Man Compared.

II man grew as fast in proportion as
a silkworm, he would be bigger than
an elephant in two months. If he
could navigate as fast in proportion
as the average house fly, he could cross
the Atlantic and back in the time it
takes him to eat his breakfast. If he
had as many eyes in proportion as the
butterfly, he would have 10000, to say
nothing of an extra pair in his head
for skylights. If he could spring as
far in proportion as the spider, he
could jump over the tallest tree In
California, and it wouldn't bother him

A Joke ON ORenbach.

M. Ernest Blum told joke which
he and some friends played on Often
bach when "La Belle Helene" was
about to be produced. The composer
was most anxious that his airs should
not get about before the first night and
had asked all his company to be most
careful not to let any one hear them,
but his tunes were SO catchy that it
was impossible to help singing them.
One day Blum and his friends were
sitting opposite Offenbach in. cafe
when one of them began to hum lead
ing air Of LA Belle Helene"
"Who taught you that?" cried Often
bach in rage.
"No one," replied Blum. "I have
known it for ages" and they all agreed
that their nurses used to sing it to
them when they were children. Pres
emily Albert Wolff, who was one Of the
party, began to sing another Of the
airs.
"Whatr' cried Offenbach, '.you know
that tooY'
81 composed it myself" said Wolff.
OHenbach then saw that they were
playing practical joke on him and de-
manded the name Of the singer who
had sung them the opera. They re-
fused, and so the composer threatened
that he would fine every one in the
theater unless they told him. So Blum
and his friends stood up and began
the first chorus of the first act and de-
clared they would sing the finale before
the whole cafe unless Offenbach re-
Tented. The composer, in terror for
his music, gave in, beaten by his own
facility in writing music.

DIED.
Hiss FlOy Haight.

Floy, the seventeen years old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. F. M
Haight, died at the home Of her par
ents late Wednesday afternoon,
August 18th, after lingering illness
with consumption.
The funeral was held at the
Methodist church at two o'clock
Thursday afternoon, being conducted
by the Rev. T. E. Archer. The oc-
casion was a very impressive one,
Rey. Archer using in his address
many extracts from what the young
lady wrote during her last illness
after being deprived of the power of
speech. Music was furnished by
choir composed of Mrs. Pearce, Miss
Colyer and Pepper, Mr.. Van SAINT
and Mr.Pepper. Mrs .Pearce's Sunday
school class, of which the deceased
was member, we're present in
body and acted as an escort.
Miss Ffoy Haight was born at
Columbia, S. D., July IA, 1883. She
has been a resident of Morris with
her parents for the past tour years,
during which time she has become
endeared to all who knew her. For
the past year she has been slowly
sinking with consumption, but has
borne with great faith and fortitude
the slow oncoming Of the dread sum
mons. That one SO young should be
taken away in the bloom of youth is
particularly sad, but in their sorrow,
the relatives of the deceased have the
sympathy of all that knew the sweet
character of the deceased.

FOUR BUSHELS PER ACRE.
That is What III. w. Stone s Co.
Thresh From Forty Acres.

AAA SCA AOhA Va ~ EASASo'
The first threshing in the county
from which returns have come in is
that of H. W, Stone & Co., who on
Thursday began their threshing of
wheat on a forty west Of the river.
From this forty acres, they threshed
an average of four bushels to the
acre. This is very surprising re-
suit as the field appeared to be about
the average of the fields of the county
and has been estimated by good
farmers as yielding as high as ten
bushels to the acre, tbs to be hoped
that this discouraging result is not
an indication of conditions through
out the entire county.
More threshing is to be doneto-dav
and by next week, most of the ma
chimes will be at work.
The rains of last week must haYe
injured the wheat twenty-five per
cent, as many of the shocks, except
where they have been turned are
moulding and sprouting, In the low
sections of the county there is some
good wheat which has not yet been
cut, on account Of water standing on
the fields. Whether it will be cut at
all is merely matter of the drying
of the fields before the wheat falls
over.

LOSE A LEG.

SAID THAT JULIAN RALPH, WAR

LONDON DAILY MAIL WILL
LOSE A LEG AS A RESULT OF
WOUNDS.
London, May 31.-Julian Ralph, the
well known newspaper correspondent,
arrived in London yesterday, invaded
through the injuries received in South
Africa. He will probably lose one of
his legs.
A London dispatch on Feb. 3 said
that Mr.. Knight, a wounded cores
pondent of the Morning Post, who had
arrived there, reported that Mr.. Ralph
had been wounded in the abdomen at
Belmont by a spent shell. Another
dispatch received from London last
week said that p war correspondents
have been killed or have died of disease
during the a The Daily Mail, this
dispatch said, had been particularly
unfortunate, as ten of it's correspond
ents a been put GU of service by
death or illness. Mr.. Ralph was one
Of the ten.
Uhe report of Julian Ralph's mis-
fortune will have a considerable degree
of local interest as Mr.. Ralph was in
the city about ten years ago on a trip
for Harper's. He was entertained in
the city and met a number of resi-
dents. He was one of the brightest
descriptive writer's on the Harper's
staff at that time and has executed
many a difficult and, at times, peril
GUS mission for them.)
