BURRO FALLS 100 FEET.
Slips From Mountain Trail and Lands
in Tree.

in Tree.
burro belonging to A. M. Maggie
and L. w. Noble of Los Angeles, Cal.
fell so far in two minutes that it took
zen hours TO get him back again.
Nagle and Noble were traversing an
old abandoned trail in the mountains
in the Lyle creek region, when the
trail became blind owing TO
erosion caused by the winter
rains. They persisted in their
attempt to get over the bad
stretch of road and had nearly sue
ceeded when their burro upon which
was loaded their camp outfit, slipped
and went over the precipice and land
ed in live oak tree 100 feet below.
The animal apparently stunned by
the fall, remained quiet till they got
down to him, when he began kicking.
This dislodged him from his position
in the tree and he fell to the ground,
twenty feet below, none the worse for
the fall
II took the men all day to cut a
trail and get the burro out Of the can
yon.

wood and Steel.

The old wooden frigate Saratoga,
which was launched nearly sixty years
ago. and is still pursuing a career OF
usefulness as a schoolship, is an OBJ
ject lesson In the durability OF wood
as a material for shipbuilders. Paint
and oil preserve it from decay. What
will do as much for iron and steel, the
materials of which modern warships
are built? Will the bsttleships and
cruisers OF today be as staunch after
fifty years of salt water service as
the Saratoga is?

Mrs. r. p. Benjamin of Montpelier,
VT. is the possessor of freak in the
form of a kitten six weeks old. The
kitten is bobtailed, of tiger color. but
OF most peculiar shape, half of its
body-the forelegs and head-like a
cat, and the hind legs and hips like
those of rabbit, so its gait is most
peculiar; while the forefeet are
planted softly. one after another, after
the manner of cats, the hind legs fol-
low in an awkward sort of hop. The
kittens appearance is ludicrous, but
1t appears likely TO live and grow.

Nlichigan's first experience with ac-
tive warfare In the army maneuvers,
from many standpoints was not the
success il should have been, although
the men did the best they possibly
could do under the conditions. With
out ammunition and with only vague
idea of what was expected OF them,
the members of the First Regiment,
headed by Col. c. w. Harrah, were
pitted against two troops of cavalry.
namely. the l. and c. OF the Seventh
United States Cavalry, under command
of Capt. VI. G. Butler. This was only
one of the six detached maneuvers
planned for the troops for the day,
the problem given the Michigan. regi-
ment TO solve being TO march to Null
draughs, about six miles, through steep
and stony hills. the country supposed
TO be hostile All precautions were to
be taken to discover and prevent the
enemy from attacking the regiment.
The Michigan regiment left camp
shortly after 10 o'clock and their APP
pearancc was inspiring. For some rea-
son or other the Michigan regiment LETT
camp without ammunition, an over
sight which greatly spoiled the man
euvers Who is responsible for the
failure to provide the troops with cart
ridges has not yet been determined,
but ii was Il glaring error. The Mich
igan boys were simply at the mercy
of the cavalry and many of them made
no effort to protect themselves, for IT
was useless. Other state troops re-
ceived their ammunition all right and
there seems 10 be no reason why the
Michigan men should not have been
properly equipped. 1t was an omission
which caused considerable adverse
criticism both by the officers and men.

EDITORIAL OPINION
win You Wan, Into Ny ParIor7

Will You Walk Into MY Parlor?
From the Philadelphia Press
AS we view it, the Delaware situation
has not essentially changed. The Regu-
lar Republicans have persistently re-
fused to go into caucus with the Ad-
dicks Republicans because the certain
result OF that caucus would be the
nomination Of Mr. AddiclSs, and am Ad-
dicks man to fiji the two vacant sena-
toria lterms. Mr. Addicks, despairing
of his own election at the present time
withdraws and invites his Republican
opponents to caucus with his adherents
with the certainty that two Addicks
men will be made senators and the
way prepared fer the election Of Ad-
dicks himself two years hence.
THE Regular Republicans do not
show much eagerness' to bite ct this
bait. 1t is not a very enticing balt-
the hooks are in evidence from every
point of view. Mr.. Addicks apparently
hoped to stampede them and fixed the
caucus for the evening OF the day en-
which his withdrawal was announced,
with an alternative for the day follow
ing He evidently did net care to give
them too much time to think it over
But the gentlemen concerned declined
to be stampeded.
Mr. Addicks' conditional Withdrawal
has been extended until tomorrow The
trap remains OPEN but we do not con-
ceiye that there is the least likelihood
of the Regular Republicans entering
IL The acrcnfanpa of thp Addicke
proposition as made on Friday would
be practically an unconditional surren-
der to Addicks. He cannot be elected
by this Legislature. so he loses moth
ing by postponing his candidacy for
two years. In the meantime, having
two United States senators and the
local Republican organization with
him. his triumph two years from now
would be inevitable.
1t is possible that out of the present
chaos some proposition for the election
Of senators will appear that the Regu-
lars can accept with consistency and
self-respect The Addicks proposition
