E MEN SHOT ' IN RIOTi TWO KILLED

Eight Hundred Miners Cre- . ate a Big Riot Near Gillispie, Ills. (National Kewa Association) GILLISPIE, 111., May 10. Nine .men were shot In a riot among 800 miners at Benld, a coal mining town, two miles south of here.-For some time a strike has been on. Three hundred strikers appeared at the mine this morning and wanted to go to work. The report of the disaffection quickly caused great excitement among the strikers, who flocked to the mine. In a few minutes angry words had changed to blows and shots and a full fledged riot was on. Nine men fell and two of-them are said to he dying and the rest are in a serious condition.

EAST INDIAN RUNNERS. ' Kahars Who Can Regularly Make a Hundred Miles a PY' Ordinary Marathon races .seem rather, insignificant compared with the regular performances of a certain east Indian caste. These Kahars, also known as Jbmwarb, lire In the Pun- ; Jab, where for centuries they have acted as runners, fishermen and water fowl catchers. The men are trained runners and are said to be able to go a hundred miles a day -without resting. According to Bally's Magazine, there is a well authenticated instance that Tika Ram, the son of Lalu Rum, carried dispatches 30O miles in three days from Mean-Mir to Meerut. iThe point discussed, however, is whether the normal exertions of the Kahar post runners and the similar exertions of jlnrlklsha men shortened their lives, and It appears that the Kahars, trained from childhood to be distance runners, live to be old men. They nre not only able to withstand the strain of running great, distances under a heavy load, but thrive under it. The jinrikinba man, too, notwithstanding Ms Irregular diet, excessive use of liquor and exposure to the elements, lives to a reasonable age. In Tokyo when a Census was taken of the jinrikisha men a few years ago there were found to be more than 1,300 who were over flfty-flve years of age.

Sailing la So Interesting. . The lady was reading a nautical novel. She struggled along bravely for a few minutes, but finally had to appeal to her husband. "Gerald," she said, "the author says that the boat was sailing 'wing and wing.' What, does that mean? I've been onJa yacht, but I never heard that before." . "That means," answered Gerald, rejoicing in the fact that he, too, had spent several hours on a sailing vessel "that means that the schooner had her malns'l out to port and her fores'l out to starboard, or vice versa." "Oh, I see!" cried the lady. It's just like a chicken a wing on each side. And now I "understand why they call those littl sails in the middle 'jibs.' It's short for 'giblets.' of course. Isn't sailing interesting?" Cleveland Plain Dealer.' ; f

, Ancient Architecture. Ilerr Knauth, the architect in charge of the Cathedral of Strassb'urg, has shown that the principles of construction followed by the great cathedral builders of former times are Identical with those used by the builders of the Egyptian pyramids and are -based on triangulation. The same -simple geometrical figure underlies all these constructions. More than , this, Ilerr Knauth traces the architectural principle In . the formation of crystals and J lays down this formula: "The laws of proportion in mediaeval architecture are ,the geometrical laws of crystallization."

LIFE BUOY AND OAR. Putting en the One and Supporting Yourself With the Other. Very few persons know how to get Into a life buoy, and, as In this uncertain world one never knows when one may need to make use of a buoy in real earnest, a little practice might prove of great value in an emergency. Now, when the buoy is thrown into the water the temptation is to try to lift It over one's head ad shoulders or to dive through it. This, however. Is impossible. The correct thing Is to grasp the two sides of the buoy with fingers of the hands uppermost, lower yourself under the buoy and come np through the center, then rest your arms upon the sides, and you will be comfortably supported as long as It is necessary. More often than otherwise, in case of accident, a life buoy Is not at hand. In such an event an oar may be used as a substitute. Now, there is some liltle art In saving oneself by this means, for nn . average sized scull is not buoyant enough to support a person if grasped as the first impulse would directThere is only one way In which the oar will support a human being. It must be ridden like a hobbyhorse. The haft is put between the legs and the blade allowed to project above the surface of the water in front of one. By this means the head Is kept well above the water. Pearson's Magazine

The Quest of Happiness Ponce De Leon sacrificed his lifein a vain search for the fountain of everlasting youth, which to him represented the greatest idea of happiness. Today, we are turning our faces from the fantastic dreams of the unattainable to a realization of an attainable happiness. And more and more of us are finding that something, which, in its effects at least, represents the fabled fountain. To have beautiful music in the home our constant companion to be able to ourselves produce it and to come to a complete understanding and realization of its beauties, retains the spirit of youth and brings us into old age with an ever-cheerful, youthful outlook on the life that flows past. In days gone by the privilege of playing the piano was reserved to the favored few who had the opportunity for years of study and practice. Today all this is changed THE STARR PLAYER PIANO responds like an old friend to all who love music and have the desire to produce it. Its presence in the home means that the most beautiful compositions in the realms of music may be heard, played either by a musician or by means of the music roll by one without even the rudiments of a musical education. Can you realize what it would mean to you to have a piano that you may sit down to and play just the kind of music you like best, with absolutely correct technique and all the delicacy of expression of the most talented musician? Some idea of what the possession of one of these instruments would mean to you may be gained by a visit to our warerooms, where you can not only see and hear it played, but play it yourself. You are invited to make your visit which involves no obligation on your part to buy. Among the STARR group of player pianos there are instruments to please every taste and to suit every income. The STARR line of player pianos are sold at lower prices than others of anywhere near their value because they are sold direct by their makers at one price. The Starr Piano Co.
