Recently the husband was looking
over the new vegetables as they were

with his wife was discussing the
appearance of the different plants
as they appeared above the ground,
most of which were new to them.
They came to the row of beans
which were just shooting their heads

A WONDERFUL DOG.
He Was q Pointer That Never Made 4
Mistake, as Was Clearly
Proven.

They were talking about the almost
human intelligence exhibited by dogs
on some occasion. Several anecdotes
had been related Of the wonderful In
tellect OF CANNES when an army Of
ficer, who is connected with the cav
airy arm OF the service, stepped into
the ring and squared himself for
good one. He is something OF a
sportsman and knows good dog when
he sees one, so that his story was lis
tened to with more than usual interest
by his friends, relates the Washington
Star.
ut was down In Texas several years
ago that I came across the greatest
dog l ever saw or heard Of" he said
"Tte animal belonged to a friend OF
mine and was the greatest quail dog
you ever saw. We have taken that
dog out day after day and he would
never go wrong, and would point quail
in the most unlooked-for places. One
day we were walking into town from
the army post where I was stationed,
this friend of mine and I, and we had
the dog along. AS we were walking
along the road carelessly WELL
dressed stranger passed us. No soon
er had the man passed on than the dog
stuck his tail in the air and assumed
the attitude recognized as pointing
1t was some time before we were able
to determine what he was pointing,
but finally came to the determine ton
that he was pointing the stranger
which proved to be correct. We called
to the man and asked him II he had
any quail about him or II he had eaten
any quail, explaining why we asked.
He said he had nothing Of the kind and
did not remember having eaten any
for some months. Turning to my
friend I said:
"'Your old dog has gone wrong
"'Not a bit Of IT, he replied That
dog is right and I'll bet you ten he is
~ did not see then how the bet was
going to he settled, but took 1t up any
way. and we continued on to town
We went to the biggest hotel in the
place to get some refreshments and
there saw the stranger we had met on
the road. My friend asked the clerk
who the strangely was. and the clerk
pointed to the register. AS soon as my
friend saw the name he gave yell and
called me to come over there.
"'Give me your money, my boy
That dog knew what he was doing
when he pointed that man.
ITO satisfy myself glanced at the
register and saw the strangers name.
1t was Robert r. Partridgel' Truly
that was the most wonderful dog l
ever saw or heard Of"

MINING AT GREAT DEPTHS.
copper SHAFT In Like Superior Re-
gion Extends Nearly a Mile
Under Ground.

In no other district in the world
are active mining operations carried
on at such depth as in the Lake Su-
peror copper region, says the Chi
cago Chronicle. The No. shaft of
the Tamarack mine Is the deepest
in the world, having attained verti-
Gle depth of 4,040 feet, nearly n mile.
Not far behind 1t Is the Red Jacket
shaft of the Calumet & Hecla. which
is down 1920 feet. Another deep
shaft of the Calumet & Hecla is the
No of the Calumet branch of the
property. This is down 1880 feet
on an incline of mile and n half
In view of the marvellous efficiency
of the modern hosting engine nc
considera tons of mechanical ma
ture need limit the prospective depth
of shafts.
The greatest obstacle to deep min
ing is the proportionate increase in
temperature. In the Lake Superior
copper district State Geologist Lake
has ascertained that the temperature
in the mine varies one degree for
every 10 feet. The temperature in
| the deepest shafts at the Tamaracl,
and Calumet & Hecla varies between
IS and 90 degrees, and in view OF
these conditions It Is evident that
considerable depths can yet be ut
tanned in this section.

ARTIFICIAL AIR.
New and Ingenious Process for Pro
ducinE Oxygen from Solid
Substance.

The progress of invention in sub
marine navigation has stimulated eff
forts to produce oxygen by cheaper
and easier methods. If oxygen, the
vital element IN air, can be supplied as
wanted, the length OF time that men
can remain under water may be indef-
nitely prolonged. A process of making
oxygen, invented by George +. Jaubert,
a French scientist, promises to answer
the requirement, says Science. His
object was to find a solid substance
which would produce oxygen as cal
cium carbide produces acetylene gas,
He selected for the purpose peroxide
OF sodium, or OF potassium, which can
be cheaply manufactured by electro
chemical means. 1t is called "oxy-
1.-the" and IS made in little cubes and
pellets some only half an inch in diam
eter. When decomposcd with water It
gives off oxygen. Two or three ounces
of this substance supply enough oxy-
gen to enable diver to remain under
water for an hour. BY suitable appa-
ratus the carbonic oxide produced by
respiration is Withdrawn into the oxy-
gen generator, and fresh oxygen takes
its place

ACCUSED OF PERJURY
J. J, BIetz Arrested by Topeka
Sheriff in This City
ALSO WIFE ABAND0NM
Illinois Sheriff Is Waiting in
Topeka for Him
ALSO WIFE ABANDONME 7

! Mr.. J. ]. Bleitz who owns the undertake
| ing establishment at % North Main street
formerly owned by D. T Dunbar was
taken 10 Topeka yesterday by Sheriff
Lucas to answer the charge of perjury
and an Illinois sheriff is waiting in Tope-
ka to arrest AIr Bleitz on the charge of
wife abandonment
| Mr.. Eleitz was arrested here Thursday
| evening by Sheriff Lucas and Detective
Harry Sutton. The officers located their
man at The Iasonic Temple ana placed
| him under arrest. He vas released on
his own recognizance TO appear AT the
north bound Rock Island train at $50
yesterday morning. NJ Bleitz appeared
and accompanied the sheriff 10 Topeka.
The Topeka Capital tells the story Of
Mr. Bleitzs crime as follows:
Bleitz used 10 live in Illinois. About a
year ago he abandoned his wife and child
rem and moved 10 CoGeyviIe. He made
his headquarters at Coffeyville, but alter
mated between that place and Wichita.
II is claimed that he became enamoured
with girl in Wichita and came to To-
peka and fled a suit for divorce against
his wife in Illinois. filing the customary
affidavit that he had been a resident OF
Shawnee county for six months.
\ few days ago the Illinois authorities
located Bleitz in CoheyviIle and sue
ceeded in causing his arrest at Wichita.
The Illinois sheriff came TO Topeka TO Sc
cure requisition for Bleitz. but when he
arrived here he found that Sheriff Lucas
had started for Wichita after Bleitz on
the charge Of perjury.
As wife abandonment in Illinois IS not
a felony and is punishable only by jail
sentence, il is probable that the illinois
authorities viii not push their demand
for a reuuisition II Bleitz can be convicted
of perjury. Perjury in this state is pun
ishable by term in the penitentiary not
exceeding ten years. 1t is thought there
IS no question regarding Bleitz being con-
victed OF perjury as ne has not been a res
ident Of Shawnee county at any time.
Mr.. Bleitz HIS been here about q year
first buying an interest in Mr.. Dunbar
establishment and later the entire bus
mess was purchased by Messrs Bleitz and
Burbank and it vas run under that name
for some tine. 4 short time ago Mr.
Bleitz purchased the interest OF his part
ner and now owns the entire establish
ment. His arrest created considerable
surprise yesterday. His love affairs were
unknown here except that he was very
much in love with a Wichita boOkkeeper
and many did not know that he ever had
been married. He was n good business
man and his reputation was so good that
the officers had no hesitancy in letting
him spend the night after his arrest at
his own home without a guard.
