Every one of the crowd fired, or, rath

ofthe guns went off, When they fired
he started to run, but the stones rolled
under his feet and he fell in the dam
over his head. When he came up he

two-thirds of the way across and came
to rock that stood up out Of the Wa

GREW LEG BONES BY THOUGHT
John Espy of Xcnia, o., Reproduces
Four Inches of Crushed Limb

5. w. Winter, who lives at POI First
avenue, Joliet, H., vouches for case
similar to the one published in the Sun
day Inter Ocean of two weeks ago in
which Mrs. $. Y. Hughes Graham of
Chicago told OF the growing On of a. fin
ger by the power of thought
John Espy of Nenia, O., Il cousin of
Winters, succeeded in reproducing by
mental process four inches of bone in
the lower part of his leg between the
knee and the ankle. Some years ago
hitched 10 al old-fashioned threshing ma
chine. The horses ran away. the ma
chine was overturned, and Espy's leg
was caught between the wheels and
crushed to a jelly. He was taken to
Nenia. O., and physicians declared at
once that the only way TO save his life
was to amputate the leg at the knee
joint. Young Espy declared that he
would rather take his chances and try
to save the leg. The wounded limb was
bandaged and put in an improvised
swing.
At the end Of six weeks the crushed
bone had worked out, leaving about four
inches of boneless, bruised flesh The
doctors continued to insist upon amputa-
ton, but the boy and his parents stuck
to their belief that the bones would grow
III again, and thought all the time of
such miraculous cure. Within three
weeks from the time the old bone came
out the new bone grew in. The leg be-
came as strong as ever, but a triie
shorter, so that Espy walked with a

American VS.. European Roads.

In spite of the pride of the American
people in the development of our cities.
and Notwithstanding the fact that their
best, they have been slow to appreciate
the value of thoroughly well-paved
streets. AS stated by Albert Shaw, Eu-
ropean cities have been ahead of us in
accepting the doctrine that smooth and
clean highways are a wise investment
from every point of view. and that so
long as the work is done in a thorough
and scientific manner the result is worth
having, regardless of cost No CITY
should think itself rich enough to pros
per without them, and no city is so poor
that it cannot afford them if it has any
reason whatever for continued existence"
From Modern City Roadways,'' by
Nelson P. Lewis in Appleton's Popular
Science Monthly.

Ditch Rider" of !rrigating States.

One of the newest of occupations is
that of ditch rider IN the Western
states which have large irrigating canals.
The ditch rider" patrols the ditch
throughout the season of actual operation
to see that the works are in good repair
and to superinteld the proper distribu
ton OF water 10 the various stockholders
or irrigators from the system. Where a
ditch is not longer than twelve or fifteen
miles, one ditch rider is expected to pa
troll its entire length. but upon more ex
tensive systems several may he required.
In the latter case the canal is divided
into divisions each of which is patroled
by 8 separate rider and the length Of a
division depends upon the character of
the duties, varying with the amount OF
repairs the danger of breaks and leaks.
and the number OF regulating gates to
lock after. The average length of di
vision is from twelve to fifteen miles. and
the average compensation for the work
ranges from $50 to $40 Il month. ont of
which he must pay his own board and
furnish and maintain his own horse and
cart.
