The painful attempts of some OF
Bob Dunn's newspaper admirers to
find an new adjective to express the
superlative brand Of honesty which
we are told is peculiar to Bob-de-
serves attention. The longer the
majestic though genial presence of
the ex-auditor Ia contemplated by
some Of these Dunnatics, the more
lustrous appears the halo they have
fastened to his brow. and the harder
it is for them to express their feel
ings. But they should not despair.
"Melodies he could not utter
Ger Beethoven's soul would roll. -
The glorious seraph songs, the
swells and ascendings of the rapt
voices OF the soul, the celestial
melodies and inconceivable harmon
les, are beyond expression. But
Bob understands 'em all.

however. for three new stories have
come to light. One tells of q farmer
who was ploughing when the wind
struck him. What became of the
rustic is omitted, but the tornado
caught the plough in it's vortex and
whirled it around and around until
the entire field had been nicely
ploughed. Another farmer had q lot
of corn stored in q bin. In the side of
the bin was knothole. The tornado
caught the torn and drove the ccbe
thr ough the knothole. Smelling the
corn and leaving 1t in q nice little
pile on the floor. The third story is
about wagon which was standing in
another farmyard when the breeze
came along and upset it and started
the wheels spinning: The wind was
so hard that one of the wheels is still
revolving, and it is impossible to
stop it.

BUCHANAN WANTS TIME E
TENSION.

Minneapolis Journ al %: Repre-
sentative Buckman has taken up the
question of extension Of time for cut
ting pine on the Leech Lake reserva-
tion. which will be sold Dec. %. He
believes that inasmuch as regulations
for sale of timber on the open land g
of the reservation have been approved
by the secretary of the interior and
distributed among prospective bid
ders it is best not to make an effort to
change them. Timber on these
tracts is to be sold Dec. 6, and under
the regulation all timber must be re-
moved by July, 1906.
As to the timber on that portion of
the reservation reserved for forestry
purposes. 95 per cent Of which is to
be sold Dec. %. Mr.. Buchanan be-
lieves that the bidders should have at
least five years for its removal. He
pointed out to the land officials today
that many things might happen to
prevent the cutting of timber. among
them the outbreak of smallpox,
which has been prevalent in lumber
camps for the past few seasons. Then
the market might be unfave rable for
selling timber. He thinks that If
bidders are required to remove the
timber in short time they will take
all possible contingencies into con-
sideration, and put in lower bids than
If more time is allowed. This will
result IN direct loss Of revenue to
the Indians, who should get all they
can for the timber.

LURED TO LUNAT1C ASYLUM.
Raving Mantacs for Fifty
Seven Days.

How easy it is to get into mad
house and how hard for sane man to
get out is shown by the extraordinary
experience of Mr.. Clement BERTHE
Marriott, formerly on the Paris staff
of a London Journal and during the
Franco-German war and the commune
the special correspondent of a pro-
vincial newspaper. His father was as
sistant chaplain at the British en-
bassy chapel when Lord Cowley was
British ambassador to France, says a
special dispatch to the Chicago Inter
Ocean.
Mr.. Marriott declares that on No
vember 10 of last year, after receiving
the visit of medical man unknown to
him, he was decoyed downstairs,
pushed into closed carriage by two
strange men, and driven off, in spite of
his shouts and struggles, through the
crowded streets Of Paris to the Charen-
ton asylum for the insane, where he
was confined in room with a number
of raving maniacs. He demanded
writing materials, and wrote two let
tiers, one to his solicitor and another to
the British ambassador, Sir Edmund
Monson.
After night of terrible mental
anguish Mr.. Marriott was examined In
the morning by the doctor, who told
him thta the medical report on which
he had been admitted declared him to
be suffering from the delirjum of
Jealousy (delire de palousie), apparent
ly due to intoxication, although the
patient stated that he seldom took
anything stronger than diluted wine
and had never been intoxicated in his
life.
DR.. Christian medical officer of the
asylum, few days later certified that
there was no reason for Mr.. Marriott's
detention in the institution; but in
spite of this it was not until the Eng
.1islman had suffered 81 days confine-
ment in the madhouse that he was re-
leased through the combined efforts
of the British embassy andthe consul
hate. He was very weak and i'll, and
looked five years older. Mr.. Marriott
is now bringing an action against those
whom he holds responsible for his in
generation. a.,
The victim of this strange and dis
agreeable adventure admits that he
owes it to his nationality that he is a
free man to-day, for as soon as the
British embassy learned of his confine-
ment Mr.. Inglis, consul general, and
Mr.. Atlee, vice consul, Investigated the
matter and secured his release.

There is an epidemic of lynching
throughout the country, and the GEN.
trail figures in these tragedies are not
always negroes. 1t probably doesn't
take much more pull on the rope to
strangle white man, and when
mobs learn this, and they seem to be
absorbing the knowledge, this
lynching habit will be reprobated in
some quarters where it is now either
excused or slightly condemned.

Chicago American: Statistics are
usually dull, but when they give us
very big figures they fix our attention
and our imagination upon important
truths. Consider some figures in con-
nection with the life :: of man who
reaches the Pope's sge-ninety- three
years.
The human heart beats on an
average seventy-five times a minute.
This would mean four Thousand five
hundred times an hour, one hundred
and eight thousand times q day. It
would mean In the case of q man
ninety-three years old three billion six
hundred and sixty-eight million five
hundred and forty thousand heart
beats. Remember that even q million
is number inconceivsble to us-it
is mere word. Our minds do not
accept such figures. A billion is q
Thousand millions, and the heart of u
man OF ninety-three has pumped
steadily three billion six hundred and
sixty eight million five hundred and
Jorty-fou Thousand times. or THREE
THOUSAND MILLIONS of times and
six hundred and sixty. eight millions
more.
How imperfect do other machines
seem in comparison with this wonder
full machine put into Us at birth,
capable of running on for century or
more, with no repairs, invisible to
every eye and to every force oave the
wise forces of nature which created
1t.
The most perfect engine breaks
down, the most perfect watch must
be repaired at intervals. The human
heart goes on without q single break,
pumping the life-giviDg blood
throughout the body more than three
billion Of times without single slip.

DUTCH IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Arc Better a. Farmer and Politl.
clans Than the En6lish, Says
, an En81bsh Writer.

Aue DQCSQ dIS D6t6er men on the
land than the English. Mr.. Rhodes
affirmed 1t as strongly as Benjamin
Kidd. Not only are they better men
but they are much c]everer politicians,
writes W. T. Stead in >Booklovers Mag
azine. DR.. Gordon .sprigg, the pres
ent premier Of Cape Colony, told me
last year that the rough Dutch farm
ers from the back country had such .
natural intuitive genius for politics
that after three weeAs tn parliament
they could give poinas to any British
member who had been In the house
for months.
Not only are they better men all
round on land, not only are they ADLER
politicians all pound in the houses of
parliament, but, what is far more i'm
portant, they are better breeders of
men. The British colonist, following
the example of the Frenchman ana the
New Englander> shrinks from the
primal task Of mdltip ying and increas-
ing and replenishing the earth. The
Dutch cradle is never empty. If the
hand that rocks the cradle sways the
world, it is not less true that the race
that fills the cradle will possess the
world. Hence the destiny of South
Africa seems tolerably certain to be
that of federation of self-governing
states, prominently Dutch, which will
or will not be sheltered by the union
jack, according to the readiness of the
imperial government to recognize
that it has no authority over African
ders.
