On Twelfth street near the junction of Washington street a col lision nearly occurred between a mo torcycle and an automobile Sunday. Many of the drivers of the automo biles fail to blow their horns when there is danger. Children playing in the streets have been endangered. A city ordinance fixes the maximum sped of autos in the city at eight miles an hour. Residents are com plaining of the chauffeurs allowing exhausts from the engines, which makes unnecessary noise. .

The varying climatic condi tions of the United States and Can ada, from El Paso, Texas, on the South, to Edmonton, Alberta, on the North, and from Atlantic City - on the East to Portland, Ore., on the West, afford a severe test. Officials and citizens t alike, in over 250 cities of the United States and Canada . recommend Bitulthie pave ment, where this class of pavement has been in use and the number of yards laid and contracted for has in creased at a phenommal rate during a period of ten years. Cambridge, Mass., an extreme Eastern city, shows an increase of approximately 110,000 square yards since the year 1901, and Portland, Ore., 'an extreme Western city shows an increase of 1,500,000 square yards in a like period. Throughout the United States tts progression of a city can almost be determined by the use of Bitulithic pavement. Information gathered from city officials and unprejudiced busi ness men in the various cities con cerning Bitulithic pavement, entitles it to first consideration because of its many admirable qualities. The Tarantula. " The sting of the tarantula (a name derived from Taranto, a town In Italy), the most venomous of spiders,' was-popularly supposed to produce a disease called tarantism. which could be cured only by music, or dancing, and the dance wbjcb .cured it was called tarantella. You can see the peasants dance the tarantella now. but without waiting for spider bites. - A Surprise BV MARTIN BRADFORD " Ready Made. Heck Has your wife made her will? Peck No; she's merely developed it. Boston Transcript. Made Cubans Sit Up. When President Taft told Cuban revolutionists that he had an army of occupation ready to sail, they con cluded to be good. The next time an American army lands in Cuba, permanent barracks will be construct ed and the stars and stripes will per manently enhance the beauty of Cu ban scenery. .1 am a college professor and add to my income by lectures on astronomy. One November day I started to walk from the .town of A., where I had Just given a lecture, to the town of B.. where I was to give one that night. The weather was Indian summer and delightful. Some of the trees were late in shedding their leaves, and the woods were here. and there still decorated with patches of scarlet, brown and deep green. On emerging from a cut through which the wood ran I saw a man walking abend of me. I don't mind a companion now and then in my walks, so I hasiened my pace and caught up with him. I fonnd him to be about thirty years old, dressed in shabby gen teel clothes and of an intellectual cast of countenance. I addressed him, speaking of the beauty of the scenery, the autumnal glow and the invigorat ing atmosphere. He responded appre ciatively. After chatting awhile on general top ics be asked me where I was going, and my purpose to give a lecture that night at B. on astronomy came out He said that he had always had a de sire to know something on that sub ject and regretted that bis education had been neglected, for if it had not been he would certainly have devoted some time to the study of the stars. Would t tell him something about them? It occurred to me that this would be a good opportunity to rehearse my' lec ture. My subject was to be, "The So lar System." and. beginning with the central orb. I gave Us dimensions and weight and then passed to the plauets in their order of distance from it. end ing with an account of the discovery of the farthest. Neptune, by means of the perturbations of Uranus, then supposed to be the most distant satel lite of the sun. My companion seem ed greatly interested in this marvel ous power of a man to reach out into space and take cognizance of a world invisible to the unaided eye and greed ily absorbed all I told him, though, be ing expected to lecture to a popular audience, I did not enter upon the marvelous development of knowledge of the constitutional ingredients of our system with the interpretation of the lines on the spectrum. In other words, I contented myself with stating the simplest truths known half a century ago and within the grasp of ordinary intellects. Now and again in his comments on the information I gave him my com panion astonished me by an observa tion indicating a natural aptitude for a subject of which he was ignorant. He wondered how the heat of the sun could pass through realms of space in finitely cold without being lost. He asked if we were sure that Neptune was the most distant planet of our sys tem. These and other points he sug gested convinced me that if he were uneducated he at least possessed an original or at least an inquiring mind. While we were conversing I felt a giddiness to which I am subject and which is always followed by a disabili ty for either hours or days. My com panion kindly guided me to a farm house beside the road and, ministered to my wants. I told him that I was very much troubled at the prospect of not being able to keep my engagement to lecture, and in order to help me out at the difficulty, since be was going to B., he offered to call on the manager of the course and explain my unfortunate position. 1 told him to say that past experience bad taught me that I would not be able to lecture the same night even if I were able to get to B.. but the lecture might be put off till the next evening or such time as I had recover ed. He promised to bear my message, but put a damper on my anticipations by asking for a small loan. I gave him what he asked. In the course .of a few hours I fell so much better that I made a bargain with the farmer with whom I was lodged to bitch up a team and drive me into B. I would reach the town too late for the lecture, but that would have been postponed anyway. On driviug into B.. which I reached about half an hour after the hour set for the lecture. I was surprised to see the hall in which it was to be given illuminated. I asked the farmer to pull up. I got out and entered the hall. To say I was astonished coneys little idea of my condition. There on the rostrum was theman who had taken my message, speaking easily and' gracefully on the solar system. In short, be was delivering my lecture, but so much" more easily and graceful ly than 1 could have done it, so en riched with enlertaining facts and with so much poetic inspiration, that 1 sank into a back seat and listeoed Ipellbound. No one present had ever seen me. The man had palmed himself off for me and was speaking for me far better lhan I could have spoken for myself. When he came out 1 joined him. He felt very uneasy and drew me aside as quickly as possible to tell me that lie had not been paid for the lecture and had no idea of perpetrating a swindle. j - He turned ont to be an Oxford grad uate who had come to America and got run down. I took him with me to my college and succeeded in getting him a chair which for awhile he filled ably. But there was a screw loose in him. . One day he disappeared, and 1 never heard from bim again. Cracking a Nut, The force required to crush an ordi nary nut. such as one too often sees cracked between the back teeth, has been shown to be equal to a weight of more than 110 avoirdupois pounds di rectly applied. Connecticut, Connecticut, a name so baffling to foreigners, is Indian and means "land on a long tidal river." The Indian form of it is Quia neh-tukquet. In some of the early records it is spelled Quinetuckquet. Their Use. "What is the object of repeating rifles?" "Of course, to make every shot tell." Baltimore American.
