from windnw in the second story
Of the harness shop and was picked
up unnjurcd. The little fellow was
sitting in the window playing with

fell. Mrs. Garcia saw him fall and
rushed 10 the window and saw him
lying on the ground and thought
he was killed Mr.. Garcia war
called, rushed to the child and
much to his surprise found him I'M
hurt and calling for his papa.
The window from which the child
fell is about II feet from the
ground, but in falling he struck
the roof Of an adjoining building
and bounced from that 20 tbs
ground. This doubtless saved the
little fellow from serious injury or

QUITE A COINCIDENCE

Here is something that is quite n

born in 1856: taft was born in
1858 and Roosevelt was born in
1858. MIR. Taft was graduated
from Yale in 1873, Wilson from
Princeton in 1879 and Roosevelt
from Harvard in 1880. Wilson was
married in 1885, Taft in 1886 and
Roosevelt. the second time in 1856.
Wilson graduated from the law
school in 1882, Taft goy his first
political job IN 1882 and Roosevelt
got his first political joh in 1882.
Wilson became president uf Prince
ton in 1902: Roosevelt becarNs
president IN 1901 and Taft became
governor Of the PHILIPPINES in
1901. But when we get down to
