We will now consider the relations of
Ibsen with the Greek tragedians, more
especially with regard to the unities of
time, place aud blugginess. 1t is gen.
orally held that when it comes to a
showdown, Ibsen has Sophoc es beaten
to frazz e The p evalence of pa
ranygmphic chemi-distiches in the works
of the Greeks las been so frequently
depIored in this Circle, their preference
for dlthyrambic anti-He eyelianisms so
often ridiculed, that it will hardly be
nee ssary to add anything more on that
head. 1t is indead painful subject.

There Is n special kind Of woodpecker

cactus known as the candle cactus he
will perceive at some height from the

It made an opening just large enough

Rabbits make their homes in the

not appreciate the defensive properties

Boyer Says Overland is Great Car
and Marion Should Get FsctOry-
The Story.

The merits of the great Overland
Automobile which will perhaps be
manufactured in this city In the
near future are portrayed in u
communication received by Mrs.
John Boyer of Bellefontaine avenue
from her husband who is AN ageno
for the Huber company at Stuttgart,
Arkansas.
Mr.. Boyer states in his letter
he had the pleasure of riding in a
fine Overland touring car last week.
1--WE were spinning gayly along a
fine pike when we met a man driv-
ing one-horse wagon. We darted
TO one side and back into the road.
narrowly averting clipping off the
rear end OF the wagon. Our return
TO the road was 50 sudden that we
did not see that there was a cow
tied to the rear part Of the vehicle.
1t was too late TO avoid the COW
so we simply run over her. Tho
car passed madly over her body
and came to halt. We expected
that the COW would be killed but
she hobbled TO her feet and ran
after. the wagon We also expected
that the machine would be smashed
but 1t ran just as nicely afterward
as ball bearing pedal on a bicy-
Gle"
Now MIR. Boyer has concluded
from the incident and Marion people
viii be unanimous IN opinion that
an automobile that can run over
cow without killing her, without
breaking the machinery and withom
injuring the occupants, surely must
be some car.
Mr. Boyer Furthermore stated in
his communication that there are a
number of Overland cars in Arlkan-
sas and that the Overland Is con-
sidered great machine.

Not all the worlds strong men have

Indeed, instances might he multiplied
in which the feats OF professionals
have been equaled or excelled.
Charles Louvier, carpenter of Paris,
found 1t child's play to roll tin basin
between his fingers into cylinder.
On one occasion he carried off SOL
dler on guard who had gone to sleep
In the sentry box and deposited both
the box and the soldier on n low

Another man who sometimes found
his great strength a source of amuse-

took 1t up and broke 1t In half, saying,
Pardon me. but | have given you a

offered him. He broke that and five

II Is related Of certain candidate
for office in certain Kansas campaign
that he billed himself for n speech In

October day and wrote ahead TO
number of friends there to give him
"tips."
One Of them told him to see cer-

this negro" wrote the friend, you can
get the vote of tue whole negro popu-

About the first thing the candidate
did after registering at the hotel was
t. look up this negro 1t was only
little while after the introduction that
he was calling the negro by his given
name, filing bis pockets with cigars,
passing him compliments and general
ly "givtng him the toffy." The negro
took Il all and enjoyed the occasion
immensely The candidate spent sew
eral hours In the negro's company and
after he thought the proper degree OF
warmth bad been obtained broached
the real object of his friendship:
"Say, John, want the negro vote OF
this town"
"All right" replied John. "rll vote

Another South American arose from
his deck chair, extended his hand and
as the men shook hands inquired after
the health Of the newcomer, his wife
aud his children.
AS they had parted company only
about eight hours before in the smok-
ing room, this seemed like unnecessary
courtesy. The observer noticed that

man about II.
