Close eau.

Albert Hall, Q years old, escaped
1sa+h almost miraculously.Z With a
,,,,I,,ber of boys he was playing about
,ne east end of the steel arch bridge
IN Minneapolis. Finally the boys de-
rided to climb under the end of the
bridge and catch doves. Young Hall
started under and slipped. He caught
hold of live wire with his left hand,
and the current began TO burn the
flesh. He was suspended from the
ground about forty feet. The river
was near by also, and it was feared
that if he freed himself from the wire
he would fall into the river.
One of his companions, realizing the
predieament he was in, caught hold OF
his body and pulled him from the
wire. Albert fell to the ground and
came within few feet of rolling into
the river. He was picked up badly
bruised and taken to the city hospital,
where his hand, which had been
frightfully burned. was dressed. 1t is
not believed he is dangerously in
iured. Later he was removed to his
home.

likewise, but the sentences were vowels
only.
There are about ten or dozen pure
vowels to go upon, and vowel words
may run up 10 five syllablcs, 50 we have
IA very considerable fund to draw on for
vowel streams, And these streams OF
vowel speech corresponded to and cN-
pressed streams of emotion or feeling
rather than descriptions Of concrete
objects. For we hardly realize how
terribly overladen with material triiles
our life is to-day, and therefore what
great demands we make on language
for concrete words. But our cxclamn'
tions, each OF which indicates single
emotion, tend to remain pure vowe
