Victories of Peace.
The rank and importance of what
they proved it is difficult to make lay
sen understand especially those in
cooler latitudes who never know the
terror of yellow fever. 'Men of 'science
rank it with Jenner's discovery of vac
cination, and " Listens invention of
aseptic surgery. But the fate, of these
surgeons is perfectly intelligible. Maj.
Seed, broken in health, returned to
the United States, and lived long
enough to get an honorary degree
from Harvard. A popular subscrip
tion is now being taken to bu-ild a
monument to him. Dr. Lazear was a
victim to his own ' devotion to the
work; he died from yellow fever after
permitting infected mosquitoes to bite
him. Dr. Carrol, more fortunate, re
covered from the disease following ex- j
perimental inoculation, but he never
knew a well day after he plunged his
hand into the fatal jar. Maj. Reed's
widow has a pension of $125 a month
from the United States; Dr. Lazear's
receives $17. There is no person, de
clares Collier's, who is not touched
seat; to the depths of his capacity for
admiration by the thought of these
men. Their monuments should be set
up for inspiration In every school
throughout the land where youths are
taught to become physicians.
Farthest North Race.
It looks like another "farthest north"
race. Dr. Frederick A. Cook of Brook
lyn.' who is an arctic explorer of some
note, having been surgeon of one of
Commander Peary's expeditions and
of a Belgian exploring party ten years
ago, is now well up to the pole. His
party, when last heard of, was en
camped at a point 650 miles south of
the pole, and considerably farther
north than was reached by the late
Peary expedition, although Peary him
self penetrated to within about 200
allies of the object of the search. It is
Dr. Cook's intention to dash to the
Borth pole when the conditions are fa
vorable, and his wife, who has just re
tained from the polar region, is confi
dent he will sacceed. This appears
like trying to steal a march on Peary,
who was making elaborate prepara
tions for another trip northward, but
was compelled to abandon the project
for the present because bis ship could
not be put in readiness.
Reports come from London every
few months that SL Paul's cathedral
is settling and that its walls are
cracking. A committee of architects
appointed to inquire into the 'condition
of the building when the county coun
cil planned to 'run -a sewer within 45
feet of the southwest tower has re
ported and, although repairs are need
ed at once, the structure is in no im
mediate danger of collapse. It need 3
to be carefully watched, however. The
foundations do not rest on bed-rock,
and as the water has been drained
from the subsoil, the earth has set
tled, and allowed the walls to settle
also. One engineer has suggested that
holes be bored In the ground about
the building and that they be kept
filled with water, so that the earth
may be restored to its natural condi
tion at the time when the whole dis
trict roundabout was not sealed up
' with pavements or covered with build
ings, and the rain could percolate
through the soil.
A remarkably interesting engineer
fng operation has lately been in prog
ress in Brooklyn, N. Y. A large brick
theater building, having walls 90 feet
high, has been lifted from its founda
tions, turned squarely round and
moved 300 feet to a new site. To turn
it, the exact center of the floor was
ascertained, and with this as a hub
series of small steel rollers were -laid
on a prepared platform', and then the
building, resting on steel beams, was
allowed to settle down on the rollers.
With jack-screws on two diagonally
opposite corners pushing in opposite
directions, the structure was then
turned as of on a pivot The moving
of brick buildings is common, but this
is said to be the largest and heaviest
structure that has ever been put bod
ily on new foundations.
A New Jersey woman recently

of an incident, go to the 'Carnegie
museum. The incident was the death
of the goat - - " . ir
Mr Byers and W. R:' Scalfe J re
turned "from a hunting trip pr 'sev
eral weeks in Canada. The goat.
a fine specimen, weighing more than
250 pounds, was captured in the
Stickline river, on the border line
between Alaska and British Columbia.
It is supposed to have been chased
into the water by a bear.
The death of the goat was directly
due to starvation.- He refused to
eat a bite while in captivity. On only
two or three occasions did the goat
drink any water, either. It was ex
pected, however, that after his being'
taken from the box in which he was
shipped to Pittsburg he would begin
eating. Instead, he shied at food
more than ever.
Mr. Byers says the goat-has a fine
pair of horns and is a magnificent
specimen in every way. When he
reaches the museum and is mounted
proudly on a rocky pedestal, it is ex
pected he will attract almost as much
attention as if he were alive in a zoo.
CELESTIAL CAL.MITY AT YALE.

With the party t was Poason Carlos
Chu of Shanghai, a scion of the royal
family of China, whose father is high
in the government life of the coun
try. Biding to the quarries In a freight
car, the students spent several hours,
starting back through the marshes for
a short cat to the railroad. Ponson is

fainted at the sight of the marsh and
looked at his new fall costume. Ac

stepped into an unseen hole to his
waist and the royal lad from China
was thrown head foremost,, his head
going deep into the mud 'and his
princely legs sticking up in the air.
He was rescued, but his face had
changed from the Mongolian yellow to

OWL FIGHTS LIKE EAGLE.
Huntsman Interferes with Its Pursuit
of a Squirrel.
Allentown, Pa. Adam Bohlinger, of
Upper Milford, the other morning
started for the Coleraine mountains
on a squirrel hunt He started early,
so as to arrive just before sunrise,
when the squirrels begin to feed.
. Just as dawn was breaking Mr. Boh
linger saw a monster owl flitting
through the woods, and the next in
stant it darted for a squirrel.
It missed and tried again. Then
Bohlinger fired. It dropped and Boh
linger tried to pick it up and immedi
ately discovered that instead of kill
ing it he had only succeeded in break
ing its wing.
The wounded owl fastened its talons
in Bohlinger's hand and put up so des
perate a fight that before the hunter
succeeded in killing it his face and
hands were torn and scratched in a
frightful manner and he was totally
exhausted.
A physician dressed and cauterized
his wounds.
The owl is one of the biggest seen
along these mountains in many years,
and Bohlinger will have it stuffed and
mounted.
ROOSTER MIGHTY WEAPON.
Wielded by Owner, Speedily Puts
Hold-Up Men to Flight.
Cincinnati. Avaunt blackjacks,
smoke wagons and loaded canes. That
most useful array of barnyard fowls,
the rooster, has mounted the pedestal
of superiority and today all the
members of Cincinnati's chicken popu
lation save one are holding-thaicheads
a little higher. It happened while
Warren Edwards, a conductor, was on
his way home. In his right hand he
held by the legs a plump rooster that
was destined to grace the Edwards'
dinner table.
"Halt! Hands up!" came a brusque
command, and out of the darkness
two highwaymen stepped and confront
ed Edwards.
Instead of obeying the command,
Edwards swung the rooster into the
faces of the robbers and put them to
flight. It was fatal to the chanticleer.

Woman Builds a House.
ERECTS NINE-ROOM STRUCTURE
IN KANSAS CITY UNAIDED.
Plans Also of Her Own Making Hired
a Four-Dollar-a-Day Carpenter, But
Found That He Botched
Things.
Kansas City, Mo. Miss Lillie M.
Johnson has completed and moved
Into a nine-room house at No. 2848
North Eighth street, and she says with
pride: "I built it all myself, except
a little bit of botched work done by a
four-dollar-a-day carpenter."
Miss Johnson began work on her
house in the fall following the flood
in the Kaw valley in 1906. She was a
Salvation. Army worker in Armourdale
at the time, of the flood.. .She lost
everything except seven dollars. She
went to a real estate firm and arrang
ed to buy on payments the 100 feet of
ground on which her house stands.
The first payment was $20, but sh
was allowed to take the ground on the
promise , that she would pay the
amount in 30 days. She kept her
promise.
After the ground was secured she
started 'canvassing 'for a medicated
soap Ann and soon made enough to
fence the ground. The cold weather
forced her to seek indoor work. Then
she began wrapping candles in a fac
tory. In May, 1904,' Miss Johnson built a
two-room box-house, doing all the
work herself and getting the lumber
on- easy payments. After moving into
her new home she received two wom
en as boarders. She was able, by the
first of July, to buy a cow. She sold
the milk, and with her earnings bought
an incubator.
Then she reared 50 chickens, hop
ing to make a payment on the ground.
She penned up the "springs" to fatten
them, but a thief stole them. Then
Miss Johnson found herself facing a
payment without the necessary money.
However, her resources were not ex
hausted. She began taking in wash
ing. Through these various means
she paid for the lot
But Miss Johnson was not satisfied.
She must enlarge her house. She
graded her lot with a spade and
wheelbarrow, laid the foundation, put
up the frames, roofed, boxed and
weather-boarded the addition.
But she was forced to hire a car
penter to make her window frames.
She has finished the entire interior of
the house, laying the floors, lathing,
plastering and papering thte walls.
The plans of the house were made by

lands in the eastern portion of the

COLLECTS BUTTONS 40 YEARS.
Aged Man Who Has Gathered 80,000
Specimens Dies.
Reading Cal. John C. Hepler, super
intendent of Charles Evans' cemetery,
died here, aged 78 years. While, a well
known and highly respected citizen,
his chief claim to fame rested on the
fact that he was one of the best known
button collectors in the world. Hep
ler's collection numbers 80,000 but
tons; and there are no duplicates. He
began this peculiar fad over 40 years
ago.
The collection starts with the cheap,
humble shirt button, next the trousers
button and so on to the expensive but
tons on women's dresses, and finally,
through a long list, to the military but
tons of all the nations of the world.
Mr. Hepler knew the history of
many of the gems in his collection.
Some were secured through friends
visiting or living abroad, and among
his collection are buttons once worn
by royalty.
The 80.000 buttons are all classified
and systematically arranged. In de
sign or color they are all different and
Mr. Hepler loved to tell how the dif

$2,849,000,000.
If the government should take these
lands from the persons who .own them
at the rate of six dollars an acre, im
prove them at a cost of $15 an acre
and sell them again for $60 an acre
the prtflt would pay off the national
debt twice over and leave enough to
run the government for.a year without
the expenditure of a cent of the rev

'Lemon Sauce. (I) When used for
boiled fowls: Peel and seed a large
lemon and cut in small slices. Chop
fowl's liver; which has been boiled,
very fine; add it to the lemon, with
half a pint of melted butter. Serve in
a sauceboat. (2) When used for fish:
Put a quarter of a pound of butter in
a saucepan; add the juice of a large
lemon, with pepper and salt to taste.
As it heats, beat it constantly so that
it may become thick and hot without
boiling. When cooked sufficiently, re
move and add the beaten yolks of two
eggs. (3) A sweet lemon sauce for
puddings: Boil a pint of water and
a'- coffee-cupful of granulated sugar to
gether- for five minutes; -then add
three heaping teaspobnfuls of corn
starch that have previously ' been
mixed with cold waler. Finally, add
both the grated rind and the juice 'of
a large lemon and a tablespoonful of
butter. Cook until the" butter has
melted; then serve. r r
Lemon Butter Sauce. Put two table
spoonfuls of powdered sugar and half
that quantity of corn-starch in a sauce
pan; grate the rind of one lemon over
the .top; then add' half a pint of boil
ing water, 'the juice.of the lemon and
a piece of butter about the sixe of a
hickory nut When these Ingredients
have blended thoroughly, add, little by
little, the beaten yolk of two eggs,
being careful to stir the mixture con
stantly during the minute or two that
it must remain over the fire. Other
wise the eggs will be certain-to curdle.
Lentil Sauce. Soak the lentils in
cold water about six hours. Drain
them and put them in a saucepan with
some bones of ham. or a quarter of a
pound of salt pork; cover with water,
and season with bayleaf, thyme, pars
ley, a chopped carrot and two oafoas
in which some cloves have previously
been thrust When cooked suOcfently
remove the pork and discard the herbs
and onions, but mash the carrot
through a colander with the liquid. .If
too thick, add the necessary quantity
of good broth to thin; season with
pepper, salt and butter, and, when the
butter hat melted, serve.
Winning a Wager.
In Glamorgan, Wales, the owner of
a large, fine horse, made a wager that
the animal would .follow .him up three
flights of stairs in a hotel. The stairs
were very steep and no one but the
owner of the horse thought he would
mount them. He did, however, and
won the wager by reaching the third
story. Then things changed.
The horse refused to descend. He
was whipped and coaxed, but not a
foot would he move.
He was left there for three days in
hopes that he would change his mind,
but as he still refused to do so they
had to enlarge one of the windows
and get 30 men together to lower him
down with ropes and pulleys. The
owner won $1 on his wager, but It
cost him $10 to get his horse down.
Cold Potatoes Scalloped.
Cut cold boiled or baked potatoes
into dice until you have a large cup

ful of rich drawn butter, into which
you have beaten the yolks of two eggs
and a heaping tablespoonful of finejy
grated cheese.
Put a layer of potato dice in the bot
