 Have I said anything funny?" he sarcastically asked
 "Yes, rather. If you should happen to fall down some time''-

 But he never will. That's you all over I can never make statement that you are not ready to dispute. Very well, we'll put this thing to test. I've got to go around to the drugstore. There are hundred boys on the street, but if a single snowball is thrown at me I'll buy you a dozen handkerchiefs. If l slip down, I'll make it two dozen.''
 Five minutes later MT. Bowser, with his silk hat on and his cane under his arm, was pacing along the street with the air of Roman senator. He had taken about seven stage strides from the gate when the United States jump ed at him. and his heels flew into the air. He wasn't over ten seconds find- ing the sidewalk with all his body, but the time seemed to him to be an houf and half. His hat flew one way and his cane the other, and two servant girls who were passing leaned up against the fence and snorted and gig gled and said it was better than vaude- vile.
 MT. Bowser got up. They generally do. He looked all around. Most men do that. Then he gathered up his cane and hat and told those giggling girls to giggle and be hanged to them and passed on. 1t took him two minutes to get into his dignified stride again and make up his mind that it was Mrs. Bowser's fault, and he arrived at the drugstore without further adventure. The snow on his back and the dent in his hat gave him away at once, and the druggist laughingly observed:
 Hello, Bowser! Been sitting down on the sidewalk to rest?"
 Sir, are you addressing mey' was the stern reply.
 "Why, yes, I was speaking to you Had a fall, haven't your"
 "Sir I never fall. If you are through asking tonlfool questions, you can now hand me out a box of chloride of lime
 The druggist had no more to say, and, with his purchase i'll his overcoat pocket, Mir. Bowser headed for home, The boys had spotted him and been making ready. They had observed that silk hat and cane and Roman stride, but they had not been awed a little bit. They gave him time to gel into gait, and then the signal was given, and a hundred snowballs flew al once. Of the hundred only ninety eight struck Mr.. Bowser, but there were others to follow
 It was such q surprise that he was stunned for a moment. Then, like the Chicago man, he forgot his dignity and rushed about bareheaded with uplifted cane. His downfall came a minute

WALKING HILLS
MENACE RAILROAD
Southern Pacific in Track of Strange
Creation of ceaseless Desert Wind.

LOS ANGELES, Cal.,July 10.-In the
eastern portion of the Colorado desert,
in Southern California, is chain of
hills nearly a hundred miles long
which are known as the Walking
Hills" These hills, which are 200 to
300 feet high, are constantly advanc-
ing across the plain.
The desert is about 100 miles wide
at this point, and it is, for the most
part, level plain devoid of vegeta-
tion Across this plain continually
blows strong wind, always in the
one direction-from the west. Some
time in the distant past, at some point
far to the westward the sands which
advance before the stiff breeze of the
desert began piling up, and this great
chain of hills had its beginning. Then
they began their journey across the
desert plain.
The hills are always advancing. The
wind, which is constantly adding to
their height by bringing new material,
also cuts away the sand from the
western slope and shoots it over the
hill, where it falls upon the eastern
slope. Thus, as fast as one side is
eaten away the other side is built to
and the hill is moved slowly eastward.
A little more than twenty-five years
ago the Southern Pacific Railway COM
pany built its road along the eastern
rim of the desert east of these hills
At that time they were a long way
from the tracks of the road. Now they
have advanced to the tracks and
threaten to bury them, and the COM
pany will be obliged to change the
roadbed, either moving further to the
east or else swinging around the
chain and bringing the road along the
western side. In either case a large
section of the road will have to be
entirely rebuilt.

OVERCOME THE POPE'S
WILL FOR ONCE


Once today the doctors succeeded in
overcoming Pope Leo's iron will. He
had decided to receive three cardinals.
This decision followed his conclusion
yesterday daily to receive one of each
rank of cardinals. They showed con-
siderable irritation at not seeing the
pontiff and at being compelled to get
news of his condition through outside
channels. Therefore, following Cardi-
nal Rampolla's visit yesterday, the
pope decided to receive today one of
each of these classes, cardinals. After
this mornings operation he requested
the doctors to leave the room, saying
he wished to see the cardinals. The
doctors gently but firmly protested, de-
claring that he was still too weak.
But shall not be fatigued, as I feel
much better this morning" argued the
pope.
But the doctors insisted, urging that
1t was for his own good. and ne finally
yielded, although expressing the hope
that he might see some of the cardi-
mails later.

Pope Leo's condition with deep inter-

the premier yesterday and. made a

to him M. Zanardelli has expressed his

Pope Leo hasgmanifested great In

Victor Emmanuel to Paris next week.
Today he made inquiries regarding the
plans for the trip; but the person in

of the government, says tonight: Saiii -,

The report has reached here from
Berlin that Emperor William has ex-
pressed an intention of attending the
pope's funeral. AS the French papers
have commented on this news. saying
that the emperor's action would offend
the Italians, it may be as well to say
that nobody here believes the report.
1t may be added further, that Italy
does not look on the papaey from this
point of view. as the fgoKernment, as
well as the italian peoples evince their
desire to demonstrate to- the world that
under the present conditions, that is
since 1870, when the TEMPORAL power
fell, the pope and the Vatican have en-
joyed complete liberty in the exrcise of
their spiritual offices. For this reason
no opposition has been raised by the
Italian government when foreign rulers
have visited Rome. recent examples
being the calls made on Leo by King
Edward and Emperor William.

operation was comparatively painless

The attorneys for Rhea argued that
this imposition nullified the sentence
for hanging in that it inflicted two
punishments for the same crime.
The supreme court denied the appli-
cation for an injunction, but expressed
a willingness to go into consultation
regarding the granting Of a reprieve by
the governor until a further hearing of
the application could be made. The
governor and Chief Justice Sullivan, Of
the supreme court, consulted regarding
such action. Gov. Mickey refused to
grant further reprieve and ordered
the sheriff to proceed with the execu-
ton.
The attorneys for Rhea went before
Judge Holmes, of the district court, in
an endeavor to get the lower court to
prepare an injunction stopping the ex-
ecution. Before the injunction pro-
ceedings could be prepared Gov. Mick
ey's order was carried out and Rhea
was hanged at 1:21. Rhea killed Her

FEELING IN ROME IS

A general feeling of tranquility
marked the day in Rome yesterday.
The self confidence Of the patient per-
meates the people. especially the SIM
pier folk, who go about their days
work. postponing signs of sorrow and
mourning until from the sfckbed itself
they hear that the unusual struggle is
nearing it's end. There is foretold. al
most alphabetically repetition during
the next few days of that exceptional
medical history of recoveries and re-
Iapses which have. so astonished the
world this week. That no doctor will
lend the weight of his opinion to up
hold this popular impression in no way
affects the prevailing idea of the Rom
ans. Nothing is more wonderful than
the pope himself, they say, hence, mir
acles are not out of the question.

ranchers in this section are threaten

government, which has control of the

They know that they are safe in the
