sALUTED CONFEDERATE FLAG.

Soldier Of Regular Army Performed
Simple But Noticeable Courtesy.
About fifty ex-Confederate soldiers
passed through the Union depot yes
terday on their way to St. Joseph
where the state reunion convenes to-
day. Twenty members of Camp
Thomas McCarty OF Liberty are
among those who will attend the con
vention.
An interesting incident occurred
while a group of the wearers of the
gray were at the depot They carried
an old Confederate battle flag, and a
member Of the Twelfth United States
infantry in khaki uniform who was
hurrying by stopped, saluted the en-
blem in the regulation way and pass
ed on. 1t developed that the infantry
man was the son of a Confederate sol.
der who was killed in battle.-Kansas

wild Brook Trout.

Hawthorne describes an ideal break
fast as consisting OF hot cakes, brock
trout, roast potatoes, fresh boiled eggs
and coffee. The piece de resistance Of
this breakfast is the brook trout. In
spite OF all the efforts OF fish cultur-
lists, the wild brook trout remains the
finest morsel the epicure can seek.
Cultivated trout taste too percepubly
Of liver to be a food greatly desired.
The wild trout that springs in his ma
tive mountain stream is far superior to
any cultivated fish. Cook it in the sim
plest manner, dipping it in oil, salt and
pepper and broiting it over hot Goals.
Serve It simply with butter and slices
OF lemon.-New York Tribune.

Arm In Arm with n TIgress.

1t is related Of Sir Edward Bradford
that he once walked arm in arm, so to
speak, with a tigress. He was out
shooting and, always a fearless sports
man, had come TO close quarters with
his quarry. He fired, and either the
ball failed to take effect or but slight
ly wounded the animal She spraug
at him and seized his left arm above
the elbow. The pain must have been
terrible, but Sir Edward kept cool,
and, realizing that it would be death
to drag his mangled arm away and al
low her to spring afresh at him. he de-
liberately walked a few agonizing
PAGES until his comrade was able to
take aim and kill the brute. Thus his
courage saved his life, though the am
putation OF his arm at the shoulder
proved necessary.

nenent. of Travelling.

Proper recreation prolongs life. This
fact is now better appreciated by busy
people than ever before. OF all the
forms of recreation the best perhaps
is travelling. The benefits to be de-
rived from II cannot be exaggerated.
A journey, whether brief or long, is
sure to relieve the mind of business or
domestic cares by directing It into
pleasanter channels. Thousands can
testify that travelling has improved
their health. heightened their lives,
frightened their mental faculties more
than anything else.--Boston Globe.

viyidly placing itself in the front rank

Today it gives a three-column detailed
account OF the fire which is raging in

paper classed as the best, with exclu-

The working crews Of the Hawaiian

were natives, good fellows, willing
workers. admirably adapted to the
duty required of them, which was

well remember one who excelled in
diving. On a certain occasion, when
the placing of a deep water mooring
had just been accomplished. 1t became
necessary to detach under water the
end OF a hawser, which had been made
fast to the submerged part of spar
buoy about forty or fifty feet below
the surface of the sea. The man was
told to take his sheath knife down
with him and cut the hawser as near
it's end as he could, so as to lose as
little as possible OF the valuable cable.
Taking his knife in his teeth, he dis
appeared beneath the water and re-
mained out of sight so long that he
was almost given up for lost, when
he suddenly reappeared, and on being
