Now let the lords respond Indiana took the Brat prise at the ()matte corn show. There was no frost on the fodder that was responsible for that ear. Germany will establish three airship passenger lines next year. But for seine time there will be no guarantee of the schedules. Fewer marriages this year mean that fewer men have had lobs good enough for two, and have been sure of keeping them. Diamonds have been found in Ger- man southwest Africa, and already Von Buelow is trying to get revenues from them to build battleships. It cost China $4,200,000 to bury Its dead emperor. If the maintenance of a live one is equally expensive mon- archy in the orient certainly comes high. France has voted by a substantial majority to continue the death pen- alty. This will be injurious to those persons only who commit crimes worthy of death. Wealthy natives of India have formed a company with $7,500,000 cap- ital to erect At Bombay blast furnaces and a complete steel plant for the utilization of native ores. That the magnetic influence of the coast of Lapland drew his iron ship ashore and wrecked it was the sworn statement of the captain of the Brit- ish steamer Sandal to the British board of trade. It is estimated that the aggregate of waste in all mineral products for the past year amounted to about one mil- lion dollars a day, and this doesn't in- clude the unnecessary coal that the hired girls burn in the furnaces and ranges of the land. Lately we have had expert testimony to the effect that the off business is hazardous and that the coal business is hazardous. Perhaps in time the phrase, \a hazardous business\ will come to mean a business in which men make abnormal profits. Of all the schemes put forward to help the unemployed one of the most alluring is the proposal by the Glas- gow corporation to construct, at a cost of $80,000,000, a great battleship canal between the Forth and the Clyde, and thus to link up the North sea with the Atlantic. A Matamoros newspaper calls atten- tion to a test of the pumping of water In the Rio Grande region for irrigation compared to the older method of con- structing dams. A 36 -inch pump with 16,000 gtellons' capacity on a 24 -foot lift, was operated at a fuel cost of 62% cents an hour. In New Jersey an attempt will be made to restore to life the next vic- tim of the electric chair. .It has fre- quently been contended that electrocu- tion was not .fatal and that resusci- tation was possible. Still, nobody pro- poses to take that sort of electric treatment for his health. Although there is no national law against using the flag or shield of the United States for advertising purposes, the cbmmissioner of patents has lately exercised his discretion, and decided that be will register no trade marks which contain the arms of tho United States or of any state or city, or any part of such arms. One of the most interesting conclu- sions reached by the first Internation- al Congress on Good Roads, recently held in Paris, is that automobiles do little harm to the roads If their av- erage speed is not more than ten miles, and their maximum speed 15 miles an hour. If that is the case, the remedy looks simple. -- Managing the finances has often proved the rock on which Latin-Amee lean government has been wrecked. The fact that American rule of Cuba, while meeting all expenses, has been such that Gov. Magoon will turn over $1,500,000 to the new native adminis- tration constitutes an. object lesson that may be highly valuable. Election bets are always objection- able. Now and then, however, one La recorded which has an amusing side. In New York a young woman who manifested great interest in the out- come of the recent presidential elec- tion was asked why she was so ex- cited. \Because she said: \if Mr. Taft wins, I have promised to marry a certain young man.\ \But suppose Mr. Bryan wins?\ \Oh in that case the young man will marry me\ • ' Grafters\ in Australia are worthy people, for \to graft\ there means to work hard.

The plan as outlined by Mr. Saucer , man is to take boys from the age of nine to 16 and organize them into plants or companies of 50 or 100. He would have these boys hold monthly meetings at which time they would discuss and be taught economy, finance and how to earn money, clean living and everything in line with in- dustry and morals. Each boy on join- ing the club will receive $1. The boy must deposit with his dollar 50 cents, to show good faith. Starting his bank account with $1.50, each boy will re- ceive one penny per day for three years, and at the end of that period he will receive an additional Si. This will give them $12 if they have not saved one cent themselves. He ur- ges them to save their nickels and dimes, so as to be prepared to start life right. WINNER OF NOBEL PRIZE. Prof. Eucken, Given Award in Litera- ture, Author of Noted Works. Boston.—Prof. Rudolph Eucken of the - University of Jena, who has been awarded the Nobel toise in Illi'tal iii', was on the program of the Fourth In- ternational Congress of Religioue I.lb erals which was held in Boston Sep- tember 22 to 27, 1907. As he was un- able to appear in person, his paper upon the subject \What Does a Free Christianity Require in Order to Be- come Victorious?\ was read at the meeting in Pilgrim hall of the depart- ment of religious history and philoso- phy on the afternoon of September 24. Rev. George A. Gordon presided and the paper Was read by Rev. Charles W Wendte. Dr. Eucken is 62 years of age and since 1871 has been professor of phil- osophy in the University of Jena His published volumes have dealt with the philosophy of religion and the fundamental conceptions of thought and the meaning of life. He has published many works in German. some of which are \Fundamental Ideas of To Peg,\ \Unity of the Men tal Life,\ Great Thinkers and Theis Views of Life,\ \The Struggle for a Spiritual Content of Life,\ \Funda- omelet, by Wa/de V, --,,t Mrs. Phil Sheridan, widow of the famous Civil war general.

In the Coal Felds Where the Most Ap- proved Methods of Rescue In Mine fisasters Will Be Taught, Washington.—Carrying out its ef- forts to reduce the number of fatalities In coal mines, the United States geo- logical survey is about to establish rescue stations in the principal coal fields of the country, in addition to the experiment station now located at Pittsburg. The new station wil: be at or near the greatest centers of accidents, and it will be the purpose of the experts to teach the miners and mine bosses how to use the most approved appara- tus for mine rescue work. Government mining engineers thor- oughly trained in the use of rescue apparatus will be assigned these sta- tions, and they will be ready at a moment's notice to go to any distance in the district. The experts will be equipped with oxygen helmets, which will enable them to enter a mine at once, even though it is filled with gas or smoke These stations also will be head- quarters for the engineers for the study of the waste of coal in mining, one of the important problems before the geological survey. It is the intention to have station fitted up with an air every tight room, where gas can be generated. The coal mining companies are to be invited to send picked men to these stations, where they will be trained by the government experts in the use of the oxygen helmets. It is not the purpose of the government to engage in general rescue work, but rather to demonstrate this apparatus until such time as the mine owners have thor- oughly trained rescue crews at their mines. One of the rescue stations will be at 'Urbana, Ill., in connection with the University of Illinois. A second station will be located probably at Ra- ton, N. M. One plan is to locate a station at Knoxville, Tenn., in connection with MINERS the University of Tennessee, which is located at Knoxville and has a mining course. George Rice, mining engineer, will have charge of all mining inquiries at the station, and J. W. Paul, former state mine inspector of West Virginia, will have supervisory charge of all rescue work. At these stations not only will op- portunity be given the miners to be- come familiar with the rescue ap- paratus, but safety lamps of all de- signs will be tested for their general safety and efficiency in the presence of the misters and the mine owners. DIDN'T WANT HIS ARMS. Poorhouse Inmate Found Their Ab- sence Relieved Him of Want. --- St. Paul, Minn. --An aversion to work Is believed to be the reason for John Anderson, a cripple, not calling for a pair of arms that had been made to order for him by the St. Paul Artificial Limb Company, of which John Mc- Guire is manager. Before the new arms thought of sprouting for John Anderson's shoul- ders, he was a resident of Mat - shall, Lyon county. Although harmless, he was a cumbersome charge and the county commissioners decided to pay John's expenses to St. Paul and buy him a pair of arms which would ena- ble him, by industry, to pay a portion of his keep. John thought he could ac- complish more withotIt arms than with them. The order was given to the St. Paul company for one pair of the best arms, guaranteed to work. John came to St. Paul, was met at the depot by Mr. Mc- Guire, and taken to Bethesda hospital, because it was found awkward to feed him in the hotels. John called once at the company's place at 27 East Sev- enth street for a \try -on,\ and then disappeared. Mr. McGuire has the arms and he expects that he will have the money, hut professional pride demands the pa- tient. They say that John has gone to a far country, or else back to Mar- shall, without the working implements, In the hope that people will again lis- ten to his tale of woe. Finds Key to Inscription Dr Hemel Will Throw New Light on Mateo. of Rome. Stanford University, Cal.—A discov- ery which will have important results in the world of science has been made public by Prof. George Hempl, Stan ford's professor of philology. Accord- ing to statements made by him, he has discovered the key to ancient inscrip- tions on Etruscan tombs and columns, so long a mystery to archaeologists. Tbe professor has become widely known by solving the inscriptions on Gernitin runes Prof Hemel declared that his find will have far reaching results upon inc-lent Italian history and upon the disputed facts of Latin grammar and etymology. But 60 inscriptions out of a mass of R.000 have thus far been de- clphersit tv hint, but the translation or these, ho pays, has been enough to show that the history of Italy as writ- ten at present. must be greatly modi- fied when his work is completed. The popular theory that the Etruscans and Romans were entirely different peoples Is entirely exploded by this discovery. declared ProtHernpl. As made clear by him, the language of these neighboritig nations was alike in all important respects, save its writing, and the conetealon, he de- clares. is that the nation sprang from mental Outlines for a New View of saint: , rte.

ROMANCEOFETION SALE OF UNCLAIMED EXPRESS UNITES LOVERS. Norwegian Harvest Hand Comes Into Possession of Sweethearts' Letters and Heals a Broken Heart, St. Paul, Minn.—At u sale of un- claimed baggage held in the Union depot Herbert Leonard of Plainfield. Wis., paid $7.50 for one lot of five bundles, lu one of which he found some old letters, and having no use for them threw them away. Adolph Berg, a transient, looked upon this careless waste of effects with budding curiosity, pawed heedlessly about among the debris, sorted out a few let (era idly, perused them and stuck them excitedly into his bosom and made his rapidly from the depot to a saloon at Stbh-y and Rob- ert streets. Ile ordered a glass of beer for an excuse—leaving it un- touched -sand buried himself in read - Me the letters he had found in the baggage scrap heap. Berg mid been a resident of Amer- ica nearly five years. Ile came from Norway and engaged in the restaurant business at Minot, N. D. He had bad luck there and took a claim near Bis- marck. He proved up on this and took a job as a farm laborer in the Carrington neighborhood. Ws job on the Carrington brunch of the Great Northern provad a good cue for a time. Now when Adolph left Norway he left behind Hilda Aase, with whom he was deeply in love. While he was in America he promised her he would send for her had they would get mar- ried and make their home here. But things did go so awry with all of Adolph's brave plans that he continu- ally declined in fortune until he got the job near Carrington. Thus, in an indirect manner, -the story of Virgil's \Aeneid\ receives scientific corroboration. Dr. Jordan, president of Stanford university„ said: \Dr. Hempl has made a most impor- tant discovery. The deciphering of these Etruscan inscriptions overturns the popular idea that there is no con- nection between the Romans and the Etruscans. Dr. Hemp), with his key to Etruscan inscriptions, will make enor- mous changes in our views of the an- cient history of Rome and Greece.\ So then about a year ago he sent for Hilda to come in the spring of this year. Hilda prepared to do so, but for reasons not disclosed she did not make the trip and set the time off un- til July. Meanwhile matters were going bad with Adolph. The slump came during the winter, hit labor like a blast, cheapened it and threw those that had any sense of their value out of a job. So with Adolph. Meanwhile he looked for the com- ing of Hilda with renewed fears. He feared that the place he was able to provide for her would not meet her expectations in this rich country of America, and wrote her in July not to come until she should hear from him again. After writing Hilda this he secured a position on a threshing machine crew and worked throughout the Da- kotas. He received the letter from Hilda announcing that she had started, but believed she had received his own letter before starting, telling her not to come, and dismissed the matter from his mind. So hard have matters gone since that time that Adolph Berg has writ- ten no letters to Christiania to the woman of his heart. Little did he know that. Itilda. last July. duly ticketed by the immigration officials that make one's trip easy came to America and North Dakota, looking for her long -lost love. He did not knew that she had been caught in the whita of the busy world about St. Paul and the northwest, and, failing to find him, had returned hastily to her native land, depressed to the oblivion of all else at the thought of the possi- ble defection and desertion of him who was most dear to her. In the debris at the Union station Adolph Berg found letters written by his own self, and they were in a piece of baggage that Hilda had once owned. It did not take Adolph Berg long to find out where the package came from and learn or divine the true coin -se of his love -lam n lady of Christiania. Berg, who has some money saved up from his threshing experience, sat down that night in the dingy room of his rooming house on Robert street and wrote Hilda to come again to America, inclosing an express order to cover the expense. Herbert Leonard, who bought the unclaimed effects which were forgot- ten by Hilda at the St. Paul baggage station in her sad katabasis hack to Norway, is also a thresher, by coin- cidence, and has been employed at Maxbass, N. D., and Valley City. His home is located at Plainfield. Wis., where are also the other effects of Hilda. to which she has no legal right, but which would probably be returned upon satisfactory arrangement Had His Coffin Twenty Years, North Kingston, R.

Aromer.am...a..• \Deep down in the nature of every properly constituted men Is the desire to own some land.\ A writer in the Iowa State Register thus tersely ca- plet:tea a well-known truth. The quell - Lien is where is the beat land to be had at the lowest prices, and this the saute writer poluts out in the same an Ude. The fact is not disguised that the writer has a personal interest in the statement of his cave, and there is no hidden meaning when he refers to Western Canada as presenting great- er possibilities than any other part oi the American Continent, to the man who is inclined to till the soil for a livelihood and possible competence. What Interests one are the arguments advanced by this writer, and when fairly analyzed the conclusion is reached that no matter what personal interest the writer may have had, his reasons appear to have the quality of great soundness. The climatic condi- tions of Western Canada are fully as good as those of Minnesota, the Dako- tas or Iowa, the productiveness of the soil is as great, the social conditions are on a parity, the laws are as well established and as carefully observed. In addition to these the price of land Is much less, easier to secure. So, with these advantages, why shouldn't this --the offer of Western Canada—be embraced. hundreds of thousands of settlers now there, whole:, homes were originally in the United States, appear to be—are satisfied. Once in awhile complaints are heard, but the Canadians have never spoken of the country as an Eldorado no matter what they may have thought. The writer happened to have at hand a few letters, written by former residents of the United States, from which one or two extracts are submitted. These go to prove that the writer in the Regis- ter has a good basis of fact in support of his statements regarding the excel- lency of the grain growing area of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. On the 29th of April of this year W. R. Conley, of Lougheed. Alberta, wrote a friend in Detroit. He says: \The weather has been just tine ever since I came here in March, and I believe one could find if he wanted to some small bunches of snow around the edge of the lake. There is a frost near- ly every morning: at sunrise it begins to fade away, then those blue flow- ers open and look as fresh as if there had been no frost for a week. . . . There is no reason why this country should not become a garden of Eden: the wealth is in the ground and only needs a little encouragement from the government to induce capital in here. There is everything here to build with: good clay for brick; coal under- neath, plenty of water in the spring lakes, and good springs coming out of the banks.\ Three Names in Three Hours. Savannah.
