to Chicago.

CHICAGO, July Am. +. Hanny OF
Pekin, ILL.,, came to town handcuffed
to his bride, 1t was a honeymoon
joke, the humor of whicl failed to ap-
peal to him. Mr. Hanny was married
In Pekin. 81 can stand for the rice
and the old Shoes" he said, "but this
is over the limit"
Just as the train pulled out Of Pc
kin party Of practical jokers entered
the car, slipped a pair Of handouts on
the bride and groom as they sat In
their stateroom. Hanny's left wrist
was clasped with band of steel to his
BRIDES right. They were compelled
to sit up all night in the stateroom.
Every man on the train with small
keys tried to give Cupid chance, but
the little god was in bad luck. The
bracelets could not be relieved. When
they reached here they were driven to
the Central Police Station. There,
after fifteen minutes work, a detec-
tive released them.
"The least can do is to buy for
all" said the bridegroom, as he gazed
at the red welt around his wrist. He
gave q $5 bill to the man who united
him while the bride blushed her
thanks.

The Mythical Boy.

Once upon a time a prominent
attorney was driving through the
country, and, seeing a small boy hoe
ing corn near the road, concluded to
stop and chat with him. Hello,
buddie," said the lawyer. "Howdy
do SIR" responded the urchin, with
out stopping work, or even looking up.
To begin the conversation the attorney
said in a friendly tone: We'll, my
boy, | see you are hoeing out your
corn" "Oh, no, sir, I'm hoeing out
the weeds and leaving the corn.
Little boy, your corn is quiet yellow,
isn't it?" "Yes, sir, we planted
yellow corn." "You are not going TO
make more than half crop, are your"
"No, sir, we don't want only half
crop; we're tending 1t on the shares. I"
BY this time the lawyer had lost
pleasantness, and said: ''There isn't
much difference between you and a
fool, is there?" "Not much; Just the
fence" replied the boy, and the
talented attorney soon vanished down
the lane.

L. L. White, hardware dealer, Of

Henry White, who has been missing
from his home for four years.
Mr.. White read In the Tennessee

wreck at Oberlin, Kansas, and saw
among the names Of the dead a Harry
White, address unknown, whose de-
scrIption answered exactly to that OF
his lost brother, and after correspond
ing found that the body had been
shipped to this city.
Supposing that the railroad had
shipped the corpse here to be buried
among the unidentified dead, he inn
mediately secured Identification pa
pers and came to this city.
Mr.. White was very much relieved
to find that it was not his brother,
and left for bis home in Tennessee at

GREAT POTATO DISCOVERY
Cook Claims He Can Grow $4,000
Bushels to Acre Every
Sixty Days.

DENVER, July 13.-A resident of
Glen Falls has either made one of the
greatest discoveries OF the age in agrl
culture or he is one OF the greatest
takers OF the time.
W. d. Darst, a cook, declares that
he has perfected a process by which an
indefinite quantity of potatoes may be
forced to grow on any tract of ground
at a cost not to exceed So per ton. He
asserts that he can easily raise 10000
bushels Of potatoes to the acre every
sixty days, and that he is satisfied
that a much greater yield can be Sc.
cured.
His design is to raise potatoes en-.
tirely under ground, without permit
ting any sprout or vine to appear
about the surface He says he has
caused potatoes to grow in this way
with layers to depth of fifteen feet,
In which depth there would be enough
layers to produce 10000 bushels of DO.
tatoes to the acre, and he declares
there is no reason why they should
not be planted to a much greater
depth, with corresponding increase
In the yield per acre.

Will 1t Rain?

The coming state Of the weather can
be foretold by various signs with a
surprising amount of accuracy. The
following rules are laid down by an
expert:
bees work with redoubled energy
just before rain.
"If the flies are unusually persist
ent, either in the house or around cat
tie, there is rain in the air.
Squirrels store large supply of
nuts, the husks of corn are unusually
thick, and the buds Of certain trees
have a firmer protecting coat If a Sc
we're winter is at hand.
"If the polars and aspen leaves turn
up the under side, rain will soon fol-
low.
LAST, but not least, persons who
suffer from rheumatism can always
tell by their feelings when storm is
approaching, and in this method of
prophesying many folk of to-day are
as firm believers as were our forefath-
