A Surnrise in BrookIyu.

An adults food that can save a baby

A Brooklyn man says: when baby was
about eleven months old he began to
grow thin and pale. This was at first,
attributed to the heat and the fact that
his teeth Were coming, but. in reality, the
poor little thing was starving, his
mothers milk not being sufficient nour

One day, after he had cried bitterly for
an hour, i suggested that my wife try
him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked two
teaspoonfuls in a saucer with little
sugar and warm milk. This baby ate 80
ravenously that she fixed a second. which
no likewise finished. It was not many
days before he forgot all about being
nursed, and has since lived almost eX-

Dec. oath, Willis E. Hoss left his
fathers ranch, in Antelope district,
with load of potatoes which he was to
deliver to purchaser in Jackson. He
had proceeded about five or six miles.
when, the road being so rough and the
morning so dark, he decided to halt
until daylight. During the stop he fell
into slight dose from which he was
aroused by succession of blood
curdling screams from mountain lion.
He whipped up his team and got out
of that locality as soon as possible, but
the lion followed him for several miles
making the morning ring with his
frightful yelps, At one time, the lion
came up abreast of the team, at short
distance to one side, and uttered a
number of screams, but he approached
no nearer. Young Hoss says he wants
no more company of that kind through
the woods on dark morning.

Preacher Defends Lynching.

AT the weekly meeting in Chicago
last Monday OF the Methodist ministers
OF the city, Rev. W. B. Leach, of
Wicker Park, caused a sensation by
defending the recent lynching of q
negro, Preston Porter, of Colorado.
Resolutions denouncing the lynching
were under discussion when DIR. Leach,
after reviewing the affair, said:
'lf such deed were committed on a
member of my family 1 would be the
first to apply the torch.'
Kisses, long and loud, greeted this
statement. Several ministers sprang
to their feet to reply.
Rev. Mr.. Level declared the min
ister's remarks did not surprise him,
for he had heard Mr. Leach utter SINH
lar sentiments several years ago. Rev.
Mr.. Crawford declared that if such
sentiments were circulated by the pull
pit there would be no laws; that min
listers had no right to condemn Judges
and juries if they themselves did not
uphold the law.
Other ministers denounced the speech
as tending toward lawlessness and
anarchy, and the mass of opposition
etfectually buried the subject.
