KeepIng his balance.


There is a story told among the Tar.

ed men of the present day. II Is to
this effect; Robo. cousin OF the great
mogul. was condemned TO death for
participation in rebellion. The most
skillful swordsman In the empire was
provided for the execution. and the
great mogul and his court were present
as spectators.
The thin. keen blade flashed In the
sunlight and descended upon the bare
neck OF Robo. who stood upright to re-
ceive the stroke.
The execGtioner's work was so deft-
ly done thu hough the head was sew
cred, not a vital organ was disturbed.
Robo remained standing
"What. Robo, art thou not behead-
ed2" exclaimed the great mogul.
"My lord, | am" replied Robo. "but
az long as keep my balance right my
head will not fall on"
The great mogul was placated. A
band was put on Robo's neck. and be
recovered. He afterward became a
loyal subject and was made cashier OF
the empire because. as the great mogul
remarked:
''He knows that II he keeps his bal.

SENATOR ABBoTrs sUBTERFUGE

In an effort TO serve a political
friend who aspires TO run the affairs
of Milford Town Council, Senator Alb
bott not only deceived Senator Knox,
grossly. but also aroused the ind.gna-
tion OF the people OF the town, with
out regard 10 party affiiation. While
the town charter provided that the
floating Indebtedness OF Milford never
should exceed $4,000 the Addicks men
who controlled Council ran II up to
$1,000. or $1,000 above the legal
amount Before going to Dover this
Winter Senator Abbott promised
prominent citizens OF Milford that he
would acquaint them fully with the
provisions OF any town bill which
came before the Legislature for action,
and hold It up until they had had an
opportunity to consider 1t. A bill pro-
viding for loan OF SI0.vvV was intro
duced and killed. and the people OF the
town rested easy. Then they heard that
bill had been introduced and passed
amending the town charter. They
asked what it meant and we're told
that it merely cured some technical de
fects. and had nothing whatever to dg
with the finances. Finally some OF tn.
more suspicious men OF Milford got I
copy Of the bill, compared it with tn,

Philadelphia, Aug. 20-While a
large force of firemen were endeav.
oring to check fire in a nest of
burning oil tanks at the Atlantic
Oil Refining company's plant at
Point Breeze, in the southwestern
section of the city, about 1890
o'clock this morning, an immense
tank of benzoin exploded. Many
firemen were in close proximity
and fell victims to the blazing oil
and flying pieces of iron. Three
or four were killed and many were
badly burned before they could be
rescued by their more fortunate
companions. A general call was
telegraphed for ambulances and
patrol wagons, and the injured
were hurried to the hospitals in
lower end of the city.
