they got the cayenne pepper out of him,

the afternoon. but for awhile he had

in the ring mad as wet hens. cause they
stick daggers in them, and they bel
low around, and the Spaniards Dodge
ald shake red rags at them, and after
a bull has ripped mess of bowels out
OF few horses, then a man with sabre
stabs the bull between the shoulders,
and he drops dead, and the crowd cheers
the assassin of the bull, and they bring
in another bull.
Well, sir, dad came mighty near his
finish at the bull-fght. When the
second bull came in, and ripped the
stomach out of a blind horse and the
bull was just charging man who was
to stab it. dad couldn't stand it any
longer. and he climbed right over into
the ring. and he said: Look ahere, you

American Humane Society. against this
cruelty to animals. and unless this bust
ness stops right here, will have this
place pulled, and"
Well. sir. you would of thought that
bull would have had sense enough to
see that dad was his friend, but he
probably couldn't understand what dad
was driving at, for he made rush for
dad, and dad started to run for the
fence. and the bull caught dad just like
dad was sitting in rocking chair. ard

pants stayed on the bulls horns, ard
dad landed In amongst lot of male

police wrapped blanket around dads

emergency hospital, but claimed dad,
and took him to the hotel. Yours,

To eat less rather than more would

FESTIVAL IN ReDwooDo.
Californians Hold High Revel Among
the Giants of ths Pacific
Forests.

In the Country Calendar, w. II. IT.
win writes as follows:
Every August on the Saturday night
nearest full moon, the Bohemian club
of San Francisco packs up ana travels
to its own grove in the California
woods, to hold a festival unique in
this country, and, indeed, in the world
the 'nlidsummer High links they
call 1t. In brief, II consists of big
spectacle, with all accessories of poetry
and music, in praise OF the forest.
I'm all the west there is no grove
more beautiful. The only other which
may he fairly compared to it is the B
Basin Of Santa Cruz mountains, lately
forest reserve.
"You come to 1t suddenly. One step
and its glory is over you. ihere is no
perspective. You cannot get far enough

shadow streaming from the heavens,

Against the range Of hills the val
ley cleft comes to sudden stop. There
Is an opening in the trees at this point.
1t runs up the hillside in the form of
an inverted W This rises from TIE
valley floor, between two big trunks
matched in size, and 1t ends some IS
yards up the slope in triple giant,
three tress in one. Smaller re woods
fringe this area; a trail runs Irregular

club comes in August. bringing it's

bers who can possibly get away from
the city for so long time camp out
there through fortnight of fishing,
swimming, long tramps across the
hills, campfire story telling. 1t all
closes with the links. over which
author, actor, composer and supes have
toiled for three months.
"Once, this performance was COM
paratively simple. Now. 1t Is usually
a drama-or rather. perhaps. masque
written in verse by one Of the club
poets and set to orchestral music.
Two conventionalities govern 1.-THE
enactors must be woodland folk: the
theme must turn on the restoration of
good fellowship through the death Of
Care.
Great nights they are. those of the
links. No one pretends to go to bed.
After the burning of the statue Of
Care, everybody goes first to supper
and hears much untrammeled western
oratory. Then. in side canyon or
about the camp fire, the club come

a burlesque on the High. And around
the campfire members and guests keep
going all night, and finish OF dawn

CITIES UTILIZE WASTE.
European Municipalities Make Con-
siderable Financial Gain
from Refuse.

New York Is just now wondering what
1t will do when the existing contract ex-
pires for the disposition of the 5000 tons
of waste material which the department
of street cleaning collects daily. 1t pays
private corporation 1920 a year to
dispose of this waste. while in 200 towns
and cities In Great Britain waste prod
ucts are not only disposed of without
cost. but utilized in such way as to
produce handsome profit.
DR.. ]. c. Bayliss. of London, who has
recently investigated this subject, shows
that Is boroughs of the city Of London,
with a population nearly as large as
that Of New York, consume all their
refuse and generate power by this
means. Dozens Of towns find this source
OF power ample to do all their public
lighting; some of them also pump their
sewage by the same means. Figures for
London, which would certainly apply
to New York, show that a horse power
hour is developed for each 20 pounds of
refuse consumed. In New York this
would mean 10000 kilowatt hours OF
electric power available for lighting. At
present approximately 10000 kilowatt
hours are necessary for lighting pur-
poses in New York city, and the power
available is, therefore, three times the
amount needed. But instead of using
this power or the means for generating
1t. we pay a private corporation nearly
100000 for burning it up and dumping
1t into the sea.
No one would admit that American
engineers are not competent to devise
plants that would accomplish profitable
utilization of the waste products Of our
cities, and yet we go OF year after year
throwing away the millions that this
refuse would bring IN to the Golfers OF
our municipalities ii they would take the
trouble to find out how 1t could be adj
vantageously utilized.
To take another instance of municipal
economy; Berlin owns seven farms, with
an aggregate acreage Of 32,740. Original
ly these farms wers rather unproductive
on account of the nature of the soil, but
by discharging liquid sewage upon them
they were made so fertile that In 1904,
after all expenses of administration and
maintenance wers paid, there was net
surplus Of $91,755 to be turned into the
city treasury. Il is not with the pur-
pose of advocating municipal ownership
of farms or anything else that this article
Is written, blu. the Berlin city farms
show what municipality may do when
1t goes into business on business princi-
pies.
