Flsas % Jumpers.

The jumping powers OF heas have
been much exaggerated, according to
bulletin on these insects issued by
the department of agriculture. The
species known as the human flea
CPulex irritans) is probably the best
jumper. According to Mitzmain. the
maximum horizontal distance this spe-
cies can jump is thirteen inches and
the maximum vertical distance less
than eight inches.
The question Of the fea's jumping
powers is Of Importance in connection
with the spread Of bub0nic plague and
other diseases Of which this insect is
the carrier. The Indian plague com.
mission, which has investigated the
habits of the Indian rat flea, finds its
maximum horizontal jump to be only
ave inches, while MitZmain records the
maximum height to which it can jump
as three and one-eighth inches. One
species Of flea. the ''sticktight," is near.
~ incapable Of Jumping.

AGED CITIZEN is
LAID TO REST
James Saul, for More Than Forty
Years Resident of Crawford Coun.
ty, Buried Monday Afternoon
OLD AGE THE CAUSE OF DEATH
Deceased Leaves Wife and Seven Chill.
dren to Mourn the Loss of
Husband and Father.

K Mr.. James Saul, a resident of Craw
ford county for almost forty years
passed away at his home in Denison
at 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon Of
Saturday, February Goth, after ling.
ering illness brought on by the in.
firmities of old age.
The deceased was born in the Coun.
ty of Carlo, Ireland, Dec. 20, 1928. and
was the son OF Thomas Saul, an Eng.
lish officer James Saul, apprenticed
as a shoemaker, left his native coun.
try when about twenty years of age
and located at Philadelphia, where he
followed his trade for a number OF
years He was united in marriage to
Miss Maria Charles on the 9th day of
December, 1851, at Camden, N. J. In
1859 they moved to Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, where they resided until 1868,
when they moved to Norway, Iowa.
and five years later located on farm
near that place. From 1858 until
about seventeen years ago Mr. Saul
devoted his time to farming. In 1879
the family moved to Crawford county
opening up a new farm in Paradise
township, where they lived until 1899
After acquiring sufficient amount Of
this worlds goods they retired from
active farm life and moved to coy
home here in Denison. Mr.. Saul
leaves, besides his devoted wife, six
children to mourn his death, name
ly: Thomas Saul, of Terrebonne, Ore;
!. Charles Saul, OF this city; William
C. Saul OF Carroll; Willard A. Saul,
of Douglas, Wyo.; Henry c.. Saul, OF
Douglas, Wyo., and Margaret Mclean
who has been with her parents for the
past few months. In addition to these
there are twenty-six /" grandchildren
and seven great grandchildren.
Mr.. Saul lived to see his children
married and settled in life. He count.
ed as one of his chief joys the return
of his children to visit the parental
home. He was of quiet and retiring
disposition and naturally preferred to
live in the background rather than to
attract attention to himself. He not
only professed, but lived the life OF a
christian and he. together with his
wife, were consistent members OF the
Methodist church all OF their lives.
His daily life was such that his family
and neighbors knew that he had been
with Christ and had learned of Him.
He will be greatly missed by his good
wife, hissrchildren and neighbors, but
they will remember him as a loving
husband. kind father and a good
neighbor and these recollections will
comfort them in their bereavement.
Funeral services were held at the
| nh Inn o.
forenoon at 1890 o'clock, the services
being conducted by the pastor, Rev
IT,. L. Boyd, after which interment was
made at Oakland cemetery.
All of the children with the excep
ton of Thomas Saul, who lives in Ore
gon, were in attendance at the funeral
