THE MYSTERY
OF LIFE
BY Jewell Hawkes..


Man is. at best, an unsatisaed
creature. Instinct makes him an in
vestigator. He is curiosity personi-
fed He is forever seeking new fields
to conquer He is continually delving
into the unknown. Nothing so fas-
cindtes him as the undiscovered. Mys-
terry is the very essence of his exist
ence.
John Thornton was standing before
the disordered litter of his laboratory
table. So intent was he that the very
roar of the rain on the windows
seemed sacrifice. 1t was a terrifying
night; nature seemed in the very
throes of a new birth But Thornton
did not heed it. His face was set; his
muscles rigid; his whole frame trem-
bled under the strain of his intense
anxiety. This was the browning point
of his life Years of hard, relentless
effort stretched behind him His very
existence, it seemed, was being tried
in the crucible of the moment. Here
was passing the mystery of life and
death. If the experiment failed-but
ii could not fail Yet if he were mis-
taken-the very thought made him
almost groan with agony. The flash OF
his eager eyes told of his determine
ton to win.
Before him lay the enigma OF life;
could he solve it? A cold sweat broke
out on his body. Again he bent over
his experiment. Did it begin to show
signs of life or was it but an inert
mass? The thing moved! Could it
be? Was he going mad? Feverishly,
he tried test after test. 1t responded
t. all. Surely, it must be alive. Yet
he could scarcely believe it. Life IT.
self had answered his touch. The
secret of creation was his. He was akin
to the gods. With a wild, eXultant
cry, he fell senseless to the floor.

COMPLAINANT GOT THE WORST
OF IT. sSsss

Michael Heigl OF Buchanan was ex-.
amined for insanity in the probate
court last Friday, which developed iii
disclosing that Heikl. who is q years
Of age, has full use Of his reason, and
that his wife and step-son were simply
trying to get rid of him. His step
sons name, by the way, was Still
macher, and not Bell, under which
name he had made complaint against
his step-father. The examination
also brought out the fact that Still
macher was the trouble maker and got
Heigl and his wife into bitter
quarrels.
Heigl later had Slllmacher arrested
on the charge Of assault and battery,
and the latter was placed IN the
county jail. HIS mother did all she
could to get him out but to no avail,
and she was forced to return home
with her husband without the young
man. Saturday morning Stillmacher
was found guilty of the charge pre-
ferred against him in Justice Gerrltz 8
court and was fined $50 and costs or
serve sixty days IN the county bastile
On his promise to leave the county,
sentence was suspended, and he has
gone, supposedly to Montana, where
he has relatives.

= PORK BARREL GONE
Supreme Court Kills Road
and Bridge Appropri-
alton Bill

St Paul, July 9.-The supreme
court this morning handed down an
unanimous decision to the effect that
the state road and bridge appropria.
tion in the amount of $500, 600 per
year, better known as the ''Pork
Barrell'' was and is unconstitutional.
This will probably mean that what
ever moneys may be appropriated by
the legislature hereafter for road and
bridge purposes Will be handled and
distributed by the melnb ers of the
state highway commission instead of
the members of the state legislature
as has been the case heretofore.
The decision was not unlocked for.
though 1t comes as a. disappointment
to a large number OF Legislators.
Proceedings against the appropriation
were started some SIX weeks ago by
Senator Cooke IN the Ramsey county
district court, which held the act to
be unconstitutional. The supreme
court now affrms that decision.
