Ter explanatory of the occasion: This
Is that which was spoken by the
Prophet Joel: And 1t shall come to
pass In the last days, saith God, will
pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and
your sons and your daughters shall
prophesy. and your young men shall
have the vision which your ancients
dreamed OF; and on my servants and
on my handmaidens will pour out In
those days my Spirit. and they shall

St Peter declares that the outpour-
tng Of the holy Spirit upon the waiting
believers at Pentecost was mentioned
BY Joel the Prophet. but he does not
say that all Of the prophecy was full
nlled there and then. AS a matter of
fact we know that the holy Spirit was
not then poured out on all flesh; 1t
was poured out merely upon Gods
servants and hand maidens. A care
full inspection shows us that there are
two parts to the prophecy-Q) All hesh.
and (2) Gods servants and handmade
ems. The order of the blessing is also
stated. 1t will come upon all aesh
otter those days. but upon the servants
and hand maidens IN those days. The
days mentioned evidently refer TO this
Gospel age-from Pentecost to the Sec

THE MONTENEGRO.

He Is Hospitable, but Dearly Loves the
Vendetta.
To listen to Bulgar singing Is to
make ones flesh creep or want to
weep. The centuries of cruel oppres-
sion are only too manifest in Bulgarian
music and words. but Montenegrin
grows restless over his songs and
curses the powers that forbid him to
emulate his forefathers' deeds en-
masse across the frontier. He does
so whenever he can, but only In twos
and threes.
When the Montenegrin goes raiding
across the border it is really a more
sporting affair than the we'll equipped
and organized outings of the Bulgar
"Comitatchis." With him it Is usually
1 private act of revenge or vendetta
10 which be invites one or two friends.
Then they steal across the border at
night. find their man. do their best tn
kill him and then make tracks home

Tho Last of tho Rufus.

In 1862 the rage for ruffs. such as are
seen on many monumental efigies, be-
gan to decline. A writer in the Lon
don Chronicle of that year says Of gen.
tlemen's dress. "Their cuffs entirely
cover their wrists. and only the edges
of their ruftles are to be SEEN" 1t Is
said that distaste for rufus was first
created so far back as 1913. when
woman named Turner wore them on
her trial for the murder by poison of
Sir Thomas Overbury. The French
revolution Of 1889 much Influenced
British fashion. and the picturesque
cooked hat and ruftles then gave way
generally to round hats and small
cuffs The period Of their final disuse
cannot be easily determined, as men
of old fashioned or eccentric habits
have worn ruftied shirt fronts within
quite recent memory similar to those
which. according to Planche's Ills
tory of British Costume" originated
in the seventeenth century.

Eashiona In Rornao.

According to the rules of Borneoan
fashion it Is deemed necessary to mold
ones limbs into more shapely form
than that bestowed by nature. This is
done really effectively by winding
strong brass wire round the ankles, the
wrists. under the knees and above the
elbows of children. Growth at these
points is, in consequence, greatly ham
pered, with the result that the limbs
come to be deformed or. according to
Dyak ideas. brought into proper shape.
The headdress consists of a curious
head work cap. and around his neck a
bridegroom to be wears bangles of
plated fiber and strings of cowrie
shells. These shells. by the way. as In
other parts Of the world. are used as
currency. A yard of fiber or twenty
to thirty cowrie shells represent the
value of a penny. The white armlets
are made of another species Of shells.

some ADVANCES Have been
CONTINUED from page y

with the interstate commerce COM
mission by the Western Trunk Line
association, making advances in the
rates in commodities between Chica-
go and Milwaukee and between Chi
cago and st. Paul, and between st.
Paul and eastern destinations on
wool are in effect today.
While these tariffs are not so i'm
portant as those making general ad-
vances in commodities between the
Missouri river and the Mississippi
river transfers, they nevertheless
are of a considerabl concern to ship
pers in the western trunk line terri
tory to Atlantic seaboard points. The
increase in the freight transportation
of wool from St. Paul points to New
York and Boston particularly is of i'm
mense interest to consignors, as it
means a fiat advance of 10 cents a
hundred pounds. This increase ap-
plies to all western wool passing
through st. Paul or Minneapolis des-
tined to Atlantic tide-water restina-
lions.
It is not explained why the injunc-
ton sought by the department of JUS
tiee was not made applicable to all
of the advances recently made by the
Western Trunk Line association.

Birds Euqs.

Ostriches lay the largest eggs OF all
birds now extant, according to a writ
er in the Scientific American. but the
ostrichs egg would have appeared
small beside that extinct Madagascar
bird, the epyornis, which measured
more than thirty inches in its small
est circumference. The smallest birds
eggs are those Of the minute species of
humming birds, which are smaller
than the eggs Of certain kinds Of trop-
ical beetles. But the cuckoo lays the
relatively smallest egg-that is to say,
while the jackdaw and the cuckoo are
about equal in size, the formers egg is
five or six times larger than the lat
ter's. The fact that the cuckoo Is
wont to deposit its eggs in the nests
of birds which are usually much small
er than itself doubtless accounts for
this. The relatively largest egg Is laid
by the kiwi, a strange, wingless New
Zealand bird. The egg is no less than
five inches long, although the extreme
length Of the bird itself is only twen-
ty-seven inches.

by these means more room for enjoy

FROM THE TRAINING
CAMPS

Ben Lomond, June 1.-"Hit hard"
was the order today at James }. Jeff-
ries' camp when the former champion
began boxing again after a layoff or
more than a week.
Jeffries laid down the law to his
sparring partners before he began,
intimating that if they did not slug
he would. The result was Immediate
ly noticeable.
Bob Armstrong was the first man
up. He rushed Jeff from the start
and set lively pace for three rounds.
Just before time was called in the
bout, Jeff drove his glove into BOb's
midsection and Armstrong doubled up
with grunt.
Joe Choynski came next for three
rounds, and the pair stepped around
in a clever sparring exhibition, Choyn-
ski displaying even more skill than
usual. The main event, however, was
the two round go with Sam Berger,
who came last. Jeffries was evidently
saving up for his manager and they
went at it in slam-bang fashion,
roughing it around the ring until it
looked like a good old knock down
and drag out battle. Sam hit hard and
Jeffries replied in kind, much to Ber-
gers discomfort toward the close of
the bout. The bouts were the near
est approach to the real thing since
Jeffries started to work. Then fol-
lowed bit of road work.
After the boxing came a fast hand
ball game with James J. Corbitt. who
hugely enjoyed watching the boxing.
Corbett will not do any sparring until
next Monday when he expects to be
in good shape.

Tho Conductors Baton.

According to the investigations Of a
Frenchman, the credit Of inventing the
conductors baton belongs to Lully, the
composer. who eventually had cause to
regret his invention. Before he adopt
ed the baton conductors were in the
habit of pounding on the floor with
their feet or clapping their hands to
mark the time. Lully found it weari-
some to keep his foot constantly in mo-
ton and so used stick to strike the
floor and beat time. He used pole
six feet long. One day he brought
down the pole with such force that it
struck his foot and made deep
wound. He paid no attention to the
matter. The wound grew worse and
ultimately caused bis death. After
his time conductors tried more and
more to improve the baton, and it was
ultimately brought to its present form.

WHIPPED BY MACHINERY.
Autom attic FIoggers Used by Several
European Armies.

european fATbI1IeSs
Automatic fogging machines are in
use among the military forces Of sew
eral European nations. For many
years the whipping was always done
by soldiers under the command of an
officer, and the punishment varied, &C
cording to the personal relations sub
sisting between the soldier and his vic
tim. 1t was to correct this disadvan-
tage that the flogging machine was in
vented
The machine is automatic in action,
and as soon as the culprit is fastened
in position a spring is frightened or
loosened to gauge the exact force of
the blow. A pointer is moved over a
dial to the requisite number Of strokes
and the mechanism is started.
With perfect regularity the victims
back is scourged by the throngs, the
handle Of the whip being moved by
screw device after each stroke so that
the lash does not fall on the same spot
throughout the punishment.
Each blow is of uniform severity,
and as soon as the required number
has been given the machine comes to
a rest, and the offender is released.

ishment ordered has been meted out

BURNING THE DEAD.
A Custom That Can 30 Traced. Back
to the Earliest Ages.


to the Earliest Ages.
Cremation has been practiced by
most Of the nations Of the earth from
the earliest ages, and. although in pa
gan countries it may have taken the
form of fire worshiping, there can be
no doubt that its adoption by the an
clients was for the most part prompt
ed by other than religions reasons.
Greeks ascribe its introduction to Her.
cules. who, having sworn to transmit
the body Of Argus to his father.
thought this the most convenient way
Of fulfilling his promise. According to
Homer. the burning Of the dead was
common practice among the Greeks
long before the Trojan war. but the
earliest record of it Is among the
Scythians, who inhabited the vast re-
gion known under the name Of Tar
tary. Slender accounts handed down
concerning the manners of some Of the
ancient natives Of HindustaD also al
lude to the custom. The idea of puri-
fication by fire was in all ages univer-
sal, and with good reason. Some be-
lieved that the body was unclean after
the departure of the soul. and it was
therefore deemed necessary that 1t
should be purified by fire. Ovid ex-
pressed the general opinion Of his time
when he said that the soul was not
completely separated from the body
until the latter was consumed on the
pyre. The Athenians invariably after
battle burned the slain.
