MOUNT GUARD IN BASKET.
Korean Soldiers Take Things Easy
While on Duty.

"The Korean Tommy Atkins mounts
guard curled up in basket filed with
rags and cotton WOOL" says an ex-
plorer Of that queer country. Even
at the royal palace one sees this
curious sight. The Korean warrior is
not giant; on the contrary, he Is
diminutive, only little over five feet
In height, or even less, so that the
round basket which contains him is
made only about four feet in diameter,
and three and half feet deep.
I'm the inner enclosure of the royal
palace two soldiers are placed on
guard at a time, and the baskets are
larger accordingly. The two warriors
contained in them squat or curl up to-
sether' like two birds In a nest. Their
guns are generally left standing some
where close by; but when the position
to be guarded is a very responsible
one, they are nursed in the basket
with their owners

WHEN WAGES WERE LOW.
Salaries Of Long Ago Really Larger
Than They Seemed.

Columbus" said an antiquary Of
Chicago, "got salary Of 1920 a year,
less than a dollar day His capr
tains got $3.50 year apiece. His
crew got 1928 a month. To equip
the expedition that discovered America
cost $4,000. The total cost of discov-
ering America was $1,000.
Lawyers nowadays, especially cor
poration lawyers, think nothing Of
earning million a year. In the reign
of Edward w, baronet entered in
his diurnaI, or diary:
paid to Roger Flypott, learned in
the law, for his counsel, three shilk
ings. with four pence for his dinner
Ministers often make to-day $4,000
or $4,000 year. The late DIR. Tai
mage made 100000. Yet John Knox
only got 1920 a year, or $4 a week,
and that was a dollar more week
than Scottish judges got.
Small salaries, those" concluded
the antiquary; "but we must remem-
ber that In that epoch there we're no
trusts to initiate prices, and a dollar
went long way. In fact, a Christ
mas dinner for family of six would
have cost, in John Knox's time-for
the turkey, 10 cents; cranberry sauce,
2 cents; potatoes, cent; turnips.
/. cent; celery, cent; plum pudding,
2 cents-total II cents, or less than
3 cents head"

church choir. Some of the finest
church music ever heard in the city
was rendered at this service. The
singing of Mr. and Mrs James in a
duet was very fine. Mrs. Chubb, who
sang very pretty solo, is new conner
to Vinita of whom the city should feel
proud. She sang at the meetings held
by e. Wolfe in London, England,
before coming to this country. She is
a singer Of rare ability.
The singing of Miss st ford Daniels
was also pleasing feature of the con-
cert. Miss Daniels has fine voice,
and the fact that SHE is a native Of
this city gave her hearers all the more
reason to be impressed with her re-
markably sweet singing,
The choir also rendered several beau
tiful anthems that we're enjoyed by
one of the largest audiences ever seen
in the church.

SEVERAL BURGLAR
les IN PAW PAW
Effect Entrance to Residences
Of Under Sheriff Shrine
and w. C.. Wildey.
JUICE FACTORY SAFE R|FLEO
Scattered About. Charm
and Coins taken.

Burglars have been busy ir Paw Paw
during the past week. Several houses
have been entered and the safe at the
Paw Paw Grape juice plant was broken
into They did not make very great
haul, however, at any of the places.
About o'clock last Monday morning
Genevieve, daughter OF Mrs. f. d. Sir
rine, who occupies room. up stairs, was
awakened by someone walking in the
room below. She thought it was some
member of the family and took no notice
of it until the footsteps were heard CON-
ing up the stairs, when she screamed.
Elmer and Mrs Shrine, who occupied
a room on the first floor in another part
OF the house, were awakened by her call
and hurried to the front part of the
house, but the intruder had made good
his escape through the window by which
he had entered. 1t had rained during
the night and tracks were found leading
from the window across the road and on
the sidewalk, but of course they could
not be traced further. Nothing was
taken from the house as he was fright
ened away soon after entering. One
would naturally suppose that burglar
would steer clear OF the sheriff and his
deputies, but the intruder wa uudoubt-
edly someone who had not yet made
Under sheriff Sirrine's acquaintance in
an official way.
About the same hour that morning
Mrs. Wildey heard someone enter the
back door of their residence She arose
and went to the stair aL ding and list
ened and heard him come to the foot OF
the stairs. Just at that time Mr.. Will
dey spoke to her and she heard the in
truder quietly steal across the room and
depart from the door in which he had
entered Mrs. Wildey had heavy oak
chair in her hands and said she was sor-
ry Mr. Wildey spoke, as she was waiting
to get a whack at him "a be came up
the stairs.
Someone was heard at the window of
VIM. Buffers residence the same night
and footprints were plainly seen under
the window the next morning. A noise
inside, however, frightened them away
and they did not effect an entrance.
Again on Tuesday right burglars en-
tered the Paw Paw grape juice plant,
went to the basement and selected a
sledge and ak and broke the lock from
the door and rified the safe. Checks
and certificates of deposit which would
be OF no use to them were scattered
about the floor, but beautiful Knight
Templar charm set with diamonds and
rubies, and several souvenir coins, all be-
longing to Mr.. Miller were taken. No
clue to the perpetrators of the crime has
been found, and the work is undoubted-
ly that of professionals. Two strangers
were noticed about the grape juice fac
tory Tuesday afternoon. One was seen
to walk back and forth across the front
platform as though looking for someone,
while the other called at Mr.. Miller's
home late in the evening and asked who
lived in the next house. Mr.. Miller
watched him, however, and noticed that
he did not 60 near the place asked about.
1t is to be hoped that some clue can be
found by which the perpetrators Of the
crimes may be apprehended

Work Progressing at the d am.

The contractors have been somewhat
handicapped in their work at the dam
on account of material. Steel that
should have been here long ago has not
yet arrived and the arrival of lumber is
slow, but they are progressing nicely
under the circumstances. Two dykes
are nearly completed and another one
started. The ditch for the cement cove
is about completed and some of the pill
ing has been driven. A steam concrete
mixer was placed on the ground Tues
day and force of teams is drawing
gravel for the same. The capacity of
the mixer is 100 yards of concrete per

FOOLING A CAMEL.
How the Arabs Let the Animal Exhaust
Its Bad Temper.

How the Arabs Let the Animal Exhaust
Its Bad Temper.
You all have heard stories about tie
camel-how patient and useful lie Is
on long. hot Journeys, SO that lie Is
often called the "ship Of the desert"
But he has one very bad fault. He
likes to pay back" and II his driver
has injured him in any way he will not
rest TIL he has returned the injury.
The Arabs, who wander about the
deserts and so use the camel great
deal, know about this fault Of his and
have a queer way Of keeping them
selves from getting hurt.
When Il driver has made his camel
angry, he first runs away out OF sight.
Then, choosing place where the camel
will soon pass, he throws down some
of his clothes and fixes them so that
the heap will look like a sleeping man.
Pretty soon along comes the camel
and sees the heap. Thinking to him
self, "Now I've got him." he pounces
on the clothes shakes them around aud
tramples all over them. After he Is
tired OF this and has turned away the
driver can reappear and ride him away
without harm.
Poor silly camel. He has been In
what we call "a blind rage" so angry
that he can't tell the difference be-
tween man and heap Of clothes.-

A PAPER OF PINS.

Pins were introduced In the SIX
teenth century.
Then they were costly and highly
priced as gifts.
A paper of pins was more acceptable
than bouquet
An act was passed in 1913 making II
Illegal to charge more than eightpence
q thousand for metal pins.
Persons of quality often used pins
made of lockwood, bone and silver,
while the poor put up with wooden
skewers.
In those day husbands were often
surprised at the great amount Of mon
ey that went for pins; hence the term
pin money
Not so many years ago the frugal
American housewife was wont to teach
pin economy by teaching her children
that canny couplet. See a pin and
pick It up, all the day you'll have good
luck."-Philadelphia Record.
