JUMPED FROM THE CLOUDS.
A Parachutist Lands in Farmers

From the Detroit Free Press.)

'One would not suppose said the aero

II congratulated myself on my easy
descent and was climbing down when
became aware that large bull dog was
at the foot of the tree, evidently bent on
disputing my right TO be there.
For three mortal hours that miserable
dog kept me treed. Then the old farmer
arrived on the scene with a gun. / tried
to explain matters, but he refused to
listen. To his excited imagination the
parachute, which was still in the top of the
tree. was an immense bag that / had
hauled up there preparatory to filling it
with apples.

western Dependence.
(From the Chicago News.)

The West has grown rich. 1t has capital.
But as yet its financial independence has not
gone beyond this primary stage. Ii is still
largely tributary TO the East, not because it
lacks capital but because it has not yet organ
lied and developed the machinery for handling
capital. Take single ilustration in this line.
The great insurance companies of the East still
draw millions of money from the West. part of
which is turned again, loaned or invested in the
West In Illinois alone the premiums paid on
''old line" life insurance in ls9s are stated as
SIS. .62l. 600. The companies receiving these pre-
miums hold 81 800, 600 of assets, partly drawn
from the West, which makes them dominant
factor in certain lines of loaning, even in the
West 1t is in the science OF developing this
machinery for attracting and handling capital,
quite as much as in having the money. that hnan-

RACING AT BRIGHTwooD.
Much Interest Centred in the Con-
tests This Afternoon.

The racing at Brightwood this afternoon
will, it is thought, prove exceptionally
good. The horses entered in the race to
road wagons are among the fastest in this
section. AS their respective records were
made to bike sulky, considerable curiosity
is expressed as TO their capacity to draw
weight miles at speed. Trials such as these
are the supremest test OF stoutness and
endurance.
The match races between Dot and Ham,
ilton, and Adah Wells and Louis c., will
doubtless draw the partisans of each horse
to the track to witness the contests. Side
betting is already heavy on the results.
The four-year-o stake race ought also
to prove a good card. Racing will begin
promptly at 2 p. m.
