EAsIN' TO THE FEELIN's.
How the Natives Of Labrador Arc
Taught to Swear.

The weather has been cool and brac-
ing, but as if to add to our difficulties
the sun now boiled down and the
black fies-"the DEVILS angels" some
one called them-came in thousands
to feast upon the newcomers and
make life miserable for us all, writes
Dillon Wallace, Of Labrador, In Out
ing. Duncan was as badly treated by
them as any Of US, although he be-
longed to the country, and overheard
him swearing at a lively gait o o
after the little beasts began their at
tacks.
why Duncan" said l. Il didn't
know you swore."
81 does, sir, sometimes-when
things makes me-" he replied.
But it doesn't matter any to swear.
does it?"
mo, sir, but (swatting his facet
it's easin' to the feelin's to swear
sometimes"
On several occasions after this l
heard Duncan "easin' his feelin's' in
long and astounding bursts of profane
eloquence, but he did try to moder-
ate his language when l was within
earshot. Once l asked him:
where in the world did o learn
to swear like that, Duncan"
"At the lumber camps, sir" he re-
piled.
In the year 1 had spent in Labrador
7 had never before heard a planter
or native of Groswater bay swear.
But this explained it. The lumber
men from civilization" were educat-
ing them.

Indiana Minister Who Approves of the

Bloomington, Ind.-Rev. w. r. vii,

boldly advocate his sentiments when
the matter of horse racing at the coun.

Mr.. Williams is not a man who seeks
n%otoriety, but When a worldly matter
to his attention he speaks his
convictions. He prepared the follow.
ing statement for the Journal:
There are two objections raised
against horse racing. Cruelty to the
horse and gambling. I do not consider
racing cruel, nor any more a task than
driving or working the horse extra
time for pleasure or money. God

GREELEY AS A PosEuR.
Great Editor Was Prone to Harmless
Affectation.

There was a great deal Of innocence
in Horace Greeley as well as not a lit.
tie ~affectation. He was rarely seen
without one trousers leg carelessly
caught in the upper part of his boot,
and a necktie with a bow under his
ear. Once in the public room of a
hotel a friend of Greeley's kindly
pulled down the disarranged trousers
leg and Strengthened the necktie.
Greeley thanked him and soon after
left the room. When in the course OF
half an hour he appeared in the street
the trousers leg and the necktie had
been carefully disarranged, and the
nan looked as negligent Of things
earthly as he always looked. 1t was
part of his pose as a man Of genius
to wear his trousers leg and his neck,
tie as II he had put them on in a
hurry while absorbed in meditation. 1t
was a harmless eccentricity.

SUIT OVER INCH OF LAND.
Owner Ordered to Court to Saw a
Silver Off House to Make
UP Deficiency.

San Francisco.-A silver one inch al
one end and two inches at the other
must be sawed from the side of house
in Berkeley to satisfy novel suit over
an inch of land for which w. Mauch was
asking $4,000 of M. l.. Wurts, Berkeley
real estate dealer. If Wurts did not
want to buy the inch outright he had the
option OF paying Mauch five dollars a
month rent for it.
According to the testimony of Wurts
he was between Mauch on one side and
a neighbours house on the other which
abutted on his own lot. He could not
move, but rather than submit to Mauch's
proposition he took his chance in court.
He said that he had offered Mauch 500
for the strip. which the latter refused.
Judge Waste found that Wurts' house
projected over on Mauch's land and Or
dered so much of the house removed
as was necessary to clear the land sued
for The house is situated near the
Key Route station at Ashby avenue, be-
tween Emerson and Stanford streets.

Less Danger at Sea.

Figures show, so far as past experi-

improving; vessels are more stanchly
constructed; safety devices are added
constantly. Communication between q
vessel in distress and other ships by
wireless telegraphy is playing it's i'm.
portant part in the rescue of threat

writer notes also the patent sounding
machine, Lord Kelvin's compass, i'm

of determining ships position, better
lighting and submarine signaling, "by

contributed greatly to the safety of
crews and passengers.-Philadelphia

this city, had 3 marrow escape from
death BY . vicious COW, and had II
not been for the presence Of one OF
his own animals, q pet bossy name
Maude, who fought OF the charging
beast, his hour would have been at
hand.
. He left his home for closely corn
fieli to get his stock for the night. While:
rounding up his cattle he was at
tackled by q COW Of q neighbor's herd.
He was struck in the hack and
knocked down. AS he was about to.
rise, he was charged again, and the
animal made an attempt to gore him.
He made an effort to get his pocket
knife, but on account Of the savage at
tacks of the COW was prevented.
After few minutes, in which the
COW occupied her time in an effort
to finish her victim, Mr.. Calvert's COW
came up. She Immediately challenged
her masters assailant and q furious
battle resulted. This gave Mr.. Cal
vert the opportunity to get clear Of
