The Tale Of . PurpossIy Interrupted
Yachting Cruise.
A few seasons back a well known
hostess chartered splendid yacht for
August and invited a large number Of
her friends for q three weeks cruise. At
0rst all went we'll. though the party
was not specially well assorted. but
after a few days they began to evince
signs Of being somewhat bored with
each others company.
The hostess marked these signs Of
incipient boredom. which became more
plainly evident each day, and at last
In despair she took counsel with one
of her guests. Al old and experienced
yachtsman.
what on earth shall I do to amuse
these people?' she asked.
The yacbtyman looked at the serene
sky and calm. blue water and shook
his head dsubtfully.

all right for you. He has probably
often done so before. Then you must
make for the nearest port for repairs
and let your guests have a run ashore
Some of them. I expect, will find an
excuse for bidding you goodby and
those who remain with you will get
along all right together"

ARE YOU AN HERR

It II estimated that there are some
thing like 10000 persons scattered
throughout the United States and Can
ada who are entitled to moneys and
lands now tied up in the English High
Court OF Chancery and elsewhere ow-
ing to the inability of lawyers to To-
cate them. The great trouble is that
foreign lawyers. when searching for
lost heirs. almost invariably advertise
for them In London and Edinburgh
newspapers. As these papers are sell
dom seen In this country, of course the
missing heir never knows Of the good
fortune that Is awaiting him or her,
and thus. the case drags along in the
courts for an indefinite time. AS an
aid to those interested in Chancery
cases, and who believe that they are
entitled to an Inheritance, an enter
prising publisher has prepared an au-
thentic list of persons who have been
advertised for during the past $50
years, including the famous Bogardus.
Sir Francis Drake, Page, Springer.
Townley. Jennings and Harlem estates
and unsettled estates in England, Ger
many. France. Ireland, Scotland and
other countries. The list is very
long one. and not only gives the full
name of the heir that is being searched
for, but also the name and address of
the attorney having charge of the es-
tate In Chancery. Any person can Sc
cure details Of this list by sending a
2-cent stamp to the Royal Register.

Notes
BY W. II. Q.

We understand that Chris Bailey is
posing as real up to date bona fide
hero, and has story he Is handing out
to his customers and friends around
on his territory that is a regular hair
raiser According to Chris he was
considerably mixed up in a recent
holdGp of a train on the Big Four near
Muncie, and to hear Chris tell it, IL
1t had not been for his timely bravery
the chances are that the entire train,
coaches, engine, and all would have
been carried away. As it was, by his
daring. a great many valuables OF the
passengers were saved. as well as the
equipment of the railroad company.
The interesting facts of just how Chris
did really act at this time will never
be known, as no doubt a straight &C.
count Of the affair will be very hard
to obtain, but we think 1t would be
cruelty at least to and out just the
manner in which he conducted him
self on this occasion. Therefore, we
deem 1t wise to let him get all the
glory possible out of his bravery. and
congratulate him for the manner in
which he said he conducted himself.
