strange thing. I wonder what they
would say to the balloons Of to-day,
could they see them?
Look at Fig l. 1t is made of two
sheets Of tissue paper pasted together
tern drawn on 1t and cut out.
Twelve of these patterns go to make
the balloon, and they must be pasted
together to make the shape Of Fig. 2.
There is an opening at the top, which
must be covered by a circle of tissue
paper. For the bottom, get some wire
and twist It into a ring. and then tdrn
the edges of the paper round It. In
this way you have a round opening that
viii not lose its shape. Fasten a cross
wire, to which you have fastened bit
Of sponge or cotton wool, across this
opening, and your balloon is quite
ready for flight. How is it to be sent
up? Here the aid OF father must be
called in, although l expect that the
beg who can make the balloon properly
will be able to do the rest safely. First

A New Game.

Two fans, one for yourself and one
FOR the person whom you are going to
play with, and a small sponge, are all
you need for this game. Toss the
sponge in the air, and hit it with your
fan to your comrade and he will hit it
back to you. AZ the beginning of the
game each person has fifty points, and
whoever lets the sponge drop on the
floor loses one point. The game is
kept up until one OF the two has no
points. He is the loser and the other
is the winner.

"HEALERS !" LEAVE.
Men Who Claim Divine Power to Cure
Ills Go to Wichita

The two men who claim to be divine
healers and have been attracting much
attention on the streets during the past
week by reason of flowing hair and
cross covered clothes, left Topeka last
night for Wichita. They took with
them considerable of Topeka money,
donated by the people who went to
them either on the streets or at their
rooms for healing"
The two men camped for the last
time at the corner of Sixth and Kansas
avenue last night, and dozens of people,
black and white, presented themselves.
One of the men did the healing" and
the other looked after the securing of
cash The healer grasped the hands
of each person as he or she came be-
fore him, held them awhile, then press
ed upon the spinal cord at the back of
the neck until the patient squirmed,
gOuged into the ears and pressed the
eyes, and told the man or woman to
pass on One boy who was brought up
for healing by his father was hyDnO-
tized by this performance and was not
right" for several minutes.
Several of the people claimed to have
experienced a peculiar feeling when the
healer laid hands on them. but 9TH
ers denied that they were affected in
the least. Sam Radges, who took sew
eral treatments for his eyes. says the
healer is simply an ordinary magnetic
healer, and only helps those whose COM
plants are affected by animal magnet
ism. The treatment failed to help Mr..
RadgeS' sight.

QUARREL OVER $4,000.
Will Tiresome Agricultural College
Squabble Never End.

W. T. Yoe, treasurer Of the board of
regents of the state agricultural college
and G. B. Hoffman, ex-treasurer, who
was removed by Governor Stanley's
legislative investigating committee,
are in a dispute over a remittance of
$4,000 from the general government at
Washington. This remittance is under
the Hatch law, giving national aid to
state agricultural colleges.
The department treasurer forwarded
the check to Hoffman, not knowing
that there had been a change brought
about by the legislative investigating
committee. This gave Hoffman an op-
portunity to renew the claim that he
is treasurer of the board of regents, a
title which he seeks to acquire perman-
emily by having the verdict of the COM
mittee reversed in the court of appeals.
When YOe learned of the mistake he
informed the treasurer at Washington
and the next move is expected to fol-
low by a request for the return of the
draft by Hoffman
Hoffman is now holding the draft in
his bank at Enterprise. Yoe was shrewd
enough to make no demand on Hoffman
but referred the matter back to Wash
ingtOn.
Since the college is not needing
money at this time the contention is
really between HOffman's bank and the
bank in which the state college moneys
are deposited at Manhattan.

TRANs-slBERIAN ROAD.
Opens Up a Vast Region of the Finest
Wheat Lands on Earth.

New York, Sept. ia special to the
Herald from Washington says:
American farmers are to have COM
petition from a new quarter in the
wheat market of the world. Consul
Mona CHAN at Chemnitz, in a report TO
the state department, gives interesting
details of the agricultural possibilities
of Asiatic Russia vast region which
is being brought into touch with the
European market by the construction
of the Transsiberian railroad
Mr. Monaghan says that this vast
territory is destined to be one of the
worlds richest and most productive
sections. 1t is particularly well adapt
ed to the growing of wheat and other
cereals and since the building of the
TranssibeTian road wheat from this
region has already found its way to the
European market.
At present the resources of this region
are largely undevelOped and must re-
main so for some years as the popula-
ton is as yet very sparse, there being
less than one inhabitant to each square
mile immigration from European
Russia is setting in however, and AGO.,
900 persons entered the region last year.
Mr. Monaghan says:
Siberia and the Amur country pos
sess advantages very similar to those
of North America, Australia and parts
of Africa. The great gain to Russia
at present in developing Siberia is the
guaranty that her harVests will come
nearer to supplying her wheat needs"
