Life.

An operation which consisted In the
seyering OF the jugular vein was per-
formed by DIR. stephen A. Lutz. OF
brooklyn, on William A. Pother. The
patient will probably recover MIR.
Pothier has been troubled for some
time with n disease known TO the
medical profession as cholestealomn,
but to the laity as an obscess behind
the ear. On Wednesday last slight
operation was performed to deter
mine the exact location of the disease
and several incislons were made
The abscess was found to be near
the jugular vein and the second and
more serious operation was decided
upon by the attending physician as
necessary in order to prevent the poi
son from reaching the heart by means
of the jugular vein. The jugulnr vein
on the left side of the neck was sew
erred and both ends were tied. The sew
ering OF the vein prevented all possi-
bility OF impurities reaching the
heart, An operation somewhat simi-
lar to this one was performed, II is

Girl Wouldn't Stand Up

A marriage license was issued last
evening at O'Clock to James Sprague
and Elsie Parker, maid Of is summers,
and the hour for the marriage was set
lori O'Clock, says the Pendleton Tribune.
The wedding party went in group to
Justice Thomas FiIzyerald's office, all
so merry that they did not notice the
thoughtful, downcast look on the young
girl's face. They gathered before the
Justice ready for the cen mony. When
the groom and his promised bride were
asked to step forward, she refused to
take any further part in the ceremony.
The little company was startled and
looks Of wonderment passed from one
to another. Judge Fitzger aid stood with
solemn mien waiting. Friends gather.
ed around the girl, but she could not be
persuaded TO take the final step. After
an hour OF pleading by the groom and
his friends, the party left the room.
The young girl gave no reason, but
II il thought she had not consulted her
parents, and had been induced TO elopo
and becoming repentant, had decided
not to get married. Her parents live
at Csmas Prairie, but she has been
visiting at Roach Bros ranch on Mckay

Burning Dynamite.

Two men, who were working in
tunnel in this county, recently expert
enced very uncomiortably narrow
escape from death or serious injury.
At their request their names are omit
ted from the narrative.
The tunnel where they were working
is being driven into the face OF very
steep rock cliff and for convenience the
blacksmith shop is situated just at the
mouth OF the tunnel so tha, the only
way in or out of the tunnel is through
the shop. One night, as they were
working with drill and hammer their
attention WAS attracted by peculiar
roaring sound and looking towards the
mouth OF the tunnel they discovered the
blacksmith shop apparently in bright
fame. Instantly they realized what
had happened. The box Of giant
powder which had been left near the
fire to thaw had caught fire in some
unknown manner and was burning
briskly. The startled workers could
not tell what instant the burning
powder might explode nor when the fire
might reach box Of caps which were
in the shop and whose ign ition would
certainly precipitate the explosion, but
they were certain that II they stayed in
the tunnel they would be smothered
by smoke. They made a quick decision
to run for ii and bolted out through the
shop and up the steep trail to a point ol
safety. There they stopped and
observed the FIRE which had ignited the
shop and was increasing every instant.
1t occurred to them that 1t was too bad
to let the shop, the product OF so much
hard labor, burn up with all the tools
without an effort being made to save
them, so one of the men, absolutely
taking his life in his hand, returned to
the burning chop, secured the caps and
took them out, then seized the box oI
burning powder and pitched it far down
the cliff. extinguished the fire and saved
the property,
1t is characteristic OF the nature o
giant powder that this did not explode
even when falling considerable dis
tance upon the solid rock, but burned
itself up and went out as quietly as o
tallow candle.

Brain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly
notion that one kind Of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part OF the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food may
be, its nutriment is destroyed by indi-
gestion or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses Of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine Of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purfes the

TEST OF BIG GUNS.
Harbor Defenses of New York to Be
Given Thorough Trial.
Spectacular Feature of Tests WIN De
the Cooperation of Navy and At
tempt OF Biu Guns 20 rorce
the Harbor.

Within the past few days the war
department has taken the first steps
toward carrying out what will be
most Interesting test OF war material,
to take place in New York harbor dur
ing the coming summer. The expert
ments will constitute thorough and
practical test of the adopted system
of fire control as IL is technically
called; in other words, the direction
of the fire of the guns OF modern
fertilization from the large 1a-inch
guns down TO the 5-inch rapid-fre
guns.
One Of the most interesting points
to be determined Is the relative mer-
its OF the vertical and horizontal range
finders. A portion of the test will
consist of firing at targets, and this
will naturally be done with service
projectiles and powder. The object
of this part of the work will be to
determine how closely the range and
position finders have located the tar
gets.
Another part OF the test, and with
out question the most interesting
from a spectacular point OF view and
thus to the public, will be that poi-
tion wherein the navy will be asked to
cooperate. This will consist in an
attempt on the part OF one or more
war vessels to enter the upper har-
Dor of New York unmolested by the
fire from the formidable forts ON each
side of the Narrows. In this case the
fire from both contestants will be
with blank cartridges, though the
powerful searchlights of the forts and
vessels will add realism to the night
attacks. This part of the coming test
will be quite similar to the maneuvers
conducted last fall in Narragansett
bay, in which the value of the search.
light was so well demonstrated that
congress at its last session appropri.
ated the sum of $4,000 to supply
them for New York harbor alone.
II is anticipated that quite dis.
tinguished party OF officials will be
present during the tests, including the
secretary Of war and possibly the sec
retary of the navy. The tests will be
conducted under the general direction
of the board Of ordnance and fortiflca.

notes strength, wide between the eyes

wide between the forearms, full neck

PROFITABLE PRACTICE.
Result In the Saving Of 20 Per
Cent. Of Grain.

For two years we have soaked IN
the corn fed TO hogs, whether shelled
OF on the ear, writes o. c. Wiggin,
Charlotte county. Va, in the South.
ern Planter. We were led to the prac.
tice by the reports Of experiments
made by the Kansas experiment sta.
ton.
l take IL that the chief advantage
in soaking corn lies in the better mas.
tication which the animals give the
kernels. / find that the teeth Of pigs
soon become sore when fed contin.
uously on hard corn. When fed on
the ear, the front teeth become 50
sore that they can hardly shell It.
The excrements Of animals fed on dry
corn contain . large proportion of un-
digested fragments. This is apparent
to the most casual observer.
All last year we had been feed
ing our horses and mules on soaked
corn with decided gain. Many horses
have a vicious habit OF boiling their
grain, while old animals have faulty
teeth, which prevent them from crush.
ing hard grain.
l believe we are saving twenty per
cent. OF grain by this simple prac.
tice.
We never allow the soaked corn to
become sour. 1t is well to have two
barrels to use on alternate days. II
the weather be very hot, the corn
should not remain in soak more than
- hours. In cool weather it may
remain ~ hours or longer. Nothing
can so certainly and quickly derange
the digestive organs Of any animal
and throw it of it's feed as sour corn
or meal.
