TOO MUCH In FEAR
SAD HAPPENING THAT HAS
soURED MRS. STOREY.
Avoidance Of Publicity in This Case
Was Costiy-And, of Course,
Mr.. Storey Says "a Told
You So."

Mrs. Storey's life had been haunted
for years by the fear that some day
she might be called upon to serve as
a witness in court. Her grandmother
was a witness once, and when Mrs.
Storey was a little girl she used to
hear all about it. Grandma, it ap-
pears, had been so scared she couldn't
tell the judge her own name.
And" said Mrs. Storey to her hus-
band, 'if there is anything more dis
graceful than to be unable to tell your
own name, I'd like to know what it
is"
In order to reduce the possibility Of
such a calamity to a minimum, Mrs.
Storey would walk on with deafened
ears and aVerted head whenever she
happened to be near a fight or the
scene of an accident. Only the other
day she had occasion to shut her eyes
and ears to the seething crowd around
her. She was waiting in the south
terminal station for Mr. Storey, who
had gone around to the baggage room
to check a trunk
Presently she became aware that
something exciting was happening
close beside her. HASTILY she shut her
eyes and stuck her fingers into her
ears, but before those protective
measures could be accomplished she
learned that a female thief had
snatched a handbag which she had
found lying on the floor and was be-
ing pursued by an excited crowd.
Not being entirely devoid of the curl
osity of her sex, Mrs. Storey would
have liked to know more, but the old
fear of being detained as a witness
held her inert until her husbands re-
turn. Then she ventured to ask If
they had caught the thief.
Eyes" said Mr. Storey. "but they
couldn't do anything with her. Every
one was confident the bag didn't be-
long to her, but as nobody appeared
| to claim it they had to let her CO."
At that Mrs. Storey opened her eyes
'I am so glad" she said, that it is
all over. / am ready to go now. But
oh, dear me! Where are my purse
and handbag? I had them here 6
moment ago. They must have
dropped-ah, wonder"
mo use to wonder now" said Mr.
Storey heartlessly; "of course, the
stolen bag was yours"

A Strange Lake.

Captain Tilho of the French mis-
sion to the Lake Chad region in Afri-
ca has discovered some new vagaries
of that puzzling body of water which
has long exercised the minds of geog-
raphers with its problems. He found
in 1908 that caravans were crossing
on dry land the northern part of the
lake-bed where, in 1904, the captain
himself, had navigated an open ex-
panse Of water. The lake covers an
area about four-fiftEs as large as Bel
gium, but its average depth is only
five feet. Even the winds suffice to
change its level to such an extent as
to submeTge or leave bare portions of
its shores. 1t is entirely Independent
of the rivers that flow into the Allan
tic and the Mediterranean. Curiously
enough, the lake does not occupy the
lowest part of the great plain of which
it is approximately the center, for OBJ
serVation shows that northeast Of the
lake there are plains of considerably
lower altitude than that of the lake.

Hard Task 70 Save Life.

A painful and somewhat sensational
adventure befell Mr.. Boyd, an en-
gineer of Didsbury, Manchester, Eng
land, the other Sunday, while he was
exploring a 'p0t-hole" in the lime
stone district near Ingleborough. He
was climbing by means of a rope from
a subterranean chamber, when the
rope broke, and he fell 80 feet, break
ing his thigh. A local doctor spent
the night with him, and his friends
strapped him to a plank, boisted him
a hundred feet to the roof OF the cave,
then carried him a quarter Of a mile
through a tortuous passage to the out-
er world, the task occupying Is hours.
1t was not till four o'clock on the Mon
day afternoon that Mr. Boyd was safe
ly deposited at the nearest inn.

Bishop FaIIows on Marriage.

Bishop and Mrs. Samuel Fallows re-
Gently celebrated the fiftieth anniVer-
sary Of their wedding Bishop Fallows
has taken up in modified form the
Emmanuel movement, and has been
very successful in awakening his fol-
lowers to a sense of their duty in
relation to the maintenance of health.
Tell them that l want to say, as
ST. John did, Little children, love one
another Love can be cultivated like
any other sentiment It is not only
an instinct, but a principle and a con-
viction. 1t is not only in the blood,
but in the intellect. Love Is intellec-
tuaIzed emotion. Young couples should
be temperamentally suited and then
they will blend together. They must
not wait till they get $4,000 a year be
fore they get married, and don't ap-
prove Of hasty marriages. When ]
married / was receiving 500 a year,
and we always put something by. Love
is the greatest ming Of all, and if our
married people had more of it there
would be less divorces.-Health Cul

THE PARAN0lAC.
Queer Deiusions That Come With This
Curious Mental Disease.

Queer DeIusions That Come With This
Curious Mental Disease.
'aThat curious form of mental dis
ease known as paranoia is seldom or
ever cured" said a noted Chicago
alienist.
"a paranoiac may be able to trans
act business with q fair degree Of eff
cheney, but, as a rule, few Of this class
can be made to stick 10 work, as the
nature Of the malady prevents cOncen-
tration of mind. One so possessed is
afflicted with strange delusions, espe-
cially with the notion that he is being
prosecuted. Many an individual who
is denominated a crank has paranoia.
In general these unfortunates are mis-
anthropic, have no social intercourse
with their fellows and are brooding
and introspective Very often their
mania leads them to the notion that
they have been born to lead mankind
IN a religious way, and they proclaim
themselves prophets Of God. Quite
often, too, they are discoverers Of
some wonderful invention that will as
tonish the world.
''It was a paranoiac who followed
the great actress Mary Anderson from
place to place, declaring himself her
favored suitor and threatening to kill
any man who sought her company.
These threats were what led to the
locking up of the demented creature,
and believe he finally shot one Of the
asylum attendants. Paranoiacs very
frequently develop homicidal tenden-
cies, and It is prudent to watch them
ct all times" Baltimore American.

"a Lady and a LAWYER"

Practically all the members of Dis
trict Attorney Whitman's staff were
in Judge Cranes court when Lawyer
Freda Thomas made an eloquent ap-
peal in behalf Of George Davis,
youth on trial for burglary. Assistant
District Attorney WilmOt, somewhat
abashed by the situation, cautioned
the jury not to be Influenced because
the defendants counsel was a lady"
Il object to that remark" said Miss
Thomas. 'The district attorney has
no right to refer to my sex. I am a
lawyer"
THAT is right" said the ever gallant
Judge Crane. you are both a lady
and lawyer. r."-Pittsburg Dispatch.

AGED LIONS.
Father Time Works Great Change In
Them-Ths Big Brutes Become
Lazy and Spiritless.

As he grows old a lion gets lazy
and spiritless, says Everybody's. The
naughty beast that stares at the crowd
outside his cage usually is as fierce Of
spirit as a fat night watchman who
blinks out upon the dark world
through the circle Of light cast by the
lamp at his feet.
With plenty to eat, nothing TO annoy
him and q keeper to look after his
cage, the king of beasts becomes as
peaceful, portly and self satisfied as
some Of our latter day human mon
archs, whose ministers of army, navy,
state and other things take proper
care of the regal edge and see to it
that the usual three square meals per
day await the royal gullet at the prop
er hours.
The story book impression that lions
are always on the hunt in their native
Jungle is quite at variance with the
truth. Indeed, the older lions will fire.
Quently go hungry or seek the leavings
of another beasts kill rather than
summon tho energy to hunt prey for
themselves.
In group Of ten or twelve trained
lions two or three young, nervous anil
mails usually supply the act with all
its dash and spirit. The others are
somnambulists.
Tigers, too. frequently grow lethar-
gic with advancing years, but never to
such degree as the aging lion. There
is always a pinch Of ginger in the big
striped cat. For that reason he makes
a more spectacular performer than the
lion and usually a tougher proposition
for the trainer.

Closed Door an Aid to Harmony.

Among the tribes where families
live in one-roomed huts with never
door or division, dispositions must be
Of uncommon sweetness. AS civiliza-
ton increases the need Of doors
to increase, too, until finally our dis
positios, or is it our effete dislike Of
violence? makes doors primal neces-
stiles A closed door is the greatest
aid to harmony known. Those people
who are cropping toward a desire for
harmony, but are not yet wholly
emancipated from the savage-one-
roOm-hOt-row period of civilization,
slam their door en- closing it and thus
manage to leave a little ruction out
side, though their supposed desire is
to take it in the room with them and
dissolve it into nothingness before ap-
pearing again In public. Sometimes
ones gratitude for doors, doors in
general and ones own door in partic-
ular, is so keen that one wonders if
in the lares ct penates there was not
one especially devoted TO doors. 1t
would be to this little god that mod
ern thanks would be most deyoutly Of
fered up.

New Remedy for Strong Poison.

Experiments at the Rockefeller In
stitute of Medical Research are said
to have developed a surgical expedi-
ent by which the effects of the most
virulent poisons may be rendered rel.
atively harmless. So long as there is
the faintest heartbeat, it is possible
to save anyone who has taken what
has been heretofore regarded as a
fatal dose of strychnine, morphine, IL
Illuminating gas, and kindred poisons.
The basis of the treatment is the
forcing a steady supply of air through
the windpipe into the lungs. 1t differs
from other artificial means Of Tespira-
ton in that the lungs themselves are
not called upon to give aid. A small
tube forced through the windpipe to
the openings of the lungs conveys the
fresh air, while the foul air returns by
pressure through the windpipe outside
the tube, which may be inserted
through the mouth, or an aperture cut
in the windpipe.

Three CHARGED
With BURGLARY
POLICE NAB TRIO IN REAR Or
MooRHEAD HARDWARE CO.'S
sroRE-THIs BUILDING SEEMS
TO BE A MARK FOR BURGLARS
CUT PANEL FROM DOOR.

Oflcers Erickson and Knapp made a
good catch last night Of three men
who were taken to police headquarters
and are charged with attempting to
burglarize the store of the Moorhead
Hardware Co. The arrests were made
at the rear OF the store at 1918.
Investigation of the rear OF the
store disclosed that an effort had been
made to gain an entrance through the
office window, but that was protected
by closely set iron bars which were
proof against the tools the burglars
had at their disposal. 1t was also
found that panel had been cut out
of door. The men arrested are all
young and gave their names as Wal
ter Thompson, Henry McGregor and
Ernest GILES. -
This store has been broken into
several times, the last about a year
ago and in nearly every case the rear
office window was used as means OF
entrance. Immediately after the last
attempt strong irons were put over
the window and their effectiveness
was proved last night. There is no
doubt that with this warning Mr..
Vincent, the proprietor, will look
| about for points that are not I'M
pregnable.

'Rathskeller Cafe" Moorhead
The Heat-Forget IL.

Duluth Herald: Such an amazing
caprice of the weather as a hot, dry
June, with record-breaking tempera-
lures, is so novel in Duluth that it is
small wonder folks talk about it a
great deal. But talking about it does
not help 1t bit. In point of fact, 1t
makes 1t worse. A group of people
discussing the heat, comparing rec
ords, analysing the temperature and
explaining to each other how hot they
are, will feel the heat very much more
than another group of people thinking
and talking about other things.
There are a few things that 1t is
worth while keeping in mind in hot
weather. Don't eat too much-food is
fuel Don't drink too much--it doesn't
help a bit and may be dangerous
Don't over-exert-though nobody needs
that advice, probably. Don't take cold
drinks when you are heated-ice water
is bad any time, and worse when you
are hot. Beware of unripe fruit
though cool, luscious ripe fruit is
wholesome.
When you come in from a walk
bathed in perspiration and oil but ex-
tinguished by the heat, start the cold
water tap running and let the water
run on your wrists, over your wrists
over your pulse. 1t will cool and re-
fresh you about as quickly as any
thlng-much quicker than q long gully
Of Ice water, which may finish wha'
the heat began.
And don't think about the weather
or the heat or the temperature. Thinl
about Christmas or Thanksgiving Oh
Greenlands icy mountains-but forge
the heat.

THE DECLINE OF BRYAN.
Change in Ohio Shows That He Is No
Longer Regarded As a Leader.

Change in Ohio Shows That He Is No
Longer Regarded AS a Leader.
New York Sun: The state con-
vention in Ohio which nominated judi
son Harmon for governor two years
ago Endorsed William ]. Bryan for
the presidency in flattering terms and
instructed delegates to the national
convention to vote for Mr.. Bryan's
nomination. 1t was an early conven-
ton, meeting on May s, and strong
minority, led by Tom L. Johnson, OPP
posed the nomination of Mr.. Harmon.
Johnson failed to prevent 1t, but did
succeed in obtaing an Endorsement of
Mr.. Bryan, which was the first thing
or his programme. He declined all
overtures from the conservatives. In
recognition of his success in commit
ting Ohio to the nomination OF Mr..
Bryan for president he was selected
10 head the delegation to Denver.
Less than two months before the
Ohio convention met in 1908 followers
OF Mr.. Bryan howled down Judson
Harmon at q democratic dollar dinner
in Kansas City when he responded to a
| call from the POSTMASTER and at
tempted to speak Judge Harmon said
of the incident. This is the way il
always happens when / speak with
| Mr.. Bryan. If l speak before him the
audience won't listen to me, and If
| follow him there is no audience lef
| TO speak to-"
In the state convention in Ohio tlH
adjourned on Wednesday Tom L
Johnson was again found leading {
minority and representing William J
Bryan, but it was minority rendered
tmpotent by desertions. No conces
| sions were made to 1t, and 1t gainet
no victories. In the convention Their
was no Bryan sentiment wort
weighing and calculating. A propose
to indorse Mr.. Bryan for presiden
would have received no consideration
whatever. In his place the democrat
of Ohio set Judge Harmon, presenting
him to the nation as @ real man
whom they Endorsed "for the presi
dency in 1912"
The change in Ohio means that M
Bryan is no longer seriously regarde
in that state as leader of the part
and available for the presidency. Fl
has been told in effect to mind his ow
: business and keep in the background
! He had previously received simila
J notice in Nebraska.

BroomhalPs Report.

Liverpool, July 1.-The wheat mar
ket opened under the influence of
larger offerings induced by the weak
mess in America yesterday and values
q lower. Following the opening there
was some support from shorts in Oc-
tober and this month advanced 3s on
the small increase in monthly stocks
and the smaller cargo arrivals with
private reports that Australia and In
dian shippers are holding firmer. Dur
ing the morning this advance was lost
and the entire market became heavy
with an additional decline of n to 3s
from the opening. Profit taking was
induced by the continued highly ia
vorabie reports from Russia and the
increased estimates regarding the
yield. Roumania is offering new wheat
at pence decline with crop prospects
there excellent. Cargoes are freely Of
fered at 3 pence decline, and there is
a report that the continent is re-
selling. The market at midday was
weak and to 1b lower than yester-
.-Broomhall.
