Though absurd wagers, often incon-
veniencing other people, are now
sometimes made, they are not so prey
alent as in the eighteenth and early
part Of the nineteenth centuries. The
absurdity of a wager made by some
persons in 1749 is only eQualed by the
credulity of the multitude. On Jan.
16 of that year, according to wide
spread announcements, person would
play ON walking cane at the Hay
market theater the music of every in
strument, get into a quart bottle and
while there sing several songs, at the
same time permitting any spectator
to handle the bottle. The theater could
hold but a small proportion of the i'm
mense crowd. but the performer did
not appear. Some person behind the
curtain announced that if the audience
would remain there until the next
morning instead of going into a quart
bottle he would get into a pint one.
But, though the multitude had faith
in the quart, the pint bottle was too
much. A riot ensued, and the interior

Save Your Eyes.

If your eyesight is good, take care of
it. Look away off yonder every time
you get to the bottom of page in
reading. If it is defective, let no fool
ish pride prevent you from wearing
the proper glasses.
There is no aense in handicappiny
yourself in life when a piece Of glass
before each eye will make your vision
as good as it possibly can be. The ocu-
list will not advise you to wear glasses
if you do not need them any more than
he will prescribe a drug you do not
need.
Plenty Of people, though, do not
know that they have defective sight
because they have never really seen at
all. They have headaches, infamed
eyes, sites, even much graver troubles,
from the strain of trying to see with
eyes that were put up wrong. There

SHROvE TUESDAY JOKES.
Peculiar Ideas of Humor Possessed
by Two French Kings

Peculiar Ideas of Humor Possessed
by Two French Kings.
In all countries where Lent is kept
except IA Russia, where Ash Wednes-
day is not observed-Shrove Tuesday,
the last day before the beginning of the
penitential season, has been given over
to mummings, sports and practical
jokes. In both England and Scotland,
in which latter place the day is known
as Fastens cen. it was in times past a
great holiday for the apprentices and
working classes generally.
A greWsome joke was played by
Louis NI. one Shrove Tuesday when at
night he ordered his guards to rouse
the sleeping villagers near and bring
them to the castle. From almost ev-
cry tree in the surrounding wood, it is
said, a dead body dangled, and to the
music of his fddlers Louis compelled
the villagers to take a gibbeted corpse
for partner and dance before it till
morning. Those who had husbands.
sweethearts or relatives among the
dead were forced to have them for
partners.
Later Charles TX. enjoyed a practical
joke at Shrovetide that was less grim
in it's character, secretly giving ten OF
the most skillful pickpockets in Paris
full leave to steal whatever they could
without being found out at the carni-
val ball. Louis himself enjoyed their
dexterity and the dismay of those
who missed their jewels, swords, Cir
dies and other valuables.

Cause of the Disaster Explained.
In tie Nelson mine the men are re-
quired to use safety lamps It is the
rule of the company for the miners
to place their fuses ready to be lighted
for blasts just before quitting work
each day, and there are workmen
known rs "fremen' who go through
the mine after all the miners are out
and set off these blasts. The miners:

takes them about fOrty-five minutes to
get out. Of the mine. The two fire
men," who are supposed to have caused
the explosion, are Lark Hunter and
John Harvey. They shot the blasts
about 40 p. M. before all the miners
could get out of the mine. 1t is sup
posed that one of the fuses was de
fective and resulted i'll what is known
as a blown blast"
Tremendous Force of the Blast.
The flame shooting out from the
blast ignited the gas. which in turn
ignited the accumulation of dry coal
dust in the mine. The explosion that
followed was horrible in its intensity.
1t shot out of the mouth of the mine
and completely wrecked the shed at
the mine entrance. Three men were
killed while standing outside the mine,
and two seriously and one fatally in
jured. This mine has been the scene

by miner carrying an open lamp,
