i EXjCXTXNO AUTO RIDE
'CHICAGO, Mar. 10.-A despatch
to the Tribune from Saginaw, Mich.,
tayi:
Fifty miles in an automobile over
honey combed and melting let that
threatened to give way every foot of
the lait IS miles, wai the trilling ex
perience of Edward Dean Saginaw
and John Milwlse, an old time pilot
of Sebewalng who made a seven-hour
trip from the latter place over Sagi
naw Bay and up the river to thii city.
Leaving , Sebewalng In twelve
horiepower machine, the traveler!
had exhilarating iport for 20 miles.
Then they became lost and but for a
compass which the old pilot found In
hit pocket there ii no telling where
they would haye landed. They were
out of night of nd and many miles
out on the bay.
' They encountered numeroua Ice
jami and mow drifts twenty feet
high. Frequently they bridged
chasms with frail planks, and often
theie cracks and drift compelled
wide detoura.
"The real excitement, however,
"said pean." came after we left Bay
City, up the bay. The honeycombed
Ice cracked all the way. There was
open water on both aides of us much
of the way and we were powerless
to reach short"
For Dlaeases of the Bkln,
Nearly all diseases of the skin such
as ecaema, tetter, aalt rheum and bar
bers' Itch, art characterized by an in
tense itching and smarting, which
often makes lift burden and dis
turbs tleep and rest Quick relief
may be had by applying Chamber
lain'i Salvt. It allays tht itching and
smarting almost Instantly. Many
cases have been cured by its use. For
sale by Frank Hart and leading drug
I ate.
, 4 A HARD FALL.
mmmmm
Jacob H. Schiff, on the way to
Egypt on the Caronia, was criticising,
in the smoker room, the tenor singing
of a young man who gave, alt by him
elf, a little musicale every night after
dinner.
"With a voice like that," said Mr.
Schiff, "one is apt to meet with ex
traordinary experiences. I have a
friend with a voice like that, young
broker. For his Christmas holidays
my friend made a little tour of Eng
land, visiting many quaint old houses,
many picturesque churches.
"One Sunday he went to church In
Salem or Gloucester or some such
place, and lifted up his tenor voice in
the hymns and responses with a favor
and force that made the congregation
atare. ,
"Pleased with the attention he at
tracted, my friend threw back his
head, puffed out his chest, and, aban
doning the last vestige of restraint,
sang with all his might and main, A
high note was approaching. He col
lected his powers to meet it. They
were staring now well, he would
give them something to stare for.
What a glorious thing this congrega
tional singing was. ' He must have
more of it. Every Sunday, on jhls
return to New York !
A heavy hand fell on his shoulder.
He. turned with a start, and saw the
sexton, an old, bent man, glowering
at him. ' ' 1
" 'Here, young feller, hold yer
noise,' said the sexton, In a wheezy
whisper audible all over the building.
'We pay people to do that here.' "
A GREAT SMOKER.
A Fittsburg millionalr, said at a
dinner: '
"I lunched with Sir Thomas Lip
ton at the Ghezireh Falace in Cairo
just before he set out for his tea
plantation In Ceylon; where the ex
Empress Eugenie was to visit him.
"When tht coffee and Tarragone
came on, I opened my gold cast and
offered Sir Thomas a beautiful aro
matic cigarette fresh from the fact
ory down the street.
" 'No, thank you,' said he. 'I am,
with one possible exception, the big
gest smoker in the world, butl never
smoke cigars nor cigarettes.'
" 'What do you smoker said I.
" 'Bacon,' he answered."
NOT AN IDEAL JUROR.
During the selection of the Thaw
jurors, Martin W. Littleton, the bril
liant defender of the young million
air told at luncheon a story about a
juryman,
"It was In the far West," he said,
"in the distant days before our west
ern percentage of illiteracy had fallen
to be the lowest in the world.
"A juror had been selected in a
murder trial, and they were about to
swear him In, when the judges, to be
on the safe side, bethought himself
to say to the man:
" 'I trust, sir, you fully understand
the duties and responsibilities of a
hirer?
" 'I'm a plain chap, and I believe in
being fair to all, I don't go by what
the lawyers say, and I don't go by
what the judge says; but I look care
fully at the prisoner in the dock, and
I say to myself: 'He must have done
something or he wouldn't be here;"
so 1 bring 'em ail in guilty.' "
GETTING ROUND IT.
A Chicago physician said the other
day of the late Dr. Nicholas Senn, the
celebrated surgeon:
"I studied under Dr. Senn when he
was professor of surgery at Rush
Medical College. I remember how,
one day, he asked me a question that
I did not know, and, in order to hide
my ignorance, I gave an ambiguous
answer. - ,
"Dr. Senn smiled.
" He said I reminded him of a
schoolboy, taking a written examina
tion in history, came to the question:
" 'Which was the greatest general,
Cnesar or Hannibal?'
''The boy answered this question
as follows:
- " 'If we consider who Caesar and
Hannibal were, and ask ourselves
which of them was the greatest, we
must unhesitatingly answer in the af
firmative. " , i
