When Billy was abreast OF the car
and il took good work on the Iast
of both horse and rider to achieve
that-he called to the terror-stricken
little offender:
Get over on one side-quick-
make room for me-Im going ts
Jump" And as she crept away to
the other side, he leaped from the
back of the running horse and fell
all in heap-but in the car.
1t was but the work of a moment
to gather himself up and reverse the
lever. The next moment he had the
steering wheel in his hand, and had
the car turned, and then ran back to

and when he quite understood that
his rider had suddenly disappeared,
he stopped and cropped an especially

difference to races or runaway cars.

ceedingly uncomfortable, and yet
pleasant. to that praise-shunning
young man. And at chat, Billy's
eyes suddenly frightened, and he
spoke:
"If you would let me run the ma

going to do" he began. Il know
all about it, sir. I've studied it up,

And then the doctor put a few ques-

full in what he has to do, and what

expectedly, there may be chances for

DON'T CUT YOUR SLEEP SHORT.
British Scientists Frown On the
Wellington Rule.

The papers read in the physiologi-
cal section of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science dis
cussing sleep and rest were all op-
posed to the old idea that mankind
should be content with short slum-
Der. The Duke of Wellington's die
tum of six hours for a man, seven
for a woman and eight for a fool
went by the board.
Francis Dyke Acland urged the
necessity for plenty of sleep for the
young as necessary to their bodily
and mental development. He said
that most of boys growth was done
in bed. He quoted letter from the
head master of large school, where
the breakfast hour had been changed
from to o'clock, as saying that
the whole school was brighter and
doing better work.
DR.. Gotch said that the healthiest
sleep was dreamless. He mentioned
Lord Kitchener's faculty of being
able to go into dreamless sleep at any
moment
Professor Lewis said that the nor
nal sleep Of laboring man during
the first half hour was very deep and
then grew shallower.
Professor Meyers related his own
experience with a German doctor.
He arranged to be awakened after a
half hour to see what his mental con-
dition was. He set himself several
problems in arithmetic. The next
day he was awakened after an hours
sleep, and so on, increasing his, time
for sleep by an hour day until he
got six hours. He found his ability
in connection with arithmetic as
great after an hours sleep as after
six hours. When, however, he came
to try another test this one COM
pletely broke down. In trying to
test his memory he found it grew in
proportion to the number of hours
of sleep he took.

Remarkable Rescue of One of a
Sailing Party.
Three Of Eight Who Ended Carouse
in Boat Drowned In NeIy
York Harbor.

New York City.-A party Of eight,
composed of four men and four wom-
en-, ventured upon the waters Of the
Lower Bay in the auxiliary sloop
Sausage at night after a jolly dinner
at Sheepshead Bay. The boat was
small and the sea ran high.
The night was particularly dark
and there was streSg wind blow
ing. The boat became disabled, and,
drifting about near Hoffman Island,
was struck by scow in tow of tug.
The occupants Of the sloop were
thrown into the water.
Five of the party, three men and
two women, were rescued. One man
was picked up by boat from the
incoming liner Ell Paso, three others
were taken aboard a tug, and the
fifth escaped drowning in a more
marvellous way. The saved were

were drowned. Of the woman it is
only known that she was called Mrs.
Saunders" that she was tall and
dark and wore eyeglasses, that she
came from Boston and was a guest of
Mabel Cooke. The names of the men
are in doubt. One may be Russell
Beeler. The dinner party was not
one of friends, but merely Of chance
acquaiRtances.
Fannie Day, who lived at the same
address as Mabel Cooke, was saved.
after one Of the most remarkable ex-
periences known in the history Of
the waterfront hereabout. When the
launch was struck she sank deep into
the water to come up beneath the
scow.
BY sheer good fortune, che found
a haven in the hopper of a flatboat-
a little place scarcely big enough to
turn around in. Hanging on to
chain for her life, she was towed up
the harbor to be found only when
the scow had reached its dock.

DEATH FROM SINGLE BEE STING.
Tragedy Attributed 10 Poison From
Strange Flower. aE

Onawa, Iowa.-Two recent myster-
tous deaths in this vicinity from the
sting of single bee has 80 alarmed
the people that now ordinary honey
bees are regarded with somewhat the
same terror as rattlesnaAes. The
first victim was E. w. Pegg,' OF Mon
DAMN. He was hiving swarm OF
honey-bees, when one lone bee stung
him. A few minutes later he went
into the house and fell unconscious.
Just thirty minutes after the bee had
stung him a physician was called, but
arrived after he was dead.
The second death occurred at Ute,
Iowa. Mrs. Clara Box was stung by
a honey-bee. Immediately afterward
her face began to swell and pain her
greatly. Physicians could do nothing
to relieve her, and in twenty-four
hours she died in great agony. The
only explanation that has been given
of these deaths is that the bees have
found some poisonous flower In this
section.
