Behind these stores may be found proof of the philosophy ot fataiism; that "a man Will not oFe uii his time comes" .,,
 For when one man is killed through trying to kick a cat from his front porch, and another falls 300 feet down the shaft of a mine and sustains only a broken leg, the old philosophical 'cause-and-ei- feet" reasoning gets hard blow.
 Within week both of these extremes have been under the list of casualties in the newspapers It was Henry Bnsh or Quincy who kicked at the cat. The anil mai was strange, and as he passed out the front way he concluded to lift the frespasser. Kicking, he missed the ami anal, lost his balance, fell three feet to 1he ground and broke his neck Con efasting so strongly with this was the Experience of Andrew Michaliquo, inner al Hiberna N. J. The miner had just stepped from the cage when he lost his balance. fell back into the shaft, which. having no Instructions. allowed the body to rebound from side to side as 1t fell. Al broken leg and a scratched face was the sum of the mans hurts.

A flaw in the glass focused the suns rays on his int-splashed trous- CTS leg, and he was in flames before he ering over him and put out the flames before Hook was injured.
 Shoots at Hog; Receives Bullet in

When they desire to call down curse on any one they fear or dislike. they hang a long red rag at the door of their huts, a survival probably of the famous red mantle hung by the priests of Samothrlcia at the door of the temple when the god was angry with the city and its inhahi- tants.
