LIONESs CHEWs BOYS HAND
Boy Lacerated While Feeding Animal
Fresh Cut Beef.


New York, Aug John Ferguson.
sixteen years old, will know better in
the future than to feed a lion, to whom
fingers taste just as good as fresh
meat.
Ferguson hand was seized and
bitten severely by Old Rosie, the
grandmother lion of the Central
park menagerie. The lioness' teeth had
torn the boys hand before he sue.
ceeded in pulling it from her jaws.
Ferguson and another boy went to
the menagerie, carrying in a newspa.
per fresh cut of meat they had pur-
chased. They approached the cage
where Old Rosie was asleep and held
the meat close to the lioness' nose.
Leo and Alice, grandchildren" of the
old lioness, saw the boys and began to
growl from their cage, adjoining that
in which Rosie was sleeping.
The growls awoke the lioness. Rosie
had been fed not long before, but she
is known by the keepers to possess
an excellent appetite. After smiling
the meat, the lioness stretched her
neck and closed her jaws on it with a
sudden snap. The Ferguson boy was
not quick enough and his fingers were
caught. Rosie calmly began to chew
the boys hand along with the beef.
The youngsters screams attracted
several keepers and many visitors.
The men tried vainly to make Rosie
release the boys hand. but the old
lioness paid no attention and kept On
sinking her teeth into the meat and
the youngsters fingers. The keepers
were just opening the cage door, and
one of them was running to the boys
aid with heavy iron bar, when Fer
guson almost by main strength pulled
his hand from the lioness' mouth.

YOUR OWN LIFE A QUARRY
Out of IL You Are TO Mould and Chisel
Character, Said the Poet
Goethe.

It was Goethe who said: Life is
quarry" He does not mean the life
outside of yourself. He means your
own life, that separate part of Gods
universe over which he has set you
a. supreme master, king to rule the
dominion. Goethe says that this life.
your own life, his life. everybody's life,
is q quarry. A quarry is a place
where stone is gotten. The value Of
q quarry is always in the quality Of its
stone Now life, If it be quarry, Is
simply place containing something
that is valued, uniformed but with
skill may be wrought into what is val
liable. The stone from the quarry is
chiselled into form. A greater value
comes from the chiselling of this
stone. Michael Angeles Moses" is
witness Of what great artist may do
with a chisel upon block Of marble.
Really, then, II your own life is q
quarry, you yourself must be the art
list, and out of the material of the
quarry you are going to make what is
beautiful and worthful to the world.
Let me complete the entire quotation:
Life is a quarry out of which we are
to mould and chisel and complete .

northwestern Italy No one knows
how much marble is contained In this
range of Italian mountains. Though
they have been opened for 1000 years,
and, as stated, the mining methods
are attended with enormous waste, 1t
is known that vast beds Of the marble
still exist. BY digging longer and
longer tunnels and shafts an mex

the beds are so extensive that some
Of the mines are worked at a height
Of over mile above the sea, whils
many of the workings are over 1000

advantage to the italians, however.

lewdness. filed by Andrew Olson. OF
Lacrosse. Wis, has now taken the
aggressive in the case. The charge
against Wicks was dismissed Friday
morning. 1t being thought there was
not sufficient evidence to hold him.
whereupon he promptly filed suit
against the white man from Wiscon
sin. asking for $500 damages for false
arrest. and s35 for board for Olson's
wife and children.
1t will be remembered that Olson
came here after his runaway wife
claiming that she and her children
were living with Wicks on the farm.
He filed information against both
Wicks and his wife. but when the
sheriff reached the farm yesterday ne
learned that Mrs. Olson had left the
Saturday before. N'icks. however. was
arrested and brought to town, and his
trial set for this afternoon. This
morning. however, the case against
him was dismissed. and Olsons errand
here to locate his runaway wife. and
the children. proved fruitless one.
