A MINISTER'S MISTAKE.

A city minister was recently handed q
notice to be read from his pulpit. Accom-
panying it was clipping from news
paper bearing upon the matter. The
clergyman started to read the extract and
found that it began: Take Kemp's Bal
SAM the best Cough Cure This was
hardly what he had expected, and, after
moments hesitation. he turned It over
and found on the other side the matter
intended for the reading. ~

The Mason's Laundry team and the
B. & F.'s crossed bats at Fourteenth
and r streets yesterday morning and
the former had a walk-over. The reg
ular pitcher for the B. & F. team being
out of town, Pendegast was put in, but
was very wild. Butler O'Brien and
Conrad were tried, but were unable to
locate the plate. Ruser was in fine
form, allowing only three hits, and
one was a scratch of the worst kind.
Carroll put up a fine game at second,
and Butler made a couple of catches
that are seldom seen. "A. Hellman
and Clark put up fine ball for the Ma
sons, also Nichols at short Butler,
Carol, Harmon and Peters each hit a
long twO-bagger.
Owing to the umpire's reputation as
a boxer, the decisions were all received
in silence.
Next Sunday the Masons go to Colusa
and will, without doubt, put up
very strong game.

Ready for the fray,

Or a series of earthquake shocks.
Gee, how the batters fan themselves
When Heidrick's in the box!

To witness a successful game
With Heidrck in the box
There may be others. but all the same.

There's nothing discovered yet

WALL FELL
And Only a Timely Warming
Saved the Lives and Limbs
of the WOrkmen.

For the third time the walls OF the
Greenwald building, which is being
torn down, fell and only a miracle
saved the lives OF eight or ten work
men who were cleaning up the rubbish
on the first floor. All the walls had
been torn down with the exception OF
the entire north wall, which had been
left standing. A bystander at the mar
ket house who was watching the men
at work noticed that the wall was
about to fall, and gave warning to the
men, who ran into the street. They
had hardly reached the street when
tons of brick and mortar fell upon the
very place they had been working
But for the warning given by the man
at the market house, eight or ten peo-
pie might have been killed.

LIVE IN NESTS.
The Busbmen of Australia Get Along
Like Beasts In the
Jungle.

You know that, of course, hut nests
and nest-building birds and animals are
so intimately associated with eggs in
some indefinite way, that in speaking Of
men who build nests to live in it may
not be out of place to emphasize the alb
sence of eggs.
Travellers who have returned from the
heart of Africa and the Australian con-
tinent tell wonderful stories of nest
building people who inhabit the wilds
of those countries.
In the bushmen of Australia we find
perhaps the lowest order of men that
are known. They are so primitive that
they do not know enough to build even
the simplest forms of huts for shelter.
The nearest they could approach to it
Is to gather a lot of twigs and grass,
and, taking them into a thicket or
Jungle, they build nest for home,
much as does bird. The nest is usual
ly large enough for the family, and II
the latter be very numerous then the
nests are of very large size.
Into this place they all turn and
snuggle and curl up together like 80
many kittens. Sometimes the foliage
win grow together and form sort of
natural covering, but there is never any
attempt at constructing a protection
from rain and storms, and 1t is marvel
how they can endure them.
When there is particularly good
piece of jungle for home sites it will
be quickly appropriated for the pur-
pose, and sometimes hundreds of these
nests will be found together in the
bush, as it is called.
But though the bushmen of our Aus
tralian colonies are the very lowest In
the scale of ignorance, they possess a
rare instinct that equals that of many
animals, and is in it's way as wonder
full as mans reason. 1t is almost impos.
sible for them to be lost. Even if they
be led away from their home blindfold-
ed for miles, when released they will
unerringly turn in the right direction
and make their way to their nest home
and, though these are all very similar
they never make Observation-Disclosures
