FARM HAND STRIKE BEGAN 1T.
After That Revolt in Patagonia As
suned Alarming Proportions.

New Orleans. July 24.-Many
American arA British farmers have
left Patagonia because OF labor trou-
bles and the activities of bandits in
some parts of that country, according
to George E. Hunseiker, who arrived
here yesterday from Rio GaHegos,
Patagonia.
The trouble, he said, started as a
strike of farm hands, but developed
into an uprising. Farm building and
boundary fences were burned and
many farmers and their families were
taken prisoners, Mr.. Hunseiker said.
The government sent troops to quell
the uprising.

HOW UMBRELLA CAME
into EVERYDAY USE

Among the Greeks and Romans UNI
brellas were carried solely by women,
and it was regarded as sign of ef-
is not likely that the materials used
were of any use against rain storm,
and they were designed solely as
protection against the sun The use
Of umbrellas became very general in
Italy and France in the sixteenth cen
fury and they soon became an article
of luxury and fashion Drayton, a
poet of the seventeenth century
writes
And like umbrellas, with their
feathers,
Shield you in all sorts of weathers.
From this one must conclude that
feathers and ribbons ornamented the
article.
Early in the eighteenth century it
was the practice to keep umbrellas
in the coffee houses as a sort of pro-
lection to guests who were caught in
an unexpected shower, but the use of
individual umbrellas in the home was
still to come. In 1852 Col Wolfe, an
English soldier, wrote from Paris:
"The ease-loving French carry UNI
brellas with them wherever they go,
and in color, material and ornamen-
tation, they are indicative of the rank
and wealth of their owners. They
are used as a protection from both
sun and rain. / marvel that they have
not been made popular in England.

OLD LEGEND Tells
HOW fire ORIGINATED

One of the oldest of all legends tel
ling how fire came first to the earth
is an old Sanskirt tale of truce be-
tween the colds Devas and Asuras.
Devas was the good spirit and Asuras
was the evil one. Their truce had as
its reason the necessity for fire and
as it's background the knowledge
that had come to most primitive peo-
pie that fire could be started by fric-
ton.
1t was not only common fire that
the two gods had to create. They
were making lightning. So they used
Mount Mandara as the stick and for
the whirling cord they took the great
serpent Sasha. DeyaS pulled at the
tail and Asuras pulled at the head and
in time from the crest of the noun
tain the lightning blaZed forth. So
the truce came to an end as the fire
struck the earth.
The fire stories of our own North
American Indians are as ingenious
in detail One of the simplest of them
is the tale of the friendly panther as
told by the Sioux Indians. This pam
Their was the form that friendly god
had taken in order to give his best
gift to man. He was giant panther
and scrambled up a flint rock noun
tain at such a rate that his claws
struck out big sparks all the way.
These were caught by men. who made
fires from them.
Medicine men and all chemists
have always used fire for incantations
and Oscillations. Good spirits and bad
spirits alike have followed its train,
and it has been the servant of the
most primitive priests of sun worship.

B Homer Rodeheaver, who is Method

other churches with what the Method
lists are going to do ontheir night. He
is even so confident that the Method
lists are coming out ahead that he has
suggested that the Presbyterians plan
for another night next week, just to
try and equal the Methodists.

such large audiences on their night,
