NO TERRoRs IN "13" FOR HIM.
Soldier Who Had Been Up Against
the Whole Combination
ScOffed Mt 1t.

Thirteen army recruits filed into the
United States recruiting station in
Smithfield street one morning recently,
News had arrived that two regiments
would be sent to guard Americas new
ward in Panama, and the rockies were
anxious for the winter trip to the trop-
les, says Pittsburg report. One by one
they ''solemnly swore" to protect the
United States in peace and war, to obey
their superiors," and fulfill all the ex-
ercises of the national arms. They were
promising soldiers.
The twelfth man had taken the oath
and was instructed to report at the mill
tary post at Columbus, Ohio. The thir-
tenth recruit hesitated. He was George
Y. Wilson. and had superstitions regard
ing the fatal number.
= mo, sir, won't be sworn" he de-
clared. "Why, I'd get shot the very first
skirmish. None O. your IL business in
mine l know fellow who enlisted
thirteenth in his company in the Span
ish war, and he was put in the guard
house the same night. He was shot
shortly afterward. No, sir, I'm not buck
ing any hoodoo like that, but I'll go four
teenth in a jiffy.'
y No extra applicant was at hand, and
the would-be fighter went back to his
job. James E. Power, an old regular
army veteran, listened to the rockies
expostulations with loud ha-has.
ooh, fudge!" he exclaimed. "Why,
it's part of fellows nerve to buck the
hoodoo. l was born on the 18th of Au-
gust and enlisted on the 18th of May in
the Thirteenth battery of the heavy ar
tillery after walking 10 miles to the re-
cruiting Office in Thirteenth street, New
York. I travelled 1900 miles to Kansas.
and was the thirteenth man to board the
train. At Des Moines, Iowa, we collided
with cattle train and killed IL steers.
After 10 hours delay We got started, and
I was the thirteenth man assigned to my
company.
1.-THE thirteenth man in battle is the
safest one in the field. He can't get hit
unless IL shots are coming at him at the
same moment. Besides, he always
wears rabbits foot for luck, Bible
over his heart, and his canteen around
his stomach. A bullet directed at him
either strikes piece of metal or pack
of cards, and the hoodoo is worthless.
Its the lucky-born namby pambys who
tell Of hard luck in the army"

VISIT TO L0URDES
Annual Pilgrimage to This Little
Village IN Southern France.
Holy Spring Which Religious Ferv0R
Credits with Many Miraculous
Cures-DevOut InvolidS
Flock ThitheT.

In this twentieth century we are apt
to smile at the representations which
religious fervor may produce and fos-
ter. 1t seems almost incredible that
there are thousands and thousands OF
poor invalids who believe that the wa
ter from a certain holy spring will cure
them of their complaints. There is
something poetic and medieval about
such unquestioning fai1h. The annual
pilgrimage to Lourdes is a case in
point. Lourdes, in the Hautes Pyre-
nees, il the south of France, which was
once little unknown village, has now
a European reputation, having gained
it solely through the numbers of pill
grims who visit the place annually.
This town, which is beautifully situ-
ated in valley opening towards snow
clad mountains, IL miles southwest of
Tarbes. dates it's prosperity from the
year 1858. In that year young peas

dimples and dancing eyes. She had
leased him royalty that night and he
had gone away a little sullen at the
last-the foolish boy-to be gone a
month. PourQuoi? He was captain of
coal barge. Neither Of them had sus-
pected when they parted that he would
be gone so long-his sailing orders
had come week ahead.
Dame! Marie felt little bad about
it when she heard. If she had only
been kinder-next time he came

ashes she heard the news: 1.-THE Lily,
Donician's charcoal barge-and the
blacklist thing on the river-had re-

Maries one consciousness became an
aching dread. Suppose he should not
wait for Sunday-should come to the
house while she was sacking coal and
see her all dirty. And the teacher
would be there.
She rushed that sacking feverishly,

sacks to be filled and at the sound Of
horses hoofbeats she looked through
the soft black haze to see Donician's
roam mare rounding the corner He
had on a new straw hat and sat very
straight in the saddle. Her father saw
him also.

Madam was too excited over her prep

think of poor Marie down to the kiln.
Almost regretfully the girl tied up

smile for her fathers hearty "Bien."

WHEN CONVERSATION CEASED.
Woman with the FOghOrn Voice
stopped Asking Questions of
the Butchers Boy.

! The butchers boy was such bright
little chap that the fourth-fioor woman
engaged him in conversation while writ
ing out her order, relates the New York
| Times.
"You have all the trade of this house,
haven't you?" she asked.
"Yes'm."
"And do you call for all the orders,
the same as here?"
"Yes'm."
"And suppose you go to other build
ings, too?'
'Yes'm; lots of EN-"
The woman looked at him admiring-

Donician was on the front gallery.

reach her goal she must pass before

THE GERMAN PEOPLE.
This Writer Says They Are Not Lying
Awake Nights to Hate
Americans.

The people of the United States are
prone to accept every cock and bull
story that sensation mongers circulate
about Germany. We must acknowl-
edge that the kaiser has sadly misun-
derstood us in the past, that his peo-
pie have been inclined to envy our
commercial supremacy, but that EN-
peror William and his advisers are
strengthening the German army and
charging the German navy with the
idea of eventually going to war with
the United States we must seriously
doubt, says writer in the Albany Press
Knickerbocker.
During the past spring the writer
spent several weeks in Germany. From
the time he landed at Cuxhafen until
he sped toward the south of Europe
he never heard a word or viewed an
act which might lead him TO infer that
there was any serious prejudice
against Americans. In Hamburg, in
Berlin, in Potsdam, in the Black For
est district, in Gleason, in Frankfort,
in Wiesbaden, and down the Rhine to
Cologne, the writer never heard any
remark that aroused suspicion that
the kaiser was preparing to turn his
guns on the statue of Liberty in New
York harbor. The statesmen of Ger
many are not all agrarians, and the
agrarians are the people who may
have an idea that the United States is
a dangerous commercial rival. Prince
Henry's visit to the United States had
an excellent effect upon the masses of
Germany, To-day, if an American sits
down with an intelligent resident OF
Hamburg or Berlin, the latter is likely
to refer in glowing terms to Americas
hospitable treatment of Germany's
most popular member of the royal
house.
The Germans may not be disposed to
accept the Monroe doctrine at the
present time, they may even endeavor
to secure the pick of the trade in
South America, but they are not i'm
patiently awaiting the time when them
can lock horns with the United States.
We predict that in the years to come
Germany and the United States will
be fast friends, who will mutually en-
gage in noble undertakings, which
must make the world better world for
all classes.
Here's to Germany-our friend and fu-
ture ally.

New Refining Process.

A method Of treating gold ores after
crushing or concentration is called the
chlorobromuration process. and claims
to be rival of the cyanide treatment,
particularly for ores carrying aurifer-

of the process claim high percentage
of extraction, in which, as well as the
matter of low working costs, they
claim superiority over the cyanide

Japanese Oysters.

Japan has some of the best oysters
in the world. One, growing in the bays,
is rarely larger than finger nail, and
it's flavor is delicious. 1t suggests the
California oyster. The second form
averages the size of blue Point" 1t
is cream colored 1t occurs abundantly
throughout the Inland sea. The third
form is immense, specimens weighing
four to five pounds being frequent. 1t
rarely occurs in water less than two
fathoms deep, and is most abundant in
about ten fathoms. The oyster produce
ing region of Japan is the Inland sea,
and the culturists here worked out fine
scientific method of propagation. This
body of water is one of the most impor-
tant natural preserves of fish and shell
fish in the world.
