A PATHETIC INCIDENT

On every bridge spanning the
Seine, in Paris, there is a beggar;
he seems almost the genius loci
On one particular bridge, facing the
Louvre, a strange and pathetic meet
ing took place last week between a
brother and a sister.
A young workgirl, passing by,
was touched at the spectacle of sight
less eyes-a figure standing patient
ly by the parapet with outstretched
cap. With the kindness of the poor
to their kind, the 'ourviere" dropped
a penny into the blind mans hand.
Mechanically her eyes read g notice
ON the beggar's coat. pierre Du-
pcnt," Why, it could not be! This
was her brothers name, and he was
blind. She began to interro3ate the
man, AMI established the relationship
this brother that she had not seen
for years, and believed dead.
1t was a touching meeting, touch
ing except to the police, who arrest
ed the blind man for obstructinS the
traffic. The poor fellow had stood
There, III SCECt ol Sc.I
And they led him to the station, they
led his dog there, too; the faithful
little terrier that had been his COM
ranion and his close aid and COM
forter, year in and year out, in clear
and stormy weather, on the wind
swept bridge.
Next morning the harmless blind
man was released. He asked for his
dog. Give me my old friend he
said cit has been destroyed" said
authority, with harsh emphasis, in
his ear.
And now the blind man stays alone
on the bridge, his days only bright
ened by the occasional appearance of
his newIy-found sister. l think this
story belongs to the sad category

hood where it locates for the reason
that it makes adjacent property prices
higher. Fact. Inquire of the prices
close to a we'll kept stable and then
go a couple of blocks distant and price
property. 1t will be lower" New logic
this, and very queer, too, to say the
least. How many people will agree
with these arguments.

bed on the ends of their pencils, have
been discovered at the Normal Uni
versity here and their deadly play
things have been taken from them.
The pupils did not realize their dan
ger, they thought the pretty copper
cartridge shells. They did not realize
sudden death was in their toys. Pres
ident w. E. Garrison and the corps Of
teachers at the institution went care
fully, but hurriedly and thoroughly,
about the task of gathering in the
explosive as soon as the fact of it's
presence became known, and about a
quart of dynamite caps was collected.
Introduction of this potential death
instrument into the school has been
traced to a boy whose name is being
withheld. He says he found the caps
secreted under a stone, but did not
know what they were. Acting quick
ly, but very quietly, SO that there
would be no excitement to increase
the danger, Professor Garrison had
an investigation made and gradually
the pile of dynamite grew until there
was enough Of 1t on his desk to have
shattered the entire building. When
it was thought that all had been OBJ
tanned one little chap whispered the
name of another and exploration of
that youths pockets brought to light
the fact that he was a walking arsen-
al, a living Internal machine. About
half of the collection was obtained
from his clothing.
AS long as distribution of the dead
ly plaything was confined to boys
alone, nothing was, learned of its pres
ence, but when the girls began to get
hold of them, the facts soon came out.
"See what have here" said one little
girl, entering the office of President
Garrison. And he saw and acted.

without having been beaten by a man
of my own weight. That's a good
enough record for anybody to boast
of and it satisfies me right down to
the ground. That fruit farm of mine
at Fair Plain looks pretty good to me
and 1 am going to stick there. The
bad weather has put the fruit back a
little, but I guess everything will come
out all right.

and he was a heavyweight and not
even a middleweight. I never weighed
over 14S pounds in my life I claim
that 1 retire middleweight champion
but Of course that is not going to get
me anything. But I will claim 1t just
the same and see If I cannot make
somebody mad"
