Cold STORAGE Cat. Meat.

A man down In Massachusetts
found a blacksnake frozen in the
snow. He took the snake up care
fully so that It would not break--it
was as stiff as the rod OF Moses in
the original form--and took 1t home
and put 1t by the fire. And It thawed
out. 1t wriggled around In the heat
and would have been all right again
II It hadn't been for the family cat.
The cat ate It.

moment and then crashed to the street, carrying a large sign with it and completely wrecking two large awnings. It was the awnings, under which McGehOn was walking at the time, that saved his life. As it was he was hurled to the street under pile of bricks. A number of people rushed to his assistance and he was taken to the Monroe house where he received attention. It was discover ed that aside from a severe shock and a bad fright he was not much the worse for wear.
 The damage to the building. aside from the injury done to the awnings, is not great. The elevated wall was surmOunted by a large canvas sign, which afforded a large exposed sur face for the action of the wind, and made the accident possible.

ENGLISH AUTHOR SPENDS SOME
 MONTHS AMONG BERBERS

When Cutcliffe Hyne, the English author, who has writer The Mar riage of Captain Kettle" was gradu- ated from Cambridge University, and started on his eventful tour around the world, he did and saw many things which afterWard were utilized in his novels, but probably the strang- est adventure he had was among the desert Berbers of Morocco. It is ouite possible that the average person who is not given to peering into odd corners knows as little about these people as the small boy, who when during an examination was asked, Who are the Berbers" replied that they are the men who cut their hair
 Being strict MOhammedans, the Ber- bers of the desert resent the intrusion of the Christians. Many travellers have learned this to their sorrow, as

THE BEAUTY OF THE WORLD

The rainbow is of quite as much use in it's way as is the rain that falls to make the corn grow.
 Clouds are not only Gods sprink- ling pots to increase the supply of potatoes. they are Gods paints which he lays upon the canvas of the even ing sky to make souls grow by their feast of beauty.
 Apple trees are not designed t0 produce apples alone. but apple blos- Soms as well, for bees and lovers eyes to feed on.
 In other words. this world is not merely a machine shop or a farm; there's d lot of heaven hid about in i;, and shy treasures only discernible in high mOOds-Dr. Frank Crane in Woman's World.

THE TRANSFER
 0F OVERLAND
The Corporation Commis- sion Hears the Applied tion for Permission and Will Probably Render a Decision Tomorrow

A brief hearing was held before the corporation commission yesterday forenoon in the matter of the ap-
 plication of the Mountain States Telegraph and Telephone company for permission to take over the prop erty of the Overland Telephone com pany.

 It was disclosed at the hearing that the sum of $432.O00 represents the purchase price of the property. the
 Mountain States company assuming all the Overlands obligations. Only a small sum will be left, it is said

It is the expressed intention of the new com ranY, according to the statements of it's representatives, to put the entire system in the best possible condition at the earliest practicable date. Also, if is their desire tO cOmpleta the ar engagements for the transfer of the stock without delay and for this pur- pose the commission has been re- quested to hand down a decision on the question of the contract as soon as possible The decision will he rendered not later than Monday.

An Auto Accident.

Mcpherson. the liveryman of Neche,
had one of the closest calls from seri-
Gus accident and yet came out with but
pecuniary loss to his car. He had been
taking some passengers to Emerson and
was returning about one o'clock Sunday
morning. At the Douglas bridge be-
tween here and Emerson he met anoth-
er auto and while turning by to get on
the approach, which is heavy filling of
earth, the car got beyond control and
struck the railing and tore everything
before it until it struck the main part of
the bridge where it turned over and
hung suspended by one wheel and the
running board. The bridge is at least
twenty feet high and made of iron. A
scantling 2x4 went through the radiator,
angled alongside the cylinders and stove
whole through the dash board and
would have pierced the man at the
wheel had not the car stopped by hit
ting the pier and toppling over. How
Mr.. Mcpherson escaped is beyond COM
prehension.
Blocks and tackles and number of
willing hands got the car back to the
road Sunday morning and it is now in
Mr.. Newell's repair shop receiving a
general overhauling, but the principal
part will be new radiator.
