PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES.

1uEnCn0HIhAI r
Mubammad, 10 ths little World of
his day. did his best to be compre-
hensive. In the Duran (chap. xiii
he says: Believe in all the Scrip
lures which God hath ent down"
This for him and for his time and To-
cality was comprehensive, although
the only Scriptures he knew were the
Jewish and the Christian.
So with us there was a time when a
certain degree OF comprehensiveness
was a~ttainable within the boundaries
OF u own church and its special be-
liefs, held with eyes shut to, and con
temptuously ignoring, in our tancied
strength and superiority, every thing
foreign TO our W little ".ism." But
that time is no more; and to be really
comprehensive we must look far be
yond the existing articles of any one
Church. knowing indeed no geogra-
phical or clinical bounds to our re-
ception of wisdom, knowledge and
light.

iete Shroeder's Remarkable Oil Well.
My friend Pete Shredder brings in
an interesting bit of news from the
north country. While drilling a well
for water for his iiocks last week he
tapped what is probably the most
wonderful reservoir of oil that ever
vas or will be. The singular feature
of this discovery lies in the fact-and
OF course il is a fact or Pete would
MT tell it-that the oil shot up into
the air, and is still shooting, under SO
tremendous II pressure that none of
it had fallen up to the hour he left

hours, eighteen minutes and twelve
one-half seconds after the well began
to spout.

aroused to anger, and he promptly
added d full charge of large shot to the
weight of one of the brothers, caus-
ing death almost instantly.
When the interest in the death of
Siegel had died down, says the Chicago
Tribune, Haas led his bride to the
altar and continued business at the

pered and everything went along
smoothly until one night as he was
going home from the store he was
shot dead from ambush, the bullet
fired by the unseen foe entering the
heart. The finger of suspicion. as it
is sometimes called, was pointed at
the surviving Siegel, but when he
asked the men of COrtez to proclaim
publicly that they thought he was the
man, not one of them opened his
mouth. This particular Siegel was
the best shot in several counties.

prostrated to think of anything but
her sorrows, but she frightened up
after Johns arrival. He was not bad
looking, and, being a good business
man, soon Strengthened out all the
commercial kinks. He had business
to attend to in Ohio, but he length
ened his stay at Cortez until it was
too late to return. He had fallen in
love with his brothers relict, and the
end of il all was that he married her.
He, like his brother William, lived hap
PLY with Jane, who was still the most
beautiful woman in Cortez, until his
sudden death. Whether the Siegel
brother still had vengeance in his
heart or not is not known, but it is
said he was in town when William
died.
There was still another Haas broth
CT, named Henry, at Mount Gilead. and
it became his DUTY to go west and look
after the interests of the widow. He
was more or less reluctant, but he did
not shirk his duty. He went to Cor
tez, put the business in proper shape,
and then began to linger. He might
have gone back to Ohio again. but he
didn't. The widow was not so young
as when she first married, but her
eyes were still bright and Henry. be-
ing unmarried, liked her. To all ap-
pearances she was not averse to his
company, and at last he ventured 10
suggest that it would not be a bad
idea if they became man and wife. AS
saving clause he remarked that it
were better, perhaps, if they were wed
at Mount Gilead and made their per-
manent residence there. He thought
the climate at Csrtez unhealthy. She
agreed with him, and in a few days
they will go to Mount Gilead, get mar
ried, and reside at the old Haas hone

the kitchen table.
Then she sat down on a kitchen
chair before the rejection.
Then she did not do one single, soli-
tary thing to those sliced onions and
shat bread and butter.
"Um, mercy on US, but amt they
nice, thought" she murmured, almost
every time she stabbed into the onion
dish with her fork. And haven't I
lust been longing for 'em, too! I'd just
rather sit here in the kitchen and eat
sliced onions with vinegar and bread
and butter than sit down to any old
formal luncheon anywhere!"
Thus she gormandized, pondering on
low good the onions tasted, and maxi
ing up her mind that she intended to
nave them for her luncheon every fu-
ture day on which she knew she was
not to 90 out in the evening. Thus re-
Hecting, she peeled and sliced the third
large onion and ate it delightedly.
She had just conveyed the last scrap

as she rushed upstairs to answer the

probably prove to be peddler or can

Then Elvira tottered to the sitting

For many nights as he lay awake
he planned relief. He thought of
strangling the ducks or chloroforming
them. But neither expedient seemed
good. One night bright idea came
to him. After he had put it into exc
cution the ducks were silent.
The next night he had two coOps of
unusually vociferous ducks. AS soon
as it came time for sleep he wrenched
slat from one of the coops. reached
in and pulled out a duck. From his
pocket he took a small rubber band,
which he slipped over the ducks bill
just back of the nostrils. The duck
tried to quack, but the rubber band,
while it stretched a little, would not
permit the duck to open its bill far
enough to use its tongue. Only a mur-
mur came from it. One by one the
ducks were muzzled, and the baggage
man rested comfortably.
The commission men were surprised
next morning when they received a lot
of ducks with rubber bands around
their bills. and when the bands were
removed the shouts of protest from
the ducks were deafening.

THE HAAS BROTHERS
Three Of Them Have Fallen in Love
with Jane Segur.
TVyO of the ROmances Were Stained
with BIOOd-The Third May End
Happily for Both Bride
and Groom.

Jane Segur, or Haas, the latter be-
ng the name she has borne for many
years, has had two rOmances, both
stained with blood, and her third may
be bloodless-if the prospective bride
and groom get away in time. Jane
Segur is to marry the third of the
Haas brothers. She had previously
married the other two, but death in
tervened and she became twice a wild
DIV. The third Haas seems to have no
fear, but all the good shots in Monte
yuma county are not dead yet and
there is no telling what may happen.
Twice married and widowed, Mrs.
Haas is soon to become bride for the
.hird time, and is willing to run all
risks.
Thirty years ago William Haas was
a prosperous young merchant at
Mount Gilead, o., but the balm in that
Gilead was not sufficient to satisfy
the yearnings of his soul for greater
wealth, so he removed his goods and
other belongings TO Cortez, Neb., and
set up trading house.
The belle of Cortez when Haas first
made his appearance was Jane Segur,
and she was as pretty as maiden
dared be.
Two brothers by the name of Siegel
were particularly attentive to Jane,
and they gave it cut that the man who
married Jane had better make his will
before the marriage ceremony was
performed. Now it happened that
little Jane had fallen in love with Will
liam Haas, and accepted his offer of
heart and hand. When the Siegels
heard of it they became more than
ordinarily strenuous. They talked to
Haas in an unseemly manner until his
Ohio blood becoming hot he was
