president was willing and sought to
find him place. He had about settled

that he had killed four men. | didn't

did not form the basis of the protest.

Gilbert Keith Chesterton says in his
''Heretics: The artistic temperament
is disease that afflicts amateurs. 1t
is a disease that arises from men not
having sufficient power of expression
to utter and get rid of the element of
art in their being. Artists of a large
and wholesome vitality get rid of their
art easily, as they breathe easily or
perspire easily. But in artists OF less
force the thing becomes a pressure,
and produces definite pain, which is
called the artistic temperament The
great tragedy of the artistic tempera-
meEt is that it cannot produce any
art"

Moneyless Consumptives.

general effort is being made in
various cities, it is said, to prevent the
sending of INDECENT consumptives to
distant communities, where they can
not be assured proper care. The Asso-
ciated Charities committee on the pre-
vcntion of consumption discussed the
matter at its last meeting and decided
to issue a letter to physicians and cit
liens of various cities, calling atten-
ton to the consequences arising from
the practice of sending poor consump-
tives to such states as Arizona. Colo
RADIO and California. 1t is declared that
difficult as it may be for a poor man to
recover from tuberculosis in his own
city, he is better off there among his
friends and relatives. where there are
more adequate hospital and dispensary
facilities, than he has far from home,
where he is thrown entirely upon his
own resources and where the great
number of consumptives willing to
work at the lowest wages make the
finding of employment especially of
suitable nature, almost impossible

Where You're Most Likely to Be Hu,

Twelve per cent. of all the acct
dents to people in cities happen on the
streets. Statistics show that the aver
age citizen, if he should meet with
100 serious mischances on his walks
abroad, would slip on the ice. and fall
down under other circumstances. 6S
times; he would get hurt ten times in
boarding or dismounting from cars: he
would be knocked down, or otherwise
injured, by horses and wagons six
times; he would be bitten by dogs four
times. and he would step disastrously
upon banana-peels twice. The remain
ing mishaps would be miscellaneous
and might include one or two col
lisions with motor cars, which have
taken the place of bicycles as perils
to the pedestrian.-Pearson's Maya

The Clements Company now has
regular diver here who is investigat-

firner report to the effect that Mr..
e. r Curtis. the B. & Q. engineer
In charge of this work had given
sort of u1ttmation to the contractors
that the bridge must be ready for
trains by Sept. i. Quite little trou-
BILE exists between Mr.. Curtis, the en-
glneer in charge OF construction, and
Mr.. B. F. Hanna, of Pt. Marion, super
visor of track on the F., M. & P. The
trouble all comes from dispute as to
who has authority to take the rail
and good ties in the old abandoned
track between here and Rivesvflle.
Supervisor Hanna contended that he
had authority to take the rail and
sent Dale Malone's work train here
and began taking 1t up. AS soon,
however, as Mr.. Curtis found it out
he sent Mike Cunningham's work
train down to Rfvesviile and he took
out the frog of the switch, putting a
short piece of rail In It's place and
spiked up the switch, thus shutting
Mr.. Hanna's work train out of the dis
puted track. How it will end yet no
one knows. Probably some one high
er in authority will have it to settle.
