Henrik Andersen, a twenty-three-
year-old Danish sailor who has for
several years done service on the
English steamer Milton, had a most
strange experience few weeks ago
while on the way from Rosario, In Tho
Argentine Republic, to England. When
in the center of the Atlantic Andersen
fell overheard without any of his ship
mates paying any attention to it, for
none of them were around when il
at Southampton, Eng, the captain OF
the ship reported to Andersen's rela-
tives in Copenhagen that he had fallen
overheard and been drowned and that
his body could never be recovered. On
Dec rs, however, the selfsame Ander-
sen who fell overheard from the YES
sci in question bobbed up at the DAN
ish consulate in Buenos Ayres. He
related at the consulate that after he
had fallen overheard he had succeed
ed in keeping himself above water b.
means of swimming for FIVE hours.
when he was picked up by the English
trawler Notisement from CardiH.
which finally landed him in Buenos
Ayres. One might well imagine the
happiness and the JOY which was
evinced when Andersen came to visit
his old mother and brothers and sis
tiers between Christmas and New
Years.
During the past ten years Iceland,

been making rapid progress, especial
" insofar as the fishing industry is
concerned. Hitherto the whaling ia
dustry has been in the lead but OF
latter years the fishing industry has
been making as rapid and even more
rapid strides The general trade con-
ditions of the islands have also vastly
improved. Some time ago an English
American syndicate offered to build
harbor in Reykjovik, on the condition
that the syndicate In question would
be allowed to receive all the big in
come and the profits from the harbof
for a period of thirty years. The city
council, however, rejected the offer
and has decided to erect it's own har-
Dor at q cost of 100000 crowns
Director Rudolph Wiese, for a NUM-
Der of years the manager of the large

has been placed under arrest for em-
Bezzlement The other day he made
a confession that his entertainments
involved at least $4,000 crowns and
that his operations in this line have
been carried on for period OF ave
years. Some time ago he was COM
PEELED to make an assignment, when It
was learned that his debts amounted
to 10000 crowns. The director In

WHEN THE KING MOTORS.

1t may not be generally known
that the drivers Of the motor cars
of the king, the prince Of Wales and
the duke Of COnnaught are all pO-
licemen. The late kings instruc-
tons we're: run no risks, but lose
no time"
The latter clause used to be obeyed
so implicitly that Lord DENLY once
when returning from Newmarket a
%horse's length" behind the king, on
whom he was in attendance, was
stopped in his motor by the police
at Barnet-a happy illustration Of
the principle that the king can do
no wrong. The royal drivers do not
rely on a motor horn alone. Along
side them on the box there sits a
footman, who plays a key bugle ia
announce the approach Of the car

WHY CUCKOO BUILDS NO NEST.

A Danish legend about the cuckoo
is very curious. 1t relates that when
in the early spring time its voice is
first heard in the woods every village
girl kisses her hand and asks the
question Cuckoo, cuckoo, when shall
| be married ?" And the old peo-
pie, borne down with age and rheu-
matism, ask Cuckoo, cuckoo, when
shall I be released from this worlds
cares?" The bird in reply continues
to sing Cuckoo !" And as many
times as he sings they count one
year to the fulflment of their de-
sires.
1t is said that the poor bird has so
many questions put to her that be-
fore she realizes it the building sea-
son has gone by and she is forced to
put her eggs into the hedge-spar-
rows nest.

BRIDGE OVER PANAMA CANAL
One VIII Be Built Across Big Ditch
at Empire 175 Feet Above
Water Level.

A bridge 175 feet high is to be
thrown across the Panama canal at
Empire. Only the absolute neces-
sity of maintaining uninterrupted
railroad communication across the
isthmus has led the engineers to
sanction the construction Of any sort
Of an obstruction across the water
way. But as the necessity exists the
board has decided to construct a
bridge at that point at 115 feet
above the water level.
A height of 1876 feet at high tide
is considered sufficient for the
bridges in New York harbor, but the
top of the smokestackS of the two
ocean giants now building, the OIym-
pic and Titanic, will tower $50 feet
above the water level when those
ships are l~ightdraft. The Panama
canal bridge will carry a railroad
covering a width of about 16 feet,

and one or more foot walks six feet

HERE'S A WAY TO
SAVE DOCTOR BILLS
Physicians Give Free Advice by
Which Parents May Profit.

It's a matter of general interest
just now how ones physical condi-
ton can be got into shape to best
receive the benefits of the summer
season. Especially is this true to
the children. They have become
run down by a winter of unnatural
manner Of living because Of illcon-
sidered food and much time spent
indoors. Spring comes with its sun
shine, its fresh vegetables and all
else invigorating, but the children
are in no condition to receive ma
lures remedies.
Many parents call in the family
physician. Many other parents take
advantage of what the physician
told them when he was first called
in consultation. All good family
physicians say: GIVE the children
Castoria." Healthy parents know
this remedy of old, for they took it
themselves as children. 1t was more
than thirty years ago that Castoria
made a place for itself in the house
hold. 1t bore the signature of
Charles II, Fletcher then, as it
does today. The signature is its
guarantee, which is accepted in
thousands of homes where there are
children.

big families. DR.. William ]. Nc.
Cram, Of Omaha, Neb., is the faith.

, families. Here is what he says:

your great medicine, and aside from
my own family experience l have, il
e my years of practice, found Cas-
toria a popular and efficient remed!
E in almost every home"
Charles H. Fletcher has received
hundreds of letters from prominen
I physicians who have the same es
S TEEN for Castoria that DR.. Nc
Cam has. Not only do these ply

their own families, but they pre-

Revision downward on the
things the farmer must buy, as
well as revision downward on
the things he produces.
This is the keynote of the
democratic reciprocity and tar
iff program.
1t differs radically from the
reciprocity program contemplate
ed by the Republicans, which
was: Greater downward re-
vision ON the products of the
farmers than ON the products Of
the trusts.
Here are the articles that will
60 on the free list under the
democratic program, each Of
which would have remained
heavily taxed under the republi-
ear program:
Lumber dressed meats and
meat products, flour, boots and
shoes, sewing machines, sad
dies and saddlery, wire fenc-
ing, baling wire, cotton bagging
and ties, burlaps and %agricultur-
al implements, including plows,
harrows, reapers, binders and
mowers.
This is not all of the democrat
ic program for the extra SEES
sion. Following as soon as pos
sible after the passage of the
reciprocity and free list bills,
the tariff will be revised down
ward on wooden and cotton
goods.
The articles in these schedules
on which the greatest reductions
will be made will be blankets
underwear and mems, wOmen's
and children's clothing. The
Democratic idea contemplates the
placing of the lowest tax on the
cheaper grades of wearing ap
parel used by the poor. Under
the Payne-Aldrich law article
used principally by the poo.
are taxed twice as much as thu
higher priced articles used b!
the rich.
In addition to reciprocity ant
tariff revision downward vii
come bills providing for the di
rect election of United State
senator's, publicity of cam
paign contributions before in
stead of after election, and SEP
arate statehood for Arizona an.
New Mexico.

porarily vacant may be per

have the right to occupy them

Again, while the tariff revision
was under discussion, LaFol-
lette was insulted, and he said:
81 warn you hat if you re
fuse to consider every PROPOSE
ton advanced in behalf of the
public and carry out your de-
ermination to make this tariff
legislation but the Instrument
by which special interests may
enrich themselves by unjust eX-
actions from the public, the pub
lie will hold you responsible and
prove its resentment as certain
ly as elections are held"
When the Senate convened on
April 4, L~aFollette's name waa
called and he answered. But
the names of Aldrich and Hale
were not called.
