MIR. BISHOPS SPEECH

1 There are times when occasion de- mands that one should express his 1 thoughts and feelings in language suit l ed to the event, and there are those who have happy faculty for so ex- pressing themselves while others less fortunate are unable to do justice to l the occasion or themselves.
 l Being one of those unfortunates and with a heart full of thanks and appre- citation, not so much for the banquet | itself as for the kind and generous 1 feelings which prompted so many good l friends to make this occasion possible, I fear I cannot express in cold words how deeply all this touches, and how much it means to me. Having been born and brought up within the con- fines of our little state, proud of t!:at fact and taught from my youth that l
 should doubtless pass all my days within her borders for family and busi-
 ness reasons, it therefore required the
 deepest thought and consideration on
 my part before l decided to seek fame
 and fortune in another section of our
 country. The kind and courteous treat
 ment accorded me by the gentleman
 representing the syndicate interested
 in the southern railroad properties l
 have cast my fortunes with, leads me to
 believe that my reception below the
 Mason and Dixon line at this aarticu
 lar time in the history Of our country
 will be somewhat more cordial than it
 would have been, say forty years ago.
 Frankly I had looked forward to a
 long hot summer in the south with con-
 siderable apprehension, but in conver-
 satton the other day with a native of
 that sunny cline, he suggested as a
 balm to sOothe my fears, that l follow his example for making time pass quickly, that is about the first of June sign a ninety day note and he would guarantee that the summer would be gone before l realized it. Those of us

------------------- FIRST AND LAST ASCENSION.

A Balloon Accident That Made a
 Wreck of q Steady Neved Young
 Athlete.
 When Charles T. Condon played the
 role of aeronaut for a wager three
 years ago, his experience cost him his
 reason. To-day Condon is tramp
 one of the variety known as stew
 buns" He came into Denver Friday morning on a freight train: left the same afternoon or evening on a brake
 beam, to where, no one knows. Con- don was once highly respected and was one of the leading young men of Oak land, Cal, where he was in the com mission business. He was an athlete, q club member and general good fel- low.
 One Sunday, in spirit of banter, he volunteered to make balloon ascen- sion in the stead of a man disabled, who was to have afforded entertainment for crowds at public resort Some of his comrades took him up, offering to wa ger that he would not dare go up on trapeze, swinging beneath the great hot air bag.
 Condon placed his money, announced to the park manager that he was an aeronaut of experience and was willing to satisfy the cravings of the crowd by making the ascent. He quickly changed Sunday clothes for a suit of tights and was greeted with plaudits as he appeared ready to undertake a peril ols feat he had not dreamed of an hour before.
 When his friends saw that Condon was in earnest they begged him to de- sist, but this the spirit of bravado would not allow. Before the park man. ageer realized he was sending an en- tirely inexperienced man up in the bal loon, the guy ropes were cut loose and Condon with running bound sat on the trapeze and was hundred feet in the air.
 number of boys and men had held the balloon captive by the guy ropes in readiness for it's flight. All but one let go as the balloon was released. On one of the ropes either holding on or being caught in tangle, was lad utterly powerless to help himself and afraid to drop
 Up went the balloon. The people shouted from below, beckoned franti- cally to Condon to bring the big bag back to earth, fearful for the life of the dangling lad. All unconscious of the boys presence, Condon continued evo- utions on the trapeze believing the tu- mutt below to be applause for his dar- ng.
 The balloon had ascended over a thousand feet before Condon caught a glimpse of the lad, clinging for life to he frail rope and utterly without sup port other than his own strength Then realizing that the cutting loose of he parachute would mean death to the ad, he schemed to get him on the tra- oeze beside him, , The boy was swinging from a rope on he other side of the balloon as the wind waved it and Condon found it impos- ible to reach him. The only hope was 0 make the lad hold on until the hot ir bag became sufficiently cooled to de- | cend. Condon cried to the lad, begged ] inn to hold tight; cursed, pleaded, l

A FEARFUL BABY
Wanted to Write a Letter.

A man came upon his little girl in a grevious and fearful condition, because she had been restricted in her allow ance of Grape Nuts. The father says, II am little at home and I hardly un- derstood why the absence of one parti- cular food should excite her grief, but upon inquiry discovered that she had taken such a decided fancy to dit that she was refusing meat and almost every other kind of food
 Since she has been using Grape Nuts serious condition of constipation of the bowels has been changed to thor oughly normal condition and her flesh is as solid as a rock.
 I quieted her grief by agreeing to let her write letter, or I would write if she would tell me what to say, so here it is. My dear MT. Grape Nuts; Mamma will not give me all the Grape-Nuts want. She says l must eat some beef, and I don't like it; l just like Grape Nuts better than anything else, with cream on them. Mamma used to soak them in water, but now I just eat them dry with cream on them. If I had ten dollars to buy Grape Nuts with I would fill the big pantry shelf, then mamma would give me more. l am six years old. With love, and thanking you for making Grape Nuts. D. l.. F.'"
 Her father adds: Right here I may gratefully give credit to Grape-Nuts, (which has largely taken the place of rich indigestible food in my own easel, for curing distressing catarrh of the stomach" This father and little girl live in TrIIro Nova Scotia Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich

very much alive Two days afteerward the names of the four were sent to the offlcer in command as a preliminary to having them court MaitialIed and pun lshed for disorderly Conduct and other violations of the laws of the garrison. The officer, who was q strong advocate or the power of record, ruled that as Peter Douglass had never entered the garrison, he could not be court mar tailed, and that, in fact, Peter Dou- glass was dead beyond resurrection. He was, therefore, turned out and again told to move on, but as he did not realize that he was dead he did not do so.
 He hung around the garrison for some time, but finally wandered away and got back to New York Officially he has remained dead ever since, for the record has never been changed. The officers preferred to let him remain dead and get him out of the army in that way than to try and reform him by court-martial, for he seemed to be beyond reform. Washington Evening Star.

threatened, knowing it useless. At an
 elevation of nearly two thousand feet ] the youngsters strength gave way and he dropped. The fall was witnessed by the thousands in the park. The little body fell on the doorstep of
 a house less than a mile from the park. On the doorstep was an invalid mother and her married daughter, who had watched the flight of the balloon. The mother died shortly after from heart failure and the daughter was sent to a hospital, insane. There, her child was born, a few weeks later. On seeing the lad fall, Condon pulled the cord which cut the parachute loose. He came down safely, but was picked up uncon- scious as result of his fright.
 When he recovered, weeks after he was not right mntally. His businss went to ruin and he took to drink. He disappeared within a year and friends failed to find him. It was learned he tried to enlist for the Cuba war, but was refused. What he has done in the meantime or how he has lived is bst explained by his appearance as he rached Denver.
 p-shouldered, unkempt with a beard covering his face he shamhleed to the Union Hotel. The porter put him out, and he sought a resting place in a nearby saloon, where he promptly went to sleep in a chair.
 Where have I been?" hequeried with the unmistakable leer of mind men tally unbalanced. Why, I've been eV-. erywhere. I'm bum, just a common bum I went up in balloon once and it was my finish. I'd go up again if there were no kids hanging to it and could drop out.
 "TelI you about it? Mo- that's dead; so s the kid. Awful thing it was. My first time up and my last till l go up to die myself" Then Condon, the wreck of the former man, grew silent.
 DO your friends in Oakland know where you are?" was asked.
 Friends? I haven't any since I went up. I had 'em once, but they've forgot ten all about me and I want to forget about them. I don't want to see any one know"

Every one thought we'll of Curtis, so Curtis was appointed and we lost Curtis.
