refused second-class rates to papers
sent to subscribers who were more
than a year i'm arrears. This ruling

his worse than useless magazine to
country publishers free for use as a
magazine section of their publications.

A. j. Harnden related a strange story
TO the Exposition Thursday, but which
nevertheless is true. He was driving
two miles south of Valley Centre when
he came upon the charred remains of
a buggy. A man by the name of
Leach had been at Brown City and got

asleep, his pipe falling among the blan
kets and lighting them. When he
woke up he found himself near his
house, in burning buggy. His trous-

fiercely blazing. But for the timely
assistance of his son who saw his aw-

him he would have burned to death.
The horse was quickly unhitched aud
the can Of kerosene thrown from the
buggy. Mr.. Leach was severely burned
