
the highway. On came the bull and
his rider at a mad gait When within
few rods of the obstruction the bull
stopped suddenly veered around and
headed directly for home.
The movement threw Miss Isaacson
into deep snowdrift, whence in dead
faint she was taken by the farmers and
carried into farm house. The next day
she was able to return to her friends.

fapher, who disposed of his gallery in
GIFTS Art building last August in order
to be able to devote all his time to me-
chanical invention, for which he has a
decided bent, has just perfected a new
process for making photographs which
promises to reVolutioniZe that art. No
negative plates are used in this new
process and the cost of production is
thereby greatly reduced As a subsi-
tute for plates Mr.. Moore has devised
a Photographic card mount. which is
waterproof. These cards, when they
are to be used, are coated with an
emulsion which gives them the essen
tial properties of the sensitized plate
The picture is taken directly on these
sensitized mounts; the mounts are
chemically treated and the photo
graphs can be entirely finished and de-
l1vered to the customer in a very short
time after the sitting is made
ANY camera may be used in making
pictures by this new process. but not
satisfied with this as a labor and time
saving device, Mr.. Moore has devised
a camera by which a full dozen of
these photographs can be taken in
about 10 seconds. Mr.. Moore calls this
camera the repeater" 1t has sort
of augmented plate holder capable of
holding 100 of these card mounts By
an ingenious mechanical appliance, OPP
Grated by electricity, the cards are ex-
posed one at time while the subject
Is sitting, and Mr. Moore says that the
camera will actually take a dozen pic
lures in as many seconds, and that
these pictures can be finished up and
handed over to the customer in Is min
utes. 1t is almost literally a case of
pictures taken while you wait" Mr..
Moore mas applied for the necessary

TAX ON PAY CHECKS

Fay.
Chicago, June 27.-Employers who
pay their help with bank checks are
concerned over the war-revenue law.
1t provides that every order for the
payment of money. drawn upon any
bank. must bear cents in stamps,
properly Cancelled and dated.
The Stockyards Company has not
far from $4,000 employees who are paid
by check every two weeks. The war
revenue stamps therefore would in
volve an extra expense of $1,4OO, and
the company may abandon the check
arrangement and pay in currency.
In the ease of railways, however.
where employees are scattered about in
many districts. payment by check is
almost imperative. The AtchisOn, To-
peka x Santa Fe Railroad Company
has already ordered 100000 1-cent and
5000 2-cent revenue stamps. OF the
other railroads the Chicago, Rock
Island 4 Pacific, with Its 5000 checks
month; the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul, with 1900, and the Chicago
Il Northwestern with 5000 checks,
have decided to pay . cents to the gov
ernment rather than distribute cash to
their employees.
The Chicago board OF education,
which distributes each month over s.
300 checks, will hereafter pay 2 cents
each for the privilege. So Will the
Chicago Edison Company, with its
1000 employees. They are firm In the
belief that money would be lost in
abandoning the check system In favor
of cash payments. The Glucose Sugar
Refining Company will pay the tax on
its 1000 monthly checks AS matter of
economy.
The department stores will be but
slightly affected, as they are accus-
toned to pay employees in currency
each week.

Serious results often follow a strain,

few people are so liable TO strain as those
who are lifting heavy loads of various

rarely ever overtaxes his strength. Fa-
miliarity with the class of wares he
handles, enables Kim to entirely gage the
load he lifts so as not to put an excessive
burden on himself. But with the farmer
il is different. He is lifting loads of such

Washington, D. c., June 25.-The
President was decidedly pleased when
he learned from Cuba that all of the
troops were on land, and he regards
the good fortune that has followed
them from the start as a dispensation
of Providence. He realizes fully the
degree of danger to which they have
been subjected at this season, when
hurricanes of terrific force are fire.
quent. Weather observers say that
many years have passed since the an
nual summer hurricanes were post
poned as long as they have been this
year. There is usually one, and some
times two, destructive storms about
June 21st, which have often destroyed
plantations, factories, railway bridges
and other artificial structures on shore,
and sometimes wide forests and entire
cities have been swept away by the
force Of nature. At these times 1t Is
often impossible for shipping to sur
vive unless 1t happens to be sheltered
In a well-protected harbor.
Such q hurricane, which may be ex-
pected any day. would not only have
scattered the fleet Of transports, but
might have sent dozen Of them to the
bottom. The men-of-war, and particu-
larly the battleships, are better able to
resist the force Of these gales than
merchant ships, because of the heavy
materials of which they are construct
ed and the fact that a larger portion
of their hulls are submerged in the
water. The danger to the fleet is not
over yet, but the President feels that
1t il the cause for the most profound
congratulation that the troops are all
ashore without the loss Of single life.

NEGRO OFFICERS,

The Experiment Il to He Tried ON . Con
siderable Scale In the New Volunteer.
New York, June Pa special to the
Times from Washington says:
When the mastering in of new or
ganizations under the second call is
completed, the volunteer army will in
clude between 5000 aud 10000 negro
soldiers, and more negro officers than
were ever before in the service of the
United States.
In furnishing officers for these col
ored commands the War Department
has had a serious problem to deal with.
1t is the Presidents desire to give the
negroes a representation as officers.
In the last war, when there were 91,-
7s9 negro troops-three years. men-in
the Federal army, the officers were
white men.
The experiment of a negro regiment
wholly oflicered by negroes is to be
tried in the case of the North Carolina
regiment, whose colonel will be d col
ored man. and the only one Of that
rank In the army. In the Alabama
regiment the officers viii be white
men. In the immune negro regiments
and other field officers and the captains
being white, and the lieutenants and
other lesser officers black.
f, Army oficers regard the omcering
of negro regiments with: negroes as an
experiment which may or may not
turn out well. The negro needs to be
led well, they say. to make a good
fighter, and there Is some doubt
whether colored troops win follow one
