HOW He EVOKED THE WINDS
Captain of BecaImcd Vessel Was
Driven to Desperate Sacrifice,
But II Succeeded

The ship had lain becalmed In a
tropical sea for three days. Mot a
breath of air stirred the mirror-like
surface Of the sea and the sails hung
limp from the yards, like drapory
carved from marble.
The captain resolved to wait no
longer for wind. He piped all hands
on deck and requested all passengers
to come forward
II must ask all of YOU" he said, ito
give me every match you have"
Wonderingly, all obeyed The cap
tain collected every match on the
ship in this manner Then he threw
them all overboard-all but one.
Then he took his pipe from his
pocket and filled 1t with tobacco. AS
crew and passengers locked breath
lessly on, he struck that one match
the only one aboard--and attempted
to light his pipe with II.
Instantly furious gale swept over
the deck. 1t extinguished the match,
but filled the sails and the good shin
plunged merrily forward on her course
again. The sacrifice had been awful,
but successful,

LIGHTS UP DARK PLACES
New Illuminating Pistol Has Advan-
tages Over tSearchlight for
Night Attacks.

During the recent extended maneu-
vers of the German army there were
many night attacks, In which use was
made of the newly introduced illumi-
mating pistols. e
According to the new regulations,
these are to be employed wherever
the configuration of the land makes
their use preferable to that of the or
binary searchlight. The machinery
necessary for the use Of the latter
device Ia very inconvenient, and espe-
Icially In rolling and otherwise diff
cult country, where the main maneu-
vers take place. 1t cannot be used to
advantage. The Illuminating pistols
have not this Disadvantage as they
are easily transported.
I Further, the searchlight is useless
III valleys and deep-lying plains, as
their rays shoot over these and leave
them apparently in still deeper shad-
ow. For this reason, such valleys
serve as excellent covers at night
against the searchlights. The illumi.
mating pistols have done away with
this advantage of shelter, az the cart.
ridges which they throw light up the
deepest and darkest gullies.
| There are two different sorts OF car.
tridges, producing respectively white
and red light. The white ones serve
for signaling purposes between widely
separated commands or divisions
even where the distance between
them ia several kilometers. The illu
minating cartridges develops light
that makes everything within zoo
meters (650 feet visible. and lasts
eight to ten seconds.--scientific Amer

SURE TO BREAK THIRD TINE
Man Knew What His spectacIes
Would Do, So He Got Ahead
of Fate.

A Jeweler In Brooklyn recently
showed the humorous phase of super
stition as it troubles some people.
"A man came into my store with
pair OF spectacles he had dropped on
the floor and broken" he said. Il have
an optician with me- A price was CIV
en- for the repairs and the work was
done. When the glasses were deliv-
cred the customer said he'd been pref
ty lucky with them. this was the first
time In threelyears they had been bro
ken. But the next day he came around
again He had dropped them and
they had broken within ten hours aft
or they had been fixed.
~ want you to make a good lob OF
It," he told me, SO they won't break
again
HE said he would call for them
When he did and when they were Civ.
en- to him he asked If had n glass
paperweight or something the least bit
heavy. My medium.sized hammer was
handy and asked him ii that would
do, wondering what he wanted them
for. He took the hammer from me
and laid the spectacles on the floor
Then he took the hammer and hit
the offending lens q hard blow There,
he said, as he Strengthened up. with
the pieces In his hand I've fixed that.
\ Now will you kindly repair them
again.?
Naturally, I wanted to know why
he had done this.
Superstition he replied I'VE al
ready broken them twice and there
was sure to be q third time. I've
brought that third time about SO
wouldn't have to lose more time than
necessary Now, II You will have
them fixed / guess they'll never break

Cured in western town where he
was playing an engagement. There
was an act on the bill in which po-
liceman had to chase a thief across
the stage without catching him. The
cops part was so simple that it was
always given to some employee of the
house. There was prop" man in
that town to whom this little task
was assigned and he felt like real
actor. In the middle of the weeks

on, the prop" man said to the player
who had the fugitive business;

Wednesday there was not a
spud to be had at the stores in
Montrose. but the following day
quantities were received from
Grand Junction. the first OF this
years crop and if you want them
they cost only eight cents a
pound. That beats sugar and
makes the latter look like a cop.
per penny beside an eagle.
All of which reminds us that /.
N. Parker told US the other day
that he wants to advise the far
mcrs in the Uncompahgre valley,
where the finest spuds in the
country are grown, not to contract
their potatoes at any price yet. A
dollar per 100 might have looR ed
large to them some years, but this
wear they will be able to name
their own prices. He showed US
a clipping from a Kansas paper
telling there was a famine in
spuds in Kansas, that the great
Kaw river valley was wholly des.
titute of crop of potatoes, and
Kansans were advised that they
must stop eating spuds until the
great Colorado crop comes in.
Copies of other Kansas papers
have been handed US by |. N.
Pepper from his old home which
tell OF the drought in that state,
that the artificial ice plants have
had to close down because of lack
of water to freeze and that thous-
ands of fish in the rivers and

the people to prevent the spread

FOR GOVERNOR OF KANSAS

Arthur Capper publisher of tae
Topeka Capital" and of the
Farmer, Mail and Breeze, IS a
candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor of Kan
sas at the primaries of 1912. Mr..
Capper has been one of the pru
dent and trustworthy leaders in
the movement in which Victor
Murdock, Governor Stubs. and
William Allen White are at the
front. He has never shown per-
sonal political ambition. and his
candidacy is in response to gen
uine demand. AS he says, it is a
constructive age in our politics.
and Kansas has been among the
constructive States. The burdens
of taxation have been more fairly
distributed; the honesty and eff
cheney of administration have been
increased; elective machinery has
been altered to transfer power
from political machines to the ma
jority of voters, Mr. Capper
states his full platform; it includes
the non partizan administration of
schools. colleges. charitable and
penal institutions; stricter cxac-
tions from Office holders; freedom
from pre- election deals. Mr.. Cap
per is young man whohas by his
own efforts earned an honorable
success. We are strongly convinc-
ed that he is we'll equipped. NOR
