Not long ago a man of fame
From Danbury to South Norwalk came.
He made his boast that he could ride .
A bicycle, if he only tried.
The bike was brought, a cycle real.
Composed of rubber, wood and steel.
Jehn mounted it with careless air ‘
When the beast began to plunge and rear,
And its coasting circle round and round,
Soon sent John sprawling on the ground.
By pets and threats at later date
He got the pesky critter straight
The pedals move, the courser springs
Like lightning speed the rolling ring
And gathering crowds, with eager eyes
And shouts, pursue him as he flies!
“Clear the track,” they hear him cry
As he swung his arms and seemed to fly.
The trembling hills confessed their fright,
The wood nymphs started at the sight,
The tramps. now filled with fright and ire,
For safety to the woods retire.
To guide the thing John vainly tries
While thus he does soliloquize,
“You need not squirm and wiggle so,
I Wlll ride you. you have got to go
Or your homely carcass I will wreck;!
I will conquer you or break my neck.”
But the pesky thing. for lack of sense,
Skipped the gutter and jumped the fence.
Of coasting “Body” has his fill!
And is new content to drive the quill.

Uncle Sam acquired some new terri-

It was not acquired by

pushed it} up from the depths of the

New. Jersey is gradually losing terri-
tory along the coast, while in other re-
gions new land: is being added to the
area of the' United States. But the
usual process i'slslow.
Once in awhile'a' new island is lifted
suddenly out of the sea. by volcanic
action, and this,- practically, is what
occurred off the" coast of California,
when about thirty-fiv'ethousand square
yards of rock was added to one of the
Santa Barbara islands with a. sudden-
ness that surprised the people living on
the island.
The Santa. Barbara group of islands
lies about sixty miles off the coast of
California, in about the latitude of Los
Angeles. The island of San Miguel, to
which the new island has been added,
is one of the smaller islands, and is
owned by Capt. W. G. Waters, who has
a. big sheep ranch on it. The only peo-
ple living on the island are Capt. Wat-
ers and his sheep herders and laborers.
Capt. Waters was on the island when
the' earthquake, eruption, or whatever
it was, occurred. He took the infor-
mation to the mainland, and the San
Francisco Examiner sent a correspond- '
cut to San Miguel to get all the facts
and some pictures of the new territory
of the United States.
On the night when the disturbance
occurred he was sitting in his house
reading. He felt the earth shiver, but;
ns earthquakes are not uncommon
thereabouts, he took little notice of the
occurrence.
The next morning he started out
around the beach toward his boat-
housc to look for his sloop, which was
due from the mainland. When he
neared the harbor and the place where
his bonthouse should have been he had
to stop and rub his eyes because of the
remarkable appearance of the sur-
roundings.
The beach had disappeared, and
where a bay of placid water had been,
rose a. huge mass of broken cliffs. He
climbed up on the high ground over-
looking the bay, and there, on the
plateau, forty feet or more above the
waterline and three hundred feet in-
land, were the boathouse and sheep
corral which the previous evening had
been right on the water’s edge.
I On reaching the boathousc he found
'another surprise. The building stood
Aas firm as ever,,but whereas it had
,originully faced seaward it was now
Jturned almost completely around and
faced almost directly away from the
bay. . 1.5.3135: 21‘;- “‘:‘.A_«."”‘ _‘ ‘ . ._ W. “
He walk (1 outon the top of the new:
ly formed cliffs tOward the water, and
found the great mass of rock still trem-
bling and swaying. There was a, sound
of grinding and churning and every
now and then a chunk of rock would
settle a little. The mass was evident-
ly still adjusting itself in its new posi-
tion.°
The buoy to Which his sloop was
moored when in harbor was formerly
four hundred feet from the sandy
beach. Now it was about one hundred
feet from the abrupt face of the new
cliffs.
_ The new land thrust up from the sea
"ion mass of rock one thousand feet
long by three hundred feet wide. Its
appearance and the deductions drawn
from soundings and other observations
seem to show that the mass was
wrcnchedfrOm the basis of the island
and pushcdlupwnrd and shoreward.
While tli'c‘land has been elevated the
sea bottom‘ has been greatly de-
pressed, and7 in some places where for-
merly there was only six fathoms of
water no bottom could be found with
the lines available on the exploring
boat.
The new land presents a singular ap-
pearance. Long streamers of seaweed
hang from the faced the cliffs, and
shellfish of all kinds are clustered
about it.~ The surface of the rocks is
covered with marine. growths, includ-
ing lobsters, mussels,-crabs, large and
small fish of- various species, weeds and
flowers, and all the odd things usually
hidden from the sight of man on the
sea. bottom, or seen only in an aqua-
rium.
While Capt. Waters had“ gaineda. con-
siderable slice of real estate without
cost, there is a. feeling on the island
that the curious caper of' nature is
more comfortably interesting in“ scien-
tific folk living at a distance than to
residents on San Miguel.
An Interesting Bandit.
“Manuel Garcia was a. curious char-
acter,” said a Cuban gentleman in
speaking of the reported death of that
revolutionist. “He was 'more like a.
character in a novel than a. man living
in the nineteenth century. His home
Was the mountains and he led a. regular
bandit’s life, every now and then hold-
ing-up Spaniards on the road or carry-
ing off one of them and holding him
for ransom. He would write to a
Spanish planter, ‘send me five thousand
dollars or I shall "burn your house,’
and if the money was not forthcoming
he would carry his threat into execu-
tion. He would even write to govern-
mental officials, signing himself: ‘King
of the Mountains,’ and demanding trib-
ute. He never preyed on the native
Cubans, only on the Spaniards, :and
gave most of his money to the revolu-
tionary party to purchase arms.”

Resolution and Says the" People of
Missouri Can Care For Their
Friends—The Alcohol Bill.-
WASHINGTON. May 29. —-Almcst the sole
topic of conversation among the members
of the house was the St. Louis tornado.
The St. Louis members—Messrs. Cobb,
Bartholdt and Joy—and Mr. Murphy of
Illinois, who lives in East St. Louis. were
almost frantic with anxiety. They had
no news of their families and friends ex-
cept such as came to them through the
press dispatches. In the death lists they
recognized many whom they knew.
Mr. Bartholdt, whose family resides
within a block of Concordia hall in South
St. Louis which was razed to the ground,
was especially solicitous for news from his
family.
Chaplain Couden in his invocation re-
ferred feclingly to the sorrow and suffer-
ing in the grief stricken district.
Tents For St. Louis.
As soon as the journal had been read
Mr. Bartholdt (Rep, No.) asked unani-
mous Consent for the consideration of a
resolution directing the secretary of war
to place at the disposal of the mayors of
St. Louis and East St. Louis a sufficient
number of tents to afford temporary relief
to the homeless in those cities and to give
such other relief as might be proper, etc.
The resolution was passed.
The house agreed to the senate amend-
ment to the St. Louis tornado resolution,
which makes the resolution joint instead
of concurrent. It now goes to the presi-
dent.
In the Senate.
The St. Louis horror was the theme of
a touching and eloquent prayer by Rev.
Dr. Milburn, the blind chaplain cf the
senate, at the Opening of the session.
“0 God,” he prayed, “we stand aghast
at the awful tokens of thy poWer and
majesty. The earth is shaken and trem-
bles, and the foundations of the hills are
shaken.”
Divine mercy was invoked for the strick~
on city of St. Louis, succor for the maimed
and afflicted, strength and aid to those
ministering relief, and protection from
another visitation of divine wrath.
Whenthe bill relating to alcohol used
in the arts, etc, was received from the
house, Mr. Harris (Dem., Tenn.) an«
nounced that the finance committee had
anticipated its reception and had acted
favorably on it. and that later he would
ask for consideration for the measure.
The resolution passed by the house,
looking to the relief of sufferers at St.
Louis, reached the senate, and unanimous
consent was given to consider it. Senator
Vest expressed his dissent to the resolu-
tion, saying the people of Missouri and
St. Louis were able totake care of the
people, and that later reports had shown
that the first accounts of the terrible ca.-
lamity had been exaggerated. He said It
.woulldddo no harm to pass the resolution,
hows:-
that' the. state could take care of tlic peo-
ple. The rcsolutlon was changed from
copcllrrentjqjolnt and passed.
" Senator Hair'IE wits authorized by the
senate committee on finance to report the
alcohol bill as it passed the house without
amendment. The committee also decided
to get the bill up for consideration at the
earliest practicable time.

TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION WINS.
Judge ‘Vheeler Says the Interstate Act
Has Not Been Violated.
NEW YORK, May 29.——Judgc Hoyt H.
Wheeler in the United States circuit court
handed down a decision dismissing the
bill of complaint brought by the United
States government in the suit in equity
against the Joint Traffic association. He
held that under the sections of the inter.
state commerce law upon which the case
was brought action would not lie against
the association.
Judge Wheeler quotes section 5 of the
interstate law, which provides “that it
shall be unlawful for any common carrier
subject to the provisions of this act to en-
ter into any contract, agreement or com~
binatlon with any other common carrier
or carriers or the pooling of freights of
different and competing railroads, or to
divide between them the aggregate or net
proceeds of the earnings of such railroads,
or any portion thereof, and in any case of
an agreement for the pooling of freights
as aforesaid, each day of its continuance
shall be deemed a separate offense. ”
He also quotes section 1 of the act of
1800 against unlawful restraints and
monopolies, which provides: “Every con-
tract, combinatlpn in the form of trust or
otherwise, or conspiracy in restraint of
trade or commerce among the several
states, or with foreign nations, is hereby
declared illegal.”
The decision then continues: “The 32
railroad companies defendants immensely
engaged in competitive interstate com-
merce have made an arrangement forming
this Joint Traffic association, with a board
of nine managers, consisting of one each
from the Baltimore and Ohio, Chesapeake
~ and Ohio, Erie, Grand Trunk, Lackawan-
na. Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania, Vendor--
hilt and Wabasthystems, and with juris~
diction over competitive traffic which
passes to,'from ci- through the western
termini of the trunk lines.”

WHAT IT MEANS.
Norwalk ls Learning It—eLearnlng it
Fast—Proof Not Lacking.
Everybody has it.
That Tired Feeling.
Don’t know what it means;
Keeps you awake at night.
Destroys daily comfort.
'Wearies the body. Worries the mind.
’You would shake it off.
You would be healthful and strong.
So you can.
If you go at it right.
First learn what it means.
Some say it’s had blood.
Others say it’s a lazy liver.
They’re all wrong. ,
Tired feeling means tired Kidneys.
Just as lame back means Lame Kid-
neys.
And backache means kidney ache.
How do we know it? -
Because Dean’s Kidney Pills cure it.
And they are for kidneys only.
How can we prove it ?
Because Norwalk people say so.
Here is a case in pOiut.
Mrs. White wife of A. C. White the
batter. address No. 47 River street.
Mr. White says, “My wife took Dean's
Kidney Pills.”
“I‘ook them for backache.”
“Found them just as represented.”
“Is much improved.”
“Doan’s Kidney Pills did the work.”
“Got them at Hale’s drug store.”
Dean's Kidney Pills are for sale by all
dealers; price 50 cents, or mailed by
Foster—Milburn Co , Buffalo, N. Y..
sole agents for the United States.
For Itching Piles, irritation of the
genitals, or itching in any part of the
body, Doan’s Ointment is worth its
weight in gold. No matter how long-
standing the trouble, Doau’s Ointment
will not fail to give instant relief.
The Nicaragua Canal, "‘
The facts about the Nicaragua canal
should be kept in mind. The total
length of the waterway between the
two oceans is one hundred and sixty-
nine and a. half miles. Of this twenty-
six and a. half miles is to be cut off. The
cost is estimated at sixty-five million
dollars. This is about twice the cost
of the drainage canal in which Chicago
is interested. The nearest completed
work in the matter of cost and diffi-
culty to the Nicaragua canal is the
Welland canal in Canada, which is not
considered by any means a remarkable
piece of engineering work. If the 111-
inois canal and the Nicaragua canal are
completed a vessel can go from Chicago
to Japan without making the circuit
. of the earth—Kansas City Star.
Railways in China and Japan.
It seems very odd to us, with our ex-
cellent telegraph and railroad accom-
modations, to hear that there are thou-
sands of people in China who ' have
known nothing about ‘the war with
Japan. Reason for this can be found
in the fact that the total railway mile-
age of China. is but one hundred miles,
while Japan, one-tenth its size, has al-
most two thousand miles, of railroad.—
