log committee of the Mississippi and
Rum River Boom company was re-
elected this morning at the offices in
the Kasota building. 1t consists OF
H. G. Akeley, G. A. Smith and B. F.
Nelson.
In bidding for the stray logs OF the
coming season, the lumberlnen had
quite a bit of fun, and in q spirit OF
levity ran the price up until they
were finally knocked down to Nc
Mullen & Go. for. $3.50. The strays
do not cut much figure. Last year
they ran under 10000 feet and are
not likely to go much over this
amount this year. But some one
must take them each year, and the
only way ts to sell them at auction.
The price5was above the last years
and more than the market price for
logs this year. ...- 49,

It is most interesting sight to behold
one Of these giant ipl~oods fall. The
process Of cutting is effected through the
use, Of the az and the saw. All axes are
double faced, through which much time
10 saved In sharpening. Sometimes the
axes start the cut on both sides Of the
trunk and at places about opposite each
other through the thickness Of the tree.
After the chopping has penetrated to the
depth Of about two feet on each side the
saw Is started In the line Of the incision
and the job completed with that instru-
ment. Generally, however, the direction
In which the tree Is to fall Is determined.
and the cut Ia made in that side to the
depth of one to three feet. Then the
choppers pass to the opposite side and be-
gin saving at a point several feet higher
than the place Of the incision. AS the
saw moves through the heart Of the giant
he begins to sag down on the side where
the wound is gaping. In doing this he
lifts apart the cut and opens the section
which the saw Is making, thereby keep
ing free play for the saw. This il aided
at times by driving wedges at the place
where the saw entered. .,>.
Presently it is apparent that the section
is opening wider and wider and that the
tree Is beginning to lean away from the
cutters. They continue with their work
a moment longer, then is heard the crack.
ing Of the wood 6bers in front Of the saw
teeth. Another swish Of the saw, and
these increase. They give report like
firing pistols and the rapidly Of detona.
ton Of Calling gun. The sounds, get.
ting more rapid. presently merge into a
continuous roar. Then If you are stand
ing near by and the tree is large you will
get the impression that everything above
is coming to earth, that the whole forest
Is falling. The great mast starts slowly
to topple, cracking and exploding ever
louder at its base, until with a fearful
momentum it comes sprawljng down,
cracking and crashing and roaring and
hitting the earth with clump and thump
as IL a whole broadside of ID inch bombs
had simultaneously struck bastion.
Ia The choppers quickly run over tho
trunk with their axes and cut away all
the branches. Almost before you can re-
cover yourself the long stalk is bare Of
limbs, and then the men begin cross cut

80 feet.\a long as it is desired that the

Shoes I'm Olden DAYS.

Early Britons wore shoes Of raw cow
hide, with the hairy surface outward.
The Anglo-Saxons showed an advance,
for they were black and laced by leath-
er thong. Then came what might almost
be termed the bag shoe of the Merovingi-
an period, tied round the ankle, similar
easy sort of covering obtaining in Ger
many, and SO by gradual stages from the
medieval shoes to the poulaine shoes, a
queer early German specimen, the band
round the ankle being of engraved brass.
The Irish shoe Of early date Is worthy Of
note, as for many years the Irish went
not only barefooted, but barelegged,
while their bodies were most gorgeously
arrayed.

The Causes That Indrcc This ConG&.
ton and Its Various Phases.

The Causes That Ind"cc This C0n0&~
ton and Its Various Phases.
It is often difficult when person Is
found unconscious to determine the cause
Of the condition. Yet this determination
is Of the greatest Importance, since upon
1t must depend the treatment and per-
haps the life Of the sufferer.
OF course this Is task for the physi-
clan, and it is often one that taxes his
acumen to the utmost. But there are
certain signs which every one may learn
to know and 50 be prepared to prevent
maltreatment before the physician ar
rives.
The chief causes of a sudden loss of
consciousness are apoplexy, Bright's dis.
ease, diabetes, drunkenness, opium poi
soning, injury to the head, epilepsy and
! fainting.
A person found unconscious should be
placed on his back, the clothes, especial
~ those about the neck, should be loosen
ed, and he should have plenty Of air, Gu
rious spectators being kept at distance.
II the breath smells of alcohol, the first
thought is that the man is drunk, but it
is most unsafe to assume this to be the
case without corroborative evidence. The
man may have taken drink just before
the accident befell him, or he may have
been slightly drunk, and in that condi-
ton he may have had stroke of apo
plexy or have fallen or been struck a
blow on the head, or some bystander may
have poured whisky down his throat with
the mistaken idea Of helping him.
The head should first be examined to
see II the skull is broken, II there is
wound of the scalp or If blood is coming
from one of the ears, which is q sign Of
Z fracture Of the base Of the skull.
Note should be taken Of the breathing.
If It Is very slow, six or eight times or
less minute, the probability Is that the
case Is one of opium poisoning. II the
respiration is rather slow and snoring,
with blowing out of the lips and Of one
cheek, apoplexy or conclusion Of the
brain may be suspected.
In Inconsistencies resulting from
Bright's disease the breathing is usually
more rapid and not noisy. and in that re-
sulting from diabetes the inspiration is
slow and prolonged, while expiration is
short and quick.
A drunken man can usually be aroused
temporarily II spoken to in a loud voice
or pricked with a pin, and the same is
true Of one suffering from Bright's dis
ease. but in apoplexy and opium poison
ing the Inconsistencies is usually com.
plete. T.
Unconsciousness may be hysterical in
It's nature and may simulate any Of the
types mentioned above. A dash Of cold
water in the face will often restore con-
seriousness with great rapidity in such q
case.-Youth's Companion. 4. ,~.

In this city who to my certain knowledge
had made about Is different Wills. OF
course there are people in the world who
have a mania for will making. just 40
there are manias In other directions, but
there was distinct method In this wouIs
ans madness. She made her numerous
wills for the deliberate purpose Of excit-
ing cupidity and then profiting by It. and
II the true story Of the curious complica-
tons growing out Of that policy could be
written It would form an astonishing
chronicle of greed and duplicity.
ITO begin. with, she had q couple Of
pieces Of improved property worth per-
haps $4,000 and lot OF personal belong
ings which were mere junk and rubbish,
but which she valued ut fabulous fig
ure. Between the two she was reputed
to be worth from $50, 900 to sec, 1000, and
there was much jealousy as to the pro-
spective succession among lot Of distant
relatives. The old woman's plan was to
take up her quarters with some particu-
lar set of her kin and make a will in their
favor. Needless to say, she would be
treated with every consideration, but she
was irascible and invariably got into a
quarrel in the course of few months
and moved somewhere else, where the
same programme was repeated. She
spent years in migrations of that sort, go
ing the rounds Of her relatives several
times and camping temporarily with nu-
merous personal friends.
"When she finally died, it was found
that her last authentic will left the covet-
ed property to niece who had shown
her scarcely any attention at all. and the
wall Of rage and disappointment that
arose was something simply terrific.
dare say she cngendered more family bit
tcrness when she was alive, prccipitated
more rows and was instrumental in caus-
ing greater number of people to stop
speaking when they passed by than any
one person In the parish. This was an
extreme case, but it was by no means
unique. Almost every lawyer in town
who has large general practice could
cite instances where judicious will max
ing has kept old age surrounded by affec-
tionate solicitude. New Orleans Times

why They Are So Salty.

Compared with the waters of the Dead
sea, those Of the Salt lake are decid-
eddy fresh, and 4 scientific man whom
met in London gave me this explanation
Of the cause of their extreme saltiness:
All water carries percentage Of salt,
and in both the cases of the Dead sea and
the Great Salt lake there Is no outlet to
the lakes, and they maintain their levels
through evaporation. Through the count
less centuries during which they have ex-
listed this salt, since it does not evapo-
rate, has accumulated until these bodies
Of water have attained their present
brackish condition.-:New York Tribune.
