ROBBERS HOLD UP TRAIN FOR
 HALF MILLION
Special from United Press.o

Special from United Press.)
 Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 2-One of the boldest train robberies in the history of the southwest was attempted near here, early yesterday, when two men held up the express train on the Ok lahoma & Gulf Division of the Rock Island Railroad and, after successfully gaining entrance to the express car, sought to blow the safe which was known to contain nearly half mill lion dollars. The robbers, however, blew a smaller safe containing noth- ing and then fled without tampering with the strong box containing for tune.
 It was at first believed that the rob- bers' had been entirely successful in their undertaking and the report was sent out that the express car had been footed. It is believed the rob bers had received information of the great amount of money being carried as their attempted robbery was well timed
 After holding up the train by flag ging it, they boarded the express car. The messenger was bound and gag .ged and the engineer forced to back his train onto a siding. The safe which the robber believed contained $500,000 was then blown and the robbers drop ped from the train and fled
 After the news of the attempt had been sent in, stating that the express car had been robbed, the conductor bound messenger and then discovered that the robbers had blown the wrong safe.
 Posses started in pursuit of the robbers but failed to find any trace of them.

UNREST IN AUSTRIA
Due to High Cost of Living, Scarcity
 of Dwellings and New Taxes

Vienna, Nov. 2Despite the drastic punishment meted out by the courts to the prisoners arrested in connec- tion with the bloody demonstrations on "Red Sunday" September IT, there is continued unrest among the work ing classes over the high food prices, the scarcity of dwellings and new taxes levied. The recent attack by a would-be assassin on the Minister of Justice during a debate in the Reich. stag, is but another symptom of the feeling that prevails. Now the sen- tencing of a IA year old school boy to prison for throwing stone during the ''Red Sunday riot and that upon mere hearsay testimony. the arrest not be- ing made until some days later. has stirred even the government organs to words of sympathy for the lad, and cautiously @worded warnings to the governmnt that there is such a thing as going too far in dealing with the people.

osLER ExCEPTs HIMSELF

Oxford, England, Nov. 2-Sir Will liam Osler. regius professor of medi- cine at Oxford, who has accepted the appointment to the Silliman lecture ship at Yale for 1912, is being kidded.
 Ever since Sir William (then plain Dr. Osler) said in his farewell speech at Johns Hopkins, when he was leav- ing for Oxford, that men ought to re- tire at 40 and be chloroformed at 6O, he has been sorry he said it. For Sir William is now past SO, and, if his theory is good, then Yale is get ting wornout lecturer who ought to be chloroformed.
 "I didn't advance the theory as mine," says Osler; 1T was quoting Anthony Trollope."
 He still insists, however that the ''too old at 40. useless at CO., rule is a good general rule, only it doesn't apply to him. 'I am an exception" ,"

VALUE OF HUMAN BODY Its Constituent Elements As Found by German Scientific Writer

Berlin. Nov. atThe intrinsic value of man or woman weighing 150 pounds, according to his or her con- stituent elements. is $750. This is the conclusion of a German scientific writer as published here. 'aThis value is represented by the phosphor, lime iron, sulphur and albumen in body,'' says the writer. 'eThe fat is worth about $2.50; of iron there is hardly enough to make even a small nail an inch long. There. is sufficient lime to whitewash a pretty good sized chicken house. The phosphor would be sufff- cient to put heads on 2,2oO matches, and enough magnesia to make a pret- ty firework. The average human body contains enough albumen for 100 eggs. There is possibly small tea spoonful of sugar and pinch of salt"

At present, they are really self-goverufng All they need Is a central council consisting of an upper and lower house, in place of the Manchu dynas- ty. which Is thoroughly hated by all true Chinamen.

THEY URGE BRACE SUICIDE,

Dresden, Nov. 2"Over-pop tends to create causes of war and is in itself a direct cause of war; the checking of the birth rate, resulting in decrease in population, would be one of the greatest factors to bring about universal peace in the world.'' This is the resolution adopted by the Fourth International Congress of the Walthusian League, which has just closed it's session here. The Walthu- sians believe in race suicide't on the ground that the world is over-populat- ed, and sterilization was term much used by radical speakers at the congress, to attain this desired ob- ject. Other speakers more conserva- tive, urged celibacy.

FLAGS MADE INTO BREECHEs

London, Nov. "A correspondent of the Times, who signs himself '.An
 Exiled American" says he has seen the spectacle, New York, at the Empire Theatre. and it has made him fighting mad
 The scene is supposed to be a steam ship pier in New York. There is a good deal of what the exile calls "riotous nonsense" sNew York cus- toms officials Gin the spectacle) take bribes openly. All these things dis please the critic. but it is the use made of the American flag that of fends him most. "The flag covers the cargo" he writes ."'It stamps the scene as America, and 1t is not American or anything like it. Nor, if you will make American flags into brooches for large-hipped young women, does that add to its dignity"

Great Painters Of oIden Time.

The two most celebrated painters
of antiquity we're Apelles and Zeux-
is, both Greeks. Apelles was born
at Calophon and vas a contempt
rary of Alexander the Great. 1t is
said that one day while Alexander
was looking at a painting of a horse
by Apelles and making some sharp
criticisms upon it a horse neighed
toward the picture, w%hereupon
Apelles remarked that the horse
knew more of art than the king.
His work was almost as natural as
nature itself. And to Apelles Zeuxis
was a "close second" 1t is said that
Zeuxis painted cherries so perfectly
that the birds pecked at them,
thinking them real.

It is reported taat the cattle on
the range west of the Missouri
river are taring very good this
winter. This has been a first class
winter so far for cattle. There
has been a very light snowfall and
the cattle have been able to forage
and get plenty to eat. 1t is stated
that the cattle which have been
grazing and getting the cured
grass from beneath the snow are
in much better condition than
some of those that have been kept
in corrals and provided with fod-
der. Another condition which
has helped has been the absense
of storms of cold rain or sleet,
which are always very bad for

ELECTRIC POWER FROM WIND
Economical Lighting Plants Can BE
Based on IT, With Gasoline =
Motors to Help.

There has never been time when
the forces of nature were subjected
10 such searching scrutiny to deter.
mine their availability for the deyel-
opment of mechanical power as they
receive at present. This arises main
ly from the progressive use Of cleo
tricity.
Among other things It Is believed
that the wind can be utilized to a far
greater extent than in ths past espe-
cially for electrical lighting With this
object in view the average state Of
the wind has been investigated In Eng.
land. It is found that for approx
mately half the time the mean wind
velocity is ten miles an hour, and for
about one-third Of the time fifteen
miles. In the winter the average IS
higher. The great difficulty arises
from the calm periods. which may
last days. or even a week. but Il has
been shown that economical lighting
plants can be based upon wind power
by providing gasoline motors to take
up the work whenever the wind falls.
