Bound To Have Her.

Another attempt was made to break
into the house of Il. G. Hitchcock, of
Oberlin, Kans., on Monday morning,
presumably for the purpose of kid
mapping Maud Metcalf, a school girl
who is staying with the Hitchcock
family. a week ago man tore the
screen off the window and got far
enough into the girl room to call her
by name, when he was driven out by
Hitchcock. At that time Hitchcock
had no revolver. This morning at
about o'clock the man came again
and Hitchcocd and a woman who were
watching fired five shots at him, none
of which took effect.
A rejected lover of the Metcalf girl
is believed to be the man who has
made these attempts. He lives just
across the line in Nebraska, and has
repeatedly told her that he would have
her some day whether she willed or
not. NeighborS think he is slightly
insane.
An effort will me made toapprehend
him in the state and have him pun
ished or adjudged insane.

In Cardinal NEelsey's palace no less
than $50 beds were provided fer stran-
gers. with superb canopies and curtains
of silk or velvet. There were bed
steads of alabaster, quilts Of down and
pillowcases embroidered with silk and
gold. The chairs OF state were covered
with cloth of gold; the tables and cab
inets were Of the most costly woods.
Much of the splendid furniture was
enablazoned with "my lords arms" +"
Everywhere was impressed the car
dinal's hat. The same magnifcence ap-
peared in the decorations and oEna-
ments Of the chapel, but the forty-four

The mississippi 100000 Years Ago

The Mississippi 100000 Years Ago.
Did you ever figure on what was the
probable condition of the great Mis-.
sissippi river 10000. 100000 or even
100000 years ago? Scientists suggest
that the erosion Of its bed was ae.
comphshed by a mighty cataract
which began far down the river, prob
ably at the place where it then emp.
tied into the gulf, and by gradual re-
PROGRESSION dug out the valleylike
gorge through which it now flows.
That this theory is tenable may be in
ferred from the high, wall-like bluffs,
features so Characteristic OF the upper
part Of its course.
& wearing away Of a monster cata-
ract would of course necessarily leave
high walls or bluffs on either side.
These are the well known features Of
the father OF neandering streams. It
would seem, according to this theory,
that st. Anthony's falls constitute the
remnant Of what was once the most
stupendous cataract in the world. Ge-
ologists estimate that it has taken the
river 100000 years to carve out the
mighty ditch through which it now
flows.

Possibly it has not occurred to many

out of bones originated, as we do not
