Scalped by Indians 56 Years Ago; Dies in Bed lireut Bend, Kans.?Sculped und left for dead by Comanche Indians on the famous Santa Fe trail years ago, Allen W. Edwards lived to a ripe old age, dying at Ids home at Waukomls. Okla., at seventy-four, lie is survived by his wife and several children. It was while he was a hoy of eight een that Mr. Edwards almost lost his life under the scalping knives of the Indians In Kansas. With a company of freighters he traversed the Santa Fe trail with a Itussell, Majors and Wnddell wagon train hound from Ne braska to Santa Fe. At Walnut creek, near Great Bend, the wagon train was ambushed by a war party of hostile Comanches. Edwards had been cnt off from the wagon train at the first attack and stunned by a blow from an Indian war club. Thinking his victim dead the Indian warrior coolly scalped the boy and then left him to join the assault against the wagons which had been drawn up in a circle by the freighters. British Insurance Pays for Surgical Operations London.?Surgical Insurance is the newest thing In England. Several com panies now issue policies for a small premium each year which guarantee, if the holder is obliged to undergo a surgical operation, that all expenses, Including the services of a high-class surgeon, at the best of private hos pitals, will be paid. Applicants for such Insurance must pass a medical examination, and men over fifty and women over forty-five are not consid ered desirable risks. The fifty-year age limit In the case of men as against forty-five In the case of women rather upsets the pre vailing idea that the expectation of life Is greater in a woman than a man. The head of a family may also, In the same policy, Insure his wife and rhlldren against operations. Dental operations are not Included la the poli cies. Water I i Literally Their Staff of Life The most amazing race of human be ings is undoubtedly the El Molo, a tribe of "fishmen," who inhabit the desert wastes bordering Lake Rudolf, In Kenya colony, Africa. This tribe represents the only known specimens of semlamphlbious people and it Is a curious fuct that any tribesman dies If he is kept without water for about three hours. As a rule they drink every hour during the day, for even an hour and a half without water causes crack ing and bleeding of the lips, the Bos ton Transcript says. The El Moro tribesmen spend their days swimming in the waters of Lake Rudolf and fishing from frail rafts constructed with palm branches. Fish is almost their only diet and they have no opportunity of varying their menu, unless they are fortunate enough to spear a hippopotamus. The water of Lake Itudolf is undrinkable to anyone but the El Moro, for it contains a large quuntlty of soda and has an ob Jectlonable taste. The proportion o i soda In that lake Increases yearly, and It Is believed to be this fact that has caused the "fishermen" to becouic u deformed race.
