SENSATION last Sunday night that re-
suited in murder, and to make
matters more complicated the man
who committed the crime has succeed
ed thus far in eluding the officers who
have been set on his trail Mrs. Ed.
Roose. one OF Odebolt's housewives,
had occasion to go to the cob house
Sunday evening for fuel, and just
inside the door she discovered the
form of man apparently asleep.
She let the matter rest until her hus-
band came home some hours later
when she informed him of the in
truder's presence in the coal house.
Mr.. Roose went down and hunted up
the nightwatch and together the two
men got the supposedly intoxicated
man out of the coal house and took
him to the city Jail. Here. upon tax
ing his hand from under the man s
head. the marshal discovered that
his hand was covered with blood, and
upon investigation found that the back
of the mans skull had been crushed.
A physician was summoned and the
injured man given every possible at
tention during Sunday night and
Monday forenoon. but he remained
unconscious. He had, however. gone
too far and become so weak that
surgical aid could do him no good
and Monday night he passed away
without recovering consciousness His
clothes were searched and an envelop
addressed to Goodwin You'll was found
that disclosed his identity, the letter
being from his parents who reside
in Liberty, New York. They were
notified and an answer received ask
ing that everything possible be done
for the boy and that they would at
once start for Odebolt. After it was
found that You'll had been dangerous

gan to look for his companion who
had accompanied him to Odeboit. but
it was found that he had disappeared

SAVED BY THE MUD.
Exciting Elephant Adventure In tho
Heart Of Africa.

0eafI OF africa.
During a hunting trip in Africa A.
Henry Savage Landor had a narrow
escape from two elephants which he
was stalking. He had got to within
ten yards of the male elephant and.
taking careful aim. pulled the trigger.

at the same moment with his match
lock- We were such a short distance
from the animal that he actually hit
him in the head. l shall never forget
my surprise when the elephant lifted
his trunk skyward and in his fury
roared like thunder.
A moment later the elephant, with
his trunk extended. dashed after us. l,
too. with my useless rifle in my hand,
having by that time acquired a high
rate of speed.
Had l been running a race for the
worlds record am sure should have
how fast l could run, as l confess my
blood turned perfectly cold when
could feel the hoarse blowing trunk Of
the elephant only few rods behind
me. and l expected every minute to be
crushed into a jelly.
In that particular part of the country
these marshy plains are extraordinarily
sticky and slushy. so the moment l
dashed into the grass at the record
breaking speed at which l was travel
ing my feet stuck in the soft and slushy
mud. and l was precipitated with my
face and hands in the slush, my rifle
sinking deep.
This was the supreme moment of ap-
prehension. L said goodby to the world
and imagined myself dead. No one
could have been more surprised than
was when, a reasonable time to be
killed in having elapsed l got up again

GOLD MADNESS.
A Passion For Literally ReveIing In
the Yellow Metal

A Passion For Literally ReveIing In
the Yellow Metal.
A singular passion for literally revel-
ing in gold is exhibited now and then
by men who have suddenly become
rich. Some years ago a London jour-
nalist who had specialized in railroad
stocks netted $4,000 as the result of
lucky venture. Drawing it in gold, the
fortunate man repaired to hotel, emp
tied the bags of gold in the bed and
went to sleep literally in the sands of
Pactolus. The man was SO craZed by
his good fortune that he found indie
scribable pleasure in reveling in
golden bath.
Paganini, the violinist. when he re-
ceived the proceeds of his concerts-he
insisted upon being paid in gold-used
to wash his hands in sovereigns.
A French novelist, Soulie. wrote a
book entitled 1.-The Memoirs of the
Devil" 1t took. The publishers paid
him for the first volume $4,000 in gold.
The author carried the gold to his bed
room, poured it into footbath and en-
joyed for half an hour the excitement
| of moving his feet to and fro in bath
| Of gold coins. smoking meanwhile the
| biggest Of Havanas.
A Boston merchant Of great wealth,
believing certain symptoms indicated
that he would become insane. consulted
specialist and, under his advice, b,
came an inmate of a sprivate asylum
For twelve years there his recreation
was piling up gold coins and then
knocking them over. At times he
washed his hands in gold eagles and
half eagles. At the end of the long Sc
clusion he returned to his counting
room and in twelve months confirmed
the theroughness Of his recovery by
amassing $500. OOO.-St Louis Republic

Several Of the lighthouses on the
coast of America and some. the writer,

above, which are rung at certain inter-i
walls, each lighthouse having differenti
number Of beats. SO that any particu-l
lar lighthouse is distinguished by ftst-
bell. just as in clear weather it is dis
tinguished by the arrangement Of its.
lights. An approaching ship can tell
within a very close approximation. ash
mathematicians would say, how it lies,
with regard to the lighthouse. because
the bell will be heard Ioudest in thatl
microphOne on the side of the ship on
which the lighthouse is. and the officer,
of the watch can steer accordingly. !,
All ships carry a red light at night,
on the left hand. or port. side and a
green light on the right hand. or star.
board side. while all steamers carry
in aGditiozs white light showing on
both s4S>. Neither Of the lights can
be seen astern or for some distance
toward the bows, the limit being what
sailors call two points abaft the beam,
a little astern of her middle point so
that when approaching a ship from
astern nc lights are visible to the APP
preaching ship. but her full lights are
visible from the ship approached.
When two ships are approaching
each other from opposite directions end
on, each ship will see the others two
Or three lights and can easily steer to
keep out of each others way. There
is a simple rule for this, and incidental.
~ it may be mentioned that the dan.
ger is least in this case. provided that
both ships are properly handled. Tbs
danger of collision arises principally
from ships crossing each other, and for
this also there are simple rules gov
erned by what is called the rule of the.
road. Leaving out the question of sail
ing ships for the moment. the ship
which has the other, the crossing ship,
on her own right hand (starboard) side
has to keep out of the way, and it does
| so by turning slightly to the right, or
to starboard, presenting her left side
to the other ship
| Whenever a ship has to give way TIC
another the color of the light of the,
other ship is on the same side as that
to which the helm must be moved!
| Thus when a red light is seen on the
right hand (starboard) side the helm
is put to port. the side of the light
seen. Similarly when a sailing ship is
crossing from port to starboard, show-t
ing her green light. that carried on her
starboard side. the steamer puts her.
helm to starboard to clear. This rule
could be followed quite as easily With,
sound signals.

REMOVE IHE CAUSE
How to Remedy Much of the
Suffering in Barton.

HOW 20 hemcOy Much OF the
Suffering in Barton.
The only way to cure the attacks Of
Indigestion that are 80 common in
Barton is by using Mi-o-na stomach
tablets. They remove the cause of
indigestion, strengthen the muscles of
the stomach and bowels, and restore
the whole digestive 81 stem to health
and strength.
When the stomach is weak there
is Indigestion, fafulence, dizziness,
headaches, sleeplessness and many
other disagreeable symptoms. The
only remedy that can be relied upon
absolutely to cure this condition is
Mi-o-na, for it removes the cause
and restores health 90 IL at all food is
easily digested without pain or suf-
fering.
Led D. Pierce sells Mi-o-na under

money unless it cures. Try 5O-cent

does in strengthening the digestion.

THE BELL IN THE SEA
How Ocean Liners Hear Their
Way In Thick Weather.
FOG SIGNALS UNDER WATER.

Method by Which the Submerged
Gong Is Operated and the Apparatus
by Which tho Sound Is Picked Up
Miles Away-Port and Starboard
Lights.
To those who 60 down to the sea in
ships probably no discovery in recent
times has been of more importance or
tends more to save life than that OF
the possibility of signaling from ship
to ship and from ship to shore by
sound, writes Sidney F. Walker in the
London Mail. 1t literally, when fully
developed, will enable steamers to
''hear' their way under all conditions
of weather and particularly in fog just
as we'll as they now see their way on
clear nights by the aid of the lights
that each ship carries and those dis
tributed round the coast of every civ
ilized country.
The whole apparatus hinges upon
the fact that water is a good conduct
or of sound. The readiest example
of this of which the writer is aware is
to be found usually at mineral baths.
There is nearly always pumping going
on in connection with the baths, bet
under ordinary conditions the pump is
not heard. When undressing, for in
stance, to enter the bath one can very
rarely hear the pump, but Immediately
one is in the bath if one places ones
head under water the pump is almost
painfully evident. and an engineer
could easily count the strokes had he
watch at hand
For signaling purposes a bell is en-
ployed, immersed some distance under
the water and inclosed in chamber,
the hammer being worked by COM
pressed air operated from the surface.
The sound of the strokes on the bell
is transmitted to distance of several
miles and can be heard by suitable ap.
paratus. The hearing apparatus con-
sistS of micrOphOne, modification
of that we use every time we speak to
the telephone, inclosed in chamber
inside the ship and connected with the
bridge by wires in the usual way
The microphone chamber is filed with
a special liquid which the inventors
have found to answer the purpose
best. and there are, as at present ar
ranged, one chamber and one micro
phone on each bow below the water
line. In the chart house on the bridg,
are a pair of telephone receivers. sim

the burrowing owl. which lives in the
burrows of the prairie dog, often, it is

they passed the spot it gave warning
