There is an old saying that a man
we'll under the influence of the flow.
ing bowl never hurts himself when he
falls. This Is pretty well borne out
by the experience that a young man
from the country had In Mankato last
Saturday evening, about half past
nine o'clock. He was on his way from
Good Thunder to Westbrook, where
he had made arrangements to do
some electrical wiring for the city.
He stopped in Mankato and took
more of the amber fluid than his ner-
vous system could stand. -
Wandering along Jackson street by
the Brett dry goods store he sat on
the railing around the edge Of the
area way, which Is approached from
the sidewalk by a flight of steps. The
floor, six feet below the sidewalk is
OF cement. He soon lost his balance
and fell down over the railing into
this area.way, striking on the floor.
How he struck so as to hurt himself
very little, en- scrcely be conceived.
But he does show rather a bad-look-
ing left eye.
AS he struck he kicked and pushed
his foot through basement window.
The employees In the store heard the
crash and several men hurried out
and picked him up. A telephone mes
sage was sent to the police and OFF.
GERS Bienapf and Waters came and
got the man, who was taken to the
police station, where he took long
sleep. This morning he seemed In
fairly good condition.
Rosenow was charged i'm police
court this morning with having been
drunk and paid a fine of $685.. I'm

BIG DAY FOR THE EDITOR.

The editor of a Kansas paper
says that he picked up a Winches-
ter rifle recently and started up
the street to deliver the weapon
to its owner. The delinquent sub
scribers got it into their heads
that he was on the war path, and
every one he met insisted on pay
ing all he owed. One man wiped
out a debt of 10 years standing.
On returning to the office he
found a load of hay, IS bushels of
corn, 10 bushels of potatoes, a load
of wood and a barrel Of turnips.-

story with point as sharp as
needle, which we are going to
make a motion to adopt as an
amendment to the constitution of
the Newark Boosters League: On
a recent visit to the state capital,a
certain citizen went out to visit
the state insane asylum, where he
saw about 400 men out in the
park taking exercise, and he ask
ed how many guards it took to
look after the crazy people. He
was informed that it took only
four. He asked what would the
four guards do if the 400 organic
ed and decided to run off. The
answer he got was, Cray people
never organize. "

CAL0MEL A GREAT

Place and is Perfectly
Harmless.

If you will inquire at the New

Dodson's Liver Tone is guaranteed
to be a safe, reliable remedy to
take the place of calomel and a
harmless liver stimulant having
no bad after effects. Indeed,
they will refund purchase price

in any way dissatisfied with
this vegetable liquid.
Itisvery unwise to take calomel,
even dangerous, as many people
suffer from the poison afterwards,
even though they may appear at
first to be temporarily relieved.
On the other hand, Dodson's Liver
Tone works easily and naturally
really assisting nature with no pain
nor grippe and correcting all bilious
conditions and ills of constipation,
clearing away the sick headache
and the coated tongue, frightening

IN MEMORIAM

To the Noble Grand, Officers
and Members of Oil Trough Lodge
No. 221 |. o. F. Oil Trough,
Arkansas.
We, your committee appointed
to draft resolutions in~memory of
the death of Bro Ollie F. Pearce,
which occurred at his home in New
ark April 70, 1911, after an illness
of some time, beg leave to submit
the following:
He was born in Oil Trough
March l, 1878 and was therefore
80 years old. He resided almost
continuously all his life in the
community in which he was born.
He became a member of 0ilTrough
Lodge : |. o. O. F. at It's organiza-
ton January s, 1908, by initiation
and lived a consistent member up
to the time of his death. He join
ed the NJ. Z. Church, South, in
1907, of which he was a loyal and
devoted member, and now a chair
in both our lodge and church is
vacant He was a brother of I'M
speakable integrity. in all things
temperate, truthful and trust
worthy and discreet in judgment;
in every relation of life a true
friend. As a citizen he was honor
able and upright, a kind and af
fectionate father and husband,
leaving a wife and three children,
mother, brothers and sisters, to
whom we extend our heartfelt
sympathy in their bereavement
and will try to carry out the prin-
ciples of our order, relieving the
sick and distressed, burying the
dead and offering what consola-
ton we can to the bereaved, in
that it is not all of life to just live
nor all of life to die, and may we
excIaim, 20 grave where is thy
victory? O, Death, where is thy
sting?9
Therefore be it resolved, That
while the ruthless hand of death
has invaded our ranks and claim
ed brother as a victim, we bow
in humble submission to the will
of Him who doeth all things well,
though it seem hard for US with
earthly vision to see; and COM
mend his spirit to God who gave
it.
We recommend that page of
our minutes be dedicated to his
memory, a copy be furnished the
Guard and The Newark Journal
for publication; also that We wear

COLLINS TO WRITE
BIG SERIES FOR
EVENING LEDGER
F amous Athletic Second
Sacker Will Review Each
Game of Wotld's Baseball
Classic in Day Following
Play.

No man in the country, with the pos
so well qualified to write inside baseball
us Eddie Collins, the worlds premier
second baseman and eXtra-base slugger.
Eddie has consented to write a review of
series for the Evening Ledger and it is
safe to say that his comments on that
baseball classic will be more widely read
than that OF any other writer in America.
During the past year Collins has writ
ten Il number of excellent articles which
have appeared from time to time in va
rious magazines. His Mack and His
MaCkmen' and Pitchers l have Faced"
made big hit with the baseball public
because they were splendidly written and
contained facts which no one but a great
ball player himself could know. Need
less to say Collins writes his own articles.
Furthermore he writes on q standard
typewriter with all the ease of the fin
ished reporter. When all of the public
realizes that McGraw's ideal Of base
ball player is able 20 comment on the
game as ably as he can play it, the name
of Edward Trowbrdge Collins will be
raised to an even greater height in the
eyes of klc fans then hitherto.
That the Evening Ledger is fortunate
in having Collins to write tho world 5
series is not to be questioned. These
articles will appear in all editions of the
Evening Ledger.
