origin to practical Joke. Fifteen
years ago plot of land belonging to
a resident became. or account of It's
neglected state, such an oyesore to
his fellow-townsmen that they took
the matter into their own hands and
dug II up. The owner resolved to
profit by their labor and plant the
field. but on his next visit to the spot
he found to his annoyance. that It had
already been sown with peas.
Soon, however. anger gave place to
amusement. and he laughngly told the
perpetrators Of the joke that they
would have to eat the peas, says Lon.

did. and from that day the celebration
has grown yearly In popularity. Over

FALSE SYMPATHY

Since the arrest Of John Nc
Namara at Indianapolis on a
charge on'chmplicity in the dynamit-
ing Of THE Times building in Los
Angeles where twenty innocent
people lost their lives, there has
been great roar 90 up from
unions over the arrest and kidnap-
ping Of this person. 1t is also
stated that discriminating evidence
was found in. his belongings con.
sisting of the workings of an
nfernal machine, and some dyna-
mite. What on earth a peaceful
citizen is doing with this death
dealing mat erial is hard to say,
AMI If this Mcnamara is innocent
he must show the citizens what he
was doing with the articles in his
possession.
On top of this the labor unions
are raising fund to defend the
man. Why any union or association
should claim all kinds of sympathy
is more than the average man can
understand. If Mcnamara is a
guilty man ne should be swung
from the gallows. A fair and
impartial trial will tell the story.
If guilty no union on earth wants
his kind. If innocent he will not
have a hard time establishing the
fact. Circumstances seldom hang
Q man and it will take plenty to
hang this suspect. Should he be
guilty the unions should assist in
his prosecution as the internal
machine only goes to wreck union
ism. The two wont work together.
II the Times building was destroyed
by dyamite under the direction Of
Mcnamara or any other man It Is
hoped that they will be arrested
and their necks stretched. II is
the most cowardly numbering in
the world as 1t takes innocent men
and women, does irreparable
damage and decrys the principles
that every honest union man is
working for. 1t is such work as
the counter arrestinR of the
detective who made the capture of
Mcnamara that brings about petty
tribulations and only works against
unionism. II this man is innocent
let It be proven in open court
where he:will have good defenders.
The state will have to bring the
burden Of guilt. Mcnamara has
been landed in Los Angeles and II
matters not what charge is brought
against Blu rms, the detective. the
case will now be aired in cour,
and the people can be relied upon
to fix the Judgment of guilt o,
innocence. - Carson Appeal.

Nature uses no black in any part OF
her work. 1 will not except the black
berry and the so called black pansy.
On a bright. clear day shadows on the
snow are pale ultramarine blue; under
a blue sky in midsummer the color of
the place lake is cobalt blue and the
shadows on the grass are lilac; on a
weathered gray boardwalk they are
nearly as blue as the sky itself. The
palpitating atmosphere of warm
July day lifts the coloring of the land
scape to a higher but softer key in
stead Of reducing it with gray, and in
the autumn. when the sugar naples
leaves are turned 10 gold. the shad-
ows on the trunk and every gray rock
in the vicinity are tinged with strong

Some persons are unable to perceive
any bitter taste when qufnine is ap-
piled only to the tip OF the tongue.
At the back of the tongue the bitter
ness Of the drug is perceived at once.
An explanation OF the curious selec-
tive powers exhibited by the tongue
is that a variety of nerve 6bers are
present in that organ, each kind being
sensitive only to one of the four prtn-
cipaI classes Of taste. These nerve e.
bers are distributed in varying num-
bers over different parts Of the tongue
at the tip. for example, the nerves that
are sensitive to sweet and acid stimuli
are most numerous. and accordingly
in that locality those tastes are the
ones most readily perceived. At the
back of the tongue. on the contrary.
the nerve fbers concerned in the per.
ception of bitterness prevail over the
others.-New York Press.
