DR.. W. B. Riley. Baptist minister,
of Minneapolis, also said that
there was a strong disposition on the
part Of women not to bear children
because it interfered with their social
and commercial affairs In life.
Women" he said, "are becoming
more independent owing to the num-

them, consequently they do not want
to saddle themselves with home bur
dens or family ties that will interfere
with their commercial or social am

Five of Family Drowned.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Fort Collins, July 3rd, says: The
tragic ending to a family fishing par
ty came this afternoon when the faith
er, mother and three children were
drowned in Reservoir No. 5 of the
North Poudre Irrigation Company,
two miles west of Wellington.
The dead are: George Henry Full
Ter, aged thirty-eight; Mrs. Minnie
Jane Fuller, aged thirty-three; Ellen
Fuller, fourteen, Gladys Marie, twelve;
John, ten.
Each gave life for the other. All
were seated along the bank of the res
ervoir, close to the intake, fishing. In
reaching forward, in her eagerness to
grasp a fish which had just been
pulled from the water, one of the
daughters, Gladys, lost her balance
and fell in. 1t was in trying to res
cue her that the others came to their
deaths.
Two other children, Everett, aged
eight, and Kenneth, aged three, were
sitting on the high bank and saw their
parents, sisters and brother drown.
Wailing and crying, the elder of the
two waited for some time after his rel
atives had disappeared, then started
for help. With rare presence of mind
for child of his years, he hitched the
family horse and placing his little
brother in the wagon, drove to Wei
lington as fast as he could, where a
large party was soon collected and
drove to the spot.
Fuller and his family lived five miles
north of Waverly, on leased ranch

HOW THE PYRAMIDS WERE BUILT
Theory That Explains Expenditure Of
Time and Labor.

No one has been able to decide how
the enormous stones in the pyramids
were handled; for, even allowing for
the vast army of men. some sort of
mechanical contrivance must have
been used.
Or theory is that as each course
of stone was laid a sand embankment
was built around 1t with long, easy
slopes SO that the stones for the next
course could be pushed on rollers
and slid into place, without any actual
lifting, and so on, the pyramid being
in fact buried as fast as it was built,
until the top was reached, when the
stupendous job Of removing the sand
embankment was commenced.
This might account for the vast
army of laborers used; for instance,
1t is said that In building the great
pyramid of Cheops 100000 men were
employed for 30 years, although the
quarry from which the stone was OBJ
tained was nearly 5000 feet from the
pyramid.-Engineering Magazine.

At IA years of age Admiral Sir Peter

themselves attracted by pretty Lady Ara

lain steals an heiress against her will,
he incurs the extreme penalty of the
law"
Yes" replied Lady Hawkshaw. II
dare say you think the law will deal
by Giles Vernon as it did by poor Jack
Bassett, whom you got transported for
life for killing a hare which was al
ready half dead; or as it served Tobias
Clark, the blacksmith, whom you got
hanged for stealing one of your sheep"
These things were true, and the
crowd gave three loud groans for Sir
Thomas Vernon. Before he could get
his breath to reply. Lady Hawkshaw
continued:
No wonder you are afraid to sleep
without candles burning in your room
all night Sir Thomas"
Sir Thomas ground his teeth, and
called:
Back your horses, coachman, and
drive out"
But the crowd would by no means
and shouts resounded OF: Good for
your ladyship! Hawkshaw forever!"
Sir Peter lay back laughing while
Daphne, by way of encouraging the
people, clapped her hands and kissed
Lady Hawkshaw on the cheek.
And let me tell you. Sir Thomas, y
continued that excellent and indomt.
able woman, that because no woman
could ever be induced to elope with
you, there is no reason why runaway
marriages should not be the happiest
in the world. l defied my family and
as good as ran away with Sir Peter
Hawkshaw, and he was as poor as
Giles Vernon; but, like him, he was
true and gallant gentleman. and God
bless the day l married him!"
At this there was tremendous cheer
Ing for Sir Peter, and he took off his
hat and bowed, kissing Lady Hawk
shaw's hand.
Sir Thomas responded by calling out
airily:
May I ask your ladyship II Sir
Peter was free agent in the affair OF
your marriage? for l believe he is moi
generally held accountable for his
actions since that day."
Sir Peters eyes flashed at that, but
Lady Hawkshaw cried back:
Right you are, Sir Thomas, fol-
have him l would. and II he had moi
agreed to marry me should have died
Of disappointment. Nor has he beer
a free agent since that day-not fol
