Soldiers and Helen Gould.

"You know Camp Walworth is sup
ported largely by Miss Helen Gould's
generosity" said one of the young wom-
en- in the office, 'and really Miss Gould
would be delighted could she know how
grateful the soldiers are to her. One
of the rough riders told me little III
cident illustrating this. They were put
ting down some boarding in tent at
Camp Wikoff, and a man was saving off
some boards very carefully so as to-
make th.m just fit the space. What's
the use of taking so much pains with
them boards?' another man asked.
There's plenty more where they cam G
from; they belong to the government.
That's where you're way Off said the
man with the saw. These boards be-
ong to Helen Gould. She sent 'ew
down here, and there amt going to be

WON'T TRAVEL BY TRAIN.
This Cattle Dealer Started Out with
. Buggy, and to = Buggy
He Sticks.

Elijah N. Hofses, aged 70, of Werners-
vile, Pa, is cattle dealer who has
travelled over a large part of the west
ern states and has never ridden on a
railroad train. He thinks nothing of
getting as far west as the cattle ranges
OF Kansas with his horse and buggy,
buying up stock on the way out and
back.
~ don't know that have anything
against railroads." said he, that would
induce me not to travel by train.

the reason | do not ride on cars my
self is that | started out by buggy, and.
as am used to it, keep at it. l have
my usual route to cover, sometimes
extending 2,0oo miles. travel GER

ers to see between towns. In fact. a
man can have time table by buggy
the same as railroad trains have. l
may not be so regular, though. A thou
sand-mile trip can be made without
varying three days for the whole route.
1t all depends on how business goes.
When man travels on the road
by buggy for 40 years, he gets to be
pretty we'll known, and if he has cared
for his credit, his honesty and his good
character, he has no trouble buying
stock cheap and right, and if he pays
spot cash there is a small profit for
him after he has paid his freight and
ether expenses east and sells out for
safe cash. When l get tired of buggy
riding I get out and walk. That has
kept me in the good health 1 now en-
joy. There is no exercise better than
wa King. When drove cattle astinstead
of shipping by carload lots, 1 walked
much more than in the past few
years. The old-time droving is not
profitable now. Competition is too
shrap. Dressed beef is shipped east
too cheap. The only way to get any
profit in live cattle is to buy spot cash
by visiting the farmers and stock deal
ers in person, and you cannot get to
their farms nearly so cheaply shy trav-
cling by buggy. You can buy railroad
tickets with stop-off privileges, but
then you have your expenses in hiring
teams to get into the country where the
farmers live. Travelling by buggy is
also cheapest. I carry very little cash
money, as always pay by check. There
is no danger on the highways, but it
is always best to travel by day and rest
at night. In the hot weather I make
starts at four m. and get over good
deal of ground by nine o'clock. A few
hours in the evening finish up the days
work in cattle buying.
II had one horse 1 used every week
day for ten years. never travel or
do business on the Sabbath day. Horse
and man must rest on the seventh day,
or the first day Of the week, whichever
way you want to take it.. Thirty miles
driving every day, stopping, buying,
feeding and shipping, is smart work
enough. OF course I enjoy the life.
Any man would if he once got into
it. It's the best school in the world,
I think, and about the only way to see
the country. Some Of my friends call
me foolish for not riding on railroad
trains, but that's all right. Inever was
married, and having no family was al
ways free to go and come. IN. Y. Sun.

A FEAT IN GLASS BLOWING.
An Unprate ntiOus Russian Peasant
Shows Experts q Trick in Their
Own Trade.

Emperor Nicholas wished to illumi-
nate the Alexander column in grand
style. The style of the round lamps to
be used for the purpose was indicated,
and the glasses ordered at the manufac-
tory, where the workmen exerted them
selves in vain, and almost blew the.
breath out of their bodies i'm the en-
deavor to obtain the desired size.
The commission must be executed
that was self-evident; but how?
A great premium was offered to the
one who could solve the problem. Again
the human bellows toiled and puffed.
Their object seemed unattainable;
when at last a long-bearded Russian
stepped forward and declared that he
coul.. do it-he had strong lungs, he
would only rinse his mouth first with
little water to refresh them.
He applied his mouth to the pipe.
and puffed to such purpose that the
vitreous ball swelled and puffed nearly
to the required dimensions, up to them,
beyond them.
Hold! Hold" cried the lockers on.
"You are doing too much; and how did
you do it all"
''The matter is simple enough" an
swered the long beard, "but first, where
is my premium?'
And when he had clutched the prom
ised bounty, he explained.
He had retained some of the water in
his mouth, which had passed thence
into the glowing ball, and then becom-
ing steam had rendered him this good
service.

MORTALITY FROM HEAT.
How High Temperatures Affect the
Public Health Of Large
Cities.

It will not now be difficult to under
stand in what manner high tempera-
ture affects the public health of large
cities. Evidently in the direct action
Of heat upon the human body we have
the most powerful agency in the pro-
duction OF our great summer mortality.
Whiel sunstroke represents the max

terrible effects of the prevailing in
debilitated by disease or age and there
by have their "heat-regulating power"
diminished. The fact has been es-
tablished by frequent experiment that
when solar or artificial heat is con-
tinually applied to the animal the tenn
perature of its body will gradually rise
until all of the compensating or heat
regulating agencies fail to preserve the
equilibrium, and the temperature
reaches a point at which death takes
place from actual combustion. In gen
eral, a temperature of 1o7 degrees Fahr-
enheit in man would be regarded as
indicating an unfavorable termination
of any disease. In persons suffering
from sunstroke the temperature often
ranges from 106 degrees Fahrenheit to
100 degrees Fahrenheit, the higher tenn
perature appearing just before fatal

HISTORIC WINE CELLAR.
Important Discoveries Made By TIVE
German Explorers In
Asia Minor.

The explorer, DR.. Belck, who was at
tackled in September last while prose-
cutting his studies in Asia Minor, has
made some interesting discoveries near
Lake Wan. He and DR.. lehman are
searching for Chaldean inscriptions,
and the cost of their expedition is be-
ing betrayed from fund to which the
principal contributors are the kaiser
and the Virchow institute, says Ber-
lin Dispatch in London Mail.
According to letters dated Tifis, No
vember &c. the two explorers, in ex-
cavating among the ruins of palace
of the old ChaAdean king Argastes H..
came across this monarch's wine cell
lar. It was filled with colossal earth
enware vessels, few of which have
been secured for the Berlin museum.
OF far greater Importance, however,
is their discovery of inscriptions on
the drains of the palace, which furnish
a complete chronology to the time of
the Assyrian king Tiglat Phalasar
(about the eighth century before
CHRISTI. The Armenian patriarchs have
been very gracious to the two German
explorers, and have even allowed them
the unwonted privilege of taking away
an extremely interesting inscription
from the wall of an old monastery.
DR.. Belck and his colleague intend
now to visit the upper Tigris, Mossul
and Nineveh, and to continue their in
vestigations in what is probably the
home of the earliest civilization, the
district between Mount Ararat and the
upper reaches of the Tigris and Eu-

Washington, May S.-A very close
friend Of General Mics, and an officer OF
the army, when asked what there was for
the general to say or do in regard to the
report Of the beef board. replied: There
is nothing for him TO say or do. The re-
port has been approved by the president,
and the president is the commandments
chief Of the army. Criticism of the re-
port or any other action would be a viola
ton Of military duty
Inquiry was made as to the status Of
officers criticised and what course they
might pursue and it was stated that as a
military legal proposition it was impossi-
BILE for any action to be taken by any
of the officers aggrieved. They might IN
the court Of inquiry, but this was a court
of inquiry that recommended that no
further action be taken; this, being ap-
proved by the president, precluded any
further inquiry. General Eagan, who IS
specified in the report, Is not likely to ask
for any further investigation. But Colonel
Maus, OF General Miles staff, the other
officer criticised, feels it keenly. HIS
friends say he was among the witnesses
whom General Miles asked to be called,
and was not called by the court.
