Buying Wheat

In talk with the new management
of the Kendrick Mills we learn that
Mr.. Hardy, who is in charge is now
buying wheat and is open for all en-
gagements Of that kind. 1t is hoped
that the mill will be able to start up in
about two weeks, when they will make
a run on blue stem wheat. The man
agement is now in negotiation with a
fine miller. whom they hope TO. have
permanently employed. For the pre-
sent MIR. Hardy will be the purchasing
agent. E. p. Atchison is directing the

is quite little work to he done on the

If the money has been so placed

Pencil In Her Face.

A remarkable case comes from Pittsburg. Pa It seems that q girl seven years old came to the clinic of the Pittsburg Dental College. She showed slight wound on the right cheek which had lately healed. She told the doctors In attendance that she had fallen down stairs and cut her jaw so that doctor had to sew it up. But there still seemed to be something wrong There was a lump beneath the wound, and no dentist could find anything wrong with the teeth. The surgeons consulted noticed that there was distinct hard substance In front of the jawbone. and that it appeared to be movable When the lump was pressed the flesh and skin in front of the right ear moved AS if some substance extended from the mouth to the ear. The doctors agreed that nothing could be done without an incision to find out what was In the tissues, and the parents of the child agreed to it.
 The surgeon cut into the cheek at the place lately healed, and the scalpel at once touched something hard. Hweezers were
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-06-21

used, and, to the surprise of all, half of wooden slate pencil was pulled out. Alter another attempt the other half of the pencil was removed, with the slate centre un- broken. It was then clear that when the child fell down the stairs she must have run the slate pencil into her cheek. but part of It had broken off in the wound, so that the point was not visible to the physi- clan who first sewed up the wound.
 The peculiar feature of the incident is that a piece of pencil three and one-half inches long should have made its way between the bones of tine skull In the only possible way that 1t could have found en- trance. Here is a picture of an adult skull with a bit of pencil of this length inserted to show exactly how this one was forced in by accident, but 1t must not be forgotten that the child was only seven years old and the skull Is much smaller than that shown here It Is especially remarkable that the point of the pencil did not injure the exter- nal maxillary artery, since the point of the pencil must have reached It, If if did not pass it, otherwise the child might have bled to death very quickly

 Yes" was the answer.
 But suppose the signature is rather long?" asked the Duke.
 That doesn't make the slightest differ ence," answered the clerk
 The Duke wrote the 10 words which formed the message and then signed his name as fol- lows:
 ,Cristobal Colon de Toledo Larreategui de la Carda Ramirez de Baquedano Gante, Amira nte Adelantado Mayor de las Indies, Marques de Ia Jamaica, Due de Veragua de la Vega, Grnnde de Espana, Senador del Reno, Caballero de Ia 1nsigne Orden del Tor son de Orc, Grand Cruz de la Conception de Nillaviciosa, Gentil Hombre de Camara del Re de Espana."

While travelling over a mountain in Ger many recently a tourist saw the curious sight which is reproduced in the accompanying picture. There are telegraph poles on the two of them were completely covered with ice. Moreover, one had been torn from the ground by a storm, but had been prevented from falling by the rigid shroud which en- veloped it.
 The two frozen poles presented such novel appearance that the tourist photo graphed them, and from this photograph the accompanying picture was taken. The ice surrounding each pole was several inches ia thickness.

Magnetic Persons.

Professor Murani, n distinguished Italian scientist, says that certain persons possess q strange magnetic or electric influence, which produces very curious results
 A few days ago while he was at work on some electrical experiment.. one of his friends suddenly entered the room. and q the same moment the needle of his galVanometer moved to and fro very rapidly. He was sure that his friend had in one of his pockets either a magnet or some ether electrical in- strument, and in order to convince him that he was mistaken his friend removed all his clothes. To the Professors surprise the gal vnnometer continued to act just as though powerful magnet was near it, and the closer hls friend approached the moro marked its action became Moreover the front of the body acted on 1t in the same manner as the positive pole of a magnet and the back as q negative pole.

Italian Brigandage.

Brigands are constantly giving trouble to the Italian government, which seems rather strange in view of the fact that rewards are assured to any persons who wage success ful war against these law breakers,
 According to an edict which dates back to the time when the Pope was all powerful in Ita.y. and which is still in force. any one who captures brlgand alive and who hands him over to justice Is entitled to a reward of 5000: any one who kills brigand will re ceIye a reward of $500: any one who captures hr-lrand chief will get $l,2O0. and any brtpand who betrays m accompice will be nardoned for his past crimes and will receive S1oo as an additional reward. This last re- ward has very seldom been paid. since itai- ian brignnds are not accustomed to petray each other.

Leading Russian journals are now proudly drawing attention to the fact that there has been for some time in the hospital at Tomsk man who has lived for more than two hundred years. Knowing well that the public would be 10th to believe such a story unless ample evidence Of its truth were forthcoming, they further point out that they have carefully examined his birth and marriage certificates and can tfstify that his married life lasted forty seven years and that he has been widower one hundred and twenty-five years
 This wonderful old man has been bed ridden for some time. but his brain Is as clear as ever it was, and nothing pieases him more than to tell visitors how he once had the good fortune to see Peter the Great and Queen Catherine.

REMARKABLE FUNERAL RITES.

"One thing sure to shock the American tourist Is a Greek funeral" said a recently returned traveller. Ut Is a spectacle which most persons of convention governed decency desire to avoid because the body of the dead Is exposed in an open hearse. The coffin is shallow, so that not only the face and head but the hands and much of the body can be seen from the sidewalk as the procession moves through the streets.
 "The lid of the coffin, frequently richly up- holstered and decorated with garlands and wreaths, Is carried on the hearse by the un- dertaker. The priest, the relatives and other mourners follow, and as the ghastly spectacle

 Tn the Athens cemeteries graves are rent ed for a term of years, just like the habita- tlons of the quick. Only the wealthy own burial tots. This Is invariably an evidence of wealth or aristocracy.
