Politics here are specially amusing to

He cannot understand why one party

WHY SMITH FELL DOWN
The Mayor Of st. Paul Returns from
. Hunting Trip-TeITs Story
of Mishap.

u mIS1dP'
Mayor Smith took eight grains of
quinine.
This startling bulletin was published
Saturday in st. Paul soon after the head
of the city government arrived home from
a hunting trip. That a municipal officer
could swallow quinine without suitable
eseFlaserss excited neomnient-d down the river.
But the mayor also reported a painful
accident to himself. While hunting on
d. c. Shepard's game preserve, near
Grand Harbor, N. D., Mr.. Smith was
startled by the word dinner heard from
the direction Of the clubhouse. He seized
his bullying game bag, his gun and am
munition box, and started quickly across
the field. He tripped upon a projecting
root. Having both hands engaged, ne
was unable to save himself from falling
heavily. II could see the horizon tremble
as L went down. said the mayor, Satur-
day. my left side is severely bruised,
and have not been feeling we'll snce''
Yet Mr.. Smith Is so robust, despite his
years. that his friends apprehend no Sc
rious consequences from the accident.

To the Editor of the Journal.
Dear Sir: 1t is with no little interest
and satisfaction that I read your timely
and sensible editorial in T h e o n a
of the 9th under the caption, "A Supreme
" Important Amendment"
Permit me to suggest that you could do
no greater service at this time to Jour-
nal readers than by publishing in con-
spicuous place in T h e J urnal the
proposed amendments.
i T have conversed with many people
about these amendments, and I have yet
to find the person who can recall the text
or even the purport of all of them, while
nearly all are scarcely aware that amend
rnents are to be voted on at the next cleo
ton. If these important measures are de-
feated it will be for want Of information.

Work.
The first religious meeting in the st.
James hotel building, under the new re-
gime, was held last night in the Union
City Mission hail. 1t was one of the most
largely attended gatherings ever held by
the organization. The talk became remi-
niscent, as several men now holding posi-
lions of trust in the city, who. We're res
cued from themselves in this mission or
in other missions of the city, took part.
George Callahan sang a song express
ing his experiences as a product Of Chris
tan rescue work some twelve years ago.
S. R. Horlocks, converted two years ago
in the Union City mission when absolute
ly broken down, related the difference In
his condition then and now.
Mrs. A. J. Bernard assisted Superin-
tendent G. M. Stocking in the meeting.
The singing was by Christian Endeavorers
from the Park Avenue Congregational
church. The meetings will be held every
night through the year.

The old Asbury hospital may be used
by the different Minneapolis hospitals,
with the exception Of the city hospital as

to representatives Of the other hospitals.
If it. IS, accepted, it is probable that the

SMOKING HILLS.
Q PuzzlInE Natural Phenomenon In
Western North Carolina.


Western North Carolina.
A natural phenomenon that causes
much wonder and has so far baffied
scientists exists in the western part Of
North Carolina. The scene of this Won
der is located about twelve miles from
Asheville, in Buncombe county.
From some of the hills in that sec
ton columns of dark smoke are seen to
rise at a certain time each year, and
all efforts to ascertain the cause have
been without avail. When seen at other
times than when the smoke issues from
them. there is nothing unusual in the
appearance Of these hills.
They inclose a valley about foun
miles long and half a mile wide, and
their tops are from quarter to half
a mile apart. The columns of smoke
rise to a height of about twenty feet
and are about a dozen feet apart. The
general appearance is that of smoke
produced by the burning Of coal.
1t is indeed a strange spectacle to see
this smoke rising on clear day when
there is not cloud in the sky.
1t was in September, 1886, that the
phenomenon began to be noticed, the
first hill to smoke being Watch Knob,
one of the largest. Others then exhib
tied the strange freak, and there are
now seven that smoke.
Many theories have been advanced
and found to be without foundation
The volcanic theory was suggested anC
soon found to be without any scientifi,
basis to warrant its acceptation. TIL,
fact that the hills began to smoke i'm
mediately after the big Charleston
earthquake started much discussion a
to some probable connection between
the two events, but this again coul,
not be proved by the scientists, an,
the mystery still remains as deep a
ever.
A strange fact in regard to the mat
ter is that persons on the hills and, il
fact, in the exact spots on which til
smoke is seen by those in the vale
can detect neither odor nor color an
report that there is nothing to indicat
that the smoke is in the air aroun
( them.
The neighbOrhoOd is visited constan
" by parties of tourists. and many ar
lists have taken pictures of the hills
