Intervention came in good time, for it would not have been long before the sinewy hands of the giant Jack Offord would have cut off the wind of Dennis Hannafan, and "his name would have been Dennis indeed. The victor in the indoor battle was placed in the sweat box, which is ab solutely guaranteed to remove any de- sire to fight in one hours time. The other combatant, who had his temper sufficiently cooled during the course of the final argument, was allowed to remain alone in the large cell, free from any fear of further molestation, and apparently joyful that the combat was not to be renewed.

SPIRITED ARGUMENT
 BETWEEN TWO MINERS
Manifestation of Excessive Pugnacity Results in Station House Sequestra- tion

The manifestation of an excessive spirit of pugnacity last evening brought to grief or, at least, into the strong hands of the law two members of the mining fraternity An exact statement of the differences of the belligerents could not be learned. the fact alone being known that, after a short argument in front of the Hotel Adams, they ceased to exchange words and made blows the medium by which they hoped to settle the subject of de- bate or, at least, to reach some con- clusion upon which both should be agreed.
 After a short fistic argument, in which both suffered slight wounds, they clinched and went to the side walk. At this iuncture the combat ants were separated by bystanders and were escorted to the city bastile by Officer Connors. They were placed in a locked corridor, it being thought that the fact of their incarceration would be sufficient to cool their blood and to prevent any further manifesto tions of warlike dispositions. A short argument which begun when the door was locked was stopped by the officers. And the belligerents were left behind locked doors to reconcile their differ cnces.

 General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because it's com ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.
 In supplying that demand with its ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co., proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for it's remark able success.
 That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the We'll Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine-manufactu by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

AND BRIEF, POINTED POEMS
A Gingerbread Barometer

a clever Frenchman who has original
ideas on most subjects employs a kind
OF barometer that may safely be called
unique, says Science Siftings. 1t is
nothing more or less than the figure
of warlike general made of ginger
bread. which the Frenchman hangs by a
string attached to a nail at an appro-
pirate place in his dwelling. Ginger
bread. as everyone knows. is easily af-
fected by changes IN the atmosphere
The slightest moisture renders it soft;
in dry weather, on the contrary. tt
grows hard and tough. Every morning
on going out the Frenchman asks his
servant, What does the general say:"
and the man applies his thumb TO the
gingerbread figure. Sometimes he re-
plies. The general feels habby about
the chest; he would advise monsieur
taking an umbrella" On the other
hand, when the generals symptoms are
hard and unyielding." the Frenchman
sallies forth arrayed in his best. with
no fears for his spotless suit or his
new hat. He says the general has
so far never proved unworthy OF the
confidence placed in his prOgnostica-
tions.

Indians as Track Laborers

" S section laborers the American In
n dian is claimed TO equal the best
OF the foreign laberers. such as the
Italians, Greeks. Austrians and Mace
domains, the nationalities from which
are drawn nearly all the track laborers
used in the United States. Not only is
the Indian claimed to be an equal Of
the foreign product but superior to all
laborers as far as tractability and will
ingness are concerned.
The Indians always obey any
reasonable command exercised by
proper authority. and no interpreter is
required to make them know what
is wanted, as they understand signs
nearly as easily as white man
understands words
1t has only been in recent years that
an opportunity has been given this
race of people to demonstrate its
ability in the various fields of skilled
or unskilled labor. For many years In
dians were not even considered worthy
or possessed OF the ability or intel
ligence to perform the most simple
kinds of manual labor.

GOOD STORIES IN FEW WORDS
The StOOkumpf

Down in the poller once we saw a face

En- was so scared! en- had just lots
of fun.
En- once we chased little weeny mouse

The stookumpf growls en- ruffles up his

En- when she plays up on the other

It sounds as if the stookumpf kind of
cried.
En- once the Stookumpf put his big frint

Right on the p'anno en- he give a squeal

Mercy

The quality OF mercy is not strained;
1t droppeth as the gentle rain from
heaven
Upon the place beneath. It is twice
blessed:
II bIesseth him that gives. and him that
'Tis mightiest in the hightiesa: it be-
The throned monarch better than his
crown
His scepter shows the force of temporal
power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear OF
kings;
But mercy is above this sceptered sway.
1t is enthroned in the hearts OF kings,
1t is an attribute to God himself;
An earthly power doth then show
likest Gods
When mercy seasons justice. Think OF
this,
That. in the course of justice. none Of US
Should see salvation. We do pray for
mercy;
And that same prayer doth teach US all
to render
The deeds OF mercy.
William Shakespeare.

Two Enormous LOaves of Bread

1t has always been habit Of bakers
as far back as the chronicles OF the
profession go and that means hundreds
of years, to, turn out loaves Of bread
or other productions of their skill in
extraordinary shapes and sizes, as a
means of drawing attention. The pub
lie has never grown tired of this kind
of advertising and it generally repays
the baker.
Two huge loaves of bread were made
recently by North Dakota baker on
the occasion of a harvest festival
Each loaf measured feet inches in
length and they weighed 1S5 and 145
pounds respectively.

Epitaph on a Robin Redbreast

Tread lightly here. for here. It's said
When piping winds are hush'd around.
A small note wakes from underground.
Where now his tiny bones are laid.
Nor more in lone or leafiess groves
With ruffied wing and faded breast.
His friendless. homeless spirit rOves;
Gone TO the world where birds are
blest,
Where never cat glides DER the green.
Or schoolboy's giant form Is seen;
But love and joy and smiling spring
Inspire their little souls TO sing
