PITTSBURG AUDIENCE ROUSED
BY HIS REMARKABLE
PEACE ADDRESS.
Ovation for Londoner-His Hague
Pilgrimage Plan stirs Enthusiasm
of Guests at Cernegie Institute Re-
dedication Ceremonies.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 13.-At the
close of a remarkable address by
William T. Stead, editor of Review
of Reviews, London, England, at the
rededication ceremonies of the Car
negie Institute of Pittsburg late Fri
day, in which the speaker announced
a plan to raise 100000 necessary to
conduct the pilgrimage from all coun-
tries to The Hague conference advo-
Gated in recent New York address,
unbounded enthusiasm took posses
sion of the large audience and money
was thrown to the floor of the stage.
Probably never has a public speak
err been given such an ovation in this
city. The lightning-li rapidity with
which Mr.. Stead's plan to finance the
pilgrimage began almost took the
breath from the distinguished for
eign and American guests attending
the exercises. . Il 4
Plan to Raise Fund.
Mr.. Stead, after explaining the pur-
pose of the pilgrimage to the next
Hague conference estimated that it
would take at least 100000 to finance
the proposition. To raise this sum
he proposed that every boy and girl
in colleges and universities through
out the United States donate so cents
toward the fund needed. He said the
lesson furnished to Europe by such
a movement would be an influential
factor in the quest of international
peace.
The suggestion came at the end of
his address and he sat down amid
loud applause. For fully five min
utes the clapping and cheering was
prolonged and finally the speaker
again arose and said that probably
the audience would like to contribute
to the fund. Immediately a shower
of silver money landed on the stage,
coming from all parts of the music
hall.
Banquet for Carnegies.
The banquet given by the board of
trustees of the Carnegie Institute in

In view Of the further fact that sew

during the last few montAs, and which
were thought to have been suffering
from rabies, the Mapleton village coun-

the village limits must be tied up or
muzzled. The village marshal is au-

HE FOUND A DOG.

In returning to his home one
night last fall along a lonely high
way, lad in western Missouri was
approached by an animal he took to
be a dog. He whistled it up and
patted it and it followed him home,
rubbing against his legs now and
then on the way.
He shut the lost dog up in the
barn before entering the house, and
a few minutes later his father went
out to have look and was almost
frightened to death.
The "dog" turned out to be a
panther that had escaped from a
circus month before, and he was
held until the owner could send for
him. The boy still wants dog il
anyone has one to spare, but not
that kind. They growl too much
and show their teeth too often.

AN UNCONSCIOUS KNOCK.

Miss Ellen Beach Yaw, the sing
er, one day in the mountains of
southern California saw two deer at
which two sportsmen were taking
aim. Miss Yaw gave a loud shout,
and the deer, affrighted, made off,
and thus their lives were saved by
the kind-hearted young woman.
A friend Of Miss Yaw's, a Cincin-
NATHAN, after recounting this Incl
dent, said the other day:
"Let me tell you another story
about her. When she was littl,
girl she visited a lady who gave he,
the family photograph album to lool

and in a few minutes closed tn

adverse conditions is furnished by
the case Of John Petermann, Jr., Of

Tribune, Confined to his bed fol
more than three years with an af,
Fiction said to be tuberculosis Of the
bone, he has invented and has had
patented in the United States and
Canada a potato planter which is
regarded as a notable improvement
over the machines now being used
for this purpose.
While lying fiat on his back in his
bed he made the drawing of his in
vention. His only tools were an old
pen and ruler, but notwithstand-
ing this it is remarkably accurate,
even to the details.
The machine, which is propelled
by = team, makes potato planting
rapid and easy, it is said. 1t is so
arranged that two rows are planted
at the same time, the machine oper-
ating somewhat under the order of
a grain drill. The potatoes ready
for planting are placed in hopper,
which will hold several bushels.
The rows are opened by arms pro-
jecting downward and the potatoes,
by means of a clever contriyance, are
dropped into the rows at any dis
tance from 10 to 80 inches apart,
then being covered thoroughly by
flanges arranged for that purpose.
