HARVEST HAND HURT.
Henry Scher Drops Off Train and Is
Injured.

The first harvest hand accident
of the season occurred last night
when Henry Scher, a young man en-
route to the harvest fields, failed to
make proper connections with a
westbound Rock Island freight. He
fell from a side ladder and one foot
was painfully crushed under the
wheels. His partner, a boy about his
own age. 81, saw the accident, drop
ped off the train and assisted Scher
to town in search of medical atten
ton. The boys first came to the po-
lice station, but the police refused to
give them any assistance. In the mid
die of the night, DR.. Keith was called,
and sent DR.. Arnis to care for the in
jured boy. The wound was dressed,
and Scher taken to the Provident as
ISOLATION, where he will be cared for
until something can be done for him.
His partner who stuck to him is hus-
ting around in search of a job to pay
his expenses and care for Scher until
the latter is able to travel. Neither of
the boys are professional hoboes

MRS. DICKINSON ILL.
Founder of Kings Daughters Worries
Over a Lawsuit.

New York. June 19.-Mrs Mary
Low Dickinson. the venerable
authoress and founder of the Inter
national Order of Kings Daughters
is quite i'll at her home here. it was
announced today, following a lawsuit
in which a judgment of $4,000 was
given against her recently in favor of
Boston publishing house. The
friends of Mrs. Dickinson, learning of
her illness, because of worry over the
lawsuit, took uD the matter and as a
result a rehearing of the case has
been granted by the courts and is
scheduled to start on Monday. but it
is not likely that Mrs. Dickinson will
be able to leave her home then.
The suit was the outcome of mis-
understanding, the famous writer and
teacher having signed a contract to
purchase a de lux edition of for
eign authors and at the time she had
not thought that the price would be
any where near what was eventually
demanded.

said:

Pointed Paragraphs.

From the Chicago News.
Selfishness is the seed and sin is the
harvest.
Self adulation is one thing and self
respect is quite another.
The elevator is a BOON for men who
are in a hurry to reach the top.
Somehow when a nan gets into a
crowd he thinks he is the only one in
a hurry.
Most people wish a newly married
couple happiness as If they meant it.
There is no hope for the old bach
elor who can't induce even a widow to
marry him..
The pleasure a woman gets out of a
good cry has nothing in common with
her sense OF humor.
If one man doesn't do his full share
OF work in the world some other man
has TO cary two burdens.
After a girl has once made up her
mind to become a spinster she won't
change it-unless some man proposes.

A man can blame his wife at cards be-

II a woman ant fatter a man any

she can't.

to whip the children with a strap instead
of a club.
After a woman has prayed for every

about herself.
When the baby doesn't cry it's because
he has a heavenly disposition. When he
does. it's because he's a suffering little

Blind tiger is an Iowa name origi-

said last night at the Union depot. I'm
prohibition days, the bartender was
always anxious that no one should see
him sell liuqor. because if he was not
seen committing the act he could not
be prosecuted. In order to avoid be-
ing seen he was hidden behind a par
tition through which holes were cut.
The customer came up to the partition,
ordered his drink and threw his money
through the holes in a trough. The
bartender would gather up the money
and put the drink in the trough where
the customer would reach through the
hole for it. The place where liquor
was sold vas called a tiger When
a partition, or blind, hid the bartender

Seldom do we find wits among the
police lieutenants of this city. but one
in a south end station may be in a
class with George AIDE. Recently a
newly-made patrolman, doing his route
along the common, discovered the frog
pond to be overlooking.
1t seems that those I'm charge had
neglected to shut off the inlet nd as
a result the water trickled over the
edges.
Thinking that the matter should be
brought to the attention of his superior
officer. the rookie called the desk from
his next signal box. The conversation
ran somewhat like this:
Lieutenant, the frog pond is over
