A TRULY GREAT IDEA.
brilliant Suggestion for the Improves
ment of the Tagging Game
of Football.

The supporters of football are assem-
bled in convention, says the Baltimore
American.
Gentlemen" says the spokesman,
something must be done to add inter
est to the game. | regret to acknowledge
that in recent years, despite our efforts
to wound MAIN and kill, the sport has
uwindled in public favor. No doubt this
Is because OF the increase in the number
of wars, and the familiarity of the public
with injuries from that cause; also be-
cause of the growth of the automobile
fad. Hence, as | say, we must do some
thing to put more ginger in the game.
The point is, what shall we do?"
Here. a shaggy haired man arose in the
rear of the hall and begged for hear
ing.
Gentlemen" he said, Il represent the
Russo-American society of anarchy, and
am also an enthusiastic football player.
1t occurs to me that if the ball were
filled with dynamite instead of air it
would"
But the rest of his remarks were sim
ply drowned in a furious explosion of
mad applause.

ADMITS HE SLEW CUSTER.
The Confession of Appearing Elk, n
Sioux warrior, Clears Up Mystery
of Many Years.


Gen. Custer was slain by a Sioux
warrior by the name of Appearing
Elk, according to Rev. Philip Daloria,
of Flora, S. d., formerly a Sioux
chief, but now a minister. Rev. Mr..
Daloria gives the solution of the Lit
tie Big Horn mystery of 1876 in the
words of Clusters slayer himself. APP
pearing Elk died last spring after
having told his story to the minister:
81 have been the means of convert
ing an old warrior named Appearing
Elk who was in the fight at Little Big
Horn in which Gen. George \. Custer
fell" said Mr.. Daloria the other day.
appearing Elk gave the following
account of the massacre: we had
surrounded the last cluster of sol
diers. I discovered that l myself was
wounded. Suddenly a man in blue
doomed up in front oil me. l knew
that he was a chief, but l did not
know who he was. He was swaying
like drunken man from exhaustion
and loss of blood from many bullet
and arrow wounds. l felled him with
my tomahawk and then sat on his
body to be sure that l should not be
robbed of my rights.
"In order to make doubly sure I
took the revolver from the holster of
the dead man and stuck it in my belt.
When there were no more soldiers
left alive the noise ceased and the
dust lifted. I was still sitting on the
body. I didn't scalp the man. After
ward l learned he was the chief of
the white men,"

LIFE-SAVING GLOBE.
Novel Invention of Norwegian
Picked UP In the English Channel
by Tug.

"A demonstration of the efficiency of
a novel life-saving invention has
taken place in the English channel,
cables the London correspondent of
the New York Herald.
About four miles off Folkestone, a
tug sighted strange object in the
water. Upon coming nearer it was
found to be a large globe. From a
manhole on the top mans head pro-
jected. The tug went alongside and
two men emerged from the globe
They proved to be the inventor and
his assistant, both Norwegians. Ac-
cording to their story, the globe,
which is composed of aluminium, was
put overheard from a steamer off
Havre Tuesday and since that time it
had been knocking about the channel
with its two occupants.
The inventor claims that it salts
fed all requirements and explana-
tons, and demonstrated its service
ability for saving lives at sea.
The tug towed the curious craft to
Dover, where it attracted much at
tention.
1t is about eight feet in diameter.
An air shaft is provided with a water
pump, sail and rudder. It's capacity
is claimed to be sufficient for 16 per-
sons, together with $50 pounds of
food and LOO pounds OF water.

in favor Of annexation to the I'm

"In all these articles, however,
the fact that the Mormons are
gradually establishing a new Utah
in British territory is entirely lost
sight of. And yet that is what
they are doing, and that is what is
their avowed intention. Headed
by visionary, they have started
to settle in the district around
Lethbrigde, and have founded
town called Raymond, which is
destined to have a population of
at least 10000 souls.
"They have selected most
fertile neighborhood, and coun
try which will be immensely bene-
fitted by the great irrigation ditch
which is now being constructed
"The man who is at the head Of
the Mormon movement is Mr.. Jesse
Knight, Mormon capitalist from
Utah, who says that in vision he
saw the possibilities of the North
west country, and who founded
he town named Raymond, after
his son, which he says will be the
modern Salt Lake City of the
Canadian West.
"This vision which he announced
publicly, showed him his Ray
mond leading the ten lost tribes
into the colony.
"They carried sheaves of wheat,
and their way lay toward a stately
tabernacle, which is to be the prin-
cipal place of worship of the Nor
mon church in the North, and
where thousands are worshipping.
Visions like these do not sound
business like, and are apt TO be
doubted; but the old Mormon lead
ers had alleged visions, which they
say have come true, and Mr..
Knight himself has had visions be-
fore which he says have turned
out to be money-making dreams.
"To one Of these he is indebted
for the money which enables him
to bring his brethern of the poorer
and working class here from Utah
and TO give them comfort and in
dependence.
'It was a dream of gold mine
which was to be found at a certain
spot; and, strange as it may seem,
the mine was found and gave him
great wealth
-Four years ago the country
around Lethbridge was bare. To-
day there are already thousands
there. Not only Mormons have
come, but great many other peo.
pie, and they are increasing fast.
-Four thousand acres comprise
at present the Mormon property
around the town of Raymond, and
the returns from the preliminary
crop Of wheat and corn that has
been grown up till now to prepare
the land for its ultimate destiny
have been most gratifying. Its
ultimate destiny is the raising of
beet roots for obtaining sugar.
"In connection with this he is
erecting an immense beet-root fac
tory, which will be the equal of
anything of the kind now in Amer
lea.
In all, by the end of next year,
Mr. Knight expects to have at least
1000, 900 invested in the settle
ment near Letbbridge."
