Courage is believed to be a very ! nec-
essary quality for the soldier , but a
writer in Harper's Magazine tells of
a private who ran at the first shot , anil
declared himself to be braver than
those who faced the battle.
Pat was unmercifully laughed at for
his cowardice by the whole regiment ,
but he was equal to the occasion.
"Run , is it ? " he repeated , scornfully.
"Faitn , an' I didn't , narth r. I just
observed the .gineral's express orders.
He told us , 'Strike for home and yer
counthry , ' and I sthruck for home.

Scratched So Site Could Not Sleep.
"I write to tell you how thankful I
am for the wonderful Cuticura Rem
! ; edies. My little niece had eczema for
five years and when her mother died
I took care of the child. It was all
over her face and body , also on her
I head. She scratched so that she could
not sleep nights. I used Cuticura
Soap to wash her with and then ap
plied Cuticura Ointment. I did not
use quite half the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment , together with Cuticura Re-
solvent , when you could see a change
and they cured her nicely. Now she
is eleven years old and has never been
bothered with eczema since. My
friends think . it Is just great the way
the baby was cured by Cuticura. I
send you a picture taken when she was
about eighteen months old.
"She was taken with the eczema
when two years old. She was covered
/ with big sores and her mother had all
the best doctors and tried all kinds of
salves and medicines without effect
until we used Cuticura Remedies. Mrs.
H. Kiernan , 663 Quincy St. , Brooklyn
N. Y. , Sept. 27 , 1909. "
Even as late as the earlier years of
the eighteenth century mince pie as
an adjunct of the Christmas feast was
. forbidden to the English clergyman.
A Generous Gift.
Professor Munyon has Just issued a
most beautiful , useful and complete al-
manac. It contains not only all the sci-
entific information concerning the
moon's phases , in all the latitudes , but
has illustrated articles on how to read
L character by phrenology , palmistry and
birth month. It also tells all about card
\ reading , birth stones and their mean-
- \ ing , and gives the interpretation of
dreams. It teaches beauty culture , man-
icuring , gives weights and measure
and antidotes for poison. In fact , it is
a Magazine Almanac that not only
gives valuable information , but will af-
ford much amusement for every mem-
ber of the family , especially ior ! parties
and evening entertainments. Farmers
and people in the rural districts will
find this Almanac almost invaluable.
It will be sent to anyone absolutely
free on application to the Munyon

ter Cochery , after a consultation in
Paris , France , estimated that the flood
losses would exceed $200,000,000. Paris
has been divided into five sections ,
each in charge of a military command-
er , who will control the relief and res
cue work. The Seine continued to riss
and the situation was growing worse
hourly. .
A large portion of France is under
water and chaos Is the order through
out the flooded districts. Fears of out
breaks of epidemics are entertained ,
and the situation is looked upon as
one of the greatest gravity. 'While the
loss of life thus far has been small
the property losses are- colossal. An
estimate of the damage , owing to the
widespread confusion , is impossible.
The calamity is national.
There are reports of Improvement in I
a few provinces , but others are cut off ,
from communication. Many towns and
villages are : completely isolated.
The floods throughout the country
continue their devastation , but Paris
and vicinity seem to be the worst hit
of all the affected districts. The city
faces a complete tie-up and damage
grows each hour. The Seine rose ,
three-quarters of an Inch in hour.

TO LOAN GERMANY VAST SUM.
American Capitalists to Furnish
120,000OOO to Nation.
Germany's bid for American good
will appeared the other day in the
opinion of Washington officials , when
word was received that Germany asks
for a loan of 120000000. The loan ,
it seems , was to be announced in the
first week of this year , but was held
up when It became known to the Ger-
man government that complications
In the far East were to ensue. There
Is a disposition in Washington to be-
lieve that the Morgan syndicate abroad
will take a major share of this loan ,
placed on the market at 102.
I
i
The capital will be increased from I
$30,000,000 to $150,000,000.
At a meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Anaconda Copper Mining
Company It was decided to call a spe-
cial meeting of stockholders of the
company In Anaconda on March 23
for the purpose of considering the
proposition of Increasing the capital
stock of the company from the pres-
ent authorized 'issue of 1,200,000 shares ,
having a par value of $25 a share to
6,000,000 shares of the same par value
per share , for the purpose of acquir
ing the property of other companies
located In th" Butte district.

Officer Promoted for Meritorious
Conduct In Two Wars.
Rear Admiral Nehemiah Mayo Dyer ,
honored for distinguished service in
two wars , died at his home in Melrose
Mass. , following an attack of acute
indigestion. He was rapidly promoted

Civil War , and in the Spanish-Amer-
ican War was second only to AdmlraJ
Dewey in eminent service at the bat-
tle of Manila Bay , for which he was
advanced seven numbers in rank. He
was 71 years old. The trip of the vet-
eran naval fighter to Washington was
for the purpose of learning the result
of a suit which he had brought against
the city of Melrose to recover taxes
.paid under protest on the admiral's
bank account. The suit was decided
against him.

Prince Henry of Germany is super-
Intending the preparation of an arctic
exploring party which In the spring
will make an attempt to reach the
north pole In a dirigible balloon.
It Is a noteworthy fact that owing to
the American- superiority In the tan-
ning of leather , a large amount of
hide-stock Is sent to the United States
for that purpose and then returned to
Germany ready for use In the shoe fac-
tories.
An agitation has been started In
Sweden for the reduction if not the
abolition of the duties on wheat and
rye. The tremendously high cost of
bread In that country has had much to
do with the growth of the industrial
unrest.
Russia Intends to try protection for
the building up of her infant indus-

POISON FOUND ) IN SWOPE CASE.
.
Cipher Telegram. : Disclose : : ; Ucult of
Chicago's Experts' Analysis.
Clearly indicating that j.-okon } had
been found In the stomachs of Col-
onel Thomas H. Swope multimillion
aire f philanthropist of Kansas City ,
and his nephew , Chrisman Swope , and
foreshadowing arrests to be made Im
mediately , a cipher message was sent
the other day : to Attorney John G.
. .
Paxton at Kansas City by Dr. Lud- -
wig Hektoen immediately upon the
completion of the exhaustive analysis
made by Dr. Hektoen Dr. Walter
Haines and Dr. Victor C. Vaughan , of
Chicago.
Mr. Paxton , executor of the Swope
estate , agreed with Dr. Hektoen upon
a code that was to be used in sending
messages in the event evidence of
murder was found in the stomachs of
Colonel Swope and his nephew. The
code word to be used in the event of
the discovery of poison was "Positive/ '
and that was the word put on the
wire. The precaution was taken to
prevent a "leak" and a warning to the
suspects.
The finding of poison was essential
to the making of specific charges.
This was demanded by the prosecuting
attorney. The alleged inoculation of
eight members of the Swope family
with typhoid will be introduced at the
trial as circumstantial or corrobora
tive evidence to show the existence of
a plot to exterminate the remaining
heirs to the Swope millions.
20TH CENTURY WRECK KILLS.
Engine of EastBoundTrain Turns
Somersault at St. Johnsville , N. 'Y.
Two men were killed when the en
gine on the New York Central Twen-
lieth : Century Limited , eastbound , from
Chicago , turned completely over about
a quarter of a mile west of St. Johns-
ville N. Y. It slid 300 feet before It
stopped. Under the engine pits Fire-
man Melvin : : J. Handville of Syracuse
was crushed beyond recognition. The
I
engineer , John Scanlon , of Fort Hun
ter , attempted to leap when the engine
left the rails but he was caught be-
tween the engine and tender and
crushed. None of the coaches left the
track , though the trucks of several of
them were derailed. Most of the pas-
lengers were thrown from their berths.
The supposition is that a signal cau-
tioning Engineer Scanlon to slow down
was not seen by him in time to bring
his train under full control and when
the locomotive struck the crossover the
ponderous machine bounded into the
air , turned upon its side , and then as
it struck one of the rails rolled upon
its back and plowed ahead through the
rails , ties and ballast at least 300 feet.
