LITTLE BABY HERCULES.
Feats of Strength of a Three-year-old
In Chicago.
Matt Deegan, Jr., is undoubtedly the
strongest 3-year-old in Chicago. He is
a handsome child and is as tall and as
well developed as most children of twice
his age, with a full chest and strong,
firm legs and arms.
At 18 months this little Hercules pro
pelled a bicycle up and down the side
walks of Rush street, scattering pedes
trians as he rolled past. At years
his arms and back were strong enough
for him to p 11 a buggy in which three
men were seated.
Little Matt’s greatest feat is as fol
lows: A heavily built man of his ac
quaintance was visiting at the Deegan
home. Suddenly the man felt something
tugging at his legs, and »he next thing
he knew little Matt had thrown him
off his feet. Since that time Matt’s fa
ther has rather frowned upon his feati
of strength.—Exchange.

Proposition For Mexico.
The best solution of the Cuban ques
tion is to place the island under the
jurisdiction of Mexico, the leading
Spanish-American republic. The Cu
bans say that they prefer annexation to
the United States, but surely when
they reflect on the matter they must
come to see that Cuba, entering the
Mexican U*'.ion as an integral part of
the federation, will gain in dignity
over American annexation. It is time
for men of Latin American race to join
together in a common effort to make
themselves a political force in the
world, and Cuba-Mexicana is a sensible
way to begin the building up o£ a great
Spanish-American republic which shall
make of the gulf of Mexico and the
great sea below Cuba a new world Med
iterranean. —Mexican Herald.

CONSERVING OF ELOUR.
Compression Into Bricks Is Said to Keep
It Sweet and Wholesome.
Both the British admiralty and the
war department are testing under vari
ous climatic, conditions the new method
of conserving flour. One objection to
the establishment of national granaries
has been the difficulty of storing wheat
for any length of time. The grain ger
minates and is ruined, and to keep vast
quantities in a sound condition has
been pronounced by the royal commis
sion impracticable.
Experiments are being made with a
system of compression into bricks by
hydraulic pressure. The trials show
that flour iso treated is not affected by
damp even under unfavorable condi
tions, is free from mold and is sweet
and wholesome. Moreover, compression
destroys all forms of larval life, and
flour is thereby rendered safe from the
attacks of insects. The saving in stor
age is enormous, as the cubic space oc
cupied by 100 pounds of loose flour will
hold more than 300 pounds of the com
pressed article.—New York Sun.
COLLAR CUT HIS THROAT.
Well Dressed Man of St. Louis Met With
a Peculiar Accident. .
Shadrach Wade of the firm of Wade
& Bros, of St. Louis, contractors, is
what is generally called a swell dresser
and wears the choker collar, which is
the cause of his present grief.
He boarded an Olive street car a few
evenings for down town. When he
arrived at his destination, he hopped off
the car. His foot slipped, and he fell on
the street. He arose and started awaj
and soon felt something trickling down
his neck. He put his hand to his collar
and found it covered with blood. The
pointed corners of the collar had pierced
his throat, making two ugly gashes. He
went to the dispensary, where Dr. New
comb dressed his wounds.—Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
RELIEF IN SIX HOURS.
Distressing Kidney and Bladder dis
eases relieved in six hours by the “New
Great South American Kidney Cure.’ ’
This new remedy is a great surprise on
account of its exceeding promptness in
relieving pain in the bladder, kidney, t
back and every part of the urinary pas
sages in male or female. It relieves re
tention of water and pain in passing is
almost immediately. If you want quick
relief and cure this is your remedy.

Twenty-seven wild ducks were pick

doubtless by the electric lights of the
town, large numbers of ducks flying
southward were seen about daybreak
swooping around. Those secured and
on show in a store there seem to be ut

very pretty fowls.—Washington Post.
