Why She Cried.

Samuels came into the house after his third quarrel of the morning with his neXt-door neighbors. He threw himself into a chair and began to de- liver a tirade against his friends gen erally. Mrs. Samuels, who had been sitting quietly through the storm suddenly began to cry softly.
 "Now what in the world is the mat ter with you?" snapped the irrate spouse.
 Dear" she sobbed, I'm afraid that if you should die, would have to serve refreshments at the funeral in order to have a crowd large enough to bury you."

OREGON HAS SAME
 QUESTION AS ARK ANSAS

Little Rock, Oct. 9.-Preciselv the same questions are involved in the minimum wage cases that are pending in the Arkansas Supreme Court from Sebastian county, and in the Supreme Court of the United States from Ore gon. The minimum wage, by legisla tion, Is comparatively new. While history records an effort as early as 1S40, in New York, to prescribe a minimum wage by statutory enact ment, it did not become in any de- gree a popular movement among the Legislatures until about four years ago.
 Utah enacted minimum wage law in 1913, and since then similar laws have been passed in Oregon. Califor- mia, Colorado, Massachusetts, and Minnesota. It has been sustained by the supreme courts of several states but the Oregon case is the first to reach the Supreme Court of the Unit ed States. It is possible that the Ark ansas court will await the decision of the highest tribunal before passing upon the case appealed by the Fort Smith laundry-man, since precisely the same questions are involved.

When Truth was Short.

An elderly teacher of boys in a Southern city stood in high regard on account of his many years of useful ness in the community. He was a leader among the local Confederate veterans and his pastime of special delight was recoWting incidents of the Civil War, the glories of which grew more marked and vivid as the years passed.
 Two of his former pupils, now middle-aged business men, were dis cussing this foible of their erstwhile instructor.
 Isn't it strange, said Green, that such a good man as Prof. Camp should exaggerate so in those war stories he is always telling-in plain words that he should be such liar?'
 "Oh, Camp isn't liar," answered White. He's too upright for that When the truth gives out, he just talks on."

Land in Cotton Field.

"Of course we encountered some rather unusual incidents en route," said he, but nothing like our landing Dropping a distance of 13,000 feet we hit the center of a great cotton field all white with a green setting. might have thought we were sailing into huge featherbed had not the jolt of landing reminded us of strik- ing a ton of brick.
 Our gas was very poor It was this natural stuff and they tell me you know something of that in Little Rock. To keep the gap between us and the tree tops our last bag of ballast had been thrown overboard-we had only II when we left Wichita.
 When the 13,0O0 feet had been cut by half our descent was so rapid that probable destruction awaited us below And in handling aircraft quick action is necessary, you know. So to tighten our load and sIacken our drop we dumped our tools, food, instruments and every detachable thing we could lay hands on. But this was not enough. Our clothes went next.
 Nothing else could be done. We sat steady in the basket Luck was with us. Fortunately the landing was safe but hard We suffered no injury and our balloon no damake save a few rips caused by cotton stalks"
 Tired and hungry the balloonists gathered up their belongings, includ- ing clothes, kits and balloon and drove into Prescott late in the afternoon in farm wagon. They spent the night in Prescott and will leave early in the morning for St. Louis.
 As the crow flies it is $50 miles from Wichita, Kan, to Prescott, Ark The landing was 12 miles beyond Prescott.

Struck the Bumps

Governor Boyle occupies a rather
high position in Nevada society, but
this morning took another rise. While
he has been away the improvements
at the Capitol grounds included the
removal of the dirt which had Deen
put at the entrances to make teaming
feasible. This left a jump-off of
about a foot at each of the orner
When Governor Boyle came down
this morning in his auto, he took the
usual gait when entering the grounds,
and the result was a real, good, full
grown bump. The descent from the
street grade to that of the states
front yard was sudden and unexpect-
ed and had not the governor been a
man of poise and steady nerve, he
would probably have gone on a fly
ing expedition.
