Professor Baume for several years
has performed the Monte Cristo" feat

with knife in his hand, he would be
flung into the water from a height.
Then he would cut the sack open and

into the water as straight as an arrow.
A moment later the sack appeared
above the water empty, and also the
mans clothes, which were at once

baited breath. Two minutes went by.
Then Baume's body appeared, head
uppermost, and half out of the water,
and then disappeared. 1t was thought
he had come up to breathe. The excite
ment increased. Six minutes passed, and
then men came with boat hooks mo-
ment later, and they drew out of the
water the lifeless body of the diver.

on it, presented such horrible sight

Yet the most intelligent races like to
build tunnels, and many live in under
ground homes. In London large tun-
nels have been built, in Boston one has

the coal mines of England and many
mines in the United States, Mexico
and other countries human beings live
underground and enjoy good health.
There are more people living under

The best corn in Kansas is found
between Concordia and Stockton, on
the Central branch. Farmers out there
say that three weeks more of seasona-
Bile weather will mature the greatest
crop in the history of the state. The
crop is safe now so far as rain is con-
cerned. The only danger is hot winds,

from, are under water,-Atchison

Saltcellars first came into use in

three quarts. The salt was placed
about the middle OF the tables length.
