construction at Harrison was blown
down by a storm last Tuesday.
Three men were working on the
building when the storm came up,

timbers. On the same day an un-

A Joke That Failed.


Professor Rogers and DIR. Dale were
once lecturinG in England, and at ev-
cry town which they visited DIR. Dale
noticed that his colleague, who always
spoke first, made the same speech. In
fact, so often did the professor give
that speech that the worthy doctor
knew it off by heart, and this fact led
the latter to think of way of taking
the wind out of his friends sails.
On their arrival at a town in south
Lancashire DR.. Dale asked DIR. Rogers
to allow him to speak first, an arrange
ment to which the latter readily
agreed, so DIR. Dale rose and proceeded
to deliver the speech of DIR. Rogers.
looking every now and then out of the
corner of his eye to see how that wor-
thy gentleman was taking this practi-
cal joke. DIR. Rogers sat calm and COM
posed, and when at length his turn
came to speak he just as calmly rose
and delivered, TO DIR. Dale's utter as
constituent, quite new speech.
At the conclusion of the meeting DIR.
Dale said to his colleague:
'1 thought had taken the wind out
of your sails tonight"
DIR. Rogers replied: "Oh. no. I de-
Iivered that speech when I was here q
month ago"

Tn. Cannon and Science.

The president of the French Acade-
my OF Sciences remarked i'm a recent
address that the cannon is one of the
most instructive laboratories that sci
ence possesses. 1t was the modern can
non. he said, which suggested the appli-
cation of explosive gases to the driving
of engines. The experience of the i'm
mense pressures obtained in cannon
also led to the use of pressures In
steam machines which a few years
ago would have been regarded as inn
practicable. Thus experiments intend
ed primarily for the purposes of war
had resulted in the advance of the tri-
umphs of peace.

Took nlm at nI. word.

Men on newspapers often have
peculiar experiences" said w. y. Fair
child of Chicago land such a one be
fell friend of mine some time ago.
The friend in question was city editor
of a great daily. and in the course of
his manifold duties il fell TO his lot to
take to task one of his reporters. The
reporter in question was an English
man, slow of thought and action and
misery of speech. Through the TRADE
to which he was subjected he said
nothing. and when it finally ended he
left the presence of his superior with
out any comment.
But. as the result proved, he did
some tall thinking. City editors when
'riled,' as is well known, are not par
ticularly choice or economical in the
language they 'bestow on their unfor-
tunate reporters. and among other
things the Englishman had been told
that he was no better than-in fact.
was-a crazy man and that his proper
habitat was lunatic asylum and not
the hall bedroom Of n Chicago board
ing house which lie occupied.
The Englishman took this part of
the city editors remarks as his text and
acted upon them. He promptly went
TO an asylum, had himself thoroughly
examined by three or four alienists
and secured from them an official GER
titicate to the fact that he was sane.
