Not Ambitious for Father.

A New Hampshire man who had at

public office, says the Boston Herald,
has a small son about 6 years Of age.
The Herald says 8 years, and that part
of the story is probably as true as the
rest.
The lad, who had been meditating
upon the uncertainties Of kingly ex-
istence, asked his mother:
IF the King Of England should die,
who would be king?"
"The Prince Of Wales"
"If the Prince Of Wales should die,
who would be king?"
His mother endeavored to explain,
but the boy, with deep breath, said:
well. anyway, l hope pa won't try
for it."

Friendly Farm Talk.

1--WE like farming country and we
like farming people," says one who
knows them. eve like country town
and the good people and good will that
pervades it. In big town people
rush and hurry and pass one another
without speaking. The mind Of every
man and womAsn seems intent on some
one object, a stranger is tempted to
believe it is selfish or grasping one
from the manner in which everything
else and every one else Is ignored.
You don't need to know people in ru-
raj community; your worthiness and
good character are taken for granted
until you disprove the presumption.
You don't need sworn statement that
you are honest from the last people
you worked for. Country people greet
you with welcome in their voices
whether they ever saw you before or
not. The jokers try to make fun of
the artless confidence in people from
rural communities, but it is fine
human attribute, worthy OF being &C
copied IN its sincere and open-hearted
spirit"

ASSASSINS SLAY CONSUL
AMERICAN OFFICIAL AT BATUM
SHOT FROM AMBUSH.
Waylaid on Way Home from Banquet,
One Bullet Taking Effect in
His Breast.

Batum, May 22.-W. H. Stuart, the
American vice consul, was shot and
killed at his country place Sunday
night. The assassin escaped. Mr..
Stuart was British subject and one
of the largest ship brokers and ex-
pOrters of Batum. During the revo-
lutiOnary troubles of last fall his life
shoremen, and at Christmas deputa-
ton visited his Office and practically
compelled him to give them 1900 un-
der the guise of a holiday gratuity for
dock laborers.
Mr.. Stuart, having dined at the
house of friend, was returning to
his country place at ManZiadjani, five
miles from Batum. He was fired on
twice from a clump of trees half a
mile from his home, one bullet pierre
ing his leg and another his breast.
Mr.. Stearne, the British vice consul
at Novo Rossiisk, who was a guest at
Mr.. Stuart's house, hearing the shoot
ing, hurried out with the servants and
found Mr.. Stuart lying on the ground
bleeding from his wounds. He was
still conscious, but said he would not
be able to recognize his assassin owing
to the darkness.
Mr.. Stuart was conveyed to mill
tary barracks in the vicinity, where
he expired two hours later. The body
was transported to the consulate at
Batum.
Aside from the troubles during the
revolutionary disturbances last fall,
Mr.. Stuart had had no friction with
the native population. He was so gen.
orally respected that he was On sew

Mr.. Stuart, who was 40 years of age,

in Russia, the last IL years in Batum.
Besides his official connections he had
extensive business relations through
out the entire Caucasus. He spoke sew
eral native dialects and was considered

FOREST FIRES ARE PUT OUT
Rain and Falling Wind Bring Relief
to the Stricken Districts
of Michigan.

Milwaukee, May PA special rom
Marinette, Wis, says: All danger
from forest fires is past. 1t was rain
ing Monday morning and the wind has
died out. The loss everywhere is be-
lieved to have been greatly exagger-
ated.
The /. Stephenson company, at
Wells, Mich, was the heaviest loser
and it's losses will not be more than
$4,000.
The most damage is at Quinnesec
Mich, large town which was de-
stroyed, but the fire there was not due
to forest fire, but to, a bonfire in the
rear of library stable. There are no
woods around Quinnesac.

skyscrapers and Earthquakes.

Chicago's newer skyscrapers, with
their foundations far beneath the sur
face, on the bed rock, would, accord
ing to the chronological society of
Japan, stand much better chance in
an earthquake than would many of
the older type of buildings. 1t has
been demonstrated that the complete
isolation of the foundations of a
building from the surface Of the soil
obtains for the building comparative
immunity from damage. The reason
is that the surface shakes more than
the adjacent lower layers of the soil,
just as, if several billiard balls be
placed in row, an impulse given to
the first one will make only the last
one fly off, Nhile those in the middle
remain nearly motionless. For the
same reason it is dangerous to build
near the edge OF cliff.

Lesson in Disaster.

We seize this opportunity to point
out, chiefly as warning for the benefit
of the general public, since most en-
gineers know it full we'll, the utter
helplessness and hopelessness Of the
modern city when its public water
supply is cut off. II fire breaks out
the city is at the mercy of the winds,
and If 1t once gains Roadway tho fire
may be said to spread on the wings OF
its own wind. Dreadful as the fire risk
is when the water supply fails, that
calamity scarcely compares with the
other attendant dangers, the greatest
of all Of which may be brain-crazing
thirst. The conditions are rare, how
ever, at least in nearly all American
cities, where enough water cannot
soon be secured to quench thirst; but
it should be remembered, urges En-
cheering News, that dangerous thirst
is matter of scarcely more than
hours, and that Under the heat and
tense excitement Of fire natural thirst
Is speedily aggravated. In the long
run water enough to'Quench thirst is
bound to be secured, or else the place
abandoned or depopulated by death.
This, however, will not avert whole
series of calamities; first, the certainty
that where drinking water is scarce
and disorder prevalent fuany people
will drink polluted water; and, second,
that lack of water for household pur-
poses, including use in water closets,
will give rise to the accumulations OF
both ordinary filth and decomposing
fecal matter. Under such conditions,
obviously, water closets should not be
used, but it is not easy to prevent this,
and even with extraordinary public
sanitary CONTROL 1t would be difficult to
prevent other and almost as dangerous
nuisances; namely, accumulations of
fecal matter out of doors, which, in
the summer time, or during the whole
year in warm climates, will afford an
opportunity for the spread of typhoid
fever by means of flies, exactly as
happened, though quite needlessly, at
our military camps during the Span
ish-American war.

WISCONSIN TOWN BURNED
HEAVY FIRE LOSS rs SUSTAINED
AT STANLEY.
Over 100 RESIDENCES and a Dozen
Business Houses Destroyed by
Wind-Fanned Flames

Stanley, Wis.,, May 19-Fire, which
started from a spark from the North
western mill, destroyed 100 residences
and a dozen business buildings. The
loss is estimated at 100000.
The fire broke out in the stables of
the Northwestern Lumber company,
and spread rapidly. A high wind from
the west carried the flames away from
the Northwestern mill and saved that
structure, but six blocks to the east
were completely burned out.
The large department store of the
Northwestern Lumber company was
among the business places wiped out,
and the loss to the building and stock
will total $4,000.
Among the other losers were: ]. N.
Olson, furniture, $4,000; Long & Ness,
meat market, $4,000; Christian & Kon-
sella, farm implements, $4,000; Norwe-
gian church and Young Peoples read
ing room, $4,000.
The damage in the residence section
is estimated at over 100000, every
house being destroyed between the
Northwestern store and Franklin
street.
The flames were blown by a high
wind from the west, and SO rapid was
the progress of the conflagration that
practically nothing could be saved
from the residences. The public Ii
brary was on fire several times, but
the walls of the building and most of
the books were saved. The high school
building was threatened, but heroic
work on the part of the firemen saved
it.
Engines and firemen were sent from
Thorpe, Eau Claire and Chippewa
Falls, and the firemen succeeded in
keeping the flames out of the main
business section.
The store of W. d. Schulz, across
from the Northwestern store, was afire
several times, and if the flames had not
been checked here the whole business
section would have gone.
