Bluebeard a Real Hero,

The original Bluebeard of nursery
lore was GILES, Marquis de Laval and
marshal of France. He was fearless
general, and greatly distinguished him
self under Charles vi. and Charles
VII, but his bravery was completely
eclipsed by his cruelty and wicked
ness. Wherever he went he was fol-
lowed by his band of actors. sorcorers,
packs Of hounds, and crowds Of retain
ers. 1t was said he would gain the
love Of young boys and girls and then
kill them in order to obtain their blood
for incantations and charms. The
Duke Of Brittany, against whom he
had committed crime of state, con-
demned him to be burnt alive at Nan
tes but later he took pity on him and
remitted the sentence so that he was
strangled before he was burned.

ROMANCE OF A FARM.
After Many Generations In One Family
1t Has Become an Orphanage.

After Many Generations In One Family
1t Has Become an Orphanage.
A romantic story, one In which a
number of stirring incidents are re-
lated, is told of little farmhouse and
forty-seven acres of land that have
been turned over to a great church or
ganization for an orphanage.
The property is located on the main
line of the Northwestern road, about
two hours out from Chicago, and ad-
joins the little village of Nachusa The
land was handed down from genera
ton to generation by family of the
name Of Dysart. By member Of this
family 1t was originally taken up from
the government, and remained in the
family until 1t fell into the possession
OF Colonel Alexander Dysart, who for
years was one of the best known citi-
zens Of the section. He was man of
some eccentricities, but beloved by the
whole community. He raised family
of sons, three of whom became engi-
neers on the Northwestern road and
are now running trains. The colonel.
during his lifetime improved the old
home, which in early years was but
cabin, until it assumed the proportions
of fine country home. He surround
ed it with double row of pine trees.
and these for miles may be seen from
points along the road
When the colonel was well along In
years he fell in love with a widow,
and against the wishes OF his family
married her, only to be divorced in Ii
few years. s.....
Within sight of the Dysart home
was the farm of Peter Durham. u
sturdy German, the father OF an IN
dustrious family. Among the children
was a daughter, Mary, who grew up
10 be as pretty a lass as could be found
in all Lee county A farmers daugh-
ter, she in due time became farmers
wife, marrying Henry Shippert Both
husband and wife had not one but sew
eral farms of rich Lee county land,
but after the body of old Colonel by
sart was laid to rest and the property
was offered for sale, Mrs. Shippert
bought 1t. Then she proposed 10 tho
Evangelical church, of which she is a
member, to convert the little farm into
an orphanage. The church accepted
the charge and recently the home of
the kindly old colonel was dedicated to
its noble purpose.-Chicago Tribune.

Influence of the Mind.


Prof. Elmer Gates, psychologist of
wide repute, claims to have recently
made the discovery that Unpleasant
emotions create harmful chemical
products in the body which are physi-
cally injurious. Good, benevolent
beneficial chemical products which are
physically healthful. These products,
II is declared. may be detected by
chemical analysis in the persplration
OF the individual. Prof. Gates says
he found more than forty of the bad
products and as many Of the good.
Everyone knows that grief will poison
a mothers milk; in fact, it generates
an injurious equality SO intense.in char
acter as to sicken an infant.
or all the chemical products OF emo
ton that Of guilt is said to be the
worst. If small quantity of the
perspirati of person suffering from
an emotion of this kind be placed in a
glass tube and exposed to contact
with scientific acid it will turn pink.
None of the other polsons similarly
generated exhibit the same phenom-
enon.
Pink would appear to be the pc
culiar color of wrongdolng. 1t is found
that for each bad emotion there is q
corresponding chemical change in the
tissue of the body which is life-press-
ing, exhausting and poisonous. On the
other hand, every good emotion makes
a life-promoting change.

According to the report of the United States census made in 1902, about 1O,0OO,OO0, acres of land in the United States are now being irrigated. Of this 600:O0O acres in rice fields along the Alt lantic and gulf coasts, 100000 in the semi-arid region and 5000 acres in the humid states. The remainder is in the arid region of the west and southwest. To water this area 59,243 miles of main canals and ditches have been constructed, while the later als leading from the canals to the fields represent an aggregate length many times this distance.
 It is conservatively estimated that $2OO, ,OOO,OOO has been ex- pended in irrigation development in the United States.-EX

It is not remembered if any such structures ever were asked for by Marcus smith, now candidate for a seventh term in Congress from Arizona.

PRESCOTT, Ariz. Nov. 1.-ThOm- as Brown, a wealthy Yavapai Count sheep owner, was brought here tonight to be lodged Tn the county jail for the killing this aft ernoOn near Ash Fork of two Mexican employees.
 The tragedy took place at a small sheep camp called Meade and owing to the remoteness of the place and the large number of Mexicans there 1t was necessary to send out d nalt-dozen deputy Sherlffs to prevent violence being done Brown.
 The $ ory of the killing as told here is that Juan Franco and Pedro Martinez attempted to as sualt Brown with long driks be- cause he had discharged them.
 Brown who has lived on the frontier all his life, alwayscarries two large Colts revolvers and when he saw the men appoarch- ing with murder in their eyes he shut once from each of his revolv- CTS, killing the two Mexicans.
 Meade is connected with Ash Fork by telephone and word was at once sent to Deputy Sheriff oe Young. Before he could arrive at the sheep camp with five other officers Brown was forced to barricade himself in a small log cabin to escape the wrath of Mexican friends of the dead men.
 Brown said here tonight that he shot in self defense and will be able to prove it in ourt.-Los Angeles Examiner
