just popped UP out of the ground
near the village of Suciatan on the Isl

of regulars recovered from their sur
prise the captain and one of the pri-
Yates had been killed, and the second
private severely wounded, and Bal!ou
was left alone to make the best fight
he could. The records show that he
made a good one.
Ballou stood his ground, his faithful
"Krag" all the time peppering an an

attacking insurgents. The fight was
ten against one, but so deadly was Bal

retreated. When reinforcements ar
rived they found Ballou, still on guard,

night, a youthful employe tossed a
lighted cigarette aside and 1t fell into
pile of oiled waste. Fire started
almost instantly and spread rapidly.
While workmen were trying to ex-

scattered throughout the entire sec

ADVENTURES OF A FINN.

Truth continues to be stranger, as
well as rarer. than fiction. The inge-
nuity OF the romantic novelist or the
stage melo-dramatst cannot equal the
thrill and circumstance of real life. We
expect some time to see the adven-
lures Of Matti Hjalmari Reinikka or
the stage, and if they get there they
will help TO advertise the struggles
of Il brave people to be free.
Relnikka is a youth who lately lived
in the village of Kurikka. Finland.
He took part with otl:er youths in re-
sisting the Russian conscription, this
CONSUMPTION being contrary TO the COW
enant Of Russia with his country. He
was arrested and released; and now,
his revolutionary blood being up, he
went to Helsingfors, the capital of the
country, with the intention OF killing
the Russian Procurator General, NJ.
Johnson, n recreant Finn-a very rep
rehensible design, inexcusable even in
an oppressed people. Not knowing the
man by sight. he went TO his office on
some pretext TO get look at him. and
there fell under the suspicion of a de-
tective, who arrested him. Matti re-
fused TO give any account OF himself.
Finding himself in prison and likely
to stay there. lie had n happy thought.
He told the chief that he had not
deemed it well TO tel: his name and his
errand at the Procurator's TO n subor-
dinate. but that his real object was to
give warning that peasant from the
parish of Kurikka, named Matti Rein
ikka, had come TO Helsingfors TO Kill
him. The chief made inquiries and
found that man of that name had
disappeared from the village. No
longer suspicious. the police head got
Matti to join him in the search for ;his
man. and for two days Reinikka went
around Helsingfors with the police,
solemnly searching for himself
At the end of the second day the
police took him to the circus 20 see IL

just steaming out into the country.
OF course the police were at once
after him by wire, but before the next
station was reached Matti leaped off
the train as il slowed down in a rail
road yard; but in attempting TO get
away from train approaching on an
other track, he slipped and fell under
the wheels, and had his right arm
crushed. He was picked up and once
more arrested. In hospital his arm
was amputated, but rs he was recover

escaped in the darkness. He fled TO

left hand, returned to Finland, and on

error of Viborg, NJ. Miasoy through
the shoulder and back. Needless to
say, he did not help his cause by this
crime.
Mattl was arrested and his victim

a Great Army.

1t is planned by the officials Of the
war department TO put the army oil
the United States on a war footing OF
100000 men. A scheme with this end
in view will be submitted to congress
at it's next session. 1t has been un-
der consideration for several weeks
by officers OF the department, and
they now have the plan in tangible
form.
The regular army now consists oil
5000 men, but IL can be expanded
to 100000 by filling up the compa-
MES of the regiments to their maxi
mum strength. The new plan con-
templates the creation Of regular
reserve" of 10000 men, which would
consist of the able-bodied discharged
soldiers, whose names would be placed
on file in the war department and who
could be pressed into service at q
moments notice. They would be paia
SO per month for keeping in touch
with the department
The new plan includes the creation
of a national reserve Of 100000 mon,
whose addresses would be filed with
the department. They would be paid
So per year Then the national
guard would bring the fighting
strength of the army up TO 250,00U
men.

This Saturdays record presents
quite a contrast when compared with
that of a week ago, when 105 cases
were reported. 1t has never reached
that figure since and 1t is believed
now that the record will stand. The
deaths continue few, which indicates
that the patients under treatment arc
recovering more generally than hereto
fore.

Remarkable Explosion.

A recent fatality at the Ludington
mine at Iron Moutain was one of the
most remarkable chronicled in the
Lake Superior mining region. Three
men were working at the bottom OF
the new shaft, which is about 1000
feet deep. A crew OF miners had just
finished drilling nine holes and filing
them with dynamite. The three-An-
ton Erickson, William Anderson and
Charles Anderson--were connecting
the leading wire TO the charges Of
dynamite, preparatory TO exploding,
when lightning struck the shaft house,
ran 1000 feet down the steel cable
attached to the skip. which was rest
ing at the bottom, and exploded the
charges Erickson was instantly killed
and his companions severely hurt.

were in the balloon over most thickly

was leaking badly, and their combined
weight was dragging it down, slowly

only way to save the woman would be
for him to cut loose in his parachute.

RADIO with 100 burros, four saddle
horses and twenty-five Mexican burro
drivers TO distribute them among four
engineer corps locating railroad lines
for that company through Wild
mountainous country. After reaching
the head waters Of the San Juan River

narrow trails, where we had TO march
single file, crossing and recrossing the
stream, and occasionally following its
bed until we came TO q narrow canon
with perpendicular walls of rock about
4 thousand feet high on each side.
From there our trail led up q steep
mountain side, covered with juniper
shrubs and an occasional stunted juni-

trunk nearly n foot in diameter and q
dense round top, looking somewhat like
q Chinese umbrella tree. stood on the

was as dry as finder. When near the

suddenly exploded. suffering flames

reared and turned several somersaults
down the mountain side, its descent
being arrested by another juniper bush
at the edge of the precipice, where it
regained its feet, while the frightened
burros rushed pellmell for the river.
