STORY FROM AN ABSTRACT.
Farm Now In Kansas City Sold by Sen.
ator CockrelI In Boyhood.

Farm Now in Kansas City Sold by Sem
atOr Cockrell in Boyhood.
II Senator Francis Marion Cockrell
could have foreseen when he was II
boy that the great city of the Missouri
valley would be built here at the june
tion OF the Kaw and Missouri rivers
he might now be multlmllllonalre. In
examining an abstract to lot on
Tracy, between Thlrty.sixth and Thlr-
ty-seventh streets, r. j. Holmden, the
attorney, made the discovery that
Cockrell, In lS47, when he was boy
of 13, owned eighty acres there, and
he sold it all for $500. The lot which
Mr., Holmden was looking up sold re-
Gently for $4,000.
The land, GAO acres of It, was decided
by the United States government in
1927 to the State OF Missouri for semi
nary purposes. The tract was all of
section 81, township 49, range 49, In
1888 Joseph Cockrell, father of the
Senator, bought eighty acres of 1t from
the State for $202 an acre. Mr. Cock
rell died, and in 1S47, when Francis
Marion Cockrell was l3 years old. he
petltioned the court, through his guar
dian to sell the eighty acres.
In his petition he said that he al
ready owned farm In Wnrrensburs
sufficiently large for his needs when
he should become OF age, and, besides,
he said,, the big storm of 1874, the
year OF the great flood, had blown
down all the trees on his eighty-acre
tract in Jackson county and therefore
It would be useless for him to hold II
because, when he would come of age,
the timber would be all dead Hicks
and Smart Of Independence were Cock
rel's lawyers. The court granted his
request and the land was bought by
Joseph Brown for S900,-Kansas City

A TRIP TO TIE MOON.
Some of the Odd Things One Might Find
on Such Voyage.

on Such a Voyage.
How would you like to take trip
to the moon2 1t would be a lona
journey, taking more than six months
IL you went with the speed Of I'm ex-
press train; or II you Travelled with
the swlftness of a ball from modern
cannon, 1t would take about as long
as a trip across the Atlantic In fast
steamer. Under average atmospheric
conditions, a large telescope gives dp
view Of the moon as 1t would be
without the telescope at distance of
800 miles from us.
The necessary outfit for the journey
must be much more extensive than sor
any trip on the earth, even the trip
to the North Pole. There will be no
chance ito live OFF the country" In
addition to warm clothing and food
you must carry with you all you need
to drink, and the problem of keeping
1t from freezing or thawing it out II
frozen will not be an easy one TO
solve. There is practically no air on
the moon, and you must take along
supply for breathing. If you expect
to make fire and cook your dinner
you must take, in addition to fuel, an
additional supply of air to keep your
fire going.
But suppose that In some way you
are landed on the moon with supply
OF things necessary for sustaining life
II you are on a part Of the moon on
which the sun is shining you will mar
vel, perhaps, first of all, at the
dazzling brilliance of the sunlight and
the intense blackness of the shadows.
Everything in the shade will be in al
most total darkness, as there is no air
filed with little dust particles to scat
ter the sunlight so that 1t may illu-
inmate the places out of the direct
path Of its rays.
And what sense of desolation will
present itself to your view! The Desert
OF Sahara would look like luxurlant
park in comparison with the lunar
landscape. Not blade of grass, not
a tree, or brook, or lake-nothing but
q vast, stony, silent desert There are
plains, not quite as level as our West
crn prairies and great numbers of
mountains, most Of them much sleeper
than those on the EARTH they are not
grouped In long ranges, as our terres-
trial mountains generally are, but are
scattered all over the surface, singly
and in irregular groups. Most Of them
are shaped more or less like our ter.
restrial volcanoes, and they probably
we're volcanoes ages ago, before the
moon cooled off.
If you happen to land on part OF
the moon where 1t Is early morning
you will have plenty Of time for ex.
plorations before night comes on. The
sun rises and sets as 1t does OH the
earth, but the time between sunrise
and sunset Is nearly fifteen of ouI
days. Then during the long lunar
night our earth will act like the moon
and will light up that part of the
moons surface which Is turned to
ward 1t. Only there will be this curl
GUS difference: 1t will not rise and set
J but will remain nearly stationary In
the same region Of the sky. From the
side Of the moon which Is always
turned away from us the earth, Of
course, can never be seen at all.-St
J Nicholas.

GERMAN OFFICERS AS SPIES.
Always Busy Acquiring Information
of Military VaIue,

Always Busy Acquiring Information
of Military Value.
How many know that every German
naval officer who is ostensibly taking a
holiday In the United States is in real.
lty a spy? That is the plain English
word that best fits the case, though, OF
course, even the Germans do not call
their officers in foreign countries by
that name. The reason is that the
German naval officer Is never Off duty.
When on a holiday he is expected to
60 to foreign countries, where he must
endeavor to visit arsenals, inspect bat
tleshlps and acquire as much lnforma
ton as possible, backed up by rough
maps and sketches, all Of which he
sends back to the German admiralty.
Hence, when a German naval officer
visits" the United States his visits
to Fort wadsworth and to our navy
yards and shipyards are not entirely
dlslnterested.
Every officer In the German navy Is
taught to sketch from memory, and
according to his skill In drawing, he ls
marked out for promotion. When the
German training ship Charlotte, with
the crown prince aboard, visits the
United States, on her cruise around the
world, certain 1t Is that the officers
will 20 ashore and make memory
sketches" which will afterward be
made into maps Thus, should Ger
many ever be at war with the United
States the fact that we have hospita
bly, afforded opportunities for sketch
Ing our fortified positions will prove OF
immense advantage--to the Germans
For every German experience In
such matters is recorded, as ! have
said, for future use, and thus "holl
day" experiences are utilized fol
checking, correcting and enlarging Ger
man naval maps and charts of places
not only in the United States, but also
in all parts OF the world. Turning to
the German army, the same memory
sketching" and the same making OF
maps are expected Of all officers "off
duty" particularly In the United
States and England.-Leslle's Weekly.

of every day lie.

of every day life.
When mere babe che had been cast
ashore like 30 much driftwood. And
all OF her young life che had been
buheted about on the bay and river in
small fishing boat like cockle-shell.
She had become so interlinked with
danger that II seemed her constant COM
panion and she only thought Of it as
such.
"Thst kid was as calm when we
drew her from the jaws Of death as If
che were rowing boat On a summers
day." had remarked one Of the life
savers.
"The fret thing she did was to bend
over the old man and begin rubbing his
hands, said another.
1t was not Sankala's bad seamanship
OF lack Of skill that led her across the
danger line, but 1t was her lack OF
strength. The trap they tended lay to
the west nearer the bar than others
and while rounding the rocks to reach
the trap the undertow, unusually strong
from the all night storm, caught her
and carried her boat away by sheer
force.
She was meditating over the days
exciting episodes and she condition OF
her companion. Young aa she was,
she knew that Ringwold could not last
much longer. They were reduced to
the direst straits. Fishing was poor
and wages were poorer. Ringwold was
no longer useful. He was more of a
hindrance as co-worker. His COM
pan onehip was all that was left her.
They now only earned scant living
and should Ringwold become bed-rid-
den she did not know what she would
do. He had not confded fully to her
the secret OF her life and the mysteries
Of the documents concealed under the
hearth. Would these help her? She
made up her mind that should Ring
would recover again sne would broach
the subject to him.
1t was not 80 much for her own self
that she was prompted, but she wished
to ease the old mans life in his last
days. He had made a great struggle
for her and she wished to repay him in
some way.
While meditating over her troubles,
there came loud, heavy knock at the
door. 1t sounded like the rap oi
doom. She could not tell why, but
she trembled. Sankala was not in the
habit of experiencing such sensations.
She went to the door and opened it.
"Come inl" she said in a hollow
tone.
1t was old Seadogl What could
bring him at such an hour OF the
night. Then old Seadog always sent
for his employees instead of calling
upon them.
"Will you be seated2" asked the
girl.
"No. Have but minute. How il

81 cannot tell," replied Sankala
"He is quite feeble, but he has beer

"Yes," replied seadog. "He is get

Storm CAnnona.

The storm cannons now in use along
the southern side of the Alps, where
damage from hailstorms during har-
vest time is imminent look like huge
megaphone, such as boat-crew coaches
use, and they are set with their wide
mouths gaping skywand, beside little
houses that look like sentry boxes.
When they are fired they boom like
'sure enough" cahnons, and send re-
verberating, echolng, boom-booms car
romlng about among the hillsides; but
instead Of ball or shell, or other sim
liar proJectile, they emit a ring Of
smoke which grows larger and larger
as 1t ascends, until at last, before il
breaks, 1t is big enough to surround a
ten-acre field. What the effect of a
smoke ring upon mischlevously In
tent cloud Is cannot exactly say, but
instead of hail, only rain falls when
the guns are used, and damage to
crops is prevented
