Savages arc supposed to have keener senses , especially a keener sense of sight , than civilized races. The author of "Idle Days In Patagonia" docs not accept this theory. lie believes that savages have no keener senses , but that they pay closer attention to wha comes within tha range of their pcrcop tlon. As an Instance of quick response to an impression he tells the following story : On March 12 , 1801 , a company of hunters were camping beside a grove of willows in Patagonia. About U o'clock that evening , while they wen seated round the lire roasting their os trlch meat , Sosa suddenly sprang to his feet and held his open hand high above his head for some moments. "There Is not n breath of wind blow ing , " Sic exclaimed , "yet the leaves o the trees are trembling. What can thl portend ? " The others stared nt the trees , bu could see no motion , and they began to laugh at Ulm. Presently he sat dowi again , remarking that the trembling had ceased , but during the rest of the evening he was very much disturbed li his mind. lie remarked repeatedly tha such a thing had never happened In hi experience before , for , he said , he couh feel a breath of wind before the leave felt it. and there had been no wind. II feared that It was n warning of som disaster about to overtake their party. The disaster was not for them. On that evening occurred the earthquak which destroyed the distant city o Mendoza and crushed 111,000 people to death beneath the ruins. That the sub terranean wave extended east to tli Plata and southward Into Patagonli was afterward known , for in the cltle of Rosario nnd Buenos Ayres clock stopped , and a slight shock was als experienced in the Carmen on the 111 Negro.

Visitors Mixed In the Frivolity Until Midnight Morning Trains Took Many Away The Stanton Crowd Were Celebrating * In the merriest celebration of thorn all , and with more people lilting the streets of Norfolk than at any time irovlous during the three days , the eleventh annual tournament of the Nebraska Volunteer Flreiuon's asso ciation , after three days of the most successful mooting over held , euiii'J x > a close In Norfolk last night. This nornlng hundreds of the visitors took rains for their homos throughout No- > rasku , concessionaires pulled down heir booths , tnldwuy people rolled up the canvas and the KlreolH , Illtorod with bits of confetti looked compnnt- Ivoly bare and silent nnd llfelosK. It was a Jovial bit of merry making hat took the time of Norfolk's guoHtu ust night. The official end o ! the migrant was the parade of ito.its ; iven by the Hoyal Tlgor club. OtlitM1- wise It wan one grand , Jolly reluhra tlon by vIsltorH of the toiirnoy , who wore fooling happy , and a nlKht of umiHomont to others. At 7 o'clock the festive spirit took control , and it reigned miprenio until .he wee small hotirs of this inornltm The Stanton crowd , who had wn nearly everything during tin1 alter- noon's races , Including the Ktato championship hose race , wore Joylul ! o a degree and made themselves mown. Upon the back of a borrowed iiurro they hauled their hero. Al Marks , about the streets , cheering wildly. They wq.nt everywhere , ihrough the crowds , Into the midv , ay ind got more attention than the rest of the shows put together. Finally , at the corner of Norfolk ai'onuo and Fourth street , Bob Apploby ol Stanton - ton , stood up on the burro's back and began to speak. Bob Applcby Speaks. In a shouting voice the Stanton man called out to the crowd. Tin midway spielers started to yell louder than ever , atemptlng to diowu the voice of Bob. But there was no drowning , and finally the side show I.oople had to quit the game. "There may be some people bore. " said the man on the mule , "who lm\c never hoard of a town called Stan- ton. " ( Hero the mule kicked at ! tly nnd Bob male a sweeping gesture in compliance. The crowd cliccio.l en thusiastically ) . There may bo some people here , " said Deb , "who have never heard of a man named Marks. ( Cheers ) . But If you will look over the records of the Nebraska Volunteer Firemen s association , you will find them both ! ( Prolonged cheers ) . And to those who haven t heard about it ( the mule stamped and Bob's frame jerked forward ) . I wan * to say that there Is twelve miles east of Norfolk a llttlo town of 1200 people spelled S-t-a-n-t-o-n ! ( Great applause ) . Three years ago they formed a running team. Al Marks did It. And If you want to know what about them now , ask Fremont , York , Kearney , Seward or any other team In class "A. " Just at this point the mule's head ducked and Bob was dropped , upon his feet , to the ground and the streets rang with applause. Royal Tiger Parade. As a special feature of the last night , the Royal Tiger club , an organ isation formed especially for this tournament , gave a parade of floats , bearing the queen of the tourney , the lady of Klofron and Hoyal Tiger the First , with tholr uttcn "nuts.

Her attendants wore Miss Kate Glass and Miss Bessie Wiley , of York. The llo'at of the Storm King was second. This carried a large oil painting and the mechanical effects wore good in the way of lighting. The third float was the one on which the eyes of Norfolk people were turned. This was the carriage of the Lady of Klofron , Miss Edith McClary , her maids of honor , Miss Mamie Ma- trau and Miss Fannie Norton , and ten little maids. They rode in a Horal j i i lloat , a creation of beauty , with a pretty harmony of colors.
