FOURTEEN MISTAKES OF LIFE.
Are You Making Any Of Them in
Your Life?

Some thoughtful person has con.
densed the important mistakes of life
and decides that there are just ii OF
them. Most people believe there Is
no limit to the mistakes of life; that
they are like drops in the ocean or
the sands of the seashore, in number.
But here are the IA great mistakes:
1t is a great mistake to set up our
own standard of right and wrong, and
judge people accordingly.
To measure the enjoyment of others
by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion in
the world
To look for judgment and expert,
ence in youth
To endeavor to mold all dispositions
alike
To yield to immaterial trifes
To look for perfection in our own
actions.
To worry ourselves and others with
what cann2t be remedied,
Not to alle"iate all that needs allie.
Walton so far as lies in our power
Not to make allowances for the in
frmities of others
To consider everything impossible
that we cannot perform.
10 believe only what our finite
minds can grasp.
To expect to be able to understand
everything
To believe the Almighty made one
almost perfect individual and that
you are that one.

that not being able to see the bear

kill his game in the morning. The
fire crept up the tree to a
large limb directly over where Fritz

was lodging. During the night the
limb burned in two and the bear fell
on Fritz, cruising out his life. His
body was found this morning with
the burned limb by his side.

last Saturday in the murder of Herr
Bush, a rich German manufacturer
and the leader of the Germany colony

year and half.

ROYALTY FLEE
FOR THE|RL|v
GRAND DUKES PANIC-STRICKEN
BY SUDDEN DEATH OF
TREPOFF.
Fear Of Assassination Is Everywhere;
New Attempts of Terrorists, Who
Claim They Killed Trepoff.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 1S.-The
Grand Dukes are in panic. The
death of General Trepoff, which is
now generally believed to have been
due to poison, has put the entire
royal family in such state of alarm
that the members of it are literally
falling over each other getting out
of this city. The Grand Dukes left
at midnight last night for the west
and more are preparing to go. Nest
of them will Sc tile down in Paris for
a time at least
Nor is the panic confined by any
means to the royal family. Dozens
of the reactionary clique in the pal
ace at Peteroff are packing up for
trips abroad. They are evidently pre-
pared for a long exile, as they are
putting their estates in the hands of
permanent agents and are sending
their valuables ahead of them.
The feeling of terror was added
to when revolutionists tried in War
saw to assassinate General Dorsxs-
wski, president Of the courtmartial
board. There was but one shot fred,
but the bullet struck the general in
the thigh. His wound is serious
but not necessarily fatal. The would
be assassin escaped.
Trepoff was recognized as the
strong man Of Russia and even his
enemies respected his courage and
iron will. Now that he Is gone there
seems to be no one In the empire 70
All his place. There is a consequent
feeling Of helplessness on the part
Of the court clique.
The Terrorists are declaring that
they Will be ready in few days
to start new series of assassinations
and that some of the most prominent
men of the empire will be among the
first victims. They are boasting,
too. of the way in which Trepoff was
disposed of. They ridicule the
statement of the attending physicians
that the General died a natural
death.

would have won his game handily.
