HE NEVER MISSED.
4 Well Paid. Fiery Job That Wears q
Man Out In Fifteen Years.


Man Out In Fifteen Years.
The man who stood AT the lever had
a story that is common all over Amer
lea Ten years before he had been a
peasant lad In dull little village In
Ireland Drawn up and along by the
emigrant tide. he had drfted to Chi
cago, and here In the works he had
caught the true spirit of the place.
which is to strain every nerve and
rise. He had risen. His pay was 500
week. He worked every night from
p. IN. to a. IN. twelve vigilant
hours. Watching those three mann
moth tanks. by the tints aud hues in
their columns of flame he could tell
just when to wrench back lever.
This he did over Il hundred times In
the night. and If he missed by so much
as thirty seconds he spoiled thousands
Of dollars worth of steel. He never
missed.
To hold this job is to jam the
strength of lifetime into fifteen
years-at 500 week. The man recog.
nized this as matter of course. only
qualifying 1t by the remark that he
knew of redheaded Scotchman at
Homestead who had held 1t seventeen
years before breaking. That his whole
life had been changed; that the little
Irish village, the misty bog and the
novels were back IN another age. on
another planet-all this he felt vague
ly and summed 1t up. with a twinkle
"Shure," he said, Its a terrible quick
spin this ould wurld is afther takin'."
But he loved the fiery job. called the
huge tanks 'me darlin's" and said he
would rather be what he was than be
president. - Ernest Poole In Every.

Red Is the Most Frequent, and After

1t Is entirely appropriate, of course,
that red, the war color, should lppear
so frequently In the flags Of TIE vari-
GUS nations OF the flags of the coun-
tries Of the eastern hemisphere there
Is only one-that of Greece-which
does not show the martial color. In
the western hemisphere, however. we
find several standards not showing
red. The flags of the Argentine Re
public, Brazil, Nicaragua. Guatemala. !.
Uruguay and Honduras contain no
red.
In this country there is no red In
the union jack or In the flags of the
secretary Of the navy, the admiral of
the navy, the rear admiral senior In
rank and the rear admiral junior in
rank. Red appears in the pennant of
the rear admiral second in rank and
the pennant of the revenue marine.
The United States mail flag also shows
red. and that color is also found in
the pennants for the vessels of the
lighthouse service, the yacht ensign,
the ensign of the revenue marine, the
presidents and the secretary of wars
standards.
The flags that are almost entirely
red. except for the devices shown
thereon. are those of Austria Hungary.
Egypt Morocco and Japan. The flag
Of Turkey is practically of a solid red.
After red the prevailing color in flags
is blue -Harper's Weekly

what should have been the necessary
precautions to prevent the sale of
liquor to the Indians. The saloon men
around the edges appreciated condi-
tons and refused to ship liquor into
the dry territory. The Moorhead
men. however, found this to be a
fertile field and rushed booze there by
the trunhful and in suit cases and

them.

Grand Forks Postmaster Is
Now an Aviator
Says He Enjoyed Ride May
Buy an Airship

Grand Forks, N. D., July 22.-Frank
". Kent, the Grand Forks postmaster
is now an enthusiastic aviator and is
talking Of buying a machine of his
own. Pc
| The feature yesterday at the Grand
Forks fair was the fight in the even
| ing when Mr. Kent was taken up as
passenger. There was a splendid
flight in the afternoon lasting twenty
minutes. It is stated that there were
10000 on tho grounds yesterday.
/ 1t was the evening flight, however,
that attracted the crowds The en-.
giles gave a little trouble at the start
and the flight was delayed for about
an hour. Hoxsey took off his coat
and went at them however, and at
$3.50 the engines started with a
sound that meant business Post
master Kent climbed into the right
hand seat OF the machine and the avn
ator into the left, and the aeropIane
got away In a beautiful start that
brought forth a rousing cheer. No
attempt was made to rise very high.
Most of the maneuvers were per-
formed at height of about rs or 100
feet, but several times Hoxsey mount
ed to about $50 feet to gain additional
momentum for circling and roller
coasting. Whenever they passed near
the grandstand the audience cheered
to the, limit of the lungs. The air was
almost without movement, the engines
worked perfectly and there was per-
ceptible diminution in the speed of
the machine because of the extra
load. The aeropIane Travelled at a
high rate of speed and once as Hoxsey
dove so low beyond the crowds that
banked the north fence that only the
upper work of the biplane could be
seen from a position near the grand
stand, 1t was easier to get an idea of
the speed by mentally comparing 1t
with the passing of fast train.
Those in charge of the searchlights
had been warned not to throw the
light upon the aeroplane when it was
coming toward the grandstand, as the
light would bother the aviator. How
ever, the light was frequently thrown
on the machine as it wheeled away
from the stand apd in the gathering
dusk the contrast accumulated the
beauty. of the picture. %
After q flight of nine minutes Hox-
ser shut of the engines and made a
iandinsethat was perfect in every way.
