JoE H1TE SUSPECTED

Suspicion as to the identity of the
man who struck Charlie Funk without
reason on the street Monday evening
has centered on Joe .Hite and war
rant having been issued in the justice
court for that young man, the officers
have been looking for him. 1t was re-
ported that he had gone to LaHarpe
and search was made there but the
officers were told that he had gone to
Rich Hill, Mo. Members of the fam
lily have been trying to arrange the
case, and if, as seems probable, Joe
is the man, he made a mistake by
running away. One theory OF the
blow is that it was case of mis-
taken identity, but in any event the
costs are rapidly piling up and COM
ments on the unwarranted violence
are far from gentle.

Teddy's First OratOry.

A Phoenix gentleman lately re-
ceived from friend in New York the
following story of the school days of
Governor Roosevelt showing that he
has made vast Improvement in ora
tory within the last thirty years:
Theodore Roosevelt was not al
ways the fluent orator and ready eX-
temporaueous speaker that he is to-
day, but this is not IA matter of sur
prise, as precocity is never proof of
greatness, although it has in many
instances characterized those who af-
terward became great. Theodore
Roosevelt was a wide awake, hustling
youth, good at his books but better at
his sports, lover of all outdoors,
and hearty, healthy, sturdy Ameri-
can boy. At school he was required
to write essays, deliver orations,
speak pieces, just as are all school
boys in these modern days, and his
old playmates still delight to relate
how Ted brought the house down by
his method of rendering that old
standby, Marco Bozzaris.' Every
body knows at least the beginning OF
the stirring poem:
AT midnight in his guarded tent
The Turk lay dreaming of the hour
When Greece, her knees in suppliance
bent,
Should tremble at his power.
"When Young Roosevelt's turr
came to speak he rose with all con
fdence and began:
AT midnight in his guarded tent,
The Turk lay dreaming of the hour
When Greece, her knees
"Then his memory failed him anC
he repeated:
{" Greece, her knees
"In vain; his memory stubbornl,
. refused to work. Once more he shout
9 ed desperately:
e /" Greece, her knees
1.-The old professor looked owe
!. his spectacles and encouraging
+ remarked:
$ " Grease her knees once more
a Theodore; perhaps she'll go then "

STRUCK HIN AND THEN RAN
Charlie Funk Knocked Down by a
Stranger Who Disappeared.
No Reason For the Blow.

Charlie Funk, a youngman from the
country who is stopping in lola and
attending the high school, was the
victim of cowardly assault on the
street Tuesday He waswith several
boys and had just started west from
the post Office when a young man
walked up and hit him vicious blow
in the face. He was not expecting it
and neither lodged nor tried to ward
it off and he went down on the walk
limp and almost unconscious.
His assailant started to run inn
mediately and by pulling his hat low
over his eyes and dodging among the
people on the street, escaped down
Madison avenue. Someone called:
"Stop that fellow" but it all happened
too quickly for anyone to understand
and the fellow escaped.
The police have suspicion as to
the identity of the man who struck the
blow and are looking for him. Funk
was picked up by friends and takenltc
his room on South Walnut street. He
said he did not know who hit him anC
knew of no reason why anyone should
want to strike him.
Guy Funk is a son Of Mrs. Funk
a widow who lives in Elm township
The family is one of the most highl!
esteemed in the entire township anC
the boys have ever conducted them
selves as gentlemen. A warrant wal
sworn out Tuesday in the justice cour'
and the guilty party will be trotteC

Turkish Police Lustice.

A trifllng dispute between a Kurd
and an Armenian on street in Con-
stantinople the other day led to an
amusing instance of justice as it is dis.
pensed by the Turkish police.
A tobacco box was found on the pave.
ment as alleged, by Kurd. An Ar
menian claimed the box as his own.
Neither would give in, and the dispute
waXed warm. From words they were
near coming to blows when police
man came up, but he could not decide
the question of ownership.
At last the Armenian suggested that
the policeman ask what was in the box.
Tobacco and cigarette paper" said
the Kurd promptly.
The box contains nothing but 10
pasters," said the Armenian. smiling.
The officer opened the box and, find
ing the Armenian was right. settled the
dispute by giving him the box.
The Armenian is the owner of the
box" he said. THE Kurd Is a liar"
Here he smote the Kurd over the
head. "Allah be praised For my trou-
BILE in deciding this complicated affair

Two distinct varieties of cavlare are
manufactured in Russia-the granulat-
ed and the pressed forms. The granu-
lated form Is obtained by passing the
fish roes under pressure through fine
meshed sieve. The small eggs pass in
tact, but the envelopes are retained in
the sieve. TO these pure salt is added
In the proportion Of one-twentieth or
one-fortieth. 1t Is intimately mixed
with the eggs by means of a kind of
wooden spoon. The caviare is then
ready for consumption. 1t is packed
in round metallic boxes of one and Il
half to FIVE pounds and enveloped in
parchment for transportation. The
pressed caviare keeps better than the
granulated form.
To obtain 1t the fresh caviare is treat
ed with solution of salt at % degrees
Baume until the eggs acquire a GER
tain degree of hardness. This opera
tion requires considerable skill and ex-
perience. If allowed to stay in the So
luton too long, the cavare will be too
salty. and If not long enough the eggs
cannot be preserved. The caviare Is
then put into small sacks, which are
pressed under screw press to drive
out the excess of salt 1t is packed in
barrels containing up to 1000 pounds
or left in the original sacks. which
measure by 20 inches. The average
export Of pressed caviare for the three
years 1896 to 1898 has been more than
1900 tons representing a value of ST..
400 ,0O0.-Scientfic American.

There will be two football games in
Columbus next Saturday afternoon.
According to the schedule of the o. NJ.
u. eleven, the Medcs were to have op-
ened the season at Athens with the
Ohio University, but the Ohio univer-
sity boys called the game off by wire
yesterday, leaving the medics without
any engagement.
Coach Tnglis Immediately wired
Marietta, making them an offer for a
game in Columbus Saturday afternoon
and the Marietta boys snapped it up as
If they liked 1T. Not only did they ac-
cept the date, but they showed how
they felt about 1T by wiring back the
following message: I'VE accept our
easy victims" When Coach Inglis re-
ceived that telegram it took his breath
away for "a minute and he is not so
sure yet that the Medics are not up

Washington and Jefferson eleven two
years ago and who was a substitute on

he would be here before the end of the
