CAPTAIN SAM BRADY AND HIS
FAMOUS LEAP
Capt. Sam Brady was a member of
a lighting family wliieli made history
on the I'eimsylvania border during the
Indian wars after the- Revolution
Captain Brady's greatest exploit took
place in Ohio. He had hern captured
hy the Indians aftil carried to tlie San
dusky Towns, headquarters for all the
Ohio tribes, where the savages pre
lared to burn hlra at the stake.
He was stripped, hound to a post
und slow fires kindled around lilm, for
the Indians hated him so much that
they wished to torture him as long as
possible. Brady was a powerful man
and he strained at his letters until
they were loosened slightly. Then
with a final effort he snapped the last
bond, leaped across the barrier oi
flame and, seizing a squaw, pitched
Iter Into the fire.
Before the Indians could recover
from their surprise, the scout escaped
from the village and plunged Into the
woods, hotly pursued by hundreds of
savages. Finally he came to the
Cuyahoga river, near the present site
of Kent In Portage county.
At this place the river flowed be
tween steep, rocky banks. 21! feet
ficross from side to side. The scout
was trapped. There was no other place
for miles up and down the river where
he could ford It. The Indians were
closing In on him and his only chance
of escape was to try to leap across the
chasm.
Brady could hear the savages yell
Ing In the woods only a short distance
away as he ran back toward thetn to
get a good start. Then turning, he
sped for the brink and putting all his
failing strength Into a final spurt, he
snrane for the opposite cliff. Ills
jump wag a little short and he struck
the bank a few feet below the edge.
The Indians stopped In amazement
then as the scout scrambled up over
the edge, they opened lire.
They wounded hlui In the leg, delay
Ing hla flight, and In a short time were
on his heels again. He came to a lake
and plunged In. Stooping beneath the
broad pads of a water Illy, he breathed
through a hollow reed while the sav
ages hunted In vain on the shores of
the lake. They found his bloody trail
to the water's edge and. believing that
he hart drowned rather-than be cap
tured again, gave up the chase.
Soon afterward Brady reached Fort
Pitt In safety. He had many more
thrilling adventure before his death
on Christmas day, 17P', but his 2J foot
leap arns the Cuyahoga wis tb
ireatest feat of all.

FOOD AND LABOR ECONOMIES.
We, of necessity, do much planning
to get a dollar's worth of food from
the dollar ex
pended. X o w,
dinners of func
tion do not ex
ceed five courses,
while in the home
a four-course din
ner is sulliciontbv
elaborate to suit
the most fastidious. Many clever
ideas sprung up during the press of
war which are too line to be ever
given up. Among these Is the plate
dinner served in so many restaurants.
Meat and vegetables side by side in
one receptacle, which reduces the
work of serving and dish washing.
In the home such dishes as can he
cooked and served with the main
course in one. disli have become very
popular.
The serving table or wheeled tray
now appears with three stories, so the
mindless home may have served the
entire dinner Willi very few steps.
The soaring of linen lias brought us
to bare tables with doileys and run
ners, which saves us Jaumlry bills and
much work. The oilcloth table sets
have been a wonderful blessing in
many families and the use of the pa
per napkin Is not to be despised.
Living quarters have been reduced
until the living room and dining room
In many apartments must of necessity
be one. The gate leg table which may
be pushed back against the wall when
not in use or can serve as the library
table when not dining; with screens to
use in the room to give some privacy;
a couch by day will be the sleeping
quarters at night; all add to the com
fort. While we are all working to simplify
our mode of living to give us more
time to do the things worth while, let
lis at this season do away with half
or more of the bric-a-brac, pictures
and other things which are only a
weariness to the flesh. In this way
by changing about in spring ami fall
we will enjoy and appreciate each
piece and picture more fully.
A home to be comfortable and home
like need pot be crowded with things;
the things we ile and enjoy are the
only necessary furnishings, and the
more space around them the more
comfort ami enjovment we will htv
"Hell's Kitchen" on the Salton Sea
This qunint house Is aptly named and decorated, fur It stands upon the
top of an old volcano and Is 200 feet below sea level. It Is the dwelling of

The Salton sea Is the bed of an ancient "marine lake" In Riverside and San

The Spring Straw Hat.
All winter long man wears a hat
that Is easy and comfortable a
friendly, slouchy, well-worn sort of
thing that he can pull down over his
ears when the wind blows or throw In
to the air at a football game. It's
just the sort of clothing a man ought
to wear, not tyrannical but compan
ionable. And then along-comes spring.
In the spring, say the poets, the spirit
of man breaks Its bonds. A fellow
feels restless and Indomitable, fit for
anything and free as the wind. He
brooks no restrain', not he. He looks
upon his good old cap or hat and de
cides he ought to buy another. And
he does. He goes and gets himself
a straw hat a stiff, uncomfortable,
unreliable sort of thing that is faith
less to every passing breeze. A man
can't roll It up and put It In his
pocket, he can't throw It Into the air,
he can't pull It down over his ears,
he can't do anything with It except
wear It daintily and carefully, until
the time comes to smash It In the
autumn and go back to the old cloth
bat. And that's the best proof of the
madness of spring not love, not
blooming flowers, but the new straw
that leaves a red mark on n fel
forehead. San Francisco Ca!U
SURVIVED STORM AT SAMOA
Major General Lejeune One of the
American Sailors Who Cam
Safely Through Hurricane.
Secretary Kdwln Iienby of the navy
Is a fan ttn the history of that branch
of the service and never misses an
opportunity to expatiate on Its glories.
He was speaking at a Navy league
dinner not long ago and vividly de
scribed the events as they occurred
when. In 18-SIi, a hurricane caught
three of our ships, three German ships
and one flying the British flag In the
harbor at Apia, Samoa, and sank them
all except the Britisher, which man
aged to get to sea.
He told how the American ships
were battered to pieces on the rocks,
how the Vandalia sank and her
crew rode out the storm In the rig
glng which still protruded from the
water.
Three seats down the fable from
Mr. !enby sat Major General John
A. Lejeune, commandant of marines.
The secretary of the navy did not
know at the time that Gen. Lejeune,
then a navul cadet, was one of the
lads who hung on to the rigging of
the Vandalia through the duration of
the storm.
