"Is there such a thing as the habit of vlotoryl" he asked. He answered hit Own question by affirming that there was. "Caesar's Tenth legion had It. and everyone knewr they hod It, and the fact that everyone know It and was afraid of them made it easier for them -to keep It No, they were not larger nor stronger men than the men they mot in battle.

Seward Farmer Saves Train from Wreck by Tornado With his cattle all let out into the wheat fields, tilling themselves to the bloating point, because the tornado ripped his fences asunder, Frank Tipton, Jr., farmer, living three miles east, of Sew ard, did not fall to remcmbor that human lives aro more Important than those ot cattle. After chasing a stubborn white and black spotted cow for five minutes, ho was led by the obBtlndte brute to the edge 'of the field near tho curve In the Burlington railroad where the road comes through a deep cut Ho stopped short In the cut wero a dozen telegraph poles lying In contusion across tho rails. Tipton consulted his watch. Nearly 7 o'clook. In a few minutes It would bo time for Burlington passenger No. 21 to come round the bend. Tipton leaped the fence and ran up the track some fifty yards In the dlroctlon from which the train was to come. Ho had gono not many hasty paces when the train hove in sight Black smoke was snorting from the smoke stack and Tipton knew tho fireman was mak ing it climb. Tipton had no red flag; He had no official signal ot any kind nnd ha did not know what tho regular stop signal of tho railroad Is, for he is an industrious farmer and not a ra)lroad man. Common sense dtctnted. He slipped out of his gray Jersey. The next instant the Jersey wai? making great gray circles about his head and was waving furiously up and down. The train lurched on and on Tipton held his ground until the engine was nlmost upon him, when he had to glvo ground. The train shot by him, but already tho steam was hissing, the brakes were shrieking; -and Tipton knew that tho engineer had got the sig nal. When the engine came to the telegraph poles it had slowed down, so that no damage was done. Slowly It rolled the clumsy poles into the yellow clay beside the track and then camo to a dead atop. Tipton came trailing up behind the train. The brakeman got off. ''I didn't know whether It was right to stop you or not," TlPton explained. 'It was exactly the thing to do," the brnkeman assured him. There were some 300 passengers on the train. Tipton pulled on his Jersey. The engine moVcd ahead cautiously. Tipton gath ered up his hammer, fished a Tew staples out of the pocket ot his blue overalls, and started for the barn to repair his fences so that he might keep the stubborn spot ted cow In when he, should : finally get her home. .'
