Point For Boy Scouts.

When visiting my former regiment
the other day. says Baden-Powell. l
found that several novel ideas were in
force in the physical training of the
young soldiers. One was hat Of teach
ing them to walk along a plank set up
on edge at a height of about five feet
above the ground. To walk along this
for about fifteen feet was the test of
balance, and after a little practice
there was not one who could not do it.
although at first trial it looked hope
less.
1t might be thought to be rather a
waste Of time to instruct soldiers In
| walking the tight rope. but most Gu
| rious results have been obtained from
H. Not only does a lad become more
well balanced, confident and plucky,
but it has been found that he also de-
velops very rapidly into a good shot.
One old soldier, who was a particular
" bad shot. was sent through a course
Of tight rope walking, and he soon
gained thereby the power of controlling
his nerve
Making SieishbeiIs.
The sleighbells we see are round
with an iron single" in them. Now,
you know that this little Jingle could
not have been put through the holes
Of the bell. so perhaps you would like
to know how the bell is made. 1t is
made by a man called an iron founder.
First he puts the Jingle inside a little
ball Of mud. which is just the shape
and size of the metal ball. Then he
makes a mold the shape Of the outside
Of the ball. The ball of mud with the
Jingle in it is put inside the mold: then
hot metal is poured in and fills the
space between the ball and the mold.
But when the mold is taken off the
bell will not ring. AS soon as the dirt
inside the mold is shaken out the jim
gle is still in the bell and it will ring
now. 1t took many years to think how
to make a sleighbell.
Cerberus.
In Greek fable Cerberus is the
three headed dog that watches outside
the entrance to hades. Some writers
assert that he has fifty heads. but gen.
orally he is said to have three, and
three snakes are twined about his
neck. His cave is on the farther
side Of the dark river Styx, where

lands the shades. Cerberus is sup
posed to welcome all entering hades.
but to seize all those seeking to escape.

Announcement Of Pope's Death Comes
to the Papal Delegate.

Washington, Aug. 20.-The official
announcement of the vatican of the
death of Pope Plus x was received
by the apostolic delegate, Monsignor
Bonzano at 1880 this morning at the
moment he was celebrating mass in
the chapel of the delegation. 1t came
from Cardinal Merry del Val, papal
Rome at E:44 this morning, and said:
Holy Father Plus x died this
night
Prior to this, at 1 o'clock this morn
ing, Mgr. Bonzano received a dispatch
from Cardinal del Val dated at Rome
at 1918 last night, telling Of the crit
ical condition of the pope at that time,
as follows:
Holy Father dangerously ill since
this morning. He may die at any
moment"
These were the only official commu-
nications received.
The announcement came as a pro-
found shock to the delegate and men,
bers of his staff, and while not en-
tirely unexpected, In view of the
warning of Cardinal Del Val, yet the
trying circumstances surrounding the
death of the venerable pontiff made a
deep impression. Monsignor Bonzano
remained in strict seclusion and asked
to be excused from making any COM
ment beyond the expression of his
deep grief There will be a period of
official mourning and probably a me-
mortal ceremony at a later date, at
which the apostolic delegate will Of
ficiate.

USE MORE BILLS
War Will FamilfartZe California
With GreenbackS.
Currency Formerly Was Looked
Upon With Suspicion.

San Francisco, Cal. Aug. 2O.-As a
result of the European war, California
is becoming familiar with greenbacks.
BY general agreement the banks in
San Francisco and other cities of the
state are passing out paper money in
stead of the familiar gold coins and
there is now said to be more currency
in circulation than there has ever been
before. According to bankers gold is
far from scarce in the city and it is be-
ing withheld from the public mainly for
the purpose Of discouraging the ten
dency CT many persons during war
times to hoard the yellow metal
Old Californians are wondering
whether the change will mean the pass
ing of a sentiment which for many
years has kept the Pacific states COM
monty to employ gold coin. So strong
has been the gold habit and SO infre-
quent the use of the paper money in
California that currency always has
been regarded with more or less sus-
picion and IN some remote communities
strangers with only currency in their
pockets are as badly off as tourists
now in Europe with only travellers
checks.
About So, 500 900 worth of the new ma
tional bank notes have been sent to the
subtreasury here and 1t was said last
night that the banksEhad taken about

Two Trains Meet Head On; Thirty
Injured.

Ottumwa. Ia. Aug. 20.-A headon
collision between a passenger and a
freight train at the Alpine mines near
here early today resulted in the in
jury of 80 men, none of them serious
ly, and considerable damage to the
two engines Cuts and bruises made
up the most of the injuries which
were caused by the passengers being
thrown against the seats and sides of
the cars. Fractures Of ribs and limbs
are the worst hurts received by any
of the injured. Traffic was delayed
several hours before the line was
opened between Ottumwa and Eldon.
The trains were the Rock Island

Chairman w. H. L. Pepper1u OF the
Democratic state committee today
summary removed p. H. Souther Of
Topeka as treasurer of the state COM
mittee on the grounds that Souther IL
no longer q Democrat and is opposing
the party organization in Kansas.
Souther is now in charge OF the Bill

county Democratic committee, is ap-
jointed as Souther's successor.
Whitney will serve until a new
treasurer of the state committee is
Gil in Topeka next Tuesday. The
books and accounts in the hands OF
the retiring treasurer have been turn
ed over to Whitney. Chairman Pep
PERIL makes plain that the removal
Of Souther as treasurer is due to his
party to support j. B. Billiard as an
Independent candidate for governor.
The action of the state committee in
removing Souther makes clear that the
Democratic organization in the state
proposes to refuse recognition to any
party member who goes to the Billiard
forces In the coming campaign. Pep
PERIL did not wait for action OF the
executive committee when he learned
that Souther had gone to the Billiard
