Stroud was relieved by Kinsella in the fourth and the Oaks registered only two more hits off the relief twirler- But the lead was too great and KiIlilay held the locals safe. The Wolves made five errors before anybody was out in the fourth.

Killed Himself While Asleep,

The curious suggestion that young
man committed suicide while Sleep
walking was made at an inquest at
Doncaster England, on a youth Of
eighteen, named Thrustle, who was
found dead hanging from a bed rail.
Thrustle was fine lad, standing six
feet two inches in height. He was
in the best of health, and had no
trouble, but he was in the habit O:
walking in his sleep. His mother de-
clared that he was too fond Of his
life to take it while in his right mind.
He had committed the act, she aver
red, while in sleeping delirium." On
one occasion, the mother added, he had
carried the washstand downstairs
without being conscious Of what he
was doing.
DR.. Edge said he had never known
a case of suicide during sleep, but he
had read of such instances. They
were possible, but Of very infrequent
and uncommon occurrence. He did
not think there was any limit to what
a somnambulist might do. The jury
found a verdict of suicide, there be-
ing no evidence to show the state OF
the deceased's mind at the time.

Saw Napoleon In Moscow.

1t makes a great bridge over the
years to meet person whose life
spans more than a century, and has
retained the use of the mental facul-
ties. Ethel Polansky, one hundred and
nine years old, and Rachel Mareno,
one hundred and five years old, liv-
ing in a Jewish old peoples home in
New York, were both born in Moscow,
and remember well the French in
vasion of Russia, under Napoleon.
Mrs. Polansky recalls the French
invaders rolling wine casks out Of
the burning taverns, and being march
er or driven along the streets by
their officers, as they were made to
leave Holy Moscow by the fire, light
ed or driven along the streets by
the Russian patriots. She was after
wards taken by her parents to War
saw and there again witnessed a
French invasion of her country.
Mrs. Mareno also recalls incidents
connected with the Napoleonic wars,
and actually witnessed the deaths Of
many of her countrymen at the hands
of the invaders.
Witnesses of Napoleon's fatal in
road into Russia are few at this date,
but when found add wonderfully
vitalizing effect to history.

Royal Crest Counts for Something

Some Irishmen are nothing if not
ingenious. Here is good story told
of one, terrible scamp serving in
South Africa under Colonel Hamilton
Browne. On discharge he asked for
a character, and was given one by the
colonel so bad as should ordinarily
have barred him from employment
forever.
Some time later the colonel met
him, most prosperous man and about
to embark for the mother country.
But" said the colonel, how was
it that people, reading such a charac-
ter as l gave you, should have been
so taken in?"
Read it," the scamp replied. Never
one OF them read it, and for very
good reason. as not one of them could
read a word of English. 1t was the
lion and the unicorn fighting for the
crown on the top of the official paper
that did the trick, and that's what
wanted when l troubled you for a
character. So long, colonel; there's
the all for the shore bell ringing.
Good luck, and many thanks, as it's
through you I'm in for a high old
time"

TRY TO CONQUER TROUBLES
Seeing That 1t Is Impossible to Dodge
Them Ones Best Weapons Are
Courage and Good Cheer.

You can't dodge them. Troubles
will come to each of us, and often II
does seem as though they got the
habit of trailing you. so that two or
three good, strong troubles will be
found waiting wherever you go, bob
bling up in the most unexpected places
and at the most inconvenient times,
writes Jessie Roberts, in the Kansas
City Star.
No, we can't evade trouble, no mat
ter what life gives US.
But you can meet your troubles IN
several ways, and there is where the
success or the failure of life lies IL
you lie down and let trouble tramp
right over you you are going to lose
out. There will be always more reason
for quitting and whining, and less and
less power to bear up bravely against
the sad and disagreeable things of
life.
But a trouble tackled with courage
and good cheer is half conquered.
There is nothing so discouraging to
trouble as the thought: Others have
had to endure this sort of thing: why
should l expect to escape? But at
least it shan't down me-"
The other day l had the chance to
contrast two ways of meeting prac-
tically the same kind of bad luck.
Two Of my friends, working girls, were
each laid on the shelf for about a
week by an accident. One slipped on,
the pavement and sprained her ankle
so that she must spend some days In
bed; the other had a heavy door slam
on her hand and injure it. She was a
stenographer, and, of course, had to
quit work for the time.
The first girl let out a general howl.
Why should this thing happen to her?
How she had suffered, how she
couldn't afford to lose a weeks pay,
what mean thing life was anyhow,
and how little people sympathized
with her, etc.
AS for the other girl, she just
laughed when l tried to tell her how
sorry 1 was
eve all get something" she said,
And anyhow, needed a little rest,
and I've been reading two fine books
| never expected to get the time for.
Then every ones been so good to me.
/ tell you it's worth while suffering
a bit to find out how kind people are"
And she couldn't afford to lose
money any easier than the first girl.

Deadly Wood Tick.

There is a mountain valley in q
western state, one side of which has
been almost depopulated by wood
ticks. The ticks are not very numer-
Gus, but they are deadly. The squir-
rels of this valley are infected with
a peculiarly virulent form OF so-called
spotted fever" better known as cere-
bro-spinal meningitis; and wood ticks
carry the deadly germs from squirrels
to men.
SUCH visitation is terrifying
enough, even in this practical day.
What must it have been in benighted
times when sickness was supposed TO
be the result of witchcraft, or perhaps
a visible sign of the wrath Of heaven?
How many wild decisions, how many
strange and fearsome cults and sacri-
fees that history records were due to
epidemics that modern science would
trace to polluted water supply or .
disease insect bearing pest.
