BIG CIRCUS CROWD VERY ORDERLY ONE

Police Had Little TroubleOne Baby Lost At the Circus Grounds. Seven arrests were made Saturday night for intoxication. Those fined in police court this morning were Henry Johnson, Jack Jester, Charles Winters, Rafe Almon, Leonard Armstrong, Chauncey Hamilton and B. Baddely. Each was fined $1 and costs. A man reported the loss of a pocket book containing $6 at the entrance to the Murray theatre Saturday night. Whether he lost it or it was stolen is not known by the police. The loss of a ladles' purse was reported, but this was later brought in and returned to the owner. A six year old girl was found at the circus grounds and brought to police headquarters. She had become lost from her parents who later came to headquarters and took her to her liome. The crowds coming into the city as the result of the circus were very easily handled und the police had little trouble. Although there was more drinking of intoxicating liquor than usual, only a few persons under the influence were seen. The entire police force was on duty all day and at night at the circus grounds. It is thought that there were very few pickpockets and crooks in the city Saturday. STRENGTH OF HUMAN BONES. Mora Powerful In Some Ways Than the Stanchest Oak. Human bones are really tremendously strong and possessed of marvelous resisting power. Indeed, the bones of the fairest, most delicate looking woman are stronger than the strongest oak. Of course a bone is hollow, and that Is one of the chief reasons it resists such extreme weights. For instance, a small bone which is no more than a square millimeter in diameter will bold in suspension without breaking some thirty-tlve pounds, while a stick of best oak of similar width will not bold more than twenty pounds. Indeed, the average bone of the average man Is stronger by one half than that of solid oak. The principle on which our bones are constructed, being made hollow and consequently stronger than if they were solid and heavier, is the same mechanics have followed the world over. Constructive engineers employ tubes instead of solid cylinders. In the case of animals thousands of years ago one reason of their bulky frame is attributed by scientists as due to the fact their bones were solid and added to their weight Chicago Tribune. AVIATION TAKES NERVE. And When That Is Lost the Aeronaut Should Fly No More lie who Hies constantly must look to lone personal risk, which may vary according to the characteristics of tho Individual. This is the danger a man may lucur by becoming u little careless while in the air. There is the possibility, in fact, that familiarity may breed not uctunl contempt, but temporary relaxation of vigilance, and piloting an aeroplane needs such Watchfulness, such minute precision, that any "staleness" on the part of the man at the wheel or lever repre-1 pents a peril that Is very real. j Tho pilot who flies a great deal nTirtiiM rum I rwl himself fnntJinf-Iv that ' there Is no room for error in the handling of aircraft. A loss of confidence not difficult to understand Is suffered by an air man ; Bomotimes after he has been the victim of a serious fall, and in similar circumstances a jockey, or, say, a racing motorist, may be robbed of nerve. When a pilot does lose judgment as the outcome of a bad mishap his wisest course Is to cease to fly. With b broken nerve he is a menace to himself and to others as well.

Strokes to Use and Methods to Follow to Acquire Speed. The general rule may be set down that no swimmer should attempt speeding and I mean in practice as well as in racing until he can cover a quarter of a mile with a good stroke. It matters not whether one aims at becoming an all around competitor or a specialist at the sprints, the same rule obtains. Once the stroke has been perfected, the chosen events may be taken up, but even then it is the best policy to alternate fast swimming with easy stretches, at moderate pace, under the watchful eye of the coach. It is always advisable to limit the number of time trials. There are but two strokes which can be recommended to the racing man for free style swimming, the crawl for dis tances not exceeding 220 yards and both f:he crawl and the trudgeon for longer journeys. Some question is still in the mind of many as to which is preferable for the latter events, but in the writer's opinion based upon the teachings of the past any set of movements which affords best results at the furlong will also prove best at the longer courses after the swimmer has accustomed his muscles to the action by constant practice. Outing Magazine. Almost Recognized. Dinah was a product of New Orleans, a big. plump "yaller gal" who could cook the finest dinners for miles around. One day a new butler appeared upon the scene, and Dinah's mistress noticed that she took a great interest in the man. At lust her mistress could stand her curiosity no longer and asked: "Dinah, do you know that new man?" Dinah took another long and scrutinizing look and then slowly and reminiscently replied: "Well, 1 dunuo. Miss Alice, but 1 think be was ma fust husband!" Everybody's Magazine. Toboga Island. Famed for its unfailing springs of pure, sparkling water,, the island of Toboga lies about ten miles from the city of Tana ma. in the Pacific. Here the mail steamers plying between Balboa and San Francisco lie by for their supply of fresh water, as do also the Fteamers that sail southward from Panama. The island is also famous for its splendid pineapples. THE rrn o o A A

ANNUAL REUNION The fifth Annual Reunion of the Kamp and Thomas families was held Sunday at Beallview Park. There were one hundred fifty in attendance and a bounteous dinner and supper were served. In the afternoon a musical program was enjoyed and officers were elected for the ensuing year. Letters of regret were read from relatives who for various reasons were unable to attend. The out-of-town people who came for this affair were: Mrs. Shaffer and son from West Virginia; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Kamp and sons from Friendsville, Maryland; Mr. and Mrs. Joe Homrighous and daughter, Thelma, and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Agar of Terre Haute, Ind.; Mrs. Wm. Klopp and son of Marion, Ohio; Mr. and Mrs. Walter Klopp and sons of Indianapolis; Mr. and Mrs. John Thomas, Connersville; Mr. and Mrs. Gus Thomas Chicago. Nicely Answered. George IV. became convinced by dint of long imagining and saying so that he had left the life guards at Waterloo. "Did I not, Arthur?" he said at a court dinner to the Duke of Wellington. Mflist men would have been embarrassed. Not so the Iron Duke. He simply answered. "I have often heard your majesty say so."

The Mysterious Dane Who ' Boarded His Vessel at Hamburg. The captain of a vessel which was bringing to America in the fall of 179C a mysterious passenger who had come aboard at Hamburg watched the latter so closely that at last the passenger said one day: "Sir, this is not the first occasion upon which I have observed the attentive scrutiny you bestow upon me. May I inquire the reason?" "Sir," responded the candid captain, "you took passage on my ship an a Dane. I don't believe you're anything of the kind." The passenger smiled. The smile was full of perspicacity and confidence and was followed with, "Pray, tell me, then, what you believe me to be?" At this question Captain Ewing i fidgeted, hesitated and finally blurted out: "Well, to be honest. I think you are a gambler. You've well nigh ruined yourself at home and are now coming to fleece the fools you'll find on shore." The young man's smile broadened. The next minute he turned grave again, lowered his voice and replied: "Captain Ewing, as you have studied me during this voyage, so I have studied you. I have come to the conclusion that you are a man to be trusted. I am Louis Philippe, duo d'Orleans, eldest son of that Louis Philippe d'Orleans who was slain by the guillotine on the Tth of November, almost threa years ago."

TO STARTWORK SOON On New Factory for K. D. Cabinet Company. The K. D. Cabinet Manufacturing company will start to construct a new

two-story structure, of concrete and! brick with a well-made basement soon. ; The building will be equipped with the best of modern machinery which will be run by individual electric motors. It is the plan of the directors to have the factory in operation by the first of the year at which time they plan to begin business with the full force of between fifty and sixty men. The company will manufacture a kitchen cabinet, patented, which can be taken apart and set up again in a very short time. It has special appliances for making the frame rigid. The stock holders are George Kemper and R. C. Russell of this city and William H. Turner and Wilbur Turner of Kokomo. Mr. Kemper will act as president and general manager. Mr. Russell as superintendent of the factory, and Mr. Wilbur Turner as secretary and treasurer. It is probable that Mr. Turner will move to Richmond soon to make his home here on account of his duties in the new faVlory. Mr. Kemper is also the owner of the i Richmond Furniture Manufacturing company, which manufactures. collapsable cupboards and wardrobes, and this factory has been so crowded with work that it is thought that enough contracts can be given over to the new ' company to enable it to start busiI ness with a full force. It was the idea of Mr. Kemper to move the factory to Kokomo on account of inadequate fire protection here and also because of a very flattering offer for the incorporation of the new factory, but the plan was abandoned. Easy Way to Kill Moles. An excellent way to exterminate moles is as follows: Procure a small can of calcium carbide, which can be purchased from an automobile or bicycle dealer, open the hole where the mole has been digging and place some of the carbide in it. Pour two or three gallons of water into the hole and close j up the opening. In about fifteen or twenty minutes open the hole and immediately Ignite the gas formed. Be careful in lighting the gas. A gas lighter or a match placed in the end of a lona stick should be used. The gas will burn for a few seconds and then it will back fire in the hole. There will be no more trouble from the mole.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11. Edna Good rich, the actress and one time wife of Nat Goodwin, on her return from a three months trip abroad confirmed the report that she is to wed an English Duke, but declined to name him. Miss Goodrich brought with her on the lmperator a pearl necklace worth $20,000 and a Franch bull dog called Fraizette, both gifts of the Duke. It requires more than a century for a cedar tree to grow large enough to yield a thirty foot telephone pole. The eucalyptus will attain a larger growth in thirty years, and its wood is quite as lasting.
