GULL IN STRANGE MISHAP Bird’* Life Endangered When Its Beak Was Caught Between the Shells of Clam. At first thought it is hard to imagine how a clam could endanger the life of a bird. That such a strange circum¬ stance is not impossible is shown by the following incident. A settler on one of the small islands near Vancouver was returning to his home ty way of a beach of hard sand, when he beheld an unusually large flock of seagulls gathered in a compact mass and beating with their beaks and wings upon the sand. Evi¬ dently they were attacking some en¬ emy. Overhead dozens of gulls wheeled and screamed in evident ex¬ citement. The settler was almost upon the fighting birds before they burst apart, and flew, chattering, toward the clouds. One, however, lay flapping upon the ground, and the man saw that a monster clam held the gull’s beak in a viselike grip. It was too heavy for the bird to fly away with, and for all the gull's frantic strug¬ gles; it could not loosen the clam’s tenacious grip. With his hunting knife' the man pried open the shells and freed the captive. The gull was exhausted from its desperate efforts, and at first could only stagger like a drunken sailor toward the water. Finally, however, it flew away, and soon returned in the van of a cloud of gulls come to inspect the enemy that had trapped one of their tribe.—St. Andrews Bea¬ con. The Tailor Got Even. The Central Law Journal says that a Philadelphia tailor was shocked over the size of the bill rendered by a law¬ yer he engaged to sue a neighbor and later when the lawyer bought a suit of clothes the tailor retaliated by send¬ ing him a bill in the following legal terms; “To measuring and taking or¬ der for one suit, $4.50; warrant and in¬ structions to foreman for executing the same, $3.50; going twice to cloth merchant, $2.25; fees to cloth mer ' chant, $25; cutting the cloth, $8.75; material for working, $5.50; sundries for working, $9; trying on the suit, $2.75; alterations and amendments, $4.50; entering transaction in day¬ book, $2; posting same in ledger, $2; engrossing same, $2.50; writing to the button dealer, $1.25; filing his declara¬ tion—eight sheets, $8; fees to but¬ ton merchant, $9.75; removing the suit by certiorari to your residence, $2.2T>; writing receipt, $1.75; filing same, $12.25; service of same, $1.50; ditto, $1.50; total. $100.25.” Pennsylvania Nature Story. Arthur Neefe of Sweden, Bradford county, set a trap in the woods, and on account of the snows was unable to get to it. Last week it was visited and a lively fox found therein. The captive had been sustained by his fel¬ lows during the Imprisonment. Within reach were a gray rabbit, a white rabbit, four mice and a woodchuck, some of them partially devoured. Im¬ prisoned, he had been visited and nourished by his own tribe. He was taken into further captivity, and other than the loss of the foot by which he had been held in the trap, appears none Che worse for his expe¬ rience.—Philadelphia Record. People who are too fresh are always getting into a pickle. GET POWER The Supply Comes From Food. If we get power from food, why not strive to get all the power we can. That is only possible by selecting food that exactly fits the requirements of the body. “Not knowing how to select the right food to fit my needs, I suffered griev¬ ously for a long time from stomach trouble," writes a lady from a little Western town. “It seemed as if I would never be able to find out the sort of food that was best for me. Hardly anything that I could eat would stay on my stomach. Every attempt gave me heart-burn and filled my stomach with gas. I got thin¬ ner and thinner until I literally be¬ came a living skeleton and in time was compelled to keep to my bed. “A few months ago I was persuaded to try Grape-Nuts food, and it had such good effect from the very beginning that I kept up its use. I was surprised at the ease with which I digested it. It proved to be just what I needed. ‘‘All my unpleasant symptoms, the heart-burn, the inflated feeling which gave me so much pain, disappeared. My weight gradually increased from 93 to 116 lbs., my figure rounded out, my strength came back, and I am now able to do my housework and enjoy it. Grape-Nuts did it.” A ten days trial will show anyone some facts about food. Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read, “The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs. “There’s a Reason."

HE WAS TOO POPULAR Treacherously Killed by Bullying Foreman Whose Jealousy Was Aroused—Bullets Removed From His Revolver. Watonga, Okla.—One part of north¬ western Oklahoma which is rich in the myths of the cowboy days is the land to the north of the Eagle Chief. Much of the early lore of romantic nature has been lost, but there are a few old-timers who vividly remember the trials of pioneer life and of the romances which, like the cattle, once covered the valley of this small stream. The mecca for the cowmen was the frontier town of Caldwell, Kan. , One of the most famous ranches along the Eagle Chief was the T-5. Every ranch had its history, many of them reading like fiction more than of the life which these big-hearted men of the plains led. Of the T-5 this story will deal. On a hill overlooking the valley of the Eagle Chief is an almost forgot¬ ten grave. Johnny Potts. Within the grave lie the remains of Johnny Potts. Where he came from it is not known, but those who were his friends believed him to be the son of a rich Eastern man. One Ben Franklin was foreman on the T-5 ranch. Franklin boasted of the many men that had fallen at the point of his gun. Men who worked under him must obey; they had to work, for to be obstinate was like playing with powder over a fire. About this time Johnny Potts ap¬ peared on the T-5 asking for work. Potts was unknown to them. He dis¬ played signs that he was well edu¬ cated and had not been raised in the rough cow camps of the West. His work on the T-5 was faultless. He soon became very popular with the T-5 boys, which fact made for him an everlasting enemy • in the person of Franklin. Many times the foreman sought a quarrel with Potts either with the intention of killing him or to have an excuse of getting a I Li m fit n Was Covering the Foreman. him discharged. The cowboys, know¬ ing the dangerous nature of Franklin, warned Potts to be careful. A few weeks later Franklin met Potts at a place in Caldwell. Frank¬ lin started to draw his revolver but before his hand had hardly reached the holster Potts had drawn his re¬ volver and was covering the foreman. Instead of shooting Franklin he took the gun, extracted the shells, handed the gun back to its owner and told Franklin to go back to the ranch and milk the cows. Although frustrated in his attempt on Potts’ life, his wounded pride demanded revenge. Victim of Treachery. About two weeks later a dance was held at the T-5 ranch. Girls from Caldwell came as invited guests. While the dance was in full progress a visitor at the ranch came to Potts asking him for the loan of his re¬ volver to shoot a coyote that was about to stampede the horses. The revolver was returned to the owner soon afterward. Potts did not ex¬ amine the gun to see whether or not the other shells had been exploded. Later in the evening Franklin and Potts met. The former started a quarrel. Franklin drew his gun but before 1 he could fire Potts’ revolver snapped twice in the face of the fore¬ man. Franklin fired and Potts fell dead. Someone had extracted the shells from his gun. Franklin later escaped from the dance hall and drifted to Montana. Potts’ body lies today on the hill¬ top overlooking the silent stream of the Eagle Chief. His grave is unmarked. BURNS HIS WAY OUT OF JAIL Prisoner Uses Red Hot Poker to Effect Escape at Carrollton, Ohio. Carrollton, O.—James Ross, twenty two, member of an alleged Black Hand gang, has escaped from the county jail. Two of his associates were caught in a similar attempt. Using a red-hot poker Ross and his companions, Nicholas Picelli, twenty-three, and William Ballerni, twenty-two, burned a hole through the ceiling of the jail corridor. Ross climbed through it and escaped but his companions were caught. Sheriff George Galbraith and a posse searched the country about Carrollton but could find no trace of Ross. The three men had been arrested charged with attempting to blackmail a family on the threat of destroying their home. THE ELLIJA.Y TIMES. ELLIJAY. GEORGIA. GAVE PORTER SHOE AND LEG WITH IT Latter Was Wooden and Sleep¬ ing Car Passenger Had It in His Berth. Spokane Wash.—C. E. Cranke of Colville for years has had a well-es¬ tablished reputation as a practical joker, but his latest exploit in this line, which he is relating to his ac¬ quaintances with great glee, created such a commotion in a Pullman sleep¬ er on an O. W. R. & N. train near Pendleton recently that the crew had to take a hand to quell the disorder and quiet the passengers. Awakened during the night by some one rummaging around under his berth Mr. Cranke discovered the colored porter down on his knees poking into the recesses under the seats with a cane.

The porter explained that he could find but one of Mr. Cranke’s shoes to shine and was endeavoring to locate the other, which happened to be still on the foot of Mr. Cranke's artificial leg, which he had carefully deposited in the net in the berth. Reaching into the net he got the leg and passed it foot first through the curtains, just in front of the colored man's face. The latter took hold of it, but when he drew it out into the light and saw there was a leg attached he dropped it and ran through the train scream¬ ing at the top of his voice. “I never heard such a commotion in my life, and the passengers came tumbling out of their berths pell mell, imagining there was a hold-up" said Mr Cranke. “It required the com¬ bined efforts of the entire train crew to quiet them and get them back to bed and it was almost impossible to induce the porter to return to the car.” PUTS OUT BOMB; LOSES NOSE Pittsburgher Gets a Close Shave and Extinguishes Harmless Fuse Thrown by Joker. Pittsburgh, Pa.—William White had just been talked to sleep in the barber shop of John Beymer on the North side when with a crash of glass through the front window came a piece of lead pipe with a burning “fuse” attached. So startled was Beymer that a quick move¬ ment of his razor shaved White’s nose. All except White fled. White grabbed a towel to stop the blood, and noting the lighted “bomb,’’ drenched it with a mug of water. Bar¬ bers and patrons cautiously crept back and found the bomb dead. Police who were summoned found the bomb's fuse was rope and that the lead pipe was empty. White lost a good portion of his nose. The police are searching for the “bomb" thrower. BIG COON ATTACKS COPPER Policeman Has Lively Tussle With Furry Animal Who Jumps Him While on Beat. Seattle, Wash.—Pedestrians out late recently on Queen Anne Hill were as¬ tonished to see Patrolman A. H. Ellis, revolver in hand, chasing a large, furry animal down McGraw street, be¬ tween Sixth and Seventh avenues West. The two dashed around the cor¬ ner and up an alley. A moment latfer came three shots, and the patrol¬ man emerged from the alley dragging by the tail a monster raccoon. Ellis was walking his beat about ten o'clock when the animal sprang from the ground and clung to him. He shook it off. It lunged at him again and this time got under his coat and sunk its teeth in the patrolman's thigh. He again shook the animal off and pursued it down the street and up the alley, where he managed to shoot it. MUSIC TO CONVERT CROOKS Calms “Jags” in Cells, Too.

I guarantee that one spoonful of this harmless liquid liver medicine wHl relieve the headache, biliousness, coated tongue, ague, malaria, sour stomach or any other distress caused by a torpid liver as quickly as a dose of vile, nauseating calomel, besides it will not make you sick or keep you from a day’s work. I want Defeated Soldiers Who Are Ac¬ corded Distinction. Defenders Forced Through Circum¬ stances to Surrender Fortified Places Usually Treated With Generosity by Captors. When Przemysl, the great fortress on the Hungarian frontier, fell into the hands of the Russians, the terms of surrender provided that the garrison should be accorded “honors of war.” As a consequence, the defenders marched out with their colors flying, and surrendered to the commander of the attacking forces to the sounds of drums and bugles. The prisoners were neither deported to Siberia >Sor sent to concentration camps, but were placed on parole in a certain town of Russia, and the officers were allowed to retain their swords. It is interesting Ot recall that at Port Arthur, the greatest siege ever known, at the end of seven months’ investment the Russians mads., various offers of all surrender'll the honors they coul^uarch Kt the Japanese out with T frar. demanded unc j^Ki SSt iodf 1 surrender. Ordinarily, surrrJJPr/of these siege opera¬ tions, a a fortress is un¬ conditional, and the vanquished tacitly agree to accept whatever term3 the victor, in his wisdom, may impose, re¬ lying upon the iStier’s magnanimity for good and lenient treatment. The usual course is this: The garrison is disarmed. They are made to fall in, all so many prisoners, and escorted to wherever their conq berors decide they shall be detained. , The conquerors, of course, see that the escort is a strong guard, properly armed, able to put down at once any attempt on the prisoners' part to es¬ cape or disobey orders. Worst of all, and certainly the most galling to any real soldier, the almost sacred trophies of the different regiments become the spoils of the victors. Guns, ammunition, colors and such like things al! have to be given up, though men have given their lives to defend them. For the future they grace the homes of the enemy, or are turned against their old owners in the field. It is in these things that the humilia¬ tion of surrender becomes compfete; yet all of it is saved when the beaten garrison is granted the “honors of war,” as the Austrians were at Prze¬ mysl That means the defenders were simply “defeated, but not disgraced.” By its use. the successful besiegers admit to the world that the garrison were able to make something better than an unconditional surrender. Their heroic defense had not left them at their last gasp; they could maintain hostilities for some time yet; and, al¬ though they would undoubtedly be beaten at the finish, the fortress could only be taken after more or less had been suffered. In such a case al! that is demanded of the beaten men is that they should evacuate all their positions. These the enemy take possession of, as what they have been striving for. All the colors and other trophies are retained by the garrison. The defenders are not prisoners of war. compelled to sur¬ render. They are simply beaten men, voluntarily giving up the unequal con¬ test. They are not disarmed and escorted by guards. Mustering under their own leaders, as they did at Przemysl, they have no enemy over them giving or¬ ders. Headed by their owr bands, with their own colors flying above them, and no foreign flag near, they “march out” of the positions they have so nobly held, saluted by their success¬ ors and acclaimed by the world as he¬ roes for whom circumstances have been too strong. It has been previously settled where they should go, and thither they march by themselves, thefr officers wearing their swords by their sides, just as if they were victors, instead of con¬ quered men. They merely evacuate their positions, and to all purposes are free men, not prisoners. This is marching out with the “hon¬ ors of war.” The custom is an old one, and of late years seldom practiced; it was left to the Russians to revive it.

Calomel is poison—it’s mercury—it attacks the bones often causing rheumatism. Calomel is dangerous. It sickens—while my Dodson’s Liver Tone is safe, pleasant and harmless. Eat anything afterwards, be¬ cause it can not salivate. Give it to the children be¬ cause it doesn’t upset the stomach or shock the liver. Take a spoonful tonight and wake up feeling fine and ready for a full day’s work. Get a bottle! Try it! If it doesn't do exactly what I say, tell your dealer to hand your money back. Every druggist and store keeper In the South knows me and knows of my wonderful discovery of a medicine that takes the place of dangerous calomel.

The windows should be kept open day and night in summer and in winter the room should be aired two or three times a day. Harmless. The commuter was plainly excited.

To write a long list ot plays which have in their day figured as war plays would neither prove nor disprove any¬ thing except this—that they were so written as to deserve recognition from posterity, or not; if they were they* got it, and if they were badly done, nobody remembers them; certainly the fact that they exploit a passage at arms, a battle of war, never kept had plays out of the limbo of forgetful¬ ness. Dryden’s enormous product includes at least two dozen war plays, and they are the deadest in our literature, ac¬ cording to the Theater Magazine. He loves alarms and excursions, but while one ode devoted to them in a spectacu¬ lar way is spouted by every schoolboy, the plays of this poet in which war as a spectacle figures even more grandiloquently are quite lost to all but the bibliophile. The first war plays that naturally recur to the Anglo-Saxon mind are Shakespeare’s histories. These are war plays, indeed, if any exist in Eng¬ lish. Armies march and countermarch through them, battles are joined, lost or won, cities are besieged and taken, the sight and sounds of sixteenth cen¬ tury warfare are constantly heard and seen; they are perhaps the model war plays of our language; and Shake¬ speare's free hand was the only hand to deal with them.
