The catacombs At Rome were the

They are about $50 miles in extent
and are said to have contained 6.0oo.-
900 bodies. During the prosecutions
Of the Christians by Nero and other
Roman smpsrors the oataoombs were
used for hiding places. Under Diocls-

were scarcely seated at the table
when a small cyclone struck our
city.
H. w. Konkel has bought 100
acres. in. 3-23-43 from H. Koen with

One of the principal events of the

Doughty and J. A. Woodcock, as
sisted by w. c. Markham and

That little breeze on Thurs
day night went to extremes in its
playfulness. It's all right SO long
as the wind toys with tempting
sheds and outhouses. and sets them
askew with the world, but that par
ticular blow raised the wind to
have a rafting time with tin
roofs, awnings, stables and the like.

Lamar's Chautauqua

Not all the speakers can be an
nounced at this time perhaps, but
Chautauquas this year are forced
to hold back on their big men be-
cause of the elections.

the big speeches that can be rung
in.
The band is in Italy right now.
It is the same band that made the

entirely new program under Victor's
direction.

panied by her distinguished hus-
band. James G. MacDermid. the
composer. Mr.. MacDermid is the
head of a large musical publish
ing house in Chicago and has writ
ten much of the music Mrs. MacDer-
mid will sing in her Chautauqua
recitals. He Is an accompanied OF
rare ability.

played some in eastern Chautau-
quas, never in the west. She Is
the greatest violinist of the Chau-
tauqua platform, and Is the Maude |
Powell of the ChautauQua.
There are seven musical CON- |
panies-one for each day of the
ChautauQua.

highest paid man in his line. He
has equipment that cost several
thousand dollars. He is right
now building new equipment and
a special program for the Chau-
tauQua.
The Raweis Company are three
native New Zealanders.
Belle Kearney is the greatest
woman lecturer and author the
South has produced in this gener-
alton. She is the only woman
that has ever presented any meas
ure before a committee of the
United States senate. She has
travelled in every civilized country
ON the globe and many that are
not civilized. She has lectured in
many foreign countries and in every
state in the union including Alas

Cabieurams.

This is how to play cablegrams.
A certain man went to Europe leav-
ing his family at home. He was either
too indoent or too busy to write often.
But he could not afford to cable lengthy
dispa tches, and so he wrote his wife
that he could condense each cable
gram into single word by using only
initial letters. The first message he
sent was "B r 0 w NJ
While he was congratulating himself
upon outwitting the cable company by
sending FIVE words In one the family
at home were distracted over their
varying interpretations of the message.
His daughter thought 1t meant Bought
ring on Wednesday, night" and began
guessing just what kind of ring 1t was.
His wife in her anxiety read 1t, big
rain out wet neuralgia" Other guess
es at the intended meaning differed
quite as widely.
In playing the game any word may
be used instead of Brown" Let the
leader. who is supposed 10 be the trav-
eler, announce the word, keeping the
meaning to himself, and let each play
err write his guess of the intended
meaning on a slip of paper. IL there
are prizes the one who offers the near
est guess wins.

The Auctioneer.

This game is played by any number
of persons. one of whom acts as auc-
tioneer. Each Of the other players
writes on slip of paper the name of
some article and folds it over to hide
what he has written. The nuctioneer
then marks one of the slips and adds a
blank one, making one more slip than
there are persons playing, and mixes
them all together in hat.
Each OF the company In turn draws
a slip. and he who gets the blank is
put up at auction by the auctioneer,
each player bidding the article on his
slip. The holder of the marked slip
gets the person Knocked down to him.
He may then require his purchase to
perform some trick or feat, and after
that the game is repeated
The auctioneer, instead of marking
a slip. may simply open one and look
at it, afterward accepting the bid of
the person who draws whenever 1t
may be offered One slip always re-
mains in the hat. The auctioneer
should look at it, and If 1t be the blank
or the marked slip all must be shut
fed over and the players draw>again.

The Ink BAD Sauid.

When the squid is alarmed the ink
bag that connects with the siphon
opens its valve and cloud Of black
fluid is elected into the water, where
It becomes quickly diffused, forming
an effectual bar to pursuit. The squids
also have faculty of changing their
color with great rapidity, and when
laboring under great excitement waves
of color seem to pass over them in
quick succession. Their motions are
extremely rapid, darting along with
the velocity of light, now rushing into
a school Of small fry tail first, turning
quickly to seize victim and press it
against the birdlike beak. where. by
making triangular nips, the vertebrae
is generally instantly severed. 1t Is
interesting to note that the bite is al
ways in the same place-the neck

The Ionu Way Around.

There were two barges that were to
be taken to point forty-seyen miles
away, but it took them a long time to
get there. They had to go 10000 miles
In order to get to that nearby point.
You see, they were down at the 18TH
mus of Panama, at the Atlantic end of
the new canal, and they were to be
taken to the Pacific end. But the canal
is not finished, and so it could not car
ry the boats, which were too big to go
by railroad without beirg taken to
pieces. So they had to be towed all the
way around the end of South America
the south end, that Island come up
the other side.

Liquor Traffic Supports Ten Million Non
Producers, Says Prohibition Can

Waukesha, Wis, Aug. l2.The Rev.
DIR. Charles II. Mead of New York, in
speech here Saturday notifying Eugene
w. Chain OF Tucson, Ariz., OF his
nomination for president on the Pro-
hibition ticket, said:
During the past few months, as n
nation We have been Inundated and
oilr people, regardless of political aifilla-
lions, have hung their heads with shame
as they beheld the president OF these
United States, and the only living eX-
president, out on the stump calling each
other liars. and covering each other with
political mud
Mr.. Shatln, in accepting the noination,
said:
'The liquor traffic takes considerably
more than hundred million bushels Of
grain each year to make liquor for the
United States Nearly a million men
are engaged in making and distributing
liquor. They support families OF four
millions more. To start WITH we have
here an army of five millions of non
producers all consumers of food, cloth
ing and shelter the necessaries of life.
As result OF this traffic more than two
hundred thousand men are in iails and
penitentiaries, all consumers and non
producers. Then add to this army, cuort
officials, policemen, employees and at
tendants of poorhouses, jails, peniten-
tiaries. insane and other hospitals for
the dependent classes caused by the
liquor traffic and you will have an army
of nearly ten millions who consume and
do not produce any of the necessaries
of life.
Herein lies the cause of the high
cost of living"

when insistent voices from within the

in his little pavilion at the end OF the

Of an interview with any holder of the

were the only tangible results Of his
experiments as printer and type

he dreams Of exploiting the jewels Of

Brothers NeCktieS

! Brother VIII had a number of nice
silk ties that were not worn out, but
he was tired of wearing them, so one
afternoon I got some Dy-o-la from the
druggist and had a lot of fun dyeing
those neckties different colors. Billie
was very much pleased with the result.
Dyo-la costs only Zoe at drug stores
and comes in 10 different colors, from
which you can make all kinds of COM
binations for dyeing all kinds of goods,

The Banana.

The banana plant bears fruit every
year 1t is one of the most productive
plants in the world and feeds more
people than any other known to man.
1t has been estimated that more than
third Of the human race depend al
most wholly for their existence upon
the banana. That the fruit is amply
able to sustain life. and to sustain 1t
in a very satisfactory manner. is dem.
onstrated by the fact that the millions
who live on practically nothing else
get along very well with it and appear
to be as strong and active as those
who live on other kinds of food.
