He sat on the arm of the seat

Of course the fact that Wedge
didn't have wife in Logansport
or elsewhere made no difference.
He couldn't prove an alibi, so he
faded out into the day coach and
became as one who isn't.
The Roast-Beef Sisters seemed
to be all carved up about some

While these more or less grin

ring there was ever present in
my own noodle the grim reality
that bedtime was approaching
and l had drawn an upper berth.
Say! I'll be one of a party Of
six to go before Congress and
tell all | know about an upper
berth.
The upper berth in a sleeping
car is the same relation to COM

bare foot.

out in the smoking room to
drown my sorrow, but | found
such a bunch of sorrow killers
out there ahead of me that | had
to hold the comb and brush in
my lap and sit up on the towel
rack while l took a little smoke.
Did you ever notice on your
travels that peculiar hog on the
train who pays two dollars for a
berth and always displaces eight
dollars worth Of space in the
smoking carp.
If he would bite the end of a
piece of rope and light up occa-
sionally he wouldn't be so bad,
but nix on the smoke for him.
He simply sits there with a
face like a fish and keeps George
Nicotine and all the real rag
burners from enjoying a smoke.
If ever a statue is needed of
the patriot Buttinski | would
suggest a model in the person of
the smokeless smoker who al

Two busy gazabos were dis
cussing politics when l squeezed
into the smoker on this particu-

both had lower berths; other

been busy with dark and per-
sonal fears of the future.

fit of the relief funds for the soldiers
hospitals in Brooklyn, Boston and else
where. Nearly 100000 was raised
in this way before 1865. After the
war this method Of raising money was
discontinued in this country for gen
Grafton, although it found vogue IN
Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, in
France, Spain, Denmark, Norway,
Russia, Sweden and other European
countries. There are now several
thousands of different types of char
ity stamps used in all parts of the
world, as many as forty being used
alone.
Stamps on seals were first used to
get money for the anti-tuberculosls
crusade in Norway and Sweden In
1904. To Jacob Riis, the well-known
social worker of New York, and to
Miss Emily Bissell, the energetic sec
retary of the Delaware Red Cross
jointly belong the honor of originating
our American Red Cross Christmas
Seal. In 1909, Mr.. Riis' interest was
aroused by the receipt of a Christmas
tuberculosis stamp on letter from
Norway. He published an article
about this queer-looking stamp in the
"Outlook," and suggested some posi-
BILE uses for it in this country. Miss
Bissell at once saw an opportunity
here and prepared stamp, from The
sale of which her society realized SO,
600 for tuberculosis work. So i'm
| pressed was she with this success tina
| she induced the American Red Cross
to take up the sale in 1908 on a nation
al basis. With very little organiza
ton and with hardly any attempt a
careful advertising the sale that yea
brought in, nevertheless, over SLID,
600 for anti-tuberculosis work in vari
Gus parts of the United States. IL
1909, with more thorough organiza
ton, the sale was increased to neari,
100000; in 1911 to over 100000, am
in 1912 to over 100000. Last yea
the sale was Increased to nearly 40,
O00, 900 seals, netting S450,000 for tn
anti-tuberculosis campaign.
1t is fitting to note that war, inhu
man and cruel, was the mother of tn
Red Cross Seal. and that now war TO
humanity against disease brings
back to its fullest usefulness.

 OrS By Asking Questions

In reply to the indictments of Gus Hickey. chairman of the board of supervisors of this county, which charged him with misrepresenting the facts in regard to the democratic candidate for office, Mir. Cleary. yes terday denied that he had made mis- statements. He stated he will meet Ross or Hickey on the public plat form on the questions involved at any time they may designate. Fol lowing is the statement of Cieary in regard to the Hickey indictment:
 ''I have read the Hickey statement as in the Review and reply that his charge that l said that Mir Ross eyer drew a salary as a deputy sheriff is untrue. never made such state ment but did say and do now say. that he drew salary Of SIPS from January 15 to May 15 as assistant county attorney That at the time he was appointed assistant county at torney there was already an assist ant county attorney, Mir Murray, drawing $500 a year, and that there is no statutory provision giving the board power 10 appoint two assist auth, and that all money paid Ross was paid without warrant of law.

Hickey if it be a fact that a deputy sherin of the county can prac tice law, ah a prosecuting sheriff and fl it is not a fact trat on December 9. 1913, Mr Ross was appointed deputy sherin and took the oath of office that day Also ask Mir Hickey if Mir Ross could be a deputy sherin ann assistant county attorney al the same time, and fl it is not fact that he was both at lhe same time"

Are Now Gathering Inside Homes Where They Hide In All

Because the cooler weather is said to be driving centipedes into the houses wherever they can gain ac- cess. Bisbee housewives are warned to take every precaution in order that the dreaded insects can have no harbor in the homes
 A number of cases where centi- houses within the past week or two have been reported and it is believed that many are introduced into the houses by forewood Once inside they will hunt some dark spot where they will remain hidden, only to venture out about the house at night
 The dangers Of the bite of the or dinary Arizona cenupede has been much exaggerated. and it is said by experts never to prove fatal The cenupede possesses poison fangs and glands which secrete venomous fluid but it is said never to be pres ent in strength to cause serious ill., ness. An expert on the subject says:
 'l have personally known of a number of persons stung by the feet of the centipede Some of them are big brutes and the claws bring the blood They inject an acid that caus- es smarting and itching. not unlike the stinging worm encountered in the eastern cornhelds by the boy who is pulling the fodder A little ammonia or the juice from the end of a cigar stops it instantly The effect is merely local in the worst cases cauh- ing skin irritation in persons whohe blood is in bad condition.

CAPITAL BAR ROBBED
 OF LIQUOR, CIGARS
 AND MONEY BY THIEF
Burglar Gains Entrance Through Rear Window And Makes Es- cape UndeteCted-LayS In Big Supply Of WhiSkey And Wines

By forcing up a window in the rear of the building reaching and twist ing of an iron bar some burglar or burglars gained entrance to the Cap ital Bar in Brewery Gulch, some time Thursday night and secured 26 quarts of whisky a quantity of fine wines and cigars, and about S16 in money. Most of the money had been placed elsewhere for safe keeping bfore the saloon was closed and the amount ob- tained was what had been left in the cash register
 Whether the burglars weakness for liquor was caused by the belief that the state might go dry. and a consequent desire to lay in a supply or whether he merely needed a drink right then, with no thought of the future, it not known However after gaining entrance he was unable to restrain himself from collecting a soodly quantity, evidently thinking .of another rainy day in the future
 City Marshal Allison and his force. as well as Merchant Police Jay Wil- moth and other peace officers have what is a strong clue and it is believed that before long the robber will be taken into custody.
 Mir WilmOth says that it was not hard for the burglar to gain en trance through the window. which was not sufficiently strong, and that other business men of the city should take warning and see to it that their places of business are as strongly se- cured as possible against The en- croschments Of burglars. who. with the coming of winter, will probably increase in number and bolduess.
 The Capital Bar is owned by John Twoomey who has been out of the city for several months. and is man aged by Quinn Hampston.
