 "They don'tr' exclaimed the mother in surprise She knew that Ee was at tending a school that had attained wide celebrity because of it's new methods" but she had only hay idea of the methods. Why rotf" she added.
 Because" the boy explained, that h suggesting wrong to us. We're really good, you know, and when we dc wrong it's because it's been suggested 10 us. l heard the teacher telling lady about it. She said that to tell child not to do 6 thing was to tempt him 10 do 1t; that everybody wanted to do what they were told not 10 do, and most of them never would think about 1t if nothing was said"
 There's some truth in that" re marked the mother.
 She said" the boy went on, If law was made for people not to walk in the street' there'd be hundreds of people doing 1t the next day just be cause they were told not to, people wAe never thought of getting of the side walk before"
 "I guess that's so." said the mother 'T never thought of it that way be fore-
 "Sbe said" the boy persisted, that if she had anything in the house she didn't want a child to get she would simply say nothing about it."
 Perhaps she's right" admitted the mother as she picked up some packages and wen. to the pantry. There were raisins and figs and oranges in the packages, and it had been her inten ton to caution the boy not to toucf them except when they were put on the table, but she refrained- That will only make him want them," she said ''I won't say word" :"
 So when the coast was clear the boy entered the pantry and feasted to his hearts content. And there he was found.

NOTED ROBBER ESCAPES.
Eddie Fay, Desperate Post Office Burg
lar, Breaks Jail at James
Vile, Wis.

GAINESVILLE, Wis, Aug 27.-Eddie Fay,
the most notorious post office robber in
America, has escaped from Jail here.
United States marshals and volun-
teers are striving to trace Fay, who is
charged with the robbery of the Supe-
rior, Wis, post Office and accused of
being the leader of the gang that robbed
the Chicago post Office of $4,000.
Fay, sometimes called 'the King OF
Post Office Robbers" was rescued by &C
completes from Chicago, who cut their
way into the Jail, freed him and helped
him to escape.
The escape of Fay was sensational.
Confederates working from the outside
of the Jail climbed the water pipe, sawed
the bars from the outer cell windows,
crawled through a hole eight inches
square and, with jimmies, forced the
doors of the cages in which Fay and Fla
herty, were locked, thus releasing the
pair. 4. ,-.. ,,.
Fay and Flaherty, with their confed-
crates, climbed through the hole, down
the water pipe and fed through the city
of GAINESVILLE to the Rock river, where
they secured a boat and rowed down
stream.
The Chicago robbery, of which Fay
was accused, was committed four years
ago. The robbers, crawling through a
tunnel under the temporary post Office
in the lake front, drilled through the
floor of the steel-lined vault and stole
$74 900 worth of stamps.

NO SUNDAY OPENING.
The st. Louis Worlds Fair officials
Deny Possibility of Any
Such Action.

st. Louis, Aug. 26.-Despite stories of
the possibility of Sunday opening which
have been printed broadcast of late, it
has been declared by representative of
the exposition company that such dis
cussion was not taken seriously by the
board of directors or the executive COM
mittee. 1t is the desire of the EXPOSE
ton officials to give the public to under
stand that the suggestion of open gates
on Sunday is absolutely futile. Secre-
tary Walter B. Stevens stated that cir
cumstances had made it impossible for
the exposition to be opened on Sunday,
no matter how loud the protests of pros
pective patrons might be, and that the
project had never been discussed by the
board of directors.
'The members of the board of d.
rectors of the worlds fair signed con-
tract with the United States government
STIMULATING that the exposition was not
to be opened on Sunday" said Secretary
Stevens. They are bonded individual
ly in large amounts to carry out this
contract. The talk of a 1oophole' in the
agreement is unfounded. There is not
even possibility that the worlds fair
will be opened on Sunday, much less a
probability. Further discussion of the
question is useless"

DRIFTED MANY MILES.
Adventure of Party of Young Folks
in a Rowboat on Green
Bay, Wis.

Marinette, Wis, Aug. 26-After
drifting 80 miles in a rowboat in one
of the heaviest seas ever known on
Green bay, party of two young ladies
and three children landed safely Thurs

The members of the party were Ger
trude Sawyer, aged 10, daughter of R.
]. Sawyer, of Menominee, Mich; Inez
Woessner, aged II, daughter of j. c.
Woessner; and two young sons and a
daughter of Frederick Baker
Thursday morning they left Fern
wood, resort about five miles from
here, where Mr.. Baker mas a summer
home. They rowed out until they got
into the heavy sea, when they were
unable to return. They were soon lost
sight of from the Marfnette shore and
three tugs and many sailboats were
sent out to search for them. They
could not be found and it was feared
that all had been lost.
The heroine of the adventure is Miss
Sawyer, who is senior in the Menomi-
nee high school. She compelled the
four others to lie down fiat in the boat
and then steered it with an oar. They
were picked up on the beach by a farm
er and taken to Sturgeon bay.

The man from the mining district made

The two giants had not been in the

that the aspirations of Munroe would
be quickly disposed of. The miner was
scared and awkward and Jeffries in the
first round had him twice On the can

Jeffries directed his bombardment
against the stomach of his opponent, and
each shot was followed by blow on the
jaw that sent Munroe to his knees. JEFF

manner. Some of the animals stam-
peded, trampling upon the injured peo-
pie, lying upon the ground.

were blown down and others were I'M
rooted. Hundreds of forest and fruit
trees were torn up and corn and oat
fields were laid waste, entailing a loss
of thousands of dollars.
The tornado followed comparatively
narrow path. Had it struck the grove
with full force the death list would have
been enormous, as 5000 people were in
the grove and 800 horses and carriages
were standing under the trees. A large
maple tree was uprooted in the grove.
its trunk and branches smashing six car
riages and killing four horses. Grin
Dalrymple, Miss Scott, his granddaugh-

onds busted themselves with smelling
salts and restoratives. When the two
came together for the second round the
laugh on the champions visage changed
to a look of determination that BODIED

Forty-five seconds after the gong

bloody, bruised mass of humanity, with
Jeffries standing over him, ready, if nee
essary, to put the quietus on the cham

II 1t were not improper to use the
expression concerning so tragic an af-
fair. 1t might be said that the continu
al carnage at Port Arthur, as report
ed by the Chefoo refugees, is becom-
Ing ridiculous. During the last month
tens OF thousands have daily been
slain by rumors. The aggregate of
these slaughtered armies would reach
into the hundreds of thousands, yet
the nghting is still going on with un-
diminished vigor. The truth is that.
while both Japanese and Russians
have sustainedsheavy losses, yet they
are nothing like those reported.
