FREED THE HoMEsTEADER.
Two Huge Bull Moose in Battle for
 Supremacy in Herd.

Two Huge Bull Moose in Battle fOR
 Supremacy in Herd.
 Battling to the death and making the woods ring with their cries oi anger and pain, two huge moose were seen in terrific struggle for suprem. acy by Hans Nelderson, homestea Ter residing about ten miles north of this place.
 While making his way through the woods to Winton. Nelderson. suddenly coming into clearing. faced huge bull moose. head high in the air and eyes blazing apparently with anger. The homesteader thinking the animal was angered by his approach, hur. Tiedly sought refuge in a tree. The moose, however, paid little attention to the man, and. after sending forth numerous calls, turned about, and Nelderson, following the animals gaze saw another moose of almost equal proportions approaching.
 The two animals faced each other for a moment. as if hesitating as tc their course of action. Suddenly the first moose attacked the other. and fo1 nearly half an hour Nelderson. in the tree. witnessed probably the fiercest struggle man has ever seen.
 Fighting with antlers. hoofs and teeth. the animals continued the con test until the first moose had been defeated Nelderson's admiration for the vanquished king of the woods nearly resulted in his sustaining seri- ous injury. When the moose which came upon the scene last indulged in unfair tactics, according to Nelder- sons opinion. by planting his antlers in his opponents breast when the lat ter was down and out" the home steader fired twice with a rife of small caliber
 The wounds were only slight and the conquering moose turned his attention to the claim owner. Butting the small tree violently, the animal nearly threw Nelderson to the ground. As it was, the lfomesteader. holding on to the tree trunk. for safety. roundly berated himself for attempting to take part in the battle. Finally. tired out from its exertlons. the successful combat. ant trotted peacefully away. It was not, however, until some hours after that Nelderson worked up sufficient courage to drop to the ground and make his way to Winton.-Duluth Herald.

ELEVEN DAYS IN THE BUSH.
s>CCa.~GGSSCs~Ss

w. D. Pitcairn, in his Two Years Among the Savages of New Guinea. relates an adventure which befell friend of his, Bob Sanderson, in north Queensland. This friend, who was a man of good education and an experl- enced bushman, was on an expedition in search of new country adapted to stock raising. He had with him a party of men with tents and all neces sary provisions for the journey.
 After travelling about four hundred miles they found a good looking coun- try. and pitched their camp. MT. San derson wandered some distance from his party. and on returning at night fall, found the place deserted. HIS followers had struck their tents and made off.
 He was four hundred miles from civilization, alone in the painless bush, the home of wild and treacher- ous blacks, without a morsel of food, and with no weapon but revolver.
 There was nothing for it but to face the inevitable. and he started on his long journey.
 Day after day he plodded wearily along. without any covering at night except the trees. finding here and there a few berries. and often suffer ing horribly from hunger and thirst.
 One morning at sunrise he was de scending a slope. when to his dismay, about fifty yards below him, he saw a large camp of blacks. One. of them had just risen. and was stretching himself directly in the face of the white man.
 This was a moment to test the stuff of a man already reduced by days of continuous tramping and starvation. But Sanderson did not hesitate. With piercing shouts he rushed down upon the camp. firing his revolver as he ran.
 The blacks took it for granted that he had a large force at his back. and immediately broke in confusion and fled across the river.
 For several days longer the man struggled on. Then on the eleventh day he sank to the ground, quite un- able to go farther. Happily he was now near a cattle station, and stock man who was out riding stumbled upon him. He was taken into the house and every attention was be- slowed upon him. and eventually he his health and strength.

The Count de Choiseul, distinguished amateur horticulturist. finds the re- suits for pear trees most excellent. the fruit grown on the north side of the wall being equal to that grown on the south side, and even smoother. Other we'll known nursery gardeners have made the experiment with good results for pears, peaches and apples. The principal objection made to the glass wall is that it does not store up heat like a masonry wall. to keep the plants warm at night; during the day time the heat is nearly equal on both sides of the wall.
 The value of ozone as a purifying agent for water is being recognized in many places. Its attack upon in- fusorial life is akin to the process of combustion. Any well constructed ap- paratus by which air charged with ozone may be made to traverse the water answers the purpose. Professor Soper of Columbia University has found that Croton water is not only sterilized by the ozone treatment. but that unpleasant odors are removed. Professor Geddes of Glasgow Is quoted as saying that the use of ozone will render costly filtration plants virtually superfiuous At Baltimore an ozone plant, capable of treating 1O,000,000 gallons daily. Is about to be put in operation, and in Europe the method has been adopted at Nice, Brest. Char tres and elsewhere.

The antique chair shown in the cut has been used so long for commence ment and inauguration ceremonies that no such occasion at Harvard would be complete without it. Presi dent Lowell sat in it during his in augural ceremony just as his predeces sors in office have done for the last two centuries.
 Tradition says that it came into the possession of the university during the administration of President Holyoke but it is not known exactly when nor how. Tradition again says that it was given to President Holyoke by Rev Ebenezer Turell, of Medford, a rela tive of the Mathers. who were among New England's earliest settlers.
 President Holyoke always believed that the chair was brought from En- gland by some member of the MatheI family.
 Benjamin Pierce, one of Harvard's historians, connects the chair with a certain variety of furniture found in she Cheshire district of England in the last of the seventeenth and the begin aing of the eighteenth centuries.
 Horace Walpole, England's great statesman, wrote to a friend, asking him to get one of these curious chairs from the Cheshire district. He de scribes them as being "of wood, the seat triangular, the back. arms and legs loaded with turnery, and carved and turned in the most uncouth and whimsical forms"
 The whole question is now dismiss ed by the statement that it was proba- ply brought from that English district, but ''in times unknown"
 President Holyoke himself turned the knobs and put them on the main posts with his own hands. The quaint and elaborate seat is now stored in one of the closets of Harvard Hall, and is brought out only for specified ceremo ] nies.-Christian Science Monitor

Down in the City-by-the-sea
From all the land they've come.
just in days now history,
They came, from hearth and home
To fight for country and for flag,
With patriot ardor true;
How far away those days now seem
To the veteran Boys in Blue.
But peaceful is their mission now,
The war clouds all have passed,
In cheer and happy holiday,
Their numbers now are ma ed.
And time has softened bitter pains
OF hardships long gone through.
OF battles which moved down the
ranks
OF the gallant Boys in Blue.
They've done their part; the nations
might,
Prosperity and fame.
Are all their work; its 1aurels great
Are tributes to their name.
So in the sunset of their day,
Well may their rest prove true.
In peace to meet and view their work,
