he fell and cut his tongue, which re-

and cut his face and two more stitch

SHE USED WHIP

River Captain Punished by the
Girl Whom lie lnsulted.

ST. Louis. Mo-, Aug. 1.-James Smith.
river captain, aged 45. with wife
and family living in Paducah, Ky,
was horsewhipped on the street here
yesterday by Miss Katherine Smith,
the pretty stenographer in the Water
ways Journal office.
The whipping occurred at the corner
of the levee and Washington avenue.
Smith is the second man to be trim
med by this strong armed young
woman within month. In each case
the aggravation was the same.
When Miss Smith got through with
him he lay helpless, not able for few
minutes to move a muscle. His face
was literally covered with welts and
slashes. He received the horsewhip.

Miss Smith is strikingly handsome

"DICK,"
They Haven't Fixed It
Yet. a w
Mistake Of Thanking the Board
In Advance.

"Dick" Inskeep, with the Cleveland
Construction Co.. is ordinarily very
bright man, but he made a mistake
by thanking the Board of City Com
missioners in advance for fixing the
grade of the street crossing at the cor
ner of Vine and Spicer SITS. The Board
has not yet made the repairs asked
for, nor has it even considered the
matter seriously This Is probably
ON account of the fact that Dick
thanked them in advance, and maybe,
also. because he got funny in his COM
munication. He notified the august
body that patrons of the street car
line must of necessity have consid-
erable ability as acrobats in order to
avoid the mud and water that accum-
ulate on the crossing every time it
rains" This certainly must have
tickled the Board, when the members
got to thinking of acrobatic citizens
jumping clear from the sidewalk into
the cars, and from the cars to the
sidewalk. That they were thanked
in advance for something also
tickled them. 1t is not often that the
Board gets thanked for anything
much less something 1t hasn't done.

Seven Years Crowded
Full OF Accidents

Officer Fred. Baker, of this city, has
little nephew in Allegheny, Pa, who
has had far more than the usual share
of accidents in the seven short years
of his life. Only a short time ago Mrs.
Baker returned from Allegheny, where
the little boy had had an eye blown
out by fire cracker on Decoration
day. Now the lad has broken an arm
and fears are entertained that the
limb may have to be amputated. The
Pittsburg Dispatch has the following
to say of the case:
Watch how nice ! can jump over
this" said little Charlie Mills to a
little girl companion, in front of his
home, 1914 Sedgwick ST., Allegheny,
yesterday morning. He started to
show her how, slipped, fell and broke
his left arm in such manner that
amputation may be necessary. This
Is but another chapter in long list
of accidents of which the little fellow
has been victim. Unlucky does not
express it.

MESSAGES
From the Vicinity Of
the Pole
will Be Sent By Wireless
TeIegraphy.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 1--Bernier, the
Canadian explorer, who is to go in
quest of the North pole, will establish
Marconi wireless telegraph commune
cation between his party and Dawson.
Details are given by Governor Ross,
of Yukon territory. who met Captain
Bernier and discussed the plan with
him. The governor said:
r Captain Bernier intends to sail for
the north by way of the Behring sea.
1t Is his opinion that he can catch a
current by taking this course that will
carry his ship to within $50 miles of
the pole. The short remaining stretch
between the ship and the pole is to be
covered by trip over the ice.
'They will take long metallic tubes,
sharpened at one end and hollow with
and opening at the other end. Into
these tubes will be placed foods of a
wide variety. The food pots will be
placed in the ice and will bear flags.
Within reasonable range Of vision
one of these poles will be placed. In
this manner the course pursued from
the ship will be followed easily and
the return trip will be made by going
from pole to pole. Not only this but
on the arrival at each pole the party
will find food waiting. The Marconi
system is to have an instrument in
full sympathy in Dawson and news
of the progress of the expedition will
be sent from the front back to Daw-
son, thus keeping the world informed
of the fortunes or misfortunes of the
party" +,

METZGAR LAW
Will Be Tested In Stark County
Courts.

Canton, O., Aug. IA test OF the

LONG SLEEP.
Case Of Kansas City Man Has
Puzzled Doctors.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. LA case
of long continued sleep has been over
come by the waking of D. G. Levitt, of
East Twelfth St, who is now up and
about after sleeping since April 26.
The theory of physicians is that sleep
ing on car seats, which Levitt fire.
quently did while travelling, resulted
in dislocation of the vertebrae so that
while the artery pumped blood into
the brain 1t was not carried back
freely, resulting in stagnant con-
dition causing sleep. BY kneading the
neck to give room for free passage of
the blood the patients sleep became
less and less sound and finally he
awoke completely.

COMBINE.
It Is Really to Be
Formed.
Packers Will Have to
Fight the State.
illinois Attorney General Already
After Them.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-The Inter Ocean,
generally accepted as a paper reflect
ing the official views OF the state ad-
ministration, says Illinois will fight the
proposed packers combine. Attorney
for two days gathering evidence and
will soon proceed against the concerns
proposing the merger. The state will
not await the actual consolidation but
will proceed to prevent the merger.
Nothing in the federal case now
pending against the packers is to be
construed as having the least thing to
do with the coming fight. All the fed
eral evidence has been examined by
the state authorities and nothing there
in has been found to warrant the state
in beginning a suit.
Well founded rumors of a combina-
ton, however, all of which have aris-
en- since the beginning of the federal
suit, are the cause Of activity on the
part of the state. Spurred by the
haste of the packers in absorbing the
minor packing plants, the attorney
general desires to institute his case
early in order to prevent an inevitably
more bitter fight following the consum-
nation of the packers deal. From
Boston, where much packing corpora
tion stock is, held, has come much of
despite repeated denials, great COM
bine is really to be formed.

On several occasions during the past
