col. ARE sLuPsKY. HERO

Kansas City Journal: Now that
congress has convened and Colonel
Roosevelt has emerged from fullginous
silence to deliver himself of pentup
political observations in the interests
Of a languishing race. we have the
opportunity to pay a belsted but new
ertheless enthusiastic tribute to the
admirable Col. Abe SIupslty OF St.
Louis, hero of a mighty achievement
In the cause Of scientific advancement,
Heretofore Colonel Slupsky has had
only a local hold upon fame. Save In
the international limburger cheese
eating contests and for his record at
putting the pretzel he has not figured
heavily in the news outside of ST
Louis. But now Colonel Slupsky is
knocking loudly at the doors of the
hall Of fame with the butt end OF an
empty beer bottle.
Only a few days ago Colonel Abe
completed remarkable feat that has
made him the idol Of the city of suds
For thirty continuous and successive
days this doughty man drank twenty
bottles Of beer each twenty four
hours and on the last day Of his trial
he took twenty additional bottles "for
good measure" thereby winning $3.50
and suit of clothes. 1t is recorded
that when the Ave hundred and ninty-
ninth bottle of beer had trickled
down the Slupslky throat he walked
enthusiastically a table where
sat the board OF umpires and nibbled
at such dainties as olives, celery, fish,
salad, roast beef, potatoes and plum
pudding, with half a loaf of rye bread
to give fine and sustaining substance
to the menu. Then he beamed joy
ously upon his fellows and through
force Of habit ordered more beer.

FIERCE BATTLE WITH
 OWL IN PENNSYLVANIA
Farmer May Die of Wounds Inflicted
 by the Bird.

Washington, Pa, June 2s.-Physi- clans holds out little hope for the re- covery of Philip Cruzan, a wealthy farmer residing at West Alexander fifteen miles west of here, who is suf- fering from terrible wounds inflicted in a battle with a huge owl at his home Cruzan, who is very feeble while walking across his front yard a few days ago, was struck in the face by the sowl, which in its blind flight apparently collided with Cruzan unin- tentionally. The big bird fastened it's talons in Cruzan's collar and aimed a vicious attack with it's beak at the aged mans face.
 Cruzan was unable to tear the bird which was tremendous one of it's species, from it's hold. The owl ap- peared unusually vicious and ferecious in it's attack and soon had Cruzan blind from the blood which coursed over his eyes Cruzan called feebly for help. but no one heard him. Exhaust ed, he finally sank to the ground, where he was completely at the mercy of the owl. He was found some time later unconscious, with the owl still peckin 2 and c1awing him with beak and taIons The bird when killed measured almost three feet in length.
 Physicians stated that the sight of one eye had been permanently de- stroyed. Hope for his recovery was abandoned when blood poisoning de- veloped.

A GLAND AND DIET
 AFFECT BIRTH RATE
Medical Man Thinks Thyroid May In-
 fIuence Size of Families.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 2e.-That the mysterious thyroid gland, in combina- tion with the effects of various diets, may exert direct influence for large or small families, was one of the in teresting inferences drawn from a scientific narrative of experiments conducted with mice. placed before the American Medical association by Dr. Reid Hunt of Washington, D. c.
 In his experiments with the thyroid gland Dr. Hunt observed remarkable effects. He fed three groups of four mice for four months and found that fecundity or sterility depended on the activity or idlenes sof the gland.
 One group of mice was fed on oat- meal and liver. This stimulated the activity of the gland and at the end of the four months there were no lit tie mice. On the other hand, the sec ond group, which had crackers, milk and eggs, increased to 101 in the peril cd.
 Cornmeal and milk greatly reduced the birth rate in a third group of four mice. Fed on tfis diet they had 69 young mice in four months. Whether like experiments would produce sim liar results among al 1animals, includ- ing man, Dr. Hunt did not say.

STEAMSHIPS COLLIDE IN A HEAVY FOG
Score Thrown Into the Briny but No
 Lives Lost.

Quebec, June 29.-The steamsh ps Arannore and General Wolfe. grop- ing their way in the dark through a heavy fog, collided early today five miles below Murray bay. The General Wolfe was struck a sma shing blow on the starboard side and sank within thirty minutes in thirty fathoms of water. No lives were lost.
 Both vessels launched their lifeboats almost at the moment of collision. 4 score or more persons on the crippled steamer, including seven nuns, made off in the boats for the Aranmore, but several aboard the General Wolfe were hurled into the water by the impact They struggled for several minutes in the water, guiding their rescuers in life boats by their cries. When all were accounted for, the Aranmore brought them to port.
 The General Wolfe carried down a valuable cargo, portion of which was 300 cases of salmon destined for the United States. Ship and cargo were insured. Both vessels were owned by Holiday Brothers of this city. The officers and crew declare the fog was so thick that no one was to blame for the collision.
