LUCKY ACCIDENT FOR MINER
What at First Seemed Adverse Stroke
of Fate Turned Out a Caprice
of Fortune.
Where hundreds of men are ‘‘pros-
pecting” one of them is liable, of
| course, to stumble upon a ledge that
| ing resumed his
“pans out” in paying gold or silver.
That lucky “find” gives birth to a
dozen stories about millionaires who
have become “rich beyond the dreams
of avarice” by some fortunate acci-
dent. The following story is such a
one.
A miner named Adams was pros-
pecting in a northwestern state. While
trudging along, one hot day, through
a gulch, where the sun had a good
chance at his back, he suddenly
smelled smoke. He glanced quickly
in every direction to ascertain the
origin of the smoke, but seeing noth-
journey. A mo-
| ment later the smell returned strong-
er than ever. A light wreath of va.
por curled about his ears and gave
him to understand that his haversack
was on fire, Like all miners, he car-
riled a large lens for the purpose of
examining the specimens of the sand
| in his pan and the truth flashed upon
| him. For want of room he had hung
| the glass on the outside and the rays
| death of Christ, but,
| of the sun had been concentrated on
his haversack, which was thus set on
fire. As among its contents were 12
or 16 pounds of powder he lost no
| time in dropping the burden.
The haversack fell between two
huge stones, out of sight. Adams
reached a safe distance and watched
| the smoke rising from his worldly pos- |
sessions, Suddenly there was a deaf |
ening report. The ground trembled |
and Adams dodged behind a huge
stone. Rising, he went to the spot|
| to gather up what he could find, when |
| his eyes almost started out of his |
head at seeing the quartz that had |
| been blown up fairly glittering with!
gold. His powder had done better on
its own account than it had ever done |
| on his, and had literally blown open
| a gold mine for his benefit.
He was |

Many “Holy Lands.”
Christians use the term Holy |
Land to designate Palestine, as being
the scene of the birth, ministry and |
interestingly
enough, other religious sects employ
| the same term for places sacred to
them from association. Thus the Mo-
hammedans speak of Mecca as the
Holy Land, it being the birthplace of
Mohammed. The Chinese Buddhists
i call India the Holy Land, because the
founder of their religion was born |
| there, while the Greeks bestow this
| same title on Elis, where was situated |
| the temple of Olympian Zeus.

He Had Nothing on Sandy.
A Scotch gamekeeper who had been
left in charge of an estate was being
questioned by an English visitor. “Are
there many deer on the place?’ “Hun-
dreds, sir.” “Many hares?” “Thou-
sands, sir.” “Well, now, are there
many gorillas?” asked the English-
man sarcastically. For a moment the |
gamekeper hesitated, then he replied: |
“Weel, sir, they — they come like |
yersel’, just nco and then.” |

An Unsung Hero.
They have told you for years of the
“brave engineers’
Who pilot the trains te the station;
And they've caroled to you of the "over.
all blue,”
The badge of a worthy vocation,
Now I'm full of praise for the engineers’
ways,
And to glorify them none is quicker,
Yet let me be heard as I venture a word
For the man at the telegraph ticker.
Clickety-olick! Clckety-click!
Hear how the Instruments chatter and
dicker
Daytime and might, swifter than light,
Orders for traine from the man at the
ticker
The engineer's brain is concerned with
one train,
Dispatchers must think about many,
And to handle the lot with the Morse
dash-and-dot
Weeds a head that is equal to any.
So the engineer smiles as he reels off
the miles
With his train orders fresh as he takes
‘em;
But the hero to me is the man at the key,
The nervy dispatcher who makes ‘em.
Clickety-click! Clickety-click!
There goes the Limited—flash and a
flicker—
One little hitch—train in the ditch!
Nice ticklish task to be man at the ticker
When the fl I's running high and the
tr 1 ird’'s awry,
And the schedule yusted to flinders
He must *“ the ne clear’ for the
trair far and near,
No matter what «¢ cle hinders!
Till the t is straight he is “Boss,”
he is Fate,
There is 1 1e to iestion or bicker,
Whether four tracks or one, all the traf-
By ti telegraph ticker.
Clickety-click! ty-click!
“Send on the wre r at once {if not
quicker,
Trair mped the rails!” somebody
wails,
Action’s the word for the man at the
ticker!
It's a blg game of chess with no
“chances” or »
And the board is a busy dlvision,
For a move that is wrong might be death
to a throng
In a smash or a head-on collision.
Your life's in his hand when you travel
on land,
And as heroes are measured, his stature
Will loom up right near to the ‘‘brave
engineer,”
I drink to the merry dispatcher!
Clickety-click! Clickety-click!
Wife may be sick and the baby be sicker;
Still he must stick right at his “trick,”
Here's to the man at the telegraph ticker!
—-Berton Braley in the Twice-a-month
Popular Magazine.
CLEARS AWAY THE WEEDS
New Features in Lately Installed Ma-
chine That Make It Valuable
Part of Equipment.
Weed-burning devices for clearing
railroad tracks and embankments
from vegetation have been in use for
many years, but this weed burner em-
bodies new features that make fit
worthy of mention.
A five-gallon crude-oil container is
mounted with a compressed-air equip-
ment of 50 cubic feet capacity on an
old single truck, and trailing behind
the latter.is an apron from under

scorches the weeds, which die in
about twenty-four hours under sunny
conditions of weather. The dead
weeds are later remcved and burned.
A water tank is carried to enable the
operators to extinguish possible fires
in old dry ties. Good, sound ties will
not catch fire readily. The weed
burner, with a crew of two or three
men, can cover two miles an hour on
the level with ease. Tt is being used
with success on an electric railroad in
Ohio.—Popular Mechanics.

Shocked the Superintendent.
He entered the superintendent’s of-
fice in a kind of bashful, well-I-got-no-
pusiness-here sort of manner and
quietly asked the busy man if the su-
perintendent was in.
“I am he,” replied that official with-
out raiging his eyes from the desk—
“what do you want?”
“One of your trains killed my dog
a few days ago and I thought I would
stop in and—"
“Well, he had no business on our
tracks; you should have kept him
tied.”
“Yes, I know,” meekly responded
the caller, “but I didn’t, and he got on
the track and was killed, and I
thought you ought to—"
“But we wont! We don’t pay for
killing dogs on this road.”
“Who said anything about pay?” re-
| piled the ex-dog owner. “I'd been
trying for a month to get some one
| to drown that measly cur, and as the
railroad has killed him for me, I
thought you ought to be paid for the
job Here's two dollars.”—-Railroad

An Historic Place.
In East Donegal township, near
Kraybill's Old Mennonite church,
and about a mile south of the old
historic Donegal church, there is a
very historic place
Many years ago there was a large
Indian village here, The land was
at one time owned by John Kraybill
and later by his son, Henry Kraybill
who erected the farm buildings.
Over fort) vears ago it was pur-
chased by Daniel 8, Helisey, now
residing at Florin, who is now in his
seventy-seventh vear, and only re-
cently decided to dispose of it On
this farm ig an excellent spring of
pure water, where it is said many a
red man quenched his thirst, The
farm buildings now stand on the
very spot where the Indians had
their wigwams Quite frequently
Indian relics have been found on

PHRASES ON HEEL AND TOE
Twe Words Siem to Have Lent Them
selves to innumerable Coined
Expressions.
The tact that heels and toes are the
only words which signify both parts of
the body and parts of its clothing i8
doubtless responsible for the innumer-
able phrases in which both words play
an important part. In these unquestion-
ably the heel is the more frequent fac-
tor—generally in its corporal as dis-
tinguished from {ts sartorial signifi-
cance. It is amusing, for instance, to
recall the time when the “mashers” of
the period wore red heels to their
shoes, thereby, it will be remembered,
subjecting themselves to the flagella
tion from the pen of the spectator.
Not that red heels were a novelty in
Addison’s time, for they were in evi
dence in the reign of Elizabeth. In
France the height and color of the
heel were a fashion set by the grand
monarque.
Present day votaries of the dance
might not inconceivably laugh the sug-
gestion to scorn, but, in other respects
nd with due modifications, the de-
geription does not seem unrecogniz-
ably archalc. “Out at heels” has long
been 2 proverbial phrase; Falstaff, who
novadays would possibly have de-
clared he was “stoney broke,” tells
Pistol he is almost “out at heels.”
We have—to take to one’s heels, to
kick one's heels to show a pair of
heels, to turn on one’s heels, to grind
under heel, to cool one’s heels, heels
over head, the iron heel. And that
we are most lofty runaways—a Kkin-
dred expression to our ‘showing a
clean pair of heels,” and “taking to
one’s heels.” And quotations might
be multiplied. Nor must the familiar
“two for his heels” be forgotten, the
vulgarity of which alienated the gen
teel mind of immortal Mrs, Battle
from cribbage.
The Duliness of Genius,
In my last I mentioned my having
spent an evening with a society of
authors who seemed to be jealous and
afraid of one another. My uncle was
not at all surprised to hear me say
that I was disappointed in their cone
versation. “A man may be very en-
tertaining and instructive on paper,”
said he, “and exceedingly dull in com-
mon discourse. I have observed that
those who shine most in private com-
pany are but secondary stars in the
constellation of genius. A small stock
of ideas is more easily managed and
sooner displayed than a great quantity
crowded together, There is very sel
dom anything extraordinary in the ap
pearance and address of a good writ.
er; whereas a dull author generally
distinguishes himself by some oddity
of extravagance. For this reason 1

be very diverting.”—By Tobias Smol-
lett to Sir Watkin Phillips of Jesus
college, Oxon.
Their Preference.
“Now, boys,” said the teacher, “1
need not tell you anything further of
the duty of cultivating a kindly dis-
position, but I will tell you a little
story of two dogs. George had a nice
little dog that was as gentle as a
lamb. He would sit by George's side
quietly for an hour at a time. He
would not bark at passers-by, nor at
strange dogs, and would never bite
anybody or anything. Thomas’ dog,
on the contrary, was always fighting
other dogs, and would sometimes tear
them cruelly. He would also fly at the |
hens and cats in the neighborhood, |
and on several occasions had been
known to seize a cow by the nostrils |
and throw her. He barked at all the
strange men that came along, and |
would bite them urisss somebody in-
terfered. Now, boys, which is the dog
| you would like to own, George's or
Thomas's?” instantly c¢Znie the an-
