on my bed, some Of them half % large
As the envelope containing this letter.
In the latter part Of winter my skin

Z Mlsconcsption That Has, Deen
Widespread.

Lots Of you folks In the States
said Thomas r. Mccartney of st.
John, N. b, the other day. call every
body from the maritime provinces
'bluenoses.' That's not It at all, It's
only the Nova S~cotians that we caIl
SO. And it's not because the people
there have blue noses, either. !,
II have met people here who really
thought that folks down east were 20
called because their . were Al
ways blue On account Of the cold. raw
climate they suppose prevails there.
THE fact ID the term 'bluenoses'
was first given to the inhabitants Of
the CORVALLIS valley, who were the
original raisers of a potato called the
'bluenose' from its blush skin. This
potato was shipped to the states In
large quantities, and the name OF the
potato became the name OF the people
who raised It."

FIND WATCH IN ALLIGATOR
Is Believed to Solve Mystery Of Miss
ing TwelVe-Year-old Girl.

Is Believed to Solve Mystery Of Miss
ing TwelVe-Yearold Girl.
The finding Of a valuable gold
watch and chain in the stomach of a
large alligator that died in a pond near
Forsyth, Ga, is believed to solve the
mystery surrounding the disappear
ance Of twelve-year-old Janet Thom-
son from the home Of her parents at
Island Grove. Fla, two years ago.
The alligator was captured near
Island Grove some weeks after the
girl disappeared and was brought to
Forsyth by J. NJ. Jackson.
The little girl has never been heard
from since she disappeared When last
seen she was standing on the banks Of
the lake where jackson captured the
alligator, and she was wearing at the
time a gold watch Of the Waltham
make, with her initials engraved on
the back Of the watch. The same ini-
tials are on the back Of the watch dis
covered on the inside of the dead ALI
gator.
1t is believed by jackson and 9TH
ers that while the girl was playing on
the bank Of the lake the alligator came
upon the bank and devoured her.

over NIAGARA
IN A BARREL
Bobby Leach Escapes with a
Broken Leg
HE DROPPED 1853 FEET
Al a Point 400 Feet From the Canadian
Shore He Plunged Over Falls Into
the Air Charged Waters.

Bobby" Leach is the second person
to 20 over the Horseshoe Falls of
Niagara and live to tell the story. He
made the trip while large number Of
people watched the spectacle from
both sides of the river.
Leach sent his baTTel-boat Of steel
up the river along the New York side
and he was taken well out into the Ca
/ madam channel. The launch towed the
barrel far down stream, and it was
not until the danger point for boats
had been reached that the barrel was
closed and Leach was set adrift. He
was still a long distance from the
upper rapids, and sluggishly the Gu
rents drew him on.
Lazily the man with ambition for
fame swept on, quite hopeless TO has
ten the result. Into the upper rapids
and over the reefs the strange craft
went, and then Leach knew he was
speeding toward the dropping of
place. An eddy current drew him near
shore opposite the power plant Of the
Electrical Development company, but
the currents that hurry toward the
