EASY SURE THINGS"
Some Proportions That II IL Safe e
Bet Against.

Some Propositions That II IL Safe e
Bet Against.
There are many things which at first
thought appear to be easy enough Of
accomplishment that 1t is pretty safe
TO bet a man he cannot do. Most people
know that the human hands are not
strong enough to break a new laid egg
II the hands are clasped and the egg
laid endwise between the palms. 1t Is
said that the pressure required to break
an egg In this manner amounts to tons.
Among other safe bets Is a wager
that a man cannot rise from q chair
without bending forward or putting his
feet under the chair or outside Of 1t.
Many a man will back himself to give
another a start OF 80 yards in dash
Of 100, provided the man having the
start hops all the way. But no runner.
however swift, can give that amount Of
start to an ordinary man. For the first
Ave yards they 60 ut practically the
same pace. Therefore the runner to 60
05 yards while the hopper" goes As,
would have to run more than twice as
fast, and 1t would be q weak man who
COulu hOt hOp III a. u PuCt cquai
to 20 seconds for 100 yards, and that
would mean that the runner in order to
win would have to beat all previous
records.
If man boasts that his penknife Is
particularly sharp, ask him to cut with
one stroke Of the blade one of those
yellow ribbons, mostly of silk, which
come around bundles Of cigars. In 900
cases out of 1000 the knife is not sharp
enough to do this. 1t will cut through
all the ribbon but the last strand, and
that will pull out long, and the more
he tries to cut it the longer it will pull
out.
1t is safe to bet any one except a
blind man that he cannot stand with
out support of any kind for five min
utes at a stretch II he Is thoroughly
blindfolded without moving his feet
II he does not move his feet he is pretty
sure to topple over In about minute.

was liberated from the county Jail at
4.15 o'clock yesterday afternoon and
went away in company with one of his
daughters.
The order for his release was made
by judge Kelly after the formal ac-
knowledgement IN open court of the
famous deed. which Cannon refused to
sign. and which sheriff Schadt signed
Tor him under authority OF the new
act and by direction OF the court.
Cannon received word Of the order
for his release from Warden Simpson
al o'clock and at once busted himself
in packing up his belongings and put
ting on his good clothes. He was about
ready to put on his coat when his
daughter arrived.
His departure was almost wholly de-
void of dramatic incident. He shook
hands with Sheriff Schadt and Warden
Simpson as he was passing out and
while waiting for a car went across the
street to OHara's store to say good
bye 10 James O'Hara, who had called
on him frequently during his long in
generation.
He seemed to be we'll pleased upon
being a free man once more. He de-
MED to a Tribune reporter that he
wanted to stay in Jail and said: 81 am
well satisfied to get out All efforts
at drawing Cannon into an extended
talk on his release proved futile. 1t
was a grand opportunity for him to
boast of how he had kept his word
