WHITE HORSE AND HIS
 RIDER GET CALLED DOWN

Inside the place there were several, and inside the several were several more the last addition to the group seemed to be Lost Spring. but that which capped the climax, and a night cap at that, and not only night cap, but d mad cap, was that the Spring was on a horse and the horse was white. e.~~5
 Needless to say crowd collected, a policeman collected also and when he saw what he saw, he crossed himself. Was it Gabriel? The cop looked closer and seeing no trumpet grew bolder and went inside. too.
 One of the several inside who had had several more than the others did not see the pony and it's rider come through the swinging doors, did not even hear. but for some reason turn ed. 1t chanced. with "several' raised to his lips. The result was that sev- eral of the internal several came to his lips too and the cop came to the rescue of the situation. Thero was no disorder about the whole proceeding, and for a while the cop didn't know what to do. then it occurred to him that to ride a horse on the pavement was bad form, very bad form. and he said as much.
 Softly nnuttering to himself the old ballad:
 "A little spring had lost its way amid
 the grass and fern.
 passing stranger scooped a well
 where weary men might turn. He walled 1t in and hung with care
 ladel at the brink
 sHe thought not of the deed he did
 but judged that all might drink. i"
 Repeating the last line pointedly he led the pony away to his chief and told the latter that the horse had no business on the sidewalk and since it was a fine horse, 1t ought to be fined for what it had done.

A LAUNCH DISASTER.
Seven Men Believed to Have Drowned
 in Calumet River.

In Calumet River.
 Chicago, Sept 3s--Although seven men are believed to have been drown ed in the capsizlnS of a pleasure launch last night in collision with the Nickle Plate Railroad bridge across the Calumet River. the police are still unable to determine the iden- tity of the victims and no bodies have been recovered.
 The sole survivor of the launch par ty. Elmer Westergren. owner of the craft. is under arrest in the South Chicago police station, and has not yet given a coherent account of the cir eufistaness of the accident. He is ap- parentIy dazed, and physician is watching him and seeking to revive his faculties. so that the extent of the disaster can be learned.
 With daylight the force of men dragging the river near the bridge was increased and strenuous efforts were made to find the bodies of the passengers.
 The gasoline launch containing Wst- ergren and seven friends. whom he had invited to take a trip on the lake with him. was going up the Calumet. A high wind was blowing and dark ness added to the danger of the cur rent at the bridge piers. Apparently none of the occupants of the boat real lzed their danger for there was no outcry when the boat struck the bridge support and turned turtle.
 WesterEren swam to shore, but no trace of his companions was found.

REPORTS ON REGENT HURRICANE
 IN BAHAMAS.
Property Damage Was Great and There was soifse Loss of Life
 Number of Vessels

Nassau, Bahama, Thursday. Sept. 24-Only fragmentary reports have yet reached the scat of government here as to the damage done to the outlying islands of the dependency which were ravaged by a hurricane instant. but such news as has arrived is sufficiently bad.
 The storm appears to have origin ated near Turks Island and swept with ever-incfeasing fury up the long striIg of islands running south east from here,
 Ina qua, Acklins. Crooked. Ragged Exuma and the south part of Andros Islands all appear to have suffered.
 On Long Island the gale blew for two days and the settlements are practically obliterated from end to end the principal place. Glarencetown having only five houses left standing The inhabitants were forced to find shelter in caves and food and water are almost unprocurable.
 The government schooner, Sarah E. Douglas. was blown from her anchor age at Long Bay and was driven ashore on Long Island Many other boats were lost. but 1t will be weeks before the full account will reach Nassau.
 There IS no d0ubt that the loss or life is heavy. The whole countryside even so far as Cat Island, Is scalded and burnt as if with fire from the ter rible driving of the salt water across the land While the actual money loss is insignificant, tho houses destroyed for the most part being mere shanties, nevertheless the loss to the owners Is severe, representing. as it does. practi- cally everything that they possessed
 The Government has taken relief measure and sch0oners are being daily despatched laden with foodstuf, lum- Der and nails.
 The recent gale is said to have ex- ceeded in fury the hurricane of 1866, which has always been the standard of comparison but unlike that storm. the present one was defiected from. it's course and travelled northeast and not northwest. so that this. the capital and the nearer islands which were wrecked in 1866, escaped this time with nothing but a stiff blow.

With only his left arm free. he hacked at the tentacles until they were partial ly crippled. but he was being drawn toward the deadly beak when he saw the outline of the hsh's body: .
 PIunging suddenly toward 1t. he drove the knife with all his force into the head. repeating the blow until he had slashed 1t into sections.
 In it's death throes the octopus frightened It's tentacies until the diver was almost crushed in its embrace. Lund then cut himself free and was brought to tho surface in a fainting condition.

LOSS TO IsLANDSILAMA IS IN CHINA

With Large Taetfnue He Eaters Yellow Kingdom and People Give

PekinE, Sept 2s.A-The Lalia Lama of Tibet. accompanied by a retinue Of eighty attendants arrived this after noon at Ting Chow, a city in Chi Li Province. fifty miles southwest of Pao Ting Flu.
 A thfofg of emmissaries met him at Pao Ting Fa and he was received In loyal manner by a large number Of imperial as well as Picking officials who journeyed out from the capital for the purpose. He was escorted to the Yellow Temple where he made his headduartefs. His route of march to this building. distance of four miles, was lined By crowds of Chinese who had gathered to honor him. The roadway had been covered with yell low sand as is dofie when the emper or travels Abroad.-yellow Is the i'm perial color in Chifia-and an elabo- rate program of royal entertainment ceremony of 'kow towing" to the eni- perof, but it Is believed that Dalia Lama will refuse to perform this func- ton.
 During their years of wandering the attendants Of the Dalai Lama have become thoroughly demofaiized. They have lived at the expense of the local authorities and their demands have been limited only by the ability of the officials to produce what they wanted. They are wild. disordefiy, unkempt crowd, giving no appearance of holi- ness
 A most important problem is brought out by the absence of the Dalia Lama from u Hasa He left that holy city because the presence of Colonel Y6unghusbands force had descerated it.
 Chinas efforts for four years to get the Lama to do what she wanted have proved unavailable and she has onw embarked on course of reiig- ious intrigue With the Tashi Lama the Grand Lama who rules at Ii Has sa during the absence of the Dalia Lama, China's purpose in this is to secure a foothold for the political mastery of Tibet and Mongolia and 1t Is believed here. in view Of the re- caloifrant attitude maintained by the Dalia Lama. that China will have the Tashi Lama come to Peking.
 The activities displayed by the foragers. and producers of the Dalai Lama forecast repetition of the soandalous proceedings that were wit messed at wutia Shan. where the Dalai Lama held court for three months last sumT1efs gtg5
 The entire retinue of the Lama has not yet arrived at Ting Chow but still the local authorities have seen fit to place the policing of the city on a military basis.

 Fargo, N. D., Sept. 2S.--Big crowds, menifesting both interest and enthu. siasm have surrounded the Taft party. wherever 1t stopped today in its course over the Great Northern up through Minnesota and North Dakota.
 The sixteen speeches which Taft de- livered during the day and evening worked havoc with the splendid voice he started out with this morning and tonight it Is again in bad condition. The day had two features-the Grand Forks, N. D.. meeting and the Fargo rally tonight. Tn both places immense crowds were out and in each the can didate had to make three speeches.
 The Fargo meeting was made unique by the striking feature of a huge bar becue. Ten steers and twenty sheep furnished food for the multitudes. The feast was participated in by thousands of excursionists who had come from as far as 450 miles distant.
