The Nobel Fortune,

The decision of the Nobel Company
to quadruple their capital may recall
how a lucky accident laid the founda-
ton of the Nobel fortunes. Alfred
Nobel was assisting in his fathers
factory at Stockholm in the manu-
facture of nitroglycerine, when one
Hateful day in 1867 he discovered that
a cask mad leaked and some of the
nitrog1ycerine had become mixed with
the slice0us sand used as packing. The
trivial mishap suggested to him a
method of preparing a safe and man
ageable explosive. and the result was
dynamite-London Chronicle

New Names for Old Initials.

British soldiers at the front are ap-
plying new Specifications to old initials.
For instance, the r. F. A.-Royal Field
Artillery-is being called the Ready for
Anything. The men of King Edwards
Horse say that K. E. H means Kill
Every Hun. ~
The unkindest Interpretation is that
put upon the letters r. A. NJ. C.-Royal
Army Medical Corps. Some wounded
soldiers have complained of missing
belongings after their things have
passed into the keeping of the R. A.
NJ c., so they declare the initials
really now stand for Rob All My Com
rades.-Exchange.

Virtues Of the Onion.

The virtues of the onion were never
more plainly demonstrated than during
the great cholera epidemic in London
in 1S49. Saffron Hill was practically
free, although the surrounding neigh
borhood suffered severely. The board
OF health investigated, and discovered
that 1t was due to the fact that all the
holera- proof houses were occupied by
Italian organ grinders, who consumed
huge quantities of onions, which were
hanging in strings from the ceilings OF
their rooms. When this was made
known Londoners-just reeked of on

When Mr.. Simpson arose at the

with his wife short time before
going to the barn but gave no intima-
tion of such rash act. The pistol
which he used was one that he car
ried to the barn last winter to kill a
dog with and members of the family
believe that the deed was the result
of rash impulse. Ii was said that
Mr.. Simpson had been in i'll health
for some time and this is the only
cause advanced for the deed. His
UuSlItSS dlldlIS are III e&ctlleut SHAPE
and there were no financial difficult
ties to worry him. For three
months or more he had been losing
flesh and seemed to Worry consider
ably over the condition of his health
Mr.. Simpson was born in Wiscon-
sin in 1855. When three years of
age he was brought to Dallas coun-
ty by his parents and has since re-
sided in this county and city. He
owned much property just To the
south of Oak Cliff and his holne-site,
consisting OF about forty-five acres of
land with a big white two-story house
