Fishing for Bologna
Lands Men in Jai!
New York.—It was only bologna, bin
Mrs. Annie Hewer, Gotham delicates
sen store owner, decided to find out
just where* it all went. For the last
few months she has been missing
bologna from her window. It was
taken without forcing an entrance to
the store.
Perplexed policemen and neighbors
have been dogging the footsteps ot
those who passed the store during the
night, but it was not until recently
that they were rewarded and the mys
tery was solved.
A night watchmen saw two men
halt in front of the bblogna. The two
men lirst scanned ilia neighborhood.
Then one climbed upon the door, pushed
a slick, to which was attached a
string and hook, through the transom,
and in n minute fished out a twenty-
inch salami. The “fishermen” were ar
rested and while they were waiting to
ho arraigned Hie evidence came ueai
to being roasted. The patrolman left
it oir n radiator in the court, hut the
sizzling was discovered just' in time
to save it from destruction. Mrs.
Hewer identified the salami and val
ued it at 61.20.
“Stream Line” Effect
for Shoes Predicted
Lynn, Mass.—Indian prints and
block-printed lines will predominate iu
the fabrics, while softj rich hues ot
blue, green, maize, beige, Indian yel
lows, jade and some shades of red
will meet milady’s shoe style require
ments fids summer. This is the ad
vance information that conies from de
signers at Hie .^ioe factories here.
Imitation reptile shoes are believed
to he on the wane, but the manufac
turers are anticipating an increased
demand for the real tilings In snake
and lizard skin shoes. White shoes
will be in greater demand Mils sum
mer than for many seasons pasfi they
believe.
The smartest shoos will have French
lines, short foreparts and high arches
for dress wear, hut the sports shoos
will be distinctly American, with
stream lines suggesting automobiles oi
angular wing effects, revealing the
"airplane Influence."
Etna’s “Cloud-Tree’*
One of the most striking phenomena,
of the last outbreak of I he central
crater of Mount Etna was the forma
tion of an “eruptive pine,” or “cloud-
tree," ^directly above the crater. A
famous example of these volvanic
smoke-trees was seen standing over
Vesuvius during Hie destruction of
I’ompeii. But Etna is a far mightier
and loftier volcano than Vesuvius.
The verge of its great crater is nearly
11,000 feet above sea level and Hie
“eruptive pine” mentioned rose more
Ilian 10,000 feet above the crater. It
was finally blown off by the wind,
hiding the sun ns it drifted away in
an elongated black cloud.
Shining Example of
Art “Mela to Ol der”
A painter In Raphael's or Rubens’
time, must have been a singularly in
artistic person, judged by modern
standards. He generally began Ids
career as an apprentice, grinding col
ors and stretching canvases or pre
paring panels for some eminent em
ployer. Later, he was allowed to work
on the less Important portions of Ids
master’s works, and still later, lie
opened a studio of Ids own. But he
didn’t call it a studio. It was a shop,
equipped to turn out art by the piece
or on time. Its proprietor was ready
and willing to furnish whatever was
wanted, from a sign for another shop
to the ceiling of a chapel. Ilis main
concern was to please his customers,
make as much money ns possible, and
turn out u good job. And because
Self-expression, In its only true sense,
is almost as involuntary a process ns
the growth of a man’s hair or the col
oring of Ids eyes, ho managed, In the
course of n busy life, to stamp Ids
work with nn Individuality before
which wo still stand in admiration,
Ilaydn ground out over a hundred
symphonies because Ids chief job, un
der Prince Esterhazy, was to furnish
symphonies; Bach wrote Ids church
cantatas because he would have lost
Ids job If he hadn’t. Mozart wrote
his Requiem mass because a customer
came along wjjo wanted one. Shake

Embroidery Art Goes
Far Bach in History
The making of embroidery was an
established Industry in China cen
turies before tho visit of Marco Polo.
The earliest extant specimen is as
signed to the Eighth century, but
it Is certain that this art was fol
lowed at a very much earlier date.
The Impermanence of the materials
used is alone responsible for the non
existence of very ancient Chinese em
broidery.
Embroidery made In Cldna fq£ the
western market on European patterns
Is n recent development, having been
first introduced and fostered by tlie
missionaries, about thirty years ago.
Certain kinds of embroidery the Chi
nese have not as yet duplicated, such
as those of Made'ra and Cyprus, al
though reports from Madeira indicate
that several houses There have turned
their attention to China as a field for
future production.—New York Times.
Churches Not Always
of Steel and Slone
A missionary to tho Arctic regions
recently found the world’s queerest
church. This stands on Blacklend
Island, Cumberland sound, and Is con
structed entirely of sealskins. Wood
and oilier building material not be
ing available, the missionary responsi
ble for its erection sewed the skins
together and stretched them over
whalebone "girders.”
Another missionary once built a
church of snow, with seats, altar and
pulpit complete. He slated that his
snow-built edifice was warmer than
most churches lie had visited In oilier
countries.
Among cathedrals, probably the
most curious is lobe found In Uganda.
Viewed from n distance, it looks like
a giant haystack, but at close quar
ters it is soon lo he built of grass and
mud. This si range building seals 4,-
000 persons.
Checks for Small Amounts
There is a federal law staling that
"no person shall make, issue, circulate,
or pay out any note, check, memoran
dum, token, or other obligation for a
loss sum than $1, Intended to circulale
as money or to he received or used in
lieu of lawful money of the United
States and every person so offending
shall he fined not more than $500 or
imprisoned not more than six months,
or both, at (lie discretion of the court."
Many individuals, and even the gov
ernment, make checks for an amount
less than ’ $1, but they are uot in
tended to circulate, hut are only in
tended lo pay the amount of the cheek
to the person tlie check is made pay
able to. A check Is not lawful money
and consequently cannot ha passed as
lawful money. A check Is’a personal
credit Instrument used in place of
money.
Won ar.d Lest
Three young men were dining. After
the menl one of them wagered an
other that the latter could not balance
a glass of water on each hand. The
challenge was accepted. Placing his
hand palm down, fiat on Hie table
top the challenged one let his com
panions place a glass of water on each
of his outstretched hands. “Easy,"
said he. “You win,” replied tlie other
two and they placed the meal checks
in his coat pocket and departed. Amid
the laughter of other diners, the
hoaxed youth had to invoke (lie aid of
n waitress before he’could lie relieved
of his embarrassing burden.—Boston
Globe.
In Mexico
Husbands in Mexico do not -nary
latch keys.
When they have been out late to the
lodge they ring an electric hell or
pound on a icavy wooden gate.
This wakes up tho wife or servants
and all the neighbors, hut no one kicks
Very hard, for it is an undent custom.
Mexican wives do not wait up for
their husbands to come home, armed
with rolling pins.
Tho husband can't Sneak upstairs
with liis shoes in his bond, lie makes
enough noise when lie arrives to wake
up people for ninny blocks and then
wifey gets up and attends to his case.

Faragraphar Akin to
Ancient Court Jester
This republican counterpart of tho’
king’s jester Is the newspaper pnru-
grnpher and pnrugrnphcr-cnrtoonlst.
His development, nml Hie privileged
character of his position in our sys
tem, constitute one of the most ini
prosslve curiosities of modern Jour
nalism, Albert Jay Nock writes, in
Harper’s Magazine.
No more exact parallel to the prim
itive institution could he devised. The
pm'ugrnpher has Inherited all Hie
jester's privileges, neither more nor
fewer, nml exactly tho same sot of
expectations are put upon him.
The freer Ids speech to tho sov
ereign lord, the closer and shrewder
his approach to the plain, natural
truth of things, the more he is np
predated nml applauded. The wider
Ills experience of human nature and
the closer his interpretations come to
the risldual common sense of man
kind, (he more firmly, by common
consent, ho Is fixed In his Job. The
more profound and subversive his Im
plications, the stronger his position
nt (ho republican sovereign’s court.
Moreover, there Is no one to contest
or to share Ills privileges; he is n
unique figure In n unique function. If
the prophet, the publicist, (lie pro
fessor, lecturer, or so-called public
servant undertook to assume his lib
erties and prerogatives he would at
once come to grief iu nn avalanche of
general disapproval.
GOES FR0SS3 HOSPITAL
TO FACE EXECUTION
Skunk Warns Thrice
The skunk is n sportsman and gives
nn opponent three warnings. If he
meets you lie will not turn out, but
will stamp on the ground with his
forepaws like a little horse. That Is
danger signal number one, says Na
ture Magazine. If you keep on com
ing lie will shako Ills bend sadly, as If
saying to himself, “There’s going to
be trouble," and will thereupon hoist
aloft his resplendent tall. That Is
signal number two. If rushing on
your doom you will advance, Hie
drooping white tip of said tail will he
slowly erected. That Is the third and
last warning. If then you stand still
or slowly draw back, all will yet he
well. One step forward will cost one
suit of clothes.
Capricious “Appetites”
A record ease of foreign substances
in a human stomach is described In
Ilygcia Magazine. Two Cunndian
physicians reported that 2,533 differ
ent metallic objects were found iu a
woman’s stomach. They included
bent pins, tacks, corset steels, garter
fasteners, needles, buttons, beads,
washers, an American penny and n
pen point,
'I’lie woman, who Is forty-two years
old, had been swallowing the articles
over a period of years but felt no
pain until recently. An operation was
performed.
The greatest number of foreign oh
jects found in a stomach previously
was 1.140 In n case reported In 1011
They Sing
Illustrative of the importance thai
music plays in the life of Welshmen
there was n war-time anecdote which
told of eight Britons who were found
In a dugout after n 12-hour bombard
-noiit. The two Irishmen were still
fighting, Hie two Scotchmen were
holding a debate, the Englishmen had
riot been Introduced, but the two
Welshmen were busy organizing nn
oratorio society.
No Medium of Exchange
A small colored boy was called on
by one of Ids white neighbors to do an
errand for her. After it was done she
smiled graciously and said;
“Much obliged. Bill."
Bill looked at her llsedly and
queried:
".Miss Mollie, what store Is that
whar 1 Ida git candy for ‘muck
obliged’?’’—Youth’s fjompaulou.
Mexican Bandit IJtahc
Tradition of Bravado,
Mexico City.—Another Mexican bad
man, with a brief hut lurid i ust, has
passed Into Hie limbo by the lirin ;
squad route.. Ho is Pedro Reyes, for
mer soldier, bandit and community
terrorize)', and when tho execution
squad did Its work Reyes died Jti I
about ns nil Mexican bandits die, with |
plenty of bravado and nerve.
Bui his execution was slightly differ
ent from that of Hie ordinary law
breaker. He had been trapped by po
lice agents who were forced to wound
him when lie attempted to make Ids
escape, lie was taken in an ambu
lance to a hospital at Tampico, where
he was lliowed to rest a few days
while ids ease was being carefully
weighed. The* balance of justice was
for execution.
So Honor Reyes was taken from his
eot Into a courtyard. lie looked nt
ids captors nml luuglied when they
wanted to blindfold him, and when
they suggested he tell them who coin-
pored Ids hand, which had created a
groat amount of terror, he simply
looked ut them tind declared brazen
ly: “It Is only a baby who would
tell such n thing, and I am a man.
Why should I denounce anyone?”
Wants to Write Epitaph.
"As n favor, could you lot mo have
n scrap of paper to write my epitaph?”
lie asked.
This was granted, nnd Reyes, sim
ply wrote while seated upon a stone,
because he was too weak from Ids
wounds lo stand, "Here lies the ban
dit, Pedro Reyes.”
lie glanced up from ids hard seat
and Hie firing squad did Us work, ills
body was Ie4»t on exhibition for n few
hours, then taken to the public cem
etery for burial.
Reyes was once a loyal soldier, It Is
sold, having won recognition for ids
valor nnd was promoted lo a cap
taincy. But the discipline irked
him and lie wont in for the more sen
sational game of highway robbery, nnd
apparently loved to bask in Hie glory
of being termed “a had man.”
He aided In organizing ti band of
desperadoes which included some of
Mexico’s worst men, among them the
Turrublotes brother?, Nicolas Ramirez,
Jose Martinez (El Chninuscndu), I’ht-
tarco Trevino and Filherto I.echuga,
who was for two years head of tho
band. When Leclmgn was captured
nnd shot, Reyes ascended lo Hie lead
ership.
Known ao Fine Resident.
lie operated out of the city of Tam
pico, where he lived under nn alias
nnd was known by friends there as
a line resident. But police had watelu I
ids activities, and noted that frequent
ly he would leave town for a period of
15 days and return. It was then In
got in his work of banditry.
When Reyes was executed, police
sa.v it broke up entirely the hand of
which he v.as the head, since o::e l>>
one his followers had been kill; J, cap
tured or had deserted.
He had committed many crimes
ranging from highway robbery to imir
der and was noted not only lor cour
age but for cruelty to Ills victims. In
one I rain robbery alone he escaped
with more than 1C.'),(KM) pesos. He had
perhaps one of the longest crime rec
ords of anybody In recent years in
Mexico and he participated In the fa
mous Ladedo train holdup, not long
ago.
