HERO OF THE sHIpYARD.
One Man Was There Who Knew what
to DO 1nd He Fearlessly
Did 1t.

The heroes are not all dead yet, al
though we may not hear so much of
them in this strenuous age. The Pmla
delphia Telegraph prints the story of
a man who risked his life deliberately
to save fellow workman5whom he did
not know even by sight The hero's
name is James Stein. He is foreman
Sof The Triggers in a big shipyard in
Philadelphia. When he was praised for
his courage, he exclaimed: "Pshaw:
Whist thsNse Of making SO much talk
about it? I did it to save the company
a lawsuit" The story ii as follows:
A boiler weighing GA tons, was about
to be lowered into the hold of steam-
ship in the big shipyard. The crane in
use, whichscan lift weight of 100 tons
as easily as a college girl lifts a wood
en- .duhbbeiI was swinging its great
arms towards the monster boiler, Is
feet in circumference. Perched on the
top nf the boiler was workman. a
poor Norwegian who speaks little Eng
lish and understands less. His back
WAS toward. the crane. He did not see
it, nor did anyone else until it was
within two feet of him. # the arm
Of the liant crane struck him it would
crush him as hammerswould an egg
shell, or brush him on Twenty feet
below was the ground. strewn with
jagged pieces of iron, to fall ON which
meant serious injury, if not death.
The workmen below saw the danger
and shouted. The Norwegian turned
halfway round and saw the crane COM
ing. 1T. was deaths either way. and.
paralyzed with fear, he collapsed.
At this critical moment, when ey-
aryunes elsea had lost his head one man
was there who knew what to do. and
did it.. Although he was 20 feet away
when the impending doom over the
man was first seen, he cleared the
space in less than two seconds and
stood amid the jagged iron.
Jump for your life! It's your only
chance!" he cried, and braced himseif
TO catch the falling man, while the
crowd held its breath. The two men
came together with an impact SO great
that both were picked up unconscious.
but both recovered.
1t was an example OF cool grit, clear
Judgment and prompt action.

Precept and Exaunle.

Johnny had come in with story of a
remarkable automobile he had just
seen. He declared that it was "as
big as a house.
mo, Johnny said his father, se-
verely, you know it was not as big as
a house. Why do you exaggerate
things so? I've talked to you million
times about that habit Of yours, and
it doesn't seem to do bit of good. -

out in Germantown, and has a back

Somebody with a political pull told
him that Uncle Sam would furnish
seeds for the asking, providing the re-
quest-came tarough a Congressman.
Now, McFadden's servant in the
house is George McCreary, who, being
new in the business and an altruist
when it comes to serving his fellow
man, responded with alacrity, and in
marvelously short time the elevator
operator received a big package from
the agricultural department..
On opening the package McFadden's
delight turned to disgust, reports the
Philadelphia Telegraph, for instead of
flower seeds lie found seeds warranted
to grow into any known vegetable.
Included and neatly labeled were GU
cumber, sweet and "horse" corn. wa
termelon, caulifower, spinach, egg
plant, carrot and q myriad of other
kinds of seeds.
But McFadden is not without saw
ing sense of humor, and it came to his
rescue in the form of q decision to mix
the specime ms, plant them in a bunch in
his backyard, and start guessing con-
test among his friends at a nickel q
guess, the winner to take all.

So it seemed almost natural one
evening that some one in passing
should be humning to himself the
opening bars of 1.-THE Flower Song -
Perhaps day never passes that some
light young heart coming up from
the Italian quarter does not whistle
or sing it to himself and pass un-
noticed, but this night the idle hum
ming touched chord in the heart
of a listener that sent the dream
echoes vibrating down the corridors
of memory and ringing, singing in
definitely on. Again this sober, heavy
set man was hot-headed youth of
IS, and again he saw, in fancy, as he
had not seen for 20 years, the proud
and scornful beauty, Veronica Del
mar. The careless tones Of the passer
had died into far, faint diminuendo,
but as Little listened, he felt again
the beating heart and bounding hope
with which he had hailed the omnibus
that day to take him to the Olympus
Of his divinity.
His reverie was disturbed by the
approach of q pair of strolling must
cians-a man and woman, leading
tired, overworked little monkey by
chain. The figures Of the singers
were indistinct under the flare Of
the street lights, but the outline of
a big fellow in SLOUGH hat and cloak,
loosely draped over his shoulders,
was easily d1scerncd above the heads

Mr.. Baca secured the services of

He was found in a saloon in East
Las Vegas. He was informed that

fused, and was asked to make it good.
He insisted that the draft was good.
but did not know who the man was

name was Edwards. He could not
give a good account of why he should
come here to cash his draft. He
turned over s31 of the s35 and allowed
Mr.. Baca to keep the draft and gro
ceries until morning, when he said
he could make good.
He claimed to have been in Las We

of ony one who could identify him.
Cartwright did not arrest him and
he was allowed to go, and 1t is very
probable that ere morning he will

HIS HORSE FELL ON HIM.
The Manager of Boiies Farm Meets
with a Serious Accident While
Ridinq After Cattle.

Harry c. Harris, lately come from
Colorado Springs to accept the posi-
ton of manager of the Bolles farm
at Otis, had the misfortune to have
his horse fall on him, injuring him
seriously, If not fatally.
1t seems that he was riding after
cattle, and his horse stepped in a
prairie dog hole and fell with the
unfortunate rider, rolling completely
over him. The nan was unconscious
when carried to the house, and DR..
Doepp was summoned, who found
that besides receiving a broken
thigh he had also struck his head,
producing conclusions of the brain.
He had not regained consciousness
up to Wednesday night, and his
mother was telegraphed for, arriving
from Colorado Springs Thursday
night.
The doctor considers his injuries
very serious. with probable fatal re
sults.-Carlsbad Argus.

But this man who knows and breaches
the danger of neglect in the loss of a

Of a physical breakdown.
DoNorHINc DOCTRINE.
That's the doctrine of a great many
indolent people. They say rit will go
away after a bit" when cautioned to vdo
something" for their ailment. Just
imagine a farmer looking over the fence
at the sprouting weeds in his corn and
saying "they'll go away after a bit"
Diseases are like weeds. All they ask
is neglect and they will grow and -four
ish. Neglect the first symptoms of dis
ease of the stomach and it will not be
long before other organs are involved,
because every organ of the body is de-
pendent on the stomach and its allied
organs for nutrition. When the stomach
and other organs of digestion and nutri-
ton are diseased the food eaten Is
not perfectly digested and assimilated.
Hence there is a loss of nutrition by the
body; a loss which shows itself in loss OF
flesh, and reduced weight, and that loss
of nutrition is shared by every organ of
the body, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys.
etc. As a consequence when the stom
ach Is diseased, the heart is liable to be
involved, Oh the lungs, kidneys or liver.
These facts emphasize the danger OF
neglect of what is popularity termed
Ustomach trouble.r

Medical Discovery will generally result in
acomplete cure of disease of the stomach

A mar giving his name as John r.
Crane, dropped into the grocery de-
partment of the Romero Mercantile
company last evening about $50, with
a depleted larder and a bad check. He
handed a long list of needed groceries
to Hopolito Baca to be Immediately
filed, and with an air of a millionaire
stepped out without asking the con
dition of the market or caring whether
eggs We're up or down.
On account Of the size of the order
and the indifference displayed by the
customer, 1t was decided to withhold
the filling of the order until the
stranger returned.
He came back in a few minutes, and
an itemized statement was filled out
and the prices were very satisfactory
to the customer, and in payment for
the bill of goods he rendered a Gus
