Mobile, Ala, Oct. 23.-The NAL
lOry liner Colorado, which has arriv-
ed at port, having as passengers Jo-
seph Nelson, Charles Olsen, Charles
Anderson and Otto Brink, who were
picked up at sea Saturday morning
by the vessel 80 miles off Key West.
The men were found standing on
raft made out of six logs, and were
in the water waist deep at the time.
Nelson said that he and the other
men were on houseboat at Long
Key when the hurricane struck them
and blew the boat to sea. 1t soon
went to pieces and out of the 1875
people on board, 70 were drowned
right before his eyes. The other AZ
have since been taken into Jackson
vile, Fla.
The men say that the loss of life
was heavier off Long Key than any
other point.
The men were employed on the ex-
tension work of the Florida East
Coast railway.

Why the New Maple Leaves Fall

Editor of The Phanix:-
There has been considerable specula ton
as to the cause of the early falling Of
the maple leaves from their branches this
season. Last year Terrace street was
strewn with fresh leaves from the beau
tiful naples there and no one seemed to
be able to suggest a remedy The leaves
curled up, and though there was no evil
dence Of worms, some attributed the cause
to the beetle, others to borers, while there
were several other theories all of which
seemed plausible enough. We applied
different remedies but to no perceptible
effect Finally / wrote TO several com
missions on forestry and all reported the
same conclusion, after examining speci-
mems Of the fallen leaves. They reported
that the trouble seemed to be accustomed
by too little moisture at the roots of the
trees. After this we began a systematic
spraying Of the trunks with water from a
hose and the result was at once notice.
able and encouraging. This season we
began the spraying almost as soon as the
leaves had formed and so far there has
been no evidence of falling leaves from
our naples!

GOOD STORY TOLD BY IRVING.
How Spirited Witness Turned Laugh
On Harsh LAWYER,

Sir Henry Irving was once the
guest of honor at a lawyers banquet
in New York. In the course of
graceful address he said:
you, gentlemen, have given me
most helpful advice on the art of act
ing-will you permit me to give you
in return piece of advice regarding
your profession?
my advice, then, is that you make
your cross-eXamination less rigorous,
less harsh. What is the good of
treating an honest and sensitive wit
ness in the witness stand as though
he were a sneak thief?
81 confess that l am not in SYM
pathy with harshness in cross-exam-
nation, and whenever hear of wit
ness turning on an overbearing law
yer, my heart rejoices.
MY heart rejoiced last week. A
young man in my company was wit
ness in case of robbery. He had
seen a thief snatch a young girls
pocketbook and make off.
We'll, the thief's lawyer cross-ex-
| amined my young friend shamefully.
He roared at him, shook his fist at
him, raved at him.
And at what hour did all this
happen?" the lawyer, sneering, asked
toward the end of his examination.
"T think my friend began, but
he was at once interrupted.
eve don't care anything here
about what you think" said the law
yer, with a snort of contempt.
Don't you want to hear what
Think" said my young friend mildly
Certainly not the lawyer roared
"'Tben,' said my friend, 4 may as
well step down from the box. In
not lawyer. can't talk withou
thinking"

A Fable OF the Day.

One day the ASS went to the Lion
and said:
You have ruled long time and
should be willing to abdicate. l may
say further that you should step down
and out in my favor"
But will the beasts of the forest
accept your" asked the Lion.
81 am sure they will. | have just
been walking about for an hour and
many of them took me for YOU"
TRY it again and If they appear to
see no difference l promise you shall
have my place"
The Ass went forth, and, being de-
termined to work the old thing for
all it was worth, he stoppe' in his
journey now and then to a,ter a
bray. He had not yet mad a mile
when the buffalo stopped him and
said:
an the semi-darkness took you for
the Lion and made obeisance, but as
soon as you opened your mouth
knew you to be an Ass instead. Get
off the earth or you'll feel a JAR"
Moral-When mans fellow men
are not sure of him they wait for the
bray.

GOT MUSIC THAT HE ENJOYED.
Farmer Called for Popular Airs, and
Leader ObeYed.

Uncle Joe Rich of Guildhall, VT,
was character. He was well-to-do
farmer, and kept open house to his
friends. Rotund and jovial, and dress
ed in his Sunday suit, blue swallow
tail coat with brass buttons, buff vest
and black silk hat, he was noticeable
figure. He attended all the dances,
could cut pigeon wing to beat the
band" and was a great favorite with
the boys.
One fall after the crops were stored
they invited him to take weeks trip
to Boston to see the sights with them.
One night after supper, which was
washed down with a liberal supply
Of champagne, Uncle Joe" was taken
to the theatre, the party occupying
box
The old man was at his best. AS
he sat down and looked the audience
over the orchestra struck up an oper-
attic selection. He wanted to know
what kind of a cussed tune" that
was, anyway. This selection was fol-
lowed by another. He wiped his
beaming face and bald head with a
red silk bandanna which he pulled out
of his silk tile, and walked around I'M
easeily.
Finally he could stand 1t no longer.
Leaning over the box, he shouted,
waving his hat: Say, Mr.. Fiddlers,
if you've got those fiddles tuned give
us Fishers Hornpipe' or Devils
Dream" This brought down the
house, and the band struck up the
music the old man wanted.

DETAILS OF NAP CALLED FOR.
Unexplained Points About Syracuse
Woman's Iona Sleep.


A Syracuse woman is said to have
Just awakened from a sleep of ten
months. OF course, there Is nothing
about Syracuse that would have a
tendency to keep anybody awake, and
yet this long nap deservedly arouses
our curiosity. Did the lady dream,
and, If so, what about? Was 1t con-
tinuous dream, or did it break off into
weekly or fortnightly sections? What
did her husband do about it? Did he
call Jane every morning to break
fast and when she failed to appear
did he go to the breakfast table and
indulge in the extra cup of coffee
that Jane never permitted him to
drink? Did he come upstairs on tip
was in session, or an inventory de-
manded his attendance at the office
until 2 a. m. or more? And then did
he boldly clatter up the stairs in the
most brazen and inexcusable man.
ner when he found that his wife
slumbered serenely on?
And what did the lady say when she
awoke and found out about 1t. Did she
reproach her husband for letting her
oversleep herself? Did she notice the
fact that the house sorely needed
cleaning and did she call up the
kitchen maid and tell her to walk?
And all the time she talked did she
hunt for the hairpins that had fallen
out of her hair?
Yes, indeed, 1t would be interesting
to know all about this singular awak-
ening, and the Syracuse scribes seem
painfully slow in giving out the sleepy
| details.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Variety in Government Reports.

1t is of the utmost Importance that

parsons are worthless. The crop es-
innate issued by the agricultural de-
partment on Monday is case in point.
Formerly estimates were made OF

recently estimates were based on
