Miracle.

" Once, while Bishop Talbot, the
giant cowboy bishop" was attend
ing a meeting of church dignitaries
in st. Paul, a tramp accosted a group
of churchmen in the hotel porch and
asked for aid.
NO" one of them told him, 'Tm
afraid we can't help you. But you
see that big man over there?" point
ing to Bishop Talbot. "Well, he's
the youngest bishop of us all, and
he's a very generous man. You
might try him.
The tramp approached Bishop Tai
bot confidently. The others watched
with interest. They saw a look of
surprise over the tramp's face. The
bishop was talking eagerly. The
tramp looked troubled. And then,
finally, they saw something pass
from one hand 10 the other. The
tramp tried to stink past the group
without speaking, but one of them
called to him.
"Well, did you get something from
our young brother?"
The tramp grinned sheepishly.
mo" he admitted, 81 gave him a
dollar for his damned new cathedral
at Laramie" -Eyerybody's Maya

only the very gentlest bowel medi-
Icine should ever be given, except in
emergency cases. Ordinary pills, ca

We personally recommend and

ltirely new ingredient which is odor-
less, tasteless and colorless. As an
active agent, it embraces the valuable
qualities of the best known intestinal

''Rexall OrdeYlies are eaten like
candy. They are particularly prompt
and agreeable in action, may be
taken at any time, day or night; do
not cause dlarrhoea, nausea, gripping,
excessive looseness or other undesira-
bic effects. They have a very natural
action upon the glands and organs
with which they come in contact, act
as a positive and regulative tonic
upon the relaxed muscular coat OF
the bowel and its dry mucous lining;
Iremove irritation, overcome weak
ness, tone and strengthen the nerves
land muscles. and restore the bowels
and associate organs TO more vlgor-
Ious and healthy activity.
Rexall Order,ies completely relieve
constipation, except when Of a surgi-
cal character. They also tend to
overcome the necessity OF constantly
taking laxatives to keep the bowels
in normal condition.

X-Ray Finds Trouble.

Inc surgeons were unable 10 make
a complete examination Saturday
night on account of his critical con-
Idition, and opinions varied as to
whether the blow on the spine or on
the. solar plexus caused the paralysis.
But an X-ray rtespgraph taken af-
ter death revealed theN 'islocation be-
tween the first and secoad servical
|vertebrae, causing the first vertebrae
to be thrown forward. prying against
and probably resulting in the paraly-
sis of those nerve centers of the me-
dulla oblongata, which govern the res
piratory muscles.
Byrne's father bore the shock of
the fatality with fortitude. but was
plainly laboring under great mental
anguish when he came to the little
railroad station at the foot of the
hin to meet Mrs. Byrne, mother Of
the victim.
Funeral Today.
The funeral services will be held
in the Catholic chapel at the post
where the body was taken this after
noon. A cadet guard has been posted
at the chapel and details of young
soldiers will watch over the body I'M
til after the services. The funeral
will be conducted with full military
honors.
Taken to the Cadet hospital. skill
led surgeons, working with relays OF
capable attendants, labored over
Byrne throughout the night. Con-
scious at times, he realized the Sc
robustness of his condition, as the ply
|sicians and nurses kept at their task
and with a smile and an occasional
cheering word encouraged them in
their labors. He faced death un-
flnchingly and was only thoughtful
for his grief stricken father who was
with him when the end came.
Was Acting Captain.
Young Byrne was only 81 years
old. but was a veteran of the Army
football team and popular with his
classmates and officers. lie was act
ing as captain of the team and he
gave his life struggling on the field
for the honor of the army.
Byrne was injured in a mass play
on the tackle. Standing vallantly as
left tackle, for the Army, Byrne was
forced under the rush of Harvard
players and in falling must have had
his head twisted into position
where the weight OF the men piling
upon him was greater than the
strong ligaments of the vertebral
could stand.
Following the accident to ByrneI
the cadet corps grasped with appre-
hensiye agitation at the similarity be-
tween the mishap to Byrne and tn
recent injury to Earl Wilson, at An
napolis.
'If Byrne dies IL will kill football
for both West Point and Annapolis"
was the frequent remark heard on
the grounds.
Col. Scott Reticent.
Col. Scott, superintendent of the
academy, would not discuss the mat
ter at first, but finally said:
"This is the first serious accident

years football has been played here. |

OTHER DEATHS AND INJURIES.

West Point, N. Y, Nov. Cadet
Eugene A. Byrne, of Buffalo, n. Y.
a fourth year man at the United
States Military academy, died in the
cadet hospital Sunday morning, a
sacrifice to football. This tragedy
of the gridiron has brought such
grief to the officers and cadets alike,
that the end of football at West
Point and Annapolis is predicted by
many.
Young Byrne died at sunrise. His
grief stricken father, John Byrne. a
Civil war veteran, was at his bedside.
Buried beneath a mass of strug-
Cling players in the Harvard-Army
game. his neck was twisted and
broken and he was picked up paral-
yzed. The immediate resort to artifi-
cial respiration was all that kept the
boy from instant death, for he did
not draw a natural breath after re-
ceiving the fatal shock.
