HE Is SOME CORN HUSKER
Michigan Man Claims Championship
and May Do Husking Act
in Vaudeville.

Grand Rapids, Mich.-P. E. Thomas
of this city claims the championship
of Michigan for corn husking. He es-
tablished a new record this year on
the farm OF r. G. Brumm. near Nash
Vile, in Barry county, when he husked
l46 bushels in ten hours, an average
of IA 3-5 bushels per hour, or one
bushel to each 4 2-7 minutes. His
best time during the day was Is
bushels in 40 minutes.
Mr. Thomas grandfather was an
expert husker and at one time did
even better than the grandson's best
record, husking 1853 bushels in ten
hours. His father husked lat bushels
in ten hours.
Mr.. Thomas has made a business of
husking corn for II years. He says
the corn in Mr.. Brumm's field is the
best in which he ever worked. The
corn is of the Folsom yellow dent
variety, which was introduced into
this locality by w. H. Burd Mr..
Brumm's field contains 1-6 acres and
the total yield was l,143 bushels, an
average of 40 bushels per acre.
There is no question about the cor
rectness of Mr.. Thomas record, as
accurate time was kept on his work
and on the measure of his corn by
Mr.. Brumm. Mr.. Thomas says he ex-
poets to beat his own record and that
of his grandfather next year. He may
go on the vaudeville stage with corn.

WHEN PASSION TAKES HOLD
Terrible Spectacle When Fury Sup
plants Dull Courage in the
Soldier.

Paris.-The following scene was de-
scribed by an officer who took part
in it.:
For long hours the soldiers have
lain in sodden burrows exposed to ter
rible fire. Nerves are unstrung, tenn
pers on edge. At last they are upon
the enemy; they can now prove their
valor with cold steel. At last it is
man to man.
Suddenly the sound of loud and
continuous laughter is heard. One of
the soldiers has passed the border Of
restraint. He is transformed, very
figure of destruction; it is no longer
dull courage, but blaze of fury that
sweeps the ranks of the enemy like a
fire.
Machine guns have no reply to such
zeal of passion; no machine conceived
could oppose this living food of wrath
The sound of that terrible laughter
will ring in my ears as long as live

GIRL IS VICTIM or GOSSIP
Sent to Home for Friendiess After
Death Of Woman She Thought
Her Mother.

La Crosse, Wis.-Fifteen years ago
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred West decided their
childless home was incomplete and
they resolved to adopt a baby. A
little girl, one month old, was taken
by the couple, and upon her Mrs.
West proceeded to lavish a mothers
love and devotion. The girl was
named Hazel West
Two weeks ago Mrs. West died and
the child, heartbroken over her loss,
heard neighbors whisper that she was
not Mrs. Vests child. For the first
time the girl learned she did not
know who her parents were. Unable
to stand remarks made concerning
her birth, the girl appeared before
Judge Brindley.
Inasmuch as she had never been
legally adopted, the girl was sent to
the home OF the friendless.

THERE'S MONEY IN THAT cow
Silver Dollar in Stomach Of Bovine
Proved Indiana Butchers
Prediction.

Lafayette, Ind.-John Klink, but
cher, thinks he has right to believe
that there actually is money in cows.
He bought heifer at the stockyards
here for 1913 and took it to a slaugh-
ter house. After the animal had been
killed a bright silver dollar was found
in its stomach. The former owner
made no effort to claim the money
and could not explain its presence in
the cows digestive apparatus. When
Klink bought the COW at the yards
he remarked: There is money in that
COW, she is a good one" His predic.
ton literally came true.

1t is important that everyone should
be able to Judge of the nearness or dis
lance of a thunder storm. The sound
of the thunder, caused by the heating
and sudden expansion of the air by the
great electric spark which We call "a
fash of lightning" travels mile in
FIVE seconds. When there is an inter
val between the flash and the sound
of the thunder of two seconds or more,
the storm is for the time being at a
safe distance, but when the interval is
only second or less the storm is
close, and any prominent object near
you, or you yourself, may be struck

POISON LOVED ONES
Heroic French Girls Tragedy
Thrills All France.
KIN Their Husbands When They Find
Latter, Who Were German Born,
Planned TO Poison Garrison
With Arsenic.

Paris.-How two little French girls
poisoned the husbands they loved, to
save the life of an entire garrison has
just been made known in Paris, and it
has created a tremendous sensation.
Rose and Marie Dupont, two eight
een-year-old twins were born at Vile
rupt, a small village on the Lorraine
students of chemistry, named Ulrich
and Wilhelm, who loved them so much
that they became French citizens and
bought drug store in the town.
Both unions were most happy until
July 20 of last year, when the hus-
bands received a letter from across
the frontier. Immediately both be-
came very nervous and asked the two
girls to go to their grandmother's
home in Longwy until the situation
cleared.
Both went to Longwy, but found
that their grandmother was not
there. They returned very late the
next day to Villerupt.
When they arrived at the drug store
they found it closed Going through
the back garden they peered through
the closed shutters and saw their
husbands, to their great amazement,
talking in quite friendly manner to
two uhlans in full uniform
They could not believe their eyes
at first, but they were Mortified later
at the conversation they heard.
A deep plot had been arranged by
| Ulrich and Wilhelm. They had stored
big dose of strychnine and during
the night it was planned to drop it in
| the wine casks reserved for the French
garrison.
Are you sure the dose is strong
enough" asked one of the uhlans.
Why" answered Ulrich, 1T is
strong enough to kill all the garrison
and its reserves"
With low cry Rose shuddered and
almost tainted. Both realized they
had been fooled, and that instead of
being loved they were the wives Of
the worst of scoundrels and even
worse than that-traitors.
| I'VE must act" said Marie, ito pre-
vent this most awful crime, even If We
must commit one ourselves"
Half an hour later they rang the
front door bell. They appeared very
Joyous and explained their citation by
saying they had heard the war had
been averted.
They said they were so glad that
they wanted to open some wine in
honor of peace and the friendly uhlan
soldiers.
Marie went out and brought back
q champagne bottle. She poured the
liquor and they drank it.
Next morning they ran out of the
house. They were widows, for they
themselves had used the poison.
They went straight to the chief de
gendarmes and told him of their sorry
plight.
I'VE have killed our husbands" they
cried. do what is right with us"
But the official simply wept with
them and kissed them, for it was found
that the plot had been deeply laid and
that the sacrifice of the girls, which
has no precedent in history, had saved
thousands of French troops from Ger
tain death.
Marie and Rose have been critically
i'll and for two months were hoverinl
between life and death, and 1t was
feared they would lose their reason
but they have recovered. and are nov
Red Cross nurses.
In caring for the wounded they ar,
trying to forget their terrible life
drama.

A Correction.

In our obituary of James Jackson
Wilson, in Mondays Herald, it was
stated that Mrs Henry Warner OF
Peoria, Ill. was a daughter OF Nj.
Wilson. This is an error, as Mrs.
Warner was a sister, instead OF a
daughter. Mrs. Warner died last week
at her home in Peoria, and the re.
mains were brought here for burial.
