True Hero.

Many stories have been told Of the
heroism Of the Albanians, whose
country is at the present moment be-
ing devastated by the war in the Bal.
kans. An incident showing how in.
born is the courage Of that daring
people has just been related by a
British war correspondent, Captain
Trapmann.
He was cycling alone an Albanian
road one day. when he came across a
bright little girl Of about six and a
boy Of five. The girl was asking for
bread. He got Off and spoke to her,
and she Immediately understood he
was foreigner. and 1t appeared to
her that he could not be anything but
a Turk. At once both children look
ed terrified. and then to his surprise
and admiration the little fellow caught
him by the legs and shouted to his
sister, "Run!"

Conductor Clark and Fireman Rioh-
ards captured two runaways from the
Golden industrial school near Forks
Greek, Monday morning. An alarm
had been sent out and the authori-
ties notified to be on the lookout
for them. When found. they threat
ened to beat up Clark and Richards,
they being armed with clubs. Only
the fear that they possibly had gums
saved their captors from bodily harm.
They were brought up on the morn
ing train and turned over to the
Sheriff who took them down on the
afternoon train.
They gave their names as w. c.
Johnson. of LaPlata county, and c.
Gaar. of Cheyenne. Each was about
10 years of age. and they appeared

White of seIborne'. Portrait.

Bargains continue to be made on
the streets of London, and naturalists
and antiquarians in the old country
have been greatly excited by the lat
est Of these; for it relates to portrait
of the celebrated naturalist, the IA
nous Rev. Gilbert White Of Sell
borne, which was picked up recently
at the Caledonian market for a few
shillings. The Importance of the pic
ture lies in the fact that it is the only
portrait of Gilbert White Of which
there is knowledge, and probably the
only one in existence. Indeed repre-
sentatives of the White family have
denied that any portrait or sketch was
ever made of him. The newly discov.
cred portrait, which is row considered
very valuable, is attributed by experts
to Thomas Robinson, an eighteenth
century artist, who did work for the
naturalist's brother, and was probably
painted about the year 1775.

II Cannot Be Done.

This is a story appropriate to
spring.
The hero was a great comic artist,
and one day he felt inspired to draw
caricature Of a woman's hat. The
picture was 80 funny that he almost
had to laugh at It himself; but when
he showed 1t to his wife she never
broke a smile.
Don't you like it?" inquired the
artist.
Like it?" she replied. "of course ]
like It! It's the dearest, sweetest.
loveliest hat I ever saw in my life.
Why do you waste your time on those
horrid comic pictures when you are
capable Of designing beautiful thingr
like this? I'm going right down to
have my milliner make me one Just
like It." And she did.

BILLIONS OF HORSE POWER
Enormous Amount Of Electric gnsrpy
Developed In the Central Sta
tions Of America.

Twelve billion horsepower. That 10
the combined electrical power output
Of the 1900 central stations in the
United States. Can you conceive what
these figures actually mean? asks the
Electrical News.
One literal soul to whom the uues-
ton was recently put objected that
there aren't that many horses in the
world"
There are not. The objection was
perfectly sound But the fact remains
that the power output Of this country's
central stations is Just about equal to
the energy of those twelve billion by.
pothetical equines.
And that is not one-half Of the total
electrical power produced in the
United States. The twelve billion to-
tai includes only public service COM
panies and does not include the great
companies which produce and use
their own power The total power thus
produced is easily double the output
of the central stations.
1t is little difficult for the mind to
grasp what such vast amounts of pow
er really mean. Take it this way. The
largest standard locomotive which pull
the fastest passenger trains are rated
at about 5000 horsepower. 1t would
take nearly 100000 Of these big 10.
comotives to equal the energy pro.
duced by American electrical power
stations. Take the biggest transatlan-
tic liner, nearly thousand feet long
with its engines rated at 10000 horse
power. To equal the electrical power
output of the United States would
take 342,S57 of these liners, with a
combined length that would reach
more than twice around the globe.
The figures of the census of 1910 on
the electrical industry are astounding
and yet these statistics are admittedly
incomplete.
"The growth of electrical industries
has been so rapid" recently declared
DR.. Schuyler Skaats Wheeler, that
no method has yet been devised by
the government census takers to clas-
sify it's ramifications in the census OF
manufactures. No matter to what ex.
| tent the steam railroads electrify
| they are still classified under steam
railroads. The thousands of poles used
to string wires are classified under
the lumber industry. The great cop
| per companies, producing practically
exclusively for electrical industries
are classified under the copper indus
| tries"
DR.. Wheeler estimates that the to
tai business in electrical machinery in
the United States was in the neigh
borhood of $3O0,OO0,OO0 for 1912. This
estimate seems conservative when we
realize that the last census reported
the total business for 1909 at $243, 900,
900.
Facts and figures like these make
one realize how rapidly and com
pletely the practical application o.
electrical power is revolutionizing al
modern life and industry.
