Ml,:sd h. Teeth to = Church.

George A. Ward, who died some
time ago, left a will with the provision
that his false teeth, which he had
worn for a number OF years. should sc

teeth being highly inset with the pre-
clous yellow metal, and Mr.. Ward be-
ing OF a somewhat saving turn Of
mind, he resolved that the gold which
had ornamented his molars should not
be buried deep in the earth, but should
be brought into use. The set Of teeth
was sent to Chicago, and the gold
weighed and sold A short time ago
the church received $27 as the price Of
the gold. The money was turned over
to apply on the pastors salary.-Tomb-

pIo DOWN DEEP.
Prairie Dogs Have Their Holss that Go

Down 90 the water Lsvsl.
The most interesting thing I have
seen In many a day" said Mr.. Harvey
Geer OF Lamont, Colorado, at the Eb-
bitt few nights ago, according to the
Washington Star, was a prairie dog
well Did you ever see onel IL isn't
often that chance occurs to explore
the homes and haunts Of these expedi-
t1ous little inhabitants OF the plains A
few miles from my town a large force
OF men has been at work this summer
making a deep cut for a short railroad
up into the mines. A friend OF mine IL
In charge OF the Job, and went out
week ago TO see him and the work that
had been done. The first thing that At
tracted my attention when / got there
was the fact that the cut was being
made through an old alfalfa field and
the roots fringed the sides Of the cut
and hung down fifteen to eighteen feet.
Up at the surface Of the ground were
the stubbed green plants, and reach
ing down deep into the earth were the
fat, business-like roots, getting their
living far below where ordinary plants
forage for subsistence.
But the most remarkable thing was
the prairie dog wells that had been dug
into. The cut went through a dog vii
lage, and being a deep one-some forty
feet-it went below the town. There
has always been a discussion about
where the prairie dog gets his drink.
Some say he goes eternally dry and
does not know what II is to have an ele-
CANT thirst on him. Usually their towns
are miles from any stream and in an
arid country where there is no surface
water at any time sufficient for the
needs OF an animal requiring drink.
The overland travellers back in the days
Of pioneering used to find the dog
towns out on the prairie scores Of miles
from the streams. There was no
dew, the air was dry as a bone, the
buffalo grass would be parched brown
and there would be absolutely nothing
to Quench thirst.
Il remember a discussion begun Mir
~ years ago in the American Naturalist
by DIR. Sternberg, now surgeon gen
eral, on the subject. and he argued in
favor Of the we'll theory. But there,
near Lamont, is ocular proof Of the
well theory. The nest holes Of the dogs
were five or six feet deep. but four or
I've holes went straight down as deep
as the excavation had been made, and
evidently on into the water-carrying
sand beneath. These holes appeared to
be used by the whole colony commonly,
and were a little larger than the holes
used for their homes"

WEDDINGS IN MAORI LAND.

The Maoris Of New Zealand are not
In the strictest sense aborigines. They
are a people with a distinct personal
ity and are, as a race, beautiful. Un-
til sixty years ago to be Maori was
to be a cannibal; infanticide Of girl
babies was and is common; age was
and is revered. Slavery and polygamy
are more or less common. Women
have fiourishing rights in Maoriland.
Often they have little voice in their
choice Of a husbands first husband
but they may and do often change him
trade him or exchange him without
the slightest loss OF reputation. Court
ship does not often precede marriage
and is at most brief. Yet the Maoris
have their love tales, beautiful and
poetical in sentiment. Divorce is as
simple as the marriage rites, which are
conspicuous by their absence. When
a husband and wife wish to separate
the man simple turns his wife out Of
doors, and there are no legal Difficult

Arthur Cumminr's Bravery.

When the attack was made on Sidon,
during the war with Syria, it became
necessary for the British troops to ad-
vance across a long, unprotected
bridge, In the face Of a battery of six
guns, which completely commanded
the approach. The men were unwilling
to expose themselves to certain death,
when Arthur Cumming. carefully
dressed In full uniform, stepped for
ward TO the middle Of the bridge. 1t

the battery. When the smoke had roll.

carefully brushing the dust from his

a single glass in his eye and looked
back at the men. This was too much,
and they captured that bridge and

THE LONE WOMAN TRAVELLER.

The new woman" doesn't propose
to miss the delights Of travel simply

how to take care Of herself, and when

ever she does, but she proceeds at once
TO make herself comfortable and TO
thoroughly enjoy her little rub up

Railroad is the only route in the Unit
ed States that is completely equipped
with the vorld-famous lock and block
system Of signals. but that doesn't
mean anything to her until you ex-
plain that by this system every foot

increasingly watched and signaled day

dcally impossible, because q train can

IN A BOG.

No vision Of death is more appalling
than that which comes to a man sink
ing inch by inch In bog. His strug-
gies intensity the agony, for they can
not aver his doom. An English oficer
In India went out one afternoon to q
lake to shoot ducks. Two got I'D from
under his feet and few across an arm
OF the lake. With the first barrel he
shot one, and the second brought down
the other, which fell on q sort of prom
ontory. A native attendant went to re-
trieve the first bird, and the oficer
thought he would go round the arm OF
the lake and pick up the second one
for himself.
The attendant shouted something, I to
which he gave no attention, but went
on to the promontory. He had not
gone far when he felt the ground
culver in the peculiar way that de-
notes a bog. Immediately he was
frightened and did the worst thing
possible-he tried to get back to solid
land by a succession of leaps. Of
course he broke through, and with a
yell he sank In the treacherous mud.
The more hestruggled the deeper he
sank. He got his gun across the mud,
and 1t gave him support for q minute
or two. Then he and 1t began again
to sink. He realized that he was
slowly but surely sinking to death. II
help did not come he was lost. The
attendant was not to be seen; he felt
himself alone and helpless. He was
in agony.
He had sunk up to the shoulders,
when he heard a shout: "Al right;
we1l have you out!" and saw the shi-
karee NATIVE hunter) crawling over
the bog with a rope tied to him The
ofhcer felt the rope put under his arms,
and then he tainted.
When he came u his senses he found
himself supported on a friends knee.
while another was trying to pour q
stimulant down his throat.
The attendant had rushed into camp
and told the shikaree what had hap
pened. He got a rope and reused the
ofhcer's two friends from their siesta-
They dashed down the bog and hauled
out the oficer, who seemed like dead
man. Ten minutes more. so the shi-
karee declared, and the officer would
have sunk out OF sight, for the bog
was the most dangerous place in the
country.

would inevitably result in financial and
