ACCIDENT
TO FRAvIOLA.
Ball Falls With Ser
ious Though Not
Fatal Effect.

. Last evening at the carnival
ground an accident occurred
which nearly resulted in a
fatality. Fraviola, known in
private life as Miss Belle Nor
ton, the winsome miss who
makes the loop the loop, en-
cased in wooden ball, was the
victim. Fraviola ascends a
tramway 100 feet long and six
ty feet high, is locked in hol-
low sphere three and a half
feet in diameter, and when the
word is given the ball is start
ed on its perilous descent. From
the time it starts from the top
until it makes the round of the
% foot steel loop and is caught
in the basket at the other end,
Fraviola turns seyenty-six re-
yolutions in the short space Of
six seconds. Last night how
ever, owing to the breaking of
a guy line on the loop the mo-
ment the ball struck it, Fra
viola was thrown from the top
Of the loop to the track below.
She was lifted from the ball in
an unconscious condition, car
ried to a nearby tent and a
physician summoned. Later
she was able to be removed to
the carnival train.
The "loop the loop" is real.
~ the most dangerous exhibit
ton featured by any company
today. AS a matter Of fact
there have been only two loops
in successful operation this sea-
san, the bicycle loop with the
Forepaugh d Sells show and
the ball loop with the Collins
Carnival Co. Miss Norton has
certainly had her share of grief
in the peculiar profession she
has chosen. When Fraviolleta,
her predecessor, was killed in
Falls City, Neb.. last July Miss
Norton volunteered TO make
the loop and was given a trial
trip at four O'Clock in the morn
ing. Her second descent was
not so successful as the ball
jumped from the top of the
loop, made kindling wood of
lower section of the tramway
and sent the girl to the hospital
for two weeks.
The next attempt she made
was at Hamburg, Iowa, and
this time the ball jumped from
the top Of the loop, opened up
and spilled Fraviola, head
downard on the iron track.
This time she was picked up for
dead, but fortunately the fall
resulted only in bad bruises and
a severe shock to the nervous
system. She rejoined the COM
pany at Omaha, August first,
and has made the loops success
fully until last night. Although
badly shaken up, Fraviola will
attempt the feat again this
evening.

UNCLE SAM THEIR BANKER.
Soldiers Have on Deposit with the
Government $4,000, 900 of
Their Savings

The American soldier is coming to
be thrifty person, who saves his
money and uses the government of
the United States as depository.
long time ago, when rates for
money ranged from five to six per
cent, law was passed by congress
authorizing the war department to
take deposits from soldiers and pay
interest on them at the rate of four
per cent.
OF course. at the time that was
low rate of interest, but in these
days of two and three per cent. from
the savings banks it is a very high
rate. For few years after the law
was passed the savings fund amount
ed to almost nothing. Then the sol
diers realized that this was an excep-
tionally good way of saving, and
many of them started accounts with
the government, says Washington
report.
few years ago q soldier received
on honorable discharge and drew s1o,-
600 from his savings and interest,
and another soldier, who had re-
ceived and deposited cash inheri-
lance during his term of enlistment,
drew 100000. But these were excep-
tional cases. However, during the
last fiscal year the soldiers of the
government deposited with the war
department upward of $4,000, 900, and
that money is now drawing four per
cent. interest.
At the time that this law was
passed there were many assertions
from the army, and it was provided
that if a soldier deserted he should
lose all the savings he had on ac-
count. Hence when an enlisted man
gets an amount of money on de-
posit with the government he be-
comes better soldier and never de-
serts
His independence and interest in
his work increase in proportion with
his savings account, and the govern
ment is thus well repaid for the
"ather high rate of interest that it
Allows upon soldier deposits.

The duel. though prohibited by law,
stall exists in Switzerland. but the
practice il confined to the students in
the Swiss German universities. Even
these fre-eaterS are beginning to real
ize the absurdity of the practice, for
a meeting was held at Zurich lately
at which student delegates from all
parts were present. TO discuss the duel
and courts of honor. A proposition by
the president to abolish the duel alto
gether was rejected by large major
lty The consequence was that large
number of duels which were previous
ly arranged and whose principles were
awaiting the result OF the vote took
place at Bremgnrten. near Berne.
Many students received severe rapier
cuts, chiefly in the face. but nobody
was seriously wounded. The police,
though they know the practice exists.
and are often aware OF the affair"
seldom interfere. for they look upon
the duel, as practiced by the students,
a. sporting and harmless matter.
It's certain that nobody has ever been
seriously hurt in these Affairs Of hon
