Outright

IA Ration man tells a good story Of

Las Vegas. A high fence surrounds
the grounds Of the Santa Fe at the
Gate City. Officer Outright has
charge OF the force OF deputies that
guard the shops and yards and his
orders to prevent any ingress or
egress are very strict. "A few nights
ago. ne espied the proportions Of a
man rising silently above the high
fence and apparently making for a
perch In a contiguous tree. The
quondam marshal saw In the figure
q man with fell designs on company
property.
Get down." he yelled in s~tentofian
tones, The figure backed down q
Bit and then again began to creep
silently upward. Get down, or I'll
shoot yelled the officer. The fig-
ure began to rise with accelerated mo-
ton. Beng, bang spoke the off,
GERS gun, but the figure kept IN ris-
ing. He fired again. No effect. He
began to have a spooky feeling.
Suddenly the mar In the tree lost
his balance and came tumbling down.
He pitched over the fence and lay
PROSTATE within the yards. The off
Ger had visions Of trouble. However,
he approached the silent figure and
began a search for wounds. Then the
lights burned blue for a time. Investi

VEST THAT TURNS BULLETS
Wonderful Waistcoat Given to
President Roosevelt.

Casimir Zeglan of South Bend, Ind,
has finished bullet-proof cloth waist
coat for President Roosevelt.
The waistcoat is one-fourth of an
inch thick and weighs less than half
pound to the square foot. 1t is soft
and flexible, and is to be worn under
an outer vest. The process of making
the garment is kept secret, but it is
said to have stood every practical test.
Mr.. Zegland, the inventor, is native
of Portland,
"The cloth is merely woven silk"
said Mr.. Zeglan, "and its secret is
wholly in the closeness of the weav.
ing. | am certain that it will stop any
leaden bullet from revolvers, shrap-
nels and sporting guns, although a
steel bullet would probably pass
through it.'
"Suppose the wearer were to be
shot at with military rifle, would the
waistcoat be founG satisfactory" the
inventor was asked.
"No, no." he replied, 81 have a
heavier cloth for that purpose. 1t is
an inch thick and weighs two pounds
to the square foot"
The cloth from which the waistcoat
for President Roosevelt was made was
tested in the presence of Mayor Fogar-
ty, the police chief and members of
the board of public safety of South
Bend. Zeglau placed the garment
oyer his chest, walked fifteen PAGES
from police sergeant and requested
him to make the initial test by shoot
ing at him with 44.caliber revolver.
The request was refused. The silken
cloth was then placed against brick
wall. The first bullet made a slight
depression in the wall, showing that it
had struck.
"Wheres the bullet?" inquired a
spectator.
The inventor walked y feet from
the target and picked up the missile.

SMALLPOX SITUATION in GEORGIA
People Realize the Extent Which the Disease
Has Spread. 1t Is Said That Some One Dies With 1t
Every Day. A Horrible Death.

The smallpox situation continues to
give DR.. Harris, secretary of the state
board of health, great uneasiness, says
an Atlanta dispatch. Few people in
the state realize the extent to which
the disease has spread. Nearly every
county in middle and southern Georgia
has been afflicted, he is quoted as say
ing. DR.. Harris says the disease is
not of such mild type as is generally
supposed, and he is OF the opinion that
the deaths from the malady in the
state will average one every day.
81 have performed autopsies on per-
sons who have died OF almost every
kind OF disease" said DR.. Harris,
"even the leprOsy, and there is moth
ing that | have ever seen that is as
horrible as death from smallpox. 1t
is too shocking 10 mention, and far too
shocking for publication, II the peo-
pie could know smallpox as the doctors
know it they would fly TO vaccination
for refuge and protection.
1t is strange that in an intelligent
state like Georgia there should be OPP.

STOOD IN HOLE THREE DAYS
Mrs. GOodsOn's Fight to Prevent
Setting of a Trolley Pole.

Marian Goodson of South Norwalk,
Conn, weighing over 200 pounds, was
carried into her home Monday after.
noon sick and faintlng, after having
stood for three successive days in a
hole where the Connecticut Railroad
and Lighting Company wanted to set
q trolley pole. The first day she put a
carpet on the ground and lay on the
spot where the trolley men wanted to
put the pole. They had to use force
to move her, and then when the hole
was dug Mrs. Goodson jumped into it.
The men dug around Der feet, but she
would not leave.
The trolley hands secured wheel
barrow load of hot ashes aud dumped
them on Mrs. Goodson, hoping to drive
her out. But Mrs. Goodson held the
fort for three whole days in spite of
the entire force of the trolley company
and the cold and rain.
She then collapsed utterly from the
strain and exposure as she stood in
the hole and had TO be carried to her
home.
