Edward Eggleston, the eldest son
Of Joseph Cary Eggleston, was born
at Vevay, Ind, Dec. 10, 1887. He was
a sickly boy and frequently had to
leave school on account of ill health.
At the age of 10 he began to travel a
Methodist circuit in the southeastern
corner of Indiana, carrying his ward
robe in a pair of saddlebags. 1t was
during these days that he gained i'm
pressions for his strong story of The
Circuit Rider"
In the spring of 1866 his health
made it necessary to give up the min
istry, and he became associate editor
of the Little Corporal, published in
Chicago. In May, 1870, he became lit
erary editor of the Independent and
removed to Brooklyn to live. In the
following year he took editorial
charge of that paper. but resigned the
position seven months later to accept
the chief editorship of Hearth and
Home. Six weeks later he began to
write for it's columns the story of
1.-The Hoosier Schoolmaster," follow
ing this with many others, all of
which were popular

New Type Of Steamship.

Copenhagen: "a company has been
formed in this city for the construc-
ton of a trial steamship of a new type.
The inventor Is Capt. +. C. Ishoy,
who has taken out patents in the
principal countries. In this new form
of steamer the screw is placed under
the bottom instead of aft. The hull
is materially changed in form, being
flatter, and the ships draft thereby
considerably lessened. 1t is claimed
that a saving in the consumption of
coal of about 20 per cent will be
effected. The inventor believes that
with the. same amount of fuel the
speed will be greatly increased, and
finally that this form of craft will be
much steadier and more seaworthy"

REAL WILD MEN FOUND.

German Investigator Makes Discovery
in the East Indies.
A curious story comes from Breslau.
Two well-known German investiga-
tors of Celebes, in the East Indies,
have, it is reported, discovered real
wild men and women in the district
of Lamontjong.
They had an interview with the Ra-
jah, who, after some hesitation, or
deed two women and a child to be
shown to the travellers. They are said
to belong to the oldest race of Cele-
bes, where they live in the wooded
mountains.
They plant little maize, are mo-
Eogamous, cannot count beyond one,
and never lie'' They are exceedingly
shy.
The two ethnographical authorities
DIR. Paul and DIR. Sarasm-will
shortly return to see the Rajah and
obtain his permission to bring a pair
of these wild people to Europe.

On the Turnpike.
BY H. B. MARINER,


Copyright, 1902 by Daily Story Pub. Coz
Tinsley, the tollgate keeper, leaned
his long frame heavily upon the top
rail of the worm fence and watched
the efforts of young man in the bot
tom pasture across the road to cap
ture large sorrel colt which did not
court capture.
The young man, Tins1ey noted with
an inward chuckIe, had about reached
that stage of desperation wherein man
meditates the capture of horse with
some convenient brick.
Tinsley did not like the young man
who desired the horse On general
principles he disliked every young
man who owned horse, and it might
be further stated that his dislike ex-
tended to every young man in the
vicinity of the tollgate, whether he
possessed a horse or not, though from
the nature of his profession Tinsley
was more familiar with the former
class.
1t wasn't Nettie Tinsley's fault ex-
actly, this attitude of her parents al
though ever since his advent into Ken
tucky, Tinsley had watched with grow
ing concern and perplexity the devel-
cpment of his eldest daughter from a
red-headed, sun-tanned East Tennes-
see child into a young woman of un-
deniable beauty, who sat on the porch
OF the dollhouse in the evenings and
played softly upon an old guitar left
in the stable by some unknown pos
SCISSOR.
The number of saddle horses at his
hitching rack had grown steadily
through the summer, and Tinsley was
more than ever involved in the diff
Acult solution of the problem. He
wished even more fervently than he
had ever wished that his wife had
lived to see her eldest daughter grow
into a woman.
Ancivility to the visitors was, of
aourse, in a Tennesseean, absolutely
out of the question.
Argument with Nettie, Tinsley felt,
with a world of bitter experience to
hack his view, would be worse than
useless, and might, probably would.
precipitate what he feared most.
Altogether Tinsley was in what he
termed a fix"
The row of horses which ordinarily
fought and paved about the old hitch
ing rack had gradually grown less in
number as the year progressed, and
with the first frosts which sweetened
abe wild grapes and crowded the bit
terness from the soft pink-brown per-
simmons there was but one horse
which spent much of its time at the
Fack-a big sorrel colt, which Tinsley
had begun to look upon with hatred.
This change did not, however, i'm
press Tinsley with especial joy. He
did not look upon it as indicative of
growing unpopularity of his daughter.
He wished it was.
Tinsley greeted Will Dexter on the
road much as he. might anyone else.
He staid away from home as much as
possible and despised himself for it.
When Judge Dexter passed in his bug
gy driving the long-legged and much
coveted Criterion mare, which was his
especial favorite, Tinsley would reflect
bitterly upon social conditions, and

ing stoop-shouldered, shiftless toll
gate keeper, but a man whose child
was in danger.
His shoulders Strengthened, his face
hardened into lines of resolution, and
the. top of his throat closed with a
vicious jerk.
Snatching his long, black revolver
from the mantel shelf, he burst
through the kitchen, leaving the door
ajar and the children wailing in af-
fright.
Throwing a saddle upon the huge
roam horse in the box stall, he whirled
the excited animal into the pike and
disappeared over the hill with fur
ry of gray dust and a cracking of
hoofs.
Meanwhile the red-wheeled buggy
behind a big sorrel colt was whirling
along several miles ahead, bearing a
square-jawed young man in a SLOUGH
hat and a frightened girl, whose glor-
ious hair, broken loose from it's fas-
Jennings, streamed behind her like a
burst of flame.
''Oh. WILL she exclaimed, c1inging
to his arm. I'm so afraid. Suppose
your father sees us. What will he
say?'
He'll say a good DEAL" he replied,
grimly. HE always does. But don't
be worried, Nettie girl. Well get to
DIR. Williams before they ever dream
of looking for us and then
He bent over and kissed her cold,
white cheek.
Just at this moment, around a sharp
bend in the road, appeared a vision
calculated to make even stout heart
quail. and Will Dexter's face grew
white as that of the girl beside him
Swiftly approaching was the judge
himself. The broad Panama hat, and
the fringe of gray .whiskers behind the
bobbing ears of the famous Criterion
| mare were unmistakable.
Where are you going?" demanded
the judge, blocking the road squarely
by refining his buggy diagonally across
it. And who the devil may this be

the shrinking girl.
please be careful of your language,
sir" lie said, eying his father steadily.
This is the girl 1 am to marry. We
are on the way now"
The face of the judge turned from
crimson to an apoplectic purple.
1.-The devil you are," he sputtered
furiously. Turn that horse around
and go home,'
Il will not Get out of the road,"
The judge came near dying. Was
this his son who was speaking to him:
Did you hear me?' he demanded
with a look his SON had never before
seen Turn that horse around OF
With spasm of pain, yet with rigid
Spartan determination the judge drew
from his pocket cleaning revolver.

authority in his line of science but
also succeeded through his political
labors in establishing the system of

Girls of To-day Not Fragile.

There have been a number of cases
lately, where young women have dis
tinguished themselves by saving the
lives of men. Things have certainly
changed since the days when it was
considered highly unlady-like for a
woman to know how to take care even
of herself Fragility and fainting fits
were thought much more proper than
ability to plunge into the surf and
bring a drowning man ashore, which
shows how life has altered since the
time when knighthood was in flower.

patent when it Is remembered that
though believer in the rotundity Of
the earth, it was not Columbus, but
Magellan, who first physically demon
strated that fact by vigation.
And Magellan might have failed but
for the previous work Of Nespucius
The latter had explored the Atlantic
coast Of South America farther south
than any OF his predecessors and the
south Atlantic ocean eastward to tie
islands Of South Georgia, nearly to the
parallel Of Cape Horn.
BY this journey Vespucius demon
strated with a considerable degree OF
certainty that the strait, which had
for some years been looked for, lead
ing to the elusive unknown sea that
bounded the eastern coast of Asia, was
not to be found through the new lands
of the west north of "A degrees south
