HEROINE
ON THE T0LOSAN
WIFE OF THE CAPTAIN WAS
ABOARD DURING STEAMER ,
HURRICANE EXPERIENCES.

When the Norwegian steamship Adj
miral Borresen came in here on No
vember 10 with a tale of tidal wave
there was woven in the story she had
to tell the romance of the presence OF
the captains wife aboard and how,
lust before the tidal wave struck the
big freighter, the master descended
from the bridge to bid his wife tenn
porary farewell until they should meet
beyond" for it was firmly believed
the ship was going down.
"Au revoir" said the wife as the
captain moved for the door after kiss
ing her. Then the monster wave hit
and there was a swirling food in what
almost proved death trap.
Like the Broresen the TOlosan, yes
terday came in, sufferer from fear
full storms and. like the Borresen's
master her captain was accompanied
by his wife.
Liks Mrs. Winsnes of the Borresen,
Mrs. Frank of the Solosan, through all
! the ocean terrors was as calm as tn
elements were angry She, too, believ-
ed the ship was doomed and was hap,
DIV that she was aboard, and moi
ashore some great way off to wait and
pray and wait for news of her hus'
bands ship she might never hear. She
was content 10 be with him and to e
down with him.
Such are the women who go dowr
to the sea in ships with the men the!
love.
ut is best that a captain SHOULD
carry his wife" say the captain
ashore, for what greater incentiv
has he to bring his vessel safe out o
the storm.

three brand new weddings and one
wedding anniversary were celebrated
within twelve hours Two sons and
a daughter of Mrs Schuck entered
upon matrimonial alliances, and an
other daughter celebrated the tenth
anniversary of her marriage. There
was something doing in the Schuck

Schuek did not take part in any of
the festivities, being unable to come
from her home in Germany Jacob
Schuck and Miss Rose Bruen were

Lost Popularity of BiIliards,

Are billiards dying out, and are
motoring and golf killing them? In
1894 the French treasury returns
noted $4,000 billiard tables in the
country. This year the figure is only
$4,000. The treasury laments the
fact, not from any disinterested love
for the grand old game, but because
every billiard table pays heavy tax.
Motoring, of course, contributes it's
full share to the inland revenue here
as well as elsewhere, but SO far the
royal and ancient pastime, which is
quite new here, pays nothing to the
State. However, that may come in
due course, and golf clubs, balls,
caddies and links may be taxed to
make up for the shrinkage in billiard
tables.-Paris Correspondence Lon

SWAN IN A HAIL or BULLETS
Aged Lawyer Escaped Tennessee
Night Riders.
Dived Into Reelfoot Lake While
Lynchers Planned His Death and
Got Away without Wound.

Tiptonville, Tenn.-Colonel R. z.
Taylor, who was taken from Walnut
Log, Tenn, at night by Night Riders
and who, it was feared, had been
murdered, as was Captain Rankin,
his law partner, arrived here unhurt
but suffering from shock and the
hardships of two days in the woods
without food.
Colonel Taylor said that after the
mob had hanged Rankin and had
rtddled his body with bullets there
was some discussion among them as
to what should be done with Taylor
Some wanted to hang him and shoot
him up, but others thought it might
serve their purpose better to hold him
as hostage until they could exact a
promise that Reelfoot Lake should
be free fishing water.
: While the discussion was going on
Taylor, who is nearly seventy years
old, but spry as much younger man,
was left unattended a few feet away
Suddenly >an inspiration came to
the old man. Knowing that most of
the mobs pistols had been emptied
into Rankin's body he decided to
make a break for freedom. He was
standing near deep arm Of Reelfoot
Lake about fifty yards across and
very deep. No sooner had he con-
ceived the idea than he dived into
the water and, swimming below the
surface, came up near a log not far
from the opposite bank He hid be-
hind this log and escaped the first
volley that was fired at him. Then
he ducked again and did not come up
again till he was almost at the shore.
Hundreds of shots were fired, but
there was little light to guide the
Night Riders aim and not one of the
bullets hit him. Reaching the shore
he got behind stump, where he re-
mained till the shooting ceased
Then he made as good time as he
could through the forest.
When daylight came he got his
bearings from the sun, but was afraid
to return to Walnut Log for fear he
would be captured again. Turning
toward the west, he made his way to
the cabin of woodman. where he
got food and rested until morning,
when he came here.
He left for his. home in Trenton,
having sent word to his family that
he was safe.
81 guess the world will regard me
as lucky, but after all simply played
a trick that any one in the heat of
battle with the odds against him
might play" was the modest state
ment made by Colonel Taylor He
said he learned some of his tricks in
the Civil War, at which time he had
some experience with sharpshooters.

BEGINNING OF PRINTING IN .. S.
First Press Erected in Philadelphia
in the Year 1856.

The first printing-press made in
the United States came from the shop
of Adam Ramage, in Philadelphia,
about 1795, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph. In 1910 there were two
printing-press factories in Philadel-
phia, reporting products valued at
$4,000, and two manufactures of
hydraulic engines, reporting products
valued at $4,000.
The first printing-press in Penn
sylvania was erected in Philadelphia
in 1856, four years after the first
English settlement was made in the
colony. The publication of maga-
zines and other periodicals was at
tempted by Franklin as early as 1741.
In 1910 it was estimated that half a
million volumes were printed annual
ly in Philadelphia.
For fifty years after the Revolution
the city was first in the printing in
dustry, the first daily paper in the
United States having been established
there in 1884 Shortly after the be-
ginning of the century one hundred
and ten wooden presses were in oper-
alton in Philadelphia larger num-
ber than in any other English-speak-
ing city in the world except London
The growth of book publishing
was promoted by annual fairs and
auction sales established in 1902 by
the American Company of Book
sellers, and held for while alter
nately in New York and Philadelphia.
In 1910 seventy-three newspapers
were published in Pennsylvania,
eight of which were daily papers
a larger number than was published
in New York State at that time.
In 1917 the Columbian, hand
press, was invented by George Cly-
mer, c& Pennsylvania, and was intro
duced in the following year in Eng
land, where it remained in use until
1860. 1t was the first press built in
the United States capable of printing
both sides Of newspaper at once.
In 1900 there were in Philadelphia
six hundred and twenty-five estab-
lishments engaged in the printing
and publishing business, representing
a capital invested of $23,020,333,
whose products had total valuation
of $23,44S,875.

ASTONISHED THE DOCTOR
Old Lady Got Well With Change OF
Food.

A great scientist has. said we can
put off "old age" If we can only nour-
ish the body properly
To do this the right kind Of food,
of course, is necessary. The body
manufactures poisons in the stomach
and intestines from certain kinds Of
food stuffs and unless sufficient of the
right kind is used. the injurious ele-
ments overcome the good.
my grandmother, II years old, ;"
writes N. Y. lady, had been an in
valid for IS years from what was
called consumption of the stomach
and bowels. The doctor had given
her up to die.
Il saw so much about Grape-Nuts
that / persuaded grandmother to try
it. She could not keep anything on
her stomach for more than few min
utes.
"She began Grape-Nuts with only a
teaspconful. AS that did not distress
her and as she could retain it, she
took little more until she could take
all of four teaspoonfuls at meal
Then she began to gain and grow
strong and her trouble in the stomach
was gone entirely. She got to enjoy
good health for one so old, and we
know Grape-Nuts saved her life.
THE doctor was astonished that
instead of dying she got well, and
without drop of medicine after she
began the Grape-Nuts." There's a

WARDEN AND A INDIANS KILLED.
Arrest For Killing Deer Lead to a
Battle With Flatheads.

dead, as result of fight between
Deputy Peyton and his assistant,
Herman Rudolph, and a band of Flat
head Indians, near Hollands prairie,
on Swan River.
Peyton and Rudolph were attempt
ing to arrest the Indians for hunting
without a license and killing deer in
excess of the number permitted by
law. Peyton went to the camp of the
Indians and told them that they must
accompany him to Missoula. Without
warning they fired on the deputy with
rifles. The fire was returned by Pey-
ton and Rudolph.
