CAUGHT By THE CRY.

The Way nm Australian Bandit Was
Trapped In London.
"COo-e-e" is the curious cry that was
one of the signals Of the native blacks
Of Australia. The cry was speedily
adopted by the invading whites The
final 'e' is very high note, sort of
prolonged screech that resounds for
long distances through the bush AMI
thus enables separated persons to as
certain their relative positions. On one
notable occasion this peculiar cry was
heard in London. A daring bushranger
made his appearance one morning In
front of bank in Ballarat and coolly
posted a notice on the door to the eff
feet that the place would be closed for
an hour.
Entering, he terrorized the officials
with his revolver and got clear away
with $4,000. Some time afterward
the authorities received information
that the man had been seen in London.
One day a detective thought he espied
his man in the Strand; but, not being
quite sure. he hit upon an expedient
He uttered a piercing "Coo-e-e."
Passersby stood fixed in astonish
ment, but the Australian, acting on the
spur of the moment and recognizing
the familiar sound, FASTENED to the per
son who uttered 1t. He was promptly
arrested and was taken back to Aus
tralia.-ChicagO News.

A Blacksmith Wood Carver.

John McClellen of Mount Airy, Nd.
h not only fine blacksmith, but he
has shown himself to be an expert
wood carver. With the long quiet
evenings before him he conceived the
idea Of whiting a seven foot black
walnut log with penknife. -Four
years he spent at the amusement Of
ten getting up at O'Clock in the morn
Ing to take his sharp knife and white
at the log. He put a little time at
meals and in the evening. Recently he
went to Hagerstown and brought the
result along in a glass case, and it is
now on exhibition there. It Is the run
ming gear of a farm wagon complete
in every detail, together with a chain
and other fixings. It is perfect in ev-
cry. way. not a pin missing, not part
wanting and all in one piece, nothing
added or pieced on in any way. It is
a wonderful bit of patience and skill.
Mr.. McClellen used up over $25 worth
Of penknives at it and once bought 4
five dollar one with tempered blades
and found it snapped up as easily as
the others.-Blacksmith and Wheel

nothing wrong with the telephone or
electric light wires. You see, madam,
that you are not acclimated in Denver.
The air here is extremely dry and IL
therefore surcharged with electricity,
so that you in touching iron feel
slight shock, and also slight shock
when you walk across the carpet and
then touch anything with your hand
or shake hands with anybody. You'll
get over it in a few days."
The woman went away mystified,
but satisfied, and Mr.. Maher said:
'"That's a common complaint in ev.
cry hotel in town. Those Of US who
live here will now and then feel an
electric shock by touching a conductor
or when walking over a carpet IL we
touch our faces or shake hands, but
we are not as subjective to electrical
influences as those who come from sea
level or from places where the air Is
moist. These people, of course, are
shocked easily, and as it is a new ex-
perience for them they invariably be-
lieve that the telephone or electric
light wires are crossed and that they
are in danger Of electrocution.
I'VE had a woman in the hotel last
week who was startled because when
she began to comb the hair Of her
French poodle electric currents ran up
her arms. She thought that somebody
had been playing joke on her dog,
and she was furious until I explained
to her the cause."-Denver Republican.

NOBILITY OF TREES.
4 1ribute to the Majesty of tn
Mighty Oak.

A 1ribute to the Majesty of the
Mighty Oak.
Directly in my path stood an ancient
swamp white oak, the greatest tree,
think, that have ever seen. 1t was not
the highest nor the largest round, per-
haps, but individually, spiritually, the
greatest. Hoary, hollow and broken
limbed, his huge bole seemed encircled
with the centuries, and in this green
and grizzled top oil the winds Of heav-
en- had some time come.
One could worship in the presence Of
such tree as easily as in the shadow
of a vast cathedral. Indeed, what is
there built with hands that has the dig
nifty, the majesty, the dignity, of life?
And what life was here! Life whose
beginnings lay so far back that could
no more reckon the years than could
count the atoms it had builded into this
majestic form.
Looking down upon him from twice
his height doomed tulip poplar, clean
boiled for thirty feet and in the top all
green and gold with blossoms. 1t was
a resplendent thing beside the oak, yet
how Enthusiastically the gnarled old mon
arch wore the crown! His girth more
than balanced the poplar's great height
and, as for blossoms, nature knows the
beauty of strength and inward majesty
and has pinned no boutonniere upor
the oak.-Dallas Lore Sharp In Nation

into the blaze Of fame, and then the
world wakes up and wonders how it
has all happened. There is no such
thing as luck in any world over which
God presides. What, then, Is the Sc
cret? 1t is purpose. The great victo-
ries which men praise are always won
first Of all in a mans own soul. The
great men who stamp themselves in
effaceably on the ages are always the
men who are capable Of conceiving a
purpose clearly and Of following 1t
courageously through evil and good re-
port. You may sweep aside as rela-
lively trivial all questions Of the range
Of their gifts, the scope of their intel
lectual life. The great thing which
you have to reckon with is the i'm.

Whist was first called triumph. a
name which was afterward corrupted
into trump The eighteenth century
saw whist in its primitive form, the
whole object of the game being to win
tricks by leading high cards or by
trumping Then came the era of Hoyle,
which may be said to have lasted from
1870 to 1860 and taught players to
think not only of their own hands, but
Of the other hands also, and to take
advantage of the positions of the cards
In them. Hoyle also taught that
trumps might be more protitably en-
ployed than in simple trumping and
showed that they might be used to dis
arm the adversary and to obtain sec
ondary advantage in trick making by
other suits Of less apparent power Il

forms of literature to which the recip-

what was cooked for him SO long as it
contained none of the ingredients of
tripe and none Of the essence Of toma-
to. But he was asked to contribute a
paper, which she would have repro
duced in facsimile, stating what he
could prepare most to his liking upon
a kitchen range or in chatting dish,
with his manner of procedure. This
quite nonplused him until he bethought
himself Of one particular and peculiar
