DON'T LOON FOR FLAWS.

Don't look for flaws as you go through hfej
And even when you find them
1t is wise and kind to be somewhat blind
And look for the virtue behind them.
For the cloudiest night has hint OF the light
Somewhere in its shadow hiding;
1t is better far to hunt for star
Than the spots on the sun abiding
The current Of life runs every way
To the bosom Of Gods great ocean;
Don't set your force 'gainst the rivers courss
And think to alter its motion.
Don't waste a curse on the universe;
Remember it lived before you.
Don't butt at the storm with your puny form
But bend and let 1t fly DER you
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your within to the letter;
Some things must go wrong your whole hft
long,
And the sooner you know It the better.
1t is folly to fight with the infinite,
And go under at last in the wrestle;
The wiser man shapes into Gods plan,
And the water shapes into the vessel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox in Progressive Age.

THE SUCTION OF TRAINS.

Unsolved Problems That Have to Do
with Modern Raiiroading.
"The theory that a moving train car
ries along an envelope of air is very in
teresting," said an engineer, "and l be-
lieYe there is good deal of truth in it.
first had my attention attracted to the
subject by a curious incident that hap
pened several years ago at crossing
near Birmingham, Ala, where trains
pass twice a day at a speed of about 40
miles an hour. The tracks are seven
feet apart, and there would seem to be
ample room to stand between them in
perfect safety. One afternoon a small
fox terrier dog belonging to q section
boss was asleep in the middle space and
woke up just as the trains closed in from
each side. There was a barrel ON the
ground near by, and the dog in his fright
jumped on top of it. That possibly
brought him into one Of the rushing en-
velopes of air. At any rate, he was
whirled off his feet and thrown clear to
the roof of the opposite car, where he
was subsequently found jammed against
a ventilator chimney, with no injury ex-
cept broken leg. How in the world he
ever made such journey and escaped
alive is a mystery unless his fall was
deadened by a cushion of air.
"Apropos of atmospheric pressure. 1t is
a well known fact that there is vortex
space or zone of suction directly behind
any rapidly moving train, and its pres
ence accounts for a grotesQue happening
that took place some time ago on the
Southern Pacific. While the California
bound express was going through west
ern Arizona ut clipping gait a passen-
ger who was on the verge of the jimjams
rushed out to the rear platform, climbed
on the rail and jumped off. He was
wearing a very long linen duster, and a
muscular tourist who happened to be on
the platform at the time grabbed it by
the tails as it sailed by and yelled for
help. When some of the others ran to
his assistance, they found the lunatic
stretched straight out in the air behind
the platform, bowling like a Comanche,
but safely anchored by his duster, which
had turned inside out and caught him at
the shoulders. The muscular gentleman
was hanging on for dear life, but had it
not been for the fact that the would be
suicide was virtually sustained and car
ried along by the suction of the vortex
space something would certainly have
given way. They reeled the man in. and
he promised to be good.

at present of the atmospheric conditions
that surround a moving train. A fuller
knowledge of them may lead to the solu-
ton Of some battling problems in trac-
tion."-New Orleans Times-Democrat

The superstition that ID is the harbin-
ger of misfortune met with a unique con-
tradiction in the case of Nansen. Thir-
teen was the number of his party on
board the Fran. But the lucky 10 of the
great explorer did not stop at the num-
Der of his party. He left his ship for the
north pole on March Is, 1895; the Fran
broke from the ice on Aug. Is, 1896, and
the same day Of the month. Curiously
enough, these slices of good luck were
mentioned at the thirteenth anniversary
dinner of the Geographical society, held
on Feb. ID, 1897. At the same banquet
Nansen stated that on Dec. ID, ID pups
were born on board the Fran.

STATE WAGON ROAD LEVY.

The state auditor has com !.
pleted the figures on the special
wagon road tax levies. These
levies are in addition to regular
levy.
In 1889, the legislature passed
bill providing for levy upon
all property in the state for wag-
on road purposes. This levy
was fixed at 2 cents on each 800
valuation in the state. -Four
years later, in 1893, another levy
of 3 cents on each 800 was made
by the legislature for the same
general purposes. The amounts
to be derived from each Of the
counties in the state is shown in

for the plaintiff, demurred to this

one Of the grounds for their demand
being that the verdict was not justi-

somewhat compl licated, but arose in
q suit on two promissory notes am

up their verdict. Judge Webber
holds, that sIf the commissions ac-
counts which NJ cMahon was to col

as the evidence seems to show, in
opinion, the evidence is INSULT
lcient to prove that his interest was
conveyed to Kyle. Mcmahon testi-

that NJ Mahon might credit $3.50 on

part Of Kyle. It does not appear to
have been accepted by Mcmahon.
TIE this evidence of Mcmahon that
