P. sCHoLTZ KILLED.

Early Tuesday morning the mangled
remains of man was discovered about
one hundred rods west of the North
western depot on the east bound line
of the double track, and had evidently
been run over and killed by some east
bound train during the night. His
head was served from the body, his
arms and legs cut off and his entire
body mangled mass of flesh and
bones which could not be Unidentified
except from his clothing.
Coroner Evans was called and upon
investigation it was found that he was
working with a gang of men working
here. A memorandum book was found
in his bunk in which he had record
of work done and from which it is be-
lieved his home was at Hamilton. Ohio
The evening previous to his being
found dead he was seen in q very in
toxlcated condition. After quite a
thorough investigation by the coroner
he deemed it not necessary to hold an
inquest. The remains were turned
over to undertaken j. u. Wise for
burial. Dow City Enterprise.

 Yacht Races Offered as Proof.
 Of the yacht race, one writer says that annually "the courses stand forward as prominently conclusive and at the same time of the most convincing value" AS proving this, he takes the fact that on a clear day the racing yachts may be seen from Sandy Hook all around the course, whether 1t Is fifteen miles out and back again, or only the ten mile triangular course. He says:
 Treating the course sailed over as the shorter distance of ten miles in a triangle then the ten mile mark would be 66.6 recurring feet below the horizon from the starting vessel at Sandy Hook. and it would be i'm possible for specta- tor to see the competing yachts round the distant marks boats.

Ever since Calico, the assertion that the world moves has been questioned; for hundreds of years there have been contradictions of the statement that the globe is a globe. It is not a globe be- cause it is flat, and most frequently 1t has been proved to be fiat by the biblical references to "the end of the earth II it is a globe, how could 1t have ends? Has been the triumphant question of the iconoclast.

 Some men seek to dominate men. the genius of John McGill lies in his wonder full ability to master animals.
 On the outskirts af Trenton, N. J., just where the city and country meet, lives this man. whose success in ts ming vicious creatures and afterward educating them to perform all kinds of feats is little short Of marvellous.
 McGin is not professional trainer and breaker, like Gleason or Bartholomew, but some people say that he ranks as their equal It is lesson in patience to witness his power over horses, dogs. goats, tonkeys and monkeys.
 McGiIs thaater is roomy barn in the rear of hls house, and his stage Is va cant field. Here his pupils are given their first lesson--that of obedience-and here too, they develop from awkward, often unruly beasts, into polished show ani- mals with tempers as serene as old fam fly coach horses.
 McGill was born to love and train anil mals and proudly tells about his first pet, a small dog, that he broke to draw small wagon about. This was when Me- Gill was little more than an infant.
 He says he has never yet failed to con- quer an animal, although he admits that some are much more tractable than oth- CTS and learn more quickly. His secret Is kindness coupled with a mysterious power that attracts animals to him. What this power Is he does not know, but he feels such a love for horse or a dog that a bond of sympathy exists be- tween them the moment they come in contact.
 The other day McGin consented to show what his pets could do and to explain his methods of training. He began with his

Armed with piece of rope, seven feet in length he enters his stall. Nine times out of ten the animal will charge him and then the piece of rope comes into play.
 It is used as a bridle, and as he enters the stall McGill places the middle of the rope between his teeth and lets the ends hang. As th horse comes at him he dodges, but does not retreat an Inch. For a while he merely stands on the de- fenslye, avoiding the nimals rushes un- til the horse we -lo of the fun. After little 7...' of this kind he IS ready for bVslnt. Next time the horse charges he does not dodge, but, taking the rope in his hand losses it over the | animals head, and by few delft turns, mad1 so rapidly that the eye cannot fol- low he forms a bridle-bit, side-rings, head-strap, reins and all. The part Of the rope that goes over the horses head pass, through the rings and the ends are T. lns. A slight pull gives such pur- ofase on the piece of rope forming the bit thar the rider can choke the horse | into insensibility.
 The first step in the horse's education accomplished, McGill begins teaching him tricks. A very simple one, that always excites a great deal of wonder, Is the card trick, in which the horse goes to rack and selects @ certain numbered card from a number of others.
 l The horse is told in distinct tones to get "No, l." and the command is accompa- nied by a sharp slap on the flank. This McGill says serves to impress upon the horse the significance of the spoken word "one."
 Two" is treated the same way, being accompanied by two slaps; three also, and so cn until the horse nas learned his | lesson and recognizes the number wanted as soon as the word IS spoken Then the reminders are discontinued.

Who ExpatTiatsd Himself

London. April 2s-Latest official report
has IL that William Waldorf Astor will be
created Baron Cliveden of Taplow next
month.
How popular n peer the former Ameri-
can will be was proved this week in the
house of commons.
Mr. Astor strongly opposed the grant
ing OF a concession whose fate for two
wears had trembled In the balance.
Shall the public comfort be made sub
servient TO the personal convenience of
this domineering millionaire, AstorY'
cried an advocate of granting the con-
cession.
THAT ended the discussion the doubt of
two years vanished, the concession was
granted.
MIR. Astor's ennoblement is certainly un-
popular and causes resentment even in
ministerial circles. But IL is said for
him, half apologetically,. that ne contrlp-
uted a quarter of million dollars 10 the
last Tory election fund and will give as
much before the next general election.

made in the country that thrashed george

The concession that was given chieny
because of Mr. Ast9rs hostility 10 ~ was
for "electrams" on the Thames emhank-
ment between we stminstcr and NiPck-
friars bridges. For years this copccs-
sion has been refused by the commons,
ON tho absurd ground that The trans.
running 90 and FRO, would dctract from
the beauty OF the ombankment.
But Mr. Astor's opposition was dictated
bv the fact that the Office OF his estate,
where he passes most OF his time Wnlie
in London. Is situated on the emhank-
mcnt.
Every one is talking OF the cleverness
