grape and is the finest wine grape in

cultivated on a modern plan the results
have been amazing. The scuppernong
is the most yigorous grower of the
grape family and lives foi over 200
years, is subject to no disease or insect,
and owing to these facts never fails to
produce a large crop each year. The
size of the grape is a source of wonder

A remarkalle accident lately hap
pened on the Valley K, R. A train was
rnnuing forty miles an hour when the
engineer noticed a farmer driving
across the track. He applied the
emergency brake bat the train could
not tte stopped before the engine struck
the W-igcn about midway between the
fro'l ami hind whe- '-. cutting it in two
neatl>. Frank Crawford who was re
turning to his dome in Emlenton, and
who is an old time engineer, put up the
window as soon as possible after the
emergency brake was applied, and to
his i.si.onisnment saw the farmer and
iena with the front of the wagon going
dov. n the road at break-neck speed, the
farmer not even having been knocked
from the seat. Mr Crawford says it
tnore like a chariot race than anything
else. The tra.n was stopped and back
ed up to the scene o f ' the accident, the
trainmen expecting lo find some person
killed, and were overjoyed when in
ior ned that no one was even injured.
Or.t- of the hind wheels of the wagon
was on the pilot of the engine.
At Fort William, Unt., recently, one
of the moat peculiar accidents which
might befall a modern grain-handling
plant occurred when the gigantic eleva
tor of the Ogilvie Milling Co. slid troni
its foundation in the Kaministikwia
river in much the same manner as a
vessel leoyes her wave on being launch
ed. The structure, which cost $250,-
UOO, was one of the tubular steel type,
60 teet wide, about 100 ft long and 180 ft
higU, built on a concrete foundation,
which was supported by 65-foot piling
driven through clay to solid rock. The
elevator had a storage capacity of 500,-
000 bushels, and contained abeftit 400,-
000 bushels. It was built two years
ego. and was one of the most modern
grain-handling plants on the continent,
it bt'ing electrically operated through
out, induction motors supplying the
motive power. It is generally believed
that the defective concrete work was
the cause of the acciuent. The cement
foundation was 10 feet high and only 10
inches in thickness, which, it is now
claimed, wa3 not sufficient to withstand
the enormous weight. The foundation
gave way at one comor, and the whole
wall immediately went to pieces, letting
the steel building elide 30 feet into +he
river

The world s premier magician Kellar.
returns to this city on Monday, Oct
2-.Jnd. at the Majestic Theater. All his
wouderfnl new illusions, and an entire
ly new program of small magic will be
given here. Kellar after years of pains
taking energy, will give his latest
masterpiece. "The Sailor, The Witch
and the Enchanted Monkey," a mystical
deception that bewilders the spectator,
by the seeming incongruity of the
marvelous disappearance of the various
characters, some of them being project
ed through space in a twinkling. This
weird surprise is only one of the many
difH-ult feats that Kellar will perform
during his engagement here, and it is
promised that even all of his previous
efforts have been eclipsed

The piece tells the story of rural life
and a countryman in Boston and the
situations were decidely ludicrous. This
is a very strong organization and re
quests for retutn dates is the word in
every city. Don t fail to see the funny
farmer.
Minstrels —October £sth.
The scenerv and stage settings used
in John W. Vogel's Big City Minstrels,
which comes to the Majestic, Thursday,
Oct. 25th, is said to be the most elabor
ate and expensive ever used for a sinr
lar purpose: the setting is called the
Oriental Palace, a befitting title*, tie
cause of the appropriate costume?. and
the nnmerous and powerful calcium
and electrical effects used thereon. This
is the only setting of the kind in use by
a minstrel organization as the cost of
same prohibits the average manager
from investing the amount of capital
required
