RISKS LIFE TO SAVE GOOSE.

Man lowered Down an Old Mine Shaft
700 Feet Deep.
E FROM Oxford, Warren county, N. J..
comes the story of Lewis Albert, an
engineer at the mines, says the New
YORK Herald, who for the sake of
goose's life, risked his own for fully
forty minutes in a daring and sensa-
tional manner.
The goose got over the fence of its
coop, Mapped it's wings, flew over the
opening of the shaft, which is 700
feet deep, fell into the black hole and
disappeared.
On the following day persons pass.
ing the shaft heard sepulchral cries
proceeding from some subterraneous
source. Kenple heard the sounds and
learned OF the goose's plight.
The oil hosting apparatus was ex.
amined and found to be useless and
the problem arose as TO how the bird
was to be rescued. One man lowered
a nook and line, to which was attached
a worm, but the goose would not bite.
Then Albert took a long rope and,
selecting a group of miners, he babe
them lower him into the mine.
Albert got down about 200 feet and
a minute later there was fierce honk.
Ing, followed by a signal to pull up
quickly. Albert soon appeared with
the struggling bird in his arms.

Milking Cows by Machinery.

Milking Cows by Machinery.
A test has been completed at the
dairy department of the Kansas State
Agricultural college which proves that
milking machines are success.
The machines we're installed and
the test conducted by Prof o. Err, in
charge Of the state dairy work. The
machines operate by means Of
vacuum. A three-horse-power gaso-
line engine runs a vacuum pump
which exhausts the air out of a syn.
TEN Of pipes. These pipes run along
the side of the cows, and the milking
machines are attached to these pipes
by flexible hose.
The vacuum created by the pump
runs q pulsator on the top Of the can
and this produces an intermittent sue
ton in the cups attached to the teats
OF the COW. The suction draws the
milk from the COW through the rubber
tube and deposits 1t in the can. The
milk is not exposed to the air, hence
absolutely sanitary milk can be pro-
duced.-Kansas City Star.

Isle Of Beauty, Fare Thee Well.

Shades Of evening close not Ger us,
Leave our lonely bark awhile:
Morn, alas! will not restore US
Yonder dim and distant isle.
Still my fancy can discover
: Sunny spots where friends may dwell:
Darker shadows round US hover
Isle Of Beauty, fare thee well!
IT'S the hour when happy faces
Smile around the taper's light;
Who will fill our vacant places?
Who will sing our songs tonight?
Through the mist that floats above us
Family sounds the vesper bell,
Like q voice from those who love US.
Breathing fondly. fare thee well!
When the waves are round me breaking,
AS I pace the deck alone,
And my eye IL vainly seeking
Some green leaf to rest upon,
When on that dear land ponder,
Where my old companions dwell,
Absence makes the heart grow fonder-
Isle Of Beauty, fare thee well!

Jamaica and Cuba,

Although Jamaica is one Of the
same chain Of islands which are
known as the West Indies. the natural
attractions Of the Pearl Of the An.
titles are Of a different character from
those Of Cuba. The tropical growths
are denser and the mountain range
which runs through the island rises
in places to 50 great height as 5000
feet. Cuba Is hilly, but Jamaica is
mountainous. Jamaica is especially
the habitat of the palm, and there the
most tropical variety Of foliage may
be seen in the comfort of genial spring
sunshine. The Inhabitants take life
calmly in this most important British
possession In the West Indies.

Origin Of Pungent Odor Which Had

During the construction of q station
on the line OF one Of the principal rail-
roads of the Pine Tree state the
building had progressed to the point
where plastering was the next thing
necessary, and the contractor in
charge feared that, owing to the
length of time required for drying,
he would be unable to complete his
work within the specified time
An official of the road, who CHANGED
to be in the vicinity, directed him to
use adamant as substitute, which, a.
all builders knows, dries very rapidly,
and though none of the men were "a
miliar with this material, he gladly
complied with the suggestion. and
on order was dispatched post haste
for a generous supply.
The following morning two men and
q team were detailed to meet the
train at the freight station above.
In a short time they returned In tri.
umph with score of large sacks
filled with grayish brown ingre
dent, and the foreman felt that the
situation was saved.
The work of plastering was soon
briskly under way, but during the
forenoon powerful and inexplicable
odor seemed to fill the air, growing
more and more dominant as the day
advanced, until by afternoon the
fumes were almost insuffe7able, and
the language of the men became az
pungent as the atmosphere. All sorts
of theories had been advanced to &C

vents Tampering.
1t Is often very desirable to know
how to seal letter so that it cannot
be opened without betraying the fact.
Steam or hot water will open envel-
opes closed with mucilage and even a
wafer. A hot iron or a spirit lamp dis.
solves sealing wax, an impression In
plaster having been taken Of the seal.
BY the combined use of wafer and
sealing wax, however, all attempts to
open the letter otherwise than by
force can be frustrated. All that is
necessary is to close the letter first
with small moist wafer and to piece
the latter with a coarse needle (the
same applies to mucilage), whereupon
sealing wax may be used in the usual
manner. This seal can neither be
opened by dry heat nor by moisture.

IS INTERNALLY INJURED

An east bound freight had just
reached Gregory and was pulling in
on tho side track at that station to
meet west bound freight, when the
latter train suddenly loo ned out from
tho dense fog scarcely two osr lengths
ahead and before the trains could be
stopped the west bound train struck

A wrecking crew was speedily sent
to the scene and to facilitate tbs re-
sumal of traffic, q sidetfask was con-
struote1 around the wreck, which has

the collision is attributed to tbs in
