The life-and-death battle of the for
mer football player was witnessed by
a score of men in the department, who
looked on with horror, expecting to see
him Instantly killed. To the great
presence of mind and proves of Cav
anagh is attributed his escape.
Mr.. Cavanagh is foreman in the
foundry. Changes in the belt on the
main shaft, which carries the entire
machinery of the plant, were neces-
sary, and he decided that he would
make the alterations himself. He
placed a ladder against the wall lei
the shaft. In adjusting the belt, Cav
anagh made a false move, and the lad
der slipped from under him.
AS he started to fall his clothing
caught about the shaft and in the
betting. He braced his brawny arms
against the ceiling, catching a beam
and IN this way defed the great force
of the engine. The clothing was torn
from him, and he was limp from his
terrible experience when the danger
had passed.
Physicians were called, and an in
! vestigation showed that no bones had
been broken, but Cavanagh had been
| terribly burned about the face and
neck by the friction of the belt.

The policemen do no small good

THE ovER-sToUT NJ
All Chooses Now Reeommended in
the Reduction Cures - Patient
Must Not 0ver-Sleep.

there are people who cannot re.
duca BY simple exercise, and these
must take the diet cures. There are
dozens of these, but the latest ones
are the diets which embrace cheeses
and all sorts Of milk connections, but
Which cut out meat almost entirely.
The one who is dieting can take meat
once a day in limited quantity. but
no more.
The reduction diet according to
this very latest idea. is to eat cheeses
OF all kinds, providing they are pure,
and to make a meal of them. Eat
nothing but cream cheese or other
nice cheese for lunch, with crackers,
and nothing at all to drink. A meal
OF this kind is filling and does not
hurt you. It stays by you, yet it does
not make you fat.
Bananas, fruits of all kinds, ice
cream, custards and such are eaten.
But the patient must not drink one
drop of anything for two hours after
meals. Then she may take a pint of
water if she likes. But she must not
drink right before or right after
meals.
She may eat one orthodox meal per
day, consisting of meat, vegetables
and a salad, but she must drink moth
ing while eating unless a very little
G u wine.
The late-to-bed and early-to-rise re-
.ductiOn method is one that is being
tried for the reduction of the belt
line. The patient is encouraged to
go to the theater and to stay out as
late as possible. She must not seek
her couch much before midnight.
Then she should have a good, soft bed
and be permitted to sink into a heavy
sleep. This may last until six in the
morning, but no longer. Six hours is
long enough for anybody to sleep, &C
cording to this treatment. At six she
is up and by eight she has dressed,
breakfasted and is out taking her
constitutional.
The follower of the get-up-early
method walks until almost noon, sit.
ting down occasionally and when she
comes back she is ready for her fruit
luncheon, with one little cup of tea
and a nap Of not more than Is min
utes. The afternoon is spent very
much in the same name And when
evening comes the patient is taken to
the opera. 1t is a st%renuously healthy
life, and she gets thin and strong.

Works on Farm-Pleads Guilty
of Crime.

Colfax, Wash.-Myrtle Upton, an 49,
year-old girl, is in the Whitman coun-
ty Jail awaiting sentence to the peni-

Her story is most romantic. For
years she has .masqueraded as a boy
among men who never suspected her
sex. Dressed as a youth. she worked
on a thrashing outfit throughout the
last summer on the Occur d'Alene res
ervation, and slept in her blankets
around the grain stacks with other
harvest hands, who never dreamed
that their companion was a girl of
tender years.
Myrtle Tipton: is good looking, of av-
erage height and we'll built. She has
a frank, boyish face and wears her
hair short. Speaking of her history,
the girl said:
Il never did any homework and
don't know how. From the time l
was old enough to do anything, 1 lid
the work of a boy on the farm, driving
horses and doing the chores. I like
to wear mems clothing, for it is more
comfortable than dresses.
Il plowed for several weeks with
the team l stole. I read in the papers
all about them looking for me, but l
did not try to get away when the
constables came. after me; they had
guns and handouts. 1ney pulled the
guns on me and tried to make me
throw up my hands. l wouldn't do it,
and bluffed them both out"

with a happy smile. She pleaded gull
