Woman Saves Man From Bear.

The topic of the hour in Canada's
capital is the heroism displayed by
Mrs. Turner, wife Of the American
Consul-General, who comes from Wa.
terbury, Conn. At great risk she saved
the life of N. E. Cormier, game warden
Of Quebec, who is well known to Amer.
lean sportsmen who come to Canada
after big game.
Mr.. Cormer has private menagerIe
in Aylmen, seven miles away, and
Colonel and Mrs. Turner visited it. AS
Cormier was feeding apples to a large
bear the animal lunged forward
caught him in his shaggy bosom and
sank his teeth in his neck. Mrs. Tur.
ner, who was standing behind the
bear, rushing forward, grasped his fur
with both hands and epdeavored to
pull him away. Colonel Turner then
seized the bear by the neck and he
dropped Cormier, who was promptly
pulled out Of danger by the Colonel.
Mrs. Turner jumped beyond the bears
reach as it turned to attack her.
Cormier nearly died from loss of
blood before the doctors arrived. The
cash in his neck came very close I'd

torn off and his scalp and hands were
lacerated. The bear was. shot by the

which two boatloads of the crew were
seen off, the boats being swamped
from overcrowding.
"They were lightened when it was
noticed that three men We're hanging
from the anchor chains Of the Yoshina
Maru. They Were taken aboard the
lifeboat. Finding it impossible to ap-
proach the vessel amidships, where
the captain and two engineers were
standing they were asked to jump
into the sea. They did so and were
picked up. AS the captain was unable
to swim, the rescue Of these officers
was particularly dangerous, and was
made by the first officer, Arnold
Loomis Olendorf. He sustained severe
bodily INJURIES in getting the men out
of the water.
"There is no doubt" says Consul
Harris in concluding, "that but for
the prompt and efficient action Of the
crew of the Crook many lives would
have been lost."-New York Sun.

When fortunes were being made by
British merchantmen running the
blockade OF Southern ports during our
Civil War, Sir William Allan, who had
served in the engineering department
of the British Royal Navy, signed as
chief engineer on a merchant steamer.

At this cool reply the officer dropped
his pistol, and the two were soon good

HAD A ROUGH EXPERIENCE.
An English Newspaperman Got Into
All Kinds of Trouble.

Thomas j. Minnick, an English
newspaper man, sought glory by i'm
itating the old-time American re-
porter's trick of having himself
locked in Belgian madhouse to Sc
cure a sensation. The doctors, how
ever, "got on" to Thomas and to
teach him a lesson dosed him with
vomiting powders. Next he was put
on a diet of sour herrings and no
water; at night he wasn't allowed to
sleep and when he complained he
was told he had tumor in his brain
and was imagining i'll treatment. He
would feel better as soon as the
tumor was cut out. When finally the
doctors tried to chloroform him and
made preparations to operate upon
him, Thomas disclosed his identity.
But the doctors would not let him off.
They sent him under guard to the po-
lice station, where he was booked as
an imposter and for obtaining the
county's charity under false preten-
ses.

There is no noon hour in the low

work goes on continuously under the
present day pressure Of business,
and the clerks and other employees
go out for luncheon in relays, begin

this change has come a shortening Of

Fight For Life in q Nef.

Tangled in a big fishing seine after
the capsizing of their boat one mile

George Beck, two Evanston firemen.
struggled for their lives for two hours
in Lake Michigan. Not until the i'm
periled men had cut the net, which
was 800 feet long, in two, were they
able to eXtricate themselves. Then,
thoroughly exhausted with their ef-
forts to keep afoat while they were
escaping from the death trap, they
battled again with the waves, and, by
aiding one another, swan to the beach
in safety.
The Becks, who live at 2140 Maple

in the morning to take in the seine,
which they had set off Crosse Point

Graham county jail, at Clifton,
Ariz., is unique. 1t comprises four
large apartments hewn from the solid
quartz rock of hillside. The en-
trance is through boX-like vestibule
built of heavy masonry and equipped
with three sets of steel gates. The
floor of the rock-bound Jail is of ce-
ment. and the prisoners are confined
exclusively in the larger rooms.
Some of the most desperate GRIM
inals on the Southwest border have
been confined in the Clifton jail, and
so solid and heavy are the barriers
to escape that no one there has ever
attempted q break for freedom.
The notorious Black Jack was there
for months. The wall of quartz about
the Jail is Is feet thick. Clifton is
one Of the great copper mining
camps in Arizona, and has the rep
utation of being as depraved a COM

of civilization. In summer the mer-
curry there frequently rises to 120 in
the shade, and in the winter never
goes below 40 degrees.

A Daring Rescue.

Details of daring and courageous
rescue of the officers and crew of the
burning British steamship Yoshina
Maru, by seamen of the army trans
port Crook, has been received at the
State Department, Washington, from
United States Consul Harris, at Naga-
saki. Japan. The official report of the
conduct of the American seamen was
transmitted by the Department of
State to the Secretary of War.
The Yoshina Maru was bound from
Shanghai to Kobe, partly loaded with
cotton. When near Satelvo Misalzi.
Van Dieman's Strait, she caught fire.
and the Crook, on perceiving this, al
tered her course and approached the
burning ship. This was done with
great difficulty, says Mr.. Harris. "as
the sea was running high and the
Crook was being steered by hand, her
steam steering gear having been dis
abled." He adds:
"On approaching the Yoshina Maru,
she was found to be afire from stem
to stern. A lifeboat was lowered and
the first officer placed in charge. Six
persons were rescued by him under
very hazardous circumstances by rea-
son of the heavy sea and the intense
heat from the burning ship, from

Destiny of Canada.

Canadians have organized Prefer
ence League, with the motto, Can
ada," the members pledging them
selves to buy Canadian products and
manufactures when the quality is
equal to, and the cost not in excess
of, foreign articles" Unfortunately,
these conditions seldom. if ever, oc-
cur. The manifest destiny Of Canada
is to become part Of the United States,
so as to offset our acquisitions in
the Southwest. The sooner the fact
is recognized and the nobler motto,
"All America for Americans" adopt
ed, the better for both countries.

Russian government has already

they are hard at work. That govern

IOtal ............... 4O3
The total enrolment is $50; 105
more than the enrolment the first
week last year
1t will be seen from the above list
that the Central school with nine
rooms enrolls 80 pupils more than
the West school with eleven rooms.
Numerous complaints have been
made because pupils Of the east side
have been compelled to go to the
West school. 1t would be we'll for
parents TO consider that the superin-
tendent and teachers are not in the
least responsible for the condition
which make the greater amount of
school room on the west side. 1t is
our duty to equalize grades as near
as possible. In discharging this we
can recognize no difference in people
We have been obliged to use the
small recitation room and the base
ment again in the Central school in
order to find a place for pupils. This
will give the Central school two
second grades and the full day SEES
sion can be resumed again in that
grade next week.
We have been compelled to send
many east siders to the west side
school, Notwithstanding the numer-
GUS complaints, and it will be seen
by reference to above grades that
several more go there regardless of
protests. 1t is not a matter of grant
ing favOrs to any one. 1t is wholly
a matter Of meeting unpleasant CON
ditions into which we have been
plaC ed.
Parents who have children who are
to enter the first grade this week
should send them at once that they
may better meet the conditions for
promotion at the end of the year.
In the future the people of Kalis-
pell will be called upon to vote a new
issue Of bonds for another school
building. If. as is generally conced-
ed, the new building is to be an addi-
ton to the present brick building on
the west side the same crowded CON
dition of the east side school will
prevail 1t has been my contention
for the past year that the only way
by which the crowded condition of
the Central school can be overcome
with complaints from patrons, is to
| locate a ward in Duncans addition,
consisting of the first four grades.
For the present year however, we
hope the parents will try to be pa
tient and assist in the equalization
of the number in the various grades
by reserying complaints until they
see that an injustice has been done
them a transfer of pupils.
Teachers are struggling hard under
adverse conditions to arrange the as
signment Of pupils to rooms so as to
obtain the greatest possible working
capacity of the schools.
The people Of Kalispell alone are
responsible for the conditions and
! location of the school buildings.
Teachers and superintendent are
employed to teach and superintend
the schools, but surely they are not
responsible for conditions: surely nc
one who will take the pains to in
vestigate the n after will attach any
blame to teachers and superintend
